Chapter 882: The eldest daughter is as bright as spring flowers (Part 4)

Song Qingting said righteously, "Mother, why were you so mean to me just now?! Song Qingli pushed me into the lake and I almost drowned. It was freezing cold in there, and I don't know how much water I drank before I was pulled out. Hurry up and make Song Qingli kneel in the ancestral hall for three days and three nights! She murdered her younger sister and is unworthy of being the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion!"

"So it was Song Qingli who pushed you? Didn't you slip and fall into the water?"

"Of course! If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have fallen into the water! I was freezing to death! Wuuuuuuuu... Mother, you must punish her! It would be best if you could whip her a few times!"

"Well, she even said that you fell into the water by yourself. How dare you lie to me. My poor daughter, you have suffered."

Hearing her daughter's words and looking at her aggrieved expression, Song Chen began to blame Song Qingli, the eldest daughter. What kind of hatred and grudge was this? She wanted to harm her own sister. Was she still the beautiful and elegant lady?

"Mom, Song Qingli is good at pretending. You can't believe her. She's jealous of me and wants to kill me!"

Song Chenshi felt a little uncomfortable. How could her eldest sister be jealous of her own daughter? Was there anything about her daughter that could be envied?

Wait, why did she suddenly ignore so many details?

Everyone in the mansion knew that the eldest daughter loved to go to the small garden to play the piano, so it was normal for Song Qingli to appear there.

But her daughter did not like music, chess, calligraphy, painting, or needlework. If her mother had not forced her to study, she would not even want to go to the clan school. She liked to read storybooks in the yard every day, play and fight with the maids, and study jewelry. She did not like to go to the remote little garden on weekdays, but preferred to play shuttlecock in Meilin.

"Why did she want to harm you? Why were you there? You dismissed the maids from the house, didn't take a good nap, and appeared in the small garden. You need to explain this to me!"

Song Qingting was annoyed by her mother's questioning look. What should she say?

She had already thought it through. After drowning Song Qingli, she would quickly run back to her yard, climb into the house through the window, and pretend to be sleeping in the bed. This way, if Song Qingli died, it would only be considered that she had fallen into the water by herself! It had nothing to do with her at all.

As soon as Song Qingli died, the emperor would directly grant the marriage instead of letting the father decide which daughter to marry into the royal family.

How could the Prime Minister's wife not understand her own daughter? Seeing Song Qingting tugging at the corner of her clothes, she knew she was nervous and guilty.

"Ting'er, say something! Mom won't hurt you!"

Song Qingting said stubbornly: "There's nothing to say. I'm telling the truth. Song Qingli caused me to fall into the water. I couldn't sleep, so I went out for a walk, right?"

Song Chen was so angry that she laughed: "Why didn't the other maids and nannies see you when you left the courtyard? Why was your eldest sister's maid Qiulan beaten up? Why was Xiaoman, the maid in the small garden, not in the small garden because she had diarrhea?"

"Oh, the maids and servants were all resting, and I wanted to walk around by myself, so I left the yard through the back door. How would I know why Qiulan was beaten? Maybe she offended someone. As for Xiaoman, I'm even less sure. Maybe she was just being lazy, and the diarrhea was just an excuse because she was afraid you, mother, would hold her accountable."

Song Chen was extremely disappointed. She didn't even believe what he said, so how could she expect the master to believe it?

She said to her daughter, "If you don't explain clearly, when your father comes back and investigates everything, I won't be able to help you. By then, it's unclear whether it will be you or your eldest sister who will kneel in the ancestral hall to ask for family discipline."

Speaking of the Prime Minister, Song Qingting was a little scared. Her father was the most serious one. Even if she acted like a spoiled child ten times, she would get what she wanted at most twice.

But Song Qingting wasn't afraid either. As long as there was no evidence, her father wouldn't punish her. When she knocked Qiu Lan unconscious, Qiu Lan hadn't seen her face. As for Xiao Man, she hadn't even touched him personally, so what was there to be afraid of?

When she pushed Song Qingli, no one saw it. Now it was just that she and Song Qingli had different opinions.

If she really found out something, the worst that could happen was that she would take a step back and humble herself and go along with what Song Qingli said, saying that she fell into the water accidentally. That should be fine, right?

She didn't even pursue the matter of falling into the water, so does Song Qingli still have the nerve to pursue it?

Song Qingting was annoyed that her mother didn't trust her. Isn't it said that parents trust their children unconditionally? Why couldn't her mother trust her? Why couldn't she protect her from the storm?

If she hadn't known that her mother couldn't kill Song Qingli, why would she have taken action herself, causing herself to fall into the water and then have to stay in bed to recuperate?

The reborn Song Qingting looked at her mother, who looked more than ten years younger, and felt more frustrated.

Even without her, Song Qingting, her mother could live a good life, but she was the only one struggling in torment and loneliness.
