When Qin Yining heard this, she slowly put down the teacup in her hand and asked doubtfully, "Didn't I say to invite her in if she comes back? Why is she kneeling in front of the door? "
The person who replied was in a difficult position. He quickly looked up at Qin Yining's expression and saw that she was not angry. He then murmured, "It was fine at first, but when Miss Huining heard that Miss had arranged for her to stay in the guest courtyard, she started crying and asked for Old Madam's help. The people outside did not dare to disturb Old Madam, so they hurriedly came to ask for Miss's instructions. "
"I see."
Qin Yining thought for a while, then instructed Song Lan and Ji Yun, "You two go together and tell Qin Huining that if she wants to stay in the Family Qin Mansion, she will only be a guest. I can only arrange for her to stay in the guest room. If she does not want to come back, then she can do as she pleases. Now that Father is still locked up in the Ministry of Justice's prison, if she is not afraid of being implicated and causing trouble, let her cry at the door." Then he looked at Ji Yun, "Pay attention. If this person dares to be rough, throw her out immediately."
"Yes." Ji Yun laughed and turned around to tease Song Lan, "Miss Song Lan, please. Look at how much Miss dotes on you. She ordered you to do things for her and even assigned you a bodyguard."
Song Lan burst out laughing, "It's clearly a certain Wang Ye's intention. He was afraid that it would be inconvenient for Miss to do things, so he arranged for a bodyguard. Why are you making fun of me?" As she spoke, she curtsied to Qin Yining and turned to leave.
Qin Yining's face was red. She tapped Song Lan's back and said, "Is this girl crazy? She even made fun of me."
Bing Tang laughed loudly.
Ji Yun, who had changed from a bodyguard to a bodyguard, also laughed and chased after Song Lan.
Qin Yining sat in the room and could still hear the two of them making fun of each other.
It seemed like Ji Yun had already integrated into the Master's Study. It was not like when she first came. Everyone was very polite when they met, but there was a sense of distance between them.
Qin Yining thought for a moment, then stood up and called for Bing Tang. "Let's go and take a look."
Bing Tang asked curiously, "Miss, why weren't you with Song Lan and the others just now?" Then he reacted and laughed, "Miss, you're too naughty. You obviously wanted to watch the show!"
Qin Yining also laughed.
Song Lan and Ji Yun arrived at the door. Before they even got close, they heard low sobbing and buzzing discussions outside the door.
The two of them looked at each other and felt that something was amiss.
They walked out of the side door in a few steps and immediately saw Qin Yining and the others kneeling at the door. Behind them, there were more than ten commoners pointing and whispering.
It was too late for Qin Huining to wear the pine hairpin in her hair. Although her clothes were made of good material, she didn't know how they got wrinkled. There was also a two-inch long cut on her sleeve, and her hair was scraped out. Her face was full of aggrieved tears, like a Persian cat abandoned by a rich family. Her originally bright fur was now a mess, and she looked especially pitiful.
When Song Lan saw this, he felt anger rise in his heart. He almost could not help but laugh coldly.
The house was already in such a mess, and this person still wanted to come back and cause trouble!
"Aiyoyo, I was wondering who was causing trouble at the door. So it's Miss Huining." Song Lan went down the stairs and used both hands to help her. "Miss, quickly get up. What's going on? Didn't the house prepare a guest room for Miss to stay in? Why doesn't Miss want to go in? "
Song Lan's voice was louder than usual, and it was loud enough for the people watching the commotion to hear clearly.
Qin Yining's body was still hanging down, and she sobbed, "I'm not going to stay in the guest courtyard. I'm Family Qin's daughter. Why do I have to stay in the guest courtyard? The servants said that Qin Yining is now in charge of the house, so they arranged for me to stay in the guest courtyard? What right does she have to treat me like this? I want to see old madam! Old madam will definitely seek justice for me! "
She sobbed and complained tearfully, as if she had suffered a great grievance.
Song Lan saw that she was unwilling to get up, so he did not help her. He sneered and said, "Huining Miss, your words are so meaningless. Do you still think that you're Family Qin's daughter? Don't talk about the masters being bitterly disappointed. Even if the servants heard it, they would laugh until their teeth fell out! "
"That's right." Ji Yun also said, "The Marquis and Madam doted on you as if you were their own daughter. As long as the ladies in our fu have something, they would never treat you unfairly. You have delicate servants serving you, eating delicacies, and wearing silk and satin, but you're still not satisfied. Not only did you plot to harm our ladies, you even made witchcraft dolls to harm old madam and Madam!"
Ji Yun went down the stairs and said to the commoners who had stopped to watch the commotion, "Everyone, say something. How can this kind of ingrate still have the face to cause trouble!"
The passers-by looked at each other in dismay.
Some people already felt that it was meaningless and went home.
"You, you're slandering me!" Qin Yining's face alternated between red and white. Seeing that a few of the onlookers had left, her heart turned cold. If there wasn't the power of public opinion, she really didn't dare to guarantee that she would be able to live the life of a master when she came back!
Song Lan said, "The Marquis is soft-hearted. You harmed our old madam, madam, and young miss. The Marquis only asked you to move to the manor because of the many years of father-daughter relationship. The Marquis only asked you to move to the manor to live. There is no shortage of food and clothing. If it was someone else who was more hard-hearted, they would throw you outside and let you die. Wouldn't that be what you deserved? Wouldn't you also have to endure it? "
"At this moment, something big has happened in the family. Old madam and Madam are sick and bedridden. The authority to manage the family has been given to our Young Miss. Young Miss is benevolent and kind. Thinking of the chaos outside, she specially instructed people to invite you back to the guest courtyard if you come back. Yet, you're still not satisfied! You still have the face to think that you're the true master of this family? Where did you get such a big face! "
Qin Yining was so angry that her whole body trembled and her face turned purple.
Seeing the onlookers begin to point at her, she actually felt a sense of fear and regret. Perhaps she shouldn't have been greedy and caused this commotion?
But things had already come to this point. If she didn't continue, how could she still have face?
Qin Yining said weakly, "But I …"
Ji Yun interrupted Qin Yining's words and went forward to support her. She didn't seem to use any strength, but Qin Yining was directly lifted up.
"Our Young Miss is busy serving the elders and managing the inner residence. Not to mention, she is also busy settling the refugees in the city. She doesn't even have enough time to sleep. Young Miss said that even if she saw a stranger in trouble, she would still help. Moreover, you were once the Marquis's adopted daughter. Although your behavior is improper, we can't ignore you. The guest courtyard has already been arranged. Young Miss, don't make a fuss. Come in. "
Ji Yun supported Qin Yining's arm, but her fingers pinched Qin Yining's wrist. She couldn't leave a mark, but she also couldn't break free.
Qin Yining's eyes were hazy with tears. She wanted to say something, but when she saw Ji Yun's smiling face that didn't have a trace of a smile, she couldn't say a word. She was brought into the residence.
The few onlookers outside also dispersed. They were still whispering about how outrageous this adopted daughter was.
After all, no one knew if Qin Yining was bullied, but it was true that the Family Qin's Fourth Young Miss sold her property to support the refugees. There were even some trustworthy commoners who specially went to Changchun Mountain to confirm it.
Qin Yining had just entered the residence when she saw Qin Yining wearing a light green robe. She was standing next to a banana tree and was looking at her with a smile. She said gently, "You're back? Quickly go to the guest courtyard to settle down. "
Qin Yining felt like she had been slapped in the face.
Just as she was about to speak, a burst of cheers came from the main entrance. "The Marquis is back! The Marquis is back! Quickly, quickly tell the old madam and young miss! The Marquis is back! "
Qin Yining was stunned when she heard this. Then, she was overjoyed. She lifted her skirt and dashed over like the wind.
