Chapter 274 The Young Master of Duke Zhao’s Mansion

"Who are you?"

Being pointed at suddenly, Tong Nanyi raised her brows and looked at the man in front of her.

"I can't stand people like you who bully your own sisters," Zhao Yanshu looked at Tong Nanxia, ​​who was crying so hard that I felt sorry for her, "Girl, don't cry. I will definitely seek justice for you."

Tong Nanyi: “…”

Tong Nanxia saw that someone was speaking up for her and wanted to find trouble with the person who scolded her, so she habitually said, "Sir, my elder sister didn't bully me. It's all my fault. Nanxia doesn't deserve it."

After she said this, Zhao Yanshu felt extremely painful in his heart.

He had never seen such a pitiful and kind girl as Tong Nanxia. Even when she was bullied, she still defended her elder sister.

It's just like a little white flower that grows out of the mud without being stained.

At that moment, he felt extremely distressed for Tong Nanxia. "Miss, you were bullied by your elder sister, but you still spoke up for her. You are so kind and gentle, it's rare in the world. Your elder sister is simply arrogant. I will seek justice for you today. If she doesn't apologize to you, I will personally come to your house and talk to your elders."

Tong Nanyi: “…”

She's so mad, so mad.

This person... is sick!

After saying that, Zhao Yanshu turned his head and looked at Tong Nanyi, "Which family are you from? What's your father's name? What's his official rank?"

"I don't want to bother with you!" Tong Nanyi turned and left.

There was no way Zhao Yanshu would let her run away, so he immediately gave the servant a look and ordered him to go and get her.

The two servants quickly blocked Tong Nanyi's way. The maids and servants beside Tong Nanyi saw this battle to protect their master. Tong Nanxia became even more anxious when she saw this.

"Master, please let my third sister go. I don't need to apologize. My third sister admonished me for my own good. I am not worthy of it."

How could Zhao Yanshu listen to this? "Stop the person for me! If you don't apologize today, even if you are a princess, you can't leave!"

"Get out of the way! Don't touch our young lady!"

The scene was in chaos.

At this moment, an urgent and crisp female voice sounded, "What happened?"

A large group of people came this way.

Tong Nanyi, who was surrounded by servants, saw Lu Lingyun inside at a glance. She ran to Lu Lingyun in a panic, "Cousin!"

"Mr. Zhao, what happened?" Qin Shaojing walked quickly to Zhao Yanshu.

Tong Nanxia, ​​who was in the middle, looked at the incident that was caused by her, and knelt down with a thud, saying, "It's my fault. It's all because of me, Third Sister, please don't be angry."

"Who are you!" Qin Shaojing asked.

But before anyone could answer her, she heard Zhao Yanshu's concerned voice, "Girl, get up quickly. I, Zhao Yanshu, am here today, so no one can bully you. If your elder sister dares to mess around and act bossy again, I will punish her!"

Tong Nanyi was so angry that she almost cried. She pointed at the two of them and said incoherently, "Cousin, he, she, they..."

Lu Lingjun understood what was going on. It must be Tong Nanyi who scolded Tong Nanxia so that others would misunderstand and bully her. Just look at Tong Nanxia's aggrieved expression with tears in her eyes. Who wouldn't feel sorry for her?

She comforted Tong Nanyi and stood up and said, "Mr. Zhao, I am their cousin. You must have some misunderstanding. My third sister is straightforward and she is like this at home with my fourth sister."

"Straightforward? I think he's vicious!"

"Master, please don't scold my third sister. She is really not a bad person. She is doing this for my own good."

Lu Lingyun: "......"

Lu Lingyun looked at the pitiful Tong Nanxia and said something that would deepen the misunderstanding. If she didn't really know that she had a bad temper, she would have thought that she wanted to kill her third sister. She waved at Tong Nanxia, ​​"Nanxia, ​​get up."

Tong Nanxia quickly stood up and walked in front of them, "Cousin..."

"I know your temper. Tell me, has your third sister ever bullied you?"

Tong Nanxia's head shook like a wave drum, "It's all my fault..."

"Okay," Lu Lingyun interrupted her when she was about to say she deserved it. She looked at Tong Nanyi and said, "Nanyi, don't you know your sister's temper? For my sake, apologize to her."

Lu Lingyun tried to mediate between the two, and Tong Nanyi responded reluctantly, "Well, it's my fault, okay?"

"No, Third Sister, it's all my fault..."

"Alright, alright, don't apologize to each other. Let's leave it at that for today," Lu Lingyun reconciled the two and looked at Zhao Yanshu, "Master Zhao, I will discipline them after I return. Do you think this is feasible?"

Zhao Yanshu was frowning at this time, looking at Tong Nanxia with worry, always feeling that she was still being bullied.

"You are..."

"Master Zhao, that's my sister-in-law, the wife of the prince of Ningyang Marquis's Mansion." Qin Shaojing, who had been left aside, finally got the chance to speak, and she hurriedly said.

"It turned out to be Madam Cheng," Zhao Yanshu said to Lu Lingyun without even turning his eyes to Qin Shaojing, "I have heard of Madam Cheng's reputation. I think she is a fair mistress. I hope Madam Cheng will pay more attention to what happened today. Go back and discipline your third cousin. Don't call you fourth sister anymore... You are wronged."

Zhao Yanshu's heart was filled with sadness as he saw Tong Nanxia, ​​who hung her head, looking so pitiful, like a fragile and helpless duckweed.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for your guidance." Lu Lingjun did not argue with him and responded directly.

Why did she argue so much with outsiders? Regardless of whether others would listen to her explanation or not, this matter had to be suppressed. Tong Nanyi and Tong Nanxia were both ladies from noble families, and any more topics would be bad for them.

In this era, unmarried girls from good families are all low-key and silent, even their names are kept secret and will not be easily known to outsiders.

Being low-key is its biggest advantage.

Someone like Qin Shaojing who takes an unconventional approach will get into trouble sooner or later.

She agreed directly, too lazy to say more.

After hearing what Lu Lingyun said, Zhao Yanshu couldn't say anything else. He even wanted to ask a name, but he didn't have a reason at the moment. He could only watch them finish talking and leave.

"Shao Jing, we're going back first."

"You guys go back, sister-in-law." Qin Shaojing nodded at her.

Seeing them walk away, Qin Shaojing turned to look at the man in fancy clothes beside her. Before she could say anything, Zhao Yanshu asked first.

"Miss Qin, do your sister-in-law and her cousins ​​come here often?"

Qin Shaojing was unsure of what he meant for a moment, and said ambiguously, "Sometimes."

Zhao Yan relaxed his brows and smiled at her, "How about this, next time they come, let me know and I'll come to pray for my mother again."

Zhao Yanshu's eyes sparkled. Qin Shaojing had several thoughts in her mind when she heard this. Finally, she nodded and said, "Okay."
