Lady Changning

Chapter 11

Tayue Pavilion.

Mingyu looked at her young lady's flushed face, and immediately asked someone to turn up the heater, and prepared clean clothes by the warm water pool.

"Miss, Mingyu is going to die in a hurry. He recovered from his illness a few days ago, why do he like to be cold now?" Mingyu muttered.

Hearing Mingyu's muttering, Xi Changning's mind finally came back.Now she is 13 years old, no husband, no children.She couldn't immerse herself in her previous life and forget the revenge she wanted in this life.

"Mingyu should really change your name to Myna." After regaining his senses, Xi Changning did not forget to tease Mingyu.

The maids and mothers around couldn't help laughing when they heard this.

"Miss, are you trying to make me happy? But, as long as miss is happy, at worst, I'll call you starling from now on." Mingyu always couldn't tell the difference between joking and seriousness, but now she's getting serious.

"Stupid. What use do I need your starling?"

Hehe, Mingyu giggled twice.The hand undressing her didn't slow down at all.

Xi Changning beckoned the maids and the old lady to go out, leaving Mingyu to wait by his side.

"Miss is so beautiful today, even more beautiful than the young lady." Mingyu stared blankly at Xi Changning and said.

"Mingyu, did you smear your mouth with honey or ate sweets today? Everyone you see says you are beautiful, and you even praised your second sister for her beauty just now."

"Of course not! Mingyu is serious. Mingyu is ignorant and doesn't know how to describe it in fancy sentences. Anyway, she is beautiful." Mingyu argued vigorously.

Originally today, I wanted to let Xi Hanxue know that there is no lack of beauty in the family.But the appearance of the third prince, and looking at Xi Lingyan's expression, always makes people feel very disturbed.

"Mingyu, in the past few days, you should pay attention to the Da Furen's yard carefully, and tell me if you have anything, but don't let people see it."

Although Mingyu is sometimes confused, she attaches great importance to the tasks assigned to her, and she does not make mistakes.

It seems that spring is approaching, and the heavy curtains have been taken down. The cool wind blows Xi Changning and feels sleepy at every turn.I don't know if it's because the days are too boring or I'm used to the harassment of some people every now and then.However, it seems that they have settled down recently, and it really feels like the well water does not violate the river water, but for Xi Changning, all this is just the calm before the storm.

"Fourth sister, you are in a daze again."

The soft little hand tugged on Xi Changning's skirt, and Xi Changning looked back at the owner of the little hand, Xi Yu.He looks like the fifth aunt, full of heroism, although young, but very handsome.

"Where's Yue'er? Why did you come running?"

On days when no one disturbs her, Xi Yu often comes here, she reads a book, and Xi Yu sits quietly and looks at her.She was very curious why Xi Yu was so clingy to her all of a sudden?
"Yue'er was coaxed to sleep by mother a long time ago."

Xi Yu naturally picked up the dessert Mingyu prepared for Xi Changning on the table and ate it.The two little legs were dangling on the soft couch, looking very uncomfortable.The pink face was still covered with dim sum residue.

Xi Changning watched Xi Yu's playfulness for some reason, stretched out his hand and pinched Xi Yu's face vigorously, Ren Xi Yu would not let go no matter how hard he struggled to break free.

"You must have run out while you were not paying attention."

Xi Yu was in pain, so he could only nod his head.Seeing that his little face was flushed, Xi Changning let go of his hands, rubbed him, and offered him some snacks to comfort him.

"Fourth sister, it's really bad."

"The young master is talking about how bad Miss Fourth is, why do you still run here all day?" Perhaps Xi Yu is so cute that even Mingyu couldn't help teasing her.

"Mingyu is bad too, I won't even prepare some delicious snacks for me."

"Young master, you are really joking. Look at your hand full of dim sum scum, and look at this plate. It's all bottomed out."

Seeing Mingyu's straightforward words, Xi Yu shyly wiped his hands on his body and kept rubbing against Xi Changning.Seeing this, both Xi Changning and Mingyu were amused.

"Mingyu is right, you kid runs here all day, and those who don't know think I've treated you badly."

A female voice sounded at the door, and one didn't need to guess to know who was coming.

"Mother." Xi Yu sweetly called for the visitor.

"Second Sister." Xi Changning was a little surprised by the person who came with Fifth Yiniang, Xi Lingyan.

Since the last dinner, it seems that San Yiniang deliberately asked Xi Lingyan to avoid Xi Changning.This can't be blamed on San Yiniang, who made her position in the prime minister's mansion so embarrassing, she is the master but she has to look at other people's faces.Xi Changning hasn't gained a firm foothold yet, and San Yiniang has always been well-behaved, and she certainly wouldn't rashly get too close to Xi Changning and anger the eldest lady.

"The girl Lingyan doesn't know what's going on, she wanders around by the river and doesn't come in." Fifth Yiniang added.

"Second Sister, have you ever cried?" Xi Yu pointed to Xi Lingyan's red and swollen eyes.

Xi Changning looked at Mingyu and signaled her with his eyes.Mingyu understood instantly, and led the servants out of the room.

"I don't want to go out." When he was about to take Xi Yu away, Xi Yu immediately hid behind Xi Changning.

"The grown-up is talking, why are you mixing it up, go back to the yard and see if Yue'er is awake." Fifth Yiniang coaxed.

"Mother will coax me. I can't get involved anymore. Don't look at me as young, I can do things more conveniently than you." Xi Yu would not leave anyway after making up his mind.

"Let him go. What Xi Yu said is true." Xi Changning looked at Xi Yu, who was like a little adult, and let him go, maybe it would be useful to him.

There was only one of us left in the room, and everyone waited to see what Xi Lingyan could say, who knew that Xi Lingyan would start crying as soon as she was quiet.I can't wait half a day for half a sentence.

"Lingyan, you are going to kill Fifth Aunt in a hurry." Fifth Aunt really didn't have the patience to wait any longer, even a little impatient.

Xi Changning was very calm, she had already heard about it from Mingyu.Since the last dinner, Xi Lingyan's excellence seemed to displease some people.He found a random reason to stop the supply of the third aunt's yard, and even the maids were halved.The eldest lady didn't allow the mother and daughter of the third aunt to talk nonsense, so the cowardly mother and daughter of the third aunt would be so obedient, and they really swallowed their anger.

"Is it the eldest lady?"

Seeing that Xi Lingyan remained silent, Xi Changning simply spoke out for Xi Lingyan.

Sure enough, when Xi Lingyan heard the words Da Furen, she immediately stopped crying, and looked at Xi Changning in horror.After a pause, he was eloquent.

"Mother is sick. Da Furen doesn't let the doctor enter the yard, and the maids in the yard are like being bought by Da Furen, and let Madam live and die." After finishing speaking, Xi Lingyan couldn't help crying again.

"This woman is lawless, what if someone dies?" Fifth Yiniang was impatient, so she naturally had something to say when she heard it.

"Fifth Aunt, don't scare Second Sister."

Xi Changning frowned, she didn't know that the matter had developed to this point, it seems that the eldest lady kept it a secret.It's not that Xi Changning didn't know what happened to Third Aunt before, but she was waiting, waiting for Xi Lingyan to call for help.It's not that she doesn't care, but that she will only let the lady catch her if she makes a rash move.But if Xi Lingyan came forward, everything would be justified, and the most important thing is to be able to get San Yiniang's complete affirmation.

"Changning, I don't know who to turn to anymore. This morning, my mother was seriously ill again, and the eldest lady didn't let me out of the yard, so I ran out while a maid was lazy." Xi Lingyan seemed to see a life-saving straw He looked at Xi Changning intently.

In fact, she hesitated too, that's why she has been wandering by the Tayue Pavilion Lake. Changning is now a thorn in the side of the eldest lady. If she helps her, the eldest lady will definitely hate Changning even more, and Changning may not help her.When she was hesitating, she happened to meet Fifth Yiniang, so she had the courage to follow Fifth Yiniang in.

"Second sister, don't worry. The eldest lady is very important in the mansion, and we have no proof. Even if those maids finally tell who instructed them to do this, the eldest lady will just find a reason to fool them. When there is a delay, yes Find a doctor to see Third Aunt."

Xi Changning analyzed.

"But how to do it?" Fifth Aunt asked.

Xi Changning thought about it for a while, and happened to see Xi Yu who was listening to them seriously with a serious face, and thought about it.Wu Yiniang and Xi Lingyan followed Xi Changning's gaze, and Xi Yu felt something was wrong.

"Xi Yu, what a coincidence. You can really do this."

Xi Changning beckoned to Xi Yu, and told the plan from beginning to end.

"Fourth sister, is this what you said I can do? Judging from your plan, it should be said that I can only do this."

Although Xi Yu was a little reluctant, he still walked towards the door.

"Just now you said you wanted to help, but now you're not willing? You have the heart to watch Third Yiniang suffer and your second sister cry?" Xi Changning said threateningly.

Xi Yu looked at Xi Lingyan who was crying again, and finally quickened his pace.

"Lingyan, you'd better go back to the yard quickly, lest those maids find you missing and report to that woman." Fifth Yiniang urged.

Xi Lingyan felt that it made sense and immediately nodded and got up to leave.

"Second sister, these maids are servants after all. If you want your father to fancy you, you have to do it yourself."

Xi Changning didn't know if Xi Lingyan understood what Xi Changning said, but if she had some courage, she would definitely understand the meaning of what she said. Without Xi Changning, she would only be able to help for a while but not for a lifetime.

After listening to Xi Changning's words, Xi Lingyan was thoughtful.But her heart was still beating rattles, since that dinner, mother kept her away from Chang Ning.It's not that she doesn't understand that the Prime Minister's house seems to be calm but actually they are fighting in private. The mother is not a concubine, and she thinks she can't beat the eldest lady, but the law-abiding ones live in peace.But she was getting closer to Chang Ning, and the eldest lady seemed very dissatisfied. If she couldn't hold Chang Ning, the eldest lady took her mother and had her surgery.If it goes on for a long time, they will not have a good life.The only way is what Chang Ning said, always have a reputation to stand up.

"Fifth Yiniang can't do without you in this drama. This father doesn't dare to make you angry. Presumably this eldest lady will definitely suffer from you."

"Changning, please don't flatter me. I have long disliked that woman, and I'd be happy to make her suffer." Fifth Yiniang agreed very quackly.

Seeing the forthrightness of the fifth aunt, Xi Changning had to think that Xi Jian was lucky. He had the help of his wife in his official career, but he was followed by a heroine in love.Although the home is chaotic, it is at least peaceful on the surface.However, Xi Jian was born in a family of officials all the time, and his body was contaminated with a lot of corruption in the officialdom, and it seemed that he could not be satisfied with the power.It's okay in the peaceful world now, but if it caught up with the troubled times, I'm afraid the name of treacherous officials would have been impounded to death.
