Reborn Lady: Unparalleled Daughter of Concubine Chapter 134

Chapter 134 - Confrontation

Looking at Qin Yunzhuang in panic, Qin Linfeng stepped forward and said with a stiff smile to Qin Yunuan, “Third Sister, don’t say that. We are a family. Nobody will hurt you.”

Qin Yunuan sneered, “Third Sister? Brother, you have never called me like that. I regard my Grand Sister as my family, but she doesn’t. Besides, I still keep the red bridal veil on my wedding day. That’s the evidence. Grand Sister, do you admit that?”

“I didn’t. I haven’t done that.” Qin Yunzhuang shook her head heavily. She knew that she should not admit to doing that. She gained the Hehuan Powder from Qin Linfeng and entered the room of Qin Yunuan to put it on the bridal veil. She could not admit that. That’s her only existing dignity and bottom line.

“Good,” Qin Yunuan glimpsed at Qin Zhi and Qin Yunzhuang who pretended to be poor, “Since you did not admit that, I have to get someone to prove that.”

Qin Yunzhuang raised her eyebrows when she heard that there was a witness. She thought she did that confidentially, and only Qin Linfeng and herself knew it. Nobody would know clearly that except them.

“Father, don’t believe her. Father, I am innocent. I did not hurt her. You required me that I should behave myself after the death of my mother. I dared not add that kind of dirty thing on the wedding bridal veil. Besides, even if I had done that, I had no idea what Hehuan Powder was. Father, I am innocent.” Qin Yunzhuang knelt to Qin Zhi quickly, explaining with tears. But this time, Qin Zhi looked so indifferent. Before, he would care much about his lovely daughter and would not let her kneel. But things got different. Now Qin Yunuan married Prince Ning’s Mansion and was awarded the title of the fifth-grade of rank of Infanta Ping. Qin Yunzhuang was penniless, and Dou Family had collapsed.

“The witness Yunuan said just now will prove your innocence or guiltiness.” Qin Zhi even did not glimpse at Qin Yunzhuang.

Qin Yunuan smiled and raised her hands to order Maner to let the witness in, who was waiting outside all the time. The person entered the hall, who wore a brown flower-embroidering skirt and a pair of half-worn classic flower-embroidering shoes.

Qin Yunzhuang felt stunned when she saw the person. She felt twisty and helpless. That was a feeling that she was threatened with a knife by her most trusted person when she woke up someday.

“Nurse Gui, it’s you?” Qin Yunzhuang could not believe her eyes. She was nurse Gui, her intimate wet nurse. Qin Yunzhuang knew that Xiu Gu, the wedding maidservant, who came to the mansion with her mother, finally betrayed her mother secretly. But to her surprise, her most trusted wet nurse would betray her just like the nurse betraying her mother.

Nurse Gui lowered her head and greeted those masters and guests. Finally, her eyes laid on the shoes of Qin Yunzhuang. She never raised her eyes to look at Qin Yunzhuang.

“Nurse Gui, you are the wet nurse of Grand Sister, and you have served her for a long time. You know well the characteristics of my Grand Sister. Now you tell us that what she did on my wedding day.” Qin Yunuan said lightly as she was observing the face of Qin Yunzhuang and Qin Linfeng.

Nurse Gui feared them. But after she thought about the benefits Qin Yunuan had promised such as saving her daughter out of the whorehouse, giving her some money to run a small business in the Royal City, helping her daughter change her name and returning to the normal census register, she gritted her teeth and said all out, “I felt the Grand Miss became more different than before when she came back the other day. I saw she took out a packet of medicine powder. She said that it was from North Di, and she planned to add the thing into the wedding accessories of Third Miss. She wanted to let Third Miss feel painful.”

“Nonsense,” Before nurse Gui said all out, Qin Yunzhuang got outrageous and was about to step forward to slap the lying maidservant crazily, “I did not say those to you! I did not! All were your lie.”

“I am not telling a lie,” Nurse Gui said more calmly. She took out a half-palm-sized package wrapped by the yellow paper. There was white medicine powder in it. She opened the package and said determinedly, “This is that medicine powder left by Grand Miss on that day. Master, if you do not believe me, you can find someone to check it if this is Hehuan Powder or not.”

Butler Xie held the package proactively and was about to pass it to Qin Zhi. Suddenly, Qin Yunzhuang rushed at him and caught that package, shouting, “Father, don’t believe her. I did not do that.”

“Grand Sister, if you had not done that, why would you not let father check what on earth the powder is?” Qin Yunuan stepped forward closely and said.

“The medicine powder in this package is fake. Nurse Gui was framing me up,” Qin Yunzhuang shouted, and then she said to nurse Gui in a regretting voice, “Nurse Gui, you are so merciless. We have lived together for a long time. What benefit did Qin Yunuan have given to you so now you are framing me up? I have promised to help your daughter. It was you that owed the money of my mother. Mother was so kind, and she did not punish you. She just sent your daughter into the whorehouse to pay off your debt. How dare you quit love with hate!”

“Quit love with hate?” Nurse Gui turned to be very gloomy and said in a helpless querying voice, “Grand Miss. My daughter, as young as you, was sent to the hell where dirty people would destroy her. You said that was love? If that was love, I would send back more love to you. I want everyone here to know how much love Grand Miss gave to me.”

Nurse Gui kowtowed to Qin Zhi and said, “Master, I have served Grand Miss for some time and know many things about her. Grand Miss looks so elegant, but inside, she is a jealousy girl. She added some dirty things into the fruit wine of the Fourth Miss of Fang Family because she envied that the Fourth Miss got the champion in the Flower Fairy Festival. What’s more, when Third Miss went to pray in Wan’an Temple, the crying Buddhist Statues also got involved with Grand Miss. She aimed to destroy the fame of Third Miss. Besides….”

“Enough!” Qin Linfeng suddenly stepped forward and shouted. His fluctuant chest showed her resistant anger. If he had kept his previous temper, he would turn furious and squeezed the neck of nurse Gui to let her shut up. But now he learned to behave himself, so he tried to make his mood more placid. He said to Qin Zhi, “Father, now all of the evidence was only from the wet nurse. You are the father of Yunzhuang. You are the one who knows Yunzhuang best.”

“The evidence knows Yunzhuang best,” Qin Yunuan chipped in and said slowly, “Father, you haven’t checked the medicine powder in that paper package.”

“Third Younger Sister,” The veins in the arms of Qin Linfeng rose. He gritted his teeth and contained his anger, “A harmonious family can nourish all of its members. It is not necessary to get things complicated and intense.”

“Harmonious family?” Qin Yunuan sneered, “Brother, your words are right. If Grand Sister had known the meaning of your words, I would not have hardly suffered that danger.”

Qin Yunuan’s words distracted the topic back.

“Father.” Qin Yunzhuang said to Qin Zhi with bitter eyes in a pathetic mood. She expected that Qin Zhi could suppress this issue finally. If this issue got well-known, she would lose the marriage with Third Prince and even her high position of a daughter born of the legal wife of the Grand Commandant Mansion. Now it was not the time when Dou Family could hide the truth by its power. She took a big hit due to the death of her mother. But luckily, she had a brother to live together. Qin Yunzhuang believed she would have a great life if she got married to Third Prince, Sima Ray. But to her surprise, Qin Yunuan played the trick on her. She was confused if Qin Yunuan was really her hoodoo, who she could not get rid of for the whole life.

Qin Yunuan raised her head slightly and seemed to wait for the conclusion of Qin Zhi. Her light smile made Qin Zhi feel that it was unreal. With such a calm smile, she was like a seer waiting for an answer from Qin Zhi, but the answer was already in the heart of Qin Yunuan.

Qin Zhi adjusted his position slightly and noticed Leng Changxi who stood aside without any word for a long time. He asked him tentatively, “What’s your opinion, General Leng?”

Actually, Leng Changxi had been paying attention to this issue. He was just a guarantee who made sure that Qin Yunuan would not suffer any hurt in this issue. Now the issue seemed to be at a point where his hedgehog was totally dominant now. Great! She did not disgrace him.

As for the question from Qin Zhi, Leng Changxi just shrugged carelessly, “I have said that Nuan’s opinion is my opinion. I have no idea.”

Attention was transited to Qin Zhi again. He felt in a dilemma. If he did not check the whole thing, he would not be able to give a result to Prince Ning’s Mansion since his third daughter was the fifth-grade of rank of Infanta Ping. But if he checked it, the truth seemed to be checked out, and then his grand miss would be in a dangerous place.

“Check it.” Qin Zhi hesitated for a while and said.

His words made Qin Yunzhuang turn to be pale.

“And this maidservant,” Qin Zhi looked at nurse Gui and said, “She betrayed her master and said something bad about her master. Such a person can’t stay in Qin Family.”

Qin Zhi wanted to expel nurse Gui out of the mansion. Superficially, he was protecting Qin Yunzhuang, but profoundly, it was beneficial to Qin Yunuan. It would be a good ending for nurse Gui who planned to leave the mansion.

Nurse Gui was taken out. Butler Xie carried the package of medicine powder and quitted, and then he let the old doctor in Qin Family, Doctor Chen, have a check. After several minutes, the result came out.
