Chapter 47 Protecting the Master
In Shousong Hall, Yuan Zitong's hand wound had been bandaged. She lay on Madam Yuan's lap, crying bitterly: "Grandma, I really didn't mean to push my second sister. I was just worried about her and wanted to pull her back. You don't know how sharp the dagger of that man in black was. I was so scared that my legs went weak... Wuuwuwu..."
Lian Qiao also knelt on the ground and cried, saying, "Old lady, the eldest girl really didn't mean it. If the eldest girl's legs weren't weak, she wouldn't have accidentally pushed the second girl."
The elder lady sat on the Arhat bed with a sullen face, not saying a word for a long time.
Aunt Bai looked at the elder lady worriedly: "Old lady, please don't get too anxious and angry. Take care of yourself!"
Yuan Zitong was unsure of what to do. She glanced at Madam Yuan and didn't dare to say anything more. She just sobbed.
After a while, the little girl came in and reported: "Old lady, the second young lady is here!"
Yuan Ziyu first went back to Wuyou Pavilion to change her clothes. She had been covered in blood from the previous fight with the men in black, and she was looked at sideways by the maids and servants along the way. She was really worried that her appearance would scare Madam Yuan.
"Grandma!" Yuan Ziyu bowed to Madam Yuan, then stood silently aside without saying a word!
Qingying and Qingzhi closely protected Yuan Ziyu.
"What's going on?" The elder lady sighed. Today was the Lantern Festival, and she was thinking of waiting for everyone to return home so that the family could have fun together. But as soon as her eldest granddaughter came back, she ran here with an injury on her hand. What she said scared the elder lady so much that she couldn't recover for a long time.
It was the Lantern Festival, but a gangster was hacking people indiscriminately on the street, and the second granddaughter was almost killed by the gangster because of the eldest granddaughter's unintentional behavior!
"I think my elder sister has already told grandma everything, so I won't say anything more!" Yuan Ziyu said with a faint smile.
"Second girl, are you angry with your elder sister?" The elder lady asked with a sigh.
"Grandma!" Yuan Ziyou looked at Madam Yuan: "Shouldn't my granddaughter be angry?"
"You should be angry!" The elder lady said, "Your elder sister did something wrong, and I will definitely punish her. However, your elder sister's mistake was unintentional after all. You have already beaten her. Can you forgive her this time?"
Yuan Ziyu did not reply, but just looked at Madam Yuan quietly!
Yuan Ziyu knew very well how much Madam Yuan loved Yuan Zitong. After more than ten years of relationship, Yuan Zitong was used to pretending to be well-behaved. If Madam Yuan were to recognize Yuan Zitong's true character, it would probably take more than a day or two.
Yuan Ziyu was not surprised at all that Madam Yuan would plead for Yuan Zitong regarding what happened today.
When Mrs. Yuan saw Yuan Ziyu didn't say anything, her face turned a little unhappy. In her opinion, sisters in the same family should always be harmonious if there is anything they can't get over. If they are so calculative, how can they get along in the future?
What's more, Yuan Zitong was raised by her, so she knew very well that the push she gave Yuan Ziyu must have been unintentional.
The elder lady was about to say something when Qingying suddenly fell to her knees with a thud.
"Old lady, even if you punish me today, I will tell you what I want to say!" Qingying said as tears fell from her eyes!
"Okay, you go ahead!" The elder lady nodded.
Yuan Zitong lay on Madam Yuan's legs, crying and secretly gritting her teeth. She really wanted Madam Yuan to punish Qingying for her presumptuous behavior, but she didn't dare to speak at this time, for fear that Yuan Ziyu would hold her back.
"Old lady!" Qingying said, "Today is the Lantern Festival, a festive occasion, but villains took the opportunity to hurt people on the street. The second young lady, disregarding her own safety, fought with the villains and was in danger several times, but fortunately escaped danger. Among the people the second young lady protected was the eldest young lady. However, the eldest young lady took advantage of the second young lady's unpreparedness and pushed her into the villain's dagger, causing the second young lady to be almost injured or even killed. The old lady did not ask whether the second young lady was hurt or scared, but only forced her to forgive the eldest young lady. I feel sorry for the second young lady."
"Yes, old lady!" Qingzhi also knelt down. "The second young lady was afraid that the blood stains on her body would scare the old lady, so she went back to change her clothes before rushing here!"
"Second girl, are you hurt? Let grandma see it quickly!" Old Lady Yuan said hurriedly. Originally, when she saw Yuan Ziyu coming in, her clothes were clean and tidy, so she didn't think about anything else. But after hearing what Qingying and Qingzhi said, she became anxious.
"Grandma, my granddaughter is fine, it's just..." Yuan Ziyu bit her lip and didn't continue.
"Just what?" Old Lady Yuan saw that Yuan Ziyu didn't continue, so she said anxiously, "What else do you want, little girl? Tell me quickly! Are you trying to drive an old woman like me crazy?"
"But Prince Xuan was seriously injured because of his granddaughter!" Yuan Ziyu said softly.
"Prince Xuan?" Madam Yuan was a little confused for a moment: "Which Prince Xuan?"
"The eldest son of Prince Su's Mansion, the younger brother of the current queen, Shaoqing Xuan!" Yuan Ziyu's words shocked everyone in the room and made them pale.
Madam Yuan suddenly stood up from the Luohan bed, and Yuan Zitong was caught off guard and fell to the ground. At this time, Yuan Zitong's heart was pounding. She knew that a man was injured in order to protect Yuan Ziyu, but she was panicked at the time and lay on the ground without paying attention to the man's appearance. She just didn't expect that the man was actually Prince Xuan, the younger brother of the current queen?
Yuan Zitong's hands and feet suddenly became cold. After careful consideration, she realized that Prince Xuan was injured because of her. If Prince Su's Mansion investigated the matter, what would she do?
Thinking of this, Yuan Zitong's face turned pale and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
The elder lady stood up suddenly, a little unsteady, and Nanny Bai and Shaoyao hurried forward to support her.
The elder lady didn't care about anything else and just asked, "How did Prince Xuan get hurt?"
"As for how he got hurt!" Yuan Ziyu sneered and looked at Yuan Zitong: "I'm afraid I'll have to ask big sister about that!"
"No, I was careless. I didn't expect to hurt Prince Xuan!" Yuan Zitong was terrified. She climbed up and retreated to Madam Yuan's feet. She grabbed Madam Yuan's legs and cried, "Grandma, please save your granddaughter, please save your granddaughter!"
Madam Yuan looked at Yuan Zitong anxiously and angrily: "Why didn't you say it just now?"
"My granddaughter didn't notice..." Yuan Zitong said hesitantly.
Yuan Ziyu chuckled and said, "Grandma, if it weren't for Prince Xuan blocking the knife for your granddaughter, you might not have seen her!"
"What?" The elder lady asked in shock, her eyes wide open.
"So!" Yuan Ziyou smiled and said, "Grandmother, are you still asking your granddaughter to forgive Big Sister?"
"Unforgivable!"
An angry voice came from outside the house.
