Chapter 272 The General is Back
When the news of Wei Zhao's death reached Shangjing, Xiao Huaiyan's eyes turned red and he beat up the mourning soldiers.
Actually, he couldn't accept the bad news.
But he wants to save face.
He opened his mouth and said that he was crying because Wei Zhao owed him money.
I don’t know whether others believe it or not.
Ning Yunling was convinced.
For a time, there were many officials and children of aristocratic families who were rushing to repay Wei Zhao's debts.
Xiao Huaiyan felt so uncomfortable that he wanted to die.
But money...he doesn't refuse anyone who comes.
It’s also spent.
Ning Yunling continued to accuse.
"I thought you had some conscience when you went to take his coffin to Beijing. But you didn't even shed a tear when he was buried!"
Xiao Huaiyan:...
Then It was because he knew that the person in the coffin was not Wei Zhao.
When he was in Ze County, he knew it well.
But can he say it?
"I cried as if my parents were dead. You were still laughing at me for crying ugly."
Xiao Huaiyan: "It's really ugly, don't you know? ”
Ning Yunling was very sad.
"I miss my cousin."
"He has been dead for so long, he must have been reincarnated."
Xiao Huaiyan: "Ning Yunling."
"? "
Xiao Huaiyan: "You have reached the age of marriage, right?"
Ning Yunling: "What does it have to do with you?"
Xiao Huaiyan said casually: "Listen to my advice. Get a wife as soon as possible. There is no guarantee that Wei Zhao will be reincarnated as your son."
This is obviously a joke.
But Ning Yunling is just a tall girl, not a brain.
He pondered.
"It makes sense."
"But. If he is really reincarnated, should I call him cousin or son?"
Xiao Huaiyan:...
It’s really not easy for you to grow up so big.
He was about to laugh.
But his eyes were sharply looking downstairs.
A carriage just passed by.
He caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye. The person driving the carriage was none other than Shunzi.
Xiao Huaiyan was shocked.
That person is finally coming back?
Not caring about anything else, he ran downstairs and tried to catch up.
But when others arrive downstairs, where is the shadow of the carriage?
————
Go to Beijing to shun the Duke’s mansion.
The Ning family's carriage is parked at the door.
Mrs. Ning's legs and feet were not good and she was helped down tremblingly.
The one who supported her was the solemn-looking Ning Guohou, Ning Yunling's father, and the brother of Shun Guo's wife Ning Suchan.
The old lady has lived a pampered life for many years and is well-dressed. She does not have many accessories on her body, but her nobility cannot be concealed. She raised her head and glanced at the plaque on the door of Duke Shunguo's Mansion.
The words above are powerful and lively.
Under the refraction of light, the door plaque is no longer as golden as before.
The white silk from the house has not been removed.
The door of the Wei family was tightly closed, and the white lanterns were swaying, leaving only a desolate scene.
Mrs. Ning let out a long sigh.
Ning Guohou said in a low voice: "When something happened to me when I returned home, my little sister was deeply saddened. Everyone in the house refused to see guests. I only saw her once, and I couldn't see her again when I came back." "
"Qian'er heard from the woman who was waiting for her that she had a cold and was ill again. "
Mrs. Ning hit the ground with her cane: "Your sister has always been the most thoughtful and keeps everything in her heart. Don't you know? Even I, a mother, can't guess what she is thinking. She lost her husband early in her life. When something happened to Feng Xing, if I hadn't thought about returning home, I'd be afraid..."
Mrs. Ning still remembers that Ning Suchan almost didn't make it through after something happened to Duke Shun Wei Fengxing.
My daughter has always been dignified and decent.
But that time I cried into tears in her arms.
She stroked Ning Suchan's back: "It's my parents' fault. When your engagement was annulled by the royal family, no one dared to ask for your hand in marriage. After my uncle came, he couldn't find any fault. Come on, even better than that one. We agreed to the marriage without asking for your opinion.”]
["I know you won't blame us, but in the end, you became a widow at such a young age..."]
Ning Suchan choked and said.
["I hesitated to marry into the Wei family. But I never regretted it."] "I was extremely sad when something happened to me, let alone her, the mother-in-law?"
Mrs. Ning was angry: "If Yun Ling hadn't spilled the beans in front of me, would you still want to hide her previous suicide attempt?"
"What did I tell you before? I told you to take good care of her, take good care of her, and this is how you take care of her?"
Ning Guohou lowered his head again and again after being scolded.
"It's my fault. But I am also thinking of you, mother..."
I have poor health.
Wei Zhao fell ill due to an accident. How dare they make Mrs. Ning tired?
"You think I'm old and useless?"
Ning Guohou said hurriedly: "I don't dare."
Mrs. Ning didn't say anything anymore, and the two of them walked up the steps.
The door of the Wei family was closed tightly.

Marquis Ning Guo raised his hand and knocked on the door knocker.
Soon, the door was gently opened by the people inside.
The lady who was the gatekeeper of the Wei family had not yet poked her head out, but Sheng'er arrived first.
"Our lady refuses to see guests..."
After seeing the person, the voice disappeared in her throat.
The madam has spoken, but her mother's family has also disappeared.
But among the people who came today, there was also Mrs. Ning.
Mrs. Ning didn’t look like she wanted to force her way in: “I won’t embarrass you servants.”
“Go and ask Suchan if she can see me. Her mother ran away. I feel really tired during this trip and want to ask my daughter for a cup of tea. "
The Wei family is a hairpin family and their mansion is huge.
There are servants taking care of it, and the house has been cleaned with no sign of decay.
The mother-in-law ran all the way there.
After running back, there was sweat on her forehead, but she didn't bother to wipe it away.
I quickly made a gesture of invitation to Mrs. Ning.
"My dear old lady, please come in."
As soon as I walked into the main courtyard, I heard a suppressed cough inside.
Mrs. Ning’s face gradually darkened.
The pace quickens.
The servants serving in the main courtyard respectfully opened the curtain.
Mrs. Ning entered, walked around the screen, and saw Ning Suchan, who was leaning on the couch and leaning against her confidant's mother-in-law, who was extremely thin.
His eyes suddenly turned red.
She sat down in front of the bed.
“It’s hard for you to meet my mother.”
After not speaking for a long time, Ning Suchan’s voice became hoarse: “Auntie.”
Old Mrs. Ning He twirled the quilt for her: "Your body, hair, and skin are affected by your parents, are you being unfilial?"
Ning Suchan's hand was held by her.
It is warm.
"I know you are feeling bitter, but my child, you have to look forward."
"You have no child, my mother-in-law is considerate of you. But you are considerate and considerate of my mother-in-law. My mother-in-law." We can’t lose the child.”
The corners of Ning Suchan’s eyes were wet, but she didn’t want to speak.
At this moment, a carriage stopped steadily in front of Duke Shun's Mansion.
Wei Zhao's face was extremely pale, and he looked like he was terminally ill.
He was helped out of the carriage by Yu Tingwan.
The woman guarding the door wiped her eyes, then wiped her eyes again in disbelief.
Looking at the ground, there is the shadow of Wei Zhao.
She shouted loudly.
"The general is back!"
The servant sweeping the floor in the courtyard heard the sound and dropped the broom in his hand.
"The general is not dead, the general is back."
The Wei family, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly exploded.
"Quick! Go and tell the mistress that the general is back."
The news was passed on layer by layer.
After receiving the letter, the maid in the main courtyard couldn't care about anything else and ran inside.
Forgetting about dignity and etiquette, I stumbled when I crossed the threshold.
Bang.
She was lying on the ground, but she didn't feel any pain.
The sound was particularly loud
"Madam, our general is back."
Ning Suchan raised her eyes fiercely.
