An Zhongtao looked at her coldly. Xiao Cui turned pale with fear and kowtowed immediately, saying, "It's my fault. I should have remembered to call you Madam only when the General and Madam are not in the mansion. If they are, you are the Second Madam..."

This sentence was not finished yet, and it was like water entering a frying pan. An Yanran jumped up: "You are still talking nonsense here, do you think my parents will believe you? You are slandering me here, you really don't want to live, Daddy, I don't want such a slave, just order her to be beaten to death!"

An Zhongtao looked at An Yanran, surprise and disappointment in his eyes: "Shut up, how can you be so cruel at such a young age? She just said one wrong thing and it's nothing, or maybe it was a slip of the tongue, but the way you two reacted, it seems that what she said was absolutely right!"

Hearing this, An Yanran was stunned. She knew that she had done something stupid again. She saw a hint of smugness on An Qingran's face and couldn't help but said, "Oh, it seems that you arranged this incident today. Dad, don't believe what Xiao Cui said. Ask her carefully to see if this incident today was An Qingran's doing!"

An Qingran didn't say anything, but just looked at An Zhongtao, with surprise in her eyes.

She felt that her performance must be very similar because she had already performed it once at Yuehua Temple.

Seeing her pretending to be innocent, An Yanran walked up to Xiao Cui and slapped her in the face: "Tell me, who told you to say that? What's the matter? Have you been treated badly before? Are you choosing to live on a higher branch again?"

An Yanran didn't realize that she started talking nonsense when she was anxious, and people who had suffered losses didn't learn their lessons.

"Stop it! When has my general's mansion ever treated servants like this? Even though they are servants, they are also human beings and raised by their parents. How can I allow you to abuse them like this?" An Zhongtao was so angry that he was confused. Was he blind before?

Lian Jinrong quickly reached out and grabbed An Yanran, saying, "Master, Yanran is a little reckless, but she is just anxious. We can't let this servant talk nonsense here. If a servant dares to frame her master, it would be lawless. If it gets out, people who know will think that we are lenient to the servants in the general's mansion, which is why they are so presumptuous. People who don't know will think that the general is incompetent and doubt his ability to rule the army..."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" An Zhongtao's eyebrows stood up, "It seems that this general is really incompetent in governing the mansion. I have allowed you to bully others in the mansion for so many years. You and your daughter are like this in front of this general, not to mention when you are behind my back... Come on, lock them up in Lanxiao Pavilion. No one is allowed to let them out without my order. Also, feed them according to the standards of the servants, just to see how the people they bully live. Also, all the servants should withdraw, and let them make their own food!"

"General, it was my fault. Just punish me, don't punish Yanran. She is still young and doesn't understand. She will learn a lesson after this incident. Yanran, hurry up and apologize to your father!"

"Why don't I want her to apologize for me?" The general was so angry that his face turned blue. "She is really lawless. She just said something nice, but she didn't know that everything was false. I don't know who you are trying to fool with those nice words. How can you be so vicious at such a young age?"

An Yanran's face turned red after being scolded, and she was so angry that she was gasping for breath. It was obviously An Qingran who was causing trouble, so why didn't her father believe her and instead believed that girl?

What did she do?

It was because she was pretending in Yuehua Temple and no one exposed her that she was able to display her power. Thinking of this, she said, "Dad, it's just that my daughter is too anxious. I don't want the maids to talk nonsense here to discredit my aunt. My aunt is very hard at home every day. Everyone doesn't see her hard work, but allows the maids to slander her here..."

"Don't talk anymore. I don't want to hear you talk now!" An Zhongtao looked at Madam Hong, "What are you waiting for? Take them away and watch them carefully. No maids are allowed to stay in the yard. Let's see how they cause trouble and bully others!"

Lian Jinrong then realized the seriousness of the matter. In the past, when the general got angry, she only needed to say a few soft words.

And now that he speaks so harshly, he must have lost his heart.

An Qingran spoke up at this time: "Dad, I guess my sister and aunt didn't mean it. Besides, both Madam and Second Madam are Madam, with only one letter difference, so it's nothing."

"Don't plead for them. She just said that to you!" An Zhongtao pointed at An Yanran and said angrily.

Lian Jinyu also said: Today is a family reunion, so let them stay and finish the meal.

"No one is allowed to plead for them. They have gone too far. If we don't teach them a lesson, they will rebel!"

Finally, the two people were taken away.

An Qingran was relieved. As soon as she came back and saw An Yanran walking freely in the yard, she was already angry. She didn't expect that the mother and daughter had done such excessive things at home, causing chaos in the family. She even attempted to become a lady. Lian Jinrong really miscalculated.

The meal was not enjoyable, but An Qingran didn't care about the quality of the meal at all. Now it seems that she has achieved her goal.

At night, she lay in bed, thinking about An Yanran's previous expression, and couldn't help feeling happy.

Honeysuckle sighed, and An Qingran looked at her in confusion: "What's wrong?"

"Miss, I am just worried about Xiao Cui. She is so pitiful. She said the wrong thing this time. If she goes back to the Second Madam, she will definitely have a hard time in the future!"

It turned out that she was worried about this. In fact, when he found Xiao Cui this afternoon, he had already arranged it for her, but she couldn't tell it now because it would arouse suspicion.

Even her mother didn't know about this because she was afraid that her mother would be soft-hearted.

Compared to the harm inflicted on me by this mother and daughter, what I have done is really a drop in the bucket.

Thinking of this, she said, "Maybe my father will think of this matter. At worst, I will go to my mother tomorrow to ask for her arrangement. I can't ask Xiao Cui to come here. An Yanran originally thought that I ordered Xiao Cui to do it..."

"Second Miss, don't you think about it? How can what the mother and daughter did be kept secret? Everyone in the General's Mansion knows that she wants to be a wife. Miss, you really need to pay attention to your safety and be more careful in the future."

"It's okay, I'm lucky." An Qingran smiled. She was destined to have a good dream tonight.

The next morning, as soon as she got up, Rendong told her that the old lady's motorcade had arrived outside the city. The general went to greet them personally and asked everyone in the mansion to make preparations.
