The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

An Xiaoqiu, who was standing by, was gloating at first, but when she saw her aunt taking action, she got a little anxious and stepped forward to hold Yang Qi, saying, "Good sister, just admit your mistake. Aunt, my clothes are all wet now, so let me take you downstairs and change your clothes first."

An Xiaoqiu had witnessed the power of the Duke's Mansion during this period. It was hard to say when the Duke and the old lady would appear. Seeing Yang Qi like this, they would be wrong even if they were right.

There is no way Yang Qi would let An Xiaoqiu get her wish. Wasn't it just for this moment that he kept angering An and Yang Jing today?

With some force, Yang Qi pushed An Xiaoqiu away: "No need for you, an outsider, to be so kind here."

An Xiaoqiu didn't expect Yang Qi to push her away, and she stepped back without paying attention. Fortunately, the maid next to her was alert and immediately supported An Xiaoqiu.

Seeing that Yang Qi dared to resist in the main room, An pointed at Yang Qi and said to the maid beside her: "Hold her down for me."

The people that An left in the room were all her confidants. Upon hearing what An said, these maids immediately rushed forward and arrested Yang Qi.

Although Yang Qi intended to train herself in this life, two fists are no match for four hands. The three maids held Yang Qi tightly and pressed her down.

"Bang." Yang Qi heard the sound of his knees kneeling on the ground.

Yang Qi looked up at An coldly and stopped talking. In this situation, it was time for the old lady to take the stage.

Sure enough, the capable maidservant beside the old lady stopped Kai An's men and pushed the door open and entered the house.

Yang Lan was originally supporting the old lady on the side. When she saw the scene in the room, she was so shocked that she was speechless.

Yang Qi's hair and clothes were wet, and the wound and blood on her forehead were particularly obvious. She was held down by three maids and made to kneel on the ground.

The first time Yang Qi saw her grandmother, she cried. An and Yang Jing's insults did not make Yang Qi cry, nor did the maids and servants' suppression. But now, seeing her grandmother and Yang Lan, Yang Qi could no longer stop her tears, dripping onto the ground.

When the old lady and Yang Lan saw Yang Qi's tears, they felt as if their hearts were being stabbed.

It was the old lady who reacted first. Over the years, she had heard a lot of tricks in the palace and the mansion, but this was the first time that the eldest girl's face was injured: "An, what are you doing?"

The old lady's words were very cold, which made An and Yang Jing react immediately. An swallowed her saliva. Her life had been too smooth these years, but today she lost her composure for a moment.

Yang Jing immediately trotted forward and showed her beaten face: "Grandma, second sister, Daddy and Mommy arranged for me to study with Third Sister, but Third Sister despised me for being stupid and didn't want to teach me. She even beat me."

Yang Jing's eyes were extremely red and swollen from crying for too long, but it wasn't obvious on her face. Her whole face was covered with snot and tears, which made the old lady very unhappy. Is this still the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion?

On the other hand, Yang Qi, although he was kneeling on the ground with injuries on his face and tears in his eyes, the determination in his eyes did not disappear. He was worthy of being the disciple taught by Mr. Yang himself.

Yang Qi didn't expect that his performance today would make the old lady like him even more.

Yang Lan reacted and said coldly, "Mother, I don't know what mistake Third Sister has made. In any case, let Third Sister stand up and speak first."

Looking at the atmosphere in the room, Mrs. An was reluctant but had to let the maid release the hand that was pressing down on Yang Qi.

An Xiaoqiu felt that the atmosphere in the room had fallen into a bad state: "Second cousin, you misunderstood. Today's incident..."

Before An Xiaoqiu finished her words, Yang Lan interrupted her: "Miss An, today's matter is a private matter of the Duke's Mansion. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to be here. Also, you mentioned today's matter, I misunderstood, then I would like to ask, did you really see what happened between the third sister and the sixth sister today? This is strange, why didn't you stop it then, but now you come to stop me."

It was the first time that Yang Lan said such aggressive words in public. For a moment, An Xiaoqiu didn't know how to start.

The old lady was a little shocked when she saw Yang Lan's look. Lan had been taught how to be a steady queen since she was a child, and this was the first time she showed her emotions: "Miss An, please go out first."

The old lady would not give An Xiaoqiu any face and drove her out with just one sentence.

The old lady and Yang Lan's words imply that they are trying to favor that blockhead Yang Qi?

An said with a sullen face: "Mother, today the third girl hit Jingjie, and I am just teaching the third girl now."

"Oh." The old lady said, "Am I disturbing you from teaching the child? Third girl, tell me, why did you take action today?"

Yang Qi spoke in a hoarse voice and recounted what happened in Linhu Court today without adding any exaggeration.

After talking about what happened today, Yang Qi burst into tears. This was the first time she cried today: "Grandma, mother, Mr. Yang said that if you want to write well, you must grind the ink well. I have always felt that what Mr. Yang said is very reasonable. Therefore, until now, I must grind the ink myself when I write."

After calming down, Yang Qi continued, "Sixth sister keeps saying that bastards born of lowly people are worthy of going to Ningguta. Grandmother, I really don't understand. I am my father's biological child. Isn't Sixth sister saying this to humiliate me by using the reputation of the Duke's Mansion?"

The old lady thought that today was just a quarrel between the girls, but she didn't expect Yang Jing to say these words.

The old lady's eyes were like knives staring at Yang Jing: "Is what Yang Qi said true?"

Yang Jing was a little afraid of the old lady, and she was a little scared: "Grandma, it's because Yang Qi despised me for being stupid these past two days and didn't want to teach me."

When An heard what Yang Jing said, she thought to herself, this child, why didn't she tell me everything. That bitch Yang Qi chose this moment to say these words, isn't this letting the old lady target me?

Yang Lan found it somewhat ridiculous. Mr. Yang was very strict in accepting disciples. He only accepted three disciples in the whole capital. Now Yang Jing was trying to compete with Yang Qi. He was really a frog in the well and had no idea what he was doing.

Yang Lan explained, "Sixth sister, I can tell you responsibly that the first step for my third sister and I to learn calligraphy from Mr. Yang was grinding. It took my third sister and I a whole month to grind out good ink. Moreover, my third sister's ability to write calligraphy today is the result of her accumulation of achievements over the years. Sixth sister, you want to reach my third sister's current ability in just two or three days. You are too ambitious."

Yang Jing felt very aggrieved when she heard what Yang Lan said: "Second sister, then Third sister never explained it to me either."
