Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 173 Conspiracy
Jing Ning got up early today.Zheng Anyan's birthday is coming soon, after all, he is the backbone of the family, and this is also a big event after the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet.

Early in the morning, Jing Ning hurried to pay his respects to the old lady, intending to spare time to think about the gift.Prepare in advance, it is better to have a defense in advance.

Ever since Jing Ning found out that Zheng Xiuning and Li Ziyue were fighting, she was in a particularly good mood, even sleeping comfortably.Probably it is really possible to live a peaceful life for a few days.

For a moment, Jing Ning was very grateful that Li Ziyue lived in the prime minister's mansion, fortunately to have her.

The mansion is sending out invitations, after all, it is the prime minister's birthday, so naturally it has to be a big deal.Jing Ning looked at the neatly packaged invitation card, and casually asked, "Are you sending it to General Xiao's mansion?"

After asking, she was stunned, smiled and shook her head. "Miss, don't worry, everything has been sent!" The young man replied to Jing Ning with a smile, and loaded the invitations into the carriage, "It must be indispensable!"

Jing Ning watched the back of the young man waving at him as he got into the carriage and hit the horse, his heart warmed, and he waved along, "Be careful on the road!"

This is what a home looks like.Thinking of this, she felt elated.

When Jing Ning arrived at the old lady's place, Li Ziyue happened to be there too.Chattering something in the old lady's ear, the old lady listened and smiled very happily.

Jing Ning was wondering, and looked at Li Ziyue full of searching.Li Ziyue directly ignored Jing Ning's gaze, and was still talking to the old lady with a smile on her face.

Seeing the old lady smiling so happily, Jing Ning could probably guess what Li Ziyue was talking about.It must be the things that Zheng Xiuning asked her to help with painting. Although the old lady is smiling so happily now, it may not be so sure in the future.

If you want to take advantage of Zheng Xiuning, you really should have a good brain.

Zheng Xiuning's advantage is not so easy to take advantage of.

Jing Ning had to rethink Li Ziyue's IQ, curled her lips, she was really clueless.

When she came out of the old lady's room, she saw Li Ziyue walking past her arrogantly with her chest up, and she still didn't forget to greet her.

"Sister Jingning, are you prepared for uncle's birthday?"

really.Jing Ning narrowed her eyes and laughed, "My sister is worried, I wonder if my sister has any good gifts?" Li Ziyue didn't answer Jing Ning, but walked past with a charming smile, and Jing Ning also smiled politely.

"Miss, I think she is here to annoy you on purpose." Wen Xing was on the side, arguing for Jing Ning.Jing Ning shook her head, "She was only complacent for a few days, with Zheng Xiuning's temper, can she take advantage of it?"

Jing Ning said so, and it really came true in the end.

On the night of Zheng Anyan's birthday banquet, Zheng Xiuning was also released, and she sat obediently in her seat, not as arrogant as before.As if waiting for a good show, she smiled and looked in the direction of the old lady and Zheng Anyan.

The birthday banquet held by the prime minister's mansion was naturally full of bureaucrats.This is not only a good opportunity for them to cling to the prime minister, but also a great opportunity for mutual communication.They all prepared gifts early and were ready to go up to greet each other at any time, but they were all blocked out of the door.

What happened to the prime minister's mansion?
In the old lady's main room, Li Ziyue and her maid were huddled on the ground. Li Ziyue was so frightened that she trembled all over, her face was pale, her lip makeup was bitten off, and she dared not say a word.

Jing Ning also just heard the news of the old lady's anger, so she hurried over and happened to see this scene.

It's really shooting yourself in the foot.

Jing Ning really doesn't want to step into this house now, she also wants to be like Zheng Xiuning, just sit aside and watch the show obediently, but who made her a prostitute?

She rushed to the old lady's side in a hurry, supported the old lady's arm that was shaking because of anger, tilted her head to look at Zheng Anyan, and saw that he also had an angry face.

"Father..." Jing Ning called out in a low voice, but Zheng Anyan ignored him and loudly reprimanded Li Ziyue who was kneeling on the ground.

Jing Ning comforted the old lady a few times, then consciously stood aside, listening to the movements of the old lady on the other side, and listening to Wen Xing chattering with herself on the other side.

"I heard that Ms. Li is going to draw a pair of cranes and Suoyun together with our second lady to give to the master," Wen Xing said, looking up at Li Ziyue who was kneeling in the middle, "but this Ms. Li He is not proficient in calligraphy and painting."

As soon as this sentence reached Jing Ning's ears, Jing Ning unconsciously admired Li Ziyue's stupidity, she dared to answer even if she couldn't draw?
Wen Xing saw that his young lady looked very excited, so he continued, "Miss Li asked her girl to find someone to paint for her, but how good can the paintings drawn by people outside be? "

"What did that person paint this?" Jing Ning asked in a low voice, but the corners of his mouth still twitched unconsciously.

"It's hard to say," Wen Xing said with a mysterious smile on his face, "A good look on the crane Suoyun made that man a wild duck flying in the sky!" After saying this, Jing Ning almost burst out laughing up.

It seemed that Li Ziyue would find it difficult to escape today.

Either admit that he is not proficient in calligraphy and painting at all, and confess the person who painted for him, or take the blame himself.But this crime of disrespect to his father, tsk tsk, is really a dilemma.

This Zheng Xiuning's brain is not elm, and it can be understood by knocking.

Jing Ning suddenly became a little worried about her future, if Zheng Xiuning played tricks on her, would she be able to handle it?Wen Xing seemed to feel his own lady's worry, and looked at Jing Ning worriedly.

Being a young lady is really not as easy as being girls like them. If you take one step by step, if you accidentally make a wrong step, your life may be over.

Jing Ning cautiously moved to the old lady's side, and comforted her softly, "Grandmother calm down, it won't be good if you get angry."

The old lady snorted and looked at Li Ziyue with an even more dissatisfied expression. "Yeah, after all, it's my sister's wish..." It wasn't Jing Ning who spoke, but Zheng Xiuning.

When Jing Ning heard this, she felt happy.Li Ziyue should never have provoked Zheng Xiuning, this is good, Zheng Xiuning's words raised the old lady's anger to another level.

The old lady slammed down the Buddhist bead in her hand and hit Li Ziyue's face, leaving a red mark.Li Ziyue endured the pain on her face, not daring to make a sound.

The string of Buddhist beads rumbled apart and rolled down into the hall.

"It's really something that doesn't know what to do!" The old lady pointed at Li Ziyue's hand that kept shaking. Seeing this, Jing Ning hurriedly helped her to put her on her back, and said some kind words to comfort her.

Li Ziyue gritted her teeth and looked at Zheng Xiuning, Zheng Xiuning also gave her a smug smile.

This is the prime minister's mansion, how could it accommodate you, a wild man surnamed Li?

Li Ziyue was trembling with anger, and her face was in pain. She gritted her teeth and kowtowed on the ground, "Grandma! Yue'er really doesn't mean it!"

Not intentional?The old lady raised her eyebrows, "Did you do it on purpose?"
