Aunt Yang stepped back, and Mrs. Zhao leaned back in her chair, thinking over and over what happened today. It was obviously a foolproof plan, but she couldn't figure out where she went wrong?
Ning Wei leaned on the soft couch, staring at the courtyard outside the window, with thousands of thoughts in her mind, thinking about how to take every next step.
What happened today can be regarded as dodging a disaster.
But what about tomorrow? If Zhao didn’t succeed today, he would definitely not give up!
How should she deal with Mrs. Zhao? Her head started to hurt again, and Ning Wei raised her hand to rub her head.
When her eyes were slightly closed, Ning Wei suddenly felt relieved. The most important thing in life is life and death.
She has died once, so what is there to be afraid of? It's just that soldiers will stop her, and water will flood her.
"Miss, Grandma Yang from Jing'an Hall is here." Zaohua came in and reported.
Why is she here? Ning Wei was stunned, sat up straight, and said: "Please come in!"
Zaohua exited, and after a while, Nanny Yang walked in the door with a smile on her face, bowed her knees to Ning Wei and said, "Hello, Miss, I'm here to get the food box."
Ning Wei nodded slightly, looked at Zaohua and said, "Go get the food box and give it to grandma."
Zaohua bent her knees in response, turned around and went to the next room to get the food box.
Aunt Yang secretly glanced at Ning Wei and saw that Ning Wei was sizing her up. She quickly lowered her head and asked: "The food the old slave asked them to pack was a little short. Is the eldest lady not full? Do you want the old slave to ask the kitchen to add more food?"
Can you make some midnight snacks for the lady?"
Ning Wei looked at Nanny Yang, who was looking away and looking panicked. Was she testing her?
Ning Wei shook her head gently and said, "No, grandma sent me a lot of food. I'm very full.
From now on, for small things like getting food boxes, you don’t have to bother grandma to go there in person, she can just send someone to pick them up, or I can ask Zaohua and the others to deliver them to grandma."
Aunt Yang clasped her hands in front of her, bent her knees toward Ning Wei, and explained: "What, that food box is from Madam's yard, and Madam is delivering food to Jing'an Hall today.
It happened that the old lady asked someone to bring some food to the eldest lady. The old slave couldn't find the food box for a while, so he used the food box in the madam's courtyard. The old slave was going to Lingyun Garden at this time, so he just happened to bring the food box over.
"
Zaohua handed the food box to Grandma Yang. "Thank you very much, Grandma. I'd like to ask you to go over. The dishes have been washed by the slave girl."
Grandma Yang took the food box, opened the lid and took a look. She saw the dishes neatly stacked in the box. Her heart sank, and she pretended to be calm and said, "Okay! The old slave is leaving."
Ning Wei didn't try to persuade her to stay, and said, "Zaohua, send Nanny Yang off for me."
Nanny Yang bent her knees to say goodbye, took two steps back, turned around and walked out. As soon as she left the door, she met Ning Yu head-on.
Aunt Yang bent her knees and said, "Hello, Second Master! It's late at night, why did Second Master come to the eldest lady?"
Zaohua explained from the side: "Our lady asked the second master to come over to discuss going to the temple to perform rituals for the wife. Sang Ye went in and reported to the lady that the second master has arrived. Mammy, I will send you out."
Aunt Yang originally wanted to stay and question her for a few questions, but Zaohua grabbed her arm and took her out half-pushed and half-tugged.
Zaohua looked at the food box in Nanny Yang's hand and said: "Mommy, why do you have to go all the way to get the food box? You always send someone over to say, I will always send it to you.
That’ll be fine.”
As she walked out, Grandma Yang looked back into the room and agreed perfunctorily: "Yeah."
"It's late at night, isn't it appropriate for the second master to come to the backyard?" Nanny Yang withdrew her gaze and looked at Zaohua.
