After His Majesty was reborn, the poor little girl in his previous life was spoiled to death
Chapter 199 Wine Release
Shen Chengying was shocked when he was questioned by his own sister. He was afraid that Miss Ning would be sad after hearing the humiliation, so he scolded Yao'er without thinking...but he didn't realize that he subconsciously stood on Miss Ning's side.
He looked at Ruyao, frowned and said, "Yao'er, calm down. It is precisely because I am your brother that I cannot tolerate your bad words. This matter has nothing to do with Miss Ning from beginning to end. She has suffered from your misfortune for no reason. Shouldn't you apologize to her?"
Shen Ruyao's eyes were instantly filled with tears, and all the new and old grudges came to her mind. Ever since Shen Chaoning came to the Marquis' Mansion, he had been against her in every way, causing her to be punished every other day, instigating her father to punish her and her mother to lock her up, and now even her brother was on her side!
With tears in her eyes, she said angrily: "I did nothing wrong! Why should I apologize?" Through her tearful eyes, she felt extremely wronged. She only vaguely saw the figure of her grandmother. She couldn't help but throw herself into her arms and burst into tears.
Ning'er watched helplessly from the side. She clearly did nothing, but with the two siblings talking and asking questions, it seemed as if she had become the bad person.
If Ning'er could hear Shen Ruyao's inner voice, she would probably be even more speechless. It was clearly her who had been finding fault first, and when she failed to harm anyone, why did she feel wronged?
Mrs. Luo hugged her granddaughter distressedly, but couldn't bear to scold her grandson, so she could only say: "As a brother, can't you give in to your sister? Look how sad Yao'er is."
Shen Chengying shook his head and bowed to the two old ladies: "What happened today was all caused by Ruyao's willfulness. As the elder brother, I apologize to the Madam and the old lady on behalf of my sister."
As he said this, he lifted the corner of his robe, knelt on his knees, and kowtowed three times to Madam Zhu and others.
Luo Miaoyun was shocked and said, "Ying'er, why do you have to do this? Get up quickly!"
Shen Chengying was unmoved.
Old Madam Zhu's expression eased a little. She had always been very satisfied with this smart and precocious grandson. Shen Chengying's actions more or less saved some face for the Shen family in front of Xiang's family.
She said slowly, "Ying'er, it's good that you understand friendship and brotherhood. Get up."
She looked at her granddaughter who was curled up in Madam Luo's arms and refused to get up, and said with a headache: "Forget it, forget it. Miaoyun, you sit down too, and tell Yao'er to stop crying."
Shen Chengying stood up, brushed off his robe, turned to Ning'er, and said sincerely: "Miss Ning, my sister's words and actions were rude and abrupt. I am really sorry, and I hope you will forgive me."
After he finished speaking, he clasped his hands together, bowed deeply, and almost fell to the ground.
Ning Er had no choice but to stand up and return the greeting. She thought for a moment and said politely, "Master Ying, you are polite. But Master has apologized for Miss Yao three times. What is your fault? Please forgive Ning Er for not being able to forgive you."
She responded with a retort that was neither too soft nor too hard, but it left no room for criticism.
Shen Chongyao had been watching the fight for a long time. He had been on edge since the moment Shen Ruyao spoke, fearing that he had really offended the girl.
Seeing Ning'er speak, she hurriedly moved two steps towards her and said, "I think what Miss Ning said is right. Although Ying'er and Yao'er are siblings, there is still a difference between men and women. It is better for the girls to resolve the conflicts between the girls themselves. Mother, don't you think this is the truth?"
Old Madam Zhu could tell what he meant by that. In the past, she wouldn't have taken it to heart, but today was Chongyao's good day, so in front of his wife's family, she had to give him some face.
She glanced at her granddaughter. Luo Miaoyun had already coaxed Shen Ruyao to stop crying. The mother and daughter had red eyes and were hugging each other tightly.
Madam Zhu said, "Let Yao'er apologize to Ning, and let's have a drink together. This matter will be over, and no one is allowed to mention it again."
Luo Miaoyun felt her daughter's body stiffen, knowing that she would not bow to the girl, and said distressedly, "My daughter is wronged." Her voice was very soft, "Good Yao'er, if you give in, you will make your grandmother angry."
Shen Ruyao was unwilling and reluctant in every way, but she could not resist her mother's soft pleading, so she had to stand up aggrievedly, glared at Ning'er fiercely, and then reluctantly said: "I was wrong, please forgive me, sister."
Ning Er accepted it calmly. She did not respond, but nodded to Shen Chengying: "I already know your sister's feelings, Master Ying can rest assured."
The wine-serving girl beside her had already brought up two cups of Qinfanglu. Ning'er took one cup and looked at Shen Ruyao leisurely.
Her expression was as ugly as if she had eaten a fly, but under the gazes of the elders from all directions, she had no choice but to swallow her anger and pick up the wine glass.
Ning'er raised her glass and said, "Madam, Madam, I accept Miss Yao's apology." Then she drank the wine in the glass in one breath.
Seeing that she accepted her apology as a matter of course but didn't say a word to her, Shen Ruyao felt that the wine glass in her hand suddenly became as boiling as boiling soup.
Evil thoughts suddenly came to her mind, and she wanted to pour the wine at Ning'er, but suddenly her wrist felt sore, her muscles and bones became weak, and the wine glass in her hand immediately fell to the ground at an angle.
There was a clang sound.
Amber-colored fragrance dew spreads on the ground, exuding a rich and sweet scent.
Ning'er took a step back in time, but her skirt was still stained by the splashing wine.
Shen Ruyao covered her wrist and said in panic: "Who is it? Who hit me!"
Luo Miaoyun hurriedly stepped forward and pulled her daughter to look left and right: "What happened?"
Shen Ruyao was so frightened that her face turned pale. She kept looking around and said fearfully, "Mother, someone just threw something at me and hit my wrist, so I accidentally knocked over the wine glass!"
Luo Miaoyun was shocked: "Really?"
Shen Ruyao rolled up her sleeves, revealing a faint red mark on the inside of her fair wrist.
Luo Miaoyun was even more frightened when she saw this. She hurriedly said to Old Madam Zhu, "Mother, did you hear it? There was a villain who secretly committed a crime and hurt Yao'er!"
She hugged her daughter tightly, obviously at a loss: "What should I do?"
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Zhu was also panicked. She looked at the only male host present and did not care about the presence of outsiders. She hurriedly said, "Chongyao, is there really a bad guy coming in?"
Shen Chongyao stole a glance at Ning'er without leaving a trace, and saw Miss Ning blink at him almost imperceptibly, and he immediately understood what he meant.
He racked his brains to explain, "Don't worry, old lady. According to my son, it may not be a criminal who committed the crime. Think about it carefully. Everyone in this house is ours. What kind of expert would be able to do it without us noticing?"
"Even if there really is such a villain with ill intentions, he would not make a fuss and expose himself just to knock over the wine glass in Yao'er's hand. Wouldn't this alert the enemy?"
After hearing this, Old Lady Zhu felt that it made sense, but Shen Ruyao refused to give in and insisted that someone had secretly stabbed her.
She looked solemn: "But Chongyao, Yao'er does have traces of injury on her wrist. How do you explain this?"
