32, respect for the elder (3)
Hearing Chu Ning's words, Ming instantly grinned: "Awards, awards." ”
Chuning's rice spoon slapped it on the head: "That sentence is not a compliment to you!" ”
After all, you still have to eat. Chu Ning hooked his finger towards Ming Instant: "Let's go, take you to find something to eat!" ”
Chu Ning transferred to the front hall used to meet guests in the mansion, Princess Ankang was directing her servants to clean carefully, in the middle of the front hall, there was a shelf more than one person high, covered with a round thing with silk cloth, and I could only see a general shape, but I didn't know what it was. It seems that the house is going to have a grand reception recently.
When Princess Ankang saw Chu Ning, she felt angry in her heart, and shouted at her from afar: "People who have nothing serious to do, don't be like a wooden stake, the pestle is in the way." ”
Chu Ning was not annoyed at all, and walked straight to Princess Ankang: "Second uncle, I really don't have anything serious to do. I heard that the second aunt took special care of Tingfengyuan's diet today, and I couldn't help it, so I wanted to come and see if there was anything I could help and give the second aunt a hand. ”
She called "Second Aunt" as kindly as she could, but Princess Ankang didn't scold her as casually as before. In addition to the relationship between Mrs. Su, Chu Ning went to the palace for a turn, obviously going in with the charge of death, but it was personally sent back by the people around the queen, and she couldn't help but give the face of the royal family.
Princess Ankang forcibly endured the evil anger in her heart: "You came just in time, I'm busy here." I was thinking about which room to use to put the cups, plates and dishes that entertain the guests, and I was reluctant to let you do any heavy work, so you just went and watched the people and cleaned the back room. ”
Chu Ning smiled without any flaws, answered "yes", and walked to the back.
As soon as he pushed open the door of the ear room, a puff of dust rushed in front of him, choking people and coughing. This ear room is full of old furniture that has not been used for a long time, and what Princess Ankang said soundly sounded was actually a job that she couldn't do at all.
Chu Ning looked around and happened to see that Kong Niang, who accompanied the three sisters to the Meng family a few days ago, walked over with a broom made of wicker in her hand.
"Mama Kong," Chu Ning greeted him, "Second aunt asked me to clean this ear room, you help me transfer a few people, and then help me make a basin of water." ”
Kong Niang is also an old man next to Princess Ankang, how can she not understand what the princess means. She was about to find an excuse to refuse, when Chu Ning suddenly shouted: "Oops, there are mice!" Hurry up, shoot it! ”
She snatched the broom from Kong Niang's hand and swung it to the ground. In the corner of the wall, there was really a small black shadow, and it fled quickly.
Kong Niang sensed that something was wrong, and was about to stop it, but Chu Ning's broom had already slammed on the door. The doorpiece of the ear room had long since rotted, and when she slapped it so hard, it actually fell, and the hula smashed on the ground, and the dust raised almost obscured the vision.
Chu Ning put on a heroic and fearless appearance, and said to Kong Niang in a righteous manner: "Mama, go and call someone, I'll stop it." The place of hospitality is the face of the family, if in front of the guests, there are rats jumping out, what kind of system? ”
She rushed in with her broom, and the table was lifted, and the shelves were pushed, and the contents of the pile were scattered all over the floor, and the bones rolled all the way to the antechamber. The fragile ones, smashed all over the ground.
Princess Ankang heard the voice in the front hall, and hurried over with someone, only to see a piece of dust, and before she could see anything clearly, there was a small fluffy thing that "squeaked" into her clothes.
"Quick...... Get it out for me. Princess Ankang was so frightened that her face changed, and she hurriedly called out.
Chu Ning returned the broom in his hand to the stunned Kong Niang, and added oil and vinegar to the voice: "The rat ran to the second aunt, go and help, it's terrible to be bitten by the rat, and you want to catch the epidemic." ”
Kong Niang was already stunned and didn't know what to do. Chu Ning reminded "kindly" on the side: "Why don't you take off your clothes and catch it." ”
"Yes, yes......" Kong Niang threw a broom and stepped forward to pull Princess Ankang's clothes.
"No......" Princess Ankang tried to stop her, but her voice was drowned out in the chaos and no one could hear her. Just heard the sound of "stabbing", Princess Ankang's coat was torn open, revealing the colorful clothes inside.
In the chaos, the small black figure poked its head out of Princess Ankang's cuffs.
"The rats are here!" Chu Ning picked up the broom and slapped it without hesitation, slapping it on Princess Ankang's face.
Servants rushed up and hurriedly went to support Princess Ankang. Her newly-made clothes had been torn to pieces, the old gray hangers hung on her ears, the delicate makeup had long been spent, and there were blood marks scratched by two rat paws on her face.
This time, Chu Ning stood far away, until she saw a little mouse, poking her head out of the window, her cheeks bulging with food, and nodding to her again and again, she said in a brisk tone: "Second aunt, this ear room should be cleaned well, you see, it's all rats." ”
Princess Ankang was so angry that she trembled, but she didn't care about Chu Ning, pushed the maidservant girl beside her, and scolded: "Stupid thing, what are you doing around me?" Why don't you go and see if something important in the front hall has been broken! ”
