Peerless little medical concubine

Chapter 167
The old lady snorted softly, thinking that even though Ning Erlan is the princess now, she is still her grandmother, so naturally she dared not refute her face too much.

"It's good that your mother knows how to be filial. If not, then it's just me, an old woman, who has helped the white-eyed wolf for nothing all these years!"

Grandma, you are really old-fashioned!
"Then..." Ning Erlan glanced at everyone present one by one. "Erlan must properly track down those villains who sneak around! So as not to tarnish my grandmother's reputation."

The old lady also knew her relationship with this granddaughter. If Ning Erlan really wanted to thank her, she would not believe it herself. Hearing what she said, she couldn't help frowning. "What do you mean by that?"

"It's nothing, Erlan found that the amount of dowry recorded in this brochure is quite different from what was moved out today, so you have to check carefully to see where the rest of the dowry went!" Words are completely appropriate to describe this family. She has seen the amount of her mother's dowry, but there are so many things, but a full third is missing. This is simply unforgivable!

If according to what the old lady said, these things have been kept in the small library and no one has touched them, then why are there so many less for no reason?And they are all relatively expensive, these people really know how to pick them!

"Your mother has married so many mothers in the Ning Mansion. It must be a loss to reward servants on weekdays. Well, where do you find these things?" A look of unnaturalness flashed across the old lady's face. , but still a strong way.

"Yes, Miss San, it's normal for some of these things to be worn out. Everyone is a family, so why bother to be so serious..." Aunt Ming also said in a slightly embarrassing way. If she took it out, she would be absolutely reluctant!

"That's right, third sister, you've been tired for so long today, so it's not too late to talk about anything tomorrow." Ning Qingyan had a gentle smile on her face, looking like a good big sister.

Ning Erlan nodded in agreement, but frowned slightly puzzled and looked at Xiaotu and said, "Xiaotu, would the princess and godmother usually reward the maidservant with the famous painting of spring outing left during the founding and prosperity of the country? "

The little rabbit blinked and shook his head. "Miss, why would the concubine reward the servants with these things? Normally, they would only reward some silver taels and hairpin ornaments. Even if such precious things are rewarded, the servants would not dare to accept them."

"Father, Mother has been in poor health since she gave birth to her daughter, so she stays in the water pavilion all year round and sees no outsiders. Naturally, there will not be too many courtesies. It can be seen that the few things in this booklet are made by those greedy people. The person who is here is ignorant. No matter how late it is today, my daughter will have to find out about this matter."

Ning Guoan felt that his back was drenched with sweat, how could he not understand that Ning Erlan had to figure out the dowry even if he didn't sleep today.

"How much is this missing? Otherwise, don't think about it anymore. Daddy asked grandma to make up 2 taels of silver for you. It's getting late, and Miss Little Rabbit has to go back to return to Princess Zhongyong. I'm afraid it will be too late." It's not convenient."

Although taking out 2 taels of silver still feels very heartbreaking, but compared to the one-third of the dowry, this 2 taels is not enough at all!
"What your father said is, let's do it this way. It's getting late and I'm tired, so I'll let Nanny Fang take the 2 taels to your yard tomorrow."

Really good at reckoning!One-third of the dowry is at least 10 taels!Want to send someone if you want 2 taels?There is nothing so cheap in this world, since they don't treat her as a family member, why should she be merciful.

"Daddy, what Xiaotu said is reasonable. Naturally, my daughter won't let you and grandma bear such infamy."

"Okay, then tell me, how do you want to check?"

Standing aside, Ning Qingyan understood that no matter what Ning Erlan said today, she would get this matter to the end.He hurriedly whispered some instructions to the maid next to him, and the maid understood, quietly left and walked towards Ning Qingyan's yard.

"Since we want to investigate, we must conduct a thorough investigation. Some of these things are large and can't be put anywhere. Then search the mansion. If those things are still in the mansion, we can definitely find them." After Ning Erlan finished speaking, she put the booklet in Xinyue's hand.

"Xinyue, Xinchen, you guys have to look carefully in a while, you can't let go of any corner."

"Miss, don't worry, the servant will save it."

"Mother, for the sake of fairness, let Nanny Fang follow along." Ning Guoan knew that if the matter reached this point, if he forcibly interrupted it, he would appear guilty of guilt, so he could only bite the bullet and agree to Ning Erlan's actions. Over the years, he no longer remembers how many things he took from Wen's dowry, and even if they find them later, he can use the excuse that Wen's gave them to him back then, and it won't be so ugly.

The old lady couldn't speak at this time, she naturally asked Nanny Fang to follow, and she could help out at critical times.

"You go, remember, so you have to take a good look!

"Yes, the old slave knows."

A few people took the booklets and began to search. Ning Erlan and the others also came to the main hall to sit and wait. Xiaotu followed her all the time, and had no intention of leaving at all.It seems that he will not leave until the result is obtained.

After two full hours, Xinyue and the others came back.

Coincidentally, the old lady passed out when they walked in.

"Old madam, what's the matter with you, old madam? Hurry up and ask for a doctor..." Aunt Ming was the first to react, she stepped forward to support the old madam and exclaimed.

"Grandmother thinks it's been a long day of exhaustion, and she can't bear it anymore. Hurry up and help the old lady back to rest." The servant who was waiting on the side stepped forward to help the old lady up, and walked to the Cixuanyuan. Aunt Ming He also followed the old lady out.Just now Ning Qingyan whispered in her ear, telling her to leave with the old lady.The rest is up to her to handle.

"Miss, the servants are back." Xinchen still had an angry look on her face, one can imagine what they all saw.

"Go ahead."

"Miss, this servant found in Aunt Ming's room an eight-treasure jade beaded emerald moon mirror in Madam's dowry, and a set of suet jade hairpin pinched with gold thread, and..." Xinchen and Xinyue spoke slowly. Counting carefully, there are dozens of things found in Aunt Ming's yard!Even Ning Guoan was surprised, and couldn't help wondering how those things got into Aunt Ming's yard.

"Father, my son still has some things to do, so I'll leave first." Ning Desheng secretly thought it was bad, and wanted to leave with his tail between his legs, but how could Ning Erlan let him go so easily?

"The servant also found a pair of dragon and phoenix gold bracelets and a pair of Donghai South Pearl earrings in the room of the young master's concubine..." Xinchen looked at Ning Desheng who was about to slip away and snorted softly, deliberately raising his voice road.

Although the things found in Ning Desheng's yard are not as many as those found in Aunt Ming's, there are definitely a lot!
Ning Guoan was even more puzzled, why did Ning Desheng have so many yards!

"As for the eldest lady...there is no yard." Xinchen recounted all the things she found in the old lady's and Ning Guoan's yards.Among the few people, the old lady has the most things hidden in the yard, and they are all the most valuable!
Ning Desheng watched Ning Guoan's increasingly ugly face, and Ning Erlan's calm eyes, which looked like a storm was brewing, and swallowed.At the same time, he was also curious, how could there be nothing in Ning Qingyan's yard, he remembered that Ning Qingyan was going to go after taking out the eight-treasure mirror, how could he be in Aunt Ming's yard now?
Regarding what Xinyue and Xinchen said, Mother Fang naturally had no objections at all, because there are indeed so many things in the yard!

"Hehe, since the things are found, it is inconvenient for the servants to stay here for a long time. After the servants go back, they will report back to the princess, saying that the princess has found your things, and the slaves will come back tomorrow to see if they have moved back to the princess. I went to the yard." Xiaotu knew that the matter was almost over here, and she didn't intend to stay any longer, after all, she had to go back to return to Princess Zhongyong.

Ning Erlan's lips curled into a slight smile. "I'm really sorry for your trouble today, and I'd like to send Xiaotu out of the house for me."

"Yes."

After Ning Erlan finished speaking, she turned her gaze to Ning Desheng. "Father, look at those things. Excluding what your mother gave you and grandma, do you want to..."

Ning Guoan breathed a sigh of relief, and swallowed back the anger in his stomach. "Tomorrow, someone will come to repair the yard, so let's move there tonight! Save you from thinking about it!"

Ning Erlan stood up and gave a slight blessing. "What Daddy said is that you can feel at ease only if you keep things under your nose. It's getting late, so my daughter will go back to Jingyu Academy to tidy up, and my daughter will leave."

"Third Sister..." As soon as she walked out of the main hall, Ning Qingyan chased after her, with a look of guilt on her face.

Ning Erlan stopped in her tracks and turned around, "Isn't Eldest Sister going back to the courtyard to rest?"

"Third Sister, Big Brother and Aunt Ming were also confused for a moment. Those things were given to them by their grandmother. They didn't know that those were Madam's dowry. If they knew, they would never want it..." Looking at Ning Qing's smokey face Looking at her face, she was afraid of being misunderstood by herself and eager to defend herself, so she couldn't help but marvel at her acting skills.Thinking about it, she wanted to hate herself to death, but now she was able to stand in front of her so calmly and say such... against her will, this Ning Qingyan's morality is indeed much deeper than that of Ning Shuangyu.

"What did the elder sister say, and how could I blame anyone? It seems that the grandmother saw that the things were good and sent them to the yard of Aunt Ming and elder brother. I am afraid that the grandmother herself does not remember this matter." Right..." Ning Erlan passed the word "remember" across her lips lightly, and there was a touch of sarcasm in her eyes.
