Jiang Ningbao calmly watched the aunt's performance pretending to be calm, turned her head and glanced at the old lady with a dark face, and a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of her mouth.
The uncle wanted her to eat alone, but because of a moment of nervousness, she left the old lady aside.
That's not right in itself.
It's a pity that Mrs. Jiang didn't seem to notice.
Jiang Ningbao lowered her eyelids. This time, Mrs. Zhang has touched her bottom line. She does not intend to let her aunt Mrs. Zhang, the dignified Mrs. Zhang, do not need to swallow her anger. Mrs. Zhang was just making a fuss in the past, and did not really hurt her. She is different now, Mrs. Zhang has lost her conscience.
Who would feed her niece sterilized food when she returned home, Mrs. Zhang's heart was already darkened.
Without the guidance of the two nuns, Jiang Ningbao would not have known it.
"Uncle, my niece appreciates your kindness, but my niece is not a person who eats alone, Xiaotao, divide these dishes into five portions, so that everyone can try them too."
Jiang Ningbao flicked the hair beside her ears, looked at her aunt Zhang with a smile, and spoke softly, with a beautiful smile, like a lotus flower in clear water, pure and charming.
Xiaotao is the name of the maid who brought her food just now.
In Zhang's eyes, Jiang Ningbao's smile was like an evil ghost demanding her life, and a chill suddenly rose in her heart, no, Yao'er and her daughter-in-law must not be allowed to eat these dishes.
Mrs. Jiang was extremely satisfied with her fourth granddaughter's actions, and acted as a godly assist without hesitation.
"Si girl is right, it's just right to divide into five parts."
Jiang Ningbao's smile is even more charming.
Xiaotao didn't move for a long time.
Jiang Ningbao looked back at Xiao Tao, the handmaid, but found that her lips were trembling slightly, her brows turned cold, it seemed that Xiao Tao was also an insider.
"Xiao Tao!"
Jiang Ningbao called out again, the smile on her face faded a bit, but the coldness in her voice made Xiaotao shiver, she took a peek at Madam, only to see Madam make a secret gesture to her.
Xiaotao understood what Da Furen meant, her hands trembled slightly, a stiff smile appeared on her face, and she said bravely.
"Fourth Miss, the servants will share the dishes."
Jiang Ningbao narrowed her eyes slightly, and didn't miss the sight of the two of them. The aunt's seemingly normal movements seemed to be reversed. With a turn of her mind, she immediately understood that Mrs. Zhang wanted to ruin these dishes, and sneered in her heart. How could she let She got her wish.
These few dishes are the basis for her to clean up Mrs. Zhang.
"Xiao Tao, don't shake your hands. Grandma will be angry if you ruin these dishes." Jiang Ningbao looked at Xiao Tao with a half-smile, with a hint of warning in his tone.
When Mrs. Jiang heard the fourth granddaughter's words, she faintly felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't put it into words. She frowned, and glanced at Hong Xing, the confidant maid who gave her vegetables, and ordered with a heartbeat.
"Xiaotao, stand back, Hongxing, go and share those dishes."
As soon as these words came out, Zhang's body swayed almost imperceptibly, his brain exploded with a bang, cold sweat broke out on his back, and the clothes on his back were drenched.
Jiang Ningbao looked at the auntie Zhang with a smile, not missing her reaction for a moment.
Uncle, I don't know what will you do next
"Yes, old lady."
Hong Xing responded respectfully, walked up to Jiang Ningbao in small steps, and skillfully divided several dishes into five portions.
As soon as the old lady spoke, Xiaotao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly backed away with her head lowered. No one knew how nervous she was just now. At this moment, she turned the dishes upside down. The old lady punished her and lost half of her life.
Now that someone is taking over, Xiaotao is too late to be happy.
In fact, she was very unwilling to do this in her heart. Who told her that yesterday she accidentally found out that Madam and her confidant, Nanny Yang, were going to assassinate Miss Fourth when Miss Fourth returned home, and they were caught on the spot. In the hands of the madam, as long as she is obedient, the lives of the family members will be safe.
So Xiaotao could only act as an accomplice.
Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but glared at Xiaotao. This Xiaotao really failed to accomplish anything and failed to do so well. She couldn't even do a little thing well. Now her nervous heart was about to jump out. People find out that something is wrong with her, once found out, wait for her end...
Mrs. Zhang couldn't imagine.
Jiang Ningbao's status is not what it used to be, and Duke Ding is still having lunch outside.
She can't take risks, let alone act rashly and expose herself. She has two sons, she is the eldest wife of the uncle's mansion, and Jiang Ningbao, the uncle of the Duke's wife...she still has a bright future.
Uncle Zhang's heart was broken, but she couldn't give birth.
Yao'er will definitely understand her.
At the critical moment, Mrs. Zhang finally chose her own interests.
Jiang Mingyao at the side was sitting silently on a chair, not knowing that she had become the abandoned son of her own mother, if Jiang Ningbao followed suit, the rest of her life would be ruined.
The sister-in-law in the lobby is a delicate mind, she sat there without saying a word, and an incredible thought came to her mind, could there be something wrong with the dishes that the fourth sister ate
But Mrs. Jiang also ate it.
This means that these dishes are not poisonous, but they have other effects. Thinking of what the lady just said, the wife in the lobby trembled, and the effects of these dishes are ready to be revealed.
It should be to kill a woman's fertility... But just now the fourth sister ate it...
Things are serious.
Thinking of this, she suddenly raised her head to look at Jiang Ningbao, Jiang Ningbao showed her a smile that was not a smile, the eyes of the lobby sister-in-law froze, and her heart sank suddenly.
She stroked her still flat stomach, she didn't know if these dishes would cause harm to the child in her stomach, but she would definitely not eat these dishes.
There are no flukes in the world.
The lobby sister-in-law didn't know if her guess was correct, but she didn't want to bet.
But the fourth sister knew there was a problem, so why did she still eat it? Could it be that she had a way... The more the lobby wife thought about it, the more she felt that this fourth sister was not simple.
Jiang Ningbao raised her eyebrows slightly, the lobby sister-in-law is indeed a smart person, she was the first to see something was wrong, it's a pity to match the lobby brother, a flower was stuck on the cow dung.
Looking at Mrs. Zhang this time, I found that she had calmed down, as if she didn't know anything.
Jiang Ningbao frowned slightly.
After a while, Hong Xing divided the dishes into five portions.
Mrs. Jiang gave one, and the other four were given to the other four people at the dinner table. The aunt Zhang took a deep breath, and took a bite without changing her face. Now she has two sons and two daughters, and she is about to hug her. Grandson, the inability to have another child has no effect on her.
"Mother is right, these dishes are really delicious." Mrs. Zhang was full of praise.
Jiang Ningbao raised her eyebrows. She seemed to have underestimated Zhang's viciousness.
Uncle Zhang's behavior is chilling.
The sister-in-law in the lobby did not move, she stroked her abdomen, blushed, and said embarrassedly: "I am pregnant, and there are spices in these dishes that are not suitable for pregnant women. Delicious food for grandma."
Mrs. Jiang took a look at the dishes when she heard the words, and she found some spices that were not suitable for pregnant women.
"Hongxing, bring her share here."
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Zhang breathed a sigh of relief.
She glanced at her daughter, hoping that her daughter could find an excuse not to eat.
But Jiang Mingyao didn't.
She was picking up the dishes to eat, Zhang's heart suddenly rose to her throat, but she couldn't stop it, she hated Jiang Ningbao to death in her heart, the dishes were delicious, it was good to eat alone, why bother to say it.
Jiang Ningbao sighed in his heart, and stopped softly: "Fifth sister, these dishes are not suitable for you."
Mrs. Jiang frowned slightly.
Jiang Mingyao paused, pursed her lips, and a trace of doubt flashed on her cold face.
"Why isn't it suitable for me to eat?"
There was a sarcastic smile on the corner of Jiang Ningbao's mouth, and his eyes fell on Mrs. Zhang: "Fifth sister, I have to ask my auntie, auntie, you are such a cruel mother. give up."
Zhang's heart trembled, what does Jiang Ningbao mean? Could it be that she knew there was something wrong with the dishes, but didn't she also eat them? As long as she eats the dishes with seedless flowers, she will not be able to have children in this life.
Thinking about it this way, Mrs. Zhang calmed down. As long as she kept her mouth shut, Jiang Ningbao could do anything to her. She gave Jiang Ningbao a stern look and said in a stern voice.
"Si girl, what do you mean by that?"
Mrs. Jiang finally noticed something was wrong.
Jiang Ningbao smiled indifferently, and looked at the bowl of dishes in front of him, his eyes were cold: "Auntie, you will understand later, Hong Xing, go and call the Duke over here, this matter cannot be resolved today."
Can't be better...
Mrs. Zhang was startled, her back felt chills, as if a catastrophe was imminent, and Nanny Yang beside her was not much better.
Both the master and the servant were secretly speculating anxiously whether they had been exposed.
Mrs. Jiang's eyes lingered on the faces of Jiang Ningbao and Mrs. Zhang, her face sank, and she suddenly put the chopsticks in her hand on the dining table: "Si girl, what happened?"
Jiang Ningbao smiled faintly: "Grandmother will know later."
After a while, Duke Ding came over. Of course, the big brother Jiang Jin wanted to come over to see what was going on. Uncle Changning and his two sons also followed.
"Ningbao, what's the matter?" Duke Ding walked over to Jiang Ningbao with a cold and sharp handsome face, with anxiety in his brows. question, he asked.
Duke Ding knew that if it wasn't necessary, Ningbao would never be so ready.
As soon as Duke Ding's words came out, everyone turned their attention to Jiang Ningbao and Mrs. Zhang.
Jiang Ningbao's smile sank, and he stretched out his slender fingers to point to the empty plates in front of him and his small bowl, and said calmly: "Master Guo, these dishes in front of me have added seedless flowers. powder."
"what?"
Everyone present was shocked, Wuzihua was not a good thing when they heard it, Wuzi... Wuzi, clearly meant to make people sterilized.
Uncle Changning's face was ashen, and Jiang Ningbao's two cousins were so shocked that they couldn't speak. They didn't expect that there was such a thing as childless flowers.
Jiang Mingyao's face turned pale, and the chopsticks in her hands fell to the ground suddenly. She looked at her mother in disbelief, and her lips moved. She really wanted to ask her mother if she did it.
"As the name implies, seedless flowers, regardless of men and women, will be infertile as long as they eat seedless flowers, and will not cause other harm to the body, but this kind of flower has an advantage, that is, it can make ordinary dishes very delicious. "
Jiang Ningbao explained calmly.
This time Mrs. Jiang was startled. She ate two bowls just now, but she felt relieved when she thought that the seedless flower would not cause harm except to make people infertile.
His face was gloomy like water.
"Auntie, I'm right. You just said that you let me enjoy these delicious dishes alone." Jiang Ningbao stared at Zhang Shi without blinking, with a sneer on his lips.
Zhang's heart tightened, and fear spread in her heart. She did not expect that Jiang Ningbao would really recognize the seedless flower. Obviously the other party said that the seedless flower is very rare, and Jiang Ningbao would definitely not be able to recognize it.
But now... the two nuns invited by Madam Xie must have told Jiang Ningbao.
Zhang secretly hated the two nuns who spoiled her good deeds, but her face was full of shock and anger.
"Si girl, this is just your one-sided opinion. Who knows whether there is no seedless flower powder in the dishes. If it is really put, I just ate a portion, and I can be regarded as a victim."
Mrs. Zhang is now very glad that she ate that dish.
At this time, Jiang Jin suddenly found some dishes left on an empty bowl in front of Ningbao, and found that the remaining dishes were also on another bowl, her heart skipped a beat, she grabbed Jiang Ningbao's left wrist, and asked eagerly Said: "Ningbao, have you eaten yet?"
Jiang Ningbao smiled slightly, and patted the elder brother's arm with the other hand, with a warm smile: "Brother, don't worry, I will be fine."
These words were also told to Ding Guogong who was beside him.
But as soon as Duke Dingguo Xie Heng heard Jiang Jin's questioning, a terrifying and violent aura suddenly erupted from his body, his handsome and cold facial features made people palpitate, and his tone was as cold as the frost that had frozen into the bone marrow in winter.
"Xie Qi, send someone to the palace to invite the imperial physician."
All the people present were so overwhelmed by the cold and violent aura that they showed expressions of panic.
