Chapter 457: Little Sister Takes Action, Jin Mansion in Trouble (7)_1
Looking across, seated were the parents of Legal Wife Jin Yuyu from the main branch. Although Jin Xufa was the Head of Jin Family, his aspirations lay elsewhere. Despite being someone who had hardly received any formal education, he had an inexplicable interest in inkstones. Even in such a tense and explosive moment as this, he was tightly clutching an inkstone, and that wasn’t enough; he watched it like a hawk, as if afraid it would grow legs and run away.
Next to him was his wife, Lady Hong, who also came from a distinguished family. Her posture and expression alone were enough to reveal that she was a woman of great refinement. However, at this moment, even a woman as cultivated as she could hardly maintain her composure.
Her daughter was being accused of plotting to murder her own grandmother and was kneeling on the ground. Lady Hong’s face was full of anxiety and helplessness, and what made it worse was that her husband was so unreliable, which made her feel like her hair was turning white.
"Mother, Yukyuk is your own flesh and blood; how could she possibly conspire with an outsider to harm you? You must believe in her," Lady Hong pleaded as she twisted her handkerchief nervously and stood up from the chair.
Seeing that Old Lady Jin only kept her eyes closed and said nothing, Lady Hong bit her lip and turned to her daughter, saying, "Yukyuk, say something."
Jin Yuyu looked calmly at her mother. She had never seen her mother so out of sorts before; she was clearly in a terrible state today.
Jin Yuyu felt sorry for her mother. Although she hadn’t intended to explain, for her mother’s sake she finally spoke up, "Grandmother, this matter was not my doing. Please believe me."
