Xian Chen was surprised when he heard this, and couldn't help but confirm again: "Can you really see it?" ”

Xiao Yu'er nodded heavily, her eyes were very firm: "I heard Miss Mei lead me to recognize the way in the garden, and I saw a second-class maid come up to talk to Miss Mei, but unexpectedly, the person saw the slave and hurriedly turned around and left." It took a while for the slave to remember that it wasn't the red jade. ”

Xianchen thought for a moment and said: "I relented for a moment that day and let her go, I thought that she would be sent out by Ning Mansion by mistake, but at least she saved her life, but I didn't expect that she would go back to Ning Mansion and become a second-class maid." Ning Fu will never leave a useless chess piece, since he is back, he must have chips in his hand. Thinking about this, it is difficult to hide the uneasiness.

"I don't know what that red jade did in our house that day? Miss, you are just too soft-hearted to let her be deceived. Although Xiao Yu'er didn't know the reason, he could probably guess that Xianchen was very likely to let the tiger return to the mountain.

"The soldiers will come to block it, and the water will cover it." Xian Chen thought that maybe things were not as complicated as he thought, and he remembered the main purpose of sending Xiao Yu'er out: "Let's not mention this matter for the time being, you have been out for a long time, but what else have you gained?" ”

Xiao Yu'er has been thinking about the red jade in her mind for half a day, and she almost forgot the important things, and she smoothed out what she saw and heard with Tingmei in her heart one by one, and then said to Xian Chen.

First, the backyard of the entire Ning Mansion is centered on Princess Anping's Anruo Palace, the east is the orange Huai Pavilion of Ningluozhi, the south is the old lady's "Chi Shou Hall", and the west is Ning Zhe's original residence. To the north and in the more remote courtyard were the residences of the aunts and their subordinates. Tingmei also specially instructed that there is a laneway in the southwest that is connected to the outer courtyard, and it is close to Ning Shoufu's study, and there are often men in and out, try not to go over if you have nothing to do, if you bump into it, you will be ashamed to death.

Second, Ning Mansion has been her housekeeper since Princess Anping gave birth to Ning Zhe, although the old lady is healthy, but she likes to be quiet and not very big, except for very important matters, she hardly goes out of the yard. On the first day of the month, in the middle and late of each month, Princess Anping and Miss Gongzi have to go to the old lady to say goodbye, and it is best not to disturb the old lady if there is nothing to do on weekdays.

Third, there are three sons from Ningfu, who are now all officials in other places or manage Ningfu's industries outside Beijing. There are also six young ladies who are out of the cabinet, three of them have been out of the cabinet, and the other three are kept by the aunt's side and do not often go out to meet guests, so they naturally see the old lady when they ask for peace.

After Xiao Yu'er finished speaking, she suddenly felt that her mouth was dry, and Rose handed her a glass of water and said to Xian Chen: "The wind direction in this mansion is really one-sided." It's no wonder that Madame is a princess, and when she is a concubine and can compete, the old lady may be the only person in this house who makes Madame a little jealous. ”

Xian Chen nodded knowingly and said, "I have to find out about the old lady's preferences." ”

"Why don't you ask Hou Ye, Hou Ye must know." Rose was a little distraught when she said this.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to see Master Hou today, and I can't tell when I'll see him again, so let's figure it out by myself."

Xianchen suddenly remembered what Meng Zhiyue's maid said, and suddenly sent the two of her out without any mood, and she lay on the bed in a daze, in a daze, in the first month...... What happened in Yecheng in the first month? How could she be clueless? Was the drunken trouble before or after the ghost market encounter? Thinking about it, Xianchen couldn't help but fall asleep in a daze.

When Xianchen woke up and had missed dinner, Princess Anping heard that she was still resting, so she ordered her to rest, saying that when she woke up, she would let the small kitchen bring dinner to the room. Ning Zhe returned to the Wen'an Hou Mansion after dinner, and asked his cronies to send a bag of things to Xianchen before leaving. When Xianchen opened it, he felt incredible, this Ning Fold was like a roundworm in his stomach, and there was a letter in it, which wrote the old lady's preferences: the old lady likes magpie birds the most, loves sweets, likes to watch shadow puppet shows, and so on. Xianchen looked at the baggage again, and there was a set of shadow puppet puppets.

She understood Ning Zhe's thoughts, and Xianchen never expected Ning Zhe to be so meticulous and arranged for her to come here. Thinking that tonight happened to be sleepy, and he couldn't live up to Ning Fold a piece of his heart, he simply came to work hard, and maybe he could use it. Before I knew it, I didn't go to bed to rest, and I fell asleep on the desk. On the second day, Xiao Yu'er came in to serve her and freshen up, and was startled when she saw her lying next to the desk, and she was angry and heartbroken for a long time, and Xianchen begged for mercy again and again before stopping.

Listening to Princess Anping's tone last time, Xianchen thought that he wouldn't see Ning Zhe for a long time, but who knew that he came to Anping again in the morning to ask for peace, Princess Anping was having breakfast with Ning Luozhi, Meng Zhiyue and Xianchen, and Ning Zhe said that he had not yet had breakfast and sat down together.

Ning Luozhi took a piece of pine nut lily crisp, bit a small corner, and put it on the plate and said, "This cook's skills have regressed more and more. ”

"I'm okay to eat, if my sister doesn't like to eat, I'll bring my sister some Qi Fangzhai snacks tomorrow." Ning Zhe dotes on his sister in the end.

Ning Luotong said angrily when he heard this: "Brother is coming over again tomorrow?" In the past, my brother only came to greet his mother once in ten days and a half months, but he was diligent these days. ”

"How does this kid talk to his brother?" Princess Anping reprimanded Ning Luotong and said to Ning Zhe kindly: "You don't have to buy Qi Fangzhai's dim sum, I'm just like that, Zhiyue's craftsmanship is very good, if you can bother her to cook next time, we will have a good mouth." ”

Princess Anping's implication was to ask Ning to invite Meng Zhiyue, he was reluctant and didn't want to distract his mother, so he had to say politely: "Mother wants to eat Miss Meng's craftsmanship, and Miss Meng is a person who respects the old and respects the virtuous, so she won't shirk it, but if everyone wants it and Miss Meng is not too tired, please ask Miss Meng to make a single copy for her mother." ”

Meng Zhiyue got up and responded generously.

Princess Anping's eyes touched Xian Chen's gaze and said elegantly: "What Zhe'er said is reasonable, then it can't be said that Miss Yan has to share one or two for Zhiyue." ”

"Me? I won't...... I ......, "What a man came from heaven sitting at the table, and she remembered going to the kitchen only a handful of times, and every time she was hungry to find food."

"Miss Yan doesn't have to be too humble, I'm looking forward to Miss Yan's craftsmanship." Princess Anping said with a warm smile.

Ning Luozhi looked at the dust, and a smile flashed in his eyes and said: "Miss Meng Yingying is weak and weak, and she works tirelessly to honor her elders, so I think Miss Yan will not refuse." ”

"Uh...... Are you sure you want to eat what I made? At this moment, Xianchen just wants everyone to sign a "life and death certificate" first, so as not to have any three long and two short, and she can't bear the responsibility.

"It's okay, I'll finish what you do." Although Ning Zhen knew Princess Anping's intentions, he was still looking forward to it at the moment.
