With Cui's mother, Ning Yun can be regarded as having a strong and reliable arm in the Shi family.

In addition to Cui's mother, Shi Lingfeng also brought someone to lead a few boys to Ning Yun. Ning Yun asked a few questions, and asked Cui's mother's opinion, and finally chose one that seemed more clever and smart, and another one who was honest and steady. They are all about ten years old, which is the age of learning, so that even if they look away, they will be able to adjust their temperament in the future and turn around in a better direction. The clever one is named Ling Tong, and the steady one is named Ling Zhi, which just expresses Ning Yun's expectations for them: one must be clever and flexible, and the other must be stable and upright. Mutual restraint is the only way to get things done.

As for the daughter-in-law outside the courtyard, after Ning Yun saw the one that Bai Xiaochu had left behind, she decided not to change it for the time being. The man's surname was Li, the son of the original Bai family. People look quite honest, and they are also neat in their work, not a bully. And she has been in charge of all these years, and she knows all kinds of miscellaneous things well, and she is easy to make trouble when she suddenly replaces, and she will observe for a period of time before speaking.

Everyone has been settled, and Ning Yun's mind has been saved a lot. There is Cui's mother in the yard to help keep an eye on her, she is very relieved, she is busy fighting her aunt and telling her son about her daughter-in-law in the upper room, and she is already too busy to open the glue, so she can't care about finding Ning Yun unhappy for the time being. Ning Yun's life became more and more comfortable and comfortable.

With a lot of free time, she put her mind to painting.

The place of painting and the pen and ink, the jade hairpin and the moon are both ready. There is still one thing left to complete. Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, and this east wind has to blow from Ningfu.

On that day, the Shi family arranged flowers for the banquet, but unfortunately no one from the Ning family came. Later, I asked Caiyue to inquire, and said that the young lady of the Ning family was sick and had been sick for several days.

That Ning family, Ning Yun didn't want to go back, if she wanted to meet Bai Xiaochu, she had to invite her to the next post. It's just that I don't know if she avoids herself? I'm still looking forward to seeing it.

Ning Yun wrote the post to Caiyue and asked her to send it over. Caiyue hesitated for a while and asked, "Why didn't the young grandmother go to Ning's house?" In the past, it was because Miss Biao wanted to enter the palace, and Aunt Ning didn't let her see people lightly. Now I guess it's not so strict. Moreover, she was already sick, and I heard that even the boudoir was not easy to come out, and after reading the post, I was afraid that even if I wanted to, I couldn't! ”

Ning Yun didn't say anything with a smile, she only asked her to send it, and didn't say much else.

No one knows the situation of the Ning family better than her. Bai Xiaochu is afraid that this time it is not really sick, but sad!

The post was only sent out for half a day, and Caiyue came to report in a panic, saying that Miss Ning Jiabiao had come in a carriage and had arrived at the door.

"You invite people in, and then take the maids to withdraw, leaving only you and Yuchai to guard the door, and no one is allowed to come in. I haven't seen her for a long time, and I want to talk for a while, and I'll wait for everything else. ”

The two of them, but it's time to talk about themselves!

Caiyue walked for a while, and someone opened the curtain and came in. Ning Yun looked up, and when she saw the face she was familiar with, she was a little dizzy for a while, as if she was in a dream.

Bai Xiaochu was too, he was stunned as soon as he entered the door.

It was Ning Yun who spoke first, just like the opening sentence in Xiangguo Temple: "I haven't seen you for a long time, how is my sister okay lately?" ”

Only then did Bai Xiaochu react, first turned around and sent everyone away, and then cautiously closed the door, and then stepped forward with tears in his eyes: "Sister, I'm ...... I thought you didn't want to see me! ”

These words really don't look like Bai Xiaochu's tone!

It stands to reason that Bai Xiaochu should be secretly happy. In the blink of an eye, she became the hot daughter of the Jin Guining family in Kyoto, which is a good thing that she can't dream of, and she herself was very excited at first. But within a few days of doing "Ning Yun", she couldn't be happy.

Therefore, as soon as she saw the post from the historian "Bai Xiaochu", she rushed to it non-stop. The idea of suppressing my sister first is gone, and now I only regard Ning Yun as my lifeline.

Unlike Bai Xiaochu's reaction, Ning Yun was much calmer. Sit and watch the tea...... The rules are not bad, just like in your own home. I made the real Bai Xiaochu uncomfortable.

Ning Yun curled the corners of her mouth and said, "Where is my sister, how could I not want to see you." Sit down and talk and sip hot tea. I didn't see my sister when I was enjoying the flowers that day, I thought it was my sister, you didn't want to see me. ”

Bai Xiaochu was embarrassed for a while, looking at his expression, as if he was embarrassed to take advantage. After a long time, he said, "I...... I'd like to come, but it's ...... I can't take care of myself, and I can't get out. ”

Ning Yun looked at her, now she was dressed as a golden and precious match, but the expression on her face was a little evasive, and the face that she was familiar with was now emaciated, and her eyes were also full of bloodshots. Even the tone of his voice now is not as vivid as it used to be. It seems that she is not doing well, probably like her former self, she has lost her temper by the rules of the Ning family.

"What's the difficulty with my sister? Let's hear it, if I can help, I will help. "What is the environment of the Ning family, what Ning Yun should do every day, no one knows better than her.

Bai Xiaochu's eyes were red, but he didn't hide it, and Ai Ai told the truth.

Since she woke up from Ning's house, her life has not been peaceful. First of all, the matter of entering the palace in the draft died abruptly, and Master Ning made a fire at home. Immediately afterwards, the attitude of the people in the house towards her also took a 180-degree turn. Led by the stepmother, the siblings are united in fire against her. In addition, she made a few mistakes at home and made a few ugliness in front of people, and now even Father Ning doesn't have a good face for her.

That's not all, Bai Xiaochu endured it in his heart, and it passed. But in the past half a month or so, if she just endures, she can't cope anymore.

It turned out that after Ning's father was depressed for a while, the "fighting spirit" of letting his daughter enter the palace was ignited again! He made up his mind to "not die until the heart of the Yellow River", while the new emperor was still young and the throne was still vacant, so he made every effort to let his daughter pass guò in this way to "shine the lintel". This year, I saw that it would not be done, but after this year, he avoided the bad omen, and next year he will blow the wind in the ears of the new emperor, and it must have been.

When the new emperor was still the crown prince, Ning's father often accompanied him, and he couldn't understand the new emperor's preferences anymore. Therefore, in order to let her daughter get the holy favor in the harem, "Qinqi, Calligraphy and Painting" has been a compulsory course for Ning Yun since she was a child.

It's hard for Bai Xiaochu, and he almost turned his hair white. She doesn't know anything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting! How can she explain to Ning's father, who often checks his daughter's "homework"?

It's just that Ning's father is very strict in this, and every few days, after checking the homework of several sons of the Ning family, he comes to check on the eldest daughter, like a school inspector, and he can't fool the past.

Bai Xiaochu had no choice, so he could only call himself sick, and he didn't even dare to take a step out of the room to eat, for fear that he would be asked by Father Ning and then leak the bottom.

When Ning Yun heard this, she already knew it in her heart. This is not much different from what she originally thought.

She refilled Bai Xiaochu's tea and comforted her: "Sister, don't worry, relax first." Her father is a literati, and it is reasonable that she wants her daughter to win favor through the path of guò literature. So female celebrity and piano skills, you can rest assured that your father will not embarrass you too much; In terms of painting, you just say with a calm face that you don't want to paint, and he won't insist, there are some reasons for this, you don't need to know, just rest assured that you can do what I say; As for playing chess, my father is busy with official business, and there are very few opportunities to play chess with you in person, so you just need to find a way to hide it from the female master, and there is no need to worry about this. ”

Ning Yun lowered her head and took a sip of tea: "It's poetry and calligraphy, but my father and she must check every few days, the homework of two younger brothers and a cousin, he probably takes an exam every three days, you just need to calculate the time, give him a pair of handwritten poems on the same day, but you can also deal with one or two...... You stick to it carefully for a while, and after this year, the draft is settled, and you don't have to worry about it. ”。
