Chapter Twenty: It's All My Fault
Chen Jinyan scolded again.
Chen Jinge stepped forward to pull her and whispered: "Sister, calm down."
"How can I be calm? My cousins have been bullied like this. If we hadn't come here, I don't know how they would have bullied people. Can you bully people like this just because you are the daughter of Pingnan Palace? Don't forget this place.
It’s still the Duke’s Mansion!”
Chen Jinyan glared at Gu Jiaojiao.
I have never felt this woman was so annoying for a moment.
At this time, she completely forgot that her mother was discussing marriage with Prince Pingnan. It was very likely that she would marry into Prince Pingnan, and Gu Jiaojiao would most likely become her sister-in-law.
She just wanted to vent her anger on Xin Nianyan and couldn't let her cousin be bullied like this.
"Miss Jinyan, please calm down. I think there must be some misunderstanding." Zhang Yunhui hurriedly came out to smooth things over.
"Misunderstanding. We just saw our cousin being beaten by them until she vomited blood. Do you think there is any misunderstanding? Is it because we are blind?" Chen Jinyan asked in return.
Zhang Yunhui opened her mouth. The incident happened so suddenly that she had no choice but to ask Xin Rouer what happened with her eyes.
Xin Rouer was almost furious. Her body was shaking with anger, but her face still had a look of aggrievedness.
"Cousin Jinyan, you misunderstood. We really didn't bully our sister."
However, Gu Jiaojiao pushed Xin Rou'er away, stood up and said angrily: "I think you are just blind. Didn't you see that it was she who beat us? I didn't even touch her, she fell down on her own.
Vomiting blood, who are you kidding!"
Xin Nianyan bit her lip, pulled Chen Jinyan and said: "Cousin, you...I, Miss Gu is right, I fell down myself, it's none of their business."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked strange.
They are not blind, they did see Gu Jiaojiao beating Xin Nianyan just now.
Now she still looks domineering, but now Miss Xin has been bullied like this, and she still defends them, saying she is either scared of being beaten or she is really kind.
No matter which one it was, they all felt that Gu Jiaojiao shouldn't go so far.
As for Xin Rou'er, her face was already glowing, but now she didn't even mess up her hair, and she looked like she had been wronged.
If it had been in the past, maybe everyone would have believed it.
But now with Xin Nianyan as a comparison, her appearance seems fake no matter how you look at it.
"Cousin, are you stupid? You have been bullied like this and you still speak for them!" Chen Jinyan hated the iron.
"Cousin, I..."
Xin Nianyan wanted to say something more, but Chen Jinyan didn't listen.
Let Xiaozhu help Xin Nianyan, she stepped forward and asked Gu Jiaojiao: "She beat you? Miss Gu, don't you understand the situation first when you slander someone? How can she beat you like this?
If we hadn't arrived just in time, I'm afraid she would have been maimed by you."
"You fart, I didn't even touch her with my hand!"
"Why did she fall down without touching her? Why did she vomit blood?"
"you……"
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Mu Fuliu hurriedly grabbed Chen Jinyan: "Jinyan."
Mrs. Pingnan Wang also pulled away from Gu Jiaojiao.
"Mrs. Chen, Miss Xin, what happened today is indeed my daughter's fault. I will take my daughter to apologize to Miss Xin. I also hope that Miss Xin will not argue with her. I will teach her well when I get back."
Although what Chen Jinyan said just now made her feel uncomfortable, it was indisputable that so many people saw Gu Jiaojiao beating Xin Nianyan and vomiting blood.
If she doesn't stand up and apologize, I'm afraid Jiaojiao will only end up with a reputation as an arrogant and domineering evil girl.
Although she is engaged, she has not yet left the court. If a woman who has not yet left the court has such a reputation, life in her husband's family will only be difficult in the future.
Mrs. Gu only thought about her daughter, but she didn't expect that Gu Jiaojiao didn't think she was wrong at all, let alone her mother admitting her mistake.
"Mom, I'm not wrong. Why do you have to apologize to her? It was she who beat us, and my body is still hurting."
It was obviously her who was beaten, why should she apologize?
Mrs. Gu frowned and whispered: "Jiaojiao."
"Mother..." Gu Jiaojiao was angry and unwilling.
Zhang Yunhui rolled her eyes and asked: "I'm looking at Miss Gu, her face is indeed a little bad, there are slap marks on her face, Rou'er, what is going on? Who of you hit whom? Tell the truth."
Come, otherwise Mrs. Chen will be angry."
She deliberately pointed out the slap marks on Gu Jiaojiao's face and asked Xin Rouer to tell the story again.
When everyone heard this, their eyes fell on Gu Jiaojiao's face again.
It was so messy just now that I didn't even notice it, but now when I looked at it, I saw a clear slap mark.
Xin Rouer bit her lip, looked at Gu Jiaojiao, then at Xin Nianyan, and finally sighed and said: "That's it, Miss Gu and I were going out for a walk, but we didn't want to meet my sister. We wanted to follow
My sister said hello, but I don’t know if she didn’t hear it and ignored us. Miss Gu just said a few words to her, and then..."
She paused, looked at Xin Nianyan carefully, and continued: "Then there was a conflict. Sister... she slapped Miss Gu..."
She hesitated to speak. She didn't say anything, but she pointed all the fingers at Xin Nianyan.
Everyone looked at each other with suspicion on their faces.
"Sister, you..." Xin Nianyan's eyes widened, full of surprise, as if she didn't expect Xin Rou'er to say that.
Then she smiled bitterly and leaned softly against Xiaozhu.
"Yes, my sister is right, it's all my fault, cough...pff..."
As soon as she spoke, she coughed up another mouthful of blood.
Xiao Zhu was so frightened that she hurriedly said: "Miss, Miss, are you okay? Miss Wuwu, don't scare Xiao Zhu."
Others were too frightened and refused to invite. Mu Fuliu quickly shouted to the servants: "Go and ask for the doctor quickly."
Xin Nianyan wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, shook her head at them, and said weakly: "Auntie, I'm fine. Don't worry. Since my sister said that, don't blame my sister and Miss Gu. They are indeed mine.
wrong."
"Miss, it's not your fault. It's obviously them. They came here deliberately to block you. They want you to kneel down and apologize. They want you to go out and tell everyone that the rumors outside in the past few days are all intentional to frame the second lady.
Released."
"If you don't agree, Miss Gu will slap you. Xiao Zhu feels sorry for Miss and slaps her for her. Miss Gu accidentally slapped Miss Gu to protect Xiao Zhu. It's not your fault, it's Xiao Zhu's fault.
It’s Zhu’s fault…”
Xiaozhu told everything in one breath, and cried while holding Xin Nianyan.
After everyone listened, there was nothing they didn’t understand.
