Beautiful husband and wife in pastoral space

Chapter 240 Chapter 240: The scorpion fell into the pond? (four more)

In the main courtyard, in Mr. Ning's study, Mr. Ning was sitting on a large chair, leaning against the back of the chair. He looked much more energetic than yesterday. Maybe it was because he found his little daughter back!

Sitting on the side, Wu Shi lowered her head, looking unhappy.

Ning Yuanshan also frowned, sitting opposite Mrs. Wu, and Mrs. Ning sat beside Ning Yuanshan.

When Liu Erlong and Nishang Hong'er came in together, this was what they saw.

Liu Erlong silently walked to Wu Shi's side and stood there.

Nishang and Hong'er also leaned over to Wu Shi and stood behind Wu Shi.

Nishang looked around the study room, and saw a painting hanging on the wall behind the old man, and the person in that painting was indeed very similar to herself.

This is the real grandma, Nishang thought, I wonder why the old man hangs this painting here?miss old people?Or warn those in the know.

Old Master Ning glanced at them, and said slowly, "Hong'er, there is a box at the door of your room, do you know?"

Hong'er shook her head blankly, "I don't know, Grandpa, I went to bed early!"

"What about you, Nishang, when did you know there was a box at the door of your room?" The old man frowned and looked at Nishang.

Since seeing Nishang's true face yesterday, this old man seems to be a lot more easygoing with Nishang.

"Last night, I woke up and found a box at the door. I thought it was breakfast brought by the maids at dawn. When I opened it, I found it was full of scorpions. I was so scared that I quickly closed the lid again, fearing that Hong'er and My mother was terrified, she carried it outside and dumped it!"

"The gate is guarded at night, how did you get out?" the old man asked again indifferently.

"I didn't go out the gate, I fell into the pond under the rockery."

"What did you say?" Mrs. Ning and Ning Yuanshan roared in shock.

"What's wrong?" Nishang was surprised.

"There are a lot of fish in that pond. The fish that your grandfather drinks in fish soup every day is caught there."

"The scorpion was eaten by those fish, isn't it also poisonous?"

The couple said anxiously.

"Uh... I don't know!" Nishang blinked innocently.

"How many scorpions did you pour in?" Madam Ning asked.

Nishang thought for a while, then looked at the box on the side table, "It seems that there are dozens of them!"

"You girl is really..." Madam Ning cursed through gritted teeth, and quickly swallowed back the words.

Because the old man is staring at her!
"If you can't eat it, it's fine if you don't eat it!" The old man said lightly.

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Nishang and said, "Aren't you afraid of scorpions?"

"Don't be afraid, grandpa. When my sister and I were digging wild vegetables in the mountains, we often encountered scorpions. After being stung once, we are not afraid anymore!" Nishang shook his head.

Mr. Ning heard the important point, "You still have a sister?"

Ning Yuanshan and Mrs. Ning also looked over.

"Uh... there used to be one, but my sister..." Nishang stopped at this point, silently lowering her head to look at Wu Shi in front of her.

"Why do you hesitate to speak? If you have it, you have it, if you don't, you don't have it. A 12-year-old is not good at talking?" Mrs. Ning has hated Nishang inexplicably since she saw the real face of Nishang last night.

At this moment, Mrs. Wu raised her head and looked at Mrs. Ning, "Why should sister-in-law be angry with a child? Nishang didn't say it directly because she was afraid that I would be sad. Our eldest daughter died two years ago!"

"..." There was a sudden silence in the room.

Nishang glanced at the three members of the Ning family indifferently, and finally looked at Mrs. Ning, "There are some things, if you don't understand, it's best not to talk nonsense. Back then, because my sister passed away, my mother was so sad that she fell into a coma for a whole hundred days. , I finally woke up, and now I don’t want to say it directly, because I don’t want to make my mother sad!”

Mrs. Ning and Bai's lips moved, but she didn't say a word.

Today's Mrs. Ning and yesterday's Mrs. Ning who is always smiling in everything are almost like two people. Nishang is really curious, what kind of stimulation has this Bai family received?

Old man Ning was silent for a while, then nodded, "Okay, Rou'er, go back and rest, I will investigate this matter and give your family an explanation."

Wu was silent for a while, nodded, and stood up, "Father, we are going back tomorrow. There are many things at home, and the crops in the field should be harvested!"

Mr. Ning was taken aback, "Can't we stay longer?"

Mrs. Wu shook her head, "I will come to see you again when I have a chance!"

Old man Ning waved his hands irritably, "Let's go, let's go!"

With old man Ning's permission, Liu Erlong, Nishang and Hong'er breathed a sigh of relief.

This place is really not a place for people to stay.

After returning, Wu Shi said to Nishang and Hong'er: "Don't go outside to play in the afternoon, you two, just play in the yard. We will go home tomorrow. One less thing is one thing."

Nishang and Hong'er nodded obediently.

Wu Shi and Liu Erlong went back to the house to talk.

"What did they say?" Liu Erlong asked in a low voice.

Wu frowned and said: "Brother and sister-in-law insisted that Hong'er framed the girl. My father didn't say anything, he just asked me to put the box down."

Liu Erlong nodded, "It seems that your father knows what's going on, have you noticed, your eldest brother and sister-in-law's attitude towards us has completely changed since this morning, yesterday you can still face it, today, It's completely disfigured."

"Because my father gave me a house in the town, which is a courtyard house, and asked us to move here in the future. He also gave me two shops so that we could do some small business by ourselves. And that yard and shop, I Big brother asked my father for a long time, but my father didn't give it to me. In fact, my father bought that yard for my mother to live in."

"Your father already gave you the house deed?" Liu Erlong was surprised.

"No, he said he would give it to me after he made my name for me! Presumably, the big brother didn't like us because of this!" Mrs. Wu shook her head.

Liu Erlong didn't know whether to be happy or sad, this rich family really had a solid foundation, and it took a blink of an eye to give one house two shops.

"I see, in this family, no one cares about our family." Liu Erlong sighed.

Mrs. Wu nodded, "Of course, if our family is rich and richer than them, see if they will care about us!"

Liu Erlong smiled self-deprecatingly, "Yes, that's the reason. I, a son-in-law who grows a large field, must not be valued by them."

"Sir, I didn't mean that!" Wu asked in a low voice.

"It's okay, these things, I can see clearly, let's go home, it's complicated in this big family! By the way, you have to be careful of those two girls." Liu Erlong instructed.

Wu nodded.

Nishang and Hong'er both read books and practice calligraphy together in Hong'er's room.

Since Mother said they couldn't go out, of course they didn't dare to go out. If anything happened, no one in the Ning Mansion would protect them.
