Ordinary clear day

Chapter 145
On the second day, Shuning took the purse back to Wanning, and said: "After I went back yesterday, I heard from Er Niang that the gift had already been delivered. I can't help my sister, so I asked my sister to take back the purse." go."

Wanning was very disappointed, but she didn't want to take it back, since there was no other channel available anyway, she said, "In this case, I won't blame my sister, but please think of another way. I really just have good intentions , I hope to congratulate him and pray for the child. Besides, Brother Duanning knows how to go out? There is always a chance to meet him. "

Shu Ning frowned secretly, and said again: "I heard that my brother has a big exam in school, and now he doesn't go anywhere other than school and home, and he rarely sees friends. It's delaying my sister's affairs. Can't my sister ask others to help?"

Wan Ning sighed and said: "I originally wanted to find my sister-in-law, but even if she did go, she would not be able to see him, so I had to find you." Shu Ning twitched her lips: "Isn't sister this purse for Little Ge Ge? In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't see him, as long as you like it." Wanning was at a loss for words for a while, and she still refused to take back her purse.

Shu Ning talked a lot, seeing her stubbornness, she was a little annoyed, and wanted to say some harsh words, but she heard He Nanny's voice from outside the room: "If the girl is getting better, please move a little bit, learn the rules. Don't be lazy."

Then Yuehe said a few words in a soft voice, but Nanny He said: "Girl, you don't have to speak nicely for your master. What I want to teach is the young lady. I teach the girl to let you know the rules, but you can learn the rules." What's the use of so much? It's better to persuade your master to be more diligent, so that you will suffer less."

A trace of resentment flashed in Wanning's eyes, just in time for Shuning to see her, she immediately swallowed back what she wanted to say.Wanning said a few words in a hurry, still pushed the purse back to Shuning, then reluctantly got up and went out.Shuning followed behind, watching her talk to Nanny He with a smile, as if the haze in her eyes just now was just her own illusion, her heart was a little cold, and she secretly thought: Wanning is obviously no longer the little girl she used to be. To put it bluntly, I have a scheming heart. If I refuse firmly, I will only offend her. If I accidentally get tricked by her a few times, it will be hard to guard against. It seems that it is better to outsmart.

So she stopped talking nonsense, took the purse back to her room and put it away, and then stopped going to Wanning Courtyard.Just these days, in order to prepare for the great sacrifice, Mrs. Tong took over the task of arranging the sacrifice hall, including some needlework.Shu Ning volunteered to pick it up, and helped her mother with some housework, putting on a busy posture.

In fact, those needles and threads seem to be a lot. To do it, with Shuning's ability, it only takes two or three hours, but she stretches the time to two or three days, and only does it when outsiders come.She used her busy schedule as an excuse to stop going out. Every time Fang Ning, Xu Xu and others came to visit her, they could see her sitting among the piles of cloth and stitching needles.Although Fang Ning felt that she was doing it surprisingly slowly, she knew that this cousin had always had opinions, so she didn't open her mouth; while Xu Xu, although she knew how to do needlework, seldom did it herself, and she had no similar experience, so she didn't say anything. suspicious.In this way, Wanning who couldn't get out of the hospital got such an impression from others: Cousin Shuning was very busy and didn't have time to do other things.

Although she felt impatient, she had no choice but to continue to endure Nanny He's teaching while asking the maids to inquire about Sanfang's situation.

On the day of the grand ceremony, Wanning finally had some freedom, thinking that after the ceremony, she could have a private talk with Shuning, but unexpectedly, Shuning told her mother in advance, saying that this time Xiao Liu's mother and son would also participate, fearing that people would talk too much and they would be wronged , so stay with them.Wanning could only look at Shuning's figure from a distance, worried that there were many wives and grandmas over there, so she had to stay in the group of girls to deal with a few sisters, and she had to be on guard against Yuanning's troubles from time to time.

When it was time to eat, Wanning and Shuning were lined up together, but Shuning had already prepared, so she just sat there calmly, waiting for the table to start.

Wanning took advantage of the fact that no one else was paying attention, so she quietly asked Shuning what happened to her purse.Shujing quietly swallowed the tea in her mouth, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and wiped the corners of her forehead "smoothly", her eye circles turned red, and she was "wronged" to the point of tears.

Wan Ning was startled, and hurriedly coaxed her a few words. Xu Xu saw it from the side, frowned, and said, "Sister Wan, what did you say to Sister Shu? Why is she crying?" Wan Ning hurriedly said she didn't know.Others also found out about the situation here, and asked what was the matter. She didn't wait for Shuning to answer, and said first: "The third younger sister must be thinking of her grandfather, so she can't help being sad." The relatives believed it and comforted Shuning one after another. Ning even praised her for her filial piety.Xu Xu was skeptical, but Yuanning gave Wanning a weird look. Seeing her expression, she seemed to think that Wanning was bullying Shuning, which was a bit shameless.

After finally diverting other people's attention, Wanning whispered to Shuning, "Third sister, why are you crying so hard? Others thought I was bullying you."

Are you just bullying me?While slandering, Shu Ning recalled the situation just now, and secretly reviewed: she acted more naturally than Wan Ning, although she had borrowed external force, it was passable, but it's a pity that her eyelashes are not so long, and her skin is thinner than others, otherwise she would have Qiong Yao is disgusting and disgusting.

She choked up and replied: "Second sister, I really don't have time to spare, it's not that I don't want to help you." Then she flattened her mouth aggrievedly, wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and cried even more.Seeing Xu Xu, she hurriedly persuaded: "What's the big deal? Sister Wan is not such a stingy person, is she?" She looked up at Wanning.

What else could Wanning say?I thought to myself why the third girl cried so easily, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Na Lashi's sharp eyes flying over, her heart trembled, and she hurriedly said to Shuning: "I know, I won't force you, just wipe away your tears." .”

Shu Ning's goal was preliminarily achieved, she reached under the table, secretly changed a handkerchief of the same color and style stuffed in the other sleeve, wiped away her tears, thinking in her heart, as soon as the table was over, she would hurry up with her mother, lest Wanning was entangled again.

But Wanning was also thinking in her heart, now that under the watchful eyes of everyone, it would be troublesome if she made Shuning cry again, so let's find a chance to have a private talk with her after the banquet is over.

Only Xu Xu wondered: Is it so difficult to handle the matter entrusted by sister Wan?How do you say it's easy?Besides, Sister Shu is so busy these days, it's normal if she doesn't have time to help, why is Sister Wan forcing her again and again?

Not to mention the calculations in the hearts of the sisters, an accident happened: Shi Tara, who was serving cloth dishes at the table according to the rules, suddenly passed out.Everyone was in a hurry, those who carried people carried people, those who played fans played fans, those who invited doctors invited doctors, and the banquet broke up hastily.Shuning followed her mother closely in the chaos, and later left together. Because Wanning was taken away by Li Shi together with Fangning and Xuxu, she had to cancel the original plan.

Sitara passed out because she was pregnant. Nala was overjoyed but afraid of gossip. However, considering that Shun Ning is not the eldest grandson, they only need to observe filial piety for one year as a rule. It's just that their family wants to win a name of filial piety. , Only let the grandchildren follow for three years, and Sitara is pregnant, but there is no violation of the rules.Now that her children are important, she let go of her worries, and sent a lot of good medicinal materials everywhere, and ordered her servants to wait for the good students to wait for her.

But the doctor said that Sitara's pregnancy was a bit unstable, and she had to rest well, otherwise it might be dangerous.Nala felt guilty, knowing that she had been tired recently, so after discussing with the eldest daughter-in-law, she decided to take care of the second daughter-in-law herself.Mrs. Li took half of the housework in the mansion, and she entrusted Mrs. Tong with the other half. She planned to ask Mrs. Shen to take care of it, but Chunning was infected with the cold, and Mrs. Shen had to take care of her son, so she had to give up.

Tong Shi took over the housework and naturally took care of it properly.Shuning originally wanted to return the purse to Wanning before returning to Fangshan, and she would be fine. She never expected such an accident, but she could only stay with her mother, but Xiao Liu's mother and son went back to another hospital after two days up.In order to keep hiding from Wanning, she went back to the old way, helping her mother with the housework, pretending to be very busy.

Fang Ning was already studying housekeeping, so the two cousins ​​could often see each other, and even Xu Xu, who had nothing to do, could come to Huaiyuan to visit.Only Wanning returned to the days when she couldn't leave the courtyard freely, she learned the rules from Nanny He every day, she was very anxious, and she couldn't help being distracted occasionally.

Naturally, Mother He would not let it go, she beat her several times, and then said coldly: "Girl, you should be more serious, do you think that place is so easy to enter? People who don't understand the rules can't stand! If you If you really want to be that master, you should use more energy, do you think you can get through with just a face? Don't underestimate the nobles in the palace!"

She originally thought that Wanning was going to the palace, because it was common for her daughter to ask the nuns for advice when she was drafted, and this was not the first time for her, so she purposely used words to provoke Wanning.She didn't know that Wanning was aiming at another place, and she didn't know that her words had inadvertently stepped on Wanning's Achilles heel.

Although Wanning showed a teachable expression on her face, she was furious in her heart: Damn old woman, I originally thought that you would teach me a lot of things anyway, and I didn't intend to embarrass you. Since you are looking for your own death, don't blame me!
After a few days, news spread that Nanny He had developed many rashes, which were neither painful nor itchy, but no one knew what the disease was or whether it was contagious.Wanning "made a decisive decision" and ordered the maids and mothers-in-law to isolate He Nanny, and then personally reported the matter to her mother.Nala felt uneasy, worried that if it was really an infectious disease, the people in the mansion would be in danger, so she reported back to the palace where Nanny He lived, and the palace sent a manager to send Madam He out of the city .Then the entire Earl's Mansion will be cleaned up to prevent infection.

Later, it was vaguely heard that Nanny He's rash disappeared in less than two days, and she was fine, but the palace didn't allow her to go back.Wanning persuaded her mother again, saying that she had learned the rules for so long, and that was enough, so even though Nanny He is recovering now, who knows when she will relapse, it is better not to invite her back.After thinking about it, Nala thought it made sense, so she agreed, sent a big gift to thank the palace, and asked someone to bring some silver clothes to Madam He, but she didn't ask her to come home.

Several days had passed by now, Yinara was a little worried and kept paying attention to her daughter, Wanning acted very calm and ladylike, which made her quite satisfied.When she turned her attention back to her daughter-in-law, Wanning planned to find an opportunity to find Shuning in Huaiyuan.

But to her surprise, Shu Ning came to the door spontaneously, returned the purse to her, and said: "I just received the news that the Sibeile Mansion is closed and no outsiders are seen. I heard that Xiao Gege is seriously ill." , may die young, so I’m doing something to pray for blessings. At this time, I can’t send the things over, and I owe it to my second sister, please forgive me.”

Wanning was stunned, she only remembered the difficulties of the four or four heirs, but she didn't remember the possibility of his eldest daughter's death.Many thoughts turned in her mind, and she forced a smile: "Then I should send this purse over there, and pray for Little Gege. Didn't the third aunt say anything about the news?"

Of course, it was said that Mrs. Tong also specially sent a string of Buddhist beads that the eminent monk had consecrated, and set up a scripture altar in the room to pray for the baby girl.But Shu Ning was displeased, and felt that she was a bit cold-blooded to take advantage of children at such a time, and she really had no patience, so she said coldly: "Sister, if you have the heart, please read the scriptures a few times for Xiao Gege. As for the purse, you'd better take it back." After saying that, he stuffed the purse back to her, and without further ado, he left directly.

Although Wanning was annoyed, she was still able to stay awake. She knew that Sanfang was the one in the whole family who had the closest relationship with April [-]th, so she couldn't offend them right now, and it was Shuning who took the blame now, which really annoyed her. No good at all.So she got along with Shuning as usual, pretending to be nonchalant.However, Shu Ning only responded lightly, neither getting close nor obviously alienating.Xuxu, on the other hand, suddenly became silent recently, as if she was avoiding Wanning.

A few days later, the news came that the eldest daughter of the fourth elder brother had died, and it was not yet a full moon.Tong was very sad, so he specially asked someone to send some medicinal herbs to repair his body, and wrote a letter to comfort Si elder brother.

Wanning couldn't help feeling sad when she received the news of the four or four bereaved daughters, and missed a good opportunity.

She was worrying that she, who was freed, had no way to contact Si Si, but when she received two ladies from Fei Yanggu's family to pay her respects, she got a shocking news—Yu Min was about to be married to Si Elder Brother.

This decree had been announced a long time ago, and it was planned to postpone the announcement because of the new death of the eldest daughter of the fourth elder brother. However, Fei Yanggu's family has already received the notice and began to prepare for their daughter's marriage. It is said that the wedding will be in autumn. .

In fact, Yumin has rarely come here since last year. Hearing that she is receiving etiquette training just like herself, Wanning didn't think much about it.Although the two rarely meet each other, they send people to each other to greet each other every month.But Yumin's marriage was obviously settled long ago, but she didn't know it at all.

Wanning was in a state of confusion in her heart, and only relying on a trace of clarity to maintain her demeanor, she finally did not lose her manners in front of the two wives.She didn't have a chance to think about it until she was gone.

Although she knew that Yu Min would become Sifujin, in the past two or three years, she had the idea of ​​changing history, and even secretly lured Yu Min to pay attention to other men, but it was not very successful.However, her influence on Yumin's temperament is still somewhat fruitful, but unfortunately the palace still thinks that Yumin is suitable to be a royal daughter-in-law.

Wanning thought that although her family background was not as good as Yumin's, it was not bad, and she was qualified to be the prince's wife.Even if April [-] is cold to her for a while, but next year's draft, if she makes the queens and concubines happy, and now that she has been reborn, the possibility of referring to marriage still exists.

Take a ten thousand step back and say, if she really can't be Sisi's Zhengfu Jin, first win over Yumin, if she marries Sisi as a side Fujin in the future, life will be easier, besides Yumin has no son, her own The outlook is still good.She originally thought that Yumin would join her in next year's draft, but she didn't expect to get married this year.In this way, half of her original plan will come to nothing.

Wanning sat alone in the room for a long time, her mind was in a mess, she finally woke up, shook her head, and planned to go out for a walk to calm down, but when she passed a corridor, she heard smoke and Fang Chunyan next to Ning quarreled under the tree.

The two girls quarreled for some reason, Yanyun laughed at Chunyan as a bumpkin who had never seen the world, and regarded the jade plaque bought at a land stall as a treasure.Chunyan was not convinced, and said: "What do you know? How could this be bought from a street stall? It is obviously a gift from my aunt! I met the fourth elder brother in Fangshan last year, and he brought exactly the same one!"

Wanning paused, her eyes widened instantly.

(This is a bug that I only discovered recently. It turns out that the grandchildren only need to observe filial piety for one year. I thought it would take three years... Take this opportunity to make a round... As for the words in the last chapter that my daughter is too holy, I I also noticed it, I changed it a little last night...)
