Qiao Liangjin also followed the direction of her finger and looked over, and laughed: ”Look, you're being dishonest again, who doesn't know that these three young misses are our mansion's two great misses, how could they have this kind of collusion with you?”
At this moment, in order to save his life, the man did not care about the sinister and cold eyes of Chong Zhen. He pointed at the three women and said, ”It was that red dress.”
Everyone turned to look and all they saw was Qiao Yue-er wearing red clothes. Upon hearing these words, she shook her head in astonishment and burst into tears. ”I didn't …” Father … ”I did not …”
The man continued indignantly, ”You came to find me at the back door the day before yesterday wearing this red. Although you were wearing a cloak, I saw your skirt.”
Qiao Yue-er was startled. She suddenly raised her hand and pointed at Qiao Ya as she shouted, ”It's you! Today you made me wear this dress. You said it was the most appropriate for my skin color.”
Qiao Ya's face was still in a panicked state. Hearing Qiao Yue-er's testimony, she said in surprise, ”Little sister, you can eat whatever you want and never say whatever you want. You're the only one in this mansion with clothes.”
Qiao Yue-er glared hatefully at Qiao Ya. Her brows were tightly locked together. She did not understand how she had been splashed with dirty water.
On the other side, her chastity could no longer bear to see the two sisters shunning each other. She slammed her palm on the table and shouted, ”Enough!”
chastity's voice was especially loud, causing everyone in the room to be stunned. It had been fifteen years since she had married into the Prime Minister's Palace, and she had always been considerate and gentle. Everyone was at a loss from her words.
Only then did chastity lose her composure, she pressed her chest and lowered her voice, ”Master, it is my responsibility, I did not educate my two daughters well …”
Qiao Liangjin knew that her chastity was about to take a detour to save the country. She sneered, ”If apologies are useful, why would we need a police officer?”
Qiao Zheng was angry to begin with but this Prime Minister's house did not look as calm as it looked. He turned around and returned to his seat, his fingers gently stroking the armrest of his chair as he looked at the crowd.
Qiao Mao Shan and Lin Fang Li looked at each other as they quietly moved towards the door. Just when they were about to leave, the feeling of wanting to see a joke had already disappeared and they were accidentally dragged into the pit by Qiao Liangjin. Perhaps they might even be chased out of the Prime Minister's residence.
Qiao Liangjin, who was standing beside Qiao Xinting, turned her head slightly and swept a glance at her. Qiao Xinting's gaze was firm as she looked at Qiao Zheng, while the hand that held Guo Caiting's hand trembled slightly.
Qiao Liangjin suddenly felt a little bitter. Had she gone too far? To let a thirteen-year-old girl, a child in her own generation, face a complicated family and face a conspiracy like this.
Qiao Xinting took a step forward and kneeled heavily on the ground. Then, she kowtowed three times. With a soft and firm voice, she said, ”Father, please give me justice.”
Qiao Liangjin could not help but reveal an appreciative smile. This move was undoubtedly a trump card at this moment, forcing Qiao Zheng to use it heavily.
Qiao Zheng signaled for Ah Qing to help Qiao Xinting up and let out a long sigh. ”My family is unlucky, Yuanyuan Xin. Three months from now, it will be the old mistress' birthday. Take Ya Er and Yue'er to Jinshan Temple for a long Ramadan, to dispel the hostility in your two daughters' hearts.”
She thought that no matter what, she was the first wife of the Prime Minister. As long as she opened her mouth, her two daughters would be grounded for at most a few months. She didn't expect them to leave the city and go to the Jinshan Temple at the foot of the mountain 600 miles away.
When Qiao Ya and Qiao Yue-er heard this, they recalled that it would be the first month of January in a few days. They frantically knelt on the ground and pleaded with tears in their eyes, ”Father, we … ”We're still young, my sister and I haven't done anything …”
After saying that, Qiao Ya suddenly turned around and viciously pointed at the man behind her. She shouted, ”Big Sis must have bribed him to slander us.”
Qiao Liangjin did not seem to mind her words at all. Rabbits would bite if they were anxious. It was just that Qiao Ya was in a state of confusion and had committed a grave mistake, just so happening to meet Qiao Zheng's taboo.
If, at this moment, Qiao Ya and Qiao Yue-er had not argued and instead cried out that they were lost in their own thoughts, they might have been able to easily deal with today's matters. However, these two girls were foolish enough to do the opposite.
When her chastity saw that Qiao Ya was accusing the man, she anxiously rushed forward and pressed down on Qiao Ya's arm. Then, she turned around and followed her two daughters to kneel on the ground.
Qiao Zheng's face grew darker and darker. He really did not expect that Qiao Ya and Qiao Yue-er would normally be so obedient and gentle, but now it would seem that they were pretending.
