Ning Mingjie looked at Wen Wan quietly, but he didn't intend to move, he just said: "I'll ask the coachman to call your maid, okay?"

Wen Wan's eyes dimmed, and she said in a low voice: "Wan'er is a maid herself, so she is not so delicate, she should go by herself."

Saying that, she got up and passed Ning Mingjie to get off the car, but fell on him in pain, her pretty face was flushed, and she bit her lip in annoyance, as if she was complaining about why she was so stupid.

Ning Mingjie reached out to help her up, but according to the rules, he only supported her wrist with one hand, and led her out of the car.

"Thank you... Wan'er is useless..." Wen Wan said with tears in her eyes, "No wonder Yuxuan treats me coldly recently. If only I were as smart as my wife..."

Ning Mingjie paused, and said with a low smile, "Everyone is different, there is only one woman like Sang Yu."

Wen Wan's face was a bit ugly, Ning Mingjie felt that he had slipped his words, and added: "Miss Wen is as good as Miss Wen."

"Master Biao, don't praise Wan'er, Wan'er knows she's not good." Wen Wan leaned all her weight on Ning Mingjie's hand, and walked forward on tiptoe. If Ning Mingjie wanted to support her, he could only Follow along.

Wen Wan walked straight in from the back door, the sky was gloomy, and it really snowed after a while. When the two walked to the rose garden, their shoulders were already wet.

"Master Biao, why don't you stay in Nanyuan." Wen Wan said softly, "It's snowing heavily and the road is far away. Wan'er asks someone to clean up the place."

Ning Mingjie was also used to living in the Hou Mansion. Looking at the sky outside, he pursed his lips and nodded.

Sandalwood went to clean up Nanyuan.

Ji Man has just had dinner and is embroidering a picture of Zhaojun going out of the fortress. Dim Wick came in with small steps, and said softly: "Master, there was a dispute in the kitchen. Chunfeng took Master Zheng's bird's nest and got into an argument with Luqiao. The slaves just passed by and reprimanded them, but Chunfeng was not convinced, so she went back and told them Xia family, that Xia family has always been unruly, took off his sleeves and went to the kitchen to overturn the bird's nest."

This picture is so emotional that Ji Man couldn't help chuckling. Xia's straightforwardness, she has the vigor of a farmer's woman, and it's also interesting that she can rush to lift the bird's nest.

"Master, why are you still laughing?" Dim Wick stomped his foot lightly: "It's almost a fight over there."

Putting down the embroidery needles, Ji Man got up and said, "It's so cold outside, you should warm your hands before going out. It's a big deal, just a bowl of bird's nest, take your time, don't worry."

Dim Wick let out an "hey", but still nimbly took the fox fur cloak and hands to Ji Man, went out to hold an umbrella, and helped her trot.

This girl is still bouncing around like this. When Licorice first left, Dim Wick's eyes were full of hatred. At that time, she was a little worried that she would be extreme, but now she has returned to her lively and bouncing appearance, which made her breathe a sigh of relief. .

However, the situation in the kitchen is really intense. Alfalfa also came, and for some reason, he and Xia Shi got together. Who cares about you with a bowl of things, let me kneel outside in winter? If you want to kneel, you kneel!"

Clover's face was flushed with anger, and all the maids around came to pull her, but Xia Shi struggled and kicked Clover several times.

"There's really no sense of dignity!" Clover said angrily, "Bringing a bastard back, I really think I am my master! If I make you kneel, you can still beat me? See if I beat you to death today, who would dare?" Tell me I'm wrong!"

Luqiao grabbed Xia Shi and got up, and she slapped her twice with her hands. Chunfeng Muyu was anxious to see it, so he hurried to pull it. Pushing and bumping, Ji Man who just came in was knocked out, his feet hooked on the threshold, and he fell.

Jiman: "..."

Sure enough, when women fight, they must stay away.

"Master!" Dim Wick didn't support her, and quickly pulled her up with a low cry, then turned her head and yelled at the noisy kitchen: "Stop!"

Clover and Xia Shi both paused, and when they looked at the door, both of them were startled, Clover quickly came over to help, while Xia Shi was a little embarrassed, stood there and rubbed his hands.

"What's the fuss about?" Ji Man felt his butt hurt, but now he had to put up his wife's face, and said with a straight face, "Do you think this is a vegetable market? Are you still fighting?"

The duck hanging upside down next to the kitchen "quacked" twice innocently.

Clover said aggrievedly: "Madam, let me be the master. Why should she come and get my concubine's bird's nest? Lu Qiao scolded her servant girl, but she dared to come here and hit me directly!"

Xia family was not convinced and said: "Didn't the bird's nest be returned to you? Why do you have to catch someone? Which maid was not raised by her father and mother. If you want your maid to give you two mouths, you can't let me call her back." gone?"

"You have no rules..." Clover was furious.

Ji Man pursed her lips and said, "Everyone makes a concession. A bowl of bird's nest has caused such a mess. Those who don't know think that the Hou Mansion lacks such things. Zheng Er will send people to Feiwan Pavilion, and the wicks will be supplied to you."

"Didn't Madam say that there should be rules in the mansion?" Clover refused to accept, "Xia Shi is just a concubine, but she committed a crime and beat her concubine in front of so many people. Does Madam just let that go?"

I don't know what's going on, but Clover seems to be very dissatisfied with Xia Shi, and Ji Man can't tell her directly that this is the person that Lord Hou cares about, Mo Yuhou cares about, even if she is a maid, she is not easy to mess with, why is Clover doing nothing with Xia Shi On the bar

Although Xia Shi was a bit rude, it was indeed difficult for her to handle this matter.

"I'll let you guys know when I think about the punishment." Ji Man rubbed his forehead and said, "It's all gone now, it's getting late, so don't crowd around here."

Clover was still unwilling, but could only salute, and left with Lu Qiao.

Ji Man sighed, pulled Xia Shi and asked, "How's it going?"

When mentioning the child, Xia Shi was much gentler, and said with a flat mouth: "I was still asleep when I came out, so you are not as cute as those young masters who cry day and night."

"Then I'll go back with you and have a look." Ji Man covered his waist and eyes. It's not easy to be the matriarch of this family. The water is level. Everyone is close, and no one is close. Everyone has to say good things in front of each other. , It is too difficult to hold enough shelves.

The fall just now was a bit heavy, and I don't know if it's important, but now I don't feel any pain when I walk, so let Deng wick rub the medicinal wine when I go back to Feiwan Pavilion.

Went to Cailian Pavilion for a while, hugged her who had been detoxified, and the little guy looked at her blankly, snotted and bubbling, and giggled.

Ji Man was finally in a better mood, and told the Xia family to be respectful and not to offend others, and then went back home.

The night was getting dark, Mo Yuhou didn't say where to sleep tonight, she might go to Feiwan Pavilion, she had to go back early.

Just a few steps from Cailian Pavilion is the guest garden of Nanyuan. Since Jing Wenhou's family left, this place has been vacant. Ji Man glanced casually, and found that there was actually a light on here.

"Did anyone visit the mansion?" Ji Man asked the lamp wick.

Dim Wick shook his head: "I haven't heard of anyone coming today."

Then how come there are lights? In the dark night, the surrounding room where Ning Mingjie lived was lit with lights.

Ji Man shivered, wrapped his cloak and was about to leave.

"Ma'am." Sandalwood's voice sounded from the side, calling her crisply.

Ji Man paused, and the wick next to him looked at the person and asked strangely, "Why are you here?"

Sandalwood came over to salute, and said obediently: "Master Hou was drunk and vomited as soon as he walked to Nanyuan. The servants can only put Master Hou here. Master Wan is not feeling well tonight, so I'm afraid I can't come to serve you. Since Madam happens to be here, let's take care of Lord Hou."

Is Ning Yuxuan drunk? Ji Man raised his eyebrows, how could such a calm and reserved person get drunk

As soon as he took a step, there was a heart-pounding pain in his waist, and Ji Man gasped, clutching his back and breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Did Madam sprain your waist?" Sandalwood quickly came over to support him, and said to Dengxin: "The hangover soup is in the small kitchen in Nanyuan, elder sister Dengxi go get it, and this servant will help Madam into it."

As he said that, he had already led Jiman inside.

Wick didn't think much, and turned to look for the small kitchen. Ji Man felt that something was wrong, but his waist and eyes hurt too much, thinking that if the sandalwood was still here, there shouldn't be any major problems, so he followed in.

She was still curious about what Mo Yuhou looked like when he was drunk.

As soon as she sat down, Sandalwood went to pour tea, and the door was closed with a soft sound. Ji Man rubbed his waist lightly and didn't hear it. It took him a while to recover, when he heard a surprised voice: "Sang Yu?"

Ji Man's heart skipped a beat, and when he turned around, he saw Ning Mingjie standing in the partition.

A lot of clips flashed through his mind in an instant, and Ji Man's first reaction was to jump up and pull the door, forgetting about his back injury for an instant.

The door was locked, and the buckle on the outside was locked, Ji Man gave a wry smile, that's too bad.

This kind of obvious framing, once caught, would be immersed in a pig cage, actually happened to her. Sandalwood was also really brave, and told her clearly who was going to harm her, but it was impossible to argue with this kind of thing when she was caught.

Ji Man looked back at Ning Mingjie in despair.

Judging by her reaction, Ning Mingjie was not stupid. He moved a stool on one side, stepped on the window sill, and climbed along the edge to the beam. Ji Man was dumbfounded by the swiftness and chicness of his movements.

Quickly helping to move the chair back to its original place, Ji Man flicked his waist again, and sat back on the chair with a grin.

The door lock rang again, but Ji Man didn't get up to pull it, but just sat with his hands on his waist, with a painful look on his face.

"Why are you here?" Mo Yuhou followed Tan Xiang in, and Tan Xiang was still worried: "My servant didn't go out after seeing Madam coming here, maybe it's because of some discomfort..."

Raising his eyes and scanning the room, Sandalwood was stunned, where is the person

Ning Yuxuan walked in a few steps, looked at Ji Man's expression, and chuckled lightly: "What's the matter?"

"I fell down while dealing with things in the kitchen just now." Ji Man said, looking at him curiously, "Isn't Hou Ye drunk? Didn't Sandalwood lure my concubine in to say that Hou Ye needs to take care of him?"
