Chapter 168 The marriage is not her own (6)
It is true to say so, but a hard-hearted woman like Ning Xi, even if she has become a sister-in-law with herself, she will only trample herself to death. take care of? Ha, next life! But Ning Yue will not quarrel with the old lady. She is very clear about the old lady's character, and it is not difficult for someone to force her. When the key to her is given to her, the matter will be brought to light. He delayed opening his mouth until today, presumably in the past few days, when she was away, someone did something to touch the heart of the old lady, and made the old lady feel pity for the Millennium Court. She couldn't directly refuse this matter, otherwise, she would get into a fight with the old lady. But if she really wants to take advantage of that poisonous woman Ma Ningxi, she will not be reconciled.
After thinking about it, she bowed her body and said with a slight smile: "Grandmother is right, no matter what happened before, I will rely on my sister to live in the future. This dowry is not unfair. I will go to the Millennium Court now. Ask my sister what she likes, and share a good life with her."
The old lady nodded, her eyes showed satisfaction: "Among all the children, you are the most understanding person. Don't worry, I will also subsidize you more!"
Ning Yue smiled and said thank you.
The little maid came in with the meal, Ning Yue used some of it briefly, and was sent out by Baozhu.
Once out of the courtyard door, Ning Yue took Baozhu's hand and walked behind the tree, looked around to make sure no one was there, and said in a low voice, "My dear sister, tell me what happened in the mansion during the days I was away?" What's the matter?"
Although she asked Qiuxiang about it, but with Qiuxiang's temperament, even bad words would be ineffective.
Baozhu pointed in the direction of the Millennium Courtyard, staring and said: "She is not easy to mess with. After you left, she asked to come here to greet the old lady every day. She has bad legs and is sitting in a wheelchair. It is difficult to kowtow to the old lady." I have to be helped by someone. Every night, crying like something, the whole general's mansion can't hear it. The old lady told her not to cry so loudly, so she showed her legs. It was the doctor's prescription. Zaizhi was pierced with needles all over his body, no wonder he was crying miserably, so the old lady didn't say anything."
Qiuxiang only said that Lin Yonghe was crying, but she didn't say that Lin Yonghe used such a tiger-like method to heal his legs.
Baozhu continued: "Second Miss' condition is not good either, she developed pneumonia and coughed up blood, coughing up to now, she can't speak at all. I have to keep this matter from the palace, if the princess knows about it, then I will pay it back." Got it? I'm afraid I won't be able to marry."
It turned out to be pneumonia, and it is very dangerous for adults to get pneumonia. Ning Yue nodded, looked at Baozhu, and signaled her to continue.
Baozhu said: "The fourth young master's situation is even worse. He was supposed to take the scientific examination, but he dropped out of school to take care of his mother and younger sister."
Actually dropped out of school! Isn't this self-defeating? Although Ma Jinyan is not as smart as Ma Keqing, he is better than Ma Keqing in his diligence, and he is not much behind Ma Keqing in terms of knowledge. In his previous life, he was able to sit in a high position, not entirely because of Ning Xi's nepotism. Shuo admired the place.
Three mother and son, the disabled, the sick, the only backer and most of the future ruined, almost no hope in sight, no wonder the old lady insisted on giving Ning Xi half of her mother's dowry.
What Ning Yue couldn't figure out was, why did they make themselves so miserable? If the legs are not good, it is not good. Take it easy, what kind of tiger and wolf remedies are you looking for? Also, mother and younger sister are already on the verge of tossing about, as a man, they should be the leader, why did they give up on themselves instead? I'm not afraid that my father will kill him if he finds out!
Ning Yue vaguely felt that things were not that simple.
