Walking into the room, Feng Qingyu saw both Feng Yunyao and Feng Yunqian were also inside.

“Mother!”

Feng Qingyu bowed to Madam Song with a smile and stood to one side.

“Qingyu, today I’m looking for you…”

Madam Song didn’t know how to start speaking.

For this stepdaughter, she didn’t have any feelings. It was only for the sake of face that she try to get along well.

That time, she met a stranger privately in the temple and she punished her a little.

Then the old madam made her go to her courtyard to serve for a few days, and inwardly grinding herself.

In short, how she treated Feng Qingyu will be the same as how the old madam will be treating her.

Madam Song gritted her teeth. Although she didn’t want to ask, but it was impossible for her not to ask as it was concerning Yunyao.

“Qingyu…Did you accidentally bump into Yunyao when you were on the bridge yesterday?”

Madam Song asked in a tone that will not hurt anyone.

“What?”

Feng Qingyu asked in surprise as if she didn’t expect Madam Song will ask this question.

She looked at Feng Yunyao, “Second young sister, you said I bumped into you?”

“If I pushed you, why should I jump down to save you?”

Feng Qingyu looked sad. As if being treated like this by people made her heart uncomfortable.

“Eldest sister…you’re afraid of being punished, you used the truce of inflicting an injury on oneself to win the confidence of the enemy so you also jumped down. At that time, Mei Hua clearly saw it.”

Feng Yunyao had tears in her apricot eyes. Hearing Feng Qingyu’s rebuttal, the expression on her face became desolate.

“Mother, I didn’t push the second younger sister… Yesterday, the second younger sister asked me to accompany her to change clothes. She broke the dressing mirror and pushed the blame on Xiao Shuang. I just said a few words, and she run outside… run all the way to the bridge. I chase her to the bridge, then she suddenly turned back, as if she was about to pounce at me… As soon as I moved away, she fell into the water herself… seeing her cry for help, in anxiety I also jumped down, mother, you know, the second younger sister is usually friendly with us, and I can’t be hardhearted enough to watch her fall into the water without saving her, although I myself can’t swin.”

A trace of disappointment flashed inside Feng Qingyu’s eyes, but she still told the whole story.

Madam Song had heard Mei Hua’s story yesterday, two different versions, for a while, she didn’t know how to distinguish.

However, Feng Yunyao was her daughter, so she must be a little biased.

“I tortured Mei Hua yesterday, and she said that the dressing mirror was not broken by Yunyao, but by Xiao Shuang.”

Madam Song frowned, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes. How dare you trusted a maid, but not trusted your own younger sister.

Feng Yunqian who sat aside raised her head slightly, and looked at Madam Song helplessly.

She opened her mouth but saw Feng Yunyao, whose eyes were red from crying, she stop speaking.

Feng Qingyu also saw her expressions.

Probably, Feng Yunqian also guessed something. Although the two of them have often talked about literature during this period of time, in terms of affection, she naturally still has to favor her biological sister.

Feng Qingyu naturally wouldn’t care, she never took Feng Yunqian to heart.

So it doesn’t matter if Feng Yunqian didn’t help her at this time.

“Excuse me, mother, does Xiao Shuang have a grudge against second younger sister?”

Feng Qingyu asked.

“Naturally, there is none.”

A trace of doubt flashed in Madam Song’s eyes, but she still shook her head and said no.

“If the dressing mirror bestowed by the royal family was broken by Xiao Shuang, that was a capital crime! She is also a maidservant who serves by Sister Ye’s side since she was a child. If Sister Ye is reluctant to part with her, she must beg Sister Ye for grace. In this case, why did she want to involve the second younger sister, not to mention that they have no grievances and no enmity.”
