Xiangmen black-bellied woman

Chapter 239 Running in the Rain
Bai Zhi frowned: "What's going on?"

"I beg the princess to be merciful. The old lady wants to see you for the last time. You can't be so cold-blooded."

"Presumptuous!" Bai Yu was furious, crying so much at this time, is it because he dislikes the matter is not big enough?
Shen Ninghua's brows were tinged with frost: "Bring that person in."

A drenched servant was brought into the hall by twisting his arms.

The young man was brought into the hall, and immediately stopped crying, and knelt down facing Shen Ninghua, with a flattering voice: "I have seen Your Highness the Princess."

Shen Ninghua sat on the seat, looked down at the kneeling person on the ground, and asked aloud: "I remember that you are a servant of the Shen family, and you have been working as a servant in the old lady's yard, right?"

"It's the slave, the slave Wu Ping has seen the princess."

"Wu Ping? You should be Nanny Wu's son."

"Yes, it's a slave. I didn't expect it to be so long. The princess still remembers the slave. The slave is really flattered." Wu Ping knelt on the ground, but his eyes were looking at the layout of Shen Ninghua's room from time to time, and a bright light flashed in his eyes from time to time.

Shen Ninghua smiled slightly: "You rode all the way here, isn't it hard to walk in the rain?"

"Yeah, it was a rainy day, and there were still many ordinary people on the road. They almost bumped into them. They were clever servants. They got out of trouble by reporting the name of Princess Zhaohua's Mansion. Otherwise, they would still be on the road now."

There was a cold light in Bai Ping's eyes, and he wished he could be chopped off: This brazen slave!

Hearing this, Shen Ninghua's eyes darkened. It seems that many people already know that Xiao's disease is important to see her: "Bai Ji, Wu Ping has worked hard all the way here, give him some silver, and take him to change clothes by the way. , the whole body is soaked, and the weather is very cold, it will be bad if you get a cold."

Hearing Yin Zi, Wu Ping's eyes gleamed, and he quickly knelt down and kowtowed, his sincerity was many times higher than before: "Thank you, princess, thank you, princess!"

Bai Ping suppressed his anger and ordered people to take Wu Ping down.

"Miss, this Wu Ping looks like he's been used as an outcast. What are you keeping him for?"

"At this time, nothing is clear, so naturally we can't act rashly. Although Wu Ping is greedy and ignorant, such a small person may be of great use. Anyway, it doesn't hurt to keep it. Let him live for a few more days."

Bai Ping nodded, seeing that Shen Ninghua had been looking out the window, the worry in his heart became more and more serious: "It's still spring, how can there be such a heavy rain, and the old lady has an accident at this time, it's really worrying .”

There was the sound of pattering rain, and Shen Ninghua couldn't tell the difference between joy and anger: "I'm afraid someone specially chose such a weather."

Bai Ping was so startled that his heart trembled: "Miss, do you think it might be the Xiao family who made the move this time? After all, the old Patriarch Xiao just came to make a fuss before."

"It's all possible, who knows for sure." Shen Ninghua said, suddenly turned her head to look at the door, Bizhu walked in quickly, her voice was anxiously reporting:
"Miss, the master is here, and he is hurrying towards the mansion, saying he wants to see you."

Shen Ninghua's eyes froze, she looked at Shen Dong who was striding in under the rain, and nodded slightly: "I saw it."

Shen Dong's face turned blue, he didn't know whether he was anxious or was frozen by the rain, only when he entered the door and saw Shen Ninghua's eyes softened a little: "Ninghua, follow me to see your grandmother, she is very ill, this time I'm afraid No, I want to see you now."

Shen Ninghua stood there without moving a muscle: "Father came here in the heavy rain and was completely soaked, so let's change clothes first, don't let grandma recover, you fell ill first."

Shen Dong frowned: "Why do you care so much, just follow me."

Shen Ninghua shook her head: "It's raining so hard now, and the carriage hasn't been prepared yet, so father sit down and have a cup of tea first."

Shen Dong suddenly raised his head and stared at Shen Ninghua, with disbelief in his voice: "Aren't you planning to go to see your grandmother with me for the last time if you shirk like this?"

"Where is the father talking, I will naturally go."

"Since you will go, what are you going to do? I ordered someone to drive a carriage over and wait at the door. Let's go."

Shen Ninghua shook her head: "I want to go, but not at this time."

"What?" Shen Dong was full of anger, "Your grandmother is about to die, and she said she wanted to see you for the last time, but you still pushed back and forth, Ninghua, your status is different now, don't you even want to be human?"

"Father, I am under confinement and cannot leave the Princess Mansion."

"You don't have to worry about that. Father has just entered the palace to beg the emperor, and the emperor has already lifted your ban."

Shen Ninghua asked: "It's raining so hard outside, and father doesn't have an official position, how could he get into the palace?"

"I happened to meet the servant of Chengqian Hall outside the palace, and he helped to enter the palace to report, without any delay."

Shen Ninghua sneered in her heart, what a coincidence: "It's not that there was no delay at all, from the time the news of my grandmother's illness came, to the moment you came to ask me to meet her in Shen's residence, less than an hour had passed."

"Ninghua, what do you mean? Are you afraid that your father will harm you?"

Shen Ninghua looked directly into Shen Dong's eyes, her black eyes were bottomless: "Ninghua dare not, but I won't go there until Chu Junyi comes back."

"Chu Junyi? He was called into the palace by the emperor, and he doesn't know when he will come back. When are you going to wait?" Shen Dong said angrily.

"No matter when I wait, I will wait."

Shen Dong slammed the tea cup beside the table: "Shen Ninghua, is this a complete abandonment of filial piety?"

Shen Ninghua didn't respond, just watching the rain outside the door that was getting bigger and bigger.

Shen Dong didn't get a response, so he suddenly laughed out loud: "Haha, good, that's good! When the Shen family was defeated and you took your grandmother to support, how many people said that you never forget filial piety, now it seems that you are It's just a play, now I want you to go and see your dying grandmother, but I won't let you go!"

Shen Dong said the word please very seriously, his eyes almost burst into flames.

Shen Ninghua was unmoved in the slightest: "Father, no matter what you say at this time, it's useless. I won't risk my child."

A trace of sadness flashed across Shen Dong's face, and he said with a livid face: "Okay, since that's the case, then I won't make things difficult for you. Your Royal Highness, the grass people will leave here." After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked into the heavy rain, walking quickly Left the princess mansion.

Shen Ninghua sat on the chair silently, and did not respond for a while.

Bai Lu was very worried, but he didn't know how to say: "Miss, take care of yourself and think about your little master."

Shen Ninghua sighed slightly: "It's okay, you went to see Hongling, but you're back?"

About half an hour later, Hong Ling ran in drenched and said, "Miss, the son-in-law is back."

Chu Junyi hurried back all the way, feeling extremely annoyed.As soon as he entered the door, he saw Shen Ninghua with an unhappy expression: "Ninghua, I'm late."

Shen Ninghua shook her head: "It's okay, don't talk about anything else, go to Shen's residence and see grandma."

"it is good."

Chu Junyi didn't change his clothes, and walked out with Shen Ninghua regardless of the soaked clothes sticking to his body.

The carriage traveled extremely fast all the way, braving the heavy rain and advancing rapidly.

Shen Ninghua looked at the street through the window of the carriage, and unexpectedly saw many people standing under the buildings on both sides to shelter from the rain, pointing at the carriage.

Shen Ninghua closed her eyes slightly, suppressing the coldness in her eyes, her reputation of unfilial piety might spread completely, what a vicious move!
As soon as the carriage stopped, Chu Junyi got off the horse and walked over, helping Shen Ninghua get off the carriage.

Qing Que held an umbrella to cover Shen Ninghua's body, trying not to let her get wet in the rain, but it was raining heavily and it was windy. Not long after she came out, Shen Ninghua's skirt was wet.

Originally, Shen's Mansion was temporarily used as Shen Ninghua's Princess Mansion, but after the new Princess Mansion was built, it was restored as Shen's Mansion.

At this time, Vermilion's door was firmly closed, apparently not having the slightest intention of welcoming people.

Hong Ling stepped forward to knock on the door against the rain, and knocked hard for a long time but no one came.

Chu Junyi frowned tightly: "Ninghua, you stay in the carriage first, I'll call the door."

Shen Ninghua nodded, the rain was too cold, she couldn't risk her child.

Just as she was about to get into the carriage, the door was suddenly opened.Shen Ninghua turned her head to look over, and saw Shen Dong who was dressed in linen and filial piety.

"What are you here for?"

Shen Ninghua stood still again: "Come and see grandma."

Shen Dong's face was sullen: "Your Highness, the princess made a mistake. You have already lost the slightest relationship with the Shen family, and the Xiao family is not your grandmother. I'm really sorry to trouble the princess, please go back."

Shen Ninghua didn't care about Shen Dong's bad attitude, she frowned and asked, "Grandma passed away?"

Shen Dong sneered: "Yes, she passed away. She wanted to see her granddaughter when she was dying, but she didn't see her. She just passed away with regret! Is Your Highness satisfied?"

"I'll go in and see grandma."

Shen Dong took a step forward to block the door: "Don't dare to bother Your Highness the Princess, you are worth a fortune, don't be contaminated by the filthy atmosphere here, Princess, please come back, come here, and close the door!"

Immediately, a young man pushed the door of the mansion and closed it firmly with a bang.

Hong Ling's face was ugly, and she kicked the door fiercely: "Princess, I will open the door forcibly."

"Stop!" Shen Ninghua stopped Hong Ling's movements, "Let's go back."

"Princess?" Hong Ling was surprised, after tossing and tossing for so long, she just went back like this?
"Go back!" Shen Ninghua's voice was as cold as ice.

Chu Junyi withdrew his gaze, turned around and helped Shen Ninghua get into the carriage: "Let's go, let's go back first."

In the princess mansion, seeing Shen Ninghua come back so quickly, Bai Lu was very surprised: "Princess, you came back so soon?"

Chu Junyi frowned and swept over Bai Ping: "Don't talk about anything else, first prepare hot water for the princess to bathe and change clothes."

Shen Ninghua's skirt was more than half wet, and feeling the warmth in the room made her feel better.

Bai Ping was full of worry: "Yes, this servant is going to prepare hot water."
