Chapter 12: The granddaughter I found is still the most filial
There is no wall that is completely airtight.
What’s more, the matter between Deng Youning and Deng Yi has caused such a big stir.
She and Yingshi had just finished their breakfast when Nanny Dou called Deng Youning to Fushou Hall.
When Deng Youning arrived, Deng Yi was already kneeling at the door as punishment.
This morning's incident was caused by Deng Yi. Just ask the people in the kitchen and the truth will be revealed.
Han Qiongyue sat down with her hand on her forehead, feeling tired.
She knew that her grandson was not a petty person, but why couldn't he tolerate even his own sister?
"Ningning greets grandma, may grandma be blessed."
Han Qiongyue then looked up and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Deng Youning looking normal.
This child has a mind that doesn't belong to her age.
It was so calm and peaceful, as if nothing had happened. Han Qiongyue felt that she couldn't do it.
"Your brother has gone too far. Grandmother has already taught him a lesson for you."
"He will never do that again."
Han Qiongyue took Deng Youning's hand and promised her.
From the time she returned home yesterday until now, she knew that her granddaughter had suffered a lot of injustice.
But the child didn't say a word.
If Deng Youning could frown a little and express her dissatisfaction, perhaps she wouldn't be so heartbroken.
It's because this child is too strong and has an ability to endure pain that is beyond the reach of ordinary people, which makes her even more sad.
Han Qiongyue couldn't imagine how much suffering her Ningning had endured since she was a child? !
She could not take the criticism seriously even though it was so harsh.
"Why don't you let your granddaughter come to Fushoutang to eat with you for all three meals from now on?"
“Eating together with more people is more lively and delicious.”
Deng Youning was just thinking about this question.
She is also learning the art of poison now. If Deng Xuelian really wants to poison her grandmother, she can help keep an eye on them by dining with them.
Hearing her say this, Han Qiongyue couldn't stop smiling.
The granddaughter I found is the most filial!
"Okay, let Madam Dou tell the kitchen staff what you want to eat every day."
"Grandma promises to fatten you up!"
Han Qiongyue touched her bony arm and couldn't help showing her distressed expression.
It was okay that we didn’t have enough to eat in the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes before.
Now that I'm back home, what would it mean if I continued to starve?
"Thank you, Grandma."
"Then ask the kitchen to cook a pot of mung bean, lotus seed and lily porridge."
"All of these ingredients can reduce internal heat. Grandma has been very upset about me recently. I am an unfilial granddaughter."
Deng Youning felt very uncomfortable thinking about her grandmother, who was already very old and had vomited blood yesterday because of anger,.
Before she knew it, her voice began to choke.
Han Qiongyue could see her true feelings and was very moved.
Deng Xuelian, who had been by his side for sixteen years, and Deng Yi, who had been by his side for eighteen years, were not as good as Deng Youning, whom he had only known for a month.
It is her luck that such a good child can be her granddaughter.
Han Qiongyue wanted to train Deng Youning to be a man of both literary and martial talents.
He gave her a copybook of calligraphy, several books for children's enlightenment, such as Thousand Character Classic and Rules for Being a Good Pupil and Child, and asked her to study them carefully in her own courtyard.
In her previous life, Deng Youning was also raised like this by Han Qiongyue for two years.
Although I can't speak eloquently or write brilliantly, I can recognize words and write in daily life.
Putting aside the book given by her grandmother, she continued to pick up the book on the art of poison and began to study it.
She didn't have time to go out, so she asked the secret guards of Wanshe Valley to buy some poisons and poisonous insects for her.
These days, Han Qiongyue herself has been busy preparing for a family reunion banquet for Deng Youning.
These small matters should be left to daughter-in-law Gu.
But she knew very well that the Gu family did not like Deng Youning and would definitely be perfunctory in their approach, or even fail to give Deng Youning the standards and treatment that a legitimate daughter should have.
So I have to do it myself.
The first three days of the family reunion banquet.
Deng Zheng used his previous achievements in suppressing bandits to ask the emperor for a jade bracelet that was presented as tribute by the envoy from Nanxin.
When these jewels first arrived at the palace, the best ones were provided for the empress, empress dowager, concubines, princesses, county ladies, and so on, who were selected according to their rank.
After they have picked the rest, it will be the turn of ministers like Deng Zheng.
He took a fancy to a jade bracelet that was as crystal clear as a lychee.
In the middle, there is a bit of red agate, like a bit of plum red on the snow, which is particularly artistic.
Just as she was about to take a step forward to pick up the bracelet, a large hand with distinct joints took the lead.
"I have been searching for half an hour, and only this Mirror Moon Nine Immortal Blood White Jade can match her."
Li Tianzhuo took the bracelet, looked at it carefully, and was very sure.
At Ning Ning's family reunion party, you must prepare your own gifts.
He glanced at Deng Zheng who was standing aside, but he put the bracelet away and walked away as if he didn't see anything.
Deng Zheng hesitated for a moment, and when Li Tianzhuo was about to reach the door, he called him.
"Commander Li, please stay."
He quickly caught up with Li Tianzhuo and bowed slightly.
"Duke of Zhenguo? What's your business?"
In his previous life, if Deng Zheng, as a father, had not done nothing and listened to slander, his Ningning would not have suffered so much and died tragically.
Although Li Tianzhuo wanted to kill the other party, he didn't want to act rashly against Deng Zheng before he knew what Deng Youning meant by him in this life.
"I wonder if the commander would be willing to give up the bracelet I just saw?"
"Just consider it as a favor that I owe you. If you find a treasure in the future, or if the commander has other needs, I will definitely help you."
Deng Zheng is a Duke after all, and in terms of rank, he is one level higher than Li Tianzhuo.
If someone else heard what he said, they would definitely give in.
After all, being able to give face to the Duke is something that one would love to have.
But Li Tianzhuo was in charge of supervising all officials. Apart from the emperor, anyone else's face was of no use to him.
He chuckled, but asked with interest:
"I wonder who the Duke is going to give this bracelet to?"
Deng Zheng did not say it directly: "Of course she is my eldest daughter."
"I've always heard that the Duke of Zhenguo is a daughter slave and dotes on her like his life."
"It seems that those rumors are true!"
Why are you so biased?
The palms and backs of the hands are all made of flesh, so why can't he share some of his fatherly love with Ningning?
"Deng's daughter unfortunately got food poisoning a few days ago and nearly died, so I thought of making some small toys to please her."
After listening to Deng Zheng's explanation, Li Tianzhuo sneered.
Ning Ning never got any of his gifts.
Under the large silver sleeves, Li Tianzhuo's fists were clenched tightly, making a creaking sound.
He suppressed his anger and tried his best to remain calm.
"Oh, the eldest daughter ate something bad and needs a gift to comfort her."
"I wonder if your little daughter, who you left in the enemy country for sixteen years without paying any attention to, has returned home recently. Do you have any gifts for her?"
These words made Deng Zheng's face turn pale instantly.
He felt so guilty that beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
But thinking of the wild girl who had been restless since she came back and had cheated him out of one thousand taels of silver a few days ago, Deng Zheng had nothing to feel guilty about.
He straightened his back and said, "Of course, I gave you one thousand taels!"
Li Tianzhuo, who had been sending people to keep an eye on the Duke's Mansion, of course knew that the one thousand taels were earned by Deng Youning with her own ability.
But he couldn't expose Deng Zheng.
“Oh, I see.”
"Then we have the meeting gift. I wonder what the recognition gift will be at the banquet in three days?"
