Mu Yigao did as he said, the next day he sent someone to deliver the Tianshan Snow Lotus.
Jian Jia had been ordered to wait at the entrance of the mansion. After she got the snow lotus, she happily prepared to go back home.
Coincidentally, Jian Jia passed by the backyard and met Du Bingxin.
Seeing that Jian Jia was so happy, Du Bingxin was puzzled. Seeing such an exquisite box in Jian Jia's hand, she asked, "What are you holding?"
Jian Jia knew that Du Bingxin and her young miss were not on good terms, and she really didn't want to answer her question, but she had no choice but to do so due to face. She also didn't want to cause trouble for her young miss, so she respectfully said, "The Tianshan Snow Lotus that young master Mu gave my young miss was just sent over."
As he said this, he opened the lid of the box for Du Bingxin to see.
"Oh ~" When Du Bingxin saw Jian Jia, she immediately thought of Du Mu Zhou. An unfavoured direct descendant girl was also suitable to be with Mu Ling Shao, she really didn't know the limits of the heavens.
Du Bingxin grabbed her handkerchief and returned to her room.
Du Bingxin quietly sat in her room, thinking. Seeing her, the bird knew that something had happened. After the others left, it took a cup of tea and asked, "Miss, what happened?"
The brocade bird was Du Bingxin's personal servant. Du Bingxin was five years old and had been serving her since she was young. She had the best understanding of her temperament and Du Bingxin trusted the brocade bird to tell her everything.
"Today, Mu Lingshao gave Du Mu Zhou a Sky Mountain Snow Lotus." Du Bingxin took the tea and continued, "What is Du MuZhou doing with the Tianshan Snow Lotus?"
"The snow lotus has the ability to detoxify poisons, could Du Mu Zhou have been poisoned?"
Du Bingxin shook her head. Du Mu Zhou had always been in the village, so he hadn't met anyone. After all, over the years, Han Mo Xiang hadn't thought of poisoning her.
However, it wasn't easy to find an opportunity, so how could Du Bingxin let it go so easily?
"Snowy Lotus of Tianshan …" "I remember that Second Madam gave me one back then, right?"
The golden sparrow nodded. It was true. Du Bingxin was very happy when she got it, because she didn't even have Du Ruanyu.
Du Bingxin curled her lips and said to the bird, "Go and hide my snow lotus. I'm going to the Second Madam's place."
The golden sparrow understood what Du Bing was thinking. It wanted to stop her, but decided against it. Du Mu Zhou's actions were too arrogant, and he wanted to suppress him!
In the afternoon, Du Mu Zhou was invited to the ancestral hall. Du Zhong, Han Mo Xiang, Third Aunt and the rest were all there. Du Bing Xin was crying on the ground.
Du Mu Zhou didn't know what Du Bing Xin was planning, but he became even more vigilant.
"Greetings to father, madam, and third concubine."
Just as Du Mu Zhou was about to get up after saluting, Du Zhong slammed the table and said, "Kneel."
Du Mu Zhou didn't know why he wanted her to kneel, but he didn't defy his father's orders and continued to kneel.
Seeing her calm expression, Du Zhong was in a trance. This little girl wasn't like this in the past.
"Admit what you did, or don't blame me for serving you under the family law."
Du Mu Zhou frowned. He didn't know what he had done to deserve the treatment of the family's laws.
"I didn't do anything. I don't know what my father was talking about." Du Mu Zhou's face was calm.
When Du Bingxin heard this, she cried even harder and choked with sobs, "Big sister … If you want... The Tianshan Snow Lotus can directly speak to her sister. Why must she … "What about stealing?"
When Jian Jia brought back the snow lotus, he told her about running into Du Bingxin. He didn't expect her to be so fast, so he thought of a way to deal with her, but this time, she really didn't find the right way.
"Steal? "My third sister joked. Although my mother left early and did not receive good tutelage, there's still a second wife. If you say it like that, then I would absolutely not dare to act the part."
If Du Mu Zhou really stole the snow lotus, then it would be because of her lack of understanding. Originally, she was the one who asked Du Bing Xin to help, but now, it seems like if she didn't help Du Mu Zhou, then she would have a share in the responsibility.
"Isn't it? When I met Jian Jia today, she was holding onto the snow lotus, and said that it was given to me by the little prince of Mu. I didn't suspect anything at the time, and when I went back, I wanted to take out my snow lotus to take a look, but mine is gone.
The more Du Bingxin cried, the more she felt uncomfortable. She stole a glance at Du Mu Zhou and saw that his face was calm, as if she hadn't heard what he had said.
"Woodboat, do you have anything to say?" Du Zhong glanced at Du Bingxin. To be honest, he didn't really believe what Du Bingxin had said. Although the Tianshan Snow Lotus was precious, it was still possible that Mu Lingshao had given it to Du Mu Zhou.
"There's no excuse for wanting to add this crime. Father, please enlighten me and return my daughter's innocence."
Du Mu Zhou spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, but Han Mo Xiang wanted to protect Du Mu Xin, and pretended to do so: "Old master, we are all family, there is no need to be so calculative. It's just a snow lotus, so it's fine if it is lost, and so is Bing Xin, is there a need for your big sister to steal your things? "She wants to make sure that we're all sisters who want to get it from you in the open. Without any proof, don't spout nonsense in the future."
Han Mo Xiang once again used the phrase "sister", but Du Mu Zhou sneered in his heart. Previously when Han Mo Xiang said this, she really thought that they were family, but now that she thought about it, it was because she was too stupid back then.
"Third sister has wronged me time and time again. Even if she's my own sister, she won't be able to take it. Father, please uphold justice for our daughter." Du Mu Zhou refused to budge. If she didn't give Du Bing Xin some face this time, she probably wouldn't be able to remember.
Du Bingxin had been bitten back by Du Muzhou, so she was extremely angry. Just as she wanted to say something, she was stopped by a look from Han Moxiang. However, Du Bingxin did not want to miss such a good opportunity.
"Father, your daughter didn't wrongly accuse big sister. Your daughter's snow lotus is truly gone." Du Bingxin's aggrieved look was truly pitiful.
"Oh, my snow lotus has become someone else's!"
Just as Du Bingxin was about to add fuel to the fire, Mu Lingshao suddenly appeared, holding a paper fan in his hand.
Mu Lingshao walked in front of Du Mu Zhou. He didn't care about Du Zhong sitting in front of her and directly helped her up with a gentle smile.
Du Mu Zhou raised his hand and smiled.
"Don't laugh so fake. Be happy, didn't I come to testify for you?" Mu Lingshao did not bother about Du Mu Zhou and directly said to Du Zhong, "Du Xiang Guo, I have indeed given you the Snow Lotus from the wooden boat. The third young miss wrongly accused the wooden boat for no reason, I hope you can treat it fairly."
Mu Lingshao's words were very direct. He knew that Du Mu Zhou wasn't highly regarded in the Du Family, but he still allowed Du Zhong to treat him fairly.
However, since the words had come to this point, he had to treat her fairly.
Just like this, Du Bingxin had been sentenced to half a month's imprisonment, and Du Mu Zhou had gained a sliver of prestige in the Residence of General.
