Chapter 18: Reflection

As soon as Ning Qinghan returned to the boudoir, he drove the maids down, "Let's go down with the ink painting, I want to be quiet alone." ”

Ning Qinghan has been circling between the old lady and the Xu family since she crossed over, and found that the situation in Ning Guohou's mansion was not as simple as she thought, the old lady's poisoning, the clues pointed directly to the Western Regions, and the death of the original owner's parents, in the memory of the original owner, Ning Guohou was killed on the battlefield because of his unauthorized war, and then he was tricked by the enemy country and died on the battlefield. When the original owner's mother heard the bad news, she disappeared that night. The emperor remembered that the Marquis of Ning Guohou had helped the emperor to open the country, and his wife was martyred, but he did not make a clear decree to blame.

At first glance, there is indeed no problem with hearing this news, but Ning Qinghan thought about it carefully, it was indeed full of loopholes, in the memory of the original owner, Mrs. Ning Guohou loved the original owner very much, and on the afternoon of the day the news came, they were still sitting together for dinner, Mrs. Ning Guohou also said to the original owner, your father is gone, my mother will cherish you even more, and after you are married, my mother will definitely find you a good family to marry... This sentence kept coming to Ning Qinghan's mind, and Ning Qinghan thought to herself, Mrs. Hou must not have died of illness, but where should she start to investigate?

Ning Qinghan rubbed his head, and thought about it, except for the original owner, who was involved in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, the others did not learn much because of his mother's favor when he was a child. Ning Qinghan made up her mind to study medicine hard. In this way, you can avenge your parents.

In a blink of an eye, the sky gradually darkened, and all rooms had already used dinner, only Qinghetang was still quiet.

Zhishu came back from the big kitchen to get dinner, and when he saw the darkness in the room, he subconsciously stepped forward and knocked on the door

Just as he was about to knock on the door, Ning Qinghan came back to his senses from his thoughts, touched his stomach, and subconsciously called out to someone, "Siqin...."

"The slave knows the book and has seen Miss, Miss, do you need to pass the meal?" As she spoke, Si Qin came in and lit the candles.

"Okay, let's pass the meal!" Ning Qinghan nodded

At this moment, Yuqi walked in crying, threw herself in front of Ning Qinghan and knelt down and begged, "Miss, the slave's mother is seriously ill, it is said that time is running out, the slave wants to go back to see her, woo......"

Ning Qinghan looked at the appearance of Yuqi, she couldn't bear it, and recalled from the original owner's mind that this Yuqi was also one of her big maids, and her mother personally selected it when she was a child.

So, Ning Qinghan hurriedly helped Yuqi up, "Your mother is seriously ill, and it is also appropriate to go back and do her filial piety, this is fifty taels of silver, take it to your mother first, buy some good medicinal materials for your mother to take, and then come back to serve when your mother is well." ”

"The silver that the slave maid has saved in the past few years is enough to treat her mother, and the young lady can allow the slave and maid to leave the house, and the slave and maid are very grateful" Yuqi refused to accept Ning Qinghan's kindness, and resigned again and again.

Ning Qinghan couldn't help but stuff the silver into her hand, "Hurry up and go back to see your mother." ”

Yu Qi was moved, and after kneeling down and kowtowing to Ning Qinghan, he retreated.
