Chapter 863: Chapter 863: The Plaque Fell Down

Their eyes all turned towards Xuexue.

Indeed, it was the young lady who had brought them back and held their indentures, naturally making Xuexue their master.

Now, with Situ Yu declaring the Old Madam as the master, they felt somewhat lost and uneasy.

Xuexue waved her hand, signaling them to listen to Situ Yu.

The servants had no choice but to turn around and follow behind the Old Madam, preparing to return to the mansion.

Situ Yu smiled smugly, thinking that with his grandmother back, they finally had support and could now hold their heads high in the General’s Mansion.

Just as he was about to catch up with the Old Madam, suddenly, a violent wind surged at the gate, causing the gates to bang loudly.

Standing at the gate, Situtu Qinger and the Old Madam could hardly keep their eyes open due to the gusting wind.

"Bang bang."

A loud noise above their heads made them instinctively look up...

Oh, my heavens!

The plaque hanging above was blown down by the strong wind, crashing directly towards them, frightening them so much that they were beside themselves.

In the chaos, Situtu Qinger, in her rush to escape, forcefully shoved the Old Madam’s arm away and ran.

Pushed by Situtu Qinger, the Old Madam fell to the ground. Watching the falling plaque about to hit her, her pupils dilated in terror, convinced she was about to die.

At the crucial moment, Xuexue rushed forward to shield the Old Madam.

"Bang-pah."

That was close—the plaque landed beside them, missing them by just a little.

Xuexue too broke out in a cold sweat, hurriedly got up from the Old Madam, and was about to help her up.

Reacting, Situtu Qinger rushed over, bursting into curses: "Big sister, what intentions do you harbor! Knowing grandmother is frail yet still pressing down on her, how could your heart be so dark! Could it be that you hold a grudge against grandmother for just insulting you? Did you want to take the chance to crush her to death?"

Situtu Qinger, who only cared for herself in times of peril, now that the Old Madam was unharmed, even had the audacity to show up and flatter her.

Xuexue sneered with her lips curled, showing her thick-skinned face, comparable to a city wall.

"Grandmother, are you alright? You scared me to death, with the entrance plaque suddenly falling down." Situtu Qinger said, patting her chest while still shaken, reaching out to pull up the Old Madam.

The Old Madam remembered she was pushed down by Situtu Qinger just before, and her expression darkened immediately, swatting away her hand and got up by herself.

Situtu Qinger’s complexion stiffened: "Grandmother, you were just frightened, weren’t you?"

Without waiting, she turned her head and glared fiercely at Xuexue, saying: "In the end, today’s trouble is all because of big sister."

Xuexue coldly laughed: "Little sister, listen to what you’re saying, how can you blame me?"

"It’s because, now that you’re in charge of the General’s Mansion, shouldn’t you know about the unstable plaque? You didn’t even consider having it fixed. What if grandmother had been injured? Could you bear that responsibility?"

"Little sister, listen to what you’re saying, I’ve only been in charge for half a month, even if there’s an issue, that should be Auntie Tang’s responsibility, shouldn’t it?"

"You’re talking nonsense, what does that have to do with our mother? Clearing you’re the one to blame but still trying to shift it."

With that, Situtu Qinger pouted her lips, looking coquettishly towards the Old Madam: "Grandmother, look at her, how she refuses to admit her mistake and almost endangered your life. It’s despicable, grandmother, you must punish her."

Just after the incident took place, the Old Madam was terribly frightened, and now finally catching her breath, she also clarified the sequence of events: "Qinger, grandmother remembers, it was you who pushed grandmother down, wasn’t it?"
