After Mrs. Xie cried, maybe it was the appearance of Jiang Ningbao that made her see hope. Mrs. Xie quickly adjusted her mood, took the handkerchief handed over by Madam Huang and wiped away her tears. Her gentle eyes turned to the quietly standing there. little girl.
"This must be the Fourth Miss from the Changningbo Mansion, right?"
The Fourth Miss of the Jiang family is indeed as beautiful as the rumors say, with an excellent temperament.
Mrs. Xie nodded in satisfaction.
Nurse Huang on the side also had a very good impression of Jiang Ningbao.
This Fourth Miss Jiang is the man who is destined by the Duke, and whether the Duke can pass the hurdle of thirty in the future will require her help.
Jiang Ningbao showed a smile, went forward holding the small jar, and saluted Mrs. Xie: "Ningbao has seen the old lady."
Mrs. Xie was very happy to see that Jiang Ningbao not only had a delicate appearance, but also had clear eyes, and a graceful demeanor without any affectation. The sadness just now had faded away, and her smile became more and more amiable.
"I heard Xiao Zhao mentioned you earlier, and seeing you today, you are really very good, you are a good girl."
Jiang Ningbao's eyes were bent, and he said with a smile, "Thank you for your praise, old lady." Then he offered the delicate small jar in his hand, "Old lady, this is the medicinal wine I brewed myself. It can treat minor ailments of the body, and its effect is very magical."
After finishing speaking, Jiang Ningbao deliberately turned his head to glance at Dingguo Gong Xie Heng standing in the middle of the lobby, and added something with a hint of embarrassment.
"I heard that the Duke was injured on the battlefield in his early years, and this medicinal wine can also heal hidden injuries and heal the body."
Mrs. Xie was originally curious about what was in the small jar she was holding, but now when she heard that the little girl made the medicinal wine herself, and seeing her look at her son, a smile flashed in her eyes.
Her son was as cold as a piece of wood, and it was better for the little girl of the Jiang family to take the initiative.
Mrs. Xie smiled and asked Nanny Huang to accept the small wine jar: "Ningbao girl has a heart. Hearing what you said, I really want to taste how magical this medicinal wine is."
After finishing speaking, Mrs. Xie turned to her son and joked with a smile: "Heng, look how much this little girl cares about you."
Duke Ding Xie Heng "..."
Mrs. Xie didn't expect her cold son to respond, she just wanted to help the little girl.
"Old lady, you can taste it in Kaifeng now."
When Jiang Ningbao heard Mrs. Xie calling her Ningbao girl affectionately, a smile appeared in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitched slightly.
Dingguo Gong Xie Heng stood in the middle of the hall with a straight figure, watching his mother and the little girl having a happy conversation, smiling all over his face, his always cold heart was tinged with warmth.
But when he thought of the act of his adopted son kneeling down to force his mother to agree in order to dissolve the engagement, Duke Ding Xie Heng couldn't help showing a look of evil in his eyes.
"Okay, okay, Nanny Huang, did you hear what girl Ningbao said?" Mrs. Xie turned her head and glanced at Nanny Huang, thinking that this little girl would become her daughter-in-law, she couldn't help but smile from ear to ear.
Huang Momo nodded with a smile on her face: "Slave, open the wine jar now." As she spoke, she only used a little effort to slap off the sealing mud on the small wine jar, and a gentle scent of medicine mixed with it. The smell of wine escaped from the gaps around the porcelain lid of the small wine jar.
It's just the aroma of wine escaping, but it makes people feel comfortable when they smell it.
Mrs. Xie exclaimed: "Smelling the aroma of this medicinal wine, I feel a lot more relaxed. I can't wait to take a big sip of the medicinal wine to try the effect."
"Old madam, just a small cup of this medicinal wine is enough." Jiang Ningbao said softly from the side, but was moved by the trust that old madam Xie put into her heart.
Medicinal wine is usually appraised by a doctor afterwards, and it is not tasted on the spot.
Mrs. Xie did just that.
Jiang Ningbao didn't know that Dingguo Gong Xie Heng and Mrs. Xie had already known that she was the master behind the Jinjiang teahouse, and that she brewed good wine. Now that she said it was self-brewed medicinal wine, I was quite looking forward to it .
Nanny Huang removed the thick cloth and porcelain cover from the jar, and a richer aroma of wine burst out.
Mrs. Xie took a deep breath of the medicinal wine.
"Pour me a drink quickly."
Huang Momo smiled and said: "Old Madam, don't worry, this servant will pour you a glass of medicinal wine right now." Then, she washed her hands from the copper basin and dried them, then took out three clean small white porcelain cups from the coffee table , poured three cups of medicinal wine.
The medicinal wine is clear and translucent, light yellow in color, with a mild and rich aroma, and the smell is intoxicating and refreshing.
"Girl Ningbao, bring a glass of wine to Ah Heng to test the effect." Mrs. Xie pointed to a glass of medicinal wine on the coffee table, never forgetting to create opportunities for Jiang Ningbao.
"Okay, old lady."
A happy smile appeared on Jiang Ningbao's face, holding a glass of medicinal wine, he turned and walked towards Dingguo Xie Heng, looking at his handsome and cold face with a smile, and said in a crisp and gentle voice, "Guogong, please taste it."
After speaking, she offered the medicinal wine with both hands.
The ruby bracelet on one of the wrists was extremely eye-catching, and one couldn't help but focus on her pair of white and delicate slender hands.
Duke Dingguo Xie Heng looked away slightly, took the cup of medicinal wine, and said in a low voice.
"thanks!"
The corner of Jiang Ningbao's mouth twitched slightly, and he went back and took a sip of his own glass of medicinal wine, his eyes falling on Dingguo Gong Xie Heng from time to time.
The more she looks at it, the more she likes it.
Duke Ding Xie Heng drank the small cup of medicinal wine without hesitation.
As soon as the medicinal wine entered his stomach, he immediately felt a slight heat flow in his body, and there was still a slight stinging pain. After the heat flow passed, the stinging pain disappeared, and the large and small hidden wounds were repaired one by one.
Especially in his abdomen, when he was on the battlefield in his early years, he accidentally hit a poisoned arrow. In the end, he survived, but suffered from an incurable disease. Now, just a small cup of medicinal wine made him feel the dawn of healing.
A trace of shock flashed across Duke Dingguo Xie Heng's fierce eyes.
At this time, Mrs. Xie had already finished drinking a glass of medicinal wine, and she looked as if she was ten years younger.
For more than 20 years, Mrs. Xie has been suffering from illnesses. As she gets older, her eyes also suffer from dizziness. Now she finds that after drinking the medicinal wine, her body feels warm and comfortable, and her eyes have recovered to the vision she had when she was young. Things are no longer separated by a layer of veil.
"This medicinal wine is so miraculous. Now I feel like I've been reborn from my illness. I can even clearly see the little birds on the big tree outside."
Madam Xie exclaimed excitedly.
Hearing the old lady's words, Huang Momo's eyes widened, obviously also noticing the change of Old Madam Xie, it seemed that the small jar of medicinal wine given by Miss Jiang Si was extremely precious, Huang Momo hurriedly and carefully sealed the mouth of the jar again.
Jiang Ningbao pursed her lips and smiled. The medicinal wine is of course miraculous. When she brewed this altar of medicinal wine, she specially endowed the medicinal wine with the property of eliminating hidden dangers in the body.
"The medicinal wine brewed by Ningbao girl is really miraculous, and the sky-high price of wine from Shangyun Winery has been compared to the quagmire."
"Heng, do you think so?"
When Mrs. Xie was praising Jiang Ningbao, she deliberately brought her son Ice Cube who would not please the little girl.
Jiang Ningbao was keenly aware of the old lady's intentions, and a bright smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. The whole person looked more and more charming and unparalleled, making it impossible to take her eyes off.
Ding Guogong Xie Heng's expression did not change at all, and he commented concisely.
"The medicinal wine is very good."
"As long as the old lady likes it, I will send you a few jars of health-preserving medicinal wine in the future." Jiang Ningbao went through the information of Shangyun Winery in his mind, smiled brightly, and his eyes sparkled.
Few people in the capital know that the most mysterious master behind the scene of Shangyun Distillery is the heroine Yang Shuqing. Relying on the reborn prophet, Yang Shuqing obtained the ancient wine-making recipe that belonged to 'Jiang Ningbao' in her previous life.
The sky-high wines brewed by ancient recipes are all health-preserving wines.
The effect is amazing.
Yang Shuqing won over many backers by relying on the sky-high price of wine. It can be said that the ancient wine making recipe is the most important golden finger of the heroine.
Although Mrs. Xie was tempted, she didn't want to take advantage of the little girl.
"Girl Ningbao, how about I add 30% to the sky-high price of Shangyun Winery for this medicinal wine?"
"Add 40%."
Dingguo Gong Xie Heng suddenly spoke coldly.
Jiang Ningbao's eyebrows jumped: "..."
This one is more ruthless, as if the silver was blown by a strong wind.
Mrs. Xie nodded in agreement: "A-Heng said that 40% is 40%, this medicinal wine is worth it!"
"Old madam, you don't need so much. The medicinal materials used in this medicinal wine are not precious." What is precious is her own magical brewing skills, which endow the medicinal wine with magical properties.
The exorbitant price of wine in Shangyun Winery is worth thousands of gold per jar. Adding 40% to this price makes people dizzy just thinking about it. Jiang Ningbao didn't want to earn money from Mrs. Xie.
Two wanted to give more money, but one disagreed.
Neither side is willing to budge.
Seeing this scene, Huang Momo was very speechless and even wanted to laugh.
In the end, Jiang Ningbao smiled helplessly: "Madam, Grandpa, I really don't need so much. If you really want to give silver, just give five hundred taels of silver."
The cost of her medicinal wine is really low, it is just brewed by ordinary brewing recipes, unlike Shangyun Winery's sky-high price wine, the brewing process is complicated and many precious medicinal materials are used.
But Jiang Ningbao really didn't care about a few jars of medicinal wine.
She couldn't even send it out.
Mrs. Xie disagreed all over her face, but under Jiang Ningbao's insistence, she had no choice but to compromise, but secretly decided to use other ways to compensate Jiang Ningbao.
Ding Guogong Xie Heng also thought so in his heart.
At this time, he remembered the purpose of returning home, and the aura around him was suddenly cold: "Mother, where is Xie Jingyi?"
Mrs. Xie choked, couldn't help but glared at her wicked son, and even mentioned the little girl's ex-fiancé in front of the little girl.
When Jiang Ningbao heard Dingguo Gong Xie Heng ask about her ex-fiancé's whereabouts, she didn't feel anything. She raised her eyebrows slightly, and a look of curiosity flashed in her eyes.
Xie Jingyi should not be in the mansion, otherwise his adoptive son would not have shown up until now when his adoptive father returned to the mansion.
"He went to the Marquis of Anyuan to propose marriage early in the morning."
When Mrs. Xie talked about her adopted grandson, her expression was a little cold.
Dingguo Gong Xie Hengjun's face darkened, his eyes were full of evil spirits, and several people in the lobby suddenly felt a suffocating sense of oppression, but fortunately, the oppressive feeling disappeared after a while.
"I disagree!"
Jiang Ningbao: "..."
As Xie Jingyi's adoptive father, Ding Guogong did have the right to disagree.
But people came to propose marriage early this morning, and it is estimated that Geng Tie has been exchanged by now, and the dust has settled if Duke Ding does not agree.
"Heng, why don't you agree?"
Mrs. Xie looked at her son in surprise.
Although he is a bit disheartened about this adopted grandson, he still wishes him well. Since he likes the eldest daughter of Marquis Anyuan, Mrs. Xie will not object.
As long as it's not the little girl of the Jiang family.
The little girl from the Jiang family is her intended daughter-in-law.
Dingguo Gong Xie Heng's expression was cold and hard, his eyes swept over Jiang Ningbao's face, and the center of his eyebrows moved slightly.
Mrs. Xie, who has excellent eyesight, noticed it with sharp eyes, and suddenly realized that it was because of the little girl of the Jiang family. She smiled and asked, "Ah Heng, are you worried about Ningbao girl?"
Grandma Huang on the side laughed too.
Ding Guogong Xie Heng's expression remained unchanged, and he acquiesced to Mrs. Xie's guess.
Jiang Ningbao's eyes shone brightly, and the corner of her mouth curled up into a beautiful smile, and she said with a deep meaning: "Master Guo, in fact, the son has someone else he likes, and I am very happy."
Ding Guogong Xie Heng cast his eyes on the little girl, and the two looked at each other.
The little girl's eyes were clear and clean, and there was really no emotion other than joy. He asked in a cold and hoarse voice, "Don't you like it?"
"Yes, I don't like it. At the beginning, the marriage contract between me and Shizi was just a life-saving grace, a good relationship between the two families. Over the years, Shizi and I have only met a few times, and there is no deep relationship."
Especially this son is ungrateful.
"I don't care if the prince sent Steward Zhao to withdraw from the marriage. I just don't want to be forced to give up my position. It's just that my reputation is damaged."
Jiang Ningbao and Duke Ding looked at each other with evil eyes, and said frankly and sincerely.
Mrs. Xie already knew that the little girl of the Jiang family had no feelings for raising her grandson, and now seeing her frank and frank appearance, she was still very happy.
Her approach to raising grandchildren is indeed chilling.
At the beginning, Mrs. Xie did not agree with him withdrawing the marriage. There were more than one solution, but she chose the most ruthless one to raise her grandson.
- divorce
Retirement is too cruel to the woman, especially the woman is quite innocent, but the adoptive grandson insists on resigning, and even kneels at the gate of Rongxi Hall for a day and a night, his biological parents also come to intercede, Mrs. Xie can only be forced Nodding helplessly.
She even regretted choosing Xie Jingyi as her successor.
Dingguo Gong Xie Heng obviously did not expect the little girl to be so indifferent, his icy breath froze for a moment, Xie Heng who wanted to support her fell silent again.
But if it's time to settle accounts, he will still settle accounts.
"However, I told my son that I want to be a family with you." Jiang Ningbao smiled playfully, her extremely beautiful eyes stared straight at Dingguo Gong Xie Heng's cold and handsome face, and said meaningfully.
Mrs. Xie came back to her senses when she heard what the young girl of the Jiang family said, and couldn't help laughing.
The little girl from the Jiang family is really... really not reserved at all, but she likes it.
The son is too stupid, so he can only rely on the daughter-in-law to take the initiative.
For some reason, Mrs. Xie looked forward to the life of the two of them after they got married. With the little girl of the Jiang family, his son's life would definitely not be boring.
Dingguo Gong Xie Heng suddenly said: "Do you want to be my daughter?"
