Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord
Chapter 1268: Spoiled

Chapter 1268: Chapter 1268: Spoiled

When Situtu Qinger and her three siblings saw Situ Yongjie, their bodies noticeably shrank. Ever since Xuexue returned to the mansion, their father had been always favoring her. If he knew they were plotting to harm Xuexue, he definitely wouldn’t let them off.

Despite his youth, Situ Zhi boldly relied on being the only male in the General’s Mansion: "Father, please judge for us. Big sister took second sister’s bracelet and refuses to admit it. She mentioned some kind of mark but won’t take it off for us to check. Isn’t this deliberately deceiving us?"

"What bracelet?"

"The bracelet she’s wearing on her hand." Situ Zhi pointed with his finger.

Situ Yongjie turned his head for a glance: "Isn’t that the bracelet Xuexue has always worn? When did it become Qinger’s?"

From the moment Situ Yongjie entered, the faces of the Old Madam and Situtu Qinger became strangely peculiar.

If this bracelet truly belonged to Xuexue’s biological mother, Situ Yongjie would surely recognize it, and their plan to frame Xuexue would be ruined.

Yet, young Situ Zhi was completely unaware, still shouting loudly: "The bracelet was originally second sister’s, Father. Don’t favor big sister just because she’s been scattered among the common people for over ten years. It’s very unfair to us four siblings."

Fair? His woman had been sleeping with Doctor Wang for over ten years, and he didn’t even know if the child was his. Is that fair?

This matter had always been a thorn in Situ Yongjie’s heart, a deep-seated pain.

Yet, such embarrassing matters couldn’t be brought to the table, for fear the world would know that the formidable Great General Situ was a cuckold. Wouldn’t that be laughable?

Then, Situ Yongjie glared fiercely at Situ Zhi: "What nonsense are you speaking? What’s with the favor? It’s originally your big sister’s belonging."

Previously, he found these children particularly adorable, but now, he felt increasingly irritated.

Whenever he saw them, he would recall the scene of Doctor Wang and Auntie Tang naked in bed. It was a deep humiliation in his life.

After being scolded by his father, the always pampered Situ Zhi was not pleased. He turned around, pouting, and complained to the Old Madam: "Grandmother, look how fierce Father is to me."

Situ Yongjie, seeing this, angrily rebuked: "Look at yourself, acting like what? Such a big person, yet you dare to act spoiled with grandmother. You’re our family’s only male. How can I trust you with the General’s Mansion?"

The Old Madam, seeing her cherished grandson being scolded by Situ Yongjie, felt a pang of heartache and held Situ Zhi in her arms, raising her eyes: "Zhizhi is still young. Why are you scolding him?"

"Young, you say? He’s already ten."

"What ten, only nine years old. How can you, as a father, not even know your son’s age?"

The Old Madam everywhere favored Situ Zhi, which caused weariness for Situ Yongjie.

Situ Zhi becoming a dissolute young master was entirely due to the spoiling by the Old Madam and Auntie Tang.

"Alright, alright, I won’t argue with you. Now, tell me, what exactly is going on with the bracelet?"

Finally managing to shift the topic, Situ Yongjie returned to the former issue.

The Old Madam was compelled. It seemed this matter needed solving sooner or later, so she reluctantly said: "I gave Qinger a bracelet, which was stolen by Xuexue. This girl Qinger constantly clamors for me to seek justice for her."

Upon hearing, Situ Yongjie turned to look at Xuexue: "Is this true?"

The Old Madam was indeed adept at distorting the truth. Xuexue extended her hand towards Situ Yongjie, angrily saying: "Father, look, this bracelet is originally mine. Yet, second sister shamelessly claims it’s hers. I got so upset that I snatched it back."
