Chapter 48 (1/2)

The old lady asked some questions, and Chu Xi answered them one by one.

The old lady asked, ”why did you and your sister fall into the water by the lake that day?”

”Grandma, granddaughter is wrong!” Chu Xi immediately knelt on the ground and cried, ”My granddaughter could have been swimming, but after falling into the water, her legs were entangled by vines in the water and it was difficult to get away. She choked the water and fainted. Fortunately, the fourth prince saved her. Later, everyone asked her granddaughter. She was surprised and frightened at that time. She was also afraid that the matter of swimming would be known by the family, so she hid it. My granddaughter knew her mistake and hoped her grandmother would give Xi'er another chance to forgive Xi'er , Xi'er won't lie any more. ”

Chu Xi had just recovered from a serious illness. Her small face was pale. At this time, she was crying extremely wronged and sad. The old lady was old. She liked the young people to be friendly and happy. She couldn't bear to see this.

In addition, Chu Xi mentioned the fourth Prince... The old lady had other considerations in her heart. After listening to Qing'er, the fourth Prince looked at Xi'er with unusual eyes, I'm afraid

Fortunately, the fourth Prince is involved at this time. No one outside dares to talk about Xi'er. This matter has little impact on Xi'er's famous festival.

Thinking of this, the old lady asked, ”let me ask you, did Sister Li Wu push you that day?”

Chu Xi's hand hanging on her side tightened slightly. Her eyes were dim, and then she slowly shook her head: ”my granddaughter doesn't know.”

”Don't you know?” the old lady's voice was sharp and fierce. ”The servant girls around saw that your fifth sister pushed you!”

Chu Xi's tears immediately fell down like golden beans. ”My granddaughter didn't know why she fell into the water. She just felt that her feet slipped. Then there was strength. The granddaughter fell into the water the next second. My granddaughter really didn't know. Afterwards, my granddaughter explained that it had nothing to do with sister five. My granddaughter knew that sister five was the most pure person. How could she push my granddaughter?”

Seeing that the old lady was silent, Chu Xi cried: ”if my granddaughter knew that such a big misunderstanding would be caused by concealing that she would swim, my granddaughter would have told me about it. In the end, my granddaughter is bad, which has harmed the reputation of my fifth sister. My granddaughter is wrong. I really know she is wrong...”

Seeing Chu Xi crying out of breath, she almost carried her breath. The old lady couldn't bear it: ”just, you get up first.”

After that, ask the big girl Linglong around to help Chu Xi up and dry her tears.

Then he said, ”since you accidentally slipped into the water, it has nothing to do with your fifth sister. Don't cry. Although you lied wrong, you're not in good health, and your grandmother won't punish you anymore. Later, you go to apologize to your fifth sister. After all, outsiders misunderstood your fifth sister like that. She must not be hurt.”

Chu Xi clenched her teeth and was about to bleed in her heart. She had to say skillfully: ”granddaughter knows.”

The old lady nodded happily: ”that's right. They are all our sisters. They should be friendly and friendly to each other. Besides, your sister has suffered a lot. It's not easy.”

The more the old lady spoke to Chu Zhi, the stronger the resentment at the bottom of Chu Xi's heart.

Just then Chu Zhi came.

”Come in quickly!” seeing Chu Zhi, the old lady smiled, ”your sister came to greet you today. I just asked. It has nothing to do with you. Your sister herself said that she didn't stand well, but you were too close at that time. Outsiders didn't see it clearly, so she misunderstood you.”

As soon as the voice fell, Chu Xi took two steps forward and saluted Chu Zhi: ”say hello to sister five. It's not good for Xi'er to fall into the water. I hope my sister doesn't have to forgive her. My sister already knows she's wrong and won't dare again in the future.”
