The Fourth Lady

Seeing Su Qingyan's amused appearance, Huangcen relayed to Qingyan what she had just heard from Qingdai. Although when she spoke, she added a lot of vivid details, making the original, difficult to understand, matters sound more dramatic.

As Qingyan listened, even she found it amusing.

Qingyan, after listening to Huangcen's words, roughly understood what Ning Siyao was planning to do, "Zizhu, no need to prepare the things for school today anymore."

With Ning Siyao having stirred up such troubles, how could she still peacefully go to school now?

Heh, though this was also quite interesting.

"Miss, are you not going to school today?" Seeing Qingyan's carefree manner, Zizhu couldn't help but to frown. "What does the first miss getting cursed have anything to do with us?"

Su Qingyan shook her head, "Ning Siyao made such a scene precisely because she doesn't want me to go to school. That previous incident with Wei Yun, who knew how Qingyuan explained that situation to her. Did you think..." She picked up the tea cup and gently to a sip, "Ning Siyao would really let it rest?"

"Miss, what do you think the second house is actually planning?" Baizhi looked to Qingyan and asked curiously, "Although, from the looks of it, the second house probably won't let you off the hook easily." "Baizhi is right, the people of the second house is always slandering our miss." Lue, who was standing to the side, spoke out in discontent.

"Miss, according to my knowledge, the second house has already taken their young miss to Meixiangyuan. Probably hoping for the old madam to take their side." Chishao walked in and said as she looked to Qingyan respectfully.

Right as Chishao finished speaking, Juanxiang's voice sounded, "Fourth miss, the old madam has sent me to bring you to her yard."

Hearing Juanxiang's words, Su Qingyan grinned. She glanced to her side at Zizhu and spoke, "Zizhu, let's go."

Su Qingyan followed along next to Juanxiang, listening to her explain the situation. However, these things she had already just heard from Huangcen. Although hearing it from Juanxiang made it seem like it was another matter altogether.

Seems like Ning Siyao's ability to bend the truth isn't all that impressive.

When Su Qingyan followed Juanxiang to Meixiangyuan, she saw that aside from Ning Siyao, everyone else had also gathered there. Seems like this time, Ning Siyao was set on tearing apart their relationship. Although she felt that for someone like her, it was more fun to tear away slowly. After all, Su Yun won't be able to return anytime soon.

"Qingyan is here, I hope grandmother is well." Qingyan gracefully bowed to Su Jiashi.

Su Jiashi looked to Qingyan and opened her mouth, "Yan'er, come and sit next to grandmother."

Hearing Su Jiashi's words, Qingyan very consciously sat down next to her. When Ning Siyao saw this, her eyes flared up again.

Secretly screaming to herself: 'Why should that lowly wench get to sit next to the old madam.'

"May I ask why second aunt has called for me?" Qingyan looked to Ning Siyao with a clear smile. She looked as if she was completely clueless.

"Qingyan, I heard that Qingyuan was cursed." Chai Yiyun laughed as she covered her mouth with a handkerchief, maintaining an onlooker's attitude. "and we don't know who cursed her."

"Isn't that right? How could the perfectly fine Qingyuan suddenly get cursed?" Someone else laughed along Chai Yiyun, "But luckily there's nothing wrong with that daughter of mine."

Qingyan tilted her head as she looked at them all and spoke with an innocent face, "Grandmother, Yan'er also really wants to know what big sister was cursed with." When she turned to look towards Ning Siyao, she said with a smile, "Second aunt, perhaps you can inform Qingyan."

Seeing her appearance, Ning Siyao pointed at her and sharply spoke, "You demoness, it's all your fault that my Yuan'er is hurt. If it wasn't for you, how could Yuan'er end up like this?"

"Oh." Qingyan looked to Ning Siyao confused, "Qingyan doesn't know what second aunt means by that? When have I ever harmed big sister?"

"Hmmph." Ning Siyao looked at her as she lightly snorted and then explained how everything had happened. Lastly she even mentioned the exorcist by name, saying that it was that person that said Qingyan was a demon. And that they needed to drive her out of Su Manor before it's too late, else there will never be peace.

Listening to Ning Siyao's words, rather than getting angry, Qingyan laughed. This scheme of hers really wasn't all that impressive. Compared to randomly finding someone to vilify her, it would have been better to say Su Qingyuan was pretending to be ill, or rather it was just she wanted Qingyuan to be ill.

"The incident at school, I can also attest to." Su Qingwen looked to Su Jiashi and slowly spoke, "After all, at that time, only fourth sister and Miss Wei were together. But who knew why only Miss Wei alone ended up poisoned."

Obviously Chai Yiyun didn't mind blowing the matter out of proportions. She was definitely going to let Su Qingwen clearly explain what had happened in detail.

This plan to dispose of her by someone else's hand made Qingyan feel that she had always underestimated this third aunt of hers.

As if thinking of something, Qingyan directed her gaze towards Chai Yiyun who was sitting to the side, she delightfully curled her lips.

"Yan'er, did such a thing really happen?" Su Jiashi looked to Qingyan and said with a stern look.

After all this wasn't a small matter, but how could her Qingyan harm someone's life?

"Grandmother, such a thing did happen." Qingyan replied with an obvious smile and shifted the conversation, "That Miss Wei really did get poisoned, but that had nothing to do with me. I wonder with which eye did third sister see me harming her."

Although Su Qingwen was present that day, she was obviously trying to make the matter worse by adding fuel to the fire. She wanted to drive Su Qingyan out of the Su manor, but who knew that bitch would retort like that. This made Su Qingwen lose her footing.

"Mother-in-law, Wenwen is just a child, perhaps she was just startled by what happened that day; that's why she said that." Chai Yiyun, seeing Su Qingwen's confused manner, could only inwardly curse Qingyan.

"That's right." Su Qingyan smiled, "If there isn't substantial evidence, even I can report to the capital's magistrate. After all the capital's magistrate's Lord Wu has always been known to be righteous. I believe when the time comes, he will definitely prove my innocence."

When Deng Yan heard this from Qingyan, she instinctively smiled. This fourth young miss truly has become different than before. Not only has she matured, but has even become sharp with her words. If it was like in the past, she probably would've already been kicked out of Su manor.

"With that said, does second aunt still insist that I'm the one that harmed big sister?" Su Qingyan looked up to Ning Siyao with an obvious smile.

Seeing Su Qingyan's calm and composed demeanor, Ning Siyao was secretly shocked. She really didn't think that this little girl would drive her into a corner like his, but she still haven't lost yet. She looked to Qingyan and slowly said, "Then let me bring in that Taoist priest, then we'll know of the details."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
