In the end, when Jiang Lingzhi took the broom, the few culprits had already run away without a trace.
Jiang Lingzhi lowered her eyes and swept the room with a broom.
Someone probably heard the commotion upstairs and soon came over.
It was Old Madam Barker.
“What’s going on here?”
When she saw the broken pieces on the ground, her face revealed a pained expression. She raised her head to look at Jiang Lingzhi and started to blame her indiscriminately.”What are you doing?”
Jiang Lingzhi was stunned for a moment before she explained, “‘Grandma, this vase…”
Before she could finish, the old lady interrupted her, her voice trembling.”l told you not to touch the things in the house. Don’t you know that this vase was bought at a high price?”
A vase worth more than a hundred thousand yuan was gone just like that.
The more the old lady looked at her, the angrier she became. At this moment, her heart ached so much that she was certain that she had done it.”Tell me, why did you come to your grandfather’s study for no reason?”
She Imew that Grandma had misunderstood that she was the one who broke the vase.
Jiang Lingzhi tried to explain.” I didn’t smash this vase. There were a few children just now…”
“What, you still know that you broke the vase, and you want to shirk responsibility? Where was the child? Where were the children? I only saw you!” the old lady said in exasperation.
Jiang Lingzhi pursed her lips and simply kept quiet.
Suddenly, she felt a chill in her heart.
It was all because of Grandma’s attitude.
Not to mention, this vase was not broken by her.
Even if she had really broken the vase, her grandmother would have scolded her the moment she arrived, regardless of whether she was injured or not.
If it was Jiang Che who broke the vase, the old lady probably wouldn’t complain at all.
Anyway, he hated her, so he was sure that she was the one who broke the vase.
He didn’t even give her a chance to explain.
Probably because she was angry, the old lady scolded without thinking, “You’re really a good-for-nothing. What kind of sin did you commit? Does our Jiang family have a grudge against you?”
Jiang Lingzhi originally wanted to explain, but the corners of her lips gradually straightened.
She probably didn’t know how hurtful those few simple words were.
Hearing the commotion, the others downstairs also rushed over.
Seeing the broken pieces on the floor of the study, the old man stomped the walking stick in his hand.”What happened? Why is this vase broken?”
Old Madam Barker could not calm down and said angrily,”Go ask your good granddaughter!”
“Did you do it?” The old man glared at Jiang Lingzhi.””Who allowed you to enter my study!”
Jiang Lingzhi also had a ball of fire in her heart. She suppressed her voice and explained, “”1 didn’t break this vase.”
“If it wasn’t you, then who? You’re the only one here. I don’t know what you’re doing in your room all day.”
Old Master Barker did not like her very much, so he simply pointed out all his dissatisfaction with her.”Have we mistreated you or something? It’s the new year, and you don’t even have a smile on your face all day.”
Jiang Puqing also rushed over. From afar, he saw Jiang Lingzhi’s reddened eyes as she shielded her behind him.”What’s wrong?
Old Madam Barker finally calmed down a little and was not as angry at her son anymore.”She broke your dad’s vase, so I said a few words to her.”
Jiang Puqing glanced at the broken pieces on the ground, then turned back to look at her and asked softly,””Zhizhi, are you hurt?”
