MTL - Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year-Chapter 610 The couple sang together
Shen Ningning got off the carriage and looked up at the lintel of Ren Mansion, which was very close at hand.
It is worthy of being the residence of a prefect. The red paint on the door is brand new, the rivets have been gilded with gold, the tiles on the roof shine as if they have been washed, and the two stone lions at the door are powerful and fierce.
The wet nurse led the way: "Miss, please follow the old slave to enter."
Shen Ningning lowered her head and saw red shredded paper all over the ground. They were the embers left by the firecrackers that had just been set off in this house, and the servants were cleaning them.
Mo Ling looked like he was in danger and asked casually: "I heard that it is the local custom in Lingshan City to fire a thousand cannons when welcoming a daughter back home. Is this already done in advance? How do they know when we will arrive?"
Hearing this, the wet nurse was a little embarrassed and hurriedly explained: "Master and others don't know that the eldest lady is here today. This cannon was fired to welcome the second lady back."
Shen Ningning pretended to be surprised: "Oh? It turns out that the second sister is also coming back today?"
The wet nurse hummed, and a figure from far away rushed to greet her: "Yue'er, you are finally back!"
The surrounding servants immediately greeted the master and his wife.
Shen Ningning raised her eyes and saw that Prefect Ren had a big belly. Mrs. Ren beside him had her eyes raised. In addition to looking at her, there was also a hint of meanness in her eyes.
"Father..." Shen Ningning held back her nausea and called with tears in her eyes. She looked like she was about to cry, which made her originally delicate face even more beautiful like a hibiscus.
Not only the surrounding servants were dumbfounded, but even the prefect was a little surprised.
This is his eldest daughter?
"Yue'er, why are you back alone? Where are the servants I sent to pick you up? Are these lazy people neglecting you?" There was a hint of suspicion in Mrs. Ren's eyes, and she stepped forward with concern. He asked, holding Shen Ningning's hand.
As soon as she said this, Shen Ningning burst into tears.
"Father, my husband and I almost died when we came back to see you!" She concealed the fact that she was assassinated by a servant on the road, and changed her story to: "The carriage on the road suddenly changed direction for some reason and almost fell off the cliff. My husband and I narrowly escaped death. , luckily I fell into the pool, and after finally climbing up, I couldn’t find the servants.”
Prefect Ren and Mrs. Ren looked at each other.
"So it's like this. You suffered along the way." Prefect Ren was filled with emotion. Then, he looked at Mo Lingwei with a sharp look: "Although you have protected Yue'er, it doesn't mean that I will approve what you did. My son-in-law, if I hadn’t been busy with official duties at the time, I wouldn’t have agreed to anything when you got married!”
Mrs. Ren smoothed things over: "Well, sir, Yue'er and my uncle finally escaped death and went home to reunite. You should be happy. Don't say such things, Yue'er must be so sad."
Ren Taishou nodded along with her words: "For Yue'er's sake, you can stay in the house for the time being."
Mo Lingwei's sword-shaped eyebrows were like black feathers, and his thin eyes were as heavy as frost blades. He didn't speak, and only raised his eyebrows slightly.
For some reason, even a seasoned official like Ren Taishou felt a strong sense of pressure.
How could an ordinary teacher be so calm and fierce?
Prefect Ren said: "I still have something to do in the yamen. I have to go back and deal with it. Yue'er, if you have any questions, please contact your mother. I will come back in the evening and we will have a reunion dinner together and wash away the dust for you."
Shen Ningning knew that what he said was an excuse. He would go out now to find out where the servants who had been sent out had gone.
Mo Lingwei had already had her hands and feet cleaned along the way. She nodded weakly, and Prefect Ren left in a hurry.
As soon as he left, Mrs. Ren changed into a smiling face.
“Yue’er, Yue’er, they all say that women undergo eighteen major changes, it turns out it’s true. Look at you, you look so good that I can’t even recognize you.”
Shen Ningning blinked her long eyelashes and asked, "Have Mrs. Ren and I met before?"
She didn't call her mother, which was not surprising to Mrs. Ren, because if Ren Liuyue had a crush on her, it would be a ghost!
When Ren Liuyue's maternal grandfather was still alive, she kept saying outside that she was a foxy concubine, ruining her first wife's family.
So Ren Liuyue has been influenced by her since she was a child, how could she not hate her?
Hearing Shen Ningning's attitude, Mrs. Ren gave a false smile: "I haven't seen her before, but I heard the maid in the mansion describe your mother. She is beautiful and quiet, but not as good as you."
Shen Ningning nodded slowly: "Maybe I will follow my grandfather's side?" These words were so rude that Mrs. Ren could hardly hold back her smile.
She turned to ask about Mo Lingwei.
"Is everything okay at home? I heard that your mother was seriously ill a few years ago and had no money for medical treatment. At that time, Yue'er wrote a letter to ask for help, but the ignorant concierge withdrew it. She thought it was someone outside who wanted her. As for the blackmail, I found out later that it was true. I couldn't help you. It has always been the master's worry. I also regret it. The concierge was also fined. I just don't know. Has your mother been cured? "
Mo Lingwei said in a cold tone: "He passed away."
Mrs. Ren asked knowingly.
In order to treat Fang Huan's mother, Ren Liuyue didn't have much money, so she wrote to her father for help for the first time in more than ten years.
Unexpectedly, I didn’t wait for a response.
Later, Ren Liuyue sold off the property left by her grandfather to get enough money, but Fang Huan's mother was still too ill and could not save her life.
At this moment, when Mrs. Ren mentioned it, she didn't take Fang Huan's background seriously at all, and she even wanted to give Ren Liuyue a blow.
However, Shen Ning would rather not let Liu Yue, let alone let others bully her.
Mo Lingwei is even more so.
He said in a normal tone: "Everyone is destined to die. Madam Ren seems to be quite old. She still needs to take good care of her. Don't let the illness come too suddenly and without any preparation."
Mrs. Ren’s face twisted when she heard this.
Is this poor teacher cursing her? !
Her expression changed, and she was about to get angry, but Shen Ningning rushed to her side and stared at her face carefully.
"Oh, my husband seems to be right. Madam Ren, you have a lot of wrinkles on your face, but that's not the most important thing. I see why your face is darkened. Have you seen the doctor recently?"
Mo Lingwei: "The Yintang is dark? Then you have to be more careful. My mother was... well, let's not mention it."
They exchanged words with each other, and Mrs. Ren's face turned pale as she spoke.
"You... don't say so scary. The doctor comes here every now and then to ask for Ping An's pulse. Besides, the fortune tellers say that I have great blessings and a long life, and that nothing like what you said will happen... Okay, this is the courtyard where you live. , if you need anything, ask the maid to come to me." Mrs. Ren said, turned around and left in a hurry.
Shen Ningning guessed that she must be afraid, and a snicker flashed deep in her watery eyes.
Mo Lingwei held her hand and looked at the small yard in front of him: "I'm going to make you suffer. Living in a place like this is as small as a mouse house."
Shen Ningning blinked: "Is this place still small?"
But then I thought about it, compared to his Zichen Palace, it was really nothing.
The two of them entered the house together.
The two sisters Ren Er and Ren San who were hiding behind a tree at the entrance of the yard were shocked.
"That...that person is Ren Liuyue? Is the one next to her husband-in-law?"
Ren Sancuo was astonished: "Why is she so beautiful? I always thought Fang Huan looked like a poor scholar with a sallow complexion, but I didn't expect that she is so handsome and powerful..."
Ren Er was the most surprised.
Her husband-in-law is as short and fat as a pig, but Ren Liuyue's husband is so plump and handsome? !
