It was already dark outside, and it was time for the inner courtyard to hold the lights.

The big maids Fufeng and Fuliu waited anxiously outside for a long time before they mustered up the courage and asked He Ningxin in the house, "Madam, are you waiting for dinner?" ”

After Jian Feiyang went out on an errand, the remaining people in the Zhenguo Mansion had dinner together every day, and their relationship with each other became more and more harmonious.

He Ningxin sat up on the bed and instructed the outside, "Come in and freshen up for me." Her face was tense, and He Ningxin felt a very dark feeling.

Fu Liu hurriedly came in to help He Ningxin freshen up, and Fu Feng went to the courtyard next to him to greet Jian Feizhen, Jian Feiyi, Lu Zhenxian and Zheng E, who were waiting there, saying that Mrs. would come over immediately, and ordered the people in the kitchen to start serving.

He Ningxin rarely arrives late. This time it was late, and several people waiting in the dining room were a little uneasy, and asked Fufeng: "What's wrong with my sister-in-law?" Is something wrong? ”

Jian Feizhen remembered that He Ningxin went to the Anjun Palace, and asked again: "But it has something to do with the eldest brother?" "Knowing that King Anjun is Jian Feiyang's friend, the relationship between Princess Anjun and He Ningxin is actually average.

Fufeng smiled and saluted, "Let the second son worry." Madame is fine, but Miss Song Qi in the Mansion of Huiguo brought a gift back to Mrs. from a foreign trustee, and Mrs. remembered that Miss Song Qi had gone so far alone, and she felt a little sad. ”

The people in the house knew that Song Liangyu, the seventh girl of the Huiguo Mansion, had a very personal relationship with He Ningxin, so they were relieved.

While Fu Feng was talking, He Ningxin happened to take Fu Liu and a few mothers-in-law into the dining room.

Hearing Fufeng's nonsense without blinking, He Ningxin glanced at her with a smile, sat down on the top, nodded to the people waiting in the room with a smile, and said, "There are some private matters that have made you wait for a long time." ”

The people in the house hurriedly gave He Ningxin a gift. It's kind of a greeting.

The mother-in-law outside has already served the dishes in turn.

He Ningxin had something on her mind, so she just casually ate some fried bacon with garlic sprouts, and also ate a few chopsticks and crab roe tofu. I can't eat it.

Zheng E said with a smile: "The eldest brother loves to eat fried bacon with garlic sprouts, and my sister-in-law didn't eat it before, but now she eats it." ”÷

He Ningxin looked at the fried bacon with garlic sprouts still piled up in her bowl. He also smiled and said, "People's tastes change." He joked to Zheng E: "Just talk about you." Originally, I loved to eat sour and spicy tastes, but after marrying in Taizhou Mansion, Southeast Province, I have to learn to eat the sweet seafood there......" While saying, He Ningxin's mood suddenly brightened.

Wu Wending served as the prefect of Taizhou Mansion in Southeast Province, but it was only a day's journey from Cheng'an Mansion in Southeast Province.

He Ningxin wanted to help Jian Feiyang, but she always planned before acting. Never shoot blindly. The most important thing now is to understand the real situation in Cheng'an Mansion in detail before making a decision.

Wu Wending's position, not up or down, not far or close, knocked on some news of Cheng'an Mansion from him, but it was just right.

It was like a big stone hanging in her heart had finally come to fruition, and He Ningxin's mood suddenly rose, and she frequently served vegetables to several younger sisters during the banquet, and told a few jokes. Make the usually quiet dinner table lively.

A few girls didn't think it was any different, but Jian Feizhen could see that He Ningxin was a little unusual.

After dinner, Jian Feizhen made a special trip to He Ningxin's Zhiyuan Pavilion and asked her, "If sister-in-law has something on her mind." Why don't you say it, let's see it together? ”

Of course, He Ningxin would not tell anyone about Jian Feiyang. - The more people who know, the greater the danger to him.

"The second brother has a heart. Seeing the gift brought back by Miss Song Qi today, I was a little happy for a while. He Ningxin blushed slightly, looking a little embarrassed.

Jian Feizhen didn't seem to believe it, and asked again: "Really?" ”

He Ningxin smiled and said lightly, "Why did I lie to you?" ”

Jian Feizhen was embarrassed to change it now, and said busily: "Sister-in-law misunderstood." It's not that I can't trust my sister-in-law, but I just think that if there is trouble, although Feizhen is not talented, he can still be an errand runner. I will definitely not miss my sister-in-law's business. ”

He Ningxin smiled, served tea to the guests, and said: "Second brother study well, when the golden autumn competition, being admitted to the top three is also a great thing for the glory of the ancestors." Encouraged Jian Feizhen.

Jian Feizhen was relieved, exchanged a few words with He Ningxin, and then left.

He Ningxin sat in the room for a while, picked up Wu Wending's letter and looked at it again, thinking that because of Zheng E's marriage, she and Wu Wending also had some things to discuss, so she quietly asked about the situation of several state capitals near Taizhou Mansion at the end of the letter, including Cheng'an Mansion, saying that she wanted to help Zheng E inquire about the customs and habits of people in the vicinity, so as to prepare in advance.

After the letter to Wu Wending was sent, He Ningxin asked people to send a post to the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion, saying that she was going to visit Mrs. Marquis Ningyuan, and by the way, she would see Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian's two children.

Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian lived in Mrs. Tai's Cining Courtyard. Now that Mrs. Tai has suffered a stroke, the Cining Courtyard is controlled by Liu Menghan.

After receiving He Ningxin's post, Pei Shufen, the wife of the Marquis of Ningyuan, sent someone to Cining Courtyard and instructed Aunt Liu: "Aunt Tai clean up, there are guests coming tomorrow." ”

Liu Menghan is very worried about this He Ningxin. She sent several groups of people to explore the way in the Zhenguo Mansion, trying to find out who the old marquis said was the "last move", but they all fell into the mud and went into the sea and disappeared. It made Liu Menghan a little wary of He Ningxin.

Seeing He Ningxin's post, how did Liu Menghan look at it, how did he think that he was coming for himself, he was a little weak-hearted, so he said to Pei Shufen's mother-in-law: "Mrs. Tai is sick and doesn't see any outsiders." The two children also have something to do with Ming'er, so they replied to the Duchess of Zhenguo, and we understood her kindness. "It can be regarded as a graceful intention according to He Ningxin's intention.

Pei Shufen's mother-in-law couldn't, so she took the post back and reported to Pei Shufen, saying, "Madam, Aunt Liu said that Ming'er will not see the guest." ”

Pei Shufen smiled, took the post in person, came to Cining Courtyard, and said to Liu Menghan: "Aunt Liu doesn't know, this duchess of Zhenguo is the friendly mother of our son and the township." Even if you can stop her from seeing Mrs. Tai, you can't stop her from seeing her two children. ”

Liu Menghan raised his eyebrows and said, "It's just a friendly mother, not a mother." What are you fussing about? ”

Pei Shufen was a little worried. Liu Menghan still entrusted her with her blessing. can enter the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion and have a name. Otherwise, she was outside, and it was just an outer room where anyone could step on a few feet. Now Liu Menghan has entered the house. I used myself as a dish. - No matter how senior she is, she is just a side house. What is like himself, but the media is marrying. There is a lady of the Marquis of Ning Yuan?!

"Aunt Liu, you can't say that. There is still an exchange of courtesies between the noble mansions. It's normal human affection. The Zhenguo Mansion is the confidant of the saint's close ministers, I advise Aunt Liu to take it easy, don't offend all our Hou Ye's friends in the court. Pei Shufen said idly, while taking a handkerchief and imprinting it on the corner of his mouth.

Speaking of Ningyuan Hou Chu Huajin, Liu Menghan had no choice but to suppress a little arrogance. - She also pointed to the name of Ning Yuanhou to control it.

"Alright, I'll go reply. Ming'er congratulated the Duchess of Zhenguo on her visit. Pei Shufen saw that Liu Menghan was speechless, and there was an indescribable joy in her heart. For the first time. She had a sense of having the upper hand.

Liu Menghan's face became gloomy, and he watched Pei Shufen staggering out of the house and going to Cining Courtyard.

Aunt Jiang saw Liu Menghan's face and asked softly, "Auntie, do you want the slave to help you solve it?" Or take back the right to host the feed? ”

Liu Menghan smiled bitterly and said to Aunt Jiang: "Don't say this again, be careful to laugh off other people's big teeth." - How can there be a concubine in the noble mansion? After taking her, Hou Ye will marry another stepfamily. No matter what, the power of the inner court of the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion to preside over the middle feed will not reach me. ”

Aunt Jiang sighed. said in a low voice: "If the old marquis is here, he will definitely not be willing to let my aunt suffer such a grievance." ”

Speaking of the old marquis, Liu Menghan had tears in his eyes again, and hurriedly walked a few steps. I went into the house.

When Pei Shufen returned to Zhonglan Courtyard, she asked people to reply to the post and asked He Ningxin to come to the door tomorrow.

On the second day, He Ningxin deliberately picked out a short shirt with Tianshui Bi right, embroidered a circle of beautiful green calyx plum blossoms on the placket and the edge, and tied a Tianshui Bi eight-panel skirt below, and embroidered magnolia flowers of different styles from large to small under the skirt. The head is covered with a bun of clouds, and the left and right temples are each hairpinned with a red gold silk inlaid with blue sapphire mutton fat jade and a bird pattern, which is both luxurious and pure. She only wore a pearl earplug the size of a lotus seed on her ears, which made her earlobes more round and full.

He Ningxin took a look in the mirror, and took out the green jade necklace that Mrs. Xu gave her for many generations when she was in the He family and put it on.

Fu Liu took the mirror with satisfaction to help He Ningxin look at the back of her head, and said, "Madame has so many rare jewelry, and she always refuses to wear it." Take out two of them today, and they'll all have straight eyes. ”

He Ningxin deliberately picked out these expensive clothes and jewelry today, of course, it was for good intentions.

"Just your mouth. If you get used to it in the future and talk nonsense outside, don't say I can't protect you. He Ningxin looked at Fuliu, who was looking at her in the mirror and smiled, and said angrily.

Fu Liu's words were brisk, and he didn't take the people of Ningyuan's Marquis Mansion in his eyes at all, and said, "There is a lady covering me." Who ate the bear's heart and leopard gall and dared to provoke me? ”

He Ningxin stood up with a smile and didn't speak, went straight out of the house, took a few maids and women, and went out to the second door.

When she came to the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion, Marquis Ningyuan's wife Pei Shufen was waiting at the second gate, greeted He Ningxin with a smile, and asked, "Madame, do you want to go to the upper room to sit first, or go directly to see Mrs. Tai?" ”

He Ningxin also returned the salute and said, "Mrs. Tai has been sick for so long, I should have come to see it a long time ago." But the housework in the house is complicated, and there is a younger sister who is in a hurry to leave the cabinet when she is out of filial piety, so she has been delayed until now and made a special trip to visit her old man's house. ”

When Pei Shufen heard this, she wanted to go directly to Cining Courtyard to see Mrs. Tai, so she led He Ningxin to Cining Courtyard, and said as she walked: "Now in our Cining Courtyard, Aunt Liu is in charge. - Madame knows who this Aunt Liu is, right? ”

He Ningxin nodded with a smile and said, "That day, Mrs. Tai visited the thatched house three times and made a special trip to ask Aunt Liu to come over, but it was a good story in the capital. ”

Pei Shufen smiled and said, "Exactly." The two of them are also destined. If it weren't for Aunt Liu entering the door, our Mrs. Tai would not have been able to find such a suitable person to serve. ”

The two talked and came all the way to Cining Temple.

As soon as He Ningxin entered the yard, she saw the extra poplar trees in the yard.

Thinking of the words from Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian's personal mother last time, He Ningxin had a bottom in her heart, and asked Pei Shufen with a smile: "These trees look like they were newly planted?" ”

Pei Shufen nodded, took He Ningxin up the steps of the upper room of Cining Courtyard, and said, "Aunt Liu said that there were poplars in this house before, and they were cut down with bad feng shui, so they were planted again. ”

He Ningxin let out a low "ah" and said to Pei Shufen: "What kind of feng shui gentleman do you have in your house?" It can't be a trick, right? ”

Pei Shufen was stunned for a moment and asked He Ningxin: "Why did the Duchess of Zhenguo say this?" ”

He Ningxin turned around and pointed to the courtyard and said, "This courtyard is boxy, like a 'mouth' word." If you plant trees in the yard, isn't it just adding the word 'wood' to your mouth and becoming 'sleepy'? - People are trapped, can this feng shui be good? ”

Pei Shufen's heart moved, and she said perfunctorily: "The Duchess of Zhenguo is really well-informed, but I don't know this. "Skip the matter lightly.

He Ningxin was just casually talking about it, deliberately responding to the people of the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion.

When He Ningxin was still Pei Shufan, Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian were helped by Pei Shufen's elixir and cured the problem of Yang pollen allergy.

When Pei Shufan was reborn as He Ningxin, she knew where Pei Shufen's prescriptions and herbs came from, and she was also worried that Pei Shufen's three-legged cat-like ability would leave hidden dangers for Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian. So at that time, while Chu Qianyi and Chu Qianqian were still in the Pei family, every time Mrs. Xia took her two children to the Zhenguo Mansion as a guest, He Ningxin used the herbs and grains that she had warmed in the blessed land of Sumeru to secretly replenish the two children's bodies.

Now it seems that there is no bad situation, and the warm tonic herbs that I want to make myself still play a certain role.

Some people know one thing, but they don't know the other, they deliberately planted poplars in this yard, He Ningxin didn't have to think about it, he knew what those people were thinking.

Since poplar pollen has no fatal effect on the two children, it is better to keep these poplar trees here, lest these people fail to make a plan and have other strategies.

In addition, Jian Feiyang is in trouble now, He Ningxin is difficult to hang on to the two ends, and it is likely that he will have to leave the Zhenguo Mansion for a while, so he can only entrust it to the four female fans of the cavalry, so pay more attention.

As for Liu Menghan and Pei Shufen, He Ningxin also made a special trip to find something to do for them, so as not to keep their eyes on the two children.

Others may not know, but He Ningxin knows that Liu Menghan is also related to Xie Yun of Cheng'an Mansion in Southeast Province.
