Chu Man fell into the water, and the Chu family's dragon boat race ended unhappily.

Because he was just a illegitimate girl, the eldest and third ladies did not stay here to wait for news. Chu Qiang and Chu Rong were cousins ​​of the same generation. Whether they were really worried or for the sake of open sisterly relationship, they stayed, standing side by side with Hanzhu and brothers, watching the doctor take the vein for the unconscious Chu Man.

"The fourth girl should have been too frightened. The rest have to wait until the fourth girl wakes up before making a diagnosis." The doctor stood up from the bedside and said respectfully to Chu Qing.

Chu Qing nodded and ordered his servant to invite the doctor to go to the guest room to see the tea.

The doctor left, and he looked at Aunt Xia who was standing by the bed and wiping tears. The eldest son with a serious expression fell on his daughter and two nieces. "Manman should not be a big deal. Qiang Qiang Rongrong, you go back first and report your safety to the elders. Hanhan, go and send two sisters, and then take A Xun back to the Lotus Courtyard. You don't have to worry about it here."

Just based on his expression and tone, he couldn't tell what he was thinking.

Thinking of Si Xi who was locked up by Chu Qing and several other maids who came to watch the dragon boat race, Hanzhu said softly to Chu Qing, led A Xun, who was obviously frightened, and said goodbye to Chu Qiang and Chu Rong, the brother and brother returned to the Lotus Courtyard.

"Sister, why did Sixi push Sister Four?" As the sister helped him change his clothes, Axun asked in a low voice.

Ruyi was about to go out with her changed clothes in her arms, but when she heard this, she turned back in disbelief. She heard the news about the lakeside. She heard that Liu Zhi pointed out that Si Xi pushed the water under Chu Man, but Ruyi didn't believe it at all. She and Si Xi came over to protect the girl and the young master. Chu Man would do something bad, and they would take action. Chu Man was honest and they would not take the initiative to cause trouble for the girl, but the young master's tone...

Hanzhu helped the boy tie the last buckle of the middle cloak. Seeing Ruyi standing there, she knew what she was worried about, she gently tapped Axun's ear and explained to him: "Sixi did not push the fourth sister. Axun cannot believe it just because he heard Liu Zhi say this. Some people will lie, for example, Liu Zhi said that I don't like Axun. Does Axun believe it?"

Ah Xun shook his head and threw himself into his sister's arms, "Sister likes me the most. Liu Zhi lied, she is so bad!"

Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief and went out to do things.

Ah Xun arched in his sister's arms, blinked his eyes, and asked again: "Why is Liuzhi lying?"

Children like to ask questions the most, but Hanzhu is not easy to answer because she is not clear about Liu Zhi’s thoughts. Hanzhu is very sure that Sixi did not do it. Liu Zhi insists on Sixi, which may be that she lied and accused Sixi, or that someone else pushed Chu Man because the other party escaped quickly. Liu Zhi only saw Sixi when he saw him. So in Liu Zhi’s eyes, Sixi became harming people, and she “didn’t lie”…

Everyone in the house is not simple, she can do things that are fake and real. Han Zhuzhen is not sure whether Liu Zhi is acting or a misunderstanding.

What if it is the latter, who is the one who really pushes Chu Man? Or is it Chu Man who jumped down by himself?

Recalling Chu Man's hostility towards her, it seems that it is not impossible to deliberately set up a plan to wrongly accuse her.

But everyone was taken away by Chu Qing. All she could do now was to wait for Chu Qing's interrogation result.

~

Chu Qing was not in a hurry to interrogate people. He sat by the bed, silently guarding his unconscious little daughter. His daughter was only eleven, and even if she was soaked all over, it didn't matter much. It was so light that it made people feel more and more distressed. He still remembered the years when his little daughter was two or three years old, and pounced on him and asked her father to hug her.

He is ashamed of his eldest daughter, and from now on, he will pay more attention to the eldest daughter and compensate her more. But in terms of father-daughter relationship, he and his younger daughter are deeper. After all, he missed more than ten years of time with his eldest daughter, and in those years, he loved his younger daughter. Now thinking about it, Chu Qing feels even more sorry for his eldest daughter, but the father-daughter relationship he had with his younger daughter for ten years is also true.

"Marty, why is Manman not awake yet?" Aunt Xia asked with red eyes, holding her daughter's little hand.

Chu Qing looked at the hands of the mother and daughter holding each other, then looked at the pale little daughter. For some reason, she thought of the eldest daughter again.

The eldest daughter fell from the plum tree. Who was around her when she was unconscious? Who was she seeing when she woke up? The youngest daughter fell into the water. He personally saved her daughter and went ashore, hired a doctor for her, and stayed by her. When the eldest daughter had an accident, he was far away in Liaodong...

What would her eldest daughter feel when she saw this scene just now? In particular, Liu Zhi also pointed out that she was the person her maid pushed.

Chu Qing suddenly couldn't sit down and stood up and said, "I'll go to the Lotus Courtyard first. When Manman wakes up, he will send someone to call me."

Aunt Xia couldn't believe her ears and raised her head blankly.

Chu Qing had already raised her feet and walked out. Chu Hong went out to see him off. After leaving the main hall, Chu Qing ordered her son to take good care of her sister. When she left the yard, Chu Qing slowly stopped, looked back, and said to Fugui in a deep voice: "Go and call Wanyun over and let her guard the fourth girl on my behalf."

Fugui felt a stern in his heart. Looking at the man's back as he strode away, he finally understood the position of the eldest girl in the Marquis's heart. The fourth girl fell into the water, and anyone could see the Marquis' nervousness and distress, but even so, the Marquis didn't believe that the eldest girl would harm others, so when he was away, he immediately sent Wanyun to stare. When the fourth girl woke up, Aunt Xia wanted to give instructions or remind the fourth girl nothing while the Marquis was away.

Lotus Courtyard.

When the maid said that Chu Qing was coming, Hanzhu was very surprised. She quickly put down the bowl and wiped Ah Xun's mouth and said, "Let's go pick up Dad."

Axun looked at the sweet apricot jam made for him by his sister in the white porcelain bowl, and followed her sister reluctantly. Before she could go out, Chu Qing came in first.

"Dad!" Ah Xun quickly ran to Daddy and begged him: "Dad, Liu Zhi is lying, Sixi didn't push the fourth sister, Dad let her go, right?" He liked Sixi, who loves to laugh and make trouble, so he wanted Sixi to come back soon.

The head of Hanzhu is as big as a fight. Does she always tell Ah Xun to tell him not to tell others whenever she explains something to him?

"Dad, don't listen to your brother's nonsense. Sixi is suspicious and should be kept in lock." Hanzhu said calmly, then looked down at her confused brother, "Don't worry, Dad will release Sixi after he finds out."

Looks full of confidence.

Chu Qing smiled. Her daughter looked at Rouwei. She was usually cautious in front of him, but she dared to support her own people when something really happened. She was not timid at all. This is what the real daughter of a marquis should look like.

He picked up his son and smiled and said, "Don't worry, Dad will let Sixi back in two days."

When he spoke, his eyes turned to his daughter.

The man's eyes were gentle and calm, and Hanzhu understood it. Chu Qing was telling her that he believed that this matter had nothing to do with her.

There was a rippling ripples in Hanzhu's heart, just like the elder next door stood up to defend her when Mrs. Gu was wronged by her for stealing. The feeling of being trusted made her feel more heartwarming than any verbal comfort.

She relaxed her body and asked Chu Qing to sit down. She asked in confusion: "Is sister awake? Why is Daddy here?" At first she thought Chu Qing was going to be punished, but now she guessed it completely wrong.

"I haven't woken up yet." Chu Qing answered the first question briefly, looked at the white porcelain bowl on the table and asked, "Is this apricot? You made it?" The fresh and seductive fruit fragrance came to her face. Chu Qing grabbed her son's spoon and tasted it, and after a while, he said, "It's too sweet."

"Eat with steamed buns!" Ah Xun rushed to explain to his father, "It's delicious even if it's dipped in ribs!"

Chu Qing pinched his son's chubby little face and said with a smile: "Your sister makes delicious food, and it's all cheaper to Axun."

Ah Xun laughed.

Hanzhu then said, "Dad sent someone to bring a basket of apricots. I tried to make a few cans of apricot jam. Thinking that Dad didn't like sweet food, he didn't give it to Dad. The old lady, aunt and third aunt all gave it to him."

My daughter was gentle and sensible, and Chu Qing said with relief: "Okay, Hanhan's craftsmanship is getting better and better, but don't always go to the kitchen, where the smoke is heavy, be careful to get it." My daughter is so cute that she can always deal with pots and pans.

Hanzhu nodded obediently.

Chu Qing had a thousand words to say to her daughter, telling her that if she was in the capital when she was unconscious, he would definitely be by her daughter day and night, but when she looked at her daughter who had become strong and independent at some point, he couldn't say it. What's the use of saying it? For the eldest daughter, he will never be a good father. Even if his daughter doesn't blame him, he will remember it himself.

"So you continue to feed A Xun. I'll go see your sister. Maybe she accidentally fell, and Liu Zhi was talking nonsense because she was unclear about the situation." Chu Qing stood up, turned around and pointed A Xun's little mouth before she said seriously: "Just eat a few bites to satisfy her cravings. Don't eat too much at once, be careful of bugs in her teeth."

Ah Xun covered his mouth in fear.

Chu Qing laughed out loud and walked away with her feet.

Hanzhu sent him to the door of the main hall and looked at the man leaving along the corridor, wondering, what did this person do?

Unable to figure it out, Hanzhu simply stopped thinking about it.

On Chu Man's side, Aunt Xia lowered her head to look at her daughter, and her mind was full of chaos.

The Marquis sent Wanyun to stare at her. Has he found something? His daughter was dissatisfied with her legitimate sister for a long time. She knew better than anyone else. Even she was afraid that her daughter came up with this trick to compete for favor. Will the Marquis think so too?

"mother……"

A weak call came from his ears. Aunt Xia suddenly came to her senses, and she saw that her daughter's eyes had not opened, her eyebrows were furrowed, and she was like a dream.

"Wake up, I'm here." Aunt Xia called out in tears, holding back her sadness.

Chu Man slowly opened her eyes, saw the gentle mother beside the bed, and also saw the tall and majestic father walking over from a distance.

Chu Man's eyes were sore, and she cried in fear: "Dad, someone wants to kill me, I'm afraid..."

At that time, she looked nervously at her father and brother's dragon boat, and almost cheered them up loudly. A huge force suddenly came from her back. She fell out of the railing without control. When she turned around, she saw Sixi's face.

Chu Man was afraid and hated, and said with tears in his eyes: "Dad, it was Sixi who pushed me!"

Aunt Xia's heart was in her throat.

Chu Qing's eyes changed and he asked in a deep voice: "Manman is sure that Sixi is pushing you?"
