Chapter 9 She will never let herself suffer
No matter what Deng Yi said, Deng Youning treated it as the barking of a mad dog.
Her eyes turned to Yu Lian again.
"Did you hear what the prince said?"
"If you hand over the antidote voluntarily, nothing will happen."
"If you let me find the antidote myself, you will be charged with lord slaying and beaten to death!"
Her expression was indifferent and her tone was calm, as if she was just asking Yu Lian what she thought.
But the faint majesty on his body left Yu Lian with no right to choose.
The eldest daughter said that the second daughter who had just returned home was a wild girl who grew up in the valley.
Why does she exude an irresistible aura, as if she is born noble and inviolable?
Even the three members of the Deng family were puzzled by Deng Youning's aura.
For a moment, everyone was stunned.
"This slave deserves death. I will go get the medicine now."
Yulian didn't want to betray the eldest lady, but she felt that if she didn't listen to the second lady, she would die now!
Soon, she brought a small porcelain bottle.
Deng Youning made sure that it was the antidote to the Guixi Pills before giving it to Deng Xuelian.
The effect was immediate. Deng Xuelian coughed a few times and slowly opened her eyes.
Deng Youning tactfully made way for them, allowing the family of four to reunite.
"grandmother."
She supported Han Qiongyue and exchanged glances with her.
"Now that he's awake, we should go back."
Han Qiongyue had a shallow relationship with the Deng family to begin with. After experiencing Deng Xuelian's suicide today, she had a thorough understanding of what fools this family was.
Fortunately, her Huayan women's army was never handed over to Deng Zheng and was mixed into the Deng family army.
Fortunately, she had saved a large sum of money and never thought of relying on her useless son or her evil-minded daughter-in-law to support her in her old age.
It’s just that she feels sorry for her Ningning!
With parents and brothers like this, who will take care of Ningning after she passes away?
Deng Xuelian, who had just woken up, lay in Gu's arms, crying and staring at the receding backs of Deng Youning and Han Qiongyue with vicious eyes.
Deng Youning is still feeling the pain from the injections she gave herself just now.
Why is her martial arts still there? This doesn’t match what I dreamed about!
Also, why did she know that I had taken the Turtle Breathing Pill, and why did she know that Yu Lian must have an antidote?
Deng Xuelian couldn't understand.
She had worse things to deal with right now than figuring this out.
She must give the Deng family a reasonable explanation for this suicide.
"Lian'er, my Lian'er, why are you so stupid? Why are you so depressed?"
Gu hugged Deng Xuelian and cried bitterly.
Deng Yi was also heartbroken.
Deng Zheng, the only one who still had a shred of rationality, asked with concern:
"Lian'er, Ning Ning's meaning is that this servant has poisoned you."
"Do you need Daddy to lock her up and interrogate her strictly?"
He was still counting on Deng Xuelian to become the Crown Princess, but she must not be led astray by these immoral servants.
Yu Lian was still kneeling, not daring to look up.
Deng Xuelian quickly refused:
"Father, don't."
"Yulian grew up with me. She would never do anything to let me down."
"I just accidentally swallowed something, but I'm fine now, right?"
She couldn't let Yu Lian be taken away.
Yu Lian knew that she had too many secrets, and she would only feel at ease if she kept them by her side.
"Father, mother, brother, Lian'er is really fine now."
"This is all thanks to Sister Ningning."
"Now that my sister has returned home, I, as a concubine, should give way to her. When I recover, I will go to the farm in the countryside and I will make sure I will not be an eyesore to my sister."
Having said this, Deng Xuelian started sobbing again.
This little white flower is the one who cries the most, and every time she does, her tears are always in the rain.
A young man like Deng Yi couldn't sit still after seeing this.
The little bit of good impression that Deng Youning had just developed towards Deng Xuelian because she saved him was now completely gone after just a few words from Deng Xuelian.
"Don't be afraid, Lian'er. I, Deng Yi, only have you as my sister in this life."
"If Deng Youning dares to cause trouble to you again, I will stand up for you and will never let her have any good consequences!"
Deng Yi patted his chest and assured.
Gu also knew that her precious Lian'er had been wronged.
She held Deng Xuelian's hands tightly in her own palms and said distressedly:
"My dear daughter, the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion is your home. You can live here peacefully. As long as your parents and brother are here, no one can drive you away."
Deng Zheng was also busy expressing his views:
"Yes, you just came back from the brink of death. Nothing is more important than taking good care of your health."
"If you need anything, or want something, just tell Daddy."
At this point, Deng Zheng suddenly remembered something.
"I heard that Prince Nanxin, who came on a diplomatic mission recently, brought a lot of good things that only Nanxin has."
"Wait for daddy to go to His Majesty and ask for a few little things for you."
As the jewel in the crown of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, what fun things has Deng Xuelian not seen since she was a child?
She treated all the rare treasures from all over the world as toys.
"Thank you, father."
"Lian'er, just know that my father, mother, and brother love me the most."
She was like a kitten, leaning into Gu's arms, her whole body soft and tender, so lovable.
After experiencing this incident, their love and care for Deng Xuelian could only be greater than before.
They knew that Deng Xuelian was an orphan. How would she survive without their support, care and love?

Deng Youning and Han Qiongyue returned to Fushoutang.
Han Qiongyue was very angry just now, and Deng Youning was afraid that she would get upset, so she asked Nanny Dou to make some chrysanthemum tea.
Han Qiongyue drank the tea and sat on the Arhat bed sighing.
Thinking of the way Deng Zheng questioned her just now, she felt extremely heartbroken.
I feel so sad in my heart, what would Ningning, who just came back, think?
"Ningning, come here."
Han Qiongyue saw Deng Youning standing aside and asked her to sit next to her.
"Grandma asks you, did your parents and brother's attitude toward you just now make you unhappy?"
Hearing this, Deng Youning clenched his fists tightly.
She wanted to kill their entire family, and she was still unhappy?
How did they treat themselves in their previous lives?
"No."
She suppressed the murderous intent on her face and replaced it with a smile.
After experiencing all that in her past life, her heart had long since given up on love.
"My granddaughter knows that even if there is blood relationship as evidence, after all, I have not grown up with them for so many years. It is normal for them to not tolerate me for a while."
"I am a very open-minded person, otherwise I would have died in the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes a long time ago."
"Just like the one thousand taels of silver I asked them for just now, I know that my parents and my brother's hearts can only accommodate one daughter and one sister."
"If they can't give me love, at least they can give me some material things."
Deng Youning had already made plans for the one thousand taels of silver.
According to her memories of her previous life, she wanted to go into business.
In a while, the Silver Dragon Guards will confiscate the homes of a number of corrupt officials, and she plans to take this opportunity to buy out their shops and business opportunities.
She remembered that the most prosperous business was that of General Li's family in Zhenbei.
Because they are affiliated with the Qingzhou Mu family, if they can follow the richest family, they can eat meat and have a share of soup, and they will definitely make a lot of money.
It was enough for her and her grandmother to live on.
Seeing that she didn't know what she was thinking, Han Qiongyue felt more and more that this girl was too smart!
She would never let herself suffer any loss.
"Grandma, don't you blame Ningning for bargaining with father and the others just now?"
When Deng Youning made a bet with the Deng family for one thousand and two taels of silver, she was a little afraid that her grandmother would dislike her because of this and think that she was narrow-minded and calculating.
"Humph, their biological daughter is coming home, and they didn't prepare any gifts. How can they be so embarrassed?"
Han Qiongyue was not willing to tolerate them at all and she wished she could scold those unfilial descendants in person to wake them up.
"I will take this one thousand taels of silver as their welcome gift to you."
