General Yunhui's mansion is closer to the palace than the Bai family. When Ni Dairou arrived, Ni Xianya and her two children were already guarding the door.
Ni Xianya is the second daughter of the left minister of the Ministry of Industry and the wife of Ni Zhiyong. They have a son and a daughter.
The eldest son is called Ni Cheng, who is twelve years old, and the second daughter is called Ni Yu, who is eight years old.
They are all extremely well-educated people.
"Sister." Ni Xianya bowed softly when she saw Ni Dairou getting off the carriage.
Ni Xianya is a noble lady who has been raised to the standard in her family, and her every move shows her self-cultivation.
Ni Dairou's expression was a little strange, and she slowly called her: "Sister-in-law."
I have never heard such a soft voice before. Are you feeling uncomfortable today?
Ni Dairou's expression was too obvious. Nian Xianya couldn't pretend not to notice it, and there was a bit of silence between the two of them for a while.
Ni Cheng and Ni Yu came forward to greet me, "Auntie."
Ni Dairou laughed and said, "Get up, Ni Yu is getting more and more beautiful."
Ni Yu was still young after all, so she blushed with embarrassment.
Ni Xianya immediately greeted, "Sister, come in quickly, my mother-in-law and father-in-law have been thinking about you since early in the morning."
Ni Dairou nodded and walked briskly inside.
It wasn't until the distance between the two of them was a little wider that the nanny behind Ni Dairou reminded her in a low voice: "Madam, our third young lady is the head of the county."
Ni Dairou suddenly asked, "Does she think Zhenzhen is coming today?"
Mammy was silent for a moment, then pointed directly: "You are the mother of the county chief."
My identity is different from before!
Because Ni Dairou married low, while Ni Xianya married high.
So when Ni Dairou came over in the past, even though Ni Xianya couldn't fault her etiquette, she wasn't very popular either.
Ni Dairou understood, and twitched the corner of his mouth in a funny way, but didn't say anything.
Xian Xianya didn't want to get any benefits from her, but she was a little enthusiastic when she saw the benefits. This is human nature and there is nothing to say.
In the lobby, General Ni and Mrs. Ni waited quietly for a short time before they saw Ni Dairou walking in very quickly, "Father, mother."
Ni Dairou paid tribute to the two superiors.
Mrs. Ni helped Ni Dairou up and looked at her carefully for a while. When she saw that there was no gloom in Ni Dairou's eyes, she smiled and said, "It seems that you are living a good life."
Ni Dairou smiled softly and helped Mrs. Ni sit down, "That's natural."
General Ni put down the tea cup at this time and asked: "A few days ago, I suddenly heard the news that Zhenzhen was almost forced to death by King Dingxi. Is this what happened?"
Ni Dairou reluctantly told the story, and then said: "Father, you don't have to worry, these are just words that were deliberately let out, not to mention that the emperor came to see Zhenzhen that day."
General Ni sighed slightly and said, "I don't know why, but I always feel a little sad when I hear the news. In my dreams, I always dream of setting up a mourning hall."
Mrs. Ni slapped General Ni hard in the face, "You are so stupid, you can say anything!"
General Ni blew his beard and glared at Mrs. Ni, but did not say a harsh word.
"Don't worry, dad. Ming Chong has checked Zhenzhen's pulse. Zhenzhen's health and bones are good. She only needs to be nursed for a month."
Ming Chong is the name of Bai Yutang.
General Ni nodded, not saying how real his dream was, as if he had really experienced it.
The body that was gradually cooling down was placed in the coffin.
I just don’t know why, but it’s extremely difficult to hold it up, as if it was snatched from somewhere.
"If Zhenzhen knew that you cared about her like this, you wouldn't have asked me to plead guilty for her." Ni Dairou smiled and took the book handed over from her mother behind her, "She asked me to give this to you. She said that although you are in good health, It’s tough, but it needs to be well maintained.”
Mrs. Ni was slightly surprised, "Zhenzhen has never been here."
After Bai Guo came back from Fengzhou, he was kept in the Bai family's own courtyard until he entered the palace and began to be selected and taught etiquette.
During this period, in order to avoid causing trouble, Bai Guo did not dare to go anywhere.
General Ni also looked at Ni Dairou, obviously not thinking that this was written by Ging Guo.
Ni Dairou was a little helpless, "No matter what, it's a family relationship that is thicker than water. I just haven't seen it, so why don't I miss it."
After all, it’s not that Ginkgo doesn’t want to see her, it’s that she can’t see her.
Mrs. Ni opened the thick book, and the handwriting on it was indeed not Ni Dairou's handwriting.
only……
General Ni glanced at it casually, then suddenly turned his head back to look at the writing on the booklet.
"This..." General Ni took the booklet from Mrs. Ni's hand, read it carefully for a long time, and suddenly closed it with a 'bang'.
"Dad?" Ni Dairou was startled. She had never seen General Ni so excited before.
"Has anyone seen this brochure?!" General Ni looked at the people behind Ni Dairou with an aura that came from fighting on the battlefield.
Ni Dairou was stunned for a moment, then said: "No one has seen it. Zhenzhen was carefully kept by me, and I haven't seen it either."
Seeing that General Ni's aura had not weakened, Ni Dairou waved to the people behind him, "Everyone, get out."
Soon, only three people were left in the empty hall.
Mrs. Ni spoke slowly, "Who did Zhenzhen learn her calligraphy from?"
Generally, rich people will look for the handwriting of their predecessors or other people to copy in order to be able to use their own calligraphy.
Ni Dairou was a little confused and said honestly: "I don't know, Zhenzhen's teachings were all arranged by the old lady... What's wrong with this handwriting?"
General Ni was silent for a moment and then said: "It looks like the emperor's handwriting."
Everywhere is like, those little habits that the emperor wrote about are all here.
Ni Dairou pursed her lips and said, "I visited Zhenzhen several times while she was writing. She wrote it herself."
Madam Ni didn't quite understand, "Why did your old madam ask Zhenzhen to learn the emperor's handwriting? Besides, where did she find it?"
Ni Dairou shook his head, "There is no way the old lady will let Zhenzhen learn the emperor's handwriting."
They want to guide Zhenzhen to be like a loving mother, the Empress Dowager, not like the emperor.
"But speaking of it." Ni Dairou looked a little unhappy, "The emperor came quietly that day, and neither Ming Chong nor I knew about it. He stayed in Zhenzhen's boudoir for a cup of tea before leaving, which happened to be wrong. Time we passed.”
"The same thing happened when Zhenzhen entered the palace before. The emperor kept her for lunch before letting her come back." Ni Dairou only dared to say it because there were no outsiders in the hall.
General Ni couldn't help but be a little surprised. He was in charge of the security of the palace, but he knew that Bai Guo had been staying with the Queen Mother, but he didn't know that the emperor would visit Bai Guo like this.
This can also be seen that Ni Dairou really manages the Bai family very well.
Not a single rumor came from the Bai family.
"Just pretend you don't know about this matter." After a long time, General Ni came to a conclusion, "The emperor treats Zhenzhen differently, but since he never lets Zhenzhen enter the harem, he knows that he doesn't seem to have feelings for men and women."
Ni Dairou softened his expression.
No matter what, my daughter is only thirteen, and the emperor is a person who has lived half his life.
But if the emperor really lets Bai Guo enter the palace, there is nothing she can do.
"Keep this book carefully." Old General Ni touched it cherishedly, "Zhenzhen can't possibly not be aware of the problem with her handwriting. She really cares about me when she can write to us."
Mrs. Ni grabbed it and said, "This is a birthday gift for her grandmother!"
General Ni was very sorry.
Ni Dairou smiled and said: "Zhenzhen said that the next half of the volume is full of prescriptions for treating hidden wounds left on the battlefield."
General Ni's eyes lit up.
The next day, Mrs. Ni's birthday, there were many people coming.
The emperor sent Su Qing to bring congratulatory gifts, and everyone was shocked.
Later, congratulatory gifts from the Queen Mother, Queen, and Fourth Concubine were also delivered one after another, making everyone present feel the Ni family's royal favor.
The birthday party suddenly became more lively.
On the third day, Ni Dairou returned to Bai's house.
Ni Dairou, who came back in a hurry, stuffed Ging Guo with a pair of the best warm jade bracelets made of thick materials, pure sunshine and plain shapes.
Judging from the color of the ginkgo, you can tell that it is a gift prepared for you to enter the palace to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday.
Ging Guo felt warm in her heart.
There was still half a month before the Queen Mother's birthday, so Ging Guo stayed in the room to teach Farewell Xia and Yu Die how to read and write, and asked An Jie to report on Pang Yang's recovery progress.
The progress of Yu Die's literacy is very gratifying. As long as he teaches on the first day, he will never forget it.
Bai Guo felt that he had a low opinion of her.
If this wasn't genius, what would that day be like? !
On June 17th, Ging Guo got up early in the morning. Yu Die helped her get dressed and wash up, while Bie Xia gave Ging Guo a complicated and gorgeous hairstyle.
The doctor girl outside brought Gingguo a stack of snacks and a bowl of soup early.
She was almost stammering after half a month of recuperation, and the emperor knew the specific condition of her body. If she didn't come forward this time, it would be easy for the emperor to feel that he was dissatisfied with his 'protection' of King Dingxi.
"I won't drink it today." This medicine will make you sleepy easily, and the Queen Mother will easily lose her spirits when she sees it.
The doctor woman said: "The old lady asked me to bring it here."
Ging Guo glanced at the bowl of soup again.
The Empress Dowager's fifty-first birthday banquet was not a big one, and only Madam Gaoming and all the royal ladies were present.
And none of the female members of the Bai family had royalties, so she was the only one who could enter the palace. The old lady was sent away now because she was worried about her health.
"Miss Third, I'll put your handkerchief in mint water. If you feel sleepy, it will refresh you and you won't be afraid anymore." Yu Die handed a handkerchief with exquisite embroidery to Gingguo.
Put the ginkgo to your nose and smell it lightly. The coolness in your nose makes ginkgo shiver all over.
This mint is really rich in ingredients.
Taking the decoction from the doctor's tray, Ging Guo tested the temperature before slowly taking a few sips.
The bitter decoction instantly invaded the limbs and bones, and was even more refreshing than the mint just now.
Ging Guo couldn't help but frown.
This injury was simply a long-term 'torture', and I couldn't let something like this happen to me again in the future.
A carriage with county owner's specifications has been prepared outside. Pang Yang, dressed as a guard, stood in front of a convoy of more than a dozen people.
Today's occasion is formal, and everyone is very particular about their clothes and their respective positions, so Pang Yang cannot sit next to the coachman as he did in the past.
Bai Guo first went to greet the old lady and Ni Dairou, and then walked out with Bie Xia and Yu Die.
There is no need to rush too early, otherwise people will think that you are clinging to power, which will cause ridicule in the family.
After being helped out of the door by Bie Xia, the first thing Bai Guo saw was Pang Yang, who was different from the past.
Not only did his silly smile no longer appear on his face, but his clothes no longer looked like casual bunting, and even his aura stood out among the others, but he always had a cold face.
People who don't know look at it and think that this person is so arrogant and cold.
"Brother Pang Yang." Bai Guo nodded slightly towards Pang Yang as usual.
Pang Yang's nose was slightly sour.
He thought that the third lady would not care about him after Wangyuan Mountain came back.
Just waiting for time to throw him to Fengzhou and never see him again.
But...it's the Queen Mother's birthday now, and it's only a few days before he leaves.
