The corner of the artificial hill.
“Miss Jiang, there are big shots inside. If they investigate, they will find the culprits.”
Jiang Mingyun couldn't wait to see Lin Qingwan being scorned and cursed. "I was able to bring you in because I have someone in the manor protecting me. Don't you want to take her back?"
"Now that she's the daughter of the Prime Minister's family, you're in for a good time."
The man dressed as a servant felt a pang of longing as he thought of how beautiful and elegant Lin Qingwan looked now.
Jiang Mingyun reassured her, "Just tell her everything you know, and she won't be able to refuse to go with you."
"Good, good." The servant grinned, already looking forward to taking his wife and starting a family.
At this moment, Lin Qingwan was invited to the back hall by the nanny, where guards were still standing in front of the door.
Yang told Lin about the incident. When Lin saw Lin Qingwan come in, she slapped her across the face, disregarding the gazes of others outside.
Lin Qingwan licked her left cheek. "How did I upset Mother again?"
Lin shouted angrily, "Look what you've done!"
She pointed at the spices on the table, "What the hell did you add to this! Even the slightest mistake in the spices can be fatal. If you bring this kind of stuff to the Crown Prince and Prince Jing, are you trying to ruin the Prime Minister's residence?!"
Lin Qingwan frowned. At that time, she only wanted to avoid making Begonia Fragrance and didn't think too much about it. How could it be poisonous?
Madam Yang, the wife of the Minister, stepped forward to persuade, "Madam, please calm down. The Crown Prince and the Prince were not angry. They just said they would ask Miss Qingwan. Perhaps she was too nervous and made a mistake."
Lin, however, was terrified. "You don't need to speak up for her. She's always been a scoundrel, she..."
Lin Qingwan smiled wryly and interrupted her, "My bad habits are hard to change."
Lin choked, "Kneel down!"
Lin Qingwan took a deep breath, suppressing the indescribable pain in her heart, "May I see the spices?"
She did add things randomly, but you can still tell if they're poisonous.
Madam Lin knew she wouldn't obediently admit her mistake and apologize. If they weren't at the Minister's residence, she would have loved to slap her again. "How dare you! What else do you want!"
Lin Qingwan met her mother's cold and angry gaze. "My incense is not poisonous."
The old woman immediately replied, "The number on it is indeed yours."
Madam Yang's face also turned cold. "The people from the Minister's residence wouldn't make a mistake. Each young lady's materials have a unique identifier."
Lin's face grew increasingly angry. Just how unruly was she? She still wouldn't admit it and even questioned the abilities of the Minister's Mansion!
Neither the Prime Minister's residence nor the Lin family wants a daughter like this!
Madam Lin pursed her thin lips. "Qin Ma, take her away."
“Madam, it is my fault for not disciplining him properly and causing you trouble. I will personally apologize to the Crown Prince and the Prince. This wretched child should be punished as he deserves.”
"This..." Madam Yang was at a loss. "After all, she is Miss Jiang. Why not let her apologize to the Crown Prince and the Prince? If we punish her, how will she face people in the future?"
Lin said, "If she can't improve herself, she won't be able to travel far, and she'll be a disgrace to others."
Hearing her mother's resolute tone, Lin Qingwan felt as if she were a heinous criminal. Why couldn't her mother ever believe her, or even give her a chance to explain?
What chilled Lin Qingwan was never Jiang Yanwan's scheming, but her mother's abandonment.
Aunt Qin rolled up her sleeves and came over. Lin Qingwan sniffed, then rushed to the table, picked up the spices, and smelled them. Her brow relaxed immediately. "There's something in here..."
Before she could finish speaking, Madam Lin said, "Qin Ma, stop her quickly, don't let her destroy the evidence!"
In an instant, even the strongest heart of Lin Qingwan was pierced by an arrow.
Qin Ma and the nannies around Yang rushed up together, treating her like a thief and a villain. Even the guards outside drew their knives.
Lin Qingwan choked up, "There's a highly poisonous Heart-Eating Herb in here."
"The spices that the Minister's Mansion gave us didn't contain this."
She declared firmly, "I didn't do this!"
The old woman insisted, "The number on the bottle is correct!"
Lin paused for a moment, then steeled her resolve. "Do you really want to force the guards in?"
Lin Qingwan couldn't bear her biological mother pushing her into the abyss again and again.
Her nails dug deep into her flesh, and her voice trembled as she asked, "Why does Mother never believe me?"
"What heinous thing have I done to make you hate me so much?"
Suddenly questioned by her, and seeing Lin Qingwan's eyes were terribly red, Lin felt a dense, tingling pain in her heart, but her face remained cold.
Lin Qingwan gave a self-deprecating laugh, "If Jiang Yanwan had been wrongly accused, would you have been so eager to push her into hell?"
I guess not.
"Because Jiang Yanwan is well-mannered and reasonable, and understands your thoughts. She is the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, whom you watched grow up and raised with your own hands. She is the face of the Prime Minister's mansion."
"She won't do anything wrong, and even if she does, you'll help her clear her name."
"Unlike me, whether there is evidence or not does not affect your judgment."
Lin's pupils constricted. "Shut up!"
Lin Qingwan's laughter shattered. "If I'm so bad, why did you even acknowledge me in the first place? If you brought me back, why did you push me away time and time again!"
The last sound was a tearing out of her rage, as if she wanted to scream out her internal organs.
Lin Shi was thrown into disarray by the raging storm; after the initial shock, she was filled with disappointment and anger. Lin Qingwan had never trusted her!
She is the daughter of the Prime Minister's family, his own daughter. Whether she did it or not, since someone has a handle on her, as the Prime Minister's wife and the mistress of the household, she must show her attitude.
If Lin Qingwan simply admits her mistakes and humbles herself, she'll definitely find a way to clear her name and exonerate her. But what about Lin Qingwan? Every time, she's relentless and makes a scene that's impossible for anyone to handle!
