Charm King Poison Queen

  Chapter 166 The marriage is not her own (4)

  Qiuxiang nodded: "Well, I won't say it, don't worry." She has no good points, but her mouth is very tight.

   After getting the money, Qiuxiang immediately went to the pharmacy in the daytime and bought back the medicine that Ma Jingyan hadn't finished buying. But Ma Jinyan forbade her to disclose what the two of them had seen, so she waited in the house until dark before going to the Millennium Court with the medicine. Probably because of being too nervous, she dropped a small bag on the ground, but she didn't notice it either.

  When Ning Yue returned home, it was already past dinner time. Dongmei came up to meet her, helped her hang up her book bag, changed into a jacket, and said, "Why is it so late?"

   "Princess took her daughter to buy things, and the road was directly blocked...I'm dying of thirst, give me water." Ning Yue took her hand away by herself, and buttoned the button herself.

  Dongmei poured a glass of warm water and handed it to her.

  After she finished drinking, her eyes swept away: "Qiuxiang hasn't come back yet?"

  Dongmei replied: "I came back and went out again. It seems that things at home have not been handled neatly."

  Ning Yue didn't take it to heart, but she was a little unhappy. The master assigned a lot of homework, and Qiuxiang was not here. Who would write it for her?

   While thinking about it, a maid at the door reported that the orb had arrived.

  Baozhu is the maidservant next to the old lady. She is raised like a girl. It is said that the dowry is ready, and when the old lady does not need her service, she will choose a good husband and marry her. This is the first time for such a person to visit Tangli Courtyard in person.

  Ning Yue got up and fed a piece of jellybean into her mouth: "Why is Sister Baozhu here?"

  Baozhu covered her face and ate the candy, then smiled softly and said, "The old lady is looking for you."

  Ning Yue took off the thin jacket she had just worn for a while, and put on a thick long jacket. When it was time to tie a ribbon, Baozhu said to Dongmei: "Let me do it."

   "Yes." Dongmei stepped aside.

   Baozhu tied the ribbon on Ning Yue, and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid I have to ask about Miss Er, so be careful."

  What happened to Ningxi? Ning Yue's first reaction was that the old lady found out that Ning Xi was looking for someone to set her up, but she was swindled, and Lin Yonghe's affair ended up being tragic. Although Ning Xi is the real culprit, but her "accomplice" is also to blame. How can I deal with it? Of course, that might not be the case. Ning Yue glanced at Baozhu gratefully, no matter what, she remembered this favor.

  The two walked out of Tangli Courtyard hand in hand.

  Dongmei followed behind not too far away, seeing Baozhu talking and laughing happily with the second lady, she was so envious in her heart, and secretly swore that she would become the second Baozhu in the house!

  When he left Tangliyuan, he bumped into Ma Ningxin who was also late.

   Ma Ningxin looked like she was rushing to reincarnate, and almost knocked the orb to the ground, but fortunately Ning Yue helped her up.

   "Sister Baozhu, are you okay?" Ning Yue asked with concern.

   "I'm fine." Baozhu shook her head with a smile, looked at Ma Ningxin, and seeing that she was in a panic, she asked, "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

  Ma Ningxin touched her hot cheeks, lowered her eyes, and said falteringly: "No...it's nothing, I bought something for Niu Niu, I went in first." After speaking, she ran away like escaping.

  Ning Yue and Baozhu looked at each other, and they both saw the confusion in each other's eyes. Ma Ningxin is already twenty-three years old this year, so it stands to reason that she shouldn't be so reckless.

   Lian'er chased after her, and when she saw Ning Yue and Baozhu, she panted and bowed: "Miss San, sister Baozhu."

  Ning Yue grabbed her: "Where did you go? Why did my eldest sister panic like that?"

   Lian'er said: "It's really disgusting to meet a disciple!"
