MTL - Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year-Chapter 614 Is it a natural disaster?

When Shen Ningning took the maid to the door of Mrs. Ren's yard, she saw the maids coming in and out with freshly cooked medicine.

 The maid next to Mrs. Ren saw Shen Ningning coming and turned pale with fright.

He didn't dare to hide, so he immediately came up to her and greeted her carefully: "Miss, why are you here?"

Shen Ningning secretly laughed in her heart, this maid's attitude has changed so much.

Yesterday, Shen Ningning clearly saw her standing behind Mrs. Ren, looking at him with extremely disdainful eyes.

No one in this mansion treats her as a eldest lady, but as a burden.

 I’m actually scared now.

"Of course I'm here to pay my respects to Mrs. Ren, and I want to see her by the way. She fainted from fright last night, and it's all my fault. Is Mrs. Ren okay now?"

The eldest maid was in trouble and couldn't tell her: "Miss, you are filial. I will definitely tell the lady on your behalf. But the lady can't see you now. She had nightmares when she came back last night. She was still frothing at the mouth in the morning. She was just sent away in shock. The Taoist priest also asked the doctor to check her pulse, and the doctor said that now my wife needs to rest, so you should go back first."

 Scared to the point of foaming at the mouth?

Shen Ningning sneered in her heart, thinking that Mrs. Ren was so capable, yet she was so scared.

"Really? That's really serious. It's just an unlucky time for me to come. Then I'll come back tomorrow."

After Shen Ningning finished speaking, the maid's expression changed. Will she come tomorrow? It is really easy to invite God, but difficult to send God away!

 She could only apologize and send Shen Ningning to the door of the courtyard.

At this moment, the sound of quarreling came from the house behind him. Shen Ningning stopped and looked back.

After a while, a girl with a round face, almond eyes and a goose-yellow dress lifted the curtain and walked out angrily.

She kept complaining to the maid all the way: "My mother is partial. The third sister and I both came to visit her. The third sister spilled the medicine because she was not sure, but the mother blamed me and scolded me." This meal is really unreasonable, if I had known I wouldn’t come!”

With a pale face, her little maid persuaded: "Miss Fourth, please stop saying a few words. If the lady hears it, she will be unhappy again."

Ren Si was angry: "She has been unhappy with me for more than a day or two. Sometimes I really wonder, am I her biological child? Why is she always so harsh on me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ren Si walked to the door and saw Shen Ningning standing there.

 Her eyes flashed with surprise.

　　Since when did such a fairy-like person appear in the mansion?

She has a snow-skinned face, long black hair tied into a fairy bun, and only two hairpins, but her delicate eyebrows cannot be concealed. Her slender figure is simply the most exuberant beauty in autumn.

Ren Si stared blankly for a while, then the maid called out: "Miss Fourth, this is the eldest lady."

Ren Si came back to his senses and was even more surprised: "So you are the one who summoned thunder to strike them?"

Shen Ningning said calmly: "You have a long lifespan, and thunder doesn't just hit people, unless it does something bad."

"You're right!" Unexpectedly, Ren Sizhong nodded, affirming her words, and turned around to speak to the room: "Now the eldest sister's life is precious, and she is suppressing her in the mansion. Judging from her usual thoughts, Do unscrupulous people dare to use tricks? If they have too bad intentions, they will be struck to death by lightning sooner or later!"

Shen Ningning was surprised. This little girl Ren Si was different from the rest of the Ren family.

 Looking carefully, even her appearance is not very similar to that of her family members.

Most of the Ren family members have wide faces and phoenix eyes, while Ren Si has a round face and almond-shaped eyes. He is born with a bright and aggressive personality, and he looks like he won't be convinced by anyone.

 What surprised Shen Ningning even more was that Ren Si's attitude towards her was so submissive.

At this time, the wet nurse came out of the house with a complicated look on her face: "Miss Fourth, Madam heard everything you said, but she was very angry. She accused you of being ignorant. Madam asked you to kneel in the ancestral hall without her permission. , you are not allowed to come out."

Ren Si's mocking look suddenly faded and he became angry: "You want me to kneel down in the ancestral hall? Why? I just chatted casually with my eldest sister, why is my mother so angry?" The wet nurse found a high-sounding reason.

"Madam said, you just spilled the medicine and you refused to admit your fault and put the blame on others. This is not the way of the Ren family, so she hopes that you will kneel in front of your ancestors and reflect on your mistakes."

Ren Si became anxious and jumped in anger: "I'll say it again, Ren San spilled the medicine on purpose, it's not my fault."

The wet nurse did not listen to her, and only said coldly: "This servant is only responsible for conveying the madam's orders. Fourth young lady, please go to the ancestral hall quickly, lest I have to slap you on the hand when the master comes back and finds out about this."

Ren Si must have really been beaten. Hearing this, he winced his neck. No matter how unwilling he was, he had no choice but to follow the maid.

When the wet nurse saw her gone, she turned to look at Shen Ningning. The sharp look on Ren Sishi's face completely disappeared. She took the initiative and nodded to Shen Ningning with an apologetic smile before hiding in the room.

It looked like she was afraid that Shen Ningning would call thunder to hit her on the spot.

 The maid beside Shen Ningning also left quickly.

The girl looked at Ren Si's angry back, thoughtfully.

 Perhaps, if you want to know more about the Ren family, Ren Si is a good starting point.

 Shen Ningning went back to the room first.

After noon, she got up from her nap, and Mo Lingwei happened to come back.

The sky outside was gloomy and it was raining. Mo Lingwei opened the curtain and walked in, catching the rain, and his black temples were stained with drops of water.

Shen Ningning handed over her handkerchief, but Mo Lingwei grabbed her wrist, held the handkerchief with her hand, and wiped the rain from his hair.

Shen Ningning puffed up her cheeks and was a little dissatisfied, but seeing Mo Lingwei's hard work, she didn't say anything.

 Just ask: "Did you find out anything when you went out this time?"

"General Peng must have been locked up. I didn't see anyone around him. The deputy generals in the barracks are all Ren Pengyi's men."

Shen Ningning was surprised: "He has completely taken away the military power!"

Mo Lingwei raised his sword eyebrows and nodded seriously: "Logically speaking, it is impossible for him to do it so smoothly, and the capital should not know about it at all. General Peng has good skills, not to mention there are many loyal people in the army. Man, how come no one reported him?"

“Could it be that he bribed all the soldiers?”

"It's possible. I've sent people to check it out. By the way, I went to the city to look around this time and found a new discovery."

Mo Lingwei's tone was full of suspicion: "I heard that recently the prefect Ren was recruiting help from the people in the city to build a high platform, now called the Stairway to Heaven, which will be built to be as high as two star-catching towers stacked on top of each other."

Shen Ningning was stunned: "Why build this? It must cost a lot of manpower and material resources. Is he still in the mood to be extravagant and wasteful?"

Mo Lingwei nodded: "What I find strange is that here, he looks like he is guarding against something. The secret guards went to investigate and found that his foundation was dug very deep and waterproof ditches were made."

 Build a platform that high enough to accommodate three hundred people.

 What is he trying to guard against? flood?

 But this place is located in the northern border with rolling mountains. How could water pour into the city?

Mo Lingwei took Shen Ningning's hand and asked seriously: "Can you feel it? Is there going to be another natural disaster?"

Shen Ningning was stunned and turned to look at the pouring rain outside the window.

 The drizzle continued, and there was nothing suspicious about it.
