Before entering the door, Old Madam Su's curse had already come out: "...... Whoever sees that my old bones are not pleasing to the eye, they will directly carry me and throw me into the mass grave, everyone is clean! Don't think about it, I can't see it, what kind of poisonous insects in the mountains are also common? Is this deliberately someone luring the worm when I'm blind? Old confused? When I used these worms to make medicine, you were still something......"
Old Madam Su has always had a violent temper, and no one dares to provoke him on weekdays, and it is too late to serve carefully. Su Yu stood with his hands hanging on the side, his face was very ugly, he originally wanted to persuade the old lady to relax, but it was just some beast pets to keep and play, and then go to buy or hunt some to make up for it, but he didn't expect that this would anger the old lady, and even he scolded him for a bloody head.
Chu Ning walked around to the old lady Su and saw a shriveled beast pet corpse on the ground, all of which were specially gifted by the guests who had recently visited the mansion to know the old lady's preferences. Ah Sheng was lying at the feet of Mrs. Su, and there were also a few scars on his body, which must have been left by the worm when he broke out of his body, but fortunately, his life was worry-free.
"It's a pity," Chu Ning naturally stood behind Mrs. Su and raised her hand to beat her shoulder: "These little things must also be the first time to come to Minshan, grandmother's kindness, let them have a chance to grow up, who would have thought that such a thing would happen." Fortunately, people like Ah Sheng who have been following their grandmother for a long time already have some skills, and the little bug can't do anything about them, which is really lucky. β
In the morning, people from all walks of life took turns to persuade them, but the more they talked about the old lady, the more angry they became, and it was not until this time that they finally heard a pleasant sentence. Old Madam Su snorted from her nostrils, and her anger calmed down a little.
Princess Ankang raised her eyes and saw Chu Ning standing here alive, not as surprised as Kong Niang, her eyes flashed and flashed, she lowered her head and said: "That's right, our family comes to this Minshan every year, but there has never been such a thing, maybe it's really like what the old lady said, someone deliberately attracted the worms, and maybe even these worms were deliberately released, although I don't know about refining medicine and making Gu, but I have been married for more than ten years, and I have heard of it, this kind of worm is not so easy to catch, this thing is strange, It's time to look it up. β
Chu Ning was like a mirror in her heart, Princess Ankang saw that she appeared here safe and sound, and she expected that last night's arrangement failed to hurt the people in that courtyard, so she changed her tactics on the fly. Maybe at this time, he had quietly asked someone to put the medicinal powder or the container containing the worms somewhere, and just waited for the old lady to search for it, and planted it on their heads. Whether it's Chu Ning or Jia Yin, you can calculate one by one.
She smiled innocently at Princess Ankang: "What the second aunt said is that this matter should be investigated carefully, especially if you live close to your grandmother, you are the most suspicious." β
If you want to say who can choke Princess Ankang with a word, only Chu Ning has this ability, the second aunt, she can figure it out, and the implication is that there is still a little second aunt waiting on the side. A concubine like Lan Ji is naturally not qualified to be called a second aunt by her, and everyone present knows who she is talking about.
Princess Ankang has been a lot calmer than before since she went through the good news, and when she heard Chu Ning say this, her face changed a few times, and she finally pressed it down, so she just continued the second half of the sentence and said: "Don't say anything suspicious, the old lady's business, no matter how small it is, it's a big thing, there are so many people from the Hengzhi family, just search them one by one, whoever looks through and finds things that shouldn't be there, don't quibble and deny it." β
Kong Niang left for a moment in the crowd, and came back quietly, taking advantage of the unpreparedness to give Princess Ankang a look that only the two of them understood. Chu Ning caught a glimpse of it with his spare eyes, but deliberately pretended not to see it. Before she went out, she had already left a letter for Jiayin, telling her to be careful of the people around Princess Ankang.
Su Yu was noisy about these things early in the morning, and he came to Minshan for a day, not only failed to arrange for Xu Yan to go into the mountain to recuperate, but even the practice of every morning was interrupted, and he was full of anger and had no way to vent. β
Princess Ankang seemed to deliberately avoid suspicion, and only asked some rough people to search, for the sake of safety, even the old lady's room was checked, and the whole courtyard looked down, and found nothing abnormal.
With a bit of sarcasm, she glanced at Chu Ning and said: "Those who live close to the old lady have all been searched, and those who live far away should also take a look." β
Unable to allow Chu Ning to say the word "no", Su Yu had already walked out with his feet raised, and a group of people walked towards the mountain in a majestic manner. Chu Ning waited at the end, and when Lan Ji passed by her, she lowered her voice and said, "You kid, why bother screaming with her again, she must have already arranged it, just waiting to pinch you." β
Chu Ning didn't know that Princess Ankang was such a person, but it was inconvenient to tell Lan Ji in detail, so he responded with a slight smile: "I have a clear conscience, what are you afraid of?" β
Lan Ji just thought she was still a child, shook her head and sighed, and walked in front of her.
The mountain road was rugged and difficult, so Su Yu walked briskly in front, but the rest of the ladies walked very slowly. Before they reached the higher courtyard, someone had already seen some small black insects on the ground from time to time, which were the same bugs that had appeared the night before. This insect likes darkness and is rarely seen during the day, and when it hears the footsteps of people, it hurriedly burrows into the soil.
Princess Ankang only said lukewarmly: "There are so many bugs here for no reason, it's really abnormal, could it be something special to bring these little bugs over?" β
Su Yu's face became more and more gloomy, and he walked up to the courtyard in a few steps, kicked open the door, and showed Jiayin's panicked face, and hurriedly hid something in his sleeve.
Princess Ankang looked proud, stepped forward and grabbed Jiayin's wrist, although Jiayin's technique is not weak, but her body is still a weak woman, she was injured a while ago, and she was pulled by Princess Ankang like this, and she couldn't break free for a while.
Lan Ji and the others, who were walking behind, thought that Jiayin would definitely be planted this time, and they were holding on to see the excitement, waiting to see how Su Yu would judge. Unexpectedly, Jiayin suddenly knelt down at Su Yu, and tears fell from her eyes: "Su Lang, please, save Yao'er, a few worms have entered her ......"
A "Su Lang", the superior has been divided, just by virtue of this title, Su Yu will not move her easily. Princess Ankang's face also changed: "Yao'er, which Yao'er?" Why is Yao'er here with you? β
Jiayin was not very beautiful, but he had a dusty temperament that did not eat the fireworks of the world, his complexion was extremely white, and his neck was slender like a swan. I really just wanted to say a few words to her, but I didn't expect this kind of little insect to crawl in suddenly, Yao'er didn't pay attention, and was bitten by a few insects, and the insects are a habit that doesn't let go when they see flesh and blood......"
She wiped a handful of tears: "I quickly sealed her heart, burned wormwood, and just drove the worms out of the door, and you came in." β
Su Yu and Princess Ankang were so shocked by this sudden change that they didn't know what to say, Jiayin suddenly turned around and fell down in front of Ankang: "Yao'er's life experience, I originally wanted to hide it forever, she can have a princess as a mother, it is really better than me, a person from an unknown source." But her life is in danger now, and I can't help it, I was thinking about using my own blood to renew Yao'er's life, as long as Yao'er gets better, I won't mention this matter again, it's still a secret forever, and before I can do it, you just happened to come in......"
The hand she was holding tightly by Princess Ankang suddenly loosened, and a boning knife fell out of her cuff, and Jiayin hid her face and sobbed: "Su Lang, I'm sorry, I should have told you earlier, I am Yao'er's mother, I promised others, I can't mention this matter again in this life, but I can't watch Yao'er being sucked dry by the worm, my heart blood can save her......"
Only Chu Ning knew that all this was not a coincidence, but a means used by Jiayin to deal with Princess Ankang's planting. Jiayin's natural weak appearance, combined with his seamless acting skills, the effect is really good, what should be said and what should not be said is grasped just right, this gift from Su Li is really good.
Su Yu's face turned pale, and when she turned around, she gave Princess Ankang a slap, so strong that she knocked her to the ground, and stepped forward and kicked her in the abdomen. Jiayin said that he promised others not to talk about Su Jinyao's life experience, and did not name him, but if he thought about it, he knew that except for Princess Ankang, the fake biological mother, who would go out of his way to seal Jiayin's mouth for this matter.
He had some father-daughter affection for Su Jinyao, and after he was angry, he immediately went to the inner room to see this daughter. Princess Ankang and Jiayin couldn't move, so Lan Ji had to follow in and help hand over the handkerchief.
Chu Ning only stepped forward at this time, and when his eyes looked at Jiayin, he happened to meet her gaze.
Jiayin's face still had pitiful tears, but a smile flashed in her eyes, and she raised her head slightly at Chu Ning, signaling that everything was under control.
Chu Ning was about to leave, but Jiayin stood up and grabbed Chu Ning's arm: "You can also go in and see Yao'er, after all, you are also cousins, and I don't know who else can accompany her at this time." β
At the angle that no one could see, Jia Yin lowered his voice and said to Chu Ning: "With more strength, you can drive that woman out of Suyin's house forever, you are very suitable for the old lady's eyes, I heard that there is also a Chongguang prince who is not bad for you, Su Lang can't help you, and the Suyin family will be me and yours in the future." β
