After deciding everything, the Zhou family sent two maidservants and sent Suning'er back to Tanghua Courtyard with lanterns in their hands.

The relationship between the two can be regarded as easing.

In the Tanghua Courtyard, the lights in each room have not been extinguished.

Suning'er looked around, there was a dead silence everywhere, the cold wind was blowing wantonly, and there was a crisp sound of dead branches falling from time to time.

She looked into Qi's house, and the yellowed candlelight illuminated the entire window lattice, and she could faintly see the figure of a person.

I heard the movement outside, and immediately someone opened the door and rushed out.

Suning'er settled down, but saw that Ying'er was coming up excitedly, and while holding her, she shouted inside: "Big lady, Yiniang, Yiniang is back." ”

Ying'er's shouts quickly alarmed everyone in the courtyard, and Qingchun and Shuang'er rushed out of the house in unison, with tears in their eyes.

This scene scared Suning'er into a daze, but she just went to the ancestral hall to be punished, and knelt for a few hours, and several maids behaved as if they had just been released from prison after completing their sentences.

Nervously followed Qingchun into the Qi family's room, the woman had already gotten up, and was anxiously waiting.

Usually, at this hour, she designated that she was asleep, but today because of her own affairs, she had a quarrel with Zhou's Haosheng, and she was very injured, and her body was tired and sleepy.

Looking at her haggard appearance, Suning'er really didn't want to go.

When she arrived at Qi's side, she handed the prepared hand stove to Suning'er, and glanced at her happily and angrily, when the palm of her hand was on her hand, it was cold without a trace of temperature, and a sour meaning suddenly welled up in the woman's heart:

"That poisonous woman is really ruthless, on such a cold day, she actually let my Ning Er kneel in the ancestral hall for so long."

In front of several slaves in the second room, the woman scolded and reproached a few words, the tears in her eyes could no longer be contained, she wrapped her arms around Suning'er, and gently patted her on the back, while choking and muttering:

"It's good to come back, it's good to come back, it's all because A-Niang failed to protect you, you girl has been very cautious and well-behaved in the past few months, how could you go out and cause such a big disaster today."

The slave maid who led the second room saw that she was about to blame Suning'er again, so she hurriedly explained: "Don't be angry again, the Qingwang Mansion has already been explained, today's matter is a misunderstanding, and His Royal Highness the Qingwang will come to visit Yiniang in person tomorrow." ”

As soon as Qi Shi heard this, he immediately let go of his hand, looked at Su Ning'er with teary eyes, took a handkerchief and gently wiped it at the corner of his eyes, and asked softly, "His Royal Highness King Qing is coming to the mansion?" ”

Suning'er nodded hesitantly.

Qi immediately softened his posture, called the slave maid who retreated from the second room, helped Suning'er to the edge of the bed and sat down, examined her, and asked thoughtfully: "Ning'er, you tell A-Niang, what happened between you and King Qing today, did you really scold His Highness in Daye Fang?" ”

Seeing her mention this, Suning'er was really embarrassed, and she didn't know how to tell her, she thought about it slowly for a while, but finally she was still embarrassed to say it, and said with a red face: "A-Niang, this, this, Ning'er ......."

Qi Shi smiled gently, and from the look on her face, he had already gained a general understanding, held her palm lightly, and said in a low voice: "Is it because of your affair with Yuan Bai?" ”

Su Ning'er was silent, she was more sure of her guess, and sighed lightly: "We haven't been in the Western Capital for a few years, His Royal Highness King Qing was not familiar with our Su family before, and I am afraid that I don't know the things in our house, so I was kept in the dark when I asked for this family matter, and it is reasonable for him to complain." ”

Su Ning'er actually understands this truth, but when he quit his family affairs and came to the house to regain his relatives, he must have made a decision by inquiring clearly, but now he still has to care, so he has to make people feel disgusted.

If he really can't accept the past between his predecessor and Zhao Yuanbai, he can leave everything with himself after retiring from his family affairs for the first time, and even if he suffers some grievances, he will not be jealous of him.

Now he says that he wants to marry himself sincerely, but he hangs this old matter in the middle, how can the future days be fulfilled.

Qi said, and suddenly frowned: "A few days ago, I heard Ah Que say that Ning'er, the poems you will make in the Mid-Autumn Festival poems still contain affection for Yuan Bai, although Ah Niang said that she didn't understand the deep meaning of this, she could hear Ah Que read a few words, what 'acquaintance is unprovoked and empty, miss and miss', and 'love is difficult to have since ancient times, and spring is still in the old people'",

She pondered those few lines of poetry, and the anxious look on her face became more and more intense: "Not to mention His Royal Highness King Qing, even if A-Niang sees it, she will have goosebumps." ”

Su Ning'er bit her lip bitterly, and her white and tender little face was as sad as a bitter melon: "Auntie, Ning'er, Ning'er didn't." ”

"Okay, you girl", Qi Shi reproached dissatisfiedly: "A-Niang also wondered, I never saw you reading and studying on weekdays, how could I suddenly write such a heart-stringing poem and pass it to the sage." ”

In this matter, Suning'er knew that it was difficult to distinguish between clever tongues, and seeing that her mood was no longer so low, she was relieved, and quickly stood up and said to her: "Ah Niang, I heard that Ah Qin was beaten badly, Ning Er went back to see Ah Qin, the hour is not early, Ah Niang, you better rest quickly." ”

With a hurried finish, she headed out the door.

Qi Shi was interested, and wanted to tell her a few more words, but seeing that she was so impatient and about to leave, she had to say helplessly: "A-Niang asked Qingchun to prepare some supper, and it's not too late for Ning'er to eat some and then go over." ”

Suning'er had already stepped out of the door curtain with half a foot, and replied to her loudly: "Don't eat, don't eat, Ning'er will go back early." ”

"This girl", Qi sighed sullenly, and still asked Shuang'er to take some food.

Since the hanging incident in the previous body, Qin'er and Shuang'er have been sleeping on the soft collapse of the side hall outside Suning'er's wing.

Entering the house, Qin'er was awake, but she was beaten to the point that she couldn't get up, lying on the soft collapse, and when she saw Suning'er's figure, she was so happy that she was about to get up.

Su Ning'er was so distressed that she hurriedly asked her to lie down and not move, walked up to her and looked at her carefully, her eyes were sour, and she almost burst into tears: "Ah Qin, I have wronged you." ”

Qin'er snorted and replied stubbornly: "The slave is fine, the slave is rough and thick, but it's just a board, but a mother, I heard Ah Shuang say that the ancestral hall is extremely cold, and a mother is afraid that it will freeze." ”

Shuang'er also came over with the supper prepared by Qi at this time, Suning'er looked at her haggard appearance, and didn't think about eating a good hot meal, so she quickly asked Shuang'er to take the food for her, so that she could fill her stomach again.

In the warm room, the master and servant looked at each other, and the hardship was finally overcome.
