Chapter 129 Venting for My Granddaughter
Seeing that the previously arrogant Madam Qin's face was constantly changing from blue to white, Princess Ning and the Second Lady looked at each other and couldn't help but curl the corners of their lips.
"Grandma, I don't know what crime my parents committed that caused my aunt to have them locked up. Their health is not very good, so I hope nothing happens to them."
Seeing that no one was busy paying attention to her and not daring to stand up from the ground, Xu Letie couldn't help but speak up to draw everyone's attention. She also mentioned her parents' health, trying to arouse her grandmother's sympathy.
She had checked when she went there just now. The maids guarding the door were all her aunt's people. It seemed that when she was not at home these few days, her parents had somehow made her aunt unhappy again. But no matter what happened, it was absolutely wrong for her to lock people up.
"I don't know who you learned this from, you just keep talking nonsense."
The old princess glanced at her indifferently, and seeing that she still looked unconvinced, she couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"Your mother fell into the toilet in the middle of the night yesterday, and your father broke his waist. In order to let them rest in the yard for two days and recuperate, I decided to lock up the yard to prevent them from running around. How come you guys are saying that someone wants to harm them?"
The old princess said a lot of words, but she still felt unsatisfied. She looked at the somewhat embarrassed Madam Qin and said sharply:
"You should know that he is my own son. How could I harm him? If your Qin family really loves your daughter, then I will be the one making the decision today. I will release him later. You can take him back to the Qin family and serve him well. Our Ning Wang Mansion is small and cannot afford to support this big Buddha..."
Why is he asking people to take their daughter back? Does Prince Ning's Mansion want to divorce his wife?
"What are you talking about, elder sister? My worthless daughter was able to marry into the Ning Palace and become your daughter-in-law because she had done great deeds in her previous life. She has such good fortune now. How can we let her down? You can treat her as your own child and discipline her as you like. We in the Pingnan Marquis Mansion will naturally not say a word..."
Old Madam Qin became anxious and interrupted quickly with a smile. She no longer had that aggressive look and her eyes were full of flattery.
You have to know that after the old marquis passed away, she had no other children and was alone in the Pingnan Marquis's Mansion.
Now the Pingnan Marquis and his wife were only tolerable to her on the surface, as for anything else, forget it.
If her daughter was really divorced and sent back home, the couple would probably kick both of them out on the first day.
Seeing that she had given in and dared not make any more noise, the old princess smiled with disdain, stopped looking at her, and turned her gaze back to Xu Letie.
"My Lord, the court doctor has examined the young master. He is not seriously injured, just a few scrapes. The court doctor applied some medicine powder and bandaged him. The nurse is waiting outside with him in her arms."
At this time, Nanny Lin walked back quickly, bowed to everyone in the room, and then quickly explained Xu Yuxuan's situation.
When everyone looked up, they saw that Xu Yuxuan had a bandage wrapped around his head, his hair was wet with sweat from crying, and he was lying listlessly on his wet nurse's shoulder.
"You came back just in time, so tell everyone how the young master fell and how he hit his head."
The old princess winked at Nanny Lin, who nodded without any hesitation and immediately told her everything about how she had seen Xu Letie pinch Xu Yuxuan and deliberately make him fall.
"You are talking nonsense! Grandmother, you must not listen to this old woman. She has bad intentions and must have been bribed to say this to slander your granddaughter..."
Xu Letie was anxious. She hadn't expected that what she had just done was so secretive and would be seen by others. Now it was spoken out in public. If it got out, her reputation would be completely ruined.
Originally, because of the incident with Prince Ning, her niece's marriage was affected. If her bad reputation spreads, which wealthy family would dare to marry her in the future?
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. Seeing that the old princess just looked at her coldly without saying a word, she quickly turned her gaze to her grandmother, Old Madam Qin, for help, hoping that she could say a few good words for her. She could not let such a reputation fall on a little girl like her.
"Tell me the truth, is it really you who did this as they say?"
Madam Qin's face was as dark as water, and her voice seemed to contain ice chips, which made Xu Letie so cold that she couldn't help but shrink her neck, and her eyes began to flicker.
Seeing her like this, the experienced and experienced Madam Qin had everything figured out and she almost fell over with anger.
This girl is really brave. She even dares to attack her own brother. If you still want to expect her to get married and help her brothers in the future, that is probably wishful thinking.
"Bring Xuan brother in and let us see."
The old princess was too lazy to watch them quarreling here. She would rather spend this time talking to her beloved granddaughter, so she waved to the wet nurse at the door.
"Lift up the clothes on his back and take a look. His good sister just used ruthless force on him."
What she meant was that she had also witnessed it with her own eyes. Even though Old Madam Qin had just reacted and wanted to help Xu Letie cover up a little and then punish her after returning, she had no choice but to shut her mouth after hearing this.
The wet nurse moved very quickly. She put Xu Yuxuan on the ground and lifted the clothes on his back. As expected, there was a large pinch mark on the child's smooth back. It was red and swollen with some bruises, which looked particularly obvious.
Now everyone's eyes fell on Xu Letie, and Old Madam Qin even wanted to slap her a few times on the spot to vent her anger.
"It's not me...it must be you..."
Xu Letie didn't dare to admit it and wanted to put the blame on the wet nurse, but was stopped by the old princess with a stern voice.
"Shut up! Do you think anyone can see through your little tricks? Come on, slap me in the face!"
Several sturdy old women came in in response. One of them held a bamboo stick as long as an arm in her hand. After coming in, she bowed to everyone, grabbed Xu Letie's arm, and started slapping her face.
