Three days later, it was the day when the Lu Mansion held the Spring Festival Banquet, and the capital would go back to the family every once in a while to hold a similar party, which was actually a gathering between wives, which could be regarded as earning some face for the men of each family and increasing contact with each other. As for which family to do, it is all up to the ideas of each lady.

The Zheng family and the Sun family were inconvenient to attend because they had just given birth to a child. Therefore, no one from the Zheng family was invited, only some small gifts were prepared, and Zheng Wan didn't care whether the Zheng family attended, it was better not to attend. lest the plan be ruined. On this day, she sent Qiu Qi to secretly observe, and she could add fuel to the fire when the time was right. Qiu Qi's disguise is very experienced, and after a few times, it is like a different person. Secretly changed a slave and maid and followed a lady into it.

Zhu Xiwen greeted several ladies in the courtyard, behaved generously and decently, and the ladies of each family also sat happily. Exquisite pastries, refreshing tea fragrance, the whole yard is beautifully arranged, and the weather is just right. Lukewarm. Everything seems to be rosy.

"Miss Ning." The maid Ping'er beside Zhu Xiwen ran to the side courtyard.

"I'm here, what's the matter?" Ning Yan gently put down the herb in his hand. These herbs must be dried.

"The young lady asked the slave maid to invite Miss Ning to go to tea together." Ping'er's gloating expression would have been suspicious if Ning Yan saw it, but now Ning Yan didn't notice it. Thinking that Zhu Xiwen is the master's wife, and she can be regarded as the master's wife, she naturally has to be respected, "Taste tea." I'm not going. These herbs also need to be dried. Thank you for your kindness. ”

"Miss Ning, you better go. Madame is waiting. Isn't it embarrassing for the slave to go if you don't go? ”

"This. All right. Ning Yan picked up the crutches at hand. Xiaoyu accompanied her, followed Ping'er's footsteps, and went to the small courtyard. So many people? As soon as Ning Yan entered the small courtyard, he noticed that there were many people discharged from the hospital. I regretted it in my heart.

"Miss Ning. There you are. I'm afraid you'll not come. Zhu Xiwen stood up enthusiastically and greeted her, stroked Ning Yan's hand, and pulled her to the seat next to her. Have a seat. It's just a gathering of friends. No restraints. ”

"Thank you, young lady." Ning Yan sat still. I was inexplicably a little uneasy.

"Mrs. Lu, who is this girl?" Someone next to him was curious about the blind man.

Zhu Xiwen patted Ning Yan's hand gently, "She is a poor girl, her eyes are somehow wrong, my husband is kind-hearted, so he took her in." Now my husband has taken her as an apprentice. ”

Ning Yan could only keep smiling. She had a feeling of uneasiness, little by little, permeating her whole body. What is afraid of happening today? Is it related to yourself? But holding back his fear, he could only maintain the cultivation he should have, and nodded slightly.

"Lu Gongzi is a good person." The ladies of the families chimed in. 'What did the girl learn?' ”

"Nature is medicine." Zhu Xiwen smiled.

"It's unheard of for a woman to study medicine."

"Yo, Xiaoyuan, come to my aunt quickly." Zhu Xiwen suddenly called a little boy with a tiger head not far away. The little boy was four or five years old, eating pastries in his mouth, and when he saw his aunt calling him, he immediately ran over. "Hello aunt."

"That's good." Zhu Xiwen touched the little boy's head. "Miss Ning, this is my little nephew." Zhu Xiwen looked at Ning Yan affectionately.

"Why is this sister blindfolded?" Zhu Chengyuan asked in a milky voice. "Oh, I see, it's a game of hide and seek!" Zhu Chengyuan suddenly rushed into Ning Yanhuan, Ning Yan subconsciously hugged it, and suddenly the scarf in front of him was torn off. Ning Yan was shocked. I panicked and wanted to get the scarf back. "Ah, why is there something red in my sister's eyes?" This sentence made Ning Yan fall into the abyss, and it was finally discovered.

"What's going on?"

"What should I do?"

"It can't be that you are possessed by an evil spirit."

"Evil?"

"Huh?"

The surrounding sounds were very noisy, and Ning Yan tried to calm down. Stay calm and you'll get back to normal.

"Xiaoyuan, come back quickly." Chen Jiajia suddenly rushed up, picked up his son, and took several steps back. "You can't be a youkai, right?"

"I'm not. No. Ning Yan hurriedly denied it.

"Ahh Possessed by evil spirits! Fifteen years ago, General Ji also fell for this kind of evil. Suddenly someone said what happened fifteen years ago, and the people around panicked, Zhu Xiwen's face changed and changed, and her lips kept trembling, if His Majesty knew that the Lu Mansion was harboring evil spirits, then the Lu family, how could this be, it was all caused by this woman.

"Burn her!" Qiu beggar mixed in the crowd and sighed softly in the ears of several slaves and maids, and this sentence aroused the selfish desires of many people, "Yes, burn her." ”

"Wouldn't it be too cruel?"

"She's all possessed by evil spirits."

All the sounds are intertwined. Ning Yan was at a loss, she suddenly thought that General Ji should be even more desperate than her, the people he protected with his life, questioned him one by one, denied him, and let him fall into a catastrophe, his past military exploits have become evidence of his bloody debts, standing in front of the people he had protected, burning him alive, what kind of feeling was it. Ning Yan's ears were full of words that burned her, everyone was like seeing hope, and kept shouting, Ning Yan's face turned pale, and her hands couldn't help trembling, a group of people didn't know the truth of the matter at all, but they convicted her. "I didn't. I'm not. Ning Yan stood up suddenly, and the red in his eyes kept flashing.

"She's not possessed by an evil spirit, she's just poisoned." Lu Tingxuan strode up to Ning Yan and gently held her arm, the touch in his hand let him know that the girl in front of him was trembling, how could people not be afraid of this kind of scene.

"Ting Xuan, don't be fooled by her." Zhu Xiwen shouted anxiously.

"The banquet is over. Please leave your seats. Lu Tingxuan stood in front of Ning Yan, his face was rare and serious. He has always been gentle and has a smile in his eyes. This time, the eyes were grim. Zhu Xiwen was horrified in her heart, and Lu Tingxuan's performance at this time made her very uneasy. "Tingxuan."

Lu Tingxuan scratched Zhu Xiwen's eyes, Zhu Xiwen couldn't help but tremble, and she didn't dare to say anything more.

The ladies of the families looked at each other and left one after another.

Lu Tingxuan finally relaxed. With a little worry, "Are you okay?" Holding Ning Yan with his hand.

Ning Yan shook his head weakly. 'It's okay, I'm afraid I'm going to get you in trouble. ”

"Xiaoyu, take Miss Ning down."

"Oooh. Slave maid right away. On the side, Xiao Yu was stunned and said.

"Master Lu, I'd better go."

"Ning Yan, I am your master. A teacher for one day and a father for life. ”

"Miss Ning, let's go back." Xiao Yu picked up the cane and stroked Ning Yan's hand.

Ning Yan let Xiao Yu and turned to leave.

"Let's talk." Lu Tingxuan's tone towards Zhu Xiwen was not very good, and Ning Yan could be regarded as understanding that everything that happened today was inseparable from this Mrs. Lu Mansion.
