Ning Wanran seemed to understand Ning Zhixuan's thoughts, and no longer dwelled on these trivialities, but followed Ning Wanhua and Ning Xinyu towards the main house of Jing Ruixuan.

"Miss, do you think that today's Fifth Miss doesn't seem to be the same as before?" Su Xin felt the subtle changes in Ning Wanran's body, but she couldn't tell what was different from usual.

"Su Xin, you must be cautious in your words and deeds when you go in for a while." Ning Zhixuan said and unconsciously glanced outside the courtyard and said, "Tell the people in the front yard that whoever wants to enter the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion today, they must try to help him enter the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”

"Could it be that Miss Fei noticed that someone would come to our Prime Minister's Mansion today?" Su Xin asked puzzled.

Ning Zhiwen replied: "I also have a vague premonition that that person will come, but I can't be very sure that he will come." ”

Ning Fanzhi was first happy because Ning Yucheng was so young, and he was praised by the brilliant Yuan Qingxuan, and then he was even more happy because he learned from the Bai family that Ning Banghua's entry into Prince Heng's mansion as a concubine would be settled in late autumn and early winter.

Probably because of the sentence that people are in good spirits on happy occasions, Ning Fanzhi spent breakfast with the Bai family for the first time after neglecting the Bai family for several months.

When Ning Zhiyun and the others entered the house, Ning Fanzhi had just had breakfast with the Bai family, and was now tasting the lily soup made by the Bai family.

"Greetings to my father and mother." Now that the Bai family is favored, the most proud is Ning Banghua, so she took the lead in walking out with her daughter-in-law, and bowed down to the head to say goodbye.

"Greetings to my father and mother." After Ning Banghua, it was naturally the turn of Ning Zhixuan, who was also a concubine, to kneel on the ground and kowtow to Ning Fanzhi and the Bai family who were on the throne.

In the end, it was Ning Xinyu's turn to be a concubine and a concubine, Ning Wanran, and Ning Yucheng knelt down and kowtowed to Ning Fanzhi and the Bai clan at the top and said, "Say hello to my father and mother." ”

Ning Fan sat on the upper seat with a straight face, and the Bai family beside him was responsible for calling out one by one.

If it weren't for Ning Wanran accidentally falling to the ground when she got up, Ning Fanzhi would never have noticed her little daughter's haggard face.

"Why is Ran'er's face so ugly, but is there any discomfort in her body?" Ning Fanzhi saw that Ning Yucheng's recent face, and he would also say a few words of concern to Ning Wanran.

"It's the daughter who has lost her honor, please don't blame the father and mother." Ning Wanran's whole person was like a sifting chaff and barely maintained a kneeling posture, but fine beads of sweat were already pouring out of his forehead.

"Fifth sister, are you alright?" Ning Zhixuan saw that Ning Wan was uncomfortable, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the No. 1 pulse for her.

"Don't bother the second girl to worry about it." The fifth aunt saw that Ning Zhiyun wanted to take Ning Wanran's pulse, and in a panic, she pushed Ning Zhiyun vigorously, "Ran'er is just infected with the wind and cold, and it will be fine if you go back and rest." ”

Ning Zhixuan was pushed back again and again by the fifth aunt, but fortunately, she was able to stabilize her figure with the help of Su Xin.

The fifth aunt has always been timid and docile, but now she pushed Ning Zhiyun regardless of her dignity, so Ning Fanzhi would naturally be suspicious of Ning Wanran's weakness.

"Auntie, what's wrong with the fifth sister? Why is my aunt so flustered, today while my father is here, if there is any father, he will definitely make decisions for the fifth sister. Seeing that the fifth aunt was anxiously trying to take Ning Wanran away, Ning Zhiyun had already walked out to stop her, "I see that the fifth sister is uncomfortable right now, why don't you let me take the pulse for the fifth sister?" ”

The fifth aunt saw that Ning Zhixuan was about to break the matter, so she was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and said: "Xiangye, Ran'er occasionally felt a cold yesterday, which will cause her body to be so weak, and I hope that Xiangye will be considerate and let the concubine take Ran'er back to Cuiwei Pavilion to rest." ”

When the matter came to this, the Bai family understood the little Jiujiu in Ning Wanran's heart, concluded that she must have injured herself, and then tried in vain to blame her head, and was thinking about how to deal with it in her heart, Ning Wanhua on the side couldn't hold her breath and said, "Fifth sister, what's wrong?" How can you be so weak? Is it really as my aunt said, infected with the wind cold? Ning Wanhua walked into Ning Wanran as he spoke, and pretended to be concerned and said: "Seeing that the fifth sister is so sick, it is really time for the second sister to take a good look at the pulse." ”

Ning Fanzhi saw the fifth aunt's frightened look, and saw that Ning Wanran was so weak, and thought that it was the Bai family who embarrassed Ning Wanran last night, but now that Ning Wanhua took the initiative to mention that Ning Zhiyun wanted Ning Wanran to cut the pulse for Ning Wanran, he was a little unsure whether the Bai family was really embarrassed Ning Wanran.

Ning Zhiyun cut her pulse for Ning Wanran as she said, but her eyes suddenly widened after a while, and finally she tried her best to suppress the horror in her eyes and said: "The fifth sister did suffer from some cold, but fortunately, she had taken the medicine to ward off the cold in time, and now it is fine." ”

"If it's okay, why is Ran'er still so weak?" Ning Fanzhi asked very puzzled.

"Xiangye, Ran'er's body is weak, and if he can't withstand the wind and cold, he will be weaker than others, and it will be okay to go back and recuperate." The fifth aunt seemed to be afraid of something, and her body trembled irrepressibly as she spoke.

Although Ning Fanzhi never asked about the backyard, and he would not pay attention to the battles between the rooms, he was not completely unaware of the situation of the Bai family's dominance over the years.

"Son, you say." Ning Fanzhi looked at Ning Wanran, who was sick, and Ning Yucheng, who buried his head on the ground and didn't dare to raise it, and finally set his eyes on Ning Zhiyun's body.

"Father, judging by the pulse of the fifth sister, it seems to be...... Yes......" Ning Zhixuan is now pretending to be timid and afraid, in a dilemma, as if she doesn't dare to reveal the truth.

"Father is here, even though you tell the truth." If he encounters these backyard intrigues on weekdays, Ning Fanzhi will turn a blind eye, but now that Ning Yucheng is about to enter the Yuan Mansion to study, he will take the road of imperial examination in the future, and the heavy task of revitalizing the lintel of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion falls on his shoulders alone, and it is naturally worth maintaining Ning Fanzhi.

"Father, the fifth sister is not only cold, but also has some heart palpitations." Ning Zhiyun has always been on bad terms with Ning Wanhua, how could she let go of such a great opportunity and not stumble on her now.

Sure enough, as soon as Ning Zhiyun's words came out, everyone's faces changed, this is not to make it clear that Ning Wanran's frightened matter is linked to the Bai family, otherwise how can it be explained that Ning Wanran, a young lady of the Xiangfu Boudoir, would be frightened for no reason, thinking that the cause and effect of the fright must be inseparable from the Bai family.

Seeing Ning Zhiyun splashing dirty water on the Bai family in front of everyone, Ning Banghua, who already hated Ning Zhiyun to the bone marrow, couldn't pretend to be invisible, only to see her take a deep breath hard, keep her tone steady, look at Ning Zhiwen and said, "What do you mean by this, second sister?" The fifth sister was in the boudoir, how could she be frightened for no reason, and it even caused heart palpitations? ”

"The eldest sister is so smart that no one can guess the reason, and my sister and I can't guess the cause of the fifth sister's heart palpitations." Although Ning Zhixuan couldn't guess it, the eyes that looked at Ning Banghua implied a mockery of knowingly asking.

"I beg my father not to worry about Ran'er anymore, it is because Ran'er herself is not angry, and her weak body will fall ill because of a little fright." Ning Wanran has always been quiet and self-contained, and it is precisely because she has always been like this that she can get a little pity from Ning Fan when she pretends to be weak now.

"How did you get sick and frightened for no reason?" Ning Fanzhi continued to ask, and the implication was to give Ning Wanran justice.

Ning Banghua looked at Ning Wanran, who was kneeling on the ground and cowering, and then looked at the fifth aunt beside her who was so anxious that her eyes were red, but what she thought in her heart was a dog that would bite people.

"I beg my father not to pursue this matter anymore." Ning Wanran said that she was already dragging her sick body here, and she kowtowed to Ning Fanzhi and said, "My daughter really fell ill because of her weak body, and I ask my father not to be careful." ”

Ning Zhixuan saw Ning Wanhua's increasingly ugly face, and deliberately helped Ning Wanran and said: "Father, for the sake of the fifth sister being so weak, my father should not pursue it anymore, so as not to hurt the harmony between the sisters in the end, and make it difficult for you, father." ”

Everyone originally only suspected that it was the Bai family who gave Ning Wanran a grievance, which made Ning Wanran, who had always been timid and cowardly, frightened and fell ill with the cold, but now that they heard Ning Zhiyun's words, it seemed that they were indirectly persuading Ning Fanzhi to value harmony, and for the sake of family and prosperity, and not to pursue Bai's faults.

Although Ning Zhiyun's words clearly seemed to be pleading for the Bai family, she secretly unknowingly implemented the Bai family's crime of abusing Ning Wanran.

"Father, yesterday my mother did pass the fifth sister to Jingrui Xuan, but it was just out of concern, after all, the fifth sister returned late for no reason, and my mother, as the housewife, should also ask one or two." Ning Banghua said and looked at the people around her, "After the fifth sister entered Jing Ruixuan, my mother just asked a few words routinely, and she did not treat the fifth sister harshly. ”

Ning Wanhua saw that Ning Wanran and Ning Zhiyun quietly splashed dirty water on her and the Bai family, so she didn't care about the Bai family's obstruction, so she simply brought the matter to the bright side.

"What do you mean by that, big sister?" Ning Zhiyun looked at Ning Wanhua with some surprise and said, "The fifth sister didn't say that her mother had treated her harshly, so why should the eldest sister rush to ask a room of servants to come out and testify." ”

"The fifth sister just entered Jingrui Xuan yesterday and said a few words, and when she went out, she was still fine, but she was weak early this morning, and she had heart palpitations." As Ning Wanhua spoke, a pair of sharp phoenix eyes had already fallen on Ning Wanran, who was kneeling on the ground and her face was pale, "Clear-eyed people can see that the fifth sister wants to lead the disaster to her mother's Jing Ruixuan." ”

Ning Wanran, who was still holding on to his breath, finally fell to the ground after hearing Ning Banghua's words.
