Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 15
Except for the Yang family, there are two real power holders in the Zheng residence.

One is Zheng Anyan, Jingning's father, and the other is her grandmother, Fengshi.

I remember that before Zheng Xiuning entered the mansion, the old lady loved her very much. Although Zheng Anyan was unwilling to continue to have children because of her mother, Jingning was always the only lady in the Zheng mansion. Until Zheng Xiuning came later, she Under Zheng Xiuning's guidance, he did many impulsive wrong things, which finally caused the old lady to hate her more and more.

Zheng Xiuning couldn't believe it.

In the past, whenever she encountered such occasions, as long as she provoked her appropriately, she could remind her grandmother of the good things Jing Ning had done in the past few years, and she was furious because of this. Why did she make such an understatement this time?
Jing Ning carefully helped the old lady down, seeing Zheng Xiuning's resentful gaze from the corner of her eye.

She lowered her head and smiled calmly.

Zheng Xiuning is really good at disguising and coaxing people, otherwise he would not have suffered a complete defeat in his previous life, but unfortunately there are some things that cannot be changed by just pretending and coaxing.

Such as identity.

She is the only daughter of the Zheng family. Although the old lady likes Zheng Xiuning, she is revealing a message to Jingning both inside and outside of her words——

She didn't want Jingning to get into trouble because of Zheng Xiuning.

When the old lady got out of the car, Jing Ning happily took Zheng Xiuning's hand: "Xiu Ning, I miss you so much these days, I was so bored while you were away, now you are back. "

Zheng Xiuning was bored in his heart, but his face was equally happy: "Xiu Ning also misses my sister very much."

miss me?

Are you thinking about how to tear me down?

Jing Ning had a smile on his face, but his heart was extremely cold.

She had to admire Zheng Xiuning's disguise. If she hadn't seen Zheng Xiuning's true face in her previous life, she might still be deceived by it in this life.

The two walked into Zheng's mansion while chatting and laughing.

Zheng's Mansion is a veritable scholarly family. The design of the mansion is elegant, with long willow trees hanging down and petals floating on the pond.

Right here, Jing Ning stopped, pointed to the center of the pond and shouted: "Xiu Ning, look quickly, there are a pair of mandarin ducks over there!"

You idiot, it's just a bunch of mandarin ducks, what's there to see?

She sneered in her heart, but she had to pretend to be surprised, and looked along Jing Ning's fingers.

Jing Ning leaned forward, almost half of his body went over the railing, and the hands of the two were tightly clasped.

"Sister, you are talking about mandarin ducks."

Where is it?

Before the words could be spoken, the railing in front of him suddenly broke, and immediately after, Jing Ning, who was still in front of him, fell down.

With a "splash", a large splash of water was stirred up and splashed onto Zheng Xiuning's skirt.

Zheng Xiuning subconsciously wanted to shout, but suddenly his eyes shrank, and instead of calling for help, he just stood on the shore and stared straight at the hands flopping on the water.

The movement on the water surface became smaller and smaller, and the red figure gradually sank.

She let out a breath, a smile forming on the corner of her mouth.

Jing Ning, it's not that I hurt you.

You are unlucky yourself, no wonder I am.

She looked around and made sure no one was paying attention, then lifted her skirt and left in a panic.

Behind the shade of the tree, the old lady looked at Zheng Xiuning's back with cold eyes, turned her head to the woman beside her and said, "Go and rescue the eldest lady."

The other party quickly jumped into the water, sank to the bottom of the lake, and fished out Jingning from the water.

"Old madam, why didn't you save the eldest lady just now?"

"Always tell her to see clearly the viciousness of the people around her. It's okay if she's sober, but if she continues to be stupid."

The old lady said coldly: "Such a stupid person, will he cause trouble for my Zheng family if he lives?"

Liuyue Pavilion.

Zheng Anyan took the tea from Mrs. Yang, looked at her little daughter who had not seen her for many months, and finally showed a smile on her face.

However, this smile only lasted for a moment, and the next moment it was smashed by the servants rushing in in a panic——

"My lord, it's not good, the eldest lady has fallen into the water!"

"Whoa-"

With a crisp sound, Yang's painstakingly brewed tea fell to the ground, and the delicate porcelain shattered into pieces.

Before he could react, Zheng Anyan's figure had already disappeared in front of him.

Yang stood up with surprise in his eyes, did Zheng Jingning fall into the water?

Zheng Xiuning lowered his head to hide the strangeness in his eyes, then supported Yang's hand, and said softly: "Mother, since something happened to my sister, let's go and have a look."

Yang nodded, with a worried expression, "That's right, we should go and see."

Go see if Zheng Jingning is dead.

The two looked at each other, the meaning in their eyes was self-evident.

When Zheng Anyan rushed over, Jing Ning was still in a coma.

He immediately asked people to invite well-known doctors in the capital, dozens of people came and went, but these doctors came and went, and none of them could tell what was going on.

In the end, Zheng Anyan got angry and swept all the porcelain on the table to the ground.

"Trash, it's all trash! It's just a fall into the water. Why are you making it look like you have a terminal illness? I tell you, if you can't save my daughter, I will smash your signboard tomorrow." Already!"

Born into a scholarly family and well-bred, Zheng Anyan couldn't say harsh words, but his threats were enough to show that this high-ranking official was on the verge of fury.

In front of the bed, an old doctor with gray hair was pinching Jing Ning's pulse, his brows were furrowed.

The next moment, he stood up, saluted Zheng Anyan with a solemn expression.

"Master Zheng, if my guess is correct, Lingqianjin was not unconscious because she fell into the water, but because she was poisoned."

"Poisoned?"

Outside the door, Yang Shi who rushed to hear the news screamed, and then rushed over, "How could someone poison Jingning? Master, you must thoroughly investigate this matter!"

She looked at the unconscious Jing Ning in panic, but there was a flash of joy in her heart.

She originally planned to hold Zheng Jingning in her palm after Zheng Anyan left, but she never expected that someone would help her and directly poison Zheng Jingning.

Zheng Xiuning's originally suspended heart was also relieved.

She was still worrying about what to do if Jing Ning didn't die, but instead exposed her unwillingness to save her, but she didn't expect that the other party would be so unlucky and poisoned.

Zheng Anyan's complexion completely changed.

But he quickly calmed down, his eyes were slightly cold, and he gradually scanned Yang Shi and Zheng Xiuning: "Jingning was shocked when he fell into the water, and he needs to cultivate at this time, you all go down first."

Yang wiped away tears, "Yes."

Knowing that Jing Ning was poisoned and might die, Zheng Xiuning was ecstatic in his heart, but he didn't dare to show the slightest bit on his face, he only helped his mother up with worry, and walked out of the room slowly.

Zheng Anyan then turned his head and bowed respectfully to the old doctor, "Please tell me clearly, what kind of poison is my son? Is there a way to detoxify it?"

He spoke urgently, for fear of getting an unfavorable answer from the other party.

However, the old doctor did not answer this question, but asked: "Master Zheng, I don't know who dyed the spices you used today?"
