Chapter 303 The last time someone treated me like a treasure was in my previous life
Xiao Ying brought Ning Leshu into the house, while Kang Ruolan wisely led a group of servants to help move things.
Ning Leshu brought a whole carriage, which contained good things brought from the capital, things bought in the county in the past two days, and some daily necessities for her own use.
Xiao Ying placed her in another main house. No one had lived in that house since it was built, but it was cleaned every day and all kinds of supplies were available.
As for Ning Leshu's two maids and old women, they lived in the outer room of the main house, and the coachman and another servant were arranged in the back seat. No one had any objection.
Ning Leshu stuffed all the good things he brought from Shangjing into Xiao Ying's hands.
There were brocades used as tributes, several priceless head ornaments, precious bracelets, jade pendants, dresses... and even shoes and socks.
Soon, a small hill was piled up in front of Xiao Ying.
Looking at the dazzling array of items, Xiao Ying was moved. The last time she was treated like a treasure like this was in her previous life, when her master loved her like this when he was still alive.
After her master passed away, she grew up overnight, from a person who was taken care of to a protective umbrella for others, and has been so until now.
"Thank you, Mom."
She had a sincere smile on her face, and for the first time she felt that coming into this world was not bad.
Ning Leshu smiled even happier than her, patted the back of her hand, and looked at her lovingly.
"Why should I say thank you to you, mother? As long as you like it, it's fine. I only picked a few things this time. If you come back to the capital with me..."
He quickly stopped talking here and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his daughter was not unhappy.
"I'll keep the rest for you. You can use it whenever you go back."
"good."
Xiao Ying agreed with a smile, and Ning Leshu immediately became even happier, as this meant that her daughter was willing to be close to her.
"I also have a gift for Mom."
As he spoke, Xiao Ying casually took out two small white jade bottles.
"These are two pills I accidentally obtained. One bottle contains longevity pills. One pill can extend your life by three years. There are three pills in total. They can also make you look more energetic and younger."
"The other bottle contains the Resurrection Pill. As long as you still have breath left, taking one pill will save your life. However, I don't have many of these pills, so there's only one left."
These two kinds of pills are the most precious among the primary elixirs. She cannot refine them at her current level. They were collected from the Immortal Palace before, and the quantity is very limited.
In return for her mother's kindness to her, she naturally feels grateful for her mother's kindness.
Two bottles of pills were stuffed into Ning Leshu's hands. Ning Leshu's eyes suddenly turned red and he refused to take them no matter what.
"Such a precious thing must have been hard to come by, Yingying. You should keep it for yourself."
Compared to these things, what were the things she brought?
At this moment, she didn't even think deeply about how Xiao Ying, a village woman, could get these things.
Xiao Ying said: "I have more here, these are for mother, please don't despise them."
Although Ning Leshu does not look old, he is nearly fifty years old and is not young in this era.
Such a good mother, she hopes she can live a few more years.
"Do you really still have it? Did you lie to your mother?" Ning Leshu was half-believing and half-doubting.
"I really didn't lie to you, so just accept it."
"Then, I'll accept it. Thank you Yingying."
Ning Leshu burst into laughter, his heart was filled with warmth, and his face was filled with a happy smile.
Xiao Ying raised the corner of his lips and reminded her how to take these pills and the precautions. Ning Leshu listened carefully and nodded repeatedly.
Remembering how precious these pills were, he became curious about where his daughter had gotten them, but wisely didn't ask.
At noon, Xiao Ying asked someone to prepare several new dishes from the food workshop. Ning Leshu praised them highly and felt that he had not eaten such delicious food for a long time.
After a short rest after lunch, Xiao Ying took her to visit several workshops, and Ning Leshu nodded repeatedly.
Knowing that several workshops could earn at least tens of thousands of taels of silver every month, she felt relieved. It seemed that her daughter was indeed not short of money.
Then there was another sigh. If such a good and capable daughter grew up in Beijing, she would definitely be the most dazzling pearl.
Near the hour of You, Chen Xinghai and Chen Xingyun returned home one after another. Xiao Ying took the opportunity to bring Chen Xingyue out as well, allowing the three children to meet their grandmother.
This was the first time the three of them met Ning Leshu. They found that he was more gentle and kind than they had imagined. They were satisfied and relieved for a moment.
"Meet Grandmother."
"Okay, okay, they are all good kids."
Ning Leshu was overjoyed. He took the hands of the three people and looked at them one by one, feeling very satisfied.
Although these three children came from the countryside, it was obvious that they were well brought up by their daughter.
He has a handsome face, bright eyes and eyebrows, and is well-behaved and polite in every move.
Although he lacks the bearing of a real aristocratic family, he is still presentable.
"This is a gift from your grandmother. Don't be disgusted."
She took out a few small items and handed them to the three people. The three people took them and thanked her in unison.
"Thank you, Grandma."
The gift given to Chen Xinghai was a jade pendant without any other colors, the gift given to Chen Xingyun was a green hairpin, and the gift given to Chen Xingyue was an exquisite pearl flower, all of which were very valuable.
"As long as you like it." Then he looked at Xiao Ying and said, "I also prepared a gift for Xinghe. I'll give it to him next time I see him."
Xiao Ying smiled and said, "Xinghe will be on leave in a few days. I will take him to see mother then."
"That's great." Ning Leshu praised, "We can't delay the children's schooling."
With Ning Leshu around, the atmosphere in the house seemed much more lively, and the children noticed that their mother smiled more often.
Although my mother is not my original mother, she seems to have a good relationship with my grandmother.
If it were that mother from before... The three of them shuddered at the same time. They would definitely show off about it everywhere, causing a huge commotion.
That night, Ning Leshu talked to Xiao Ying for a long time until he could no longer bear it and fell into a deep sleep at midnight.
Xiao Ying looked helpless and waited until she fell asleep before leading everyone into the fairy palace.
Who knew that after practicing for a while, alarm bells suddenly rang in his mind, and he instantly flashed out with Ling Yun and Xiao Qian.
The snow wolf's hair stood up, and it stared at the gate as if facing a great enemy, and then let out a roar.
In an instant, everyone in the house was awakened.
Xiao Ying's expression changed slightly, and he immediately brought Chen Xinghai and the other two out and asked them to accompany Ning Leshu.
The door creaked open, and Xiao Ying, with a frosty face, strode out with Ling Yun and Xiao Qian.
Her intuition told her that the person coming was not a good person and was most likely in the late stage of Qi Refining!
There was no one outside the house.
Xiao Ying suddenly looked up at the sky. Under the moonlight, he saw two figures floating in the air, one orange and one black, their clothes fluttering in the wind.
It turned out to be the seventh level of Qi Refining, and there were two of them!
When the two men saw her appear, they slowly descended from mid-air and soon landed on the ground, forming a confrontation.
It was Xia Yu, the young master of the Xia family, and Xia Ming, another powerful man of the Xia family.
"Are you Xiao Ying? This courtyard protection formation is quite well arranged."
