33. Goodbye Ouyang Ling
After the New Year, before the spring, Ning Yu gave birth to a big fat boy, but the Xu family and the Duchess of Anguo were happy, the full moon banquet happened to be not long in spring, this day Xu went to the Anguo Mansion very early, as for the Da Qin family, the year ago he claimed that he was sick in bed and did not go out to move around, and today is of course no exception.
Because he went with the Xu family, it was quite early to arrive at the Anguo Mansion, Ning Xi originally wanted to go to see Ning Yu first, but learned that the old lady of the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion had also arrived.
Shu's mother was young and widowed, and since then, Xu has rarely gone out to socialize because of her widowhood, and she basically does not attend this kind of festive day, so as not to make the host's family feel unlucky, but this time she came over so early, Xu guessed the purpose of Shu's mother, so he first brought Ning Xi over to visit, and let Ning Miao and others go to Ning Yu's room.
Ning Xi doesn't have much affection for Shu's mother, in her memory, Shu's mother is a cold character, she is indifferent to everyone, and she doesn't even have too much smile for Shu Heng, after she married to the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion, Shu's mother didn't take long to exempt her from morning and dusk, and only let her go to her side to ask for peace on the fifteenth day of the new year, so the two didn't have much time to meet.
However, although Shu's mother is lukewarm to her, she is not a bad mother-in-law, at least Shu's mother has never felt sorry for her, and even handed over the feed to her soon after she married into the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion, to say that her only dissatisfaction with this mother-in-law is that Shu's mother is too good to Ouyang Ling, obviously a cold character, but she is very caring for Ouyang Ling, and sometimes she even thinks that Ouyang Ling is actually Shu's mother's biological daughter.
Ning Xi followed behind Xu and came to Shu's mother, a pair of eyes secretly looked at Shu's mother, Shu's mother at this time was much younger than the last time she saw her in her last life, and the similarity with Shu Heng could still be seen between the corners of her eyes, and Shu's mother did not wear the usual plain clothes today, but wore a purple skirt. As for Ouyang Ling next to Shu's mother, Ning Xi selectively ignored it.
When Shu's mother saw Xu and Ning Xi, her eyes flashed, but her face still maintained her usual cold look, and after saying a few words to Ning Xi, she took out a bracelet and gave it to Ning Xi, and then went to the guest room to rest under the pretext of being unwell.
Ning Xi was a little confused, didn't she come to see her, her future daughter-in-law? Just casually say a few words and leave, is it really okay? Will you take your son's marriage too seriously?
After Ning Xi saw Shu's mother leave, he carefully checked the bracelet in his hand, he didn't know if he didn't see it, he was startled when he saw it, Ning Xi's eyes widened, isn't this a bracelet that is only passed on to his daughter-in-law by the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion, will Shu's mother be too generous, but he got this bracelet after marrying into the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion in his last life.
Ning Xi put the bracelet away, and did not tell the Xu family the meaning of the bracelet.
When she walked into Ning Yan's room, she saw Ning Miao sitting next to Ning Yan and talking to her, while Ning Yan was lying next to the little baby, staring straight at her, as if she was very curious. It's just that I was a little surprised that I didn't see Xiao Qin and Ning Qiao.
Seeing Xu and Ning Xi coming in, Ning Yu was about to get up, but was glanced at by Xu: "I am your mother, what is there to see." β
As he spoke, he sat down next to Ning Yu and carefully asked about Ning Yan's physical condition. Ning Xi saw that Ning Miao and Xu were all around Ning Yu, so she didn't go over, but walked next to the little baby, wanting to see the little baby. Seeing Ning Xi coming over, Ning Yan buried his head in a panic, stepped aside, and gave Ning Xi a place. Ning Xi raised her eyebrows, after that hijacking incident, Ning Yan seemed to be a lot more well-behaved, and now she hides when she sees her, but without Ning Yan's nonsense, Ning Xi feels that her life is more comfortable.
The baby's nickname is Tangyuan, I heard that Ning Yu suddenly wanted to eat Tangyuan before he gave birth, but before he ate a few, his stomach hurt, and then the baby was born, Ning Yu simply gave him the nickname Tangyuan, because it was just a nickname, Duke An Guo and Duchess An Guo had no opinion, as for Xu Yifan, although he didn't want to give his son such a strange nickname, but how dare he offend Ning Yu now, so he had to silently tell his son that your father did his best. However, Xu Shi is not so easy to speak, and until now Ning Xi remembers the way the corners of Xu's mouth twitched when he first heard his grandson's nickname.
However, the tangyuan is still young now, and can only eat and sleep, Ning Xi lost interest after looking at it twice, so he sat on the side and fugued, fortunately, Xu stayed for a while and left, Ning Xi immediately ran to Ning Yan's side, while Ning Yan continued to sit next to the tangyuan.
Seeing Ning Xi sitting over, Ning Yu teased on a whim: "Yo, I'm done seeing my future mother-in-law." β
Ning Xi glared at her, yes, the share that made fun of Ning Yu back then is now retribution.
"Why didn't you see the third aunt and Ning Qiao?" Ning Xi asked softly.
Ning Yu shrugged her shoulders: "Come over and stay for a while and leave with the fourth sister, who knows what's going on?" β
"There are many guests today, and the third aunt may want to take Ning Qiao to see the world." Ning Miao glanced at Ning Yan, who was guarding the rice balls, and said lightly.
Hearing this, Ning Xi frowned, Xiao Qin's family is not a good mother-in-law, for Ning Qiao's cunning, Xiao Qin's family has always adhered to the three principles of not raising, not teaching, and not caring, and now she is so kind to take Ning Qiao out to see the world?
Ning Xi looked at Ning Miao with inquiring eyes, and Ning Miao shook her head: "The fourth sister is also thirteen, and she is not young." β
Ning Qiao's birthday is on the New Year's Day, here has just passed the thirteenth birthday, Ning Xi is dumbfounded, isn't it, this Ning Qin's marriage was only decided a year ago, and he only got married in the summer this year, this new daughter-in-law has not yet entered the door, Xiao Qin's family is in a hurry to find Ning Qiao's mother-in-law, Ning Qiao is only thirteen, Xiao Qin's family is too anxious, Ning Xi can't understand Xiao Qin's thoughts.
Ning Miao spread her hands, she didn't understand Xiao Qin's thoughts.
The three of them talked for a while, and Yang Linglong came over, and after saying hello to Ning Yu, Ning Yu asked Ning Xi to accompany Yang Linglong to walk around the garden, and she would be good to have Ning Miao with her. Yang Linglong didn't shirk it, and pulled Ning Xi out.
"Why, you don't think you're in high spirits." Ning Xi asked as he walked.
Yang Linglong sighed: "It's not for my marriage, my mother has tossed me miserably during this time." β
Ning Xi bowed his head, Yang Linglong and Ning Miao are similar in age, this Ning Miao's marriage has already been decided, but Yang Linglong's marriage has not yet been decided, do you think the third princess can not be in a hurry?
However, the third princess and Yang Linglong both have high vision, and they have searched the entire capital and have not found a satisfactory one, Yang Linglong is not in a hurry, but the third princess is in a hurry, so she thinks of tossing in the mansion and tiring Yang Linglong enough.
Ning Xi thought about it, who Yang Linglong married in the last life, she didn't have any impression, but looking at Yang Linglong's deflated appearance, Ning Xi still pursed her lips and smiled unkindly.
Seeing this, Yang Linglong gently pinched Ning Xi's waist: "You just gloat." Then he turned his head and asked, "Isn't Yu Mengxian doing things with your fiancΓ© now, when will they come back?" β
Ning Xi touched his chin with his right hand and looked at Yang Linglong a little playfully: "Our Miss Yang is quite concerned about Yu Mengxian." β
"Cut." Yang Linglong turned her head disdainfully, "Who cares about him, it's just that since Yu's face happened, Yu Mengxian's stupid boy saw me with eyes that were not eyes, and his nose was not nose, as if I owed him a lot of money, so is Yu a good one?" This girl was kind enough to help him get rid of his difficult aunt, and he dared to show face to me! After saying that, he kicked the stone under his feet in a huff.
Ning Xi covered her mouth and laughed, and Yang Linglong, who was angry, looked a lot more lively.
"Okay, you say he's a stupid boy, what do you have to do with him?" Ning Xi laughed and hurriedly reassured, otherwise she was afraid that Yang Linglong would kick her shoes.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a woman walking in front of him, and Ning Xi's face sank at that moment.
Seeing this, Yang Linglong frowned, and her eyes couldn't help but be a little more probing about the visitor.
"My aunt was not in good health this morning, and I was in a hurry to take care of my aunt, so I didn't have time to say hello to Sister Ning, but now that my aunt is in better health, Ling'er came over to ask Sister Ning for her guilt."
Ning Xi sneered at the corner of her mouth, looking at Ouyang Ling's pretended posture, she obviously hated her very much but had to please her, and now Ouyang Ling was afraid that she hated her very much. There are also people who keep saying that they take care of Shu's mother, what do you mean, come to show her how good your relationship with Shu's mother is, no matter how good the relationship is, you Ouyang Ling is just an outsider!
"Miss Ouyang doesn't have to be polite, your sister Pingle can't afford it, it's better for you to call me the county lord." Ouyang Ling's sister she was tired of hearing in her previous life, and she didn't want to hear these two words from her mouth again in this life.
Ouyang Ling's face was a little embarrassed, she raised her head and looked at Ning Xi, she seemed to be a little overwhelmed, that weak and helpless appearance made Ning Xi as a woman couldn't help but want to step forward to comfort her, of course, she would not do it unless Ning Xi's brain was pumped.
"I don't know Miss Ouyang well, it doesn't matter if I say hello or not, Miss Ouyang doesn't need to come to me to ask for guilt."
Hearing this, Ouyang Ling looked at Yang Linglong and wanted to ask Yang Linglong for help, her bright eyes were watery, and it seemed that tears were dripping down the next moment, but Yang Linglong didn't look at her at all, and played with the stones under her feet with peace of mind.
Ouyang Ling buried her head, covered the resentment in her eyes, and said with some grievance: "I thought that the county lord was about to marry my cousin, and it stands to reason that I should also call the county lord a sister, so I took the liberty to speak, but I didn't want to anger the county lord, it was Ling'er who was reckless, and I ask the county lord to forgive me." β
Ning Xi snorted coldly, she couldn't look down on Ouyang Ling's face the most, as if someone had wronged her greatly, and she was accusing her of being ignorant as the county lord in and out of her words, but so what, it was difficult for her to be a dignified county lord and to please Ouyang Ling, the young lady.
"I have a marriage contract with the Marquis of Zhongyi, but what does this have to do with you, forgive me for talking too much, Miss Biao is always just an outsider who lives in the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyi, and she will marry out one day, so it's good to interfere less in everything."
After Ning Xi finished speaking, he saw Ouyang Ling's face turn blue, and he pulled Yang Linglong away with satisfaction.
After walking away, Yang Linglong asked: "You are not afraid that she will say bad things about you in front of Shu Heng's mother, this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have a bad relationship, but you will suffer." β
Ning Xi pursed her lips, can Ouyang Ling treat her with that little thought? No matter how she treats Ouyang Ling, Ouyang Ling will not say good things about her in front of Shu's mother, besides, she doesn't even treat Shu Heng very well now, how can she treat Ouyang Ling.
"However, I always feel that this Ouyang Ling looks very similar to a person, but I can't remember who that person is for a while." Yang Linglong added with some distress.
Ning Xi didn't care much when he heard it: "Probably an unimportant person." β
Yang Linglong nodded, and then left this matter behind.
