Chapter 21

"Miss San, Aunt Lin sent someone to tell you that the old lady has come back, and now she is outside the gate of the house. I want you to go there to meet her." A woman in a dark blue skirt and a tunic The servant girl raised her voice and said outside the courtyard gate.

Ning Erlan gave a pause for the hand holding the eggshell.Mrs. Ning is back?Why didn't she hear any news before?

But soon she thought about the relationship. "Xinyue, take out my snowflake pleated dress, I'm going to meet grandma."

"Yes." Xinyue helped Ning Erlan back to the room, and quickly changed her dress.As Mrs. Ning's direct granddaughter, if she doesn't go out to greet her, she will definitely be called unfilial.

As soon as Ning Erlan passed through a circular arch, and was about to reach the gate, she heard a burst of joyful laughter.Can't help but slow down his pace.

"The old lady doesn't know how much our Sixth Young Master misses you while you're away. Look, you just came back, and the Sixth Young Master hurried out and said that he was going to meet grandma. Unlike some people, Thinking that I have a high status, I put some out some of them all day long, and I don’t know who to show them to?” Aunt Lin gently supported Mrs. Ning, and walked slowly in the corridor.

Ning Erlan couldn't help but put on a cold chuckle on her face, Aunt Lin really did a perfect job of stabbing someone in the back.

"Granddaughter pays respects to grandmother." Ning Erlan hurriedly walked up to Mrs. Ning and her party when everyone was about to turn the corner.

Before everyone could react, she made a big gift.

Seeing that it was Ning Erlan who came, Mrs. Ning's face, which was still talking and laughing, instantly sank.The tone is neither cold nor light.Anyone could see that the grandmother didn't like her at all. "Get up."

Ning Erlan also raised her head and saw a man who was not too tall, wearing a dark red long skirt trimmed with black silk thread and embroidered with larks as the bottom.A middle-aged woman with silver hair neatly tied high behind her head.There are many silver hairpins and jade hairpins inserted in the black and white hair, among which an emerald gemstone on the dark green hairband used to fix the bun is the most dazzling.

Mrs. Ning thought she was a beauty when she was young, but her peach blossom eyes had begun to droop slightly due to her age, her nose was small and straight, and her lips had begun to grow lip lines, which made her look quite old.It's just that there is an unpleasant arrogance and disdain in a pair of cloudy eyes.

"Grandmother doesn't know, Lan'er has been looking forward to your return these days. A few days ago, my granddaughter went to Wenshan Temple to pray for grandmother and father. When she came back, the abbot also handed the safety talisman to Lan'er, saying that it was a must." I want to bring it back to you." Ning Erlan didn't seem to notice Old Madam Ning's attitude at all, she stepped forward to take her hand affectionately, and handed the peace talisman to her hand.

Seeing the peace talisman in her hand, Madam Ning's calm expression improved slightly.But the gloomy look in his eyes still hasn't disappeared.

Aunt Lin, who deliberately dressed dignifiedly today, sneered inwardly when she saw that Mrs. Ning did not accept Ning Erlan's affection. "Miss San is really arrogant. Just now the old lady said she wanted to take a good look at you, but she didn't expect to see you... I don't know if Miss San has something to delay her."

"Third sister, you are wrong. Grandmother's fasting is also for our Ning family. How could you delay welcoming grandma because of your own affairs?" Ning Shuangyu looked quite sunny and soft wearing a dress today. She wore a bright orange long dress with a belt of the same color around her waist. At this moment, she had a slightly reproachful expression on her face, and she really looked like a good sister who cared about her younger sister.

"Erlan knows it's wrong." There was no need to argue, Ning Erlan just bowed her head and admitted her mistake.

Seeing her being trained, Aunt Lin and Ning Shuangyu couldn't tell how happy they were.But before their smiles settled down, Ning Erlan went on to say: "Grandmother doesn't know something. After returning from the temple that day, Lan'er wanted to copy a few scriptures for you every day before Chen Shi. Today Lan'er Er was still copying scriptures, when a servant girl came to report that grandma was back, Lan Er hurried over."

"Are you really copying scriptures?" Hearing what Ning Er said, Madam Ning's eyes lit up, and a smile gradually appeared on her face.

Ning Erlan pouted her pink lips and stomped her feet in dissatisfaction. "Grandmother doesn't believe Lan'er, so Lan'er asked Xinyue to bring those copied scriptures." As she said that, she turned around and told Xinyue.

"Okay, you solid-eyed child, when did grandma say she doesn't believe you?"

Madam Ning held Ning Erlan's hand and patted it lightly, with a kind smile on her face.

Aunt Lin and Ning Shuangyu tightened their hands holding the embroidered handkerchief, hating in their hearts, this Ning Erlan can speak!
"Aunt Lin, if there is such a thing in the future, you should just tell me earlier, otherwise I can't bear it if there is any misunderstanding." Ning Erlan had a smile on her face, looking at the stiff smile on her lips. Aunt Lin said softly.

Aunt Lin's pupils shrank, but she hurriedly lowered her head when Mrs. Ning looked at her, and said, "Miss San doesn't know something, because I want to welcome the old lady back, so I forgot about it. Everyone knows about it, but it seems that Miss San is the only one who doesn't know about it."

Aunt Lin said this to tell Mrs. Ning that everyone in the Ning Mansion knew about her coming back, but Ning Erlan was the only one who didn't know. It can only be said that she never let Ning Erlan go. in the eyes.

"Aunt Lin knows that my yard is not popular anymore. I'm afraid there are not many maids going to such a remote place. If people outside see it, I'm afraid they can't believe it's the daughter of the Ning family. Yard."

Madam Ning looked at Rou Rou in surprise, but the words she said were like sharp knives, making Aunt Lin speechless.According to her understanding of this granddaughter, this is simply impossible!

Something must have happened during this period that she didn't know about!

"Okay, the old woman's head hurts from the two of you chattering. My old woman is going back to the yard to rest. You can come back at dinner time." Mrs. Ning is returning to her own yard now. On the way, the rest of the aunts had been sent back to their respective courtyards to rest by her.

The whole family will have dinner together later.

"Granddaughter is sending grandmother home."

"Didn't you finish copying your Buddhist scriptures? Go back and continue copying, and come back later." Mrs. Ning took her hand from Ning Erlan's and let Ning Shuangyu and Aunt Lin support it. Go to the yard by yourself.

"The granddaughter is leaving."

Ning Erlan looked at the backs of several people who disappeared.

There is no doubt that Mrs. Ning will support Aunt Lin. Now they are surrounded by enemies in this mansion.

Ning Erlan suddenly blamed God, why didn't she be reborn in a common people's home, fighting all day, really boring.

She felt less and less like herself.

"Miss, you don't need to worry about it. Maybe the old lady just came back and she's a little tired." Seeing that Ning Erlan didn't speak, she felt sad for the cold attitude of old lady Ning after she was happy.

"Miss is the daughter of the Ning family, and no one can get past this."

"You girl, what are you thinking about, well, let's go to mother's side first."

Ning Erlan looked at the blue sky, she was still complaining foolishly here, she thought she should be content with God giving her a chance to live.What's more, she has good friends here with her sister, mother, and Xinyue who treat her sincerely.

"Miss San, Miss San, the old lady told you to go to the main hall immediately."

As soon as she passed a garden, a little maid ran towards her.

"You have no rules, you are not afraid of collision, Miss San." Xinyue scolded dissatisfiedly.

"What's so urgent?" It wasn't long before they separated, and what happened again?
"Your maidservant doesn't know, Miss San should go over quickly. This maidservant will leave." The maidservant left after speaking.

Ning Erlan frowned, and walked towards the main hall with Xinyue.

"Old madam, don't be angry, what if you get angry and ruin your body?"

"Shameless thing, shameless thing!"

Ning Erlan who had just walked outside the main hall door heard a burst of chaotic voices from inside the house.

Without changing his face, he walked into the house. "Granddaughter greets grandmother."

With a "bang", before Ning Erlan got up, a jade porcelain cup fell to her feet, and the tea in the cup splashed everywhere.

"I don't know who made grandma so angry?" Ning Erlan raised her head slowly, and glanced at the people in the room with her eyes. Ning Shuangyu sat beside the old lady, her hand still The old lady patted her chest lightly, giving her comfort.

And standing next to the old lady was a woman in her thirties, wearing a long skirt with dark red stripes and a dark appearance. She was born with delicate features, and her eyes were small but full of energy.Her long hair was combed into hanging clouds, and there was a set of suet jade accessories pinned between her hair, which looked luxurious.

Come to think of it, she should be the aunt, Aunt Ming who came back from fasting with the old lady.

And under it stood a very delicate woman with a small oval face, her facial features were not picky, and her skin was fair and moist.The skirt with a hundred birds and flowers on her body made her face even more beautiful.This is the third aunt, Aunt Zhao.

In the end, this should be Aunt Mei, the oiran that Ning Guoan redeemed from the brothel two years ago. Aunt Mei was born with the capital of an oiran, and her winking eyes can seduce a man's soul.

There are three other young ladies who haven't come yet, I don't know if they got orders or what.

"You shameless bastard, why do you want me, an old lady, to tell you what you did in front of everyone?" The old lady was so angry that her entire face was flushed.

"If Lan'er did something wrong, Lan'er would be willing to be punished, but up to now, Lan'er still doesn't know what grandma is talking about."

"Okay, okay! You still have to quibble, I must teach you a lesson today, so that you can remember it long."
