Ever since Guoguo and Baimei became friends, Qiuge's status in Guoguo's place has plummeted. Jian Ning discovered that he was a complete scumbag. Before Qiuge came, he chased the four little silver foxes all day long. Now that Qiuge came, he only chased after Qiuge. After he got together with Baimei, he abandoned Qiuge and chased after Baimei all day long.
He deserved to be tricked by Baimei.
Jian Ning turned her head and looked down, and saw it jumping high in place, probably cursing Baimei for being unfair, saying that they had agreed to watch the house together but he ended up leaving it and running away.
"You bad bird!" Jian Ning grabbed Baimei and poked it on the forehead. "If you dare to betray me in the future, I will pluck out all your feathers!"
Baimei's little head was tilted up and down by her poking, and his eyes looked extremely intelligent and calm.
Just like a cold and aloof king.
It was the first time for Erniu and Sanniu to experience the feeling of flying in the air. At first, they were very excited and laughed loudly. As Qiu Ge's flying speed became faster and faster, and the sound of the wind whistled in their ears, they both buried their faces in their parents' arms and stopped talking.
Jian Ning then released the drone, entered the destination as Beijing, signaled Brother Qiu to follow the drone, and threw the bags on his and Ding Youtian's shoulders, as well as Baimei, into the Baicaojian.
After flying for about an hour and a half, Brother Qiu slowly landed as the drone descended. Jane Ning looked up and saw an ancient building vaguely in front of her. She retracted the drone and guided Brother Qiu to continue flying forward.
In fact, Brother Qiu didn't need to follow the drone. He had lived in Prince Yong's Mansion when he followed Feng Qingzi before, so he was familiar with the capital. He seemed a little excited to return to the old place, and Jian Ning remembered that he was not unfamiliar with the capital.
She told Brother Qiu to land outside the city. It was only the fourth watch, and the city was still under curfew. They didn't know where the Huo Mansion was, so if they rashly wandered into the city, they would easily be taken away by patrolmen. But Brother Qiu disobeyed her orders this time and carried them into the city from a secluded spot near the southeast gate.
Brother Qiu seemed to be able to sense A'man's location. After entering the city, Jian Ning and Ding Youtian followed it, each holding one.
In the quiet night, the moonlight lengthened their shadows and cast them on the empty streets.
When they arrived in front of a house, Qiu Ge stopped. Ding Youtian looked up and saw that the plaque on the gate read "Huo Mansion" and there were two white jade lions in front of the gate.
"Should we find a place to hide first? It might not be appropriate to knock on the door now." Just as Jian Ning finished speaking, Brother Qiu flew into the yard.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jian Ning took out all the things she had brought, except Baimei. She guessed that Brother Qiu had gone in, and she was afraid that Ah Man would make a move soon.
Sure enough, within a moment, there was a commotion in the courtyard, with people and horses falling to the ground. After a burst of noise, Huo Jincheng's voice rang out from behind the door, "Is Brother Ding here?"
"That's right." Ding Youtian responded from outside.
"Open the door quickly." Huo Jincheng's voice fell behind, and the door creaked and slowly opened.
Huo Jincheng stepped out, followed by a servant holding a lantern. He was stunned when he saw Jian Ning, then he turned sideways and gestured for her to come in. "Please come in, there are people outside to get these things, don't worry, come in!"
Jian Ning and Ding Youtian carried the still sleeping Erniu and Sanniu in their arms, chatting with Huo Jincheng all the way inside. Just as they passed the hanging flower gate, they saw a petite figure hurriedly running from the corridor under the moonlight.
There were several people chasing after him.
Lanterns were lit up everywhere.
"Mom, Second Dad!" Ah Man ran over happily, "Ah, Jia Jia Yao Yao, wow, Yuan Bao and Zhao Cai are here too!"
"Wake up, wake up, Jia Jia, Yao Yao, I'm A'man, it's A'man!" She jumped and danced, exactly like the A'man before. It seemed that she had learned the rules in vain.
Erniu and Sanniu were woken up by her. They rubbed their eyes and yawned, still in a daze and didn't know where they were. It was not until Ah Man jumped up and down and shouted a few times that they came to their senses.
"Put me down now!"
"Put me down, I want to get down!"
After the two babies landed on the ground, the three of them held hands and jumped up and down. A graceful young woman walked over and bowed to Ding Youtian and Jian Ningfu.
"Mr. Ding, Mrs. Ding."
Perhaps Huo Jincheng was worried that Jian Ning had been living in the countryside and didn't know the rules and etiquette. As a wife, she didn't need to bow to other people's concubines, so he said, "This is my concubine Yunniang."
Jian Ning nodded. She knew this even if Huo Jincheng hadn't introduced her. She didn't care about it as long as they got along well. However, she didn't have a good impression of Yunniang at first sight, so she nodded and stopped looking at her.
"Mom, I miss you so much. Do you miss me?" Ah Man, Erniu and Sanniu went crazy for a while, then threw themselves into Jian Ning's arms, hugged her waist, looked up at her and asked with a smile.
"What do you think?" Jian Ning pinched her nose. "If I didn't want you, I wouldn't have come with you."
"I know that mother loves me the most. I have dreamed of her many times. Has she ever dreamed of me?"
This question stumped Jane Ning. She seemed to have never dreamed of Ah Man. Looking at Ah Man's expectant eyes, she couldn't bear to tell the truth.
"Mother, I'm not lying. I seldom dream. Even if I do, I forget it as soon as I open my eyes. But in my heart, I always miss my little Ah Man."
That was enough. Ah Man was so happy that he hugged her waist and jumped several times. Jian Ning noticed an unfriendly gaze coming towards her. When she looked over, she saw Yunniang turned her head and gently brushed the long gown on Huo Jincheng.
It was as if she had never looked at Jane Ning before.
"Where is Brother Qiu?" Jian Ning asked A'man.
"In the backyard, it said it was tired, so I let it rest first."
"I'm sure you're tired. Why don't you rest first? We can talk later when we get up." After Huo Jincheng finished speaking, Yunniang said, "I've already had the guest room ready. Please ask Mr. Ding, his wife, and the two young ladies to come with me."
Huo Jincheng asked Yunniang to lead the way, and he personally sent them to the guest room. Ah Man also followed. Jian Ning found that the father and daughter had not spoken a word from beginning to end, and she was afraid that it was related to the departure of Yuechan and his sister.
"Man'er." After Huo Jincheng and Yunniang left, Jian Ning pulled Ah Man aside and asked, "Are you arguing with your father? I haven't heard you call him or talk to him since we walked in."
"Hmph!" Ah Man curled his lips. "I don't want to pay attention to Daddy. He drove away all my mother's people. I hate him, so I'll just ignore him!"
Sure enough, as Jane Ning guessed, although this was a matter between father and daughter, and as an outsider she was not in a position to interfere, but since Ah Man called her mother, she could still persuade Ah Man.
"I heard from mom that he's your father, the person who loves you the most in this world. Don't get angry with him, just let it go, okay?"
Ah Man pursed her lips, thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Mother, I still have a lot to tell you, and only you. I'll tell you after I wake up from my sleep. I'm going to go find my aunt first and ask her to send someone to tell my grandfather not to ask Madam Sun to come over and teach me the rules today. I want to accompany mother and Jiajia and Yaoyao. I don't want to learn anything these days."
"Mom, you guys take a rest first. Man'er is leaving now."
She bent her knees sideways and bowed to Jian Ning and Ding Youtian, then followed the maid waiting outside.
