Entering the courtyard, Zhang Yiyang was a little clearer, it seems that this ninth peak, Shen Gongdang really rarely comes back, because the courtyard is full of withered yellow plants, and there is a thick layer of dust on the stone table that no one cleans.

But this made Zhang Yiyang very puzzled, what about Ying Ning's mother? If there was a hostess in the house, at least this situation would not occur! However, Ying Ning didn't mention it, and he couldn't take the initiative to ask, but he couldn't hide the speculation in his heart.

Ying Ning took Zhang Yiyang into an incense hall in the courtyard, which was cleaned quite clean, at least the bedding was neatly placed under the incense hall, and the ground was also clean and clean, without a trace of dust.

"Miss, is that you?"

Hearing someone enter, an old voice came from the room, and it sounded like that of an old woman.

Ying Ning's face warmed, and she replied softly: "It's me!"

"Where did you go, girl, and you haven't been back for so long!"

I saw an old woman with white hair, groping through the door and coming out, yes, she was blind and her eyes were closed.

Ying Ning put the little snowball on the ground, stepped forward and grabbed the old woman named Qing Niang, and let the other party grab Ying Ning's palms with his calloused hands.

"Qingniang, Ning'er has worried you, but it's okay, aren't I coming back?"

Ying Ning said, she saw Qing Niang nodding kindly, and then raised her face and looked at Zhang Yiyang who was standing behind her, of course, she could only rely on her feelings to find it.

"You brought back a friend?" asked the young lady in surprise.

Ying Ning looked back at Zhang Yiyang with a smile on her face and said, "That's right! He saved Ning'er's life several times!"

Hearing this, Qing Niang was excited, but she was excited not because he had saved her a few times, but because she said, "Are you in danger of your life?"

Ying Ning smiled playfully, "No, didn't I say it, it was Yi Yang who saved me!"

Qingniang waved her hand at Zhang Yiyang and motioned for him to come over.

From the beginning to the present, Zhang Yiyang has been looking at this woman, it can be said that she is not like an ordinary subordinate, of course, it does not mean that she cares about Yingning, but that Zhang Yiyang feels that this old woman is not simple.

Then he approached Qingniang and said respectfully: "Hello Qingniang!"

Qingniang stretched out her calloused hands and grabbed Zhang Yiyang's face, seeing the other party's trembling palms, Zhang Yiyang did not dodge, and leaned his head forward.

Qing Niang's old hands scratched Zhang Yiyang's face painfully, and it didn't stop until it touched his forehead to his chin. Then he smiled slightly and said, "Childe, the old woman is offended!"

"Qingniang, you're welcome!"

Zhang Yiyang put the little enemy on the ground and let him play with the snowball.

Qing Niang looked in the direction of the enemy and asked suspiciously, "Is this child yours?"

Zhang Yiyang just wanted to explain, but Ying Ning said: "This kid is called Enemy Rong is ours!"

Hearing this, Zhang Yiyang was instantly embarrassed, but Ying Ning's face turned red, and he hurriedly explained: "No...... We saved this child!"

Qingniang nodded, then looked at Zhang Yiyang and said: "The son's good conduct can indeed be regarded as a righteous gentleman, the old lady has thanked the son for saving the young lady's life!"

Zhang Yiyang smiled slightly, "Miss Yingning is chivalrous and tender, what she is doing is just pushing the boat down the river!"

Qing Niang nodded, and said to Ying Ning: "Miss, you have been gone for a few days, hurry up and incense Madame first!

Ying Ning nodded obediently, helped Qing Niang all the way into the incense hall, and then knelt on the futon at the desk, there was only one tablet on the desk, engraved with the position of Mrs. Shen Gong, Zhang Yiyang knew that his guess was right, Ying Ning never mentioned her mother, obviously her mother died or left, and now the former is right.

Ying Ning knelt on the futon, her expression was gloomy, and she whispered, "The mother's daughter's unfilial piety worries you, but it's okay, the daughter is back safely, don't worry about it!"

At this time, Qingniang handed over a handful of burning sandalwood, and Ying Ning took it and inserted it into the incense burner three times.

After the worship, Zhang Yiyang saw that Qingniang took out a rag again and began to gently wipe the incense case and the ground, even more carefully than a clear-eyed person.

Ying Ning came to the door, picked up the little snowball, and then pulled the enemy Rong to Zhang Yiyang's side, and said, "Let's go! Go to my room!"

Zhang Yiyang picked up the enemy on the ground and followed behind Ying Ning, who walked in front of herself, and then said: "My mother died of illness a few years ago, and my father has not come back all year round, so few people will come to this ninth peak, and even if they come, they will all come to mock me, and the subordinates have gradually left one after another, so there is no one else in this ninth peak except for Qingniang and the two guards outside the door!"

Zhang Yiyang nodded, but he was very curious, how could the eldest lady of the dignified family be ridiculed? But Ying Ning quickly gave an answer.

Ying Ning continued: "Although my father is the patriarch of a clan, he has a little wife, and he married in the second year after his mother's death, and lived in the council hall, according to them, the reason why my mother died was because she knew that her father had a stepmother outside, so she became ill and died of illness for a long time!"

Zhang Yiyang knew that they in Ying Ning's mouth must be those brothers and sisters who are not afraid of big things when they see the excitement, looking at this Xiao Suo's back, for some reason, he feels a little distressed about this stupid girl.

Pushing open the door, Zhang Yiyang took the enemy Rong into the room with Ying Ning, Ying Ning's room was cleaned neatly and neatly, and the pink gauze tent on the bedside made people recognize at a glance that this was a woman's boudoir.

Ying Ning filled a pot of water, poured a glass for Zhang Yiyang, and then took a cup of snowball on the table.

Zhang Yiyang looked at the little enemy, and handed over the glass of water that Ying Ning had poured over, this little guy obviously has a super learning ability, although he can't speak, but he learns from Zhang Yiyang's appearance, and he also picks up the water cup and pours it into his mouth, but he uses too much force, and the water in the cup spills down his chin.

This appearance made Ying Ning and Zhang Yiyang can't help but laugh.

"Miss, you're back!"

At this moment, a woman's voice came from outside the door, but Ying Ning frowned slightly when she heard the voice.

Zhang Yiyang looked out of the door suspiciously, because when the two of them first entered the door, they did not close the door.

Outside the door, a woman of the same age as Ying Ning stood at the door, poking her head out, looking at Ying Ning and Zhang Yiyang in the room with a surprised face, this woman was born a little similar to Ying Ning, but it is completely two temperaments, although Ying Ning is heroic, she is simple and cute, and this woman is wearing heavy makeup, and her clothes are even more exposed, with a fake and charming attitude.
