However, the old mistress was no longer in the mood to pay attention to the Madam Wang. Looking at the Buddha statue, her face sank.

"What's going on?"

The old mistress' face was limpid as fury was rising in her eyes.

But in the end, she was still a concubine. They were not considered people of the Prince An's Palace, so it was normal for them to not have the same thoughts as her.

But as for An Lingyi, although she was a bastard, she was also her granddaughter.

Yet, such a granddaughter had actually prepared a Buddha statue that was dripping with blood and tears on her birthday celebration. Taking out such an ominous thing, just what kind of plan did An Lingyi have in mind!?

All of the young madams and mistresses present also heard the exclamation of Madam Wang, and their gazes all fell upon the Buddha Statue.

When he saw that the Buddha statue was bleeding tears, he was extremely shocked and confused. His gaze towards An Lingyi also carried some other meaning.

An Lingyi's face became even more pale, and only dryly explained, "Grandmother, this is not mine, I also don't know why it would be like this."

Previously, when she said that the wedding gift wasn't hers, the madame's expression didn't change, but she didn't say anything.

However, Aunt Li jumped out at that time to speak up for her and said that she was a child. She purposely provoked the Old Mistress' curiosity, so she wanted to keep her mouth shut.

But now, who would believe what An Lingyi had said?

Aunt Li was frustrated. She never would have thought that words that helped her daughter to escape would cause An Lingyi to fall into such a dilemma. She wouldn't be able to say it even if she wanted to.

An Lingge saw the expression on both of their faces, and a smile appeared in her eyes that were deep and black.

However, on her face, there was a surprised look, as if she couldn't believe it. "Third Sister, even if you don't like your grandmother, you shouldn't have found something like this to make your grandmother unhappy."

As if by accident, An Lingge revealed her displeasure towards the Old Mistress in front of everyone, causing them to have a bad impression of her.

The Great Zhou Empire paid attention to filial piety, with the word filial piety being too great, An Lingyi, as the granddaughter of the old lady, was extremely dissatisfied with her seniors, and obviously did not respect the old lady, let alone being filial to her.

As for her intimate manner towards the madame, it was probably just a show for them to see.

These madams were all intelligent people, after hearing An Lingge's words, they had already changed their minds a total of eighteen times.

Hearing that, An Lingyi suddenly glared at An Lingge, "Don't speak nonsense! "I have always respected Grandmother, why would I intentionally look for this item to add to my bad luck?"

That's right, the madame's birthday had been marked by something like this. It was truly rather unlucky.

Wang had already come back to her senses. Perhaps it was because she was pregnant, but the previous two times she had almost given birth to a small child. Right now, she could not bear any fear.

After hearing what An Lingyi said, a sarcastic smile surfaced on her face, "Third Miss is saying that your wedding gift has been stolen by someone, that's why it appeared?"

The wedding gifts were all prepared by themselves. Who would care what others prepared?

Moreover, other than the storage room, the rest of the things in the Duke Palaces were managed by the Aunt Li. Who could sneak into An Lingyi's courtyard and not be noticed?

Even if others had such thoughts, they would not be able to do such a thing.

An Lingxue's eyes turned around, her delicate face revealing a hint of concern, "Third Sister, just apologize to Grandmother for the wrong actions. Grandmother has always been a magnanimous woman, she will definitely not take things to heart."

Her words convicted An Lingyi of a crime, and then flattered the madame, but she kept her words to a whisper. She looked like she had raised An Lingyi well, which was completely different from An Lingyi's appearance that had lost control of herself.

Only then did the ladies present look up to her. They felt that although the third branch young miss had a lower status and could not compare to the Prince An's daughter, it was still rare for her to have such an extraordinary demeanor.

The reason why she said those words at this time was to take advantage of An Lingyi.

She had used this trick before at Jingdu Academy, but at that time, An Lingge had stepped forward to stir things up and allowed her to scheme against him for no reason.

Now it was clear to An Lingge that she was going to deal with An Lingyi. As long as he loved her and stepped on her feet two more times, she could discredit An Lingyi and the manor would lose a person who was competing with her.

Once she completely stepped on him, it would be much easier to deal with An Lingge.

An Lingxue's eyes shone brightly, she looked like a good sister who was thinking for her little sister, who could guess what she was planning?

She pointed at An Lingge with a hand, and with an angry expression, she said, "I already said that this wedding gift was not prepared by me, yet you two want to settle the matter with me, could it be that you've colluded with me?"

After she finished speaking, her expression changed, her large eyes were filled with tears, her charming face immediately became weak, as though she was even weaker than An Lingxue.

"What I haven't done is I haven't done it. Grandmother, if you don't believe me, you can send someone to investigate and find out. My granddaughter does things with integrity and is not afraid of finding out anything fishy. However, there are some people who should not be flustered. "

In any case, this Buddha statue was prepared by An Lingge himself. As long as the old lady checks, she will definitely find out about it.

An Lingyi's almond-shaped eyes flashed, but her face had a righteous and inviolable expression.

Her words were aimed straight at An Lingge and An Lingxue, almost saying that it was the both of them framing her.

The old lady's face became even more unsightly, it was already unknown if a Buddha statue with tears and blood appeared on her birthday celebration. But if An Lingyi made such a ruckus, wouldn't it mean that others would know of the disagreement between the two sisters? They were making a joke for the outsiders to see, and had even lost face for Prince An's Palace!

Seeing her unfriendly expression, Aunt Li knew that her daughter had said the wrong thing, but now that An Lingyi was facing such a predicament, she could only find out clearly what happened. It was for her the best.

Thinking this way, the Aunt Li said eagerly, "Old madam, do not be angry, Yi Er did not speak straightforwardly, it is not because she suspects Eldest Miss and Second Miss, but because there is some misunderstanding. Maybe one of the servant girls made a mistake and got the matter wrong, that's why it happened, why not investigate it clearly and let you be at ease."

No matter how dissatisfied Aunt Li was with the Old Mistress, she had said those beautiful words for the Old Mistress' sake.

The old mistress thought for a moment before nodding. "Fine. I'll have someone investigate this and see what's going on."

An Lingyi and Aunt Li looked at each other, waiting for the old lady to investigate and find out how this slut escaped!
