Winding corridors, pavilions and water pavilions, smoke willows painting bridges, heavy eaves and stacked walls, under the guidance of the Gu Mansion, she followed Mrs. Ning step by step to the inside.

In the eyes of others, today is the first time she has entered the Gu Mansion. But in fact, Ningxia Qing is no stranger to this place, in order to pave the way for Tan Wenshi, she spent a lot of effort to make friends with these noble ladies, and the preferences and habits of these people are like a treasure.

She knew that the uncle of the Gu Mansion had lived separately since he was knighted, and his three younger brothers still lived together. This huge Gu Mansion, from top to bottom, there are more than 20 masters of all sizes. Where there are many people, there are many rights and wrongs, and these families live together, and there will be intrigue and open guns and arrows. To put it mildly, even if the Gu family fell in love with her and wanted her to enter the door, she was not willing to enter such a dirty place.

As soon as they sat down, Mrs. Gu walked up, exchanged a few words with Mrs. Ning and Ningxia Qing, and then bent down slightly, looking at the delicate and lovely Zi'er, she couldn't help but like it, so she asked with a smile: "Does Zi'er like it here?" ”

Zi'er stared at Old Lady Gu with a pair of big round eyes, but did not answer.

Since she entered the Gu Mansion, she has not spoken. This Gu Mansion was too grand and luxurious, and she was frightened, and she couldn't help but recognize it. In addition, as soon as she entered the flower hall, she saw black people sitting inside, all wearing gold and silver, jewelry, which made her even more nervous, and her little heart was pounding.

Therefore, in addition to saluting and greetings, she never said a word more, and the maid of the Gu Mansion gave her refreshments and fruits, but she only followed carefully, and did not dare to send them to her mouth.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Ning Xia Qing glanced at her and nodded at her, she plucked up her courage and replied in a low voice: "Grandma Gu is so stylish here, there are a lot of people." Although she was young, she also knew what she could and couldn't say, and she didn't really like it very much, so she just praised a few words.

"Zi'er is so cute!" Old Lady Gu smiled more kindly, took Zi'er's little hand, rubbed it lovingly, and said kindly: "Then Zi'er should be Grandma Gu's granddaughter-in-law, so that you can live here forever." ”

Ning Xia Qing was stunned when she heard this, and immediately looked at Mrs. Ning, and everyone in the flower hall also looked at them, and the most intense eyes were Mrs. Gu's daughters-in-law.

Old Lady Ning immediately said, "How can Zi'er be so blessed? Although Mrs. Ning said it with a smile, she was a little unhappy in her heart, everyone knew that this was a joke, but Mrs. Gu made this kind of joke in public, which inevitably meant to despise the Ning family, in the end, it was a big family, and it was really not as good as when she was a child.

After Mrs. Ning said this, the eyes of Mrs. Gu's daughters-in-law softened slightly. The most obvious frown on the brow is the third grandmother, the third grandmother is a son, and the age is exactly the same as Zi'er, hearing that the old lady Gu said that she wants Zi'er to be her granddaughter-in-law, the third grandmother's eyebrows immediately jumped up and twisted together. Next to the third grandmother is the fourth grandmother, the fourth grandmother has been married into the Gu family for three years, has not yet given birth, and usually suffers from white eyes, but at the moment she gloated, looking at the third grandmother's jokes with a smile. Surprisingly, the one whose face became the most powerful was the second grandmother, and the sons under the second grandmother's knees were all very different in age from Zi'er, but her face was instantly as white as paper. The others at the table listened to Mrs. Gu's words, and they were all moved, but they didn't say anything clearly, but just echoed a few words.

Ning Ningqing took in everyone's reactions, couldn't help sneering in her heart, looking at Zi'er, who was still ignorant, she was a little distressed, on an occasion like today, she shouldn't let Zi'er come over, Gu's mansion was deep, and the good show she prepared hadn't been played yet, and the smell of gunpowder was already strong enough.

Zi'er didn't understand what Grandma Gu's words meant, she could only see that since Grandma Gu said that, the eyes of everyone at the banquet looked at her. Zi'er was even more scared, so she quietly walked to Ning Ningqing's side while Grandma Gu was talking to the maid, opened her mouth, but didn't dare to squeak. Seeing this, Ning Xia Qing bent down and asked, "What's wrong with Zi'er?" ”

"Sister, I want to ...... Relieve your hands...... Zi'er's little face turned red, and she whispered into her sister's ear.

Ning Xia Qing was stunned, then took Zi'er's hand, looked up and said to Mrs. Ning: "Grandma, Zi'er had an extra cup of tea before going out, and I will take her for a walk outside." ”

Old lady Gu had already finished talking to the maid, and when she heard Ning Ningqing say this, she immediately understood, asked the maid to lead the way for the Ning sisters, and instructed: "The guests have almost arrived, the feast is about to start, you can come back early." ”

Ning Xia Qing nodded, and then took Zi'er out. She estimated that Zhao Xiang'e was about to appear, and when she took Zi'er back to the flower hall, Mrs. Shen should also arrive, and everything was just right.

Unexpectedly, when she and Zi'er just walked to the door of the flower hall, a woman dressed in a satin gown, gold and jade jewelry, and a crown of emerald hair walked in, followed by a young man who was white and pure.

The two sides looked at each other, and they were both stunned.

It was impossible for Mrs. Shen to believe that in this noble and gorgeous Gu Mansion, she would actually see a shabby girl from the Ning family, her pace suddenly stopped, she looked Ning Ningqing up and down in disbelief, and after confirming that it was her, she showed an unhappy expression and asked in a low voice unhappily: "Why did you appear here?" ”

This Mrs. Shen has always been arrogant, and she will always have no one in her eyes, no matter whether she is justified or not, she has to sneer or yell at others, and the Cao family was so angry with Mrs. Shen that her illness worsened. Ning Ningqing was instantly annoyed in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, and smiled faintly: "Old lady Gu invited grandma to come to the birthday banquet, so I naturally followed." ”

Old Lady Gu actually invited Old Lady Ning? Mrs. Shen's expression seemed to have heard something impossible, and then gradually turned to curiosity. Ning Xia Qing knew that Mrs. Shen must have wanted to ask Mrs. Ning what the relationship was between the Gu family, but at this moment, there were many people, and even if Mrs. Shen had the heart to listen, it was inconvenient to ask more.

Sure enough, Mrs. Shen glanced at Ning Xia Qing in disgust, then retracted her gaze, called her son, and walked towards the flower hall without saying a word to Ning Xia Qing again.

Shen Zhiyuan, who was following Mrs. Shen, stopped and glanced at Ning Ningqing in shock. Speaking of which, the fiancé hasn't seen each other for more than two years.

Shen Zhiyuan has long known that his wife who has not passed through the door was born beautifully, and for so many years, Shen Zhiyuan's heart has been itching. However, in the past two years, he has been in and out of Fengyue Field several times with several classmates who claim to be merry and talented, and he has seen red flowers and willows, and his thoughts about Ningxia Qing have faded. But when he saw it today, his soul was gone.

It turned out that Ningxia Qing was so beautiful, Rao was a self-proclaimed among thousands of flowers, and he had never felt like this, as if there were tens of thousands of cats scratching in his heart, which made him feel hot all over. It turned out that his fiancée was so beautiful, it would be a pity if she missed it.

Shen Zhiyuan was shocked, but he didn't forget to smile at Ning Ningqing, and the meaning in his expression was infinite. Mrs. Shen seemed to have eyes behind her back, and immediately turned her head sharply, looking at Ning Xia Qing fiercely with fierce eyes. Ning Xia Qing lowered his face, avoiding the gaze of the Shen family's mother and son. Shen Zhiyuan was helpless, and because of his mother's presence, he had to endure the heat in his patience for the time being, and followed his mother into the flower hall.

As soon as Shen Zhiyuan entered the flower hall, the girls in the flower hall who had not left the pavilion secretly looked at him, and I have to say that Shen Zhiyuan was indeed born a talent. All the noble ladies in the flower hall began to greet Mrs. Shen, and even Mrs. Gu greeted Mrs. Shen and Shen Zhiyuan with a smile.

Ning Xia Qing turned around and was about to take Zi'er away, but she heard Mrs. Ning's voice "Mrs. In-laws" from the flower hall.

Ning Xia Qing looked back and saw that Mrs. Shen's expression was embarrassed and flustered, obviously taken aback, and a little displeased, while Mrs. Gu asked in surprise, "Could it be that the old sister told me that day that the person who booked Qing'er was the Shen family?"

When Old Madam Gu asked, the faces of the ladies in the flower hall immediately froze, Mrs. Shen's face turned blue, and the eyes of everyone present looking at Mrs. Shen became a little complicated.

And Old Lady Ning still looked at Mrs. Shen affectionately, as if she didn't notice the change in everyone. Ning Xia Qing couldn't help but want to snicker, immediately turned around, pulled Zi'er and left.
