The genius pyrographer of the reborn daughter

Chapter 39 A Sudden Turnaround

"Duke Deng's mansion has a major incident—"

Before Ning Wanzhu woke up from the dream, she heard someone yell out of nowhere, and then she remembered who Geng Cong was.

In the previous life, the Geng family of Duke Deng's mansion and Cao Yue'e's husband's family happened to be related by marriage, so Ning Wanzhu heard about some things about Duke Deng's mansion from Cao Yue'e.

This Geng Cong was originally a descendant of the Geng family of Duke Deng's mansion. Because Duke Deng had no heirs, and Geng Cong joined the army since he was a child, and his military achievements were outstanding at a young age. Therefore, he was selected by the old Duke and his wife to be the heir of the Duke, and he will inherit the title in the future. of.But he didn't know why this Geng Cong disobeyed his heir father and mother, and was sued by the old Duke's wife to Dali Temple, where he usurped the position of heir.

However, if it was only because of "disobedience and unfilial piety", Geng Cong's "bad reputation" would not have spread all over the capital.It is said that just after Geng Cong was taken away as heir, this man actually set fire to Duke Deng's mansion and washed the whole mansion with blood.The old man was stabbed more than [-] times and died, while the old lady was forced to hang herself.As soon as the murder case came out, the capital was shaken, but this person escaped safely while being hunted by the whole city, and became a bandit in the Funiu Mountain.Since the birth of Geng Cong, the bandits in Funiu Mountain are no longer ordinary bandits who occupy the mountain as kings and make small troubles, but like an army, they have become a serious problem near the important places in the capital.

According to this, at this moment, it should be when Geng Cong was still in the army and had not yet become the heir of Deng Guogong.

Ning Wanzhu broke out in cold sweat thinking about it for a moment, and turned over and got out of bed.Mo Lan and Mo Mei were just bringing in water. Seeing Ning Wanzhu's distraught appearance, Mo Mei hurried to help her up, "Second Miss, what's wrong with you?"

"Grandpa Du, how is he now?" Ning Wanzhu asked tremblingly.This Geng Cong could disobey his heirs, his heirs, his mother, and kill people, what cruel things could he not do?Ning Wanzhu was very worried about Old Man Du, wondering what happened to him after Geng Cong's men dragged him to treat him.

Mo Mei persuaded: "Miss, you have been in a coma for two days and two nights, drink some rice soup first, and then it's not too late to make plans!"

Ning Wanzhu felt nervous, if she didn't know the real news about Old Man Du, how could she be in the mood to eat.But she fell into a coma for two days and two nights. At this time, her hands and feet were limp, dizzy, and she forced herself to get out of bed, staggered and almost fell.Mo Mei came over with a face full of blame, helped her up, and put her on the couch.

"Miss, you'd better be obedient. After eating, I'll help you change your clothes and go to the front hall to meet Old Man Du, okay?" An adult man with martial arts skills, but it is more than enough to deal with Ning Wanzhu.

After hearing this, Ning Wanzhu immediately knew that Old Man Du was fine, so she felt a little relieved.

Afterwards, people in Ning's Zhuangzi heard about Ning Wan and Zhu Xingzhuan, and they came to visit one after another.First Nanny Ye, Mrs. Du, and later Ning Wanzhu got better, so they forced themselves to go to the outer courtyard on Zhuangzi.In addition to Ning Yongqiang, Old Man Du and others, even the head of Du's Village and several elders in the village came.

Only then did Ning Wanzhu know that when Geng Cong and the others retreated, they had left a sentence saying that if Miss Ning hadn't understood the righteousness and protected the whole village, Du's Village would not know what would have happened.Therefore, although the villagers of Du's Village didn't know exactly what happened in Ning's village that night, most of them were grateful to Ning Wanzhu.

Ning Wanzhu thought about it carefully, and discussed it with Madam Ye, but she still couldn't be such a good person.She invited Nanny Ye and Mrs. Du to come forward and negotiate with the village chief and others of Du's Village, asking not to spread the matter.Everyone in Du's Village knew that Ning Wanzhu was a young lady who hadn't left the court, and such a reputation was for nothing, and she might even be gossiped about.Immediately, the village head agreed, and promised Ye Momo and Du's family to restrain the people in Du's village, and never talk about it again.

Old man Du also happily came to see Ning Wanzhu and showed her the wound on his arm.Ning Wanzhu saw that the wound on Du's hand had been re-bandaged, and that Du's arm could move up and down freely, and his wrist could move, which was much better than before.

He said with a smile: "Those military masters are very kind to the old man. They cut off the old man's wrong tendons and reconnected them. However, the military doctor's methods are very clever, and the old man doesn't feel any pain. After sleeping, the tendons of his hands are gone. It has been connected. You see, in the past two days, I have become much more flexible than before." He then asked whether Ning Wanzhu helped those military masters make any pyrography works that day.But how could Ning Wanzhu dare to say what she had burned on people, so she just evaded a few words casually.

It's just that Ning Wanzhu found that the embroidered handkerchief she was carrying with her that day was missing, and Mo Mei and Mo Lan searched repeatedly in the front yard of Zhuangzi for half a day, but they couldn't find it.Ning Wanzhu felt bad, maybe this embroidered handkerchief was taken away by Geng Cong or Geng Cong's subordinates.She recalled intently, remembering that the embroidered handkerchief was still in her sleeve until she was knocked out by that Geng Cong.

——Could it be taken by that boy Geng Cong?

Ning Wanzhu wished she could pray in front of the Buddha immediately, hoping that she would never meet Geng Cong again in this life.

But Mo Lan secretly came to tell Ning Wanzhu that it was the second day when Geng's army left Zhuangzi, Qiu Yu found an excuse and went back to the Ning's compound in Nanyang, stayed at Ning's house for one night, and returned to Zhuangzi the next day up.Ning Wanzhu frowned and thought to herself, it's hard to guard against family thieves, but I still can't guard against Aunt Shao, I'm afraid that in the future, what happened in Zhuangzi will spread to Nanyang City, and there will be another version.

She was ready to be splashed with dirty water again, but she didn't expect it to be calm for more than ten days in a row. Whether it was on the Zhuangzi or the Ningfu in the city, it seemed that no one knew what happened on the Zhuangzi.

Half a month later, news came out from the Nanyang Ning Mansion that Ning Xiaozu, the old man of the Ning family, had suffered a stroke. After waking up, he could neither speak nor move.The entire Ning family panicked, and sent letters of emergency to Ning Qi who was practicing Taoism in the mountains, Ning Yu who was in Beijing, and Ning Qi who was in the Northwest Army.

Ning Wanzhu's uncle, Ning Ying, sent someone home with a letter, saying that it is not appropriate for outsiders to interfere with lay people's affairs.When the letter arrived in the hands of Old Madam Ning, she almost made her nose crooked.But Ning Ying's wife, Wang Shi, read the letter and cried so much that she almost passed out.

Ning Qi, who was in the Northwest Army, was not able to rush back to Nanyang so soon because of military affairs.

Therefore, the whole Ning family can only pin their hopes on Ning Yu, the second master of the Ning family.

Ning Yu didn't live up to expectations, and rushed back from the capital alone, but saw Chun Wei who had no chance to catch up with this subject.When old lady Ning saw him, she burst into tears and blamed herself.However, Yan Shi was calmly at the side, secretly blaming her husband for missing the opportunity of the pilot test.

After Ning Yu came back, Mr. Ning's situation did not improve at all.Seeing that the situation was not good, the Ning family sent a letter to Ning Jin, the aunt of the Ning family who married out of town, and summoned Aunt Shao, Ning Wanzhu and others who lived in Zhuangzi back together.

However, in Ning Wanzhu's memory, Mr. Ning had never contracted such a serious illness in his previous life.

In the previous life, Mr. Ning passed away suddenly two years later, when Ning Wanzhu was 12 years old, due to phlegm surges, without any warning in advance.In the previous life, his father, Ning Yu, participated in this subject Chunwei, but he lost his name to Sun Shan, and he didn't even get a fellow Jinshi, so he returned to Nanyang City in despair.Mr. Ning didn't say anything, but began to instruct Ning Yu to take care of the family affairs. It seemed that he was completely disappointed in Ning Yu's official career, and he just hoped that his son would stay at home and be a farmer.

However, in this life, Ning Yu voluntarily gave up this subject because he wanted to serve Mr. Ning's illness. Not only was Mrs. Ning very grateful to him, but every time Mr. Ning woke up, he looked at Ning Yu with a smile on his face. with guilt.

In fact, the result is the same, the same is that Chun Wei is not the first, in this life, Ning Yu just because of the word "filial piety", but it makes people look different.

Ning Wanzhu was accompanied by Nanny Ye back to Nanyang.She was reborn for nearly four years, and the days she spent in this mansion can be counted on her fingers.

She returned to the small courtyard where she "woke up" at the beginning, and watched Mo Mei bring the servants from other houses together to pack up her usual books, pens and ink, and daily utensils, and put them away one by one, with a vague feeling in her heart Yue has a premonition, thinking that this time he will be staying in Nanyang City for a long time.

Ning Wanzhu was thinking about it when she heard a commotion in the yard outside.

Before Ning Wanzhu could react, Mo Lan, who was in charge of "inquiry", had already slipped out of the yard to inquire.After a while, Mo Lan came back and said to Ning Wanzhu: "I heard that the old lady gave two big maids to serve the second master. Those two maids took Qiao in front of the second lady, and they were against the second lady!"

What?My grandma gave two servant girls to serve my own father?Ning Wanzhu found it incredible.My own father already has one wife and one concubine, two sons and two daughters, and his stepwife Yan Shi gave birth to a pair of sons, so he can be regarded as a meritorious person.Why did the old lady put a waiter next to her father again?

Seeing that Ning Wanzhu was stunned, Mo Lan hurriedly lowered her voice, and said, "During this period, the second lady has been hosting the show, and the old lady...seems very dissatisfied."

Ning Wanzhu suddenly realized that this kind of discord between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law also happened in her own family.In her previous life, she had always followed behind her stepmother Yan Shi, and she would do what Yan Shi said.Fortunately, the Yan family came from a big family in Nanyang, and he had a good face, so he couldn't bear the reputation of treating his stepdaughter harshly. Ning Wanzhu never really got close to the Yan family, but he never suffered under Yan's hands.

But unexpectedly, Ning Wanzhu, after working as Mrs. Hou for a few years and becoming familiar with these methods of fighting in the inner house, was reborn as a child, only then did she realize that in her own family, her stepmother Yan was also fighting with the old lady Wu. That's great.
