Chapter 253: Confession
Su Yanli smiled and said, "Ajin, this is Mr. Ning Qi, and this is the young lady of the Ning family."
Su Ruojin smiled and bowed to them, "Ah Jin greets the Seventh Master and the Eighth Lady."
"My sister offended me yesterday, please don't take it as an offense, Madam Su Er."
I said it yesterday. Even if she wanted to be offended, you are the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and the General's Mansion. Who would dare to be offended by such status and position in the Dayin Dynasty? But she is polite because she is well-mannered.
That's not right. If she had good manners, she wouldn't have run out and started looking for someone to fight with. How can you explain that?
As if to resolve the grudge between the two, Ning Qilang smiled and said, "We will be staying in Weizhou County for a while, and we will come here often in the future. Please, Madam Su Er, take my sister to meet him."
Su Ruojin: ...
Ningning: ...
The two looked at each other.
Ningning looked away.
Apparently, the little girl was forced by her brother to 'reconcile'.
Su Ruojin pretended that she didn't see the young lady's unwillingness to 'make peace', and said with a smile, "Young lady Ning, please come this way——"
Ningning pursed her lips and refused to move.
Ning Qillang stared at his sister. It was unknown what signal he gave her, but Miss Ning reluctantly followed Su Ruojin out of the living room.
General Ning had nine children, seven boys and two girls. The first one was a daughter, the eighth was a daughter, and the remaining seven were sons. However, three of the seven sons are no longer alive, having died on the battlefield.
Therefore, the glory and status that the General's Mansion has today were built with blood, life and death.
Ning Qillang and Ning Banniang seem to be ranked very close, but in fact they are several years apart in age.
Ning Qillang is twenty years old this year, the same age as Zhao Lan. Ning Banniang is fifteen years old this year, one year older than Su Ruojin, and they are just the right age to discuss marriage.
Last year, Ning Qilang went to the battlefield with General Ning and met Zhao Lan, who was the same age as him. At first, he didn't think much of Zhao Lan. Although he had heard from his father that Zhao Lan had become the deputy envoy of the Imperial City Department at a young age, he thought that he was just taking advantage of the royal family. But on the real battlefield, Zhao Lan's ability far exceeded his imagination. If he had not followed his father to important border towns and went to the battlefield many times when he was a child, he would definitely be surpassed by Zhao Lan.
Not only did he admire such a capable person, but his father also valued his talent. As soon as the war was over, he wanted to marry his younger sister to Prince Zhao, but he was rejected by him, saying that he had a fiancée.
His father didn't believe it and thought he was smart. He might be trying to avoid something, so he rejected him and asked his grandmother to find out. His grandmother had always been in the circle of the capital and soon found out, "I heard that this child is close to his teacher's daughter, but the Princess of Jin has always disagreed. Maybe there is a chance."
So the grandmother asked someone to find the Princess of Jin. Unexpectedly, the Princess of Jin disagreed. However, she doted on her youngest son, so she had to agree to Zhao Lan's proposal to the Su family.
When the younger sister heard that her father was planning to marry Prince Zhao, she jumped for joy. She had already seen Prince Zhao at the flower party in Prince Jin's mansion. He was elegant and beautiful, and there was no young lady in the capital who didn't want to marry him, and her younger sister was no exception. When she heard that she could marry Zhao Lan, she was so happy that she couldn't sleep well for several days. She didn't expect that it didn't work out. She was so sad that she couldn't help but run to Weizhou County, and took the opportunity of staying in the villa to relax and see what method Madam Su Er used to charm Prince Zhao.
The little girl kept staring at her, almost staring a hole in Su Ruojin's body.
"Miss Ning, stop looking. I'm the same as you, two eyes and one mouth. Nothing special."
"Then why did Brother Zhao only choose you?"
Su Ruojin looked at the young lady.
Ningning: ...confessing without being asked.
