However, Su Ningxin will definitely not agree to this marriage. She has been in the capital for so many years and has some knowledge of the Zhenguo Palace. The water in that house is deeper than the palace. If she wants to marry into the Zhenguo Palace, she might as well let her marry. She went back to the palace to work as a salted fish.
She didn't want to come out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's mouth again. Although she wouldn't be bullied even if she went to the Zhenguo Palace due to her ability, she was really done with the house fighting and didn't want to do it again for the rest of her life.
"What's Mr. Su San's reaction?" Su Ningxin asked, probably Mr. Su San wouldn't dare to make the decision for her.
"Master Su San came to our courtyard yesterday and asked the slave to tell him that the girl was seriously ill and did not get up to send him home. After that, he did not give any accurate words. He only said that he would invite the old lady from the nunnery back and ask the old lady to give him the order. have a look."
"Not sure? Those people in the backyard must be thinking about it again, right?" Su Ningxin smiled sarcastically. These people only saw that the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion was a high-ranking family, but they didn't realize that their daughter couldn't climb such a lintel. Climb up.
After Shuanghua finished speaking, her face started to look a little weird, "Not only the backyard of Xingyuan Mansion, but also the backyard of Xuanning Hou Mansion in the capital, many people have started to think about it. Those three-bedroom aunts who stayed in the capital and the other few families all want to Let’s fight for it.”
Su Ningxin's expression also became strange. If she remembered correctly, the children left in the capital by the third family were all very young, less than ten years old. They were worried that they would not be able to withstand the fatigue of traveling and traveling, so they did not come here. Such young children Auntie, do you want to fight for them too
As for the other rooms in the Marquis Xuanning Mansion, it is Master Su San's kindness to the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion. They have to step in and have a thick skin. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tusk. trouble.
"Let them make trouble on their own, we won't interfere." Su Ningxin commented.
"Girl," Shuanghua paused, "I'm afraid you have been involved."
Su Ningxin looked at Shuanghua in confusion. She had never left the courtyard in Su Mansion, so how could she be related to her.
Shuang Hua blamed herself a little, "Someone put something into the medicine boiled in the yard. It was discovered by the maid An An that the girl brought back. She said that the smell of the medicine yesterday was different from the past."
"That girl An'an has a really sharp nose. If she could learn some medical skills, she might even be a miracle doctor. Unfortunately, none of us are good at any of the three medical skills. If there is a chance, we can send her to the boss." Su Ningxin praised her. Zhong Xian actually comforted Shuanghua.
It's not Shuang Hua's fault for not being able to discover that the medicine was poisoned. She has some talent in embroidery and cooking, but not in medicine. Even Su Ningxin herself only knows some superficial medical skills, which can make her a secret. Wei will not be easily plotted, and he is far from the level of Xuanhu Jishi.
"Have you found out who poisoned him?" Shuangbai, who had been silent, asked.
"It was a little maid in charge of decoction in the yard. Ebony was found from her room. Aunt Lin interrogated her. At first she said it was Aunt Zhao, but later she confessed that it was Aunt Mo who asked her to poison her. If If you are caught, blame Aunt Zhao." Shuanghua couldn't help but feel nervous when she mentioned Nanny Lin.
Su Ningxin was not surprised by this. In the past, the maids in Chonghua Palace were all under the control of Granny Lin. She had been in the palace all her life and she knew how to deal with the servants best. When people in the palace heard her name She was afraid, but the victory was that she had always been loyal to her master, so she was protected by her master and was not harmed.
Su Ningxin took her out of the palace because she wanted her to take good care of herself in her old age, but she didn't expect that she would still have to do things for her. Thinking about it, she was a little embarrassed.
On the other hand, Aunt Mo, who usually kept quiet, looked so uncontested. It didn't look like Aunt Zhao had children and was running rampant around her, nor did she look like Aunt Fang, who relied on her youth and beauty to win the favor of the master and be arrogant. It turned out that He is also a biting dog.
Aunt Mo's presence in the Su family is usually very low. She has only one daughter, who is the same age as Su Ningxin's sister Su Jiaxin, only a few months younger. Su Ningxin remembers that her name seems to be Su Wanxin, and like her aunt, she is also an inconspicuous girl. Mountain dew.
"She would think that by poisoning me, she would be able to free up the position of betrothed to the Duke of Zhenguo, and then point the finger directly at Aunt Zhao. Su Jiaxin has already been engaged, and Aunt Zhao's daughter has been excluded, so the only candidate for the engagement is It could be Su Wanxin."
Su Ningxin curled her lips, "Find someone to reveal this matter to Aunt Zhao casually, so as not to make her suspicious. I just don't know how much fighting power she still has even though she is bedridden."
"What should I do with that little maid?" Shuanghua asked. If such a slave betrayed his master in the palace, he would be beaten to death directly, but now they are in the Su Mansion and they don't have enough manpower. If they are not careful, bad news will spread. reputation.
Although Su Ningxin never cared about reputation, why give the clues to others when she could avoid it.
Su Ning thought for a moment, "Don't deal with it now. Wait until dad comes back and invite him over."
After that, Su Ningxin added, "What is An An doing in the yard? Let her serve in the house from now on. As for the servants in the yard, I'll trouble Granny Lin to train them. Stay loyally and spend your time to buy. Some new ones are coming in.”
Shuanghua nodded and went out to make arrangements. Aunt Lin didn't interfere much in this yard. She was always in charge of it. She was to blame for something like this. Sure enough, she still had a lot to learn.
Su Ningxin also had this intention behind her arrangement. She even dared to poison a little maid. This yard really needs to be renovated.
Not long after Shuanghua left, Zhong Xian appeared at the door, hesitant to come in. Su Ningxin, who was reading travel notes, spotted her, smiled at her and waved her hand to come in.
Zhong Xian knelt in front of Su Ningxin after entering the door, "Sister Shuanghua said that the girl sent the slave to serve in the house, and the slave thanked the girl."
Zhong Xian said and bowed down. Su Ningxin accepted her bow calmly and then let her get up.
Although she used to be an official lady, she was no longer the moment the Zhong family was convicted. If she could not recognize her identity, Su Ningxin would not reuse her. After all, no one wanted to raise a eldest lady. Be around.
Seeing Zhong Xian's performance, Su Ningxin was still very satisfied, "From now on, you can just clean the room. When you have nothing to do, you can read a book. I see that you have a keen sense of smell, so you can try to learn some medical skills."
Su Ningxin waved to Shuangbai, "Shuangbai, I remember that among the books I brought over were some of the boss's medical books, you can find them out and show them to Xiao An when you have time."
"I'll go look for you now." Shuangbai responded with a smile, then turned around and went to the Buddhist hall to look for books.
Seeing Shuangbai leave, Su Ningxin turned to Zhong Xian and said, "Studying medicine depends on fate and talent. If you are interested, just take a look. If you can't learn it, don't force it."
"Thank you, girl, I understand." There seemed to be light in Zhong Xian's eyes. She knew very well that only if she has the strength can she control her own destiny, and learning medical skills is an opportunity.
