The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Chapter 128 Punishment (1)

The princess's mansion invited quite a few families today, and the entrance was a bit crowded.

It took a lot of effort to get the carriage of Duke Song's mansion out. This princess's mansion is really poorly managed. If Princess Shou had paid more attention, the entrance wouldn't be so messy.

Seeing the carriage leave the princess's residence, Yang Qi lowered the curtain of the carriage and said, "Second sister, did something happen today?"

Yang Lan's expression did not improve: "Yang Jing and An Xiaoqiu fell into the lake."

Yang Qi was excited: "What? Wasn't it Princess Cheng'an who fell into the lake? I saw it with my own eyes." I really guessed it right.

But when did it become Yang Jing and An Xiaoqiu? Could it be that they saw what Princess Cheng An did and followed suit?

Yang Lan saw through Yang Jing and An Xiaoqiu's thoughts at a glance, but she was not comfortable saying it out loud: "It was said that the sixth sister was too close to the lake and accidentally fell in. An Xiaoqiu was nearby and also jumped in to save her."

Their explanation was really absurd. Yang Qi frowned and said, "Did An Xiaoqiu rescue the sixth sister? The lake in the princess's mansion is not deep, but the sixth sister is short, so she might be in danger."

It would be great if An Xiaoqiu could really save people. Yang Lan was helpless: "An Xiaoqiu can't swim at all. In the end, it was the sixth young master of the Xiao family who rescued her."

He is a landlubber, but he tries to learn how to jump into the water to save people. Is he just trying to gain favor by any means necessary? Or does An Xiaoqiu hope that with her looks, she can impress a young master from a prominent family and get him to jump into the water to save her?

Yang Qi looked at Yang Lan with a disgusted expression: "Xiao family? Could it be the Xiao family that divorced Mr.?"

Yang Lan nodded, as an affirmation of Yang Qi's words.

Lord Xiao has two sons. The second son is Mr. Yang's ex-husband. The sixth young master of the Xiao family is the illegitimate son of Lord Xiao.

This is quite lively, with Princess Cheng'an in front and the daughter of Duke Song behind. I guess those daughters are talking and laughing at him behind his back. He was finally rescued from the water, but he is still a bastard.

Thinking of this, Yang Qi suddenly had an idea. These days, An Xiaoqiu was not only restricted in the mansion, but also suffered a lot outside the mansion. It seemed that it was because of these reasons that she gave up the idea of ​​marrying someone outside and was thinking about how to pounce on her eldest brother.

In her previous life, when she came to the capital, An Xiaoqiu thought that she could not become the legal wife of a noble family's son because of her status, so she started to have evil thoughts. An Xiaoqiu had the support of the An family, was wealthy, and was very popular in the mansion in her previous life. In addition, the An family was popular at that time, so she designed a plan to take advantage of her eldest brother.

Yang Qi rubbed his head. His eldest brother was very smart, but he was a little confused about the backyard. The reason was that his second uncle and second aunt had a good relationship, and they had never had such a messy thing as a concubine in all these years, so his eldest brother was a little confused.

In this life, I have already given my second aunt a shot of prevention, and I believe that my second aunt has already informed my eldest brother. However, when my eldest brother returns home, I will have to brainwash him more. The true face of An Xiaoqiu must be exposed, and I can't let this person harm my eldest brother again.

While Yang Qi was thinking, the carriage arrived at the Mansion of Duke Song unknowingly.

Yang Lan saw that Yang Qi was lost in thought and pulled Yang Qi's sleeve. "Third sister, let's go upstairs and report today's events to grandma."

Yang Qi nodded. Even if Yang Jing and An Xiaoqiu had not happened, according to the usual practice, after returning home from another family, the first thing he needed to do was to greet his grandmother.

Yang He led Yang Jing and An Xiaoqiu and followed timidly behind Yang Lan and Yang Qi.

There was no need for Yang Lan to say anything, as a maid came over to report the matter to the old lady.

As soon as Yang Jing and An Xiaoqiu entered the room, the old lady shouted, "You two, kneel down now!"

An Xiaoqiu knelt down obediently. Yang Jing was a little unwilling to accept it, but under the old lady's vicious gaze, she still knelt down.

An also entered the house with the help of Jin's mother. Seeing Dan Dan Yangjing and An Xiaoqiu kneeling on the ground, she felt a little nervous.

When the old lady received the letter, she asked someone to call An over. An was not as well-informed as the old lady about the news in the capital, but looking at Rong's mother's expression, she knew that things were not that simple. Under the pretext of changing clothes, she hurriedly asked someone to go to the front yard to ask for help from the Duke when no one was around.

An knew that she had suffered a loss in the last incident. Although she didn't know what happened today, things would definitely be better with the Duke present.

Seeing Yang Jing's aggrieved face, An thought for a moment and said, "What trouble have you caused again, kid? Tell me quickly. Be sure to tell me everything."

Yang Jing was also depressed. She had indeed fallen accidentally. At that time, all the young ladies had gathered at the edge of the lake, and those at the back were pushing and shoving to get forward. She did not stand firmly and accidentally fell.

Looking at her mother's eyes, Yang Qi looked at the old lady again. The moment she saw the old lady, Yang Jing lowered her head and told her what happened today in detail.

After saying this, Yang Jing choked up a little: "Grandma, mother, what happened today was indeed because there were too many people. I was squeezed into the water."

An Xiaoqiu knew that the old lady didn't like her, so she didn't dare to speak at this time. She waited until Yang Jing finished telling her everything before she spoke: "Old lady, aunt, today Princess Cheng'an fell into the lake, and everyone gathered by the lake. My sixth sister and I were squeezed to the front, and the people behind us kept rushing forward. My sixth sister is short, and the people behind us didn't pay attention, which led to this disaster."

After wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, An Xiaoqiu finally spoke: "Madam, aunt, no matter what the reason, it is indeed me and my sixth sister who failed to observe the rules of not looking at anything indecent today and caused trouble. Please punish us, Madam."

Yang Qi sat in the back, expressionless, but snorted coldly in his heart. Yang Jing's words were a retreat in order to advance. She wanted to act pitiful, but today, her plan would ultimately fail.

The old lady looked at An Xiaoqiu's attitude and became even angrier. She slammed the table and said, "You're already crying before you even say anything. Your tears are too worthless. Since you know not to look at anything indecent, you should have waited at the back like Lan girl, instead of trying to squeeze into the crowd."

An's people informed Song Hongwen, but they didn't know what happened, and Song Hongwen was also confused. It wasn't until Song Hongwen bumped into the old lady's maid on the road that he learned the whole story.

Hearing that the bastard of the Xiao family saved Yang Jing and An Xiaoqiu, Song Hongwen's face turned very dark. In the capital, women's reputation is taken very seriously. Fortunately, Yang Jing is still young, so the impact of this incident will not be too great.

As for An Xiaoqiu, Song Hongwen never even thought about it. Although Song Hongwen doted on the An family, he did not respect a merchant family like the An family from the bottom of his heart.
