Chapter 454 With Scruple, She Cannot Afford to Gamble
Ning Qingshan knew this matter was a big deal, so she tried her best to pretend that she had nothing to do with this. Regardless of her injured leg, she knelt on the ground with it. With her nose running and tears coming out, she was desperate to show her sincere feeling toward Ning Xueyan. By swearing up and down that she did nothing wrong, she tried to make Madam Dowager believe her, which was her only purpose.
Perhaps it was because Ning Qingshan's expression was too sincere, Madam Dowager‘s manner relaxed a little. Though her face was still dark, she looked slightly different now.
"Grandmother, no matter how stupid I am, I know that we sisters are closely linked, and we all rise and fall together. I clearly know that if anything happens to Fifth Sister, Prince Yi will never forgive the people of the Lord Protector's Manor. I'm the co-consort appointed by the emperor, but I'm nothing in Prince Yi's eyes. Besides, I haven't yet married. If the Lord Protec

As a matter of fact, Lanning didn't leave until she saw all that had happened. Although she couldn't see what was going on inside, she clearly saw Mammy Luo and the others kneel in the courtyard. After Madam Dowager went far away, she held the ointment in her hands, pretending to be in a hurry. Then she passed by their courtyard without glancing at them.Inside the room, Ning Xueyan was staring blankly at the rack of wisteria flowers outside the window.When they were chatting casually that day, Ning Xueyan didn't get into lengthy conversations with Ao Chenyi. She just couldn't understand why he would say that Ning Ziying had been engaged more than once. Sure enough, he wouldn't utter nonsense. But she didn't know this matter at all. Could there be anything else involved in this matter?Ning Xueyan had always thought that Grand Tutor Ya was powerful. Now, more and more, she felt that Grand Tutor Ya couldn't be underestimated. He was almost the

"What can I do for you?" The curtains of the window fluttered, blown into the room by the fierce wind swirling around the hillside. "Bang! Bang! Bang!" From time to time, the curtains hit the wooden frames, making the very loud sounds. Such constant noise gave people the creeps.It was especially terrifying when a figure was standing still on the windowsill in the dark, moonless night.All of a sudden, Ning Qingshan woke up from her dream. Before she could scream, she heard a cold and weird voice coming from the window. In the darkness, the figure there was facing her. However, she could see nothing except the outline of the figure."That's the one I'm waiting for!" Ning Qingshan nearly cried out with surprise. She raised her head, touched her swollen feet, and said in a hoarse voice, "I want Ning Xueyan to die!""You? Just with what?" The person in the dark sneered with unconcealed sarcasm. Ning Qingshan seemed to have sensed that
The Devious First-Daughter Chapter 457 Your Grandfather's Thing
"If you have anything from your grandfather, you exchange it with me." But this time, after saying that, the man in black suddenly stood up as if he had felt something. He listened carefully and then decisively pushed open the window. His figure flashed away, leaving only his voice in the air.The wind blew in through the window, and it was cold."Miss, are you alright?" Another black shadow flashed into the room in a panic. Before she arrived, her voice came through. It was Xinmei."I'm fine!" Ning Xueyan had already calmed down and waved to Xinmei, who appeared by the window.Xinmei breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Ning Xueyan was fine and closed the window for her. Then she stopped at the window and listened carefully before wiping her sweat and coming over. Just now, when she saw a black shadow coming to Ning Xueyan's place, she was so scared that she almost lost her wits. She almost couldn't control herself from rus
The Devious First-Daughter Chapter 458 The "Deep Affection" Between Ning Ziyan and Ning Yuling
Ning Ziyan and Ning Yuling went up the mountain together. They arrived at the mountain and paid homage to Madam Ming when they heard that Prince Yi had left with his favorite concubine. As Ning Ziyan stood on the high hall and watched Prince Yi's magnificent carriage disappear, a trace of coldness flashed through her eyes. She turned to Ning Yuling and said gently, "Yuling, let's go to see grandmother together now. Then we have to see Third Sister and Fifth Sister later.""I'll listen to you, my eldest sister," Ning Yuling said quietly. Anyone who knew Ning Yuling would never believe that this obedient person was the Second Young Lady of Lord Protector's Manor who used to be arrogant and domineering.Ming Yuanhua, who was standing on the other side of the hall, quietly glanced at the pair of girls with cold eyes. He didn't like the people from Lord Protector's Manor, especially these two well-matched sisters. They were both vicious, but they pretended to be
The Devious First-Daughter Chapter 459 The Teacup Was Broken
Ning Xueyan knelt in front of the figure of the Buddha, worshipping in silence with her eyes closed. Her long and thick eyelashes left shadows on her tender face. In front of the sacrificial table, there were some ornaments that belonged to Madam Ming, as well as some bowls and cups, plates of fruit and a big censer.The sounds of chanting, accompanied by the rhythmical drumming on the wooden fish, was soothing and calmed one down. It felt quiet and distant in this smoke-filled room.Ning Ziyan knelt with Ning Xueyan for a long time. At this time, she whispered with a smile on her face, "Xueyan, have a rest. You are still so weak. If you keep doing this, you will pass out and I am sure Mother will be heartbroken."Ning Zu'an's Legal Wife was Madam Ming, so she was the mother of all his children.Ning Xueyan nodded. Holding Xinmei's hand, she stood up and rested in the side hall. Ning Xueyan took a sip of the tea that a young monk h
The Devious First-Daughter Chapter 460 The Medicinal Powder on the Bowl
"Can't you get the teapots from the big kitchen?" Ning Xueyan frowned as she persisted in questioning him."The bowls in the big kitchen are different and getting bowls from there is not very convenient. Although the color of the teacups taken from the small kitchens is different, it does not mean that their quality are no better than the ones in the big kitchen. Moreover, some guests will perform rites here, so the teacups you use are even better and they are cleaned frequently. Benefactor, it is perfectly safe for you to use them."The young monk explained in a quick-witted manner."Are there a lot of bowls here?" Ning Xueyan asked curiously."No, not too many, but there are still dozens of them. That is why we clean them very carefully so they are even cleaner than those in the big kitchen." The young monk replied. Moreover, he also felt that this girl was very kind. He was still a child so it was natural for him to tell her eve
The Devious First-Daughter Chapter 461 Trouble the Novice Monks
After walking for a while at the back of the mountain, Ning Xueyan returned to her courtyard with the excuse of feeling uncomfortable. When she just sat down and took a few sips of tea, Xinmei came back. She had instructed Xinmei to keep an eye on Ning Ziyan. Now that she had come back, Ning Ziyan must have gone back as well, so it was reasonable for Xinmei to come back at this time."Young Lady, I saw that the maid serving the Eldest Young Lady talked to the man for a while and then the man went round to your front. After waiting a while, I heard the man mention a portrait. It seems that a portrait of yours has fallen into the man's hands."Portrait? Ning Xueyan's face changed slightly. The so-called portrait reminded her of the several portraits with which she was set up in the last life. These portraits, which were similar to the portraits that disgraced Ning Yuling later, were the evidence of her affair. Madam Ling and Ning Ziyan killed her with these p
The Devious First-Daughter Chapter 462 The News Ning Qingshan Got
"Young Lady, I heard Mother Han stop two novice monks there just now. She said that she wanted to meet the man for whom they delivered the food in an aggressive manner. It was obvious that she was really angry. I didn't hear their conversation clearly in a distance. The incident seemed to be caused by the fact that the man stared fixedly at the Fifth Young Lady, and the Eldest Young Lady was also there at that time."Mammy Luo went straight to the point. Seeing Mother Han stop the two novice monks and talk to them, she hid herself subconsciously. She had forced the Fifth Young Lady into the room before, so she dared not meet anyone in the Fifth Young Lady's courtyard at this moment. Moreover, Mother Han was extremely protective towards the Fifth Young Lady, so Mother Han would probably beat her up at the sight of her.After kneeling and being beaten up for punishment, she was definitely weaker than Mother Han. She was reluctant to be beaten up by Mother Han
