At this point, there was no need to say too much. The meaning was all inside it.
Ning Huaiyuan and Ning Qingshan chatted warmly with each other for a while. Then they came to Ning Xueyan. They normally weren't so kind to her, but now both of them came here. It seemed that they came with evil intention.
Anyway, it was impossible that Ning Xueyan first mentioned Ning Yuling.
Madam Dowager was also old and experienced. She looked at Ning Huaiyuan indifferently and showed some disapproval. Ning Xueyan was no longer who she used to be. If everything went well, she would marry into the imperial family. No matter which family she married into, what Ning Xueyan represented was the same as Ning Qingshan, so she could not be offended.
Seeing the sadness in her grandmother's eyes, Ning Huaiyuan reacted quickly. He pressed his hand against his nose with malicious intent and bowed to Ning Xueyan, saying apologetically, "Fifth Sister, I'm sorry. Maybe I misunderstood you just now. I came a little late and heard you talking about Second Sister. I thought you mentioned it. Please forgive me."
Hearing his words, Ning Qingshan couldn't stop crying. She was ashamed and angry. She didn't expect that Ning Huaiyuan would suddenly change his statement. So it was she who deliberately mentioned Ning Yuling and broke Madam Dowager's heart?
Ning Xueyan didn't expect that Ning Huaiyuan would apologize to her openly. People who didn't know the story would think that he was a modest gentleman. But from the surprise on Madam Dowager's face and the satisfaction on Ning Zu'an's face, it showed that Ning Huaiyuan was a man who knew when to eat humble pie and when to hold his head high.
For a moment, there was a hint of sarcasm in her eyes, but then it was hidden at the bottom of her eyes.
Ning Xueyan shifted her eyes and silently looked at Ning Huaiyuan. Ning Qingshan was overwhelmed with shame and rage. She raised her lips slightly and stretched out her hand to hold Ning Huaiyuan. "Eldest brother, we are biological brother and sister. Don't act like a stranger."
A misunderstanding? That was OK, but it depended on who misunderstood!
She deliberately added the words "biological" brother and sister, so that Ning Qingshan gnashed her teeth with hatred. She clenched her fists tightly inside her sleeves, and her face became stiff. That damn Ning Huaiyuan, how could he say such words at this time, to put her at such a disadvantage?
"All right, you are brother and sister. Why are you arguing? Third Young Lady, you're a big girl now. You should watch your mouth in the future. Don't always think confusedly. As long as the Lord Protector's Manor is there, you'll have a family behind you. Don't think too much."
Madam Dowager's words were very harsh, which was equivalent to hitting Ning Qingshan in the face and even faintly threatening her. The corners of Ning Qingshan's eyes twitched twice, and she only felt that the air coming out of her nose was frozen. "That damn Ning Xueyan, she only said a few words and Madam Dowager's impression of me is getting worse."
She gritted her teeth to suppress the hatred in her heart. She lowered her head shyly and had to admit it. "Yes, Grandmother. I didn't hear clearly. I thought that Fifth Sister mentioned it."
"Come here and see it. Yuan'er, go over to Zu'an. Don't huddle together," Madam Dowager looked at them indifferently, opened her mouth slightly, and ordered.
Everyone could see that Ning Qingshan was making excuses. Except for these masters, everyone else was a servant. Who would dare to talk about Ning Yuling here and make Madam Dowager unhappy? Of course, Madam Dowager wouldn't expose her at this time. She still needed to save the Third Prince's face.
