This was the scene Shen Xinyan saw when she rushed over.

"Stop it, all of you!" She didn't know how she suppressed her anger. She just wanted to grab those two daring guys and give them a beating.

"Bad guy!" Although Xia He picked her up from the melee, Xiao Yingzhi still kicked Wei Minzhi who was pulled away by Chun Liu out of satisfaction.

Wei Minzhi was so angry that she almost rushed over again, but Chunliu hugged her tightly: "Third Miss, Third Miss..."

Seeing that her daughter still kicked someone at this time, Shen Xinyan couldn't bear it anymore. She pulled her daughter from Xia He's arms, raised her hand and slapped her hard on the butt.

There was a crisp sound of "pop", and tears instantly welled up in the little girl's eyes, which rolled back and forth a few times but did not fall.

"Madam, please don't hit Ying'er. It's my fault." When Ling Fu saw this, he hurried over to plead for mercy.

Shen Xin smiled angrily, pulled him over and slapped him on the butt without mercy.

Pingfu said nothing and just stood there obediently, letting her beat him.

In the other room, Fang, who got the news, was also so angry that she started beating her daughter.

"She was the one who pushed Qi Ge'er first!" Wei Minzhi felt so wronged after being beaten by her.

Upon hearing that her son was involved, Fang was furious. She quickly pulled Wei Chengqi over to take a look. Sure enough, she saw dust on his buttocks, and it was obvious that he had been pushed to the ground.

"I, I'm fine, I'm fine." Wei Chengqi was a little scared and shrank his neck.

"Were you the one who pushed Brother Qi first?" Shen Xin glared at her daughter sternly.

The little girl stiffened her neck and shouted, "Who told him to wrongly accuse someone?"

"You pushed someone and you're right?" Shen Xinyan felt a headache. When she met Fang's eyes that looked like she wanted to eat her daughter, her head suddenly hurt even more.

"Sister-in-law, Ying'er is wrong in this matter..."

"You don't have to say anything. My Qi brother asked for it. Why did he come here for no reason?" Fang interrupted her and turned to leave with her son. After walking a few steps, she saw that her daughter did not follow her and shouted, "What are you still standing there for? Don't you think you haven't been beaten enough?!"

Wei Minzhi glared at Xiao Yingzhi unconvincedly, snorted heavily, and ran after her.

Xiao Yingzhi made a face at her back and snorted, "I'm not afraid of you!"

However, when she turned around and saw her mother's serious face, she shrank back behind Pingfu in fear. Pingfu quickly opened his arms and protected her behind him: "Madam, don't blame Ying'er, it has nothing to do with her..."

"Go back!" Shen Xinyan looked fierce and pulled one with each hand.

The two dirty little guys were pulled away by her, and Shen Huiran hurriedly followed.

"Which of you can tell me what's going on? And you, why did you push Qi Ge'er for no reason?" Shen Xinyan ordered the two little guys who were causing trouble to stand upright and asked with a stern face.

Wei Chengqi was well-known for being well-behaved and sensible. Shen Xinyan naturally didn't believe that he would take the initiative to cause trouble given his personality. Therefore, she didn't even need to think about it. She thought it must be her daughter who was at fault first.

Xiao Yingzhi puffed up her cheeks like a little puffer fish, but refused to say another word.

"Madam, it's not Ying'er's fault..." Lingfu stammered and tried to explain, but Shen Xinyan glared at him, "Of course, you are also wrong in this matter."

Looking at his daughter who was pouting and stiffening her neck, he felt a ball of anger rising in his heart for some reason. He took a few deep breaths to suppress his anger, and walked out with a flick of his sleeves: "Since this is the case, you two should kneel down and reflect on your actions. When you have figured it out, you can get up again."

"Hui'er, let's go." He took his niece's hand and left without looking back.

"Aunt..." Shen Huiran wanted to plead for mercy, but when she saw her sullen face, she dared not say anything.

"Kneel down then!" Xiao Yingzhi snorted softly until Shen Xinyan's figure could no longer be seen.

Chun Liu poked her face helplessly, stood up, spread the soft mat on the ground, asked the two kids to kneel down, then pulled Xia He out and closed the door.

Although there was no one else in the room, Linfu still knelt obediently. The little girl knelt for only a while before sitting down on the cushion, touching her belly and saying bitterly, "Linfu, I'm hungry."

After the "big battle", it felt like the breakfast I had just eaten was completely consumed.

"I have some snacks in my pocket, you can eat some to fill your stomach." Pingfu quickly took out the butterfly cakes hidden on his body. When he opened the small cloth bag, the fragrant and crispy butterfly cakes had already broken into crumbs.

The little girl turned her face away in disgust: "It's broken, I don't want it!"

Pingfu stroked her ears, picked out the biggest piece and put it towards her mouth, coaxing her: "This one is a little bigger, eat it first to fill your stomach, otherwise you will be too hungry."

The little girl still didn't want it, and Lingfu coaxed her patiently for a long time. Finally she opened her mouth reluctantly and bit it with a "Ahwu".

Shen Xinyan naturally also learned the truth of the matter from Shen Huiran, and covered her forehead with a headache. However, when she saw her niece beside her and thought about her extremely protective daughter, she somehow thought of her previous life.

In her previous life, her daughter was also such a protective person, but the person she was protecting at that time was her cousin Hui. Just like today, as long as she feels that someone is bullying the person she is protecting, she will teach the other person a lesson regardless of the consequences.

She sighed deeply and suddenly lost her mood. She said a few words reluctantly and let Shen Huiran go back to the house.

"Take the white crane rectangular inkstone that the prince brought back last time, and the pink and green flowers of the Butterfly Lovers sent by Linglong Pavilion a few days ago, and add some other things to send to the main house." After a while, she instructed Qiutang.

Qiu Tang nodded, understanding her intention.

The rectangular inkstone was for the fourth young master, and the hair flower was probably for the third young lady. No matter what, the fourth young lady was at fault in this matter. Even if the eldest lady couldn't blame her, her own wife couldn't just pretend that nothing had happened.

"If the fourth girl knew about her impulse, she would have to reject the hairpin she has liked for a long time. I wonder how upset she would be!" she said with a smile.

Shen Xinyan snorted softly: "Just to temper her temper!"

Qiu Tang laughed and shook his head, bowed and walked out.

"Lingfu, they really don't care about us. They haven't brought us any food for such a long time." In the east room, Xiao Yingzhi stepped on the embroidery cushion, pushed the window open a little and looked out. She saw maids coming and going outside, but no one brought her food. She said aggrievedly.

Lin Fu, who was still kneeling obediently on the mat, comforted her, "No, no, Madam will send someone to bring us food soon. Ying'er, wait a little longer."

The little girl sighed like an adult, climbed down from the embroidery cushion, and complained angrily: "I'm almost starving..."

"Then why don't we apologize to Madam?" Ling Fu thought for a moment and suggested.

"No, if I admit my mistake to mother, she will definitely ask us to give gifts and apologize to Third Sister and Qi Ge'er, and I don't want that!" The little girl refused firmly.

"But, but hitting people is wrong!" Lin Fu murmured to his fingers.

The little girl didn't hear what he said. She rolled around on the mat, saying non-stop, "I want to eat jujube mud cakes, plum blossom cakes, green dumplings, lotus cakes... ah, and I also want to eat the delicious chicken drumsticks!"

Every time she read a word, Lingfu swallowed his saliva and even felt his stomach growling.

"Lingfu, Ying'er..." There was a sudden knock on the window, and then they heard someone calling them from outside. The two looked at each other, the little girl tilted her head to recognize them, and then she cried out "Ah".

“It’s my brother!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the window was pushed open from the outside, and then with a "bang", a figure jumped in from the window.

"Hush, don't make a sound." Wei Chenglin made a gesture to keep quiet, and the girl immediately covered her mouth with both hands, staring at the oil-paper bag he took out from his arms with shining eyes. A tempting fragrance wafted into her nose.

"It's delicious chicken legs and buns!" Xiao Yingzhi's eyes brightened.

Wei Chenglin smiled and invited them to eat. Lingfu swallowed his saliva, but there was still some hesitation on his face: "Will the Madam be unhappy if she knows?"

"It's okay. I'm here!" Wei Chenglin touched his head and stuffed a meat bun into his hand with a smile.

"Brother, you are so nice!" The little girl's mouth was greasy after eating, and she smiled with satisfaction and said sweetly.

Wei Chenglin wiped her mouth with a smile: "Eat slowly, don't be anxious."

On the other side, Chun Liu walked in with her mouth covered. Shen Xinyan put down the teacup, wiped the corners of her mouth and asked, "What are you laughing at? What happened to those two troublemakers? Do they think the food you sent is not tasty?"

"My stuff hasn't been delivered yet!"

"It hasn't been sent in yet?" Shen Xin frowned. Children can't be hungry, and now is the time for them to have meals.

"I was just about to pretend to 'sneak in the food without telling my wife', but I didn't expect the eldest master to be quicker than me and had already sent the food in. Now the fourth lady and Lingfu are enjoying their meal!"

Lin Ge'er? Shen Xinyan was a little surprised.

"That's not all. When I delivered the things to the main room, I happened to see the eldest son coming out of there. Later, after asking around, I learned that he went to personally give gifts and apologize to the third lady and the fourth son." Qiu Tang walked in at some point and said with a smile.

"The eldest master really acts like an elder brother!" Chunliu sighed.

Shen Xinyan's eyes were somewhat complicated.

The son had paid compensation and apologized to others on behalf of his daughter many times in his previous life, but after paying the compensation and apologizing, he would scold his daughter for being stubborn and willful. This was the first time in two lifetimes that he was so considerate as to send food to his punished daughter.

"Madam, I think that's enough, right? Although the fourth young lady was at fault in this matter, it was the first lady who did the evil first. If she hadn't used the name of the fourth young master to slander Fan Fu, why would the fourth young lady treat the fourth young master like that?" Chun Liu thought for a moment and advised in a low voice.

Shen Xinyan shook her head.

She didn't punish her daughter for this, she just wanted to teach her a lesson. If she didn't change her nature of being a stick-butting person, what would happen to her in the future? It was good to protect those close to her, but she had to change her ways and not be like a firecracker that exploded at the slightest touch.
