The words that came out of the mouth of a half-grown child were exceptionally spicy. It was truly shocking.

Old Shen's face couldn't help changing, Shen Lian was still screaming and cursing. Madam Feng looked at the crazed Shu girl. Thinking of what her daughter had just said, she fearfully hugged her. She looked at her mother-in-law and saw the surprise in her eyes. Xiu Ying's eyes flashed as she said to Shen Lian, "I won't die. If you have the ability to push me down the fake mountain again, then do you want to push me down the lake!?"

"You deserve to die! If you scratch my face, I won't let you go! You won't be so lucky as to have people protecting you everyday! " Shen Lian was indeed agitated to the point that she could not speak properly.

Old Madam Shen was so shocked that she slammed her hand on the table. The jade bracelet on her wrist slammed into the corner of the table, shattering into two pieces before falling to the ground and shattering into pieces. "Shut up!"

Everyone looked at the broken bracelet on the floor, their eyebrows jumping. The old lady was truly angry.

Shen Lian regained her senses, she recalled what she scolded and her face turned pale. Xiu Ying hugged Madam Feng's waist, silently pulling at the corner of her mouth and laughing.

It was fortunate that Shen Lian was only seven years old now, she had revealed her true nature just by being agitated. If she was a bit older, she wouldn't have gotten it so easily.

Old Madam Shen's gaze was extremely sharp as she looked at the granddaughter that was born in a concubine.

Just now, this granddaughter wasn't like this when she was talking to her. She was delicate and weak, always calling her grandmother. She was scared, and the moment she talked about her youngest son falling down, she began to tremble. It had only been a short while, yet her every word was asking her eldest granddaughter to die, a seven-year-old child … Why would he say such vicious words? It was as if he really wanted his granddaughter to die.

Although Old Madam Shen was old, that didn't mean that she was stupid.

She wanted to punish Xiu Ying, but she also felt sorry for her youngest son. She also thought that this child was the most honest, so how could she have thought that he would be lying? As she thought about it, her gaze landed on Shen Lian's body, the words that the little girl had said earlier were true, her eyes immediately became colder, making her face, which had experienced countless years of baptism, seem so imposing that no one dared to look at her.

"Tie this girl up and interrogate her properly!"

As soon as the sentence ended, Mama Qi stepped forward. The little girl was already slumped on the ground. When she was lifted up, she remembered to beg for mercy.

The sound of the little girl calling for help slowly faded away. Shen Lian knew that she had caused a huge disaster and was trembling in fear. This time, it wasn't an act, it was true fear.

When Madam Feng saw this situation, she felt a lingering fear. If it wasn't because her daughter was wronged and had lost her sense of propriety, then it was because her daughter was suffering. Thinking of the heartless words of the concubine, her gentle face sunk as well, and her eyes became cold and threatening.

"Mother." Madam Feng cried out in a low voice, "Although Ying'er is sometimes mischievous, you absolutely cannot use her doting Third Uncle to tease her, much less cause her to fall down the fake mountain. This time, mother should have asked clearly, and Ying'er should still be innocent. "

She had said these words a few times just now. She couldn't stand her mother-in-law praising her brother-in-law, and she was so angry that she wanted to punish her daughter if she trusted him. Even though she was the one in charge of this family, she wasn't powerful enough to suppress her mother-in-law, so the Feng family also hated her for being useless.

Old Man Shen's face turned hot when he heard his daughter-in-law's words. She knew that she had been untrusting just now, but that was also out of anger. And to this eldest daughter-in-law of hers … He was always less confident.

"I'll find out later. I was wrong about little girl Ying Ying. I apologize to her." Old Madam Shen's tone softened when she saw that her eldest granddaughter was still hugging her mother.

Madam Feng shook her head, "It's all your fault. Someone was just scheming. It was also your daughter-in-law's fault that she didn't teach you well."

Shen Lian's face paled when she heard what her mother said. Her mother will not let her off so easily. This meant that she wanted her grandmother to not be too biased.

She looked nervously at Old Lady Shen, her eyes full of pleading. Old Madam Shen looked at her doting second granddaughter and thought of her niece's aunt. In the end, she gritted her teeth and said, "As long as you can find out what you need to do, you can do it."

Madam Feng finally obtained what she wanted and her expression softened. She nodded.

It wasn't that she couldn't take advantage of Shen Lian's concubine, but that Shen Lian's concubine had a special background. She was Old Madam Shen's own niece, and if she didn't take advantage of her, she would have to marry Master Shen. After entering, this cousin Cui of Master Shen's, Master Cui Mei, could only be his concubine. She forced Old Lady Shen to speak because she was afraid that she would try to be selfish again, so she decided to let Shen Lian off lightly.

Thinking about the mother and son pair of the Shen family, Lady Feng sneered in her heart. So what? They would always owe her as long as she was in the family, and they would always have to consider their actions.

Shen Lian knew that she had really died. She stood there in a daze and even forgot about the pain on her face. Xiu Ying's new dress had also been covered in dust, and her bun had also scattered. She was now in a very sorry state, not even looking like a Shangguan girl at all.

Moments later, Mama Qi came back. The little girl was indeed telling the truth. It was indeed not Xiu Ying who was messing with the Third Master. It was the Second Miss who was playing with the young lady.

Although there was still the suspicion of avoiding important matters, these words were enough.

Old Madam Feng had long since been made to sit down and wait. At this moment, she leisurely sipped her tea and said, "That bold little girl dared to sell off twenty plates. As for taking pity on the little girl, I'll punish her as my mother previously said. "Oh, it's my fault that I'm unable to enter the ancestral hall. I should just kneel outside. Uncle can wake up at any time, so I won't be able to wake up again."

"..." Grandmother! " Shen Lian cried out, tears in her eyes as she knelt on the ground.

Old Madam Shen had previously released her words in front of so many people, and now that she had wronged her granddaughter, she could only turn her head away from Shen Lian, whose eyes were filled with tears. She had to comfort her.

Very quickly, Shen Lian was led down by someone from the Feng family. Since this was the case, the Feng family did not want to stay here any longer. She stood up to leave, but when she went to pull Yu Ying away, Yin Xiu didn't move at all. The little girl raised her head and said, "Mother, I want to stay here and wait for third uncle to wake up."

Madam Feng looked at her daughter's fair face, those peach blossom eyes were very similar to her own. Looking at you now, with a glimmer of anticipation, her appearance made it clear that she couldn't refuse. She turned her head and saw the shock on her mother-in-law's face. After some hesitation, she said, "Your Third Uncle needs to rest. You will disturb him."

"Mother, don't worry. I will just quietly wait at the side." "Third uncle saved me. If it wasn't him, then perhaps it would be his daughter who was lying on the ground. His daughter should stay by his side and wait on him." When she saw her mother, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, she also wanted to stick by her side, but her third uncle was also very important to her.

In her previous life, her mother was bafflingly unwilling to move to the capital with everyone. Furthermore, she died when she was 14 years old. If it wasn't for her third uncle's help, her situation would have been even more miserable. Now that she was eight years old, she still had a lot of time to plan things out. Perhaps it could prevent her mother from dying early, so in the future, she would properly protect her mother. In her past life, she had been taken care of too much by her third uncle. Now that she had taken advantage of this opportunity, she would be able to repay some favors.

Madam Feng fell silent when she heard this. She felt that her daughter seemed to have instantly grown up and understood how to pity others.

His brother-in-law had indeed always taken good care of his daughter. Perhaps it was because he was only six years younger than her that he had watched his daughter grow up. She raised her hand to stroke the top of Xiu Ying's head. With a pleased look in her eyes, she said, "Okay. You must remember not to make any noise."

With mother's permission, Xiu Ying squinted her eyes and smiled, then used her gaze to ask Old Lady Shen. Old Madam Shen was rather moved by her eldest granddaughter's wisdom. She nodded her head and led her into the inner room.

Madam Feng watched as the two figures disappeared, then turned around and returned to her own courtyard. As for Aunt Cui, she found out that Shen Lian had been punished to kneel.
