Qin Yining's imposing manner scared Qin Huining so much that his face paled and he shook his head.
"You don't dare. What right do you have to speak like that? Who are you in this family? There's old madam, father, and mother. What right do you have to punish me! Grandmother! She wants to kill me! Quickly save me! "
Qin Huining was about to get up and run inside to ask for help.
Qin Yining grabbed him by the collar and casually threw him aside in a seemingly relaxed manner. Qin Huining retreated several steps and fell in the middle of the courtyard.
"Try shouting again!"
His harsh words scared Qin Huining silly. She no longer dared to make a ruckus. She only knew how to cover her face and cry in grievance.
The surrounding servants were all frightened and didn't dare to breathe loudly. In the courtyard, Qin Yining called out to the Sun Clan in a gentle tone that was completely different from before. "Mother, don't be afraid. The doctor will be here soon."
Mammy Qin looked at Qin Huining and quietly entered the room.
"Old madam, what's going on outside?"
Old madam shook her head and sighed, "I'm really disappointed in Sister Hui. Now that I've calmed down and thought about what happened just now, wasn't it because she mentioned Brother Meng that I was so angry that I spoke without thinking? This isn't the first time she's done this. "
Mammy Qin secretly thought: You're not doing anything now because you didn't see with your own eyes how Fourth Young Miss knocked out a person's tooth.
She only dared to criticize silently, but she still had to reply.
"It's just that Miss Huining just had a tooth knocked out by Fourth Young Miss."
"Ah?" Old madam stood up in surprise.
She could hear the noise outside, but she couldn't see the scene.
Sister Hui actually knocked out a tooth?!
Old madam hurriedly wanted to go out.
Mammy Qin held old madam's arm and said softly, "Old madam, you're not feeling well today. You were also angered by First Madam. You can't go out now. It won't be good if you catch a cold. I think Fourth Young Miss has a plan and a sense of propriety. When she makes a move, won't she teach Miss Huining a lesson for you? "
"But Sister Hui …"
"Old madam, the reason why Miss Huining dares to sow discord between us is because she has nothing to fear because of your favor. It was time to teach her a lesson and see if she would restrain herself. Moreover, don't you want to see Fourth Miss' way of doing things? In any case, this servant really wants to see if Fourth Young Miss will be like First Old Master when he was young. "
Speaking of Qin Huaiyuan was the Dowager Duchess's weakness.
When Qin Huaiyuan was young and impetuous, he had dealt with several old concubines with thunderous methods. If anyone dared to touch her, as his son, he would be the first to be unwilling and play with them to death.
Old madam smiled, "Sister Yi is very similar to Brother Meng. She takes after her father in terms of filial piety."
"That's right." Mammy Qin helped old madam sit down and said, "It won't be too late for you to make a decision after seeing the situation. Moreover, it's not like you don't care about Miss Huining. Let her learn a lesson first. It's not too late for you to help her in her hour of need."
Old madam thought about it and felt that it was reasonable. She nodded and sighed.
The girl she had watched grow up with her own eyes had become such a scheming person. She even schemed against her mother, who had raised her for 14 years. Family Qin had never treated her unfairly. Her food and clothes were better than those of the girls in the fu, but she still wasn't satisfied.
It was time to teach her a lesson.
While they were talking, Ji Xiang ran over with Bing Tang.
After checking on the Sun Clan's situation, Bing Tang took out a simple and old wooden box. He opened it and took out a long and thin silver needle. He pricked the Sun Clan's body a few times and inserted the needle into her philtrum.
The Sun Clan exhaled and dazedly opened her eyes.
Everyone couldn't help but exclaim, "Big Madam is awake!"
There were also people who didn't know the inside story who secretly praised Qin Yining's maidservant for having such amazing medical skills.
"Mother! You're awake? Are you okay? "Qin Yining happily took her hand and carefully helped her sit up.
The Sun Clan shook her head and leaned on Qin Yining's shoulder. Her voice was still a bit hoarse, "I'm fine. What's wrong with me?"
Bing Tang smiled and said, "Madam has been too tired and sad these days. Naturally, your body can't take it. Your foundation is very good, so your body is fine. It's just that your emotions are affected. You'll be fine after resting for two days. "
The Sun Clan was still angry when she thought about what happened just now. However, she was powerless and couldn't make a fuss anymore. She could only nod her head.
"Bing Tang, go tell someone to prepare a small sedan chair."
As soon as Qin Yining finished speaking, Ru Yi brought over a warm sedan chair with a sturdy female servant. She smiled and said, "Mammy Qin has already ordered this servant to prepare it. The doctor has already arrived at Xingning Garden. Big Madam, please get on the sedan chair."
Qin Yining didn't ask for help. He put his hands under the Sun Clan's armpits and directly lifted her up. He then helped her into the sedan chair. He bowed and lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, saying,
"Mother, go back and rest. I'll ask Bing Tang to go back with you. After I'm done with the mess here, I'll immediately go and serve you."
The Sun Clan nodded and tiredly leaned against the wall of the sedan chair that was covered with a dark green velvet cloth.
Qin Yining patted Bing Tang's hand and said, "Help me take care of her."
Bing Tang smiled and said, "I know. Don't worry, Miss."
After watching them leave, Qin Yining glanced at the main room that hadn't responded. He thought for a moment and a cold smile appeared on his lips. He turned around and grabbed Qin Huining by the collar and lifted her up from the ground.
Qin Huining was so scared that she screamed, "What are you doing! Mother has already woken up! This is Grandmother's courtyard. How dare you be so presumptuous! "
Qin Yining didn't say a word. He grabbed her hair and walked out until the hairpins on her temples fell to the ground.
Her hand pressed down on Qin Huining's head. Qin Huining could only follow with a bent back. She scratched wildly but couldn't catch Qin Yining. She screamed and struggled like a prey being carried by a hunter.
The head maidservant Ji Xiang and Ru Yi were stunned!
They had been in the Qin Manor for so many years, but they had never seen such a young miss with such strange strength!
The two hurriedly went into the room to report.
"Matriarch, Fourth Young Miss is pulling Miss Huining's hair and pulling her away!"
Matriarch finally couldn't sit still.
"Let's quickly go and take a look. Don't kill her!"
Mammy Qin was also somewhat worried. Could Fourth Young Miss really be impulsive and chop her up?
She grabbed a cloak and draped it over the matriarch's shoulders. Then, together with Ji Xiang and Ru Yi, she helped her out.
Some curious maidservants and older female servants followed Qin Yining out of Ci Xiao Garden and followed him all the way to the back garden.
It was winter now. Although the surface of the water wasn't as thick as it was in the north, there were still ice shards in the pond.
Qin Yining came to the side of the lotus pond and directly threw him in without saying a word.
With a plop, Qin Huining's entire body fell into the lotus pond full of mud, remnants of lotus, and ice shards.
The water wasn't deep and only reached his waist. However, Qin Huining fell in horizontally.
He was scared stiff and had the instinct to survive. When the matriarch rushed over, she only saw Qin Huining struggling in the lotus pond and shouting for help.
Qin Yining stood on the shore and sneered, "You won't die. Stand up."
Qin Huining struggled for a long time before hesitantly standing up. Only then did she realize that the water only reached her waist. She immediately became angry and embarrassed. All kinds of emotions turned into resentment.
Her muddy and battered appearance was seen by Second Furen, Third Furen, Third Furen, Sixth Furen, Seventh Furen, and Eighth Furen, who had just rushed over after hearing the news.
The womenfolk were also scared stiff.
Mammy Qin frowned and ordered, "What are you all standing there for? Quickly pull Miss Huining up!"
Seeing that the matriarch had come, Qin Huining had a backbone. She went up to the shore and squatted on the ground. Then, she hugged her shoulders and sobbed. She looked like she was scared stiff and only knew how to cry.
Qin Yining said, "I let you go down just to wash your mouth, brain, and heart with this muddy pond!"
Qin Huining sobbed even louder.
"The Family Qin raised you for fourteen years and never treated you unfairly. Even if you're no longer the legitimate daughter, the matriarch, father, and mother have never thought of sending you back to the Health Hall. You don't know how to be grateful. Instead, you instigated the relationship between mother and the matriarch. Are you still worthy of being called a human?! "
Qin Huining shook her head, "I know you hate me, but what crime did I commit?!"
"You were indeed innocent when you were exchanged, but what did you do? I don't hate you. You don't deserve to be hated by me. I will only kill you! "
Qin Huining hugged her knees and cried until her whole body trembled.
Qin Yining sneered, "You don't have to use that delicate and pitiful act. I'm a barbarian. I don't like it. Since the matriarch and all my sisters are here today, I'll say it here. If I find out that you instigated trouble and used mother again in the future, it won't be as simple as today!"
Was this simple?
Not to mention that one of her teeth was knocked out, she was also thrown into the lotus pond to eat ice water and mud. What would it be like if it wasn't simple?!
"You dare!" Qin Huining finally raised her head. She was trembling like a sieve.
"Don't you know whether I dare or not?"
Qin Yining knelt down in front of the matriarch and said sincerely, "Granddaughter's behavior was disagreeable. I know that I was wrong. Asking the matriarch to punish me."
For a moment, the matriarch didn't know whether she should punish her or not.
Her appearance was 70% similar to the young Qin Huaiyuan. Her imposing manner of not allowing anyone to hurt her mother made the matriarch think of herself and her eldest son in the past.
The matriarch also knew that Qin Huining really needed a powerful person to deal with her. Otherwise, the inner residence might be stirred up by her.
Thinking of this, she frowned and said, "Although you're reasonable, your methods are too ruthless. You threw her into the lotus pond on such a cold day. Aren't you afraid of making her sick? "She actually didn't mention that tooth.
"Yes, granddaughter knows her mistake." Qin Yining instantly understood the matriarch's thoughts and secretly let out a sigh of relief.
Qin Huining raised her head and looked at the matriarch in disbelief. "Grandmother, don't you love me anymore?! How can you treat me like this?! "
The matriarch looked at her miserable appearance, which was covered in dirt. She felt distressed and angry. "Sister Hui, I watched you grow up. I know what you're thinking. You're on your own. "She then instructed everyone," Everyone, disperse. What are you all gathered here for?! "
After saying this, she actually led Mammy Qin, Ji Xiang, and Ru Yi away. She had no intention of punishing Qin Yining at all.
Second Madam, Third Madam, Third Miss, and the others, who weren't clear about today's matter, now understood that Qin Huining must have done something to court disaster again. Even the matriarch wasn't willing to help her.
Qin Yining bowed to her two aunts and cousins and explained that the Sun Clan had fainted today and needed to immediately attend to them. The sisters were also concerned and followed Qin Yining to Xingning Garden.
Qin Huining was carried back to Snow Pear Courtyard in a small sedan chair by Fugui and Caiyun, who had rushed over after hearing the news.
When the back garden quieted down, Qin Huaiyuan and Yuchi Yan brought their respective attendants and came out from the rockery not far behind the lotus pond.
