Nong Zhaohua

Chapter 56

The woman who conveyed the message for Aunt Gong was called Red Ginseng, she was considered to be more capable by Aunt Gong's side, she came back and told Aunt Gong what Yan Zhaoning had said, and Aunt Gong didn't express much after hearing this, so Red Ginseng couldn't help but said:
"Isn't Aunt angry? Miss Ning is too disrespectful to you, and the servant feels angry when she hears it."

Aunt Gong is in her early forties this year and is the mother of three children. She has taken good care of herself and looks like a woman in her 30s. Her eyebrows and eyes are full of charm and coquettish, and Yan Zhaoning's beauty is inherited from her.

"There's nothing to be angry about. One day, she will know who she can rely on in this family. "

The red ginseng thought for a while, and felt that what Aunt Gong said made sense, and said: "Now, Miss Ning's heart is on that one, and she is eager to please her, but this servant is watching, that one is not as good as before. Well, sooner or later, Miss Ning will regret coming back to look for Auntie."

Aunt Gong put down the dried flower in her hand, clapped her hands, and a little maid handed over a handkerchief. After she wiped her hands, she pursed her lips and said:

"The granddaughter of the first relative came over, so naturally she was no longer in her eyes, so what's so strange. At the beginning, I asked Lanniang to isolate that girl because she wanted Sister Ning to step on her. I didn't expect that girl to be a genius. The scheming that has been hidden for so many years is just waiting for an explosion. Let Lan Niang suffer such a big loss, even I was deceived, and Ning Jie is not the opponent of that girl without my guidance."

Of course the red ginseng knew that Aunt Gong was referring to Yan Zhaohua. It was Aunt Gong who asked Mrs. Xie to treat her with a soft policy, pinching her in the palm of her hand so that she could not fly high or jump far. At a young age, find another family to marry her at random, so that destroying a daughter-in-law would be unknowingly, unknowingly, and the most bloodless way, but I didn't expect that the child was so talented that he would die early. Seeing through everything, holding back a big move, waiting for an opportunity, it burst out in an instant, causing Xie to be blown to pieces.

"These days, there is news about Lan Niang. I always feel a little flustered. Have you delivered the things I asked you to prepare?"

After wiping her hands, Aunt Gong sat down and drank ginseng tea. She had a bowl of red date ginseng tea every day to nourish blood and qi, plus her special fragrant flower ointment.

The red ginseng nodded and replied: "It has already been delivered, and I guess it will arrive in a few days. Yuzhou is short of supplies, and the fourth girl is really pitiful. Now only my aunt can think about the fourth girl."

Aunt Gong was silent for a while before taking a sip of the tea, and said:

"Winner and loser, she lost because of being too greedy."

Saying this sentence, there is quite a bit of hatred in it.Indeed, Aunt Gong had originally held a good hand for the Xie family, replacing the eldest daughter of the Duke's Mansion as Chang Ninghou's successor, and holding his youngest son and daughter firmly in her hands. Without Xie Wei's silver taels of dowry, the fire would not be so prosperous, and she herself would not end up like this.

The face is calm, but after all, it is her own child. Aunt Gong is still a little worried about Xie's defeat in Yuzhou. She hastily sent someone to secretly send supplies to Xie's emergency, and she is also thinking about it. That said, if there is an opportunity in the future, it would be better to get her back.

But what Aunt Gong didn't expect was that bad news came from Yuzhou before she came up with a solution and waited for the opportunity.

Xie is seriously ill!

This news was brought back by the steward who sent Mrs. Xie back. It said that Mrs. Xie started vomiting and diarrhea within a few days after arriving at the Yuzhou farm. It has been several days.

Because the Marquis of Changning's mansion was burned down, Marquis of Changning left Beijing to go to war, and the steward sent the news to Duke Dingguo's mansion. Yan Zhaohua and Yan Zhaoning were called over by Mrs. Liu. After Yan Zhaoning heard the news, She passed out, and Yan Zhaohua felt a little surprised. It was hard to believe that Mrs. Xie was such a fragile person. After the manager left, Mrs. Gu said something from her heart:

"It's only been a few days since I left the capital. Could it be that I deliberately pretended to show it to the steward, just to get him to report back and arouse the sympathy of Marquis Changning?"

Mrs. Liu didn't speak, just sat silently thinking for a while, and then said:
"No matter what, let's send some people from the mansion to take a look, bring a few doctors and medicinal materials, and set off today."

Mrs. Gu got the order and went down to prepare. Yan Zhaohua sat there contemplating, and Mrs. Liu came over and asked, "What are you thinking? Don't be afraid, since we have already sent her there, we will never let her go." Make another storm."

After hearing this, Yan Zhaohua continued to remain silent. Something seemed to come to her mind, but it passed in a flash. She wasn't worried about Mrs. Xie causing another disturbance, but just felt that something was a little strange.

Suddenly there was a noise outside, Nanny Gui didn't stop Yan Zhaoning, she got in from under her armpit, Yan Zhaoning passed out and was sent back to the room to rest, after waking up, she walked into the living room, but Nanny Gui Momo didn't let her in, so she had no choice but to force her way in, vigorously opened the bead curtain, Yan Zhaoning threw herself into Liu Shi's arms, knelt down and said:

"Grandmother, Ning'er, I beg you, let mother come back. I heard from the servant girl that the place in Yuzhou lacks food and clothing, and is extremely barren. How can mother endure the hardship? Even if she made a mistake, she is now punished. Is the eldest sister dead, and she is still alive? Why should my mother suffer this pain outside! Does my grandmother really want to watch my mother suffer outside for the rest of her life? Ning'er is reluctant, Ning'er wants mother, grandmother, Ning'er, I beg you, let mother come back."

Liu Shi pulled out her hand and said to Yan Zhaoning:

"What do you look like, get up quickly. Your mother's business has nothing to do with you, so just leave it alone. "

As he said that, he wanted to pull Yan Zhaoning up, but who knew that Yan Zhaoning refused to get up, as if he had made up his mind to play tricks and tricks, he held Liu Shi's hand without letting go, and said with tears in his eyes :
"Grandmother, it's Ning'er who is begging you. Ning'er has never begged you for anything since she was a child. Today is the first time. As long as you promise Ning'er, Ning'er will listen to you in everything from now on. You should take pity on me." Well, Ning'er can't live without a mother. I want a mother, I want a mother."

Liu's complexion turned serious, as if being pestered by Yan Zhaoning tirelessly, she stood up abruptly, and said to Yan Zhaoning:

"Are you crazy, kid? Don't you understand what I'm saying? Don't bring this up again."

After finishing speaking, she was about to leave, but Yan Zhaoning didn't know what medicine she took wrongly today, or whether she was really confident that as long as she cried and made a fuss, Liu would feel sorry for her, and then agreed to her request.Seeing Liu's determination, Yan Zhaoning not only was not afraid, but stubbornly pulled out a golden hairpin from his head, and shouted savagely at his throat:
"If grandma doesn't agree, I will die in front of you."

Mrs. Liu glanced back at her, and seeing Yan Zhaoning's expression of "I don't believe you, you don't agree" on Yan Zhaoning's face, she didn't reject her immediately, but glanced at Nanny Gui, who stepped forward to persuade:

"Oh, my lady, what are you doing, quickly put down the hairpin, the point is sharp, carefully pierce the skin."

Yan Zhaoning showed his evil face: "What are you, get the hell out of here! I'm talking to my grandmother, so there's no place for you to intervene! Grandma, please be careful, Ning'er is not joking, if you don't agree to give mother to I'll take it back, Ning'er will die in front of you now!"

Liu seemed to have finally reached the limit, and said to Yan Zhaoning in a cold voice:
"In the past, I only thought of you as a sensible child, and I loved you so much, but I never thought that I would spoil you so unruly and willful. What do you think your mother was sent to Yuzhou for? She committed a crime." Sin, how can you, a child, be able to obliterate it with a few words? When did you become such an ignorant person in the Xieyan family? If you feel that you want to court death today, then die, and see if there is anyone stopping you in this yard !"

Yan Zhaoning was dumbfounded after listening to Liu Shi's words, and her hand loosened without realizing it. Of course, she didn't really want to commit suicide, and she didn't have the courage to poke it. She was just trying to scare people. But why can't Liu Shi be frightened?She always thought that even if she wasn't Liu's direct granddaughter, after all, she had grown up by her side and forced her to die, so she wouldn't be helpless. How stupid I am.

Seeing that the hairpin in her hand fell to the ground, Nanny Gui stepped forward and hugged Yan Zhaoning, fearing that she wouldn't think about it any more, when Liu Shi saw this, she snorted coldly again, and said:
"Hmph, I didn't learn from your mother, but I learned this kind of low-level behavior. Only market girls would do that kind of low-grade threat. Go to the yard and kneel for me until I realize that I made a mistake. until!"

Yan Zhaohua looked at Liu Shi in surprise, the light flashed in her mind again, this time she caught it, the conjecture in her mind surprised Yan Zhaohua quite a bit, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

After receiving Liu Shi's order, Grandma Gui didn't dare to be vague. After helping Yan Zhaoning up, she made a "please" gesture to her. Yan Zhaoning recovered from the previous shock and looked at Liu Shi's face. There was deep hatred in her eyes, she was dragged out of the door by Nanny Gui, and Nanny Gui called two maidservants, and asked them to drag Yan Zhaoning to the yard, and said to Yan Zhaoning :

"Miss Ning, bear with it first, the old lady is getting angry, and she will calm down later." Turning around, she said to the two maidservants: "Come on, bring two sets of soft cushions for Miss Ning, don't let those stones hurt the young lady. legs."

Yan Zhaoning was not grateful for Nanny Gui's private care, and even gave her a hard look. Nanny Gui couldn't help sighing when she looked at her.

Yan Zhaohua followed Liu Shi out of the hall, stood on the porch, watched Yan Zhaoning being pressed down and knelt down, a wind blew up in the yard, Yan Zhaohua looked up at the sky, only felt that the sky seemed to be covered by dark clouds, It should rain soon.

Looking at Liu Shi's unsmiling face from behind, Yan Zhaohua closed his eyes and thought.

I'm afraid that after this rain, Mrs. Xie won't live long.
