Chapter 857 Completely Different Attitudes Toward Two Granddaughters
The delicate ink-colored inkstone fell to the floor, but it did not shatter like an ordinary inkstone.
However, due to the force of gravity, a small piece of it fell off, forming an ugly gap.
Lin Ning covered her mouth pretending to apologize, her eyelashes slightly drooping, hiding the cunning in her eyes: "I'm sorry, sister, I accidentally bumped into you... But, you actually broke grandpa's favorite inkstone! You
Do you know that this inkstone is grandpa’s favorite antique, and it was bought by dad at a high price from his old friend? Grandpa is usually reluctant to show it to others, but I didn’t expect you, you actually..."
Ruan Bai looked at the broken inkstone, his eyelids twitched heavily, and a very bad premonition surged through his heart.
Although she had never seen that small inkstone, she knew it was worth a lot just by looking at its complicated and gorgeous appearance. But now it was lying incomplete and alone on the floor, making people sigh with regret.
It happened that at this moment, Mrs. Lin supported Mr. Lin and walked into the study.
Sensing the oppressive atmosphere in the study, Mr. Lin's majestic voice sounded: "What's wrong?"
Lin Ning hurriedly ran to Mr. Lin, deliberately pointed at the broken inkstone, and said with "heartbroken": "Grandpa, your sister accidentally broke your inkstone, but she didn't mean it, please don't
Blame her..."
Mr. Lin's eyes suddenly fell on the broken inkstone lying alone on the floor, and a trace of uncontrollable anger flashed in his brown eyes.
Because of his anger, the old man had two obvious veins beating on his temples.
His sharp gaze was directed at Ruan Bai: "Xiao Bai, why did the inkstone break for no reason? Why are you so careless?"
Old Mrs. Lin supported Mr. Lin and said in a sarcastic voice: "He is really a troublemaker. Our old Lin has treasured this inkstone for so many years. I would not want to touch it. I didn't expect you to break it. It's so big."
You are such a person, why do you act so frivolously?"
Mr. Lin knelt down with heartache, smashed the inkstone into pieces, picked them up piece by piece, and put them into his own hands with pity.
He looked very sad, and you could even see that the old man's usually upright body was trembling slightly, and even his back was a little rickety.
Ruan Bai did not defend himself, but looked at his grandfather treating the broken inkstone like a treasure, and his heart ached slightly.
She gave Lin Ning a fierce look, but her innocent and proud expression made Ruan Bai couldn't help but sneer.
This Lin Ning really did everything he could to frame her. It was really chilling that he could use such dirty tricks.
But this moment is not the time to argue about what is right and what is wrong.
Ruan Bai lowered his head quietly, squatted down slowly, and helped his grandfather pick up the broken inkstone: "Grandpa, it's my fault. I did break the inkstone. No matter what, I will not shirk responsibility."
.sorry."
It is very difficult for Mr. Lin to find a moment when he can challenge Ruan Bai. How could he let this opportunity pass easily?
She immediately wrinkled her old face and scolded her harshly: "Old Lin, I told her not to come to our house. You see, there will definitely be no good things happening between us. She came to visit you a while ago, and your
My asthma has relapsed; a while ago she said she would come over to give us supplements, but after taking those so-called supplements, my blood pressure soared and I almost went to the hospital; this time she came to our house and broke your antique inkstone again.
Do you think this girl is unlucky? Do you think she came specifically to harm our family?"
Ruan Bai bit his lower lip, his pretty face pale.
Even though she knew that her grandma was displeased with her, when her harsh words and words of criticism fell on her, she still couldn't help but feel sore in her eyes, and felt an inexplicable aggrieved urge to cry.
Mr. Lin glared angrily and scolded Mrs. Lin: "What do you, old woman, say about our eldest granddaughter? The eldest granddaughter came to visit our old couple because of her filial piety. How come you have turned it into something evil? Then
The first time she came to visit me, she came here specially because she heard that I had a relapse of asthma. I am not in good health, what does it have to do with her? Also, your blood pressure is already high, and your granddaughter brought you a rare medicine from abroad.
But you didn’t like the anti-hypertensive tea at all and insisted on eating the velvet antlers she brought me. At that time, Xiaobai also specifically told me that you couldn’t eat too much supplements like velvet antler, but you were so greedy that you almost ended up in the hospital.
Who is to blame? Also, although this inkstone is precious, my eldest granddaughter is my priceless treasure. Can this thing be compared with others?"
Mr. Lin's protection made Ruan Bai's gloomy mood instantly brighter.
She choked up and said: "Grandpa, thank you. It was indeed my mistake this time, but please rest assured that since I broke the inkstone, I will definitely repair it as before. Please trust me!"
Lin Ning's face was extremely ugly. She didn't expect that Mr. Lin was still defending this bitch at this time. She was really angry to death.
Isn't that inkstone his most precious thing?
I remember that she touched it in the study and was severely scolded by her grandfather. Ruan Bai broke the inkstone but did not hear the scolding. The old man's attitude towards his two granddaughters was also...
Too different?
Sure enough, it’s the difference between a biological granddaughter and an adopted granddaughter, yes!
Mrs. Lin, on the other hand, was choked and speechless by her wife. She had a gloomy old face, just like an angry old grandma.
"Hmph, this inkstone is a fine antique that has been passed down for hundreds of years. No one can repair its cracks. What do you think about repairing the dishes? Since you don't feel bad, old man, then the inkstone deserves to be broken! Don't do it again in the future.
I'm so careless in front of you, talking about your broken inkstone all day long! Ningning, let's go, I'm too lazy to pay attention to this stubborn guy!"
Mrs. Lin snorted coldly, turned around in anger, pulled Lin Ning, and left the study angrily.
"Grandma, don't be angry with your sister. In fact, she really didn't mean it..." In the study room, Lin Ning's voice deliberately pleading for her, was sarcastic in Ruan Bai's ears.
"Okay, don't intercede for her. Grandma knows that you have a kind nature. She will have less contact with your sister in the future. Maybe the bad luck she brings will be on you next time..." Mrs. Lin was dissatisfied.
sound.
Lin Ning held Old Mrs. Lin's arm. Before leaving, she glanced at Ruan Bai proudly, but then she met her bright and insightful eyes.
The naked sarcasm in her eyes, as well as the bone-chilling chill, actually made her shiver uncontrollably.
But then she thought, Mo Yan was broken in Ruan Bai's hands anyway, and she was the most direct culprit. What on earth was she afraid of?
