Chapter 206 You Are the Unlucky Person
Shen Ningning was a little surprised.
Although winter is approaching, it’s only November, so why is it snowing?
But when she stretched out her little hand to catch the rain and looked for snowflakes, she found that she couldn't find them, as if what she had just seen was just an illusion.
This sudden heavy rain in late autumn was like water pouring down from the sky, and it kept falling.
By evening, the sky had turned dark, like late night.
Except for Shen Ningning, everyone was extremely happy about the heavy rain.
Maybe I have been suffering from drought for a long time, so whenever I see rain, I think it is a good thing.
But Shen Ningning felt that it was getting colder and colder. The little guy was wearing a green pomegranate skirt today, which made him feel very cold.
As soon as she walked out of the Huangzi class, she saw a familiar figure walking over holding an umbrella.
"Godfather~" The little guy was so happy that he rushed towards Xie Suzhi regardless of the heavy rain.
Xie Suzhi's expression changed: "Ningning, don't get wet in the rain."
However, he said it too late. When the little guy threw himself into his arms, his hair was already wet with rain and stuck to his white cheeks with moisture.
Shen Ningning showed her face and smiled sweetly: "It's okay, godfather, it's just that your hair is wet, just wipe it off."
Xie Suzhi touched the little guy's hand, which was ice cold.
He immediately turned around, and his entourage immediately handed over the cloak, and he wrapped Shen Ningning tightly like a baby.
"The weather has turned cold suddenly. You may be freezing. My godfather will carry you away." After Xie Suzhi said that, he stuffed a small gilt heater into the little guy's arms.
Soon, warmth surrounded the little person, making her face turn red, like a cloud.
What's more, he has a pair of dark, round almond eyes, which are bright and agile.
Shen Ningning was carried away by Xie Suzhi, and two attendants behind them held broad umbrellas above the heads of the father and daughter.
"Daddy, I saw it's snowing today. Are you cold?" the little guy said, stretching out his warm hands to cover both sides of Xie Suzhi's cheeks.
Xie Suzhi smiled loudly: "I'm not cold, just don't freeze your little hands."
"But, could Ning Ning be wrong? It's too early for it to snow now."
The summer in Cangyun Kingdom is long and the winter is short.
In previous years, even if it snowed, it would start in the twelfth lunar month.
What's more, droughts have been severe in recent years, and the winter snow will fall even later.
Shen Ningning shook her head and said firmly: "I really saw it. The snowflakes were in the rain and fell on the fingers, which were ice cold."
Xie Suzhi pursed his lips and smiled softly: "That means winter has come early. Godfather will ask you to make more sets of skirts and coats for you."
The father and daughter had just returned to Xie's Mansion. As soon as they entered the gate, they saw Xie Yuanjiu standing soaked at the corner of the corridor.
She seemed to be extremely cold, her lips were turned white from the cold, and her eyes stared at Shen Ningning gloomily and coldly.
The wet hair was messy and scattered on the shoulders and stuck to the face, making the whole person look eerie.
Not only was the little guy stunned, but Xie Suzhi also frowned slightly, showing a confused look.
Xie Yuanjiu, what happened?
Before Xie Suzhi could speak, Xie Yuanjiu turned and left.
Shen Ningning tilted her head, her big eyes filled with confusion, and Nuo Nuo asked, "Godfather, is the fourth sister swollen?"
Xie Suzhi's eyes darkened, and then he smiled gently at the little guy and said, "Don't worry Ning Ning, she probably encountered something unhappy. She will be fine in a while."
When Xie Suzhi sent Shen Ningning back to the courtyard, he asked Late Spring and Late Spring to prepare hot water and ginger soup for her.
After that, he returned to the study and called Xie Yuanjiu's maid to ask what happened when he entered the palace today.
The maid sighed: "Sir, the young lady was wronged in the palace today."
After some detailed explanation, Xie Suzhi knew what was going on.
It turned out that Xie Yuanjiu was helping Concubine Rong to post scriptures, but unexpectedly the weather suddenly changed and it started to rain heavily.
She and the palace officials rescued the scriptures together, but after they were all moved into the palace, they were still wet.
The Buddhist scriptures that Concubine Rong had carefully copied throughout the year were all damaged by water, and the ink-colored handwriting turned into a mass of shadows.
It is said that Concubine Rong fainted from sadness at that time.
The eldest aunt next to her immediately scolded Xie Yuanjiu, saying that she was watching outside and had not noticed the change in the sky.
The heavy rain wetted not only the Buddhist scriptures, but also Concubine Rong's sincerity in praying for the Cangyun Kingdom.
This is not a good sign.
So, Xie Yuanjiu went home crying.
After understanding clearly, Xie Suzhi's dark brows were heavy and his eyes were dark.
After a moment, he said to the maid: "Go and invite the second master. I have something to tell him."
In the second room, Xie Yuanjiu's door was closed tightly, and sad cries kept coming from inside the room.
"Jiujiu, stop crying, oh, my mother's heart will be broken when you cry." Mrs. Xie Er kept knocking on the door, trying to get in, but the door bolt inside was locked.
"Jiujiu, open the door."
Xie Yuanjiu's angry voice came along with her crying: "Mother, it's all your fault this time!"
"I had to arrange for two maids to gossip, but the eldest aunt heard it. It rained today and wet the scriptures copied by Concubine Rong. When I left the palace, I heard the maids talking, saying that I was the unlucky one in the Xie family. man of."
After she finished speaking, she felt that her future was even more bleak.
The Xie family girl, who was usually so proud, would immediately become the laughing stock of the entire capital.
How can he compare to Shen Ningning?
Outside, Mrs. Xie Er was already panicking.
She stamped her feet anxiously: "How could this happen? Mom didn't mean to harm you at all. Mom wanted them to think it was that Shen... Ouch!"
Thinking that walls have ears, and fearing that someone would overhear and report to Xie Suzhi, Mrs. Xie did not dare to continue.
But for the first time, she felt resentful towards Xie Suzhi.
If he had not brought his adopted daughter back to the mansion, there would not have been so many things later.
She could only keep slapping the door frame: "Jiujiu, just let mother in, let's find a solution together."
Xie Yuanjiu continued to cry loudly.
The hatred in her heart reached its peak at this moment.
She hated those palace people for being so disrespectful to her, and hated that the opportunity she had finally got was ruined.
Why did this heavy rain come so strangely and cleverly?
Suddenly, Xie Yuanjiu raised her head and stopped crying. There were tears in her eyes, but her eyes were extremely cold and vicious.
"It's Shen Ningning..." she murmured.
It must be her!
Since Shen Ningning is a lucky girl who can bring rain at any time, today's heavy rain must be caused by her.
Xie Yuanjiu slowly sat up and looked at the heavy rain outside the window, her expression gradually became vicious and ferocious.
Shen Ningning herself couldn't go to dry the sutras, so her chance was ruined.
She wouldn't just let it go!
"Shen Ningning, let's wait and see." Xie Yuanjiu clenched his fists.
The sudden heavy rain only lasted for one day and one night before it stopped. Since then, the weather has turned cold, but every day is sunny and good weather.
Shen Ningning went to inspect the sugar water shop and prepared to open it after the New Year.
As soon as she walked to the street, she saw two middle-aged men pulling a trailer of thick wood, shouting all the way.
"Wet wood, freshly cut, cheap price, two taels per catty, take it all away!"
Shen Ningning stopped and looked around curiously. When the two men came closer, she asked: "Uncle, I see that the annual rings of these woods are very new. It's the time when the trees are growing well. Why are they all cut?"
