Changningbo Mansion
After Jiang Ningbao had lunch, she stood by the window and looked at the heavy rain outside. The damp wind blew in, bringing a little bit of chill, but her heart was calm. According to her eldest brother, the old lady only woke up after two quarters of a coma come over.
Jiang Ningbao was quite disappointed to say something unfilial.
"Girl, there's a lot of humidity by the window, be careful of catching a cold." As soon as Chunxi came in, she saw the girl opened the window, couldn't help but said something concerned, and went back to the inner room to take out a cloak and put it on the girl.
Jiang Ningbao has been drinking his own brewed wine since he was a child. He is in excellent health and has never been sick. How can he be afraid of the wind and rain, and he is not a delicate boudoir daughter. It is easy to get sick when the cold wind blows. Thinking of studying with two nuns in the afternoon, Jiang Ningbao first asked about the situation of the two nuns.
"Chunxi, are the two nuns in the guest room satisfied?"
After all, Uncle Changning's Mansion was not as good as the Imperial Palace, especially the West Courtyard where she lived. Jiang Ningbao couldn't help worrying that the two nuns would not adapt or be satisfied.
"According to the maidservant, the two nuns didn't show any displeasure, and they ate most of their lunch, so they should be satisfied." Chunxi thought for a while and replied.
Jiang Ningbao nodded, and said: "Let the people who serve you be more careful."
Chun Xi complied.
At this time, a woman came in to report, her voice was quite excited: "Girl, Duke Ding is here."
Jiang Ningbao looked surprised: "Where is the Duke?" She was just complaining, but she didn't expect the Duke to rush over in the rain. This feeling of being cherished warmed Jiang Ningbao's heart.
The mother-in-law hurriedly said: "The Duke is under the eaves at the door."
When Jiang Ningbao heard the words, she quickly lifted the corner of her skirt and ran out, leaving Chunxi and her mother-in-law in the house. Chunxi secretly said, the girl is always so anxious when she hears that the Duke is coming.
Under the eaves of the corridor at the entrance, a tall and straight figure stood there like a pine and bamboo, with a hint of anxiety in his sharp eyebrows, and the rain had already soaked his brocade robe, dripping water from the corners of his clothes.
"My lord, you are here."
Jiang Ningbao saw that Ding Guogong's robe was mostly wet, his eyes were slightly wet, his heart seemed to be hit hard, and a sweet and distressed feeling came to his heart.
She couldn't help rushing over to hug him, put her arms around his neck, and the two of them stuck tightly together.
The servants in the yard looked at the two embracing each other under the eaves from a distance, their eyes were full of excitement and joy, and even the two nuns in the guest room came out to check the situation when they heard the movement.
Unexpectedly, I saw the scene where Grandpa Guo and Miss Jiang Si hugged each other.
The two nuns looked at each other, and they paid more attention to Miss Jiang Si in their hearts.
"Ningbao, are you okay?"
There was a trace of anxiety and worry in Duke Dingguo's deep voice, and a pair of slender and powerful arms encircled Jiang Ningbao in his arms. The strength was not strong, but he held her tightly in his arms. His strong and hard body seemed to be her strongest body. backing.
"I'm fine. I'm fine. Grandpa, why did you come here in the rain? What if you catch a cold?" Jiang Ningbao snuggled into his arms and couldn't help but worry.
"I'm worried about you." Duke Ding said lightly.
A deep voice rang in Jiang Ningbao's ears, and the hot breath of her breath touched her ears, making her heart tremble.
"Grandpa, I'm really happy to see that you care about me so much." Jiang Ningbao raised her delicate and soft face, full of joy.
"Don't look at me as weak and weak. I'm not a person who swallows my anger and allows others to bully me. It's okay for my grandmother to be biased. I don't care, but this time it's too much. I just rejected my grandmother's request. She used my elder brother's Future threatens me, is she really the real grandmother of our brothers and sisters?"
Jiang Ningbao couldn't help feeling suspicious.
Among the grandsons of the uncle's mansion, her elder brother Jiang Jin was the most outstanding. He was admitted as a scholar at a young age and had a bright future. However, Mrs. Jiang seemed to be unable to see her eldest brother, the direct grandson, so she focused all her attention on the big house.
"When I came here, I sent my personal guards to beat Mrs. Jiang." Duke Ding's voice was cold, and a trace of evil flashed in his eyes.
Calling it a beating is actually more like a warning.
Beat the old lady...
Jiang Ningbao felt relieved when she thought of the old lady's aggrieved appearance and dared not speak. She couldn't help but bury herself in Duke Ding's arms and laughed happily.
"Grandpa, you've lost all face and face of grandma after you beat her."
"Shouldn't you threaten me with your brother's future in the future?"
Unexpectedly, it was just a complaint, but the Duke gave her a big surprise.
"She dare not."
Duke Ding said in a low voice, and stretched out his hand to brush the ends of the little girl's hair on the temples. The usual indifference in her eyes melted away most of it as if spring had arrived, and even the light in her eyes became soft.
Mrs. Jiang will threaten, so will he.
She dare not... no she won't.
There is a difference of one word, but the deterrent effect is different.
Jiang Ningbao seemed to have taken a reassurance, and the worry in his heart disappeared instantly.
A gust of cold wind blew, Jiang Ningbao shuddered, and suddenly came back to his senses, they were still under the eaves of the corridor, and Jiang Ningbao's face turned red slightly when he saw the servants quietly watching in the distance from the corner of his eyes.
"It's raining and windy outside, let's go inside and talk about it." She left Duke Ding's arms and entered the room holding Duke Ding's big hand. She couldn't help being annoyed, Duke Ding must have rushed over , I didn't notice that she was drenched in rain, and she was wet all over, and she was still grinding with the Duke of the country under the eaves, blowing the cold wind.
It really shouldn't be.
"Chun Xi, send someone to get a clean set of new clothes from Big Brother." As soon as Jiang Ningbao entered the room, he gave Chun Xi a word and took out a plain handkerchief to wipe the water on the handsome face and hair of the Duke.
Duke Ding looked at the little girl intently, the tenderness in his eyes was clearly revealed.
Jiang Ningbao was stared at by his scorching gaze, and her pretty face was stained with a touch of blush, as if she had put on rouge, rosy and charming. After drying off the water on Ding Guogong's face and head, she poured a glass for Ding Guogong Hot tea, softly making a sound.
"My lord, sit down and drink some hot tea to warm up, and I'll get you a jar of medicinal wine to drive away the cold."
"it is good."
Duke Ding looked at the pretty and virtuous little girl, stretched out his hand to take the hot tea, looked at her slender back as she hurriedly went to get the medicinal wine, the corners of her mouth could not be restrained from rising, all the worry and anxiety in my heart disappeared in this instant no deposit.
After a while, Jiang Ningbao came in holding a delicate small wine jar. After opening, a strong and pleasant medicinal fragrance escaped. Jiang Ningbao poured a small cup for Duke Ding and said with a smile.
"Medical wine to drive away the cold."
Ding Guogong took the medicinal wine and drank it down, the coldness on his body suddenly disappeared, replaced by warm heat flowing in his body, very comfortable.
He couldn't help but think of the soldiers in the bitter cold region of the northwest, his handsome face suddenly became serious, and he asked, "Ningbao, this medicinal wine is very effective, is it difficult to brew?"
Jiang Ningbao obviously understood the intention of Duke Ding's inquiry, smiled sweetly, and answered seriously and in detail: "Master Guo, in fact, it is very easy to brew cold-dispelling medicinal wine, and the prescription is also a simple prescription for dispelling cold. The medicinal materials used are more common. The cost of general drinks in the wine shop is still low."
"What matters is my special ability."
"If the Duke needs this cold-dispelling medicinal wine, I can spend some time brewing it."
Ding Guogong nodded: "Give me the list of medicinal materials."
Almost all the liquors in the wineries in the Dayue Dynasty were brewed with grain. The grain output was not high, and the people depended on the sky for food.
But what the little girl brewed was medicinal wine and flower brewing, and what she did made the Duke very pleased.
Ding Guogong didn't know that Jiang Ningbao was a person who came from the end of the world. She attached great importance to food since she was a child, so she didn't waste food, and only used herbs and edible petals to make wine.
"Okay." Jiang Ningbao didn't refuse, but responded with a smile.
At this time, Chunxi's voice sounded outside.
"My lord, girl, here are the clean new robes."
Jiang Ningbao happily took the new robe and stuffed it into Duke Ding's hands, then pulled him to the door of the inner room, and pushed him in, "Master Guo, quickly change the wet robe on your body." After finishing speaking, Close the inner door.
Duke Ding Xie Heng looked at the new robe in his hand, and the corner of his mouth raised a small arc.
After about a cup of tea, Duke Ding Xie Heng put on this new dark blue robe, and walked out from the room with steady steps, with sharp eyes, handsome features, and an imposing aura that made one's heart palpitate.
The only thing that is not harmonious is that the new robe does not fit well. Duke Ding is taller and taller. Jiang Jin's robe looks shorter and tighter on Duke Ding, but it compares Duke Ding's good The figure is perfectly outlined.
"My lord, the girl is going to change her clothes. Please wait in the lobby for a while, and the slaves will leave first."
As soon as Dingguogong came out, Chunxi immediately felt a sense of oppression, his heart was stuffy, and he felt very uncomfortable, so he hurriedly finished his words and left.
Duke Ding: "..."
After a long while, Jiang Ningbao changed into a white-bottomed water-red flowered skirt and went to the lobby. He saw the unfitting robe on Ding Guogong's body at a glance, covered his mouth and snickered, but his eyes were full of amazement, a man with temperament and figure , looks good in anything.
Thinking that such an outstanding man belonged to her, Jiang Ningbao's brows and eyes were stained with joy.
…
Anyuanhoufu
Mrs. An Yuanhou went to Dingguo Duke's mansion early in the morning, and when she returned to the mansion, she sent someone to call her daughter.
As soon as Yang Shuqing entered the room, she couldn't wait to ask: "Mother, did Mrs. Xie agree?"
Mrs. An Yuanhou looked into her daughter's expectant eyes, and told her with embarrassment: "Qing'er, Mrs. Xie said that Duke Ding did not agree, and that the date of marriage cannot be changed unless it is a renegotiation."
"Qing'er, it doesn't matter whether the wedding date is brought forward or not. It just so happens that we have more time to prepare for your wedding." Mrs. An Yuanhou is a gentle but soft-tempered person, that's why the aunt in the backyard stepped on her head.
Yang Shuqing's pretty face darkened: "Mom, can't my wedding date be brought forward by half a month?" After marrying in a month, who knows if there will be any accidents.
What if Jiang Ningbao was lucky enough to become pregnant with Duke Ding's heir
In a month's time, Ding Guogong's backyard might have been like an iron barrel made by Jiang Ningbao, so how could she put her own people in it by then.
Madam An Yuanhou shook her head.
"cannot."
Ding Guogong personally spoke, and there is absolutely no possibility of changing it.
Yang Shuqing also knew in her heart that she could only suppress the unwillingness in her heart, and secretly prayed that Jiang Ningbao's physique was not the kind that could easily conceive, no, she had to make two preparations.
Her father said that Duke Ding had been seriously injured in his early years, and his offspring had a difficult time, but Jiang Ningbao always gave her a bad feeling. This feeling suddenly appeared after meeting Jiang Ningbao in Jinjiang Teahouse.
Yang Shuqing believed in her feelings, because her feelings were never wrong, that's why she wanted to advance the wedding date.
Unfortunately it didn't work out.
Yang Shuqing was extremely disappointed in her heart, it seemed that she could only think of other ways.
Back in the courtyard, Qian Rong, who was dressed in a green dress, suddenly rushed in to report with steam all over her body.
"Miss, at noon today, Ding Guogong braved the heavy rain to go to Changningbo Mansion. According to our eyeliner in Changningbo Mansion, there was a dispute between Miss Jiang Si and Mrs. Jiang this morning. It's to support Miss Jiang Si."
Yang Shuqing's face sank like water, she focused on the word "dispute", narrowed her eyes slightly, and asked, "Do you know what they are arguing about?"
Qianrong replied uncertainly: "It seems to be related to the two nuns brought back by Miss Jiang Si yesterday?"
Yang Shuqing frowned, and his expression suddenly sank: "What's the background of those two nuns?"
In the last two days, she has been dealing with all the accounts of Shangyun Winery. She is so busy that she does not touch the ground, and she rarely pays attention to Jiang Ningbao. She only heard Qianrong mention last night that Mrs. Xie gave Jiang Ningbao a foster mother.
Yang Shuqing thought about how she had ridiculed Jiang Ningbao last night and waved away Clinique without even having a nunnery, and did not ask the two nuns where they came from.
A bad feeling suddenly rose in my heart.
If the Holy Majesty hadn't suddenly ordered to build a good hall, she and King Qin would not have been robbed of the limelight.
Thinking of giving up 10% of the profit every month in the future, but not achieving the expected effect, Yang Shuqing's heart ached.
Obviously, in the previous life, the Holy One did not plan to build a philanthropic hall, but in this life, he suddenly appeared and caught her and King Qin by surprise.
After discussing with King Qin, Yang Shuqing decided to make a fuss on the account books to minimize losses.
So I don't know that Mrs. Xie is looking for two for Jiang Ningbao.
Nanny came out of the palace, but at this moment, she felt something was wrong.
"I heard that these two nuns served the former empress." Qianrong replied cautiously.
She was actually the nanny who served the former queen...
Yang Shuqing's face was gloomy, the handkerchief in his hand was about to be crushed, and a trace of scarlet gradually appeared in his eyes.
Mrs. Xie is so eccentric.
If she had known this, she would never have given away a jar of the most precious and sky-high priced health wine just to win Mrs. Xie's favor.
Yang Shuqing was so angry that he vomited blood.
