Chapter 1837 What's going on (first update)
Luo Fengtang stopped the carriage by the side of the road. As soon as the carriage stopped, Xiaoyu couldn't wait to jump down from it, staggering towards the front door of the Ning family.
Yang Ruoqing followed closely behind, holding Xiao Yu firmly. The two of them arrived near the gate of Ning's house, and they saw that an open space had been vacated at the gate.
In the open space, there are some luxurious-looking carriages parked.
Under the eaves of the grand Ning family gate in front of them, the festive red lanterns that could still be seen when I came last night have long been replaced, and the white streamers have been hung up.
"Brother Ning!"
Xiao Yu howled, and was about to go to the gate of Ning's house, but was grabbed by Yang Ruoqing.
"Don't go there yet. Even if you knock on the door and identify yourself, the Ning family's guards won't let us in." Yang Ruoqing said.
"Wait a moment, wait until Tang Yazi stops the carriage and comes over. He has been to Ning's house once before, so let him go and inquire first, maybe he will have an impression."
Hearing At Yang Ruoqing's words, Xiaoyu stood there and cried, covering her mouth and turning into tears.
Soon, Luo Fengtang came over, and Yang Ruoqing quickly sent him over there to inquire about the situation.
I stood opposite and looked across a street from a distance.
Soon, Luo Fengtang came back.
"What's going on with the Ning family?" Yang Ruoqing asked quickly.
Xiao Yu also came over. She looked at Luo Fengtang and asked nervously: "It's not Brother Ning, it's someone else, right?"
Luo Fengtang looked at Xiaoyu with a complicated expression, and squeezed out a few words from his lips: "My condolences."
"What?"
Xiaoyu's breathing was choked for an instant, and then his whole body was shaky.
Yang Ruoqing quickly reached out to support her.
"Xiaoyu..." Tears also fell down, and I didn't know how to comfort him.
Xiaoyu shook his head, his eyes blank.
But he kept repeating one sentence in his mouth: "How could it be possible? How could it be possible? He was so good, why did he die?"
I still have many, many things to ask you...
Suddenly, Xiaoyu broke free from Yang Ruoqing's hand and ran towards the Ning family gate regardless.
"Quick, stop her!" Yang Ruoqing said, and hurried after her.
Over there, the doorman just opened the door and ushered the two guests into the courtyard. Just as he was about to close the door, the light rain passed.
"Brother the guard, please let me in, I want to see Ning Su!" Xiao Yu cried and begged.
The doorman looked at the disheveled Xiaoyu and frowned in disgust.
Hearing Xiaoyu's name again, the guard panicked.
“Where did you come from, crazy woman, let’s go, let’s go!”
He pushed Xiao Yu away, jumped into the threshold as quickly as possible, and slammed the door shut.
Xiaoyu rushed over and slapped the door again, "Please, let me in, Brother Ning..."
Suddenly, she howled, her eyes blackened and she fainted.
Yang Ruoqing chased after Xiaoyu, held Xiaoyu in her arms, stretched out two fingers and touched the side of Xiaoyu's neck.
"She fainted from the anxiety, Tang Yazi, let's take her back first!" Yang Ruoqing said.
...
In the guest room in the backyard of the restaurant, Xiaoyu woke up from a nightmare again.
"Brother Ning, Brother Ning!"
She sat up suddenly and found Yang Ruoqing sitting there beside the bed, holding a small bowl in her hand, speaking lightly The smell of medicine wafted from the small bowl.
“I’m awake now. Come on, take this medicine.” Yang Ruoqing said.
Xiaoyu glanced at the medicine and shook her head.
"I'm going to find Brother Ning..." She opened the quilt and got out of bed. Yang Ruoqing quickly put the medicine bowl aside and reached out to hold Xiaoyu: "Don't go, Xiaoyu, everyone is dead!"
"Dead?" Xiaoyu was stunned.
"No, I don't believe it," she said, "I haven't even asked him yet, how could he die! Wuwuwu..."
Yang Ruoqing came over, hugged Xiaoyu, and let Xiaoyu cry on her shoulder.
"Qing'er, how could this happen? How could this happen!" she cried.
"How did Brother Ning die? Can any of you tell me?" she asked again.
Yang Ruoqing then raised her head and glanced at Luo Fengtang, who was standing aside, "When you were asleep earlier, Tang Yazi went to inquire again, let him tell you."
Xiaoyu's tears were in her eyes Whispering looked at Luo Fengtang.
Luo Fengtang came to the bedside with a solemn expression, stood behind Yang Ruoqing, and spoke in a deep voice.
“The news from the Ning Mansion is that Brother Ning died suddenly in the early hours of this morning. No cause of death can be found.”
“Brother Ning’s father proposed to ask his widow to be the author. Come for an autopsy to find out the cause of death. Brother Ning’s mother and grandmother objected.”
“They thought it would make Brother Ning uneasy...”
After hearing Luo Fengtang’s words, Xiao Yu felt relieved. , completely cold.
Not even a trace of blood could be found on a face.
"Really, really...dead...poof!"
Xiao Yu suddenly covered her chest and spit out a mouthful of blood.
“Xiaoyu!”
Yang Ruoqing exclaimed, “Xiaoyu, don’t be like this. Without Brother Ning, you still have your parents, and us!”
< br>
"If there is something wrong with you, how will I explain it to your parents when I get back!"
While being happy for Xiao Yu, he asked Luo Fengtang to pour a bowl of tea and gave Xiao Yu a sip.
Xiaoyu shook her head and asked Yang Ruoqing: "What time is it now? What's the situation now over Brother Ning's side?"
Yang Ruoqing said: "It's getting dark soon, what's the situation over there at Ning's house?" ...The mourning hall should be set up, and he should be buried after a day or two of rituals."
Xiao Yu lowered his head, and his tears fell on the quilt again.
"Qing'er, please do me a favor. I want to see Brother Ning for the last time, and I want to see him off for the last time..." she said.
Yang Ruoqing nodded lightly, "Tangyaozi and I also have a good relationship with Brother Ning, and the two of them are sworn brothers."
"Let Tangyaozi show off tomorrow morning. As a general, I will go to the Ning family to pay my respects. When the time comes, we will go there together to see Brother Ning off for the last time," she said.
Xiao Yu cried and nodded again.
"Qing'er, please go out, I want to be alone for a while." She said again.
Yang Ruoqing stood up and left the house with Luo Fengtang.
"Go back to your house and rest, I'll guard you here." Yang Ruoqing said.
Luo Fengtang glanced at the closed door, and then at Yang Ruoqing who was guarding the door: "You haven't stopped working on Xiaoyu these days. I'll guard it, and you'll come back." Go to the house and take a nap.”
Yang Ruoqing shook her head. "I'm fine. You can go. She is my best friend. It's not convenient for you to keep her guard."
Luo Fengtang said: "You keep guard here. I've gone back to the house and I don't want to rest. Why not Stay and be your companion.”
Yang Ruoqing glanced at him and knew that his stubborn temper was rising.
"Okay, let's watch together."
......
After a night, Yang Ruoqing and Xiaoyu got up just after dawn the next day.
Both of them changed into plain clothes. Xiaoyu's already pale face, paired with the white flower on her bun, looked so haggard and pitiful that it made people's hearts twitch. .
