As soon as the old madam spoke, it caused the second madam to frown.
Seventh Young Lady even lowered her head with a red face.
The Sun Clan couldn't bear it anymore and slammed the table and stood up, "Is this something that the old madam should say to your granddaughter? To think that you're a grandmother! "
"What does my grandmother have to do with you? You've raised such a good daughter, but she's already doing such a despicable thing before she's even married. She seduced a man in public and even let so many people in the capital see it. As the old lord of this family, is it wrong for me to ask? "
"You!" The Sun Clan was so angry that they wanted to tear the old madam's mouth apart, "You have to speak with a conscience. Sister Yi didn't want to go to Xi Hua City for the peace talks. The old madam knows very well how she went! If I had known that the old madam was going to slander my daughter like this, I wouldn't have let Sister Yi obey the imperial edict for the safety of the Family Qin. So many men couldn't do it for the sake of the country. Why did my daughter have to sacrifice herself to participate in the peace talks?!
"Now, a pure and innocent girl is being gossiped about by others. Even you, her biological grandmother, aren't willing to let her go. You have to pat your conscience. Is this the right thing to do? Yes, you are right. The old madam is so powerful. She gave birth to such a good son like Qin Meng. How can she be wrong? We are the ones who are wrong! We should have directly resisted the imperial edict! We should have dragged your Family Qin to be buried with her!! "
"What a Sun Clan! You have such a sharp tongue to slander your mother-in-law. I must open the ancestral hall and divorce you! "
"You wanted to divorce me long ago! You couldn't do it at that time. Try again now! I am now a first-rank noble lady. My chastity memorial arch is still erected outside the Family Qin. You want to divorce me? Dream on! "
"You unfilial slut!"
…
The old madam and the Sun Clan started to scold each other like this.
Second Madam and Seventh Young Miss were both shocked by this scene. For a moment, they even forgot to quarrel.
Qin Yining, on the other hand, was much calmer. She pulled Sun Clan back a few steps and helped her sit down with a smile. She brought a cup of tea to Sun Clan and said, "Mother, please calm down. Old madam is my good grandmother. This is the first time I've seen someone talk about her granddaughter like this. I still have to thank old madam for her teachings. Mother, don't be angry. "
Qin Yining had thought things through.
With the dispute over the matter of the Sun Clan being beheaded, the two of them, grandfather and grandson, had completely shed all pretense of cordiality. Qin Yining no longer held any hope for the Old Madam; therefore, he spoke without any mercy.
Old madam snorted, "Just answer whatever I ask you. As a grandmother, I will also plan for the future of the family of young ladies. Don't fail to appreciate my kindness! "
"Many thanks for old madam's good intentions. However, I feel that old madam shouldn't have seen the 'business opportunity' of Prince Zhongshun and want to sell your granddaughter for a good price to obtain greater benefits for the Family Qin, right?"
The Old Madam was so angry that smoke was coming out of her seven orifices. She pointed at Qin Yining and scolded angrily, "You wild girl with no parents to teach you! Don't get carried away! Little Wang Ye said a few good words and you can't find north anymore? Don't forget your surname and your name! Don't you know what kind of thing you are? Once you leave the Family Qin, will Little Wang Ye give you a second look? "
"Who has such a big tone and can actually make decisions for This King?" Outside the pavilion, Huzi lifted the bamboo curtain.
Pang Xiao had changed into a dark blue outfit. His hair was tied up high and hung down behind his back. Compared to his elegant and noble appearance just now, he was more like an unsheathed sharp blade.
When old madam saw Pang Xiao come, she stood up in astonishment and couldn't say a word.
Pang Xiao carefully sized up old madam and said with a smile, "It seems that the rumors are true. You really don't treat Sister Yi well."
Just an ordinary statement made old madam's face turn pale.
She was afraid of Pang Xiao. Not only because of Pang Xiao's evil reputation that could make children stop crying, but also because of the past when Qin Huaiyuan used a scheme to get rid of Feng Zhongzheng. This was also the reason why old madam didn't believe that Qin Yining would be favored by Pang Xiao.
The hatred of killing one's father was absolutely irreconcilable. She didn't believe that Pang Xiao wouldn't care about what happened in the past. If he took revenge, how could their Family Qin endure it? In the current situation, even the Emperor had to lower his head in front of Pang Xiao, let alone their Family Qin.
Old madam had lived like a princess these years. Qin Huaiyuan was extremely filial and rarely bothered her with things. Therefore, old madam, who hadn't experienced any major events for many years, was like a prey targeted by a fierce tiger when facing Pang Xiao, whose eyes were sharp as if he could eat people at any time. She completely lost the courage to resist. She was so scared that her whole body was trembling, her head was dizzy, and she couldn't speak.
Pang Xiao coldly snorted. In the end, old madam was Qin Yining's grandmother, so he didn't continue to scare her. If she really scared Qin Yining to death, it would be hard to explain when he went back.
Pang Xiao waved his hand. Huzi immediately understood and brought in a young and beautiful maidservant from outside.
The maidservant was sixteen or seventeen years old. She looked like a spring onion with a thin figure and a beautiful appearance. Her eyes were especially bright.
"This servant greets Miss." The maidservant knelt down and saluted.
Pang Xiao said, "This is Ji Yun. Let her serve you in the future."
"Thank you, Wang Ye, for your kindness. I already have enough servants by my side. I don't need another one."
"I'll pay for the monthly salary. She has some skills. She can protect you and help you do things. Be obedient. You're not allowed to refuse!"
Qin Yining frowned and pursed her lips. He was still so overbearing.
Pang Xiao saw that she seemed unhappy and realized that his words just now were too tough. He quickly remedied, "I'm doing this for your own good. If anyone dares to bully you in the future, you don't have to endure it. When you can use your hands, don't use your mouth to avoid wasting your energy. If you're angry, just ask Ji Yun to kill her. Don't be polite."
"You …" Qin Yining was so astonished that she didn't know what to say.
Pang Xiao seemed to be able to see Qin Yining's concerns. His index finger lightly touched her delicate chin. He leaned closer to her and said, "Remember, even if you poke a hole in the sky, I can support you."
Qin Yining continuously retreated and avoided Pang Xiao's finger. She also avoided the temperature that seemed to have suddenly risen around him.
Old madam, second madam, and seventh young miss were already stunned.
No one would have thought that Pang Xiao would actually indulge Qin Yining like this.
Old madam's lips moved. She wanted to say something, but second madam pulled her hand.
Second madam was born in a scholarly family. Normally, she wasn't like third madam who would curry favor with old madam. Old madam also didn't like her very much. However, second madam's grip really made old madam's heart tremble.
That's right. At this time, it was best not to say anything. They couldn't provoke this evil fetus. Otherwise, with his temperamental and murderous temperament, it was hard to say if they would be able to return home.
Pang Xiao turned around and ordered, "Go tell the servants to prepare a carriage. This King will personally send Miss Qin and Marchioness of Anping back to the fu."
"Yes." Huzi immediately bowed and went to prepare.
Pang Xiao then turned to look at old madam and smiled, "As for you, do as you please."
After speaking, he didn't wait for old madam's response. He turned around and lifted the curtain to leave.
Qin Yining supported the members of the Sun Clan. Mother Jin, who was already stunned, and Bing Tang, who was about to suffer internal injuries from holding back his laughter, followed behind them. They left the courtyard and walked on a path filled with peach blossoms.
Pang Xiao walked at the front. His figure was tall and straight. When he walked, his imposing manner was awe-inspiring. He was like a fierce tiger coming down the mountain, making people not to underestimate him.
This kind of person, who could be considered a threat to outsiders, always catered to her carefully and lowered his posture in front of her. In reality, if Pang Xiao really wanted her, she believed that with one word, he could have the Dayan Dynasty Emperor wrap her up and send her to him. However, Pang Xiao didn't do this. He would rather discredit himself in front of others to support her. He also indulged her several times.
Qin Yining didn't have a heart of stone. How could he not be moved?
Although she didn't like Pang Xiao's high-profile actions, she could feel his intentions.
Looking at his back, Qin Yining furrowed her brows thoughtfully.
Pang Xiao seemed to feel something. He turned around and met Qin Yining's gaze, which hadn't had time to withdraw.
When their eyes met, Pang Xiao didn't seem to care at all as he turned around and continued down the mountain. However, his accelerated heartbeat betrayed his nervousness and excitement.
With that kind of gaze, Qin Yining should also have feelings for her, right?
The members of the Sun Clan were supported by their daughters. They wanted to say something several times but stopped. In the end, they could only sigh.
As for the old madam and the others, Huzi had already ordered people to keep them at the back. They weren't allowed to get close to Qin Yining. It was clear that Pang Xiao wasn't joking when he said to let them do as they pleased.
The old madam's brows were tightly knitted into knots. She felt that she had lost all the face she had accumulated in several lifetimes.
Even if she didn't like Qin Yining and felt that Qin Yining was too smart and difficult to manipulate, in the end, Qin Yining was still the daughter of their Family Qin. This Little Wang Ye's leniency towards Qin Yining and his ruthlessness towards others formed a sharp contrast. Such a sharp contrast made the old madam have to be on guard.
Not to mention other things, that maidservant named Ji Yun couldn't be allowed to stay.
The old madam kept thinking as she walked. It wasn't until she got on the carriage that she realized that she, Second Madam, Seventh Young Miss, Mammy Qin, and the others had all been left far behind by Pang Xiao and Qin Yining.
When she lifted the blue embroidered curtain on the window of the carriage, she actually saw Pang Xiao leading more than a dozen people on horseback and following around the carriage that Qin Yining and the Sun Clan were in. Even that maidservant named Ji Yun was riding a horse. Moreover, she looked valiant and formidable. She was indeed a martial artist!
The old madam was so angry that her head was buzzing. She said fiercely, "Let's slow down. Let them go first. Let them be complacent. I want to see how they will deal with this in the future!"
"Yes." The coachman obeyed and slowed down.
In the front, Qin Yining, who was riding in the same carriage as the Sun Clan, tightly pursed his lips.
This person was too overbearing. He didn't ask for her permission when doing things. Fortunately, he was in Da Zhou all year round. If he stayed for more Dayan, wouldn't she be angered to death?
Although she thought this in a fit of pique, the smile and gentleness in Qin Yining's eyes couldn't be hidden. This made the Sun Clan inwardly apprehensive.
From the looks of it, even Qin Huaiyuan didn't clearly oppose it. Pang Xiao even confessed to Qin Yining in such a high-profile manner. In the future, was she really going to have an evil son-in-law?
The carriage was escorted by Pang Xiao all the way back to the Family Qin Residence. This truly alarmed everyone in the residence.
