Chapter 17: What the Woman Was Like?
When Zhao Ziling woke up the next day, he found that he was still holding the piece of blood jade and placing it on his chest. I was a little stunned for a while, could it be that I couldn't do my magic wand, but the eldest lady who dared to drill the dog hole like her was indeed rare, probably because she thought she was quite funny.
Zhao Ziling comforted himself like this, but thinking that Luo Ning would come to return the carriage today, he couldn't wait to rush to the other courtyard.
Sure enough, after a while, the next person said that someone had come to return the carriage, Zhao Ziling thought that Luo Ning was coming, and rushed out like a happy arrow in his heart, how did he know that Luo Ning did not come, only Ma Qi came, he was like being poured a basin of cold water on his head for a moment, and said in frustration, "What about your young lady, when you borrow it, you will be happy, and you won't come when you pay it back." ”
Ma Qiyi saw the young master in front of him with a cold face, and said in a daze, "Don't be angry, Miss, Miss is originally a woman in the boudoir, how can she say it and come out, I went back late yesterday, and I am being punished by the good lady today, and I invite Sone Haihan." ”
As soon as Zhao Ziling heard that she was being punished, she suddenly lost her arrogance, and was only worried that she would not be able to withstand the punishment, so Ma Qi handed over the carriage to the butler and took his leave.
When Ma Qi walked away, Zhao Ziling remembered that he forgot to ask them about the name of the house, where to find someone in the future, and remembered that there was a sick man in this courtyard, and his heart was finally a little more stable.
Luo Ning got up early in the morning and went to Lanyuan with a noodle person, and the old lady was still sitting on the kang so kindly, looking at her with a smile.
After only one night's work, Luo Ning felt that the old lady seemed to be different from herself, and there were many things in her eyes that she couldn't understand.
"I heard that Sister Luo came back very late last year, and I don't know what delayed me."
Luo Ning understands very well that the old lady looks very kind at the moment, but if she can't give a suitable reason, I'm afraid that it will be a matter of an instant to change her face.
"Back to grandmother's words, Luo'er doesn't know who she offended, yesterday someone on the street wanted to take Luo'er's life, fortunately there was a son who rescued her righteously, Luo'er was able to come back to her grandmother to ask for guilt, otherwise, Luo'er may not have the opportunity to be filial to her grandmother in the future." The moment when she escaped outside the city yesterday, she suddenly remembered that in her previous life, she was killed by Yang Ming and Xiangning, and she was sad for a while, and the emotions on her face were really the same, the old lady looked at Luo Ning's pale little face and slightly trembling lips, and believed Luo Ning's words.
Thinking that she came back in the general's wife's carriage, she might not be able to make any contribution to the Ye family in the future, anyway, she came back safely, so why bother with a little thing.
The old lady closed her eyes and recuperated, and asked Luo Ning in a homely manner, "I heard that Sister Qiu went to your place to make trouble." ”
Thinking of the incident when Sister Qiu made a big fuss in Jingyuan the day before yesterday, Luo Ning was indeed a little aggrieved, "Sister Qiu seems to have a prejudice against Luo'er these days, but Luo'er won't take it to heart, Luo'er is a concubine, of course she should be a bit of a concubine." ”
The old lady nodded with satisfaction and said, "Sister Qiu'er, that girl, has been spoiled by your father all these years, and she doesn't know how to be inferior at all, so it's time to teach her a good lesson." ”
Luo Ning made up her mind, it seems that Qiu Ning has to continue to learn this rule.
She saw that her grandmother's face was a little pale, so she quickly took out the little face man and said, "Grandmother, you see how delicate this face is." ”
The old lady has never seen any scenes in her life, and she has never touched any treasure, and the person in front of her is indeed a rare object, which evokes the memories of the old lady's childhood, and she can't help but feel a little sour.
"You girl, you've been getting more and more well-behaved recently, and you know how to buy this to please your grandmother, okay, it's rare that you have filial piety, and your grandmother has it."
Luo Ning liked a grandmother, so she said happily, "Grandmother likes it, Luo'er is the happiest." ”
The third room sitting on the side was not as good as the second room, bowing her head and lowering her eyebrows, but she didn't say a word for a long time, and the seventh sister Yu Ning who was sitting on the side was also very well-behaved and sensible.
At this time, the maid Snow Goose next to Sanfang had something to report, and the Wang family in Sanfang immediately raised his head, listened carefully with a slight frown, and then said to his grandmother, "Mother, the master is back, saying that it is not very comfortable, and the concubine will go and take a look." ”
The color on my grandmother's face instantly receded, and she said with a cold face, "I'm not feeling well, I'm afraid I'm going to drink again." ”
Wang hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Mother is not like that, he is just in a bad mood recently." ”
When the grandmother heard this, she was even more angry, and knocked on the small pear wood square table in front of her with her hand and said, "When will he be in a good mood, isn't it just that a concubine has died, and a big man will indulge in wine all day long, what does it look like." ”
Luo Ning has the impression that her grandmother has always been a person who knows how to hide and endure, and now she is in a hurry to do this for the sake of the third uncle, it seems that the third uncle has really been too unreasonable in the past two years.
"Mother, the daughter-in-law is paying attention to see if there is anyone who looks like that woman, if you find it, you will marry Shizhong again." Wang said with low eyebrows.
When my grandmother heard this, she could only stop talking, and her expression flickered a little, as if there was something hidden in this matter, which could make my grandmother give in.
"Okay, okay, I see that your heart has already flown to him, let's go." Grandmother said impatiently.
Luo Ning saw that her grandmother was in a bad mood, so she quickly retreated.
She happened to meet her brother when she went out, so she couldn't help but ask two sentences and said, "How did the third uncle become like this, I remember that he used to be the most clean and elegant, how could he make my grandmother so sad now." ”
Luo Jun looked at his sister's fair-skinned and pure appearance, and couldn't bear to let her know about those dark pasts, so he said casually, "It's probably because the third uncle has been in a bad mood recently, don't worry about this as a woman." ”
Luo Ning was disappointed when she heard this, and her brother refused to tell her, forget it, then she asked her mother to go.
Cui's in the second room originally planned to watch a good show of Luo Ning today, but he didn't expect to see the uncle in the third room who was sleeping outside and staying in Liu for a month came back, and he thought it was really boring.
However, Luo Ning was interested in the concubine who died before the third uncle, what kind of woman made the third uncle so haggard.
Back in Jingyuan, Luo Ning drew the woman's appearance with her mother, and Liu reluctantly painted more, "After two years, my mother doesn't know whether the painting is accurate or not, in short, it should be like this, the woman's appearance is not gorgeous, it can only be regarded as upright, but your third uncle is fascinated by her." ”
Luo Ning didn't think so, and said, "How a woman with a mediocre appearance won the favor of the third uncle must have something extraordinary about her." ”
Liu couldn't help but recall, "If you say anything extraordinary, it seems that there is, she seems to know the art of divination very well, every time she says it is very accurate, and she is quite popular in the house, once she also looked at your face and said that you will die first and then live." ”
Hearing this, Luo Ning's heart tightened, thinking that fortunately the concubine was dead,
"Then how did such a delicate and transparent person die?" Luo Ning couldn't help but ask.
Liu sighed slightly and said, "That day Yaojun gave birth, by the way, her name is Yaojun, I didn't expect it to be a difficult birth, and finally when the midwife came out and asked Lord Bao or the child, your third uncle said to protect the child, your grandmother said to protect the child, people like us have always been to protect the heir, your grandmother said this, it is not too much, but your third uncle was annoyed, he had to protect the adult, and when the two of them argued, Yaojun died first, one corpse and two lives. ”
"Your third uncle was stupid that night, and invited a lot of people to come before he called the soul back, but since then, he has been away from home all day, and being alone is considered ruined."
"Ah, that's what it is." No wonder my grandmother's expression flickered a little today, and it seems that I feel sorry for the third uncle.
