Her words shocked everyone. The madam in the greenhouse could no longer sit still.

Why did it get to the point of throwing someone out? Then their daughters…

However, that maidservant was only a maidservant outside Qinghui Garden. She had been sent to report at the last minute and did not know what had happened in Qinghui Garden.

Madam Li was also worried that something would happen to the girls in the residence. She comforted Madam Shen and rushed to Qinghui Garden with the madams.

In Qinghui Garden, Shen Ruyun, who was wearing a pink dress, shook off the maidservant holding her hand. Thinking that if she was thrown out like this, she would definitely become the laughing stock of the entire Chang’an, she was angry and anxious. She couldn’t care less and said without thinking, “You’re not the master of this residence. What right do you have to chase me out?”

“Because I’m a princess, and you’re just a daughter of a fifth-grade official.” Little Jiajia glanced at her. “You seem very discontent.”

Shen Ruyun’s lips trembled.

“If you’re unhappy, report it to the authorities.” Little Jiajia didn’t want to waste her breath on her anymore. She raised her voice and called out, “You Yi.”

You Yi, who was dressed in black, suddenly appeared behind her. Before Shen Ruyun could scream, she was picked up.

You Yi was not like the maidservants in this residence, who did not dare to use force for fear of hurting someone. No matter how Shen Ruyun screamed and struggled, You Yi carried Shen Ruyun to the courtyard door.

“Let go of me. Let go of me! This is Great Xia, not your Xuanyuan Kingdom!”

“Quiet.” A stern voice sounded. Madam Li and the madams of the various families had arrived. The person who shouted was Madam Shen, who was beside Madam Li.

Shen Ruyun was stunned. When she came back to her senses, it was as if she had seen a straw to clutch at. She cried without caring about her image,

“Madam, save me…”

Madam Li heard Shen Ruyun’s bold words just now. She frowned unhappily and thought of her good friend. She sighed inwardly and said to You Yi, “Let her go first.”

You Yi didn’t move and only looked at his little master.

Little Jiajia pursed her lips and nodded reluctantly. She had to show some respect to Madam Li.

Seeing that she had relented, Madam Li heaved a sigh of relief. Apart from the servants, only Little Jiajia and Shen Ruyun were in the courtyard. She was about to ask where the others had gone when she heard the west wing open with a creak.

Bi Zhu was the first to come out, followed by the girls, and finally MO Yuan.

When they approached, they realized that the eyes of some of the girls were red, as if they had been crying, especially the three people walking in the middle. They had clearly changed their clothes and even had bandages on their palms. Madam Li’s heart skipped a beat. “What’s going on?”

Her first reaction was to wonder what Little Jiajia had done.

Thinking about how she had guaranteed their safety in front of the madams just now, apart from feeling apologetic, Madam Li also felt her face hurt.

The mother of the three injured girls thought so too. Their hearts ached for their daughters, but they did not dare to say anything.

As if reading their minds, without waiting for anyone to speak, Xiao Ruoshui, who had been holding back her anger, interrupted, “Jiajia brought us to this courtyard to play. Miss Shen said that she didn’t want to play. Since she didn’t want to play, we didn’t force her. We told her to stand further away so that we wouldn’t bump into her. She didn’t want us to have a good time, so she ran over and messed up Sister Shuhui. Tian Tian and Sister Jing happened to be beside Sister Shuhui and were knocked over by her, so Jiajia asked her to apologize. Not only did she not apologize, but she also cried and said that Jiajia had wronged her. What did she mean by wronging her? This courtyard is so big, she could’ve stayed anywhere, but she just had to get in the middle. Besides, Sister

MO Yuan saw her stretch her legs…”

Shen Ruyun couldn’t care less about crying now. She said anxiously, “I didn’t. Shuhui and the other two fell as soon as I walked over. Besides, MO Yuan was so far away at that time. It’s possible that she saw it wrongly…”

Xiao Ruoshui was furious. “Are you saying that Sister MO Yuan wronged you?

What’s so amazing about you that Sister MO Yuan would try to do that?”

Shen Ruyun cowered and looked at Little Jiajia timidly. She stammered, “1- I don’t know either…

She was just short of saying that Little Jiajia instructed her to do so.

Little Jiajia didn’t have the patience to argue with her, but she couldn’t beat her up either. She rolled her eyes. “You’re so good at acting. You’ll definitely be the main attraction in a theater in the future.”

Xiao Ruoshui was super supportive. “Haha, Jiajia, you’re so mean. No matter what, she’s a young lady from a wealthy family. How could she go and perform

Little Jiajia thought about it seriously. “Maybe it’s because she loves it..”
