Chapter 10
Ning Wanzhu was so frightened by the figure outside the window that her heart almost jumped out of her chest.Just at this moment, there was a sound at the gate of the courtyard.Yan Hui was holding an umbrella and a copper pot in his hand, coming in from the yard.

After entering the room, Yanhui was startled by Ning Wanzhu's terrified face and the fragments of the teacup on the ground, and quickly asked, "Second Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Ning Wanzhu was still in shock, and her heart was still beating wildly. She pointed out the window and said in a trembling voice, "I was about to drink tea when I suddenly saw someone outside... I don't know if it's a human or a ghost..."

Yan Hui put the copper pot in her hand on the table, and muttered, "I don't just fetch hot water, where can I get tea in the house?" She turned around and looked out the window.

Coincidentally, another flash of lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled across the sky.The window that shocked Ning Wanzhu just now is now empty and there is no vision.Yan Hui was worried, so he went out to take a look again, and made sure that there was no one else in the small courtyard except their master and servant.She pouted and muttered in a low voice: "What's wrong with the second miss, did you see a ghost during the day?" Looking back, she saw Ning Wanzhu paler, standing in the room, pointing at the table on the table. Teapot and cup, said: "If you have never made tea before, where did the... on this table come from?"

Now it was Yanhui's turn to turn pale, and said, "No...no...I, I don't know!"

At this time, Ning Wanzhu had recovered from her horror, forced herself to calm down, and asked slowly: "How long have you been out, did you really not make any tea when you left?" At this time, she recalled just now Although she didn't see the figure outside the window clearly when she was frightened, she thought it was the one who put the tea on her table, so she simply covered her face and pretended to be a ghost outside because she was afraid that she would find out.

Thinking of this, Ning Wanzhu clenched her hands, and said to Yan Hui, "Quietly, go and invite Mother Ye and Sister Mo Mei over."

Yan responded, patted Ning Wanzhu's hand to reassure her, and went out in the pouring rain, and after a while, invited both Nanny Ye and Mo Mei from the courtyard next door.

The torrential rain in autumn comes and goes quickly. By the time Mammy Ye and the others came over, the rain had cleared and the clouds had cleared. Water was dripping down.As soon as Nanny Ye and Mo Mei came in, they saw Ning Wanzhu standing in front of the table in a daze. On the ground in front of her was a broken teacup with tea spilled on the floor.

Ning Wanzhu took a deep breath, and said to Mo Mei: "Sister Mo Mei, let's go to the gate of the courtyard and talk to Yan Hui, I just want to be alone with Mammy for a while."

Mo Mei's shiny black eyes rolled, and she immediately understood what Ning Wanzhu meant, she immediately took Yan Hui's hand, and said, "Let's go, let's play at the gate of the courtyard."

Only Mother Ye and Ning Wanzhu were left in the room.With trembling hands, Ning Wanzhu poured another bowl of tea from the teapot on the table, handed it to Nanny Ye, and asked in a trembling voice, "Mommy, look... is there any problem with this tea?"

Upon hearing this, Mother Ye glanced at Ning Wanzhu, pulled out a silver hairpin from her head, and dipped one end of the hairpin in the tea.After a while, I took out the silver hairpin again, and one end of the hairpin had already started to turn black.Seeing this situation, Ning Wanzhu thought about it again, if it wasn't for that Ji Jiao Lei just now, she might have already drank that cup of tea soup.She had already recovered some blood on her face, but seeing the change of the hairpin with her own eyes, Ning Wanzhu's face immediately turned pale again.

She dug her nails deeply into the palm of her hand, asking herself repeatedly in her heart, is there really such a great hatred, so that the poisoner must put herself to death?
"This kind of poison is used a lot by those noble people in Beijing. It works very quickly, but it is not necessarily unsolvable. But since we know that someone poisoned us, we can take precautions. Therefore, Ning Er Miss, don't worry too much, at this time, the more you show fear and timidity, the more you will hit other people's arms, and let others see through your weakness." Ye Nanny raised her head calmly, and looked at Ning Wanzhu.

Ning Wanzhu looked up at Mammy Ye, feeling that there was something in Mama Ye's words.She simply pretended to be a child, raised her face, and asked Madam Ye: "I don't understand what Madam Ye said!"

"The old man believes in the words of the second lady even more now!" Ye Momo looked at her with a smile and asked, with a gentle expression on her face, as if she was talking to a young girl.

Ning Wanzhu was stunned when she heard the words, and immediately remembered her question—Mother Ye is an adult, and she has been in a place like the palace for many years.When Ye Momo came over, the two met for the first time, but how could Ye Momo believe her just based on the mere words she wrote?
Ye Momo saw all the expressions on Ning Wan's vermilion face, and said: "The four words that Miss Ning wrote on the paper back then were really shocking, if it hadn't fallen into the hands of old people, I'm afraid It's bound to be bad!"

Ning Wanzhu remembered that when she first met Ye Momo, out of a kind of trust from the bottom of her heart, she wrote four words that could explain everything, and handed it to Ye Momo, and asked her to hand it over to her. Mother and uncle.However, when I think about it now, these are not only bold and reckless, they are simply taking risks. If I entrust someone to someone else, or if Madam Ye becomes suspicious and asks Aunt Shao, my life may be on the line immediately.

"It was the first time I saw the two young ladies of the Ning family that day, and I naturally felt that you were the first lady, and the entire Ning family seemed to be blinded by illusions." Nanny Ye explained to Ning Wanzhu frankly, "On the other side of the eldest lady, it seems that she is always trying to prove that she is superior and her status is superior to others, but such eagerness has made the old man suspicious. Now that many strange things have happened, it is all because she wants to get rid of the second lady and hurry up. It seems to be a little more clear.”

It turned out to be like this——Ning Wanzhu finally understood that the reason why Nanny Ye was willing to believe in herself was because of her magnanimity.In the previous life, she was born with the status of a prostitute, so she never had the intention to fight deliberately, but in this life, she still has no ability to compete with Ning Luozi.In contrast, Ning Luozi hoped to keep her "stolen" identity firmly in her hands in this life, so she was too eager to show herself in front of others, so she was spotted by Ye Momo.

Mother Ye, her eyes are not poisonous!

Ning Wanzhu couldn't help raising her head and looked at the nanny carefully.I saw her with gray hair and an indigo forehead, but the skin under the forehead was fair and beautiful, just like a young woman in her 30s or [-]s.It's just that there are many wrinkles in the corners of Mammy Ye's eyes, revealing Mammy's real age, and also a little bit of how many storms she has experienced in the first half of her life.

Nanny Ye accepted Ning Wanzhu's gaze very calmly, and after a while, she turned around, looked deeply at Ning Wanzhu, and said to her, "Second Miss, but I have always been unable to understand one thing. Since Miss knows her identity, how can she be willing to be tampered with, is there some unspeakable secret?"

Now it was Ning Wanzhu's turn to be dumbfounded. She had never thought about this issue before, so she couldn't tell Mother Ye that she had been a concubine for more than twenty years in her previous life, and then she was born again.

Seeing her hesitation, Mother Ye showed a puzzled look in her eyes.Ning Wanzhu's heart trembled, knowing that if this answer could not satisfy Ye Momo, then she might not be able to get such a strong support.She pondered for a while, and finally told Ye Momo slowly that she was "switched" to become Second Miss Ning not long after her biological mother passed away.At that time, I was young and ignorant, and I was locked in my room to play all day long, and I couldn't see outsiders all day long. I couldn't remember whether I was the second lady or the eldest lady.However, one night, she had a dream from her biological mother, in which her biological mother confessed her identity...

Ning Wanzhu didn't dare to go into too many details, and only talked about the past, because she was too young to remember, but it was obvious that she encountered danger and oppression again and again recently.

When Ning Wanzhu spoke slowly, Ye Momo kept staring at her expression closely, as if judging whether what she said was true, until finally, Ye Momo closed her eyes and let out a long sigh. With a sigh of relief, she said: "No one can say for sure about the ghosts." When she said this, she seemed to remember something old, stood up, and leaned over to pick up the broken pieces of porcelain scattered on the ground carefully one by one. rise.While picking it up, he said: "Second Miss seems to be born with some Su Hui, and it seems that Mrs. Xian has a spirit in the sky and secretly protects her."

After hearing what Ye Momo said, Ning Wanzhu heaved a sigh of relief in her heart, Ye Momo was finally willing to believe in herself.

Unexpectedly, Nanny Ye straightened up with her waist supported, but turned around again, and said to Ning Wanzhu very seriously: "There are three most important things right now. Who is behind the instigation, we must find out as soon as possible; second, what is the truth about your life experience, second lady, if the old man can't see the real evidence, he can't act to rectify your name; the last is your safety in the Zhuangzi in the future..."

Ning Wanzhu couldn't help being startled when she heard Ye Nanny's sudden seriousness, but what Ye Nanny said was very clear and clear.Ning Wanzhu nodded secretly in her heart.Ye Momo pondered for a moment, then said: "Well, I'll go to Aunt Shao's place now. You and your personal servant girl, simply move to live in my current yard. Mo Mei has good ears and eyesight, and outsiders come over, She would have known earlier, and secondly, we live together and have a caretaker."

Ning Wanzhu knew that there was no better way, so she nodded immediately.She called Shang Yanhui, and the two of them were almost penniless and had nothing to clean up, so they followed Mo Mei and moved to Ye Momo's yard.Mo Mei placed Ning Wanzhu in the green gauze cabinet in Madam Ye's bedroom.Yan Hui rests outside with Mo Mei.

Ning Wanzhu called Yan to come back and said, "Yan Hui, I will change your name, would you like it?"

Yan Hui has experienced a lot of things in the past two days, and it seems that he has matured a lot overnight. He nodded to Ning Wanzhu and said: "Yan Hui belongs to the second lady, so it is naturally named by the second lady."

Ning Wanzhu thought for a while and said, "In the future, you will be called Mo Lan after Sister Mo Mei!" She had already made up her mind and planned to accept Ye Momei's kindness and let Mo Mei be by her side in the future.

Revenge can be considered in the long term, but you must protect yourself first, and don't let people who don't understand you treat yourself as an enemy and kill you.
