Aunt Zhou chewed for a moment, looked Ning Jiao up and down, and said: "I have worked you all these years, and you have not learned the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting of other noble girls, plus Jiao'er is naturally beautiful, it is not impossible to be a princess." ”

Aunt Zhou's father is a small member, and she is not a concubine.

But they all blame this outsider for burying her "talent".

Even if she was born in a six-rank official family, she would not be reduced to the point of being a concubine.

After giving birth to her daughter, her heart was higher than the sky, so she openly and secretly trained her daughter to learn the six arts. Even if she didn't have enough money in the past two years, she didn't save a cent of her husband's money for Ning Jiao.

Moreover, Ning Jiao was born with a good voice, and even Mr. praised her appearance while playing and singing.

It strengthened Aunt Zhou's conceited mind.

Ning Jiao tilted her head and thought for a while: "What about Ning Shu?" Am I better than her? ”

"It's-"

Aunt Zhou hesitated for a moment and continued: "Don't say it, I really didn't recognize her today." I haven't seen a real place for more than two years, and it's becoming more and more tempting. ”

Recalling Ning Shu's angry figure and her charming and enchanting charm, Aunt Zhou sighed: "But you can't just look at the surface, especially the nobles of Tianheng, they all pay attention to a 'chaste and virtuous lady', if you really want to talk about it, Jiao'er has an advantage." ”

She is a perfect example in her own right.

Regardless of appearance and posture, there are really too many good Mrs. Shangning.

But she didn't receive a good teaching of the six arts since she was a child, but she was taught a lot of tricks by her mother, so that she could easily become the only aunt in Ning Mansion back then.

She doesn't want her daughter to follow her unbearable old path, even if she is not the princess of the palace, she must be an official housewife.

Aunt Zhou's eyes were full of calculations, and she suddenly remembered the matter of the mutton fat jade bracelet, and suddenly looked directly at Ning Jiao and said:

"Now that you have entered the Ning Mansion, you have to cheer up your spirits, no matter how close you are to Ning Shu, you must also have what she has. The matter of the mutton fat jade bracelet is a lesson when you buy it, and you must listen to your aunt in the future. ”

Ning Jiao was a little heartbroken, and the bracelet was returned to its original owner, but they did barely win back a little trust because of the bracelet. I couldn't help but nod, "yes, I see." In the future, I will listen to my aunt. ”

……

Ning Shu's small courtyard is her own name, called Qinglan Pavilion.

Ning Jiao thought that she would call an orchid garden, Yixiangju or something, but this made her look up.

There is not much difference in the size of the whole courtyard like the one she is in, Ning Jiao thought about comparison, and said with a smile: "Sister, the air here smells fresh, and the location is elegant and quiet, which is very suitable for my sister." ”

The words were from the bottom of his heart, and his smile was sincere.

Ning Shu looked at Ning Jiao puzzled, "If you like it, I can exchange it with you." ”

"No, no." Ning Jiao hurriedly excused herself: "I just need to have a room to live in, how dare I rob my sister?" ”

Ning Shu frowned.

She also had a place to live.

This courtyard was chosen because it was a little farther away from the main entrance, so it was clean. It's not about liking it or not.

At this time, Ning Jiao's words aroused her disgust, and she said: "So let it be given to my sister, and my sister doesn't want it, so is my courtyard good or not?" ”

Ning Jiao shook her head and nodded again, "My sister is naturally good." ”

"Later, I will go and tell my mother that tomorrow you and I will exchange courtyards."

Ning Shu said it categorically, which really frightened Ning Jiao.

She had just returned to the house the second day, and she had to change courtyards with Ning Shu, and others would think that she was jealous at a glance, and they knew that they had robbed her daughter.

It's obviously a set of close, why did it become a hot face sticking to her cold fart-stock?

Ning Jiao's tears flowed out, she pursed her lower lip coquettishly, and said in a choked voice: "Sister, don't be like this, so I will feel that my sister is so strange, we used to be sisters who talked about everything, how can we-"

Ning Shu was speechless.

Crying so easily?

"Since you call me my sister, you should know that I used to be like this. If you want to say that there is nothing to talk about – is it better to say that there is nothing to say? ”

Ning Jiao's face alternated blue and red, and when she was in Ning Mansion in the past, Ning Shu didn't say much. But the relationship with her only sister is still good.

At least in the eyes of others, she is the only one who can say a few more words to Ning Shu.

She thought that it would be effortless to restore their former relationship, who would have wanted to slap their face so unexpectedly.

sighed resentfully, and there were tears rolling in Ning Jiao's eyes.

"Sister, sister knows that you still hate your aunt, but I have already explained yesterday that I was too sick at that time to resist at all, and I still have sequelae to this day."

Ning Shu looked at Ning Jiao with a gloomy expression, and sighed that the girl in front of her was really a thick skin she had never seen in her two lives.

She suddenly stretched out her hand, grabbed Ning Jiao's wrist, and gently touched Ning Jiao's pulse with her fingertips.

Ning Jiao withdrew her hand in shock, "Sister, what are you doing?" ”

"Sister don't remember? I have studied some medical science with my grandfather since I was a child, and since my sister said that she is sick, why don't I come and take a look at my sister's body? ”

"No, I don't have to." Ning Jiao was so frightened that she forgot to cry.

Turning his wrist, his eyes flickered, and he secretly regretted how he forgot this stubble.

Ning Shu smiled faintly, got up and patted the back of Ning Jiao's hand, "Since my sister is sick, I thought she wanted to find me to prescribe a few medicines for my sister." ”

"I have these little problems, how dare I bother my sister." Ning Jiao didn't know the depth of Ning Shu's medical skills, but the movement of her hand just now was extremely fast, and she guessed that Ning Shu hadn't detected anything at all.

"By the way, my aunt is still dizzy, my sister will go back first, so I won't bother my sister."

Ning Jiao got up and left, Ning Shu followed her hurried footsteps and asked with concern, "Oh? Haven't woken up after being dizzy for so long? Didn't my mother call a doctor? Let's go, I'll take a look with you. ”

Ning Shu's words made Ning Jiao's footsteps stop in place, and it was not okay to continue walking, nor was it to stay.

"No, I mean my aunt is awake, I'll go back and see if my aunt needs me. Sister, let's stay, right? ”

A smile that seemed to be a smile appeared on Ning Shu's indifferent expression, and she stared at Ning Jiao fixedly for a long time, and saw that her scalp was slightly numb, so she smiled and said, "In this case, then I won't give it away." ”

Ning Jiao didn't dare to say any more polite words, she found that Ning Shu's every sentence had a deep meaning, for fear that her slip of the tongue would continue to make her unable to get off the stage.

Urgently turned around and walked out of Qinglan Pavilion.

Ning Shu looked at Ning Jiao's back as she fled in a hurry, and suddenly chuckled.

Long Shan also snorted on the side.

Outside, the sound of shredded footsteps came back. Ning Shu thought that Ning Jiao was going and returned, and greeted her with a smile.

Who knew that it was not Ning Jiao who saw it, but the maid in Mrs. Ning's courtyard.

She said in a hurry: "Girl, Madame is looking for you to go to the main hall, saying that there is a holy decree from the palace." ”

"Divine decree? For me? ”
