56. Divergence (II)
Wan Ning walked in angrily and said loudly to Shu Ning, "What does this have to do with you?" Why are you meddling?! ”
Shu Ning saw a few maid rings outside probing their brains there, and hurriedly walked over to drive them away, and ordered Fang Ning's personal maid ring to guard the door before closing the door again and walking back.
Wan Ning also knew that she was reckless, but her face was a little uncomfortable, so she asked in a stiff voice, "Why don't you answer?" Why did you come over and say these strange things to Sister Fang Ning? ”
Shuning said angrily: "Second sister is strange, right? How old is the big sister, and you let her get along with the boys? And I'm not allowed to stop it. ”
Wan Ning said: "Why do you want to stop it? Is it because Fan Jinchun's family background is worse? It's so unfair! How can you tear the two of them apart because of these little things? ”
"It's hard to say whether Fan Jinchun is interesting to the big sister, and how can these be considered trivial?"
"How is it not a trivial matter? I know there is a gap between them, but as long as I say a few more kind words for them in front of my grandmother, she has always been obedient to me......"
"Even if my grandmother says yes, what about next year's draft? Do you really want to find someone to replace the big sister? The eldest uncle will never agree! ”
"Then it's good to report your illness and disability, and you can settle it with some money."
"You take her to the streets every day, and then say that she is disabled or seriously ill? Who would believe it? ”
"Even if you really want to be drafted, you can use your hands and feet to buy the people in the palace, or directly ask the Queen Mother for help and let Sister Fang Ning lose the election!" Wan Ning pointed to Fang Ning's face and said to Shu Ning, "If you look at her appearance, you know that this kind of thing can be done easily. And the Queen Mother has always liked me, and the fifth elder brother is easy to talk to, as long as they say a few words, Sister Fang Ning will be brushed off. ”
Fang Ning's face was already red and dripping blood.
Shu Ning believes that Wan Ning can do this for the time being: "Even if you can really marry on your own, how can you guarantee that your grandmother and eldest uncle and aunt will give up the opportunity to marry the Gaomen clan and promise to marry the eldest daughter to the son of a teahouse owner?" ”
"I said it, just go and ask grandma ......"
"Is the second sister so sure that grandmother will sacrifice the interests of the family because she loves you? Wouldn't the second sister think that you are too confident in what you say? ”
The question is back to square one, and the key to everything is whether the elders in the mansion will allow this kind of thing to happen. Shuning didn't think they would say yes. Back then, my father was only because of his lower official position, and he suffered a lot of white eyes at home, and after he was promoted to the fifth grade, the situation improved, but he is still not taken seriously. How could such a snobbish family give up the opportunity to use another daughter to enter into a political marriage to consolidate its own power because of the words of one daughter?
She turned her head and asked Fang Ning directly: "Big sister, this is your business, you can make up your mind, are you really willing to go against the wishes of your grandmother, eldest uncle and eldest aunt, and be with Fan Jinchun?" ”
Fang Ning moved her lips: "I...... I actually ......"
Wan Ning couldn't stand it anymore: "Enough! Third sister, I originally thought you were a pretty good person, but who knew that I was blind. You are either jealous of my favor like Yuan Ning, so you do everything possible to say bad things about me and bad things for me! Or, they are poisoned by feudal ideology, and they take those so-called big truths to beat the bad guys of mandarin ducks! ”
She stretched out her fingers, "You get out!" We don't want to deal with you anymore, and you don't want to confuse Sister Fang Ning again! ”
Shuning raised her eyebrows and left without saying a word. Do you think I'm willing to take care of you? I was kind enough to stop you from harming others, but you actually said that I beat the mandarin ducks? The old lady is still not happy to pay attention to you!
Shuning forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart, and strode on the way back to Huaiyuan, and the maids and servants she met along the way were all silent. As soon as she thought that when she went out just now, she heard Wanning say to Fang Ning, "Sister, don't worry, everything has me", and the fire in her heart became even stronger.
Damn it! You don't know what to do! I'm going to let you get into trouble!!
===================I'm a dividing line ===================== an hour later
After calming down, Shuning began to reflect on her actions. For a long time, she has been a cold bylooker about what Wanning did, and she also had the intention of watching the show, why was she so uncalm today and quarreled with Wanning?
In fact, she also thought that her temperament was very different from Wanning, and sooner or later there would be disagreements and conflicts, but she didn't expect this kind of thing to come so quickly, and the cause was Fang Ning, who had rarely interacted before.
She believes that in this kind of feudal society, girls with a background like them, if they have a choice, should choose a marriage that is easily recognized by the public as much as possible. Because life is not easy, why bother to make trouble for yourself? If Fang Ning likes and interacts with a teenager with the same portal, or at least a similar identity background, then she will not pay attention to this matter at all. She admits that her thinking on this issue is too realistic and too feudal.
But in Wanning's view, the meaning of love itself is greater than everything, as long as it is true love, identity, status, and status are not a problem, as long as she goes out in person, those emperors, queen mothers, mothers, old ladies or something will definitely let them go. Even if they don't want to let go, they can achieve a love story that cries ghosts and gods for future generations to admire. Therefore, in her opinion, Shuning, who forced Fang Ning to give up her innocent "first love" for practical reasons, is the demon who beat the mandarin ducks.
Shuning is not used to Wanning's casualness and rashness, and Wanning thinks that Shuning is questioning her own abilities, which is an affront to her dignity.
Shuning stroked the corners of her forehead and felt a little headache. In fact, living as flamboyant and dazzling as Wanning, without scruples, she is not envious in her heart, but her reason has always limited her, making her subconsciously choose a low-key way of survival, in her heart, she still yearns for that kind of unfettered life. But in the matter of Fang Ning, Wan Ning took her sister on a road full of thorns, which made her feel extremely disappointed and angry, which is the root cause of her loss of control, right?
But this also made her finally understand that her outlook on life and time travel is completely different from Wanning, and she doesn't need to envy others at all, from now on, she just needs to live her own life. As for Wanning, let her go.
As soon as she thought about it, she immediately recalled what she had said in Fang Ning's room. Didn't wear a bang, did you? Didn't say anything that didn't fit the "characteristics of the times", did you? Didn't say anything that didn't match her current age of identity, did you? It's terrible, what she said seems to be a little too mature, but looking at Wanning's angry and smoking expression at that time, she shouldn't be suspicious, right?
She began to feel a little uneasy, and regretted that she had not been able to control her temper.
In the evening, Tong called her into his room and asked her, "Did you quarrel with your second sister this morning?" ”
How would Mom know? That's right, there were so many people outside the room at that time, there must have been rumors.
She lowered her head and whispered: "Eniang, my daughter knows that she is wrong, and she will never do it again in the future." ”
"My silly boy, doesn't E-Niang know about you?" Tong touched her head gently, "You have always been a quiet person, if someone didn't provoke you, how could you have a quarrel with someone?" That Wanning is a troublemaker, she must have done something wrong, so you can't help but quarrel with her, right? ”
Shuning pursed her lips and didn't make a sound.
Tong continued: "It's better to stay away from her in the future, she is now the meat on the tip of your grandmother's heart, and if you fall out with her, you will suffer, so you must be careful in everything in the future." ”
Shuning nodded, then nestled to her mother's side, and quietly listened to the movement in her stomach for a while, before she smiled and said, "The baby is moving again, is E-Niang working hard today?" ”
"It's nothing, it's just that I'm a little tired, and I've been a little dizzy since I started this morning, thinking it's because I didn't sleep well at night."
"E-niang, don't be tired, those clothes should be done slowly, or call the second sister-in-law Suyun and them to help."
"There are a lot of things to do with the second sister-in-law, Su Yun Eniang still can't believe it, after all, these are going to be sent to Pumpkin Hutong, Eniang wants to make autumn and winter clothes before leaving Beijing."
"It's a pity that I haven't been able to craft yet, otherwise I can help you."
"Silly boy, you are already very capable, why don't you help Eniang make my brother's clothes? Presumably he won't dislike your craft. ”
"E-Niang ......"
"Huh?"
"How can you laugh at me."
"Hehe......"
=================== I am a very gentle and affectionate dividing line =====================
Since then, Shuning has almost never seen Fang Ning Wanning, except for going to each room twice in the morning and evening to say goodbye, she only walks around the water pavilion classroom and her own courtyard, and only occasionally visits Zhou Yinlan or visits the bookstore. Once when she went to the bookstore next door to the teahouse, she once met Wanning and Fang Ning going to the tearoom, Wanning pretended not to see her, Fang Ning was a little embarrassed, so she could only nod hurriedly, and she didn't care.
Wan Ning has completely stopped going to class, and seems to have found a new way to have fun. Every day, only Shu Ning and Yuan Ning sat in the water pavilion, facing Mr. Cai's sighing face while practicing what he taught. Yuan Ning wanted to say something to Shu Ning a few times, but in the end she didn't say it.
Fang Ning's matter was still slightly revealed to her mother, and after Tong's silence, she told her daughter not to tell anyone else. The next day, after greeting the old lady, she had a brief conversation with Nala on the way back to the hospital, and never spoke of it again.
And the eldest aunt, Nala, did not condemn the actions of her daughter and concubine, as if she had never heard of anything. Just a few days later, she suggested to the old lady that Fang Ning would be drafted next year, and she should ask an experienced grandmother who is familiar with rules and etiquette to teach her a special lesson, so as not to lose the face of the family at that time. The old lady agreed. As a result, Fang Ning's free time was soon occupied by new tutorials, and she couldn't go out for tea again.
Time passed day by day, and gradually, the 100-day national mourning was about to expire. At this time, new news came from the Zhou family, Zhou Wenshan was awarded the Anhui Grain Road, and the whole family would go to work soon.
