Don't blame Lu Pengfei for talking nonsense. It's easy to understand that Ning Yang and his servant were injured, but Ning Guangyan's injury is really puzzling.
In this small courtyard, the only one who dared to attack Ning Guangyan was Mrs. Qian.
Facing the probing gazes of everyone, Ning Guangyan's face was as dark as ink, but he couldn't afford to offend these young men.
Ning Guangyan smiled coquettishly and said: "No problem, you are here to look for Brother Yu, right? Brother Yu is here, you go in, I have something else to do, so I'll go first."
After saying that, Ning Guangyan hurriedly walked towards the carriage.
Lu Pengfei looked at Ning Guangyan who was running away and asked in a loud voice: "Ning Yuanwailang, don't leave. The injury on your body was not caused by Mrs. Qian? Who hurt you?"
You tell us, if you say so, my brothers will help you find a place."
Ning Guangyan ignored Lu Pengfei, walked to the carriage in three steps, quickly boarded the carriage, stuck his head out and shouted to Ning Yang who was falling behind: "Brother Yang, hurry up."
Seeing that Ning Guangyan was ignoring him, Lu Pengfei turned to look at Ning Yang, "Hey, Uncle Ning, who did this to you?
You tell me, because you are Yingzhe's brother, the brothers will vent their anger on you."
How could Ning Yang dare to answer Lu Pengfei's words? With the support of Shao Qing and Zhu Ji, he limped onto his carriage.
Yang Haozhuo poked Shi Jingyang with his folding fan, leaned towards him, and whispered: "Qing'an, look at these defeated soldiers, how fierce the battle just now was? It's a pity, we are late, we missed a good thing
play."
Yang Haozhuo's words were full of teasing and regret.
Shi Jingyang stood with his hands behind his hands and looked at Ning Guangyan and his party coldly, wondering what he was thinking.
Lu Pengfei looked at the carriage going away, turned to look at Zhao Tian at the concierge, and asked, "What's wrong with them?"
Firstly, Zhao Tian is not a talkative person, and secondly, he knows what to say and what not to say.
Ning Guangyan is no longer a thing, he is also the biological father of Mr. Ning, and the cousin of his wife.
How can he talk nonsense when he is a nurse?
Zhao Tian smiled and shook his head and said: "Back to Mr. Lu, I don't know.
Are you guys here to see Second Master Ning? Please come in, the younger one has already sent someone to report."
Shi Jingyang looked at the carriage that had gone away, looked back, turned to Yang Haoran and said, "Let's go in first."
Several people walked into the mansion, all silent and no longer talking about Ning Guangyan and his party, as if the scene they just saw at the door had never happened.
Over at Wutong Garden, after Ning Guangyan left, Mrs. Qian let out a long sigh and said sadly, "What a sin!"
Liu Qiao'an was worried that Mrs. Qian would be angry, so she gently advised her: "Auntie, calm down, her anger will cause serious harm to her body. Sister Wei, come and help my aunt into the house to rest."
Chang Le picked up Mrs. Qian's crutch and handed it to Ning Yu.
Ning Wei walked over and supported Mrs. Qian, "Grandma, let's go into the house first."
Mrs. Qian sighed, she felt guilty for raising such a son when facing Ning Yu and Ning Wei!
Mrs. Qian patted Ning Wei's hand, turned around and entered the room without saying a word.
Yue Niang took a step forward and bent down to straighten the soft couch. When Ning Wei helped Mrs. Qian come over, she stretched out her hand to help and said, "Madam, please slow down."
Dong Hui and Qiu Ju took the opportunity to serve tea to everyone, and then left.
The room was silent for a moment. Liu Qiaoan looked around and broke the silence first, "Auntie, don't be angry. You have to take good care of yourself in order to protect Brother Yu and Sister Wei."
Mrs. Qian let out a long sigh again, "Oh, what a sin. It's such a shame to have such a generous person in our family."
Ning Yang said: "Grandma, my grandson doesn't care whether it's embarrassing or not. My grandson is worried about Ah Wei..."
Ning Yang didn't say the next words.
Mrs. Qian understood what Ning Yang meant and what he was worried about. She turned to look at Ning Wei and said, "Sister Wei, don't be afraid. As long as grandma is here, I will never let him do whatever he wants."
Ning Wei naturally believed in Mrs. Qian and nodded obediently, "Thank you, grandma!
Wei'er understands that grandma is the god of brother and Wei'er. As long as grandma is here, brother and Wei'er will be safe. So, please take care of yourself, grandma."
Mrs. Qian wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "Sister Wei, don't worry, grandma will be fine."
Liu Qiao'an said: "My aunt warned my cousin today, so he shouldn't dare to mess around.
Brother Yu, after what happened, you should know in your heart that only if you stand up can you protect Sister Wei. Just for Sister Wei, you must study hard."
Ning Yu nodded, leaned towards Liu Qiaoan and said, "Thank you, cousin, Yu'er understands."
Mrs. Qian was about to say something when Chang Le came in and said, "Master, Master Shi, Fourth Master Jiang, Fourth Master Yang, and Second Master Lu are here to see you."
After hearing this, Mrs. Liu turned to look at Mrs. Qian in surprise: "No matter which one of these young masters has a prominent family background, are they friends with our Brother Yu?"
Mrs. Qian nodded, "Brother Yu became a disciple of Grand Scholar Yang and studied with these guys since they were young."
Mrs. Liu was very happy for Ning Yu. With these good friends, why should Brother Yu have any worries about his future?
Mrs. Liu urged: "Several young gentlemen are here to visit. Brother Yu quickly goes to greet the guests."
Ning Yu stood up, said goodbye to Mrs. Qian and Mrs. Liu, and said, "Then Yu'er goes to work first."
Mrs. Qian waved her hand and said: "Go, go."
Ning Yu looked at Ning Wei and said warmly: "Sister Wei, don't take that person's words to heart. There is an elder brother in everything."
Ning Wei felt warm in her heart and said to Ning Yu Fushen, "Thank you, brother, Wei'er understands."
After Ning Yu left, Mrs. Liu said to Grandma Wu: "Have someone send some tea and fruit orders to Brother Yu's yard."
Aunt Wu bent her knees and bowed, took two steps back, turned around and went out to make arrangements.
Mrs. Qian was worried that Ning Wei would feel uncomfortable after hearing Ning Guangyan's words, so she held Ning Wei's hand and comforted her softly: "Sister Wei, don't take those bastard words of your father to heart.
He is just obsessed and confused. Don't worry, as long as grandma is here, she will not let you be wronged."
Ning Wei smiled at Mrs. Qian and nodded, "Grandma, don't worry, I don't care. Grandma, don't be angry. It's not worth getting so angry."
In Ning Wei's heart, the people she cares about in this world are her grandmother and her brother. As long as her grandmother and brother are around, she will have nothing to fear.
Liu Qiaoan looked at the sensible and well-behaved Ning Wei, and cursed Ning Guangyan again in her heart.
"Both our Sister Wei and Brother Yu are good. Auntie, take care of yourself and you will surely enjoy the blessings of Brother Yu and Brother Wei in the future."
Mrs. Qian smiled and said, "Thank you Qiao'an for your comfort. I don't have to. Even for Brother Yu and Sister Wei, I have to live a few more years."
Mrs. Liu wanted to say something else, but a servant came in and said: "Madam, the uncle is back."
Liu Qiaoan's face immediately showed a look of joy, "Brother Jie is back?"
The servant leaned forward and said, "Yes, the uncle came back and asked about his wife as soon as he got off his horse."
Liu Qiao'an stood up, smiled and said to Mrs. Qian: "Aunt, I'll go back first, and then I'll bring Brother Jie to pay my respects to my aunt."
Mrs. Qian smiled and nodded: "Okay, go quickly."
After Mrs. Liu's eldest son Xu Guanjie joined the army, he was stationed in the Gyeonggi camp and rarely came back several times a year.
Mrs. Liu happily returned to the main courtyard.
When Xu Guanjie returned to the mansion, he learned that Mrs. Qian's ancestors and grandsons were living in the mansion. He came straight here without changing his clothes.
As soon as Mrs. Liu went out, she saw her son coming towards her. She asked with a smile, "Why is Brother Jie back today? Why didn't you tell grandma in advance?"
Xu Guanjie bowed to Mrs. Liu first, straightened up and said: "My son has returned to the city to do some things. Because he received a temporary order, he will not have time to deliver a letter home in the future."
Mrs. Liu helped her son straighten his clothes and asked, "It's good to come back. How many days can you stay here?"
Xu Guanjie replied: "I can rest for two nights and return to the team the day after tomorrow. I heard that my aunt and the others are staying at the house? My son went to pay his respects to my aunt."
Mrs. Liu smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll accompany you in. I'll have someone deliver a letter to Dad and ask him to come back early today, and ask the kitchen to cook more food. Let's have a good gathering in the evening."
Mrs. Liu led Xu Guanjie to Mrs. Qian's upper room and said.
Xu Guanjie nodded and said, "Okay, when will Guanying and the others return to Beijing?"
Mrs. Liu has two sons and one daughter, the eldest son Xu Guanjie, the second son Xu Guanying, and their daughter Xu Guanyu.
After Xu Guanying and Xu Guanyu returned to Taiyuan with Mrs. Liu to worship their ancestors, they were left behind by the people in the old house and did not return to Beijing with Mrs. Liu.
"Brother Ying and Sister Yu will accompany your grandfather to celebrate his birthday before returning to Beijing."
The birthday of the old man of the Xu family is the tenth day of August.
While talking, mother and son came to Mrs. Qian's door.
Mrs. Liu walked into the house first. Mrs. Qian raised her head and said, "Qiao'an, why are you back..."
Before Mrs. Qian finished her words, she saw Xu Guanjie following behind, and stood up happily and asked, "Is this Brother Jie?"
Xu Guanjie took two steps forward, bowed to Mrs. Qian and said, "Hello, aunt, I am my junior Xu Guanjie."
Mrs. Qian stepped forward to support Xu Guanjie and looked him up and down, praising him repeatedly: "Well done, I haven't seen him for a few years, he has grown so tall, he is majestic and talented, and he has raised a good son by chance."
Mrs. Liu smiled and said: "Aunt, don't praise him, he will be proud of himself soon."
Xu Guanjie turned to look at Mrs. Liu, smiled and took over, "Mother is talking about herself, right?
Auntie, please stop praising her. Look at my mother’s eyes narrowing when she smiles. If you praise her again, there won’t even be any slits.”
Mrs. Liu raised her hand and patted Xu Guanjie, "I have worked so hard to raise you, and you still dare to make fun of me. Come on, let me introduce you. This is my cousin Wei, Sister Wei, and this is your cousin Jie Geer."
Xu Guanjie turned around and bowed to Ning Wei, "Hello, cousin!"
Ning Weifu returned the courtesy and said hello. After some polite remarks, everyone sat down.
Xu Guanjie looked around and asked, "Where is my cousin?"
Mrs. Liu explained: "Brother Yu is in the outer courtyard, and several of his friends are visiting. He will accompany the guests in the outer courtyard."
After Mrs. Liu finished speaking, she heard voices coming from outside. Chang Le came in and said, "Old Madam, some gentlemen are here to say hello to you."
Ning Wei stood up and said to Mrs. Qian: "Grandma, Wei'er should get out of the way first."
Mrs. Qian nodded, and Ning Wei walked around behind the screen.
Mrs. Qian waited for Ning Wei to avoid her, then said, "Please, please."
Ning Yu walked into the house on crutches and saw Xu Guanjie standing next to Mrs. Liu. He was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a smile: "Is this my cousin?"
Xu Guanjie bowed towards Ning Yu, "Hello, cousin, this is Xu Guanjie."
Ning Yu quickly bowed and returned the gift.
Shi Jingyang, Jiang Xingchang, Yang Haozhuo, and Lu Pengfei entered the room one after another.
When Shi Jingyang saw Xu Guanjie, he was stunned, why is he here?
Shi Jingyang didn't allow Shi Jingyang to think too much, Ning Yu had already said to Mrs. Qian: "Qing'an and the others said they would come to pay their respects to my grandmother."
Shi Jingyang returned to his position, and with Jiang Si and others, he came forward and bowed his hands to Mrs. Qian.
Mrs. Qian smiled and thanked her, "You gentlemen are so kind! It's a blessing for our brother Yu to make friends with you, and it's a blessing for our family."
After a while of greetings, Ning Yu introduced Mrs. Liu and Xu Guanjie to everyone.
After another round of politeness, everyone took their seats and exchanged greetings with each other for a while.
Ning Yu looked at Mrs. Qian, "Grandma, my grandson has taken the prince and the others to the outer courtyard."
Mrs. Qian smiled and agreed, "Go ahead and entertain all the gentlemen."
Ning Yu turned to look at Xu Guanjie and invited: "Cousin, how about coming together?"
Xu Guanjie agreed readily, "Okay, everyone, go ahead. I just came back from the camp and I'm so dusty. Let me go back and change my clothes. I'll come back later."
Mrs. Liu took the opportunity and said to Mrs. Qian: "Aunt, I'm going to make some arrangements and come over to talk to you later."
Mrs. Qian nodded, "Okay, you go and do your work."
Shi Jingyang was the last one to come out of the house, saw Hu Rui standing under the verandah, and asked softly: "Is she there?"
Hu Rui nodded slightly.
Shi Jingyang wanted to ask something else, but Lu Pengfei turned around and spoke to him: "Qing'an, Mr. Xu was a Jinshi in the martial arts exam two years ago?"
He seemed to have an impression, but he wasn't sure.
Shi Jingyang nodded and said: "Yes, in the martial arts competition two years ago, I got second place in the first class and second place!"
Lu Pengfei gave a thumbs up and praised: "Amazing! Did you know each other before?"
Shi Jingyang shook his head, "I know him, but I have never met him in private."
If Shi Jingyang remembers correctly, Xu Guanjie is now under the command of General Liu Yuan in the Gyeonggi Camp, and General Liu Yuan is a tiger general in the Shi family's army.
Shi Jingyang didn't expect that Xu Guanjie was Ning Wei's cousin.
In his previous life, when he was fighting at the border, Xu Guanjie was brave, good at fighting, brave and resourceful.
In a battle, he led a team of a thousand people to disperse tens of thousands of barbarians and then annihilated them one by one. It was rare to win a victory with a small number...
Lu Pengfei came over and asked, "This man's gestures look very free and easy. Are everyone who has stayed in the military camp like this?"
Shi Jingyang was pulled back from his thoughts and said speciously: "Maybe."
Several people returned to the outer courtyard, and after a few words of greeting, Yang Haozhuo turned to look at Jiang Xingchang and asked in a low voice: "Is Qiu Wei's examiner this time your father?"
Jiang Xingchang looked at Yang Haozhuo with a half-smile but did not answer immediately.
As soon as the question came out of his mouth, Yang Haozhuo regretted it. It was against the rules to inquire about the examiner privately.
He quickly waved his hand and said: "Si Xing, don't think too much, I just asked casually, I'm sorry. I take back what I just said and pretend I didn't ask. Okay?"
