Chapter 51

He walked to the old house and stood still, raised his hand and knocked on the knocker, and after a while, someone came to open the door.

The boy who opened the door was the boy who came in with a book in his arms. His hair and clothes were still wet, and he obviously didn't have time to change them.

"Miss, who are you looking for?" Sang Ning's voice was soft and gentle.

Ning Jinsi used the eaves of the umbrella to cover most of the upper half of her face, only a little bit of her chin could be seen. Hearing Sang Ning's question, she slowly raised the umbrella upwards, and a delicate and beautiful face appeared in Sang Ning's eyes .

"I'm looking for... Ning Jinrou."

Ning Jinsi tilted her head and looked at him with a slight smile, revealing two shallow dimples. She was already very weak, especially when she smiled, she was not as sharp as before.

Sang Ning looked her up and down, his eyes flashed with vigilance, and asked, "Who are you? Why are you looking for Ning Jinrou?"

He had never met Ning Jinsi before, he rarely saw anyone from the Ning family, even though he had lived in this house for a long time, occasionally sneaking out would still go to the General's Mansion to meet Ning Jinrou.

"I'm Ning Jinsi." Ning Jinsi briefly introduced herself.

It was only then that Sang Ning remembered that Ning Jinrou had a younger sister named Ning Jinsi. He had never met her before, so it was normal that she didn't know her.

He opened the door more than half, and let her in: "Miss Ning Si, come in quickly, my sister is in the Ewha Garden to the east."

Ning Jinsi nodded, and walked in with an umbrella in one hand and a skirt in the other.

The old house that was originally overgrown with weeds is now full of greenery. Most of the trees planted are perennial greens. There are also pear blossoms and a few wintersweet plants in the yard. Two orange lanterns are hung on the eaves. A few small fish.

Ning Jinsi walked on the wooden bridge, the water flowed here along the rockery, and then circled under the rockery, there were a few aquatic plants in the water, rippling in the water.

"How long have you lived here?" Ning Jinsi asked.

Sang Ning, who had been following Ning Jinsi, was a little stunned by her sudden question.

Ning Jinsi took two steps forward, but didn't get a response, stopped and turned to look at him and asked again: "I asked how long have you lived here?"

"Ah?" Sang Ning came to his senses and replied, "I've lived here for a long time, so I don't remember clearly."

Lived for a long time?

Ning Jinsi thought about what he said, and paused before speaking: "Second Sister let you live in?"

"Yes." Sang Ning replied truthfully.

He didn't know about Ning Jinsi, but he knew that Ning Jinrou's younger sister was the daughter of the general's mansion. She had superb medical skills, was outstanding in appearance, and was a first-class beauty. She told him all these things.

Since it was my sister who said it, it was all right.

He followed Ning Jinsi, wherever she went, he followed her.

Ning Jinsi held an umbrella like this, and went around the old house. The rain gradually became lighter, and Sang Ning didn't hold an umbrella, but she could hold it.

Finally, Ning Jinsi walked towards the Pear Blossom Courtyard to the east.

Pear Blossom Courtyard, as the name suggests, is a yard where many pear blossoms are planted. Ning Jinrou likes pear blossoms. No matter where she is, as long as she lives, she will plant pear blossom trees.

Ning Jinrou was sitting at a low table under the eaves. There were two or three plates of pastries on the table, and a bottle of pear blossom wine next to it. She was very leisurely and elegant, enjoying the flowers and watching the rain fall.

"Second sister hasn't returned home for a long time."

Ning Jinsi walked to the table and handed the umbrella to Sang Ning, then turned her head: "Help me put it down, thank you."

Ning Jinrou didn't raise her eyes, "Sit down, isn't it the same whether you go back or not?"

"How could it be the same?" Ning Jinsi came uninvited and sat down at the table to take a piece of pastry and asked for a bite: "Prince Jin got married some time ago, why didn't he see Second Sister to see?"

Ning Jinrou gritted her teeth, did not speak, and took a sip of pear blossom brew.

The two were silent, and after a while, when it was getting dark and the pastries were almost eaten, Ning Jinsi said, "I heard that Daddy made a marriage promise to Second Sister?"

"So what?" Ning Jinrou raised her head and looked at her coldly.

"It's nothing," Ning Jinsi Ruo said intentionally or unintentionally, "I heard that the son of the city lord of Liangzhou is a gambler by nature, surrounded by a cloud of beauties, but he is a man who loves to gamble and whore, and if my sister marries him, will it be okay?" Happiness, if someone took down the son of the Liangzhou city lord, wouldn't it be..."

As she spoke, she looked up at Ning Jinrou, ignored her expression, didn't say any more, took a sip of pear blossom brew.

"What do you mean?" Ning Jinrou suddenly raised her head and asked her.

Ning Jinsi smiled and said, "Second sister is so smart, how could she not have thought of it? How many beautiful women can there be in Chang'an City?"

Ning Jinrou listened to her words, bowed her head and pondered for a moment, and when she was about to speak, she saw Ning Jinsi put her index finger to her mouth in advance, raised a smile, and said softly: "Second sister just understands in her heart, don't need to say it out to make it worse." I know."

After speaking, he got up and left. It was no longer raining outside, and a little rainbow appeared in the dark sky. The moon slowly rose and hung in half the sky.

Ning Jinrou looked at the back of her leaving for a long time before she looked away. Of course she knew that Ning Jinsi was using her as a weapon, but if she didn't do so, she would be sent to Liangzhou .

To put it nicely, she is the daughter-in-law of the city lord of Liangzhou, but to put it badly, she is the toy of the city lord of Liangzhou's son.

When I went out to play a few days ago, I accidentally ran into Zhao Xuanyi, the son of the Liangzhou City Lord.

Originally thought that this Zhao Xuanyi was a handsome gentleman, but who knew that he was a beast by nature, and when he saw her good-looking, he wanted to do it. After being rejected by her, he asked the Liangzhou city lord to personally send a betrothal gift, saying that he wanted to marry her for his son.

The Liangzhou city lord's sincerity gradually became apparent, and the betrothal gifts were also placed in the entire compound of the general's mansion. He chatted with Ning Sui, who was called a brother and brother, for a whole afternoon. It was not so much a chat as a coercion.

Liangzhou City King threatened him with an army of 20 in his hands. Although Ning Sui is now a general, he has not been on the battlefield for a long time due to physical reasons. If there is a real fight, he may not be able to withstand it.

So he agreed, although Zhao Xuanyi is not a good person, but the City Lord's Mansion is not stingy, and will not cut off her food and clothing.

Who knew that Ning Jinrou hadn't been seen in the past few days.

"Sister, it's time to eat." Sang Ning cooked a lot of delicious meals, all of which were very suitable for Ning Jinrou's appetite, and also prepared appetizing hawthorn tea.

Ning Jinrou got up, walked to the table and sat down to eat.

When Ning Jinsi returned to the Nuan Pavilion, Mingyue came up to meet her: "Miss, the small kitchen has prepared meals, wash your hands and eat."

"I don't want to eat, I'm full from my second sister's just now." Ning Jinsi took off her cloak and hung it on Mushi, walked to the dressing table, Mingyue stood behind her and helped her undo her bun.

"Would Second Miss really do this?"

Ning Jinsi looked at the Linghua mirror, picked up a hibiscus flower, groped it and looked at it: "Yes, if she doesn't do this, then she will inevitably marry and go to Liangzhou. Five, if she does what I want, then she can go back to the General's Mansion and continue to be her Second Miss, after weighing the pros and cons, Second Sister will know what to do."
