Chapter 35

Nalan Ying's eyes flickered, she lowered her head and thought, this Nalan Qiuting is also smart, he obviously saw Aunt Qiu from his own yard, but he didn't mention a word, it seems that he has separated himself from him, right? ?Thinking of this, he couldn't help but cast his cold eyes towards Nalan Qiuting, only to see that she didn't look at her, as if she was avoiding something.

"Nalan Ying, why are you still standing there stupidly? Why don't you greet your grandmother?" Prime Minister Nalan, who was sitting on the side, frowned and scolded.

"Nalanying pays respects to grandma!" Nalanying hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

Seeing her blank expression, the old lady's eyes flickered with disgust, she frowned and said: "Get up!" The tone was not as close as she was to Nalan Qiuting, but it was easy for others to hear it.

Nalan Ying stood up, and seeing Nalan Qiuting sitting beside Nalan Qing, she frowned slightly.

Nalan Qiuting turned pale, and quickly blinked at Nalan Ying, motioning for her to sit beside him.

"Sister Qiuting, I'm tall and you're young. Should I be allowed to sit next to Big Sister?" Nalan Ying said with a smile.

Nalan Qiuting's face changed, and she smiled awkwardly: "Oh, it's all my sister's fault. I just saw my grandmother, and I was confused for a while, and I forgot the distinction between senior and young. Fortunately, it was the fourth sister who reminded me. !” Saying that, she got up and gave up her seat to Nalan Ying.

Nalan Qing's face darkened, and she glanced at Nalan Ying with fixed eyebrows. It turned out that Nalan Ying never cared about the difference in seats. Nalan Qiuting always sat in front of her, and she sat at the end. On the other hand, why did you care about it today?
Seeing Nalan Qing's suspicious expression, Nalan Ying smiled lightly and said, "So Big Sister is here today?"

"Well, I'm here to pay my respects to grandma!" Nalan Qing replied softly.

"Inviting the fourth girl over today, I have something to tell you!" Old Prime Minister Nalan said joyfully.

"What's the matter?" Nalan Ying asked pretending not to know.

"Father received a commendation from the Holy Majesty in the court hall today!" Old Prime Minister Nalan said quite proudly.

"Well, to be rewarded by the current Holy Majesty, it is my Majesty Nalanzu who is blessing us!" The old lady said softly.

"Yes, what mother said is that the child will definitely offer incense to the ancestors later, and tell them about this great event!" Old Prime Minister Nalan nodded and said.

"En!" The old lady nodded in satisfaction.

Nalan Qiuting and Nalan Qing looked at each other, they were puzzled, why did the Holy Father reward his father, but why did he want to tell the fourth girl?
Seeing the doubts flashing across the faces of the two of them, Prime Minister Nalan smiled and said, "You two must have doubts in your heart, right?"

"Daughter dare not!" Nalan Qing said with her head bowed.

"It's okay, I should tell you about this too!" Old Prime Minister Nalan said with a smile.

"Father, does this matter have anything to do with Fourth Sister?" Nalan Qiuting asked hesitantly.

"Well, the lion dancer that night was none other than Si Yatou!" Old Prime Minister Nalan said with a smile.

"Ah?" Nalan Qing and Nalan Qiuting's eyes widened in shock at the same time, especially Nalan Qiuting, who was even more unbelievable. She remembered clearly that that night, Qiuyue told her that Miss Fourth had a cold, so I can't accompany them out to watch the lion dance competition.

"Father, could it be that I made a mistake? Daughter remembers that that night, Fourth Sister caught the cold!" Nalan Qiuting questioned suspiciously.

Prime Minister Nalan's face darkened, and he glanced at Nalan Ying.

"To save my sister from worrying, I came up with such an excuse!" Nalan Ying said with a smile.

"Fourth sister, are you even lying to Qiu Ting?" Nalan Qiuting's originally bright eyes instantly became misty, making people look like they couldn't bear it.

"I'm not lying to you, I'm just afraid you'll be worried!" Nalan frowned indistinctly.

Nalan Qing was smart and did not speak, she believed that Nalan Qiuting would ask the doubts in her heart.

"Okay, no matter who it is, it is an indisputable fact that my Nalan family won the competition! Fourth girl, think about it quickly, what kind of reward do you want?" The old lady said impatiently, frowning.

Nalan Ying's heart skipped a beat, the opportunity she wanted had finally come, she could not help clenching her hands tightly, and faintly felt the sweat in her palms.

"Yes, fourth girl, what kind of reward are you going to ask for right now?" The old Prime Minister Nalan had rare kindness in his eyes.

"Father, let Ying'er think about it?" Nalan Ying said with a smile.

"Yeah!" Prime Minister Nalan nodded.

The old lady looked at Nalan Ying with gloomy eyes, she only felt that the four girls were a little different from the past, and she couldn't figure out what was the difference, she was disturbed watching and confused, only thinking about Can send this girl out quickly, so her face is full of impatience.

"Fourth sister, this is a rare opportunity!" Nalan Qing smiled softly from the side.

"Thank you, Big Sister, for reminding, Ying'er knows it well!" Nalan Ying said with her head bowed.

A cold light flashed in the depths of Nalan Qing's eyes, and she felt uneasy in her heart. Originally, she was the most outstanding person in front of this old lady. She always revolved around her, but today she was robbed by that cheap girl. In the limelight, she even said that the lion dancer was actually played by her. When did she have such a powerful ability? That night, she could see clearly that the lion dancer was really good at it.

Just when Nalan Qing lowered her head to think, Nalan Ying raised her head and said: "Father, Ying'er wants to be the master of her own marriage!"

As soon as these words came out, the smile froze on Nalan's old Prime Minister's face, and immediately, the disgust in the depths of his eyes flooded fiercely.

"Presumptuous!" The old lady on the side said angrily.

"Grandmother, why not?" Nalan Ying's burning eyes swept towards the old lady.

"A girl, you still want to control your freedom of marriage. You should say such rebellious words?" The old lady roared with a trembling voice.

"Grandmother, don't be angry, the fourth sister is just young, so calm down after she said nonsense!" Nalan Qing hurriedly stood up, threw herself on the edge of the old lady's bed, and comforted the old lady.

"Qing'er, you said that this girl is really so hateful!" the old lady scolded.

A look of coldness flashed across the corner of Nalan Ying's eyes. Why did the old lady scold her so much when she proposed freedom of marriage? It seems that this marriage was also facilitated by the old lady.

"Nonsense!" Old Prime Minister Nalan gave her a disgusted look.

"Father asked Ying'er what reward he wanted!" Nalan Ying said with a frown.

"Won't you want other rewards? Food, clothing, utility, which one is not enough, why do you say such outrageous things like this, so unpleasant?" Old Prime Minister Nalan said annoyed.
