Chapter 116
This young man was about fourteen or fifteen years old, with handsome features, but he gave off a warm feeling.When he saw Shuning, he was also taken aback for a moment.

Shu Ning felt that he looked familiar, she seemed to have seen him somewhere, glanced at the purse with dragon patterns embroidered on his waist, and guessed if it was the fifth elder brother.So he has come back from Mount Wutai?Do you still not give up on Wanning?
She saluted respectfully and asked, "I don't know who you are? Why are you standing in front of the second sister's courtyard?" The young man smiled slightly: "So you are Shuning. I'm Yinqi." He turned his head away , looked at the courtyard and said: "I came to see your second sister, but I don't know if she would like to see me."

It really is him, after several months in the Buddhist monastery, can't he still forget Wanning?She sighed again: The charm of Qingchuan women is really invincible, although it is only effective for a certain person.

Shu Ning said: "This is the inner courtyard. The fifth elder brother is here as a guest. Why is he not accompanied by anyone? Now that he is here, why not let someone inform him? Don't the maids in the courtyard know how to treat guests?" ?”

The Fifth Elder Brother was startled, and said with a wry smile: "I used to come here a lot, and the people here are used to it? Wanning didn't like me bringing many people here, so I left them all at the front. In the past, she used to be a maid Don't let me in, I don't dare to make a mistake. However, there was a maid just now who seemed to be new and didn't know about it, so she informed me. I hope Wanning won't blame her."

Just as they were talking, Yuehe came out from the inside, she was a little surprised to see Shuning, but she still respectfully said to the fifth elder brother: "Miss, please come in and serve tea." After sweeping everything away, he hurriedly nodded to Shuning, and hurried in.

Yuehe took a look at Shuning and lowered her eyes: "Why is the third girl here? But do you want to go into the house to look for our girl?" Shuning smiled: "I came to talk to the eldest sister, I just passed by. You go back .” Then he turned and walked towards Fang Ning’s room.

Fang Ning is in good spirits, just finished reciting scriptures, and she is interested in chatting a few words.The material that Shu Ning brought over was light blue plain silk, elegant and dense, Fang Ning liked it very much, thanked her with a smile and accepted it.The two sisters talked about some family issues, and Shu Ning also mentioned an interesting story that happened when she was teaching her two younger brothers homework, which made Fang Ning chuckle endlessly.

Shu Ning took the opportunity and said, "If big sister is free, come and help me discipline those two monkeys, right? They are getting more and more naughty now, and I really can't handle it by myself." Fang Ning stopped laughing , hesitated for a while, and then said: "I don't know what to do..." Shuning hurriedly said: "Sister, you don't have to do anything, just chant scriptures to them, and they don't dare to move rashly. Those two monkeys, the last Can watch people order!" Fang Ning smiled.

Shu Ning knew that there was no need to rush this kind of thing, so she could only proceed step by step, so she slowly talked about other funny things, and did not bring up this request again.Fang Ning also gradually relaxed, talking about her biological mother's recent improvement in her condition, she is almost better, with a smile on her face for a long time.

As he was talking, he saw the girl who was waiting on Fang Ning lead Qiao Yun in.Shuning and Fangning asked her to sit down, Qiaoyun waved her hands and said: "I'm just here to pass on a message, the girls don't need to be busy." Then she said to Shuning: "Our girl invites the third girl to come over, the fifth elder brother and the second master Shun They're all there."

Shu Ning was stunned, and asked: "Why did the second brother come here? The second sister has a foreigner, why did you invite me over?" Qiao Yun said: "It is the girl who asked someone to go back to the eldest wife and invite the second master Shun to accompany her Yes, it is said that there are male guests coming, and it is not appropriate for her to be accompanied by a girl. Now that there are two masters, it is said that three girls are invited to go, so the number of men and women is equal."

What's the point?It's not a blind date, why should there be an equal number of men and women?
Wait a minute, Wanning isn't making up an idea, is she?Alarm bells rang in Shuning's heart.She has not forgotten Wanning's weird words and deeds back then, if she wanted to make a match between herself and a member of the digital army, she would definitely avoid it and be afraid of it.What's more, the number who is here now has Wanning in his heart?

Just as she was thinking about it, Fang Ning said beside her: "Since the second sister invites you to go, you should go. Elder sister Qiaoyun will come to invite you in person, so don't let her go in vain." A sentence made Qiaoyun smile: "Thank you, big girl, for your kindness."

Shuning smiled and said: "It's just to pass on a message, why bother to come here in person? Just ask a little girl to tell me." Qiaoyun paused, then smiled: "I'm a girl, so naturally I want to be a girl What should be done. Miss San, hurry up, I'm afraid there will be a lot of waiting there."

Shu Ning asked: "Is it just me? Why don't you invite Big Sister?" Qiao Yun was at a loss for words, Fang Yun said indifferently: "I never go when her friends come, and I'm tired now, you just go and play Come on, don't worry about me." Shuning said with a smile: "Could it be that big sister wants to drive me away? In fact, I came to deliver the materials, but I took my sister to gossip and take a lot of breath. There are many things at home. If I go back It's too late, Erniang is going to talk about me again. Now that it's getting late, I should go back." Then she turned her head and said to Qiaoyun with a smile: "Sister Qiaoyun came to invite her, she shouldn't have declined, It's just that I'm going back to the house to help Er Niang with the housework, please help me to confess to the second sister."

Qiao Yun persuaded her a few words, seeing that although Shu Ning was smiling, she didn't intend to change her mind, so she didn't force her anymore.In her opinion, it was a strange thing for her own girl to invite someone to accompany her when she received the prince, but it was even weirder to invite another girl to go.

As soon as Qiao Yun left, Shu Ning bid farewell to Fang Ning, who knew what she knew and didn't say anything.Shuning went to the main room, intending to greet Mrs. Nala, but the maid said that the eldest lady had gone to the girl's room, so she didn't say much, and went back to her own courtyard by detouring the backyard.

In the evening, Wanning came to Huaiyuan and complained that she was specially invited not to go, Shuning said: "There are a lot of things at home, I always have to share my worries for my mother. Besides, you have a male guest, please ask the second brother to accompany you." Seriously, what am I going to do?" Wanning murmured, and said after half a day: "They are all young people of about the same age, you should know more friends, and the fifth elder brother is very nice, good-looking, He is also kind, if you get along with him more, you will definitely feel very happy. What's more, no matter how many things there are at home, it's okay to procrastinate, why do you have to finish them in such a short time?"

Shu Ning said: "Second elder sister is confused. If she is a child of a similar family, she can still be called a friend. The fifth elder brother is the prince of the Tian family. I am not like you. I have played together since childhood. How can I make friends casually?" You see, the fourth elder brother is closely related to our family. My elder brother has known him for several years. We occasionally see him on weekdays, and he never forgets the etiquette of emperors and ministers. What's more, we are not as good now as we were when we were young, so it's better to avoid suspicion. "She paused, and glanced at Wanning: "Speaking of which, didn't Second Sister treat Fifth Elder Brother honestly in the past? Why didn't she invite him in today, and even said such a bunch of good things, Second Sister changed Got an idea?"

Wanning bit her lips and said, "Didn't you say that you shouldn't be too rude to the prince? I reflected on it. He is actually really nice, but I don't like it, so I was very polite to him. But in the face of When he saw him, I really didn't know what to say, it was so embarrassing. If it wasn't for Yue He, I would just sit in a daze. Later, Er Niang and the second brother came, and the scene was more beautiful. But I have a different idea It hasn't changed, but it's more sensible than before, and it's not so tough. My mother also said that I should have done this a long time ago."

Shuning smiled slightly: "Actually, our mother-in-law is very powerful and capable. We should learn more from them. Second sister, do you know that my mother-in-law taught me a lot of tricks about managing servants today, so I know It turns out that there is so much knowledge here.”

When Wanning heard this, she became interested, and asked what the trick was.Shu Ning picked out some simple things and told her, and then slowly changed the topic to gossip about the servants at home.Wanning talked with great interest, and completely forgot the original purpose of coming.

Shu Ning's heartfelt voice: My mother personally taught Huyou Dafa to practice for the first time, a success! ! !

=========================== I am the dividing line in early November ===================== ======
The days that followed were passed in a mediocre manner.Duanning has been living in Fangshan and has not come back, but Wang Er came back and reported that the house has been renovated and is replanting flowers and plants.Because a suitable gardener has been found locally, there is no need to hire someone from Beijing, and the budgetary cost has been greatly reduced.The saved money was suggested by Duan Ning, and with the consent of Zhang Bao and Tong Shi, glass windows were installed in several rooms over there.

Mrs. Liu is already packing her and her son's luggage, and is about to move there first.

Tong Shi found out that his son was doing well, and he was also working hard in studying and practicing martial arts, so he was relieved.She once quietly sent someone to inquire about that Horqin Taiji. It is said that the wedding between his eldest Gege and Prince Kang's son is over, and that Taiji is planning to take his little daughter back to the grassland, and even reported the date, but The eldest daughter repeatedly persuaded them to stay in Beijing for the winter before leaving.Taiji was a little moved at first, but at this time the palace had issued an order to hold a special farewell banquet for him, and said that the emperor would send them off in person, so he had no choice but to decline the elder daughter's kindness and prepare to leave according to the original plan .

Tong was relieved to learn the exact day when Taiji's family left Beijing.In order to avoid meeting Na Danzhu and Yucheng, classmates of the Imperial College again, Duanning has already missed an autumn archery performance under the guise of being sick, but if he misses the exam every ten days, it will be bad. God knows what the professors will do. how to think?Tong's sent someone to Fangshan to deliver a letter to Duanning, asking him to come back to Beijing one day before the exam.

I thought the matter would be over now, but unexpectedly, Na Danzhu and Yucheng came to the Earl's Mansion again the day before that Horqin Taiji left Beijing.The gatekeeper had already received Tong's orders, and only said that the fourth young master was not at home, and welcomed them to the flower hall, and then urgently reported to Huaiyuan.

Both Zhang Bao and Tong Shi happened to be away, and they went to Tong's house together.Shu Ning's grandma in name had a little illness recently, and they went to visit her specially.Shu Ning accepted the newspaper, took care of it, told Xian Ning to practice calligraphy well, tidied her clothes and hair, and then went to the flower hall.

When she saw Na Danzhu, Shuning was stunned again.Although this Gege was not dressed up in bright red and green, he only wore a royal blue robe, but he also had a lot of jewelry on his head and body.She had sheepskin boots on her feet and a riding whip in her hand, and she seemed to be riding a horse.

Shuning bowed upright, and said hello to Na Danzhu with a smile on her face: "I didn't know that Ge Gefang was coming, but I was far away to welcome her, and I hope you will forgive me."

Na Danzhu frowned: "It was fine last time, why are you talking so sour today?"

Shu Ning still smiled: "I heard that Ge Ge is here to find his brother, but unfortunately he is not in Beijing now, so I am sorry for the waste of your trip."

"Not here? Hmph, are you avoiding me?" Na Danzhu flicked the whip in her hand, "Knowing that I'm leaving tomorrow, why don't you avoid seeing me?"

Shu Ning was "surprised": "Are you leaving tomorrow? We don't know, what a pity, I thought you would spend the winter in Beijing." She shook her head and sighed.

Seeing her like this, Na Danzhu looked better: "You really don't know?"

"I really don't know. Our family has closed the door and kept their filial piety at home. We haven't heard much about the outside world. Why did Gege leave so quickly? Don't you want to stay longer?"

Na Danzhu stomped her feet and said, "Do you think I don't want to? My father just refuses to agree." Yucheng tugged at her sleeve with some embarrassment: "Gege, Taiji also has difficulties, don't complain anymore .”

"What's the problem?!" Na Danzhu stared, "Isn't that the old lady celebrating her [-]th birthday? What does she have to do with our family? I've only seen her four times since I grew up. She celebrates her birthday, why should I?" Want me to go?"

"Gege!" Yucheng glanced at Shuning, and seeing that she didn't seem to be paying attention, he whispered to Na Danzhu, "That's the princess of the Qing Dynasty, don't say such things in front of outsiders."

Na Danzhu shook off him and got angry.Shu Ning persuaded with a smile: "Ge Ge doesn't have to be sad, birthday is a big event for elders, and the [-]th birthday is even more rare. Anyway, the days are long, and there will always be time to meet again in the future."

"Can't your brother come back? Call him now, and you can always meet before I leave, right?"

"Why didn't Ge Ge say it sooner?" Shu Ning looked regretful, "Brother is out of town now, even if you ask someone to notify you, it will take two days to go back and forth, no matter what, it's too late."

Na Danzhu was extremely depressed: "It's all my father's fault. He never allowed me to go out. Otherwise, if I came here two days earlier, wouldn't I be able to call Brother Duanning back?"

Hmph, if you had come two days earlier, her elder brother's place would have become a place that would take four days' journey to reach.

Na Danzhu was full of suffocation and had nowhere to vent her anger. Seeing Shu Ning standing there dignifiedly and smiling at her, not wanting to get angry with her, she flicked the whip a few times, but it happened to hit Yu Cheng's arm, causing the pain He yelled out.She glared at him: "What's it called? This little injury is also called, and you are worthy to be our descendant of Horqin?" Then she slammed the whip on the ground again, turned and left.

Filled with grievances, Yucheng looked at Shuning, only to see that she was looking at him coldly, startled for a moment, his face turned pale, he bowed in a hurry, and left.

Shu Ning watched his back disappear, feeling that she didn't sympathize with him at all.Duanning's classmate, I heard that his mother is also from Horqin, but she is not from the royal family, and her family background has also declined.I don't know if it was for this reason that he flattered Na Danzhu's family very much, and even betrayed his classmates, but obviously his actions did not win the favor of Na Danzhu's family, and he was even despised.But everyone is responsible for their own choices, and she will not give extra sympathy.

Nadanzhu's family left the next day.As soon as Tong got the exact news, she asked someone to inform her son that there were only two days left before the exam.Duanning returned home with ease, enjoyed the good soup and dishes specially prepared by his mother and sister, and devoted himself to reviewing his homework again.

But Tong Shi and Shu Ning began to prepare for the move.

(Many people have guessed right~ ^_^ I don’t know what’s wrong with the starting point today. It took a long time for the author to open the background. I thought it was smoked again...)
