The little dark guard who travels between two lives

Xin He suddenly remembered to remind Daddy to be careful about Prince Cheng, so she pulled Qin Mingxuan's sleeve, motioned Daddy to bend down, and then whispered to Qin Mingxuan: "Dad, I will go to the study to tell you something, it's very important."

Qin Mingxuan was not surprised by his daughter's mysterious behavior. He stroked Xin He's hair and said with a smile, "Okay, let's go see your mother first, and then we'll go to the study after dinner."

Xinhe nodded happily. Daddy always believed in her and didn't treat her like a child.

As the father and daughter talked, they walked toward the back hall. On the way, they met a little maidservant beside Ji Wanran. Seeing Xinhe and his daughter, she quickly approached them, bowed to them, and said to Xinhe, "Second Miss, Madam has ordered me to find you. Go and see Madam quickly."

Ji Wanran rarely ordered people to look for Xinhe in such a hurry. Qin Mingxuan was also a little surprised: "What happened?"

The little maid's face changed, she glanced at Xin He, and said softly: "It was Qingqiu, the eldest maid beside the second young lady, who offended the eldest young lady."

"Impossible!" Xin He couldn't believe that Qing Qiu, who was always polite and obedient, could possibly offend her sister. Xin He anxiously grabbed Qin Mingxuan's hand and said, "Dad, you also know that Qing Qiu beside me is always very obedient. How could she be disrespectful to her sister?"

Qin Mingxuan was also very surprised. Looking at his daughter's anxious look, he comforted her: "Don't worry, let's go over and see what's going on."

The father and daughter said nothing more and hurried to the back hall. When they entered Ji Wanran's main room, they saw Qingqiu kneeling in the hall, Ji Wanran sitting on the main seat with an ugly face, and Qin Qingyan beside her was crying while softly persuading Ji Wanran to calm down.

Seeing Qin Mingxuan and his daughter enter the house, Qin Qingyan hurriedly bowed and greeted Qin Mingxuan. After calling him father, tears began to fall uncontrollably, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

Ji Wanran seemed to still be angry. When she saw the father and daughter, she did not stand up to greet them. She just sat there and glared at them, then took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears from Qin Qingyan's face.

Xin He didn't know what was going on, but she could tell that her mother was angry, so she hurried to greet her. But Ji Wan Ran ignored her and didn't even look at her.

Qin Mingxuan asked with a smile: "What happened? Who made Madam angry? Why is Qingyan crying?"

Qingyan quickly replied: "Dad, please persuade mother not to be angry. Yan'er was not wronged. It was Yan'er's fault. Yan'er did not discipline Lin Ma well and offended Miss Qingqiu."

As soon as Qingyan finished speaking, Ji Wanran said angrily: "You spoiled your daughter so much that she has become more and more ignorant of etiquette. She even spoiled the servants and bullied others at will in the mansion."

Qin Mingxuan sat down next to Ji Wanran and signaled Uncle Qin to ask other irrelevant people in the hall to leave. Xinhe rarely saw her mother so angry. Even if she was naughty in the past, her mother never said that to her.

Recently, I have been busy practicing martial arts with Uncle Yu, always going out early and coming back late, and I have seen my mother less and less. When I saw her today, she was so angry that she didn't even want to talk to me.

She quickly smiled and apologized to her mother: "Mother, my daughter did something wrong, please just tell me!" Qin Mingxuan also asked Ji Wanran: "Yes, Madam, what happened to make you so angry?"

Ji Wanran pulled Qingyan to sit next to her and said to Mother Lin who was standing in the hall: "Mother Lin, you go ahead and talk."

Mother Lin took a step forward and knelt in the hall. Xinhe subconsciously looked at Qingqiu. Qingqiu had tears in her eyes. She glanced at Xinhe, pursed her lips and lowered her head.

Aunt Lin kowtowed to Ji Wanran and Qin Mingxuan and said, "Madam, please don't be angry. It's all because of me who talked too much. Today, I and the eldest lady were admiring flowers in the garden and ran into Miss Qingqiu in the second lady's room. I heard that Miss Qingqiu's name had the same character as the eldest lady's name, so I felt something was wrong."

"I went up to Miss Qingqiu and reminded her that she should ask the Second Miss to change her name. But Miss Qingqiu said that the name given by the Second Miss could not be changed, and it was no big deal even if it bumped into the name of the eldest Miss."

"I saw Miss Qingqiu was very disrespectful to the eldest lady, and I was so angry that I said a few words to Miss Qingqiu. It was my fault, I shouldn't have said anything too much!"

As soon as Lin Ma finished speaking, Qin Qingyan started crying again: "It's all my fault. I insisted on keeping this name. As a result, it was the same name as my sister's maid, which made my sister unhappy."

As soon as she cried, Ji Wanran immediately felt sorry for her and wiped her tears.

Xin He was unhappy when she heard this: "Sister, I'm not unhappy. My maid's name clashes with yours. It was my negligence. If it was my maid who made the mistake, I wouldn't cover it up for her."

Xinhe looked at Qingqiu: "What happened today? Tell me." Qingqiu was about to open her mouth to speak, but Ji Wanran said: "No matter what, Aunt Lin has raised Qingyan for many years and is a meritorious official in our family. I still think highly of Aunt Lin. How can a little girl like her be so arrogant? She should be punished."

Xin He didn't expect her mother to be so tough today, not even giving Qing Qiu a chance to speak. She looked at her mother, but she didn't look at her, she was just busy wiping Qing Yan's tears.

The mother in front of him seemed to have become a different person. She only had Qingyan in her eyes. She didn't even want to look at him.

She was a little dazed, because she saw her sister, who was crying in her mother's arms, glanced at her secretly, and the pride in her eyes was so obvious.

Qin Qingyan was indeed very proud in her heart, so much so that she could not help but want to show off to Xinhe. Xinhe thought that she could do whatever she wanted because she grew up with her mother.

Little did she know that since she entered the mansion, she had been paying respects to her mother every day, telling her mother about her past life intentionally or unintentionally. The more she seemed to cherish her present life, the more she showed how much she had suffered in the past. The more her mother felt guilty and distressed.

Mother Lin said that her daughter who "died" at a young age was a source of worry for her mother. Now not only did she survive, but she also returned to her mother's side. For her mother, this filled the regret and pain in her heart.

My mother naturally cherishes me very much. What's more, I have similar interests with her. I will talk to her about whatever she likes.

What's more, I personally cook for my mother every day to make nourishing soup, and personally serve her to drink it, which shows my great filial piety and respect. My mother now prefers to take me with her when she goes out, rather than Xinhe.

His younger sister didn't like the social interactions between these ladies and young ladies. It was said that she had learned some new sword technique during this period and had been practicing hard. She was not seen in the mansion all day long.

And I was able to take advantage of the opportunity, accompany my mother, gradually win her heart, and then gain an excellent reputation among the ladies and young ladies in the capital. In fact, it was not my fault for saying bad things about my sister behind her back. I just acted as if I wanted to say something but stopped, and looked full of grievance when the ladies and young ladies asked about my sister.

And this was enough to make those ladies and young ladies imagine wildly. The rest was just that Aunt Lin secretly bribed some little beggars to spread some rumors that the Second Miss of the Qin Mansion was spoiled by her favor, disrespectful to her elder sister, and did not take other noble ladies in the capital seriously.

Today, Mother Lin deliberately provoked some disputes in order to test which side her mother would lean towards if there was a conflict between her and her sister.

Seeing her mother and Qingyan hugging each other and crying, Xinhe didn't know what to say for a moment. Qin Mingxuan coughed and said to Ji Wanran: "The two of them had a conflict. We can't just listen to one person's opinion. We should also listen to Qingqiu's opinion. This is fair."
