Ning Xueyao bit her lip, and when she raised her head again, her face was determined.
"Sister, it was Caiyunju who told my aunt that my father has not dared to marry to fill a house for so many years because of the suppression from your grandfather. If we can control the Xie family, then we can take the opportunity to thank Xie.
My family makes any requests, including things that require me to record them in my aunt’s name.”
"Eldest sister, you and the second sister, one has the status of a legitimate daughter, and the other is favored by the emperor and the prince, but I have nothing. Seeing that I am about to get my haircut, my marriage is not settled, and neither is my aunt.
I did something wrong because I was anxious, sister, please forgive me."
Ning Xueyao's tears rolled down her face as she spoke, but Ning Wanli looked at her like this. She didn't see any regret, but she could see some real unwillingness and grievance.
She stretched out her fingers, lifted her chin, and forced her to look at her.
"I really feel pity for you. The beauty of the third sister is no less than that of the second sister. They are also concubines. The second sister lives a more prosperous life than me, the legitimate daughter. Third sister, tell me, in this house, the legitimate concubine
Is it an important matter?"
Ning Xueyao was stunned, not knowing what she meant by this.
Ning Wan continued: "As a legitimate daughter, I am not as good as you two concubines. Do you think it is really because I am ugly and stupid? No, of course it is because my biological mother died young, so you tried every means to
Why bother to be remembered in the name of an aunt who has no way to support you? If being remembered in the name of your aunt can really improve your status, then why does the second sister let you go? She really has a deep affection for you as a sister.
?"
Ning Wan's words were like an enlightenment in an instant, awakening Ning Xueyao.
Yes, Ning Xian'er is also a concubine. She still wants to marry the prince, but she doesn't really want to be a legitimate daughter, which shows that the legitimate concubine is not the most important thing at all.
Ning Wan saw that his words had an effect, so he added more firewood.
"Third sister, you see, you came here to cause trouble for me, and it's you and your daughter who will be punished. Caiyunju doesn't take any risks."
Ning Xueyao's eyes shrank violently, and the hands hidden in her sleeves suddenly clenched.
Ning Wan raised her hand to straighten her hair that fell to her forehead, and her tone became gentler.
"Well, for the sake of us being sisters in the same house, I will take you to the flower viewing party in two days."
Ning Xueyao didn't expect Ning Wan to agree so easily, and she couldn't recover for a while.
Seeing this, Banxia hurriedly came to see her out, pouring her some soup while walking.
"Third Miss, don't worry, we are all sisters from the same house. Don't you still know how our eldest lady has treated you over the years? Can you tell us whether it was our eldest lady who instigated you every time you were punished?"
Ning Xueyao couldn't come back to her senses until she was sent out of the hospital for a long time. She kept thinking about Ning Wan's words in her mind, and she felt that her mind was in a mess.
After sending the people away, Banxia returned to the house.
"Miss, do you think there is some truth or lies in the words of the third lady? If it is true that Caiyunju wants Baozhu's life, what happened to the Yu family before?"
He colluded with the guards and assassinated him, causing the whole house to panic.
Ning Wan took a sip of tea and said calmly: "There is nothing unreasonable about this. Caiyunju always likes to kill people with a borrowed knife. She can instigate Tingxue Pavilion, and naturally she can also instigate others. As long as that person has an agenda, she will always
She can catch the opportunity and take advantage of it."
Thinking back to the first half of the original owner's life, didn't her second sister play such a role?
However, she was more curious, how did the Yu family get involved with Caiyunju, who was obviously put in by someone with ulterior motives?
Two days later.
Ning Wan took the carefully dressed Ning Xianer and Ning Xueyao into the palace in a carriage.
"Third sister, please sit next to me for a while. You are not familiar with the palace. Please don't wander around for a while. If you want to pay tribute, remember to call me."
After getting off the carriage, Ning Xianer gave Ning Xueyao some thoughtful advice.
Unexpectedly, because Ning Wan's words before had a certain impact on Ning Xueyao's heart, when she heard her say these words now, she immediately felt that she was showing off to herself that she had entered the palace more times.
She knows the way better than she does.
Moreover, by letting her sit next to her, it sounded like he was taking care of her sister, but in fact, he was just trying to set off herself.
They were both concubines, but she, Ning Xueyao, was as low as dust, while she, Ning Xianer, was as tall as the stars and the moon.
Thinking of this, Ning Xueyao, who was not good at hiding her emotions, said with a cold face: "No need, I just sit next to eldest sister."
Ning Xianer was startled, thinking that she heard wrongly.
Didn't this fool always love to flatter her? Now she actually said that she wanted to sit with that fool!
Thinking of this, Ning Xianer held Ning Xueyao's hand and said softly: "Third sister, what's wrong with you? Did you hear something said by others?"
As she said that, she glanced at Ning Wan meaningfully.
