Si Ning couldn't figure out what the Si family had planned for a moment, but she knew that the Si family had no good intentions.
And even if she drives people away today, with Si Wan's ability, she will definitely get into the house as she wishes.
Rather than mobilizing a large number of people, it is better to keep people here half-heartedly and put them under your nose, so that you can know what they are going to do.
Because she is Si Ning's sister, she can only be arranged in the third-bedroom courtyard.
Qiu Ju packed up a side room and came out, which was not far from the main room where Si Ning and Lu Hanxiao lived.
After everything was arranged, Si Ning returned to the house on the pretext of feeling tired.
Si Wan didn't say anything. He told her to be careful and went back to rest.
Standing in the room, Qiu Ju stood up for Si Ning.
"This Miss Si is so proud. She knows that you are in poor health, yet she still asks you to accompany her to choose this and that. This is not the Zhenguo Palace. Who is she showing off to?"
Si Ning remembered that when he first met Qiu Ju, he was very upset.
He kept silent and had a dark face, and did whatever he was asked to do.
I don’t know when it became different.
Si Ning was amused by her words and comforted her, "If she wants to put on a show, it depends on whether your wife and I are willing to do the whole thing. There's no rush on the first day."
Qiu Ju didn't understand what Zhao Shanshen meant, but she also knew how powerful Si Ning was and nodded.
"If she dares to harm you, I will be the first one not to spare her."
The Si family's intentions are known to everyone, and everyone can see that they have uneasy and good intentions, but no one can guess what their bad intentions are.
Si Ning put Si Wan's matter behind him and only thought about the opening of the hot pot restaurant.
Now that she was "inconvenienced", she was not as free to go out as before, so she asked Qiu Ju to prepare a post for her, inviting Mrs. Jing'an Hou to visit her.
After her miscarriage, Mrs. Jing'an Hou came once. At that time, Si Ning was still in the early stage of "miscarriage". When she was relatively weak, Lu Hanxiao was always by her side. The two of them didn't exchange a few words before Lu Hanxiao called Si Ning I was ordered to be kicked out due to feeling unwell.
Madam Jing'an Hou didn't mind, she just felt sorry for Sining to encounter such a thing at such a young age.
Later, Mrs. Jing'an Hou came twice more, and once met Jiang Linrou outside the door.
After Jiang Linrou exchanged pleasantries with her, she asked insinuatingly about her husband's transfer back to the capital. Madam Jing'an Hou did not confirm the answer and only said that she would go back and help her ask.
After Si Ning heard about this, he wrote to Mrs. Jing'an Hou and said that he would go see her when he recovered.
We can't let Jiang Linrou block people at the door every time and question Mrs. Jing'an Hou.
Mrs. Jing'an Hou hadn't been here for a long time. When she saw Si Ning, she looked her up and down for a long time before she decided to give up.
"Looks okay, but I've lost weight again."
"I eat and sleep all day long, how can I lose weight? It's because you are always worried about me that you think I have lost weight."
Madam Jing'an Hou was amused by her and lightly pinched her forehead.
The interaction between the two was very much like a mother and son. This was how Si Wan felt when he saw this scene when he came in.
"Sister, are there guests here?" She saluted Mrs. Marquis Jing'an very dignifiedly, "Si Wan has met Mrs. Luo."
Si Ning hadn't had time to discuss Si Wan's stay at home with Mrs. Jing'an Hou, but now he introduced her when he saw her.
"Madam, this is my natal sister, Si Wan."
Mrs. Jing'an Hou had heard of Si Wan's name, and she had once planned to come to marry her son. However, her son was not in the capital all year round, so the idea was abandoned.
She was still very familiar with Si Wan, so she nodded with a smile and praised him without hesitation.
"The Zhenguo Palace is really a treasure of Feng Shui. The girls born there are all so charming, Miss Si is like this, and Aning is even more so."
Si Wan smiled and helped Fu Li, "Mrs. Luo is so complimentary."
Mrs. Jing'an Hou asked her a few irrelevant questions, and Si Wan answered them one by one.
Si Ning observed this sister-in-law from the sidelines, and had to say that she was a wonderful person who had a measure of advance and retreat.
The two chatted for a while, and then Si Wan remembered the purpose of coming today.
"I asked the kitchen to make soup for you. I didn't expect Mrs. Luo to be here. I'll have a bowl delivered to you later."
"It's okay. I'll leave as soon as I can. Miss Si, don't bother me."
Si Wan said, "It's no trouble. Madam, please sit down for now. I'll be back soon."
She turned around and walked out. Madam Jing'an Hou lost her smile and looked more serious.
"What's going on? Why did your sister move in?"
Mrs. Jing'an Hou didn't know much about the affairs of Zhenguo Palace.
Firstly, Marquis Jing'an had no friendship with Duke Zhenguo, and secondly, after meeting Si Ning, Mrs. Marquis Jing'an had never met anyone from Duke Zhenguo's mansion, and neither of them mentioned this matter, but this man suddenly moved into the mansion. It is inevitable not to make people suspicious.
Si Ning did not hide it, and told Mrs. Jing'an Hou that Si Wan was trying every possible means to enter the palace.
"What she has in mind, I still can't guess."
"What else can I have in mind?" Mrs. Jing'an Hou said firmly, "I probably want to marry into the family."
In fact, Si Ning had thought of this at first, but how could the emperor let the two young ladies of the Si family marry in?
It didn't matter that Lu Hanxiao was unconscious before, but now that he's awake, the wedding is no longer a simple celebration.
Although the Duke of Zhen Guo does not hold great power, everyone knows that they have taken refuge with the fifth prince a long time ago and follow his lead in everything.
It was the fifth prince's handiwork that Si Ning married into the Ning'an Marquis Mansion.
Now that you want to marry Si Wan in again, what are your thoughts?
"It shouldn't be that simple."
"You silly child!" Mrs. Jing'an Hou said with hatred for iron.
"If everything has to be related to the previous dynasty, why can't your husband be liked by others?"
Si Ning was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses with a face that didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Madam, he is Lu Hanxiao, the youngest general of the Great Xia Kingdom. His marriage cannot be explained simply by liking him."
Mrs. Jing'an Hou knew that she had hit a dead end, so she wanted to enlighten her with a few words.
"Your sister-in-law has yet to decide on someone at such an old age, which shows that her heart is not as big as usual. But looking at the current situation, no one may be able to suppress the treasure, but Han Xiao is different. He is never partial. We need him here."
Mrs. Jing'an Hou said it tactfully, but Si Ning understood it.
Lu Hanxiao doesn't take sides, which shows that he can stand alone in this battle for the inheritance.
He has a lot of troops, and as long as he doesn't take sides, no matter who the position belongs to in the end, they will have to rely on Lu Hanxiao.
The Si family has put its treasure on the most stable result, and it has to be said that Duke Zhen Guo is good at planning.
While he was seeking refuge with the fifth prince, he also wanted to marry his daughter to Lu Hanxiao.
He was betting that if he had another daughter, he would probably give one to the third prince.
Ginger is really spicy!
"I guess I was wrong." Si Ning murmured.
