Chapter 224 Heartless Family
Five servants came in together, each holding a delicate mahogany tray.

"Snow lotus from Tianshan Mountain, ginseng from Changbai Mountain, high-quality deer antler, astragalus angelica, these are all nourishing things for you." Du Yinyin uncovered the red cloth on it.

"You can tell me what else you need. The General's Mansion has few things, but there are so many medicinal materials."

There was already a gleam of fire between Chu Ying's brows.

"Miss Du, do you think Mr. Chu is a weak and sick man?"

A clear and dignified voice came from outside the door, Xiao Ning walked in slowly, looking at the row of herbs, the corner of his mouth curled up playfully.

"Xiao Ning?" Du Yinyin recognized the person in front of her, a look of disgust flashed in her eyes, "Why are you here? And you call him Mr. Chu, do you know him?"

"Miss Du has so many questions, which one should I answer first?" Xiao Ning chuckled coldly, walked up to Chu Ying and gestured calmly to him.

Not to mention that the hero saving the beauty was a scene, even if Chu Ying really saved Du Yinyin, he couldn't be rude to the general's daughter.

This eldest lady is well known in Beijing for her fiery temper.

Today I can give you tonics, and tomorrow I can give you a severe beating.

"My lord, do you know her?" Du Yinyin's eyes flashed with displeasure when seeing the two of them approaching.

Chu Ying nodded: "Shopkeeper Xiao has shown me kindness."

Hearing the word 'en', the fire in Du Yinyin's eyes was instantly ignited.She wants to repay the favor, but he refuses to die.He repayed the other party's kindness very quickly, which is clearly partiality.

"Xiao Ning, you are so close to a foreigner even as a married woman, it's no wonder that rumors about you are raging in the capital recently, it seems that there is no reason for it." Du Yinyin snorted coldly, with disdain between her brows.

The implication is to accuse Xiao Ning of not paying attention to his words and deeds.

"Miss Du, you are not afraid of the slanting shadow. I have a clear relationship with shopkeeper Xiao. I also have a relationship with His Highness, so don't talk nonsense!" Chu Ying took a step forward, his voice became much colder.

Du Yinyin bit her lip, her eyebrows blushed even more: "You say you are innocent, but outsiders will believe you! How can you do such a suspicious thing like a talent!"

Chu Ying was also annoyed: "When did I do something that would attract suspicion? The windows and doors are wide open on all sides here, and there are people coming and going from outside the medical hut. Ms. Du was in the same room with me just now and she didn't think it would arouse suspicion. I have never been alone with shopkeeper Xiao, so why is it wrong!"

Du Yinyin's eyes were moist, and she was about to cry.

"Okay, okay, I just heard that Mr. Chu is ill, so I came to visit. Unexpectedly, I came at a bad time. Next time, I will definitely bring a few friends of Mr. Chu to avoid suspicion." Xiao Ning saw that they were going to quarrel. , quickly came up to smooth things over.

Du Yinyin stomped her feet fiercely, she just flung her sleeves and left in anger.

"It's really inexplicable." Chu Ying shook his head helplessly.

With amusement in Xiao Ning's eyes, he only smiled mysteriously.

Miss Du's family is not ignorant, she is jealous.

"Young master Chu is so handsome, even the daughter of the general's mansion is very fond of you." Xiao Ning turned his eyes and looked at Chu Ying playfully, seeing his cold and heartless face, he sighed secretly in his heart.

This nerd is really incomprehensible.

"I owed her a life-saving favor, and Miss Du's family just came to repay the favor, which is nothing more than a favor." Chu Ying held his breath in his heart, and frowned tightly.

Xiao Ning chuckled and glanced at the precious ingredients on the side: "Miss Du of the General's Mansion is domineering and domineering. She never pays attention to young masters and handsome talents, thinking that they are hypocrites who can only talk about benevolence and morality. You, her attitude just now is not normal."

Although she didn't know much about Du Yinyin, she had heard a lot of the obvious rumors, otherwise the original master's memory wouldn't be so deep.

"Ms. Du was also taught etiquette by the maid in the palace of the General's House. She still understands some principles, so she should be polite to the savior. I accepted her gift, and when we met again later, she thought If you pay me back, you won't be so polite to me."

Chu Ying also looked at the pile of precious ingredients wrapped in red thread, his eyes full of helplessness.

He just received some internal injuries, just drink some Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction and he will be fine.Wherever these tonics are needed, he is not afraid to get angry.

"But judging from the ginseng snow lotus she sent, Miss Du's treatment of you is more than just kindness." Xiao Ning picked up a ginseng plant, the roots on it were all golden yellow, not damp at all, obviously a treasure If Du Yinyin just wanted to repay her kindness, she could spend some money to buy tonics from the herbal medicine shop outside, instead of taking out such a rare ginseng.Thinking about it, this should be a rare item in the General's Mansion.

"Miss, worry too much." Chu Ying covered the ginseng snow lotus with a handkerchief, called the little medicine boy outside, and asked them to help send the things back to the general's mansion.

Xiao Ning hurriedly stopped: "Miss Du's family gave you something, if you return it so rashly, won't it be said that you don't know how to compliment."

The General's Mansion never gave gifts lightly, and even if General Du was not annoyed, Miss Du's family would not be able to swallow this.

"Then I can't take it. These things are worth a thousand taels, if I accept them. If I accept them, I will also be criticized, saying that I am asking for a favor." Chu Ying also felt that it was inappropriate to return them, but he Such rare medicinal materials must not be accepted.

Xiao Ning put all those kinds of herbs in a plate, and said softly: "I will go to the General's Mansion to return it for you, but Miss Du's family has already thought about you, so I can't help you."

Chu Ying's complexion changed, and he coughed twice, feeling a little embarrassed.

After leaving the Hall of Rejuvenation, Xiao Ning got into the carriage and headed to the General's Mansion.

"Make it easier for me, let's go to the General's Mansion together." Xiao Ning suddenly thought of something, "Didn't you say that you suspect that there is something wrong with the marriage between the Du family and the Song family? explore."

Si Ruiyan was startled, he didn't expect Xiao Ning to say such a thing.

"Why are you looking at me like this?" Xiao Ning was also taken aback, why Si Ruiyan looked at her as if she was looking at a stranger.

Si Ruiyan raised his eyebrows slightly, and said softly, "I thought you'd lose your memory and change your aggressive temper, but I didn't expect you to act so boldly."

Xiao Ning slammed his shoulder hard, frowning in displeasure: "What does it mean to act recklessly? I call it courageous. If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch a tiger's cub. You may have unexpected gains in this line of work."

The General's Mansion was heavily guarded, but it was not a place where Si Ruiyan could be trapped.Otherwise, when he was hunted down, he would not have been able to escape and let her save him on the way.

"However, what is the connection between the Du family and the Song family?" Xiao Ning couldn't help being curious, as the two families seemed to be completely irreconcilable.

One is the hot general's mansion, and the other is the declining scholarly family.

Civilian and military generals have always disliked each other, although the marriage of these two families is a bit weird.But seeing Song Rui and Wen Qinger love each other so much, it seems that there is nothing strange about it.

"The matter is not yet clear, so it's not convenient for me to tell you the inside story for the time being. When I find a solid clue, I will tell you slowly." Si Ruiyan's eyes suddenly darkened.

Seeing his face change, Xiao Ning didn't ask any further questions.

This must have something to do with Wei and Zhou, otherwise Si Ruiyan wouldn't have kept silent like this.

Not long after, the carriage arrived in front of the General's Mansion.
