"Second Madam, may I trouble you to bring Fifth Miss to the Flower Hall?" This matter wasn't over yet. They had to go see the general.

Zhong Qing nodded her head, she then sent a servant to call Liu Zhilan over.

As long as her daughter insisted that she did not know, she would not be punished.

When she saw Liu Zhilan, she told him everything in a low voice. She told him to bite the bullet, and not panic, and not let go.

Liu Zhilan's face paled a little. She was extremely afraid of Old Man Liu, so how could she … How could he not panic?

"I... I'm a little scared if... What if I can't help but say it? "

The maidservant frowned, repeatedly warning her not to make a mistake. If he did, the consequences would be dire.

She sighed in her heart. She didn't know what the Miss was thinking, so why would she make a move on such a small thing?

Who didn't know that the Liu Estate's most favored person was Xiao Xiao? Even though she was envious in her heart, she didn't dare to make a move against her. She didn't expect …

I really don't know what to say about Miss, but Madam has to help her take care of the aftermath again.

If this matter was not handled well, the situation in the second branch would become worrisome.

Seeing the servant's serious expression, Liu Zhilan could only nod his head, pursing his lips, he said that she would not speak carelessly.

The maidservant acknowledged and brought her to find Zhong Qing.

As soon as the butler saw Liu Zhilan had arrived, he invited them to the Flower Hall.

When he went to the parlour, he saw Old Man Liu sitting at the head of the table with a solemn expression.

Zhong Qing brought Liu Zhilan and greeted him.

Old Man Liu looked at them quietly, and did not reply.

His entire body released its aura, almost defeating the calm, let alone the young Liu Zhilan.

Her legs kept shaking. She reached out and grabbed Zhong Qing's sleeve, unable to stop herself from crying.

This was too scary. Grandfather was too scary.

Old Man Liu's eyes swept across Liu Zhilan indifferently, and with a low growl, he shut his mouth.

She still had the face to cry? She still had the face to cry after doing such a vicious thing?

Liu Zhilan's body fiercely trembled again as she kept her mouth shut at a speed that was too fast.

Zhong Qing caressed her back in pain, she raised her head slightly and looked at Old Man Liu who had an ashen face, then forced himself to calm down and asked, "Why are you looking for them?"

Old Man Liu coldly pulled back the corners of his mouth, "Did the butler not tell you why? "Hmm?" What are you pretending to be in front of him for? Did she really think that he would not see through her little intelligence?

It was good for a woman to be smart, but this wasn't the right way to use it, so there was no need to be smart.

Clenching her hands slightly, Zhong Qing gritted her teeth and lifted the corner of her lips as she said, "The steward only said one sentence: Father, you were looking for us. We really don't know what business you have with us." At this moment, she didn't have any good ideas, so she could only pretend to be stupid.

As long as nothing happened to his daughter, everything would be fine.

I hope my daughter is smart enough not to drag her down.

"Second brother, I've always felt that you're a smart person, but I also admire that you're a smart person." Old Man Liu said indifferently, "However, sometimes it's better to be muddle-headed, otherwise, you will be fooled by your own intelligence."

Over the years, he might not have known his second brother. Previously, it was for the good of his family. Thus, he chose to turn a blind eye to it and pretended that he didn't know.

Once he got involved, the meaning would be different.

Hearing Old Man Liu's words, Zhong Qing's heart skipped a beat. She maintained her composure on her face, lowered her eyes slightly, and did not speak in a low voice.

Old Man Liu did not care whether she replied or not. He glanced at the mother and daughter pair once more and locked his gaze onto Liu Zhilan's body.

"Zhilan, did you push Xiaoxiao into the lotus pond?"

After saying that, without waiting for Liu Zhilan to say anything, Zhong Qing anxiously opened her mouth, "Father, who is blabbering about this? Without evidence, we can't simply accuse someone unjustly. Xiao Lan has been writing in her room and hasn't stepped out of it. " Her mind quickly thought of a way to let Liu Zhilan safely pa.s.s through this calamity.

She secretly pinched Liu Zhilan with her hands behind her, only then did Liu Qilan react, saying with red eyes that she did not push him into the lotus pond.

As long as she gritted her teeth and didn't say anything about it, she would be fine.

She couldn't bear to disappoint her mother either.

Most importantly, she could not bear her grandfather's anger.

"Is that so?" Old Man Liu laughed in ridicule, his body leaning on the back of the chair, his eyes staring straight at Liu Zhilan, "Don't tell me you were the one who instructed the servant to push away the little girl? Without your permission, why would the servant girl make a move on her own? " Did he think he was a three-year-old child? Deceiving him like this?

"Father …"

"I didn't ask you."

With just these few words, Zhong Qing shut her mouth, not daring to utter another word.

She worriedly looked at her daughter, praying that she would survive Old Man Liu's interrogation.

Liu Zhilan Lan subconsciously glanced at Zhong Qing, then looked at Old Man Liu again in the blink of an eye. She forcefully bit her lower lip, saying that she didn't do this.

Since she said that, Old Man Liu and the others wouldn't be able to do anything to her.

Old Man Liu gave Liu Zhilan a deep look, and then picked up the teacup on the table, and slowly drank two sips. Her profound appearance, had intimidated Zhong Qing and Liu Zhilan.

He wasn't some random cat or dog that could be casually tricked by them.

He wanted to see how long Liu Zhilan could hold out for.

The more he did so, the more uncertain they became. They wondered what would happen next.

After being ignored for a while, Old Man Liu spoke up once again, "Zhi Lan, I'll give you one more chance. Did you instruct the servant girl to push a small amount of water into the Lotus Pond?" If Liu Zhilan had happily admitted it, Old Man Liu would be feeling a lot better, but it was a pity …

Liu Zhilan nervously tugged at her hair, then gently shook her head, indicating that it was not her.

She could not admit it. She absolutely could not admit it. Once she admitted it, she would be done for.

"Really?"

"Really."

"Very good." Old Man Liu put the teacup back on the table and stared at Liu Zhilan. The killing intent that surged out from her body forced the mother and daughter pair's faces to turn pale, "This matter is only at the third stage, I have already given you three chances, if you don't take advantage of them, don't blame me."

Liu Zhilan tightly clenched her loving hands and cried out that it was not her, not her. She did not push down the lotus pond even a little.

It was the rainbow that was supposed to push it. What did it have to do with her? She wasn't going to take the blame.

Even if … Even if she told Rainbow to push it, she wasn't the culprit. She didn't do anything.

"Father, this little one is your great-granddaughter, and Xiao Lan is your granddaughter. You cannot unjustly accuse Xiao Lan of wrongdoing." To pamper a girl to such an extent, how could he not be afraid of spoiling her? He was extremely dissatisfied with Old Man Liu, "Everything was based on evidence, Father, do you have any evidence to prove that it was Xiao Lan's servant girl who pushed you?"

She could not panic, she could not panic. If she panicked, her daughter would be in trouble. Her daughter still had to rely on her, she absolutely could not panic.

Zhong Qing quietly inhaled, and raised her head to meet Old Man Liu's gaze. She tried her best to calm herself down, and absolutely could not panic.

Old Man Liu coldly snorted and said, since you guys want evidence, then I'll give you guys evidence.

Hearing this, Zhong Qing's heart skipped a beat. Could there really be evidence?

She then looked at Old Man Liu again, unable to discern anything from his gloomy expression.

Lifting his hand, Old Man Liu snapped his fingers, and a man dressed in a black robe suddenly appeared in the hall, scaring the mother and daughter pair.

"Second brother, you should know the ident.i.ties of these people, right?"

How could he not know? A hint of panic flashed across Zhong Qing's eyes. She stiffly pulled the corner of her mouth and said, "Understood."

She didn't expect that the little brat would have a guard protecting her, so why should she? Why should he?

At this moment, she had a grudge against Old Man Liu for being too biased.

His heart was focused on the fourth house.

If not for this, she wouldn't have disliked the fourth wife.

"Very good …" Old Man Liu raised his eyebrows, he had thought that the second brother would deny it, hmph. He was sensible, "These are the guards at Xiaoxiao's side, their every move cannot escape his notice."

He glanced at the dark guard. The dark guard had received his instructions and told him everything.

The more he spoke, the paler Liu Zhilan's complexion became.

She … She did it in such a secretive manner, why … How could he be discovered?

He even knew it clearly.

Then she … What should she do?

With that said, Old Man Liu waved his hand towards the hidden guards, and in the next moment, the hidden guards disappeared from the hall.

Seeing the guards who came and left without a trace, Liu Zhilan became even more afraid.

She raised her head to look at Zhong Qing. The only person that could save her was her mother.

"Silan, what else do you have to say?"

Hearing Old Man Liu's voice, Liu Zhilan's reflective body trembled, and said in a sobbing tone. She did not know about this, it was … The rainbow had done it behind her back.

In Old Man Liu's heart, those who dared to do anything were the good descendants of the Liu Family. If they did something wrong, they would bravely admit it, and not push it onto someone else.

This was not like the att.i.tude of the Liu Family.

Seeing Old Man Liu's expression, Zhong Qing secretly cursed in his heart. He pinched Liu Zhilan's hand, telling her to shut up, and then spoke out for himself: "Father, you can call the servant Rainbow to confront us together." Since Rainbow was dead, they weren't afraid of anything.

Hearing that, Old Man Liu gave a faint smile as he glanced at Zhong Qing. This glance caused Zhong Qing's heart to fiercely jump, as a bad premonition welled up within her.

Immediately after, she did her best to suppress it, lowered her eyes, and waited for Old Man Liu's reply.

"Didn't the maidservants hang themselves before you arrived? How could a dead man confront him? Second brother, tell me … "

Quietly sighing, Zhong Qing lowered her head, saying that she was too nervous and had forgotten about this matter. Before coming here, Rainbow had already committed suicide out of guilt.

With Rainbow dead, there was no way to confront her and no way to blame her.

Thinking of this, Zhong Qing's heart became calmer. "Dad, this is the fault of my daughter-in-law. Later, she will take Xiaolan to apologize to Xiao Lan." They could accept apologizing for such a small matter.
