No matter what, Ning Yujin finally settled in Wutong Courtyard.
In the evening, Yapo led more than ten teenage girls to the front yard of Wutong Courtyard, and lined up one by one.
Ning Yujin picked a few honestly and pleasantly, and named them after the medicines, namely Perilla, Forsythia, Pinellia ternata, and Peilan.
Let Xia Zhu lead a few people to take a bath, disinfect and put on new clothes, and all the facilities of Wutong Courtyard will be ready.
Before dinner, Ning Yujin took Cuilan and two second-class girls and walked through the long corridor to the eldest lady's courtyard.
Aunt Li was also there and secretly smiled at her.
Ning Yujin nodded slightly, then walked forward calmly and saluted the eldest lady: "Mother."
"Three girls are here." When the eldest lady saw Ning Yujin coming, she gave a rare smile and waved to her, "Come here quickly, sit down and talk."
Ning Yujin hurriedly walked over and sat down on the stool next to the eldest lady.
"How is the new yard? Is it comfortable to live in?" asked the eldest lady.
"Wutong Courtyard couldn't be better, but it's the place where the eldest sister lives. It's really a waste of money to give it to my daughter." Ning Yujin said, and lowered her head in shame.
The eldest lady smiled and patted her hand: "Hey, your eldest sister is already married, and the yard is empty. It's a good use of everything for you to live in. You also know that there used to be a place in Piaoling Garden.
That one hasn't stopped, and I haven't paid much attention to you, causing you to suffer so much, and now it's time to compensate you."
Ning Yujin quickly shook her head: "What are you talking about, mother? You don't have children to eat or clothe your daughter, and you always provide her with soup and medicine when she's sick. When did you let your daughter suffer?"
The eldest lady looked at Ning Yujin's humble appearance and nodded with satisfaction.
Although he had some twisted thoughts, he was still respectful and sensible, and did not play any tricks on her.
She asked again: "How about the girls I gave you? Are they easy to use? How about you pick some from my room?"
"No need, mother!" Ning Yujin quickly waved her hand and said, "Sister Cuilan is very capable and keeps the house in order. She is also very obedient in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and I don't need to worry about anything. Usually the house is deserted.
Yes, there are so many people here all of a sudden, I don’t feel comfortable yet.”
The eldest lady smiled and nodded Ning Yujin's head: "Silly girl, what's wrong with you? You have to remember that you are the young lady of the Ningbo Mansion. When you get married, you will be the master, and you will be treated like a slave wherever you go.
Crowds of people surrounded me.”
When Ning Yujin heard the word "marriage", her heart skipped a beat, thinking that what was supposed to come had finally come.
She bowed her head shyly at the right time: "Mother~~"
"Haha, look at you, you are still shy." The eldest lady covered her lips and laughed, but in the blink of an eye she changed to a look of regret, "Oh, you should be lucky, but it's a pity that you are a legitimate concubine.
Obviously, with your status here, I don’t know if you can marry into a better family."
Ning Yujin really wanted to say, can you please stop worrying about our affairs?
But what came out was: "There is a mother who looks after her daughter, and the daughter trusts her mother's vision."
"That's natural. If you call me mother, I won't harm you." The eldest lady glanced at Ning Yujin and said, "Whenever there is a good opportunity, I will keep an eye out for you.
"
Ning Yujin hurriedly said: "My daughter has thanked her mother first."
"We are all a family, what nonsense are you talking about." The eldest lady smiled again, and then sighed again, "You said that our mother and daughter can still talk together. I pity your eldest sister, she is alone.
I don’t know if anyone can speak to me in the palace.”
Ning Yujin looked at the eldest lady and said nothing, pretending to be stupid.
The eldest lady looked at Ning Yujin's expression and knew that if she didn't point it out, she would keep pretending to be stupid until the end, so she simply said it plainly: "Look, your eldest sister has sent people to ask you several times to ask you to come and stay when you are free."
God, let’s talk to her. She is the mother-in-law after all, so it’s not good to run to her mother’s house all the time, don’t you think so?”
"Let me go to Prince Xing's Mansion?" Ning Yujin finally grasped the point.
The eldest lady gave her a "good opportunity to pay attention", and Ning Yuyan asked her to "stay here for a few days." The two mother and daughter sang together to coax her into Prince Xing's palace.
Ning Yujin thought about it carefully. After she gave the eldest lady some advice, Ning Yuyan's attitude towards her seemed to have softened a lot, at least he gave her something after a while.
At that time, she thought that Ning Yuyan had given up the idea of carrying her into Prince Xing's Mansion.
After all, with Ning Yuyan's cautious and on-guard temperament, it was impossible for her to get a difficult opponent into her house.
But later on the Dragon Boat Festival, Ning Yuyan suddenly became nice to her again and even greeted her for a long time.
Why?
Why did she come back to the uncle's house instead of going to the palace?
Princess Xing is pregnant!
When Ning Yujin thought of this, everything suddenly made sense.
The number of heirs in Prince Xing's palace is very few, all because the intrigues among the women in the back house are too fierce.
What does Quan Ning Bo Mansion mean?
Aunt Zhao, who could only cry, make trouble, and hang herself, would be killed every minute in Prince Xing's Mansion.
Those women are often strangled in the cradle as soon as their bellies have some movement.
It's been several years since Ning Yuyan entered Prince Xing's Mansion, and I haven't heard any news about her until now.
And Princess Xing's pregnancy was like a bombshell, which was suddenly thrown into the deep water. On the surface, everything seemed to be fine, but underneath there were already turbulent waves and endless turbulence.
I'm afraid Ning Yuyan's current life won't be any better.
Otherwise, she would not still take risks even though she knew that he might be disadvantageous to her.
"Well, we are all women, why should women make things difficult for women?" Ning Yujin couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Miss, what are you talking about?" Cuilan asked quickly.
Ning Yujin came back to her senses, shook her head hurriedly and said: "It's nothing, I was just thinking about what to eat tonight."
I have been out of the eldest lady's room for a while. I have sorted out all my thoughts along the way and thought about countermeasures from many aspects. I am not afraid of Ning Yuyan being tough.
I'm just afraid that she's here to cause trouble.
Tomorrow she will go to Prince Xing's Mansion. Although it is not as tightly guarded by shadow guards as Prince Ding's Mansion, there are still a number of masters trained there. Whether they can bring these 08 with them is another matter.
"Miss, these are the dishes Xiangyue prepared tonight, do you think there is anything else you would like to add?"
At the moment when Ning Yujin was wandering again, Cuilan had already finished naming a series of dishes.
