The Devious First-Daughter

Upon hearing that the older female servant had insulted Madam Dowager, the face of the personal servant of Madam Dowager was red with anger. She grabbed the older female servant, who failed to react at the moment, and made for the door. ”Come, letʼs go to meet Madam Dowager and let her decide who is right. Why does the order from Madam Dowager not work? Why canʼt we take the person away? Do we really need to ask the First Madam for permission to take one person away?”

”I have been here for a while. No matter what I said to her, she just wouldnʼt allow me to take Mother Han away and she actually spoke ill of the mistresses. Mammy, now the mistresses must be anxiously waiting in suspense. We really canʼt afford to shoulder the responsibility.” By her side, Lanning added fuel to the servantʼs angry flames.

Upon hearing that she might shoulder the responsibility, the servant was unwilling to stop. She had someone else bring Mother Han with them. Then, holding the hand of the servant who guarded the door, she dragged her all the way to Auspicious Fortune Hall. There was a lot of noise along the way so she also brought a large group of onlookers there.

After Lanning and the servant had left, Madam Dowager asked Ning Xueyan to sit down to answer questions. Madam Dowager tenderly asked her about her body condition. She also planned on inviting a physician to take her pulse in order to see what kind of medicine was better for her. Furthermore, she specifically told Mother Qin beside her to prepare some good medicine for Ning Xueyan, and so on. All these things showed how much she cared for Ning Xueyan.

At the side, Madam Ling also chipped in on their conversation from time to time. The scene actually looked quite warm and happy!

When they were acting vigorously, a loud noise suddenly came from outside. The face of Madam Dowager fell instantly. Before she could speak, Lanning rushed in with her dirty face. After entering the door, she immediately knelt down before Madam Dowager with a loud thud. She burst into tears. ”Madam Dowager, please exercise justice for our Young Lady.”

She mentioned Ning Xueyan at the beginning. Madam Dowager was stunned and then she looked down at Lanning, whose face was covered with black and white lines now. For a moment, Madam Dowager failed to recognize who she was.

Mother Qin standing by her side actually recognized Lanning immediately. Then she whispered in Madam Dowagerʼs ear to remind her. Spotting the surprised look on Consort Dowagerʼs face, Madam Dowager really wanted to explode.

”Lanning, whatʼs the matter? Didnʼt you go to bring Mother Han here? How could you end up like this?” asked Ning Xueyan. She frowned while looking Lanning up and down. She then asked with an unpleasant expression, ”Is there anything wrong regarding me that needs my grandmother to get justice for me?”

Because they were just displaying their deep feelings of kinship, Madam Dowager could not blame Ning Xueyan for speaking first. Moreover, Lanning was Ning Xueyanʼs maid, so it was normal for her to ask questions first.

”My lady, I went to get Mother Han with the Mammy from Auspicious Fortune Hall. But when we arrived there, that older female servant not only didnʼt allow us to take Mother Han away, but she also called you a sickly. And she also said that... She said that you were not the mistress...” Lanning felt so wronged that she could hardly bring out a word. She was angry and annoyed. Unconsciously, the rims of her eyes turned red. It was obvious that she had been bullied badly.

”How dare she do such things? That dog slave, where is she?” Madam Dowager leaned back angrily. She was performing this deep touching bond with her granddaughter here to make others think that she was sincerely good to Ning Xueyan. But she didnʼt expect that such a thing would happen. She felt embarrassed and opened her mouth to scold her.

While they were talking, the people from outside arrived!

Entangled with each other, the two older female servants came in. Behind them, Mother Han also came in and then knelt at one side.

In the chaos, Qingyu managed to get in and stood in the shadow behind Ning Xueyan.

The moment Ning Xueyan spotted Qingyu, she knew in her heart that the things over there seemed to have already been completed!
