Hearing that Shen Ninghua wanted to explain, Lady Zhang's phoenix-like eyes pricked up as she looked arrogantly at Shen Ninghua. With disdain, she said, "A woman's most important point is to be gentle and frugal. You sure have a sharp tongue."
Shen Ninghua did not fear her gaze in the slightest. Her gaze was as clear as water, "What Aunt said is reasonable. A woman's gentleness is naturally good. "After being splashed with a basin of dirty water on her head and having her limbs chopped off, no matter how good-natured she is, she is still unwilling to be wronged."
Madam Zhang said sternly: "Ling Han heard from your own ears that you threatened Ying'er to let her finger rot, and you still dare to say that you are innocent?"
"Did sister hear it with her own ears?" Shen Ninghua looked at Shen Ling Han in surprise, "I only met my cousin once at the banquet last time. There were so many ladies present, and my sister was talking to them by the side. Can you hear me?" Opening her eyes and seeing the situation, when she was talking to Zhao Ruyun, her voice was very soft, so it was impossible for Shen Linghan to hear it.
Avoiding Shen Ninghua's question, she frowned and said, "Elder sister, I thought you were just speaking out of anger, but I didn't expect you to really poison my cousin. We are both sisters, your actions are too vicious."
"Sister, you really know what's right and wrong." At that time, Zhao Ruyun had ridiculed her for not having the Shen family's bloodline, but she hadn't spoken a word. Now, she had come to fight for justice.
Shen Ling Han rolled her eyes, with a heartbroken expression, she said, "You're my blood sister, if you didn't go too far, how would I reveal you?"
Shen Ninghua looked up. It was none of his business if Mistress Xiao was sitting with her head lowered and drinking tea. Shen Dong and Madam Ye had gloomy and impatient expressions on their faces. None of these people wanted her to live a peaceful life. Even the Xiao family that was using her to make up for her troubles was standing high up in the sky.
"Why is mother's place so lively today? I ask for your forgiveness for being late. " The Su Family's apricot-colored skirt was embroidered with green peonies. They walked in with jingling steps and were even more extravagant than the Zhang family. "The Duke of Wei's wife is here as well. Greetings."
Zhang Shi's face froze, the smile on her lips became much stiffer, "Why are you so polite, come sit."
Su Shi raised her eyes and smiled at her. "What are you sitting for? I'm here to deliver a gift for Ning Hua." "Someone, hurry up and bring it up."
Although the Zhang Clan was the wife of a duke, they were far inferior to the Su Clan. The original target of the Su Clan's discussion was the Duke of Wei, Zhao Kun. He just knew why the Su family suddenly broke off their engagement. Not long after, the Zhang family and Zhao Kun got married and became the Duke's wife. And because their reputation had been tarnished after annulling the marriage, the Su Clan was able to marry Shen Liang, whose position was not very prominent. However, from the looks of it now, the matter of annulling the engagement back then was not ordinary. Maybe the Zhang Clan still had something up their sleeves that fell into the hands of the Su Clan.
Shen Ninghua's pupils contracted slightly. When she saw the maidservants carrying two large boxes over, she raised her head in shock and said, "Aunt, these things …"
The smile of the Su Clan was brilliant, as though she did not notice the tense atmosphere in the hall earlier, "You deserve all of this. If it were not for you opening your mouth to remind her yesterday, how would Lady Shao realize that she is pregnant? She also said that if she wasn't physically heavy, she would definitely personally come to thank you. "Right now, I can only run errands for her. Quickly take a look, the present is unsatisfactory. If you are unsatisfied, I will definitely get something even better for you."
When the maidservants opened the box, everyone in the room was stunned. The box on the left was a bit larger. There were all sorts of colorful brocade and silk, and two boxes on top of them. There were all sorts of clothes and accessories, but there weren't many things, so a bunch of brocade and silk was worth at least a hundred gold. The smaller box on the right was even more shocking. As soon as he opened it, he saw waves of pearl like precious energy flowing out. The pearl hairpin, the ring in each step … The different colored gems were so dazzling that it was as if they could make anyone's eyes fall on them.
Mrs Zhao's face suddenly froze. These items were equivalent to two years' salary for Shen Dong.
Seeing the stunned expressions of the crowd, as if it was not enough, the Su family ordered people to take away the tray of jewelry. A burst of gold light shot out, and on the floor of the tray, a golden spindle was placed neatly. Looking at the height of the box, the silver was more than a thousand liang.
Shen Ninghua was stunned for a moment. She looked at the Su Clan with astonishment, only to see that she was winking at her. Her heart immediately felt a lot warmer. At least this Second Aunt was really helping him right now. If she didn't attack him in the future, she would try her best to protect him.
"This was given to her by Lady Shao?" Shen Dong knew that the Su Clan and the Shao Clan were close friends, so he was not too surprised when he saw the Su Clan sending gifts. He had heard about yesterday's matter, but he never expected that the Shao Clan would prepare such a thick gift for Shen Ninghua.
"Big brother, how could I lie to you about this?" Yesterday, it was all thanks to Ning Hua. Speaking of which, this child Ning Hua was kind-hearted and could bully anyone. " The Su Family signaled for the servant girl to cover the box before speaking, obviously hinting that Shen Xuanlin had offended his elder sister.
These words became much more ear-piercing to the ears of the group of people from the Zhang Clan. After all, they were here to denounce Shen Ninghua, so why did it become a form of bullying in the mouth of the Su Clan?
Mrs Zhao withdrew her gaze from those gifts and said to the Su Family, "It's great that Little Sister-in-law is here. I was just talking about the matter of Xing'er. Ning Hua, Mother believes that you did it unintentionally, so now you should also be no longer angry. As long as you take out the antidote, Mother will plead for you. "
Su Shi raised her brows and looked at Mrs Zhao. "What did Eldest Sis say? "What is it for today?"
Mrs Zhao nearly choked on the question she was asked. What did this mean that another person had framed Shen Ninghua? This time, it was clearly Shen Ninghua who was in the wrong. She looked at Zhang Shi, hoping that she would be able to speak. However, the arrogant Zhang Shi was now like a gourd that had its mouth cut open, not saying a single word. He could only explain himself:
"Sister-in-law, you misunderstood this time." Look at Ying's fingers. The fingers of his right hand are rotten. "The empress is going to summon her to the palace in a few days. You know that the empress likes to hear her play the zither the most. If she points out the problem, what should we do after the empress finds out?"
"Eldest sister-in-law, you've said so much, but I still don't understand. He had injured his finger and went to find a doctor. What was the use of coming to find Ning Hua? Furthermore, you asked Ning Hua to hand over the antidote, which piqued my curiosity even more. A young miss from the pavilion, where did the poison come from? " Su Shi took a sip of tea and said with a frown.
If she said these words, the crowd would definitely think she was being sly. If the Su Clan spoke out, then the meaning would be different. Today, no matter what, she had to thank this aunt of hers. As the cyan sparrow was in the midst of thinking, it lightly tugged at the corner of her clothes. Shen Ninghua's eyes twitched as the smile on his face deepened. The good show was finally about to begin. Taking a small step forward, he said:
"I'm also curious. Cousin's hand is so heavily injured, but she didn't find a doctor for her to see first. Coincidentally, I had Hong Ling invite Doctor Zhang over so I could have a good look."
Zhao Ruyun, who had been interrupted by the Su Family and was unable to vent her anger, was once again provoked, "Do you think I didn't see it? Shen Ninghua, if you don't give me an explanation today, I won't let you off! "
Shen Ninghua ignored him, instead looking towards the door.
Zhang Nian had just entered the door when he heard Zhao Ruyun's clamor and his face immediately turned ugly. He was a strict person and hated the young miss of an unruly family.
"Greetings, madame."
"Doctor Zhang, excuse me. I'll be troubling you today." Xiao Shi put down her teacup and slowly said.
Zhao Ruyun's face was filled with arrogance. "He's better than the imperial physician? "It's really funny." Did he really think that just because he was recommended by Chen Shuang, he could fawn over him? He was overestimating himself!
Zhang Nian Bing's expression remained unchanged as he sized up Zhao Ruyun. "Miss Zhao is looking for an imperial physician. As a wild man in the martial arts world, I naturally can't compare to him. May I know which imperial physician you are looking for?"
Zhao Ruyun became more and more disdainful. "Of course, it's the Imperial Physician Hu, who's part of the Imperial Physician Hu."
Zhang Nian Bing looked at her expressionlessly. "Hu Wei, that little rascal, is rushing to acknowledge me as his teacher and got kicked out by me. The person you are looking for is quite powerful."
Zhao Ruyun's face turned red, "You are speaking nonsense, how could Imperial Physician Hu possibly acknowledge you as his Master?"
Mrs Su opened her mouth in amusement: "Miss Biao, Doctor Zhang's medical skills are praised by Principal Chen. Many times, when nobles in the palace feel unwell, Principal Chen himself is uncertain and still needs to consult with Doctor Zhang." Hurry up and take it out so that you can find a doctor for you to take a look at.
Zhao Ruyun was so angry that her face turned red. She didn't want Zhang Nian to see, but she was worried that her injuries would worsen. As long as she pulled up her sleeves and handed her fingers over, she would definitely grind Shen Ninghua's bones and scatter his ashes. It was all because of that slut, Shen Ninghua. If her fingers couldn't heal, she would definitely chop off Shen Ninghua's hand!
"It's nothing much. I'll go back and wash the ointment off my hands, then use the green ash with the rosin to clean it …"
"A quack doctor." Hearing this recipe, Zhao Ruyun was even more sure that this Zhang Nian Xu had a name.
Mrs Zhang frowned and looked at Zhao Ruyun, not allowing her to speak again, "Doctor Zhang, what poison did you get from the wound on my hand?"
Zhang Nian's voice became colder and colder, "Poison? How could there be so much poison to plant? It's just that I've moved something that I haven't changed. "
Hearing Zhang Nian's casual tone, how could Zhao Ruyun hold back her anger? "You are clearly a quack doctor! Shen Ninghua, you really have a good method. You actually colluded with this quack doctor to deceive me. How ridiculous. Uncle, how are you going to punish Shen Ninghua today? "If you punish her, then I'll immediately go to the palace to meet the esteemed empress. I won't believe that we can't punish her for this."
When had Shen Dong ever been threatened by a young girl? His face turned ugly, thinking back to how Empress Zhao had to endure this humiliation. "Didn't Doctor Zhang say earlier that you weren't poisoned?" "Then, Dr. Zhang, may I ask, what did Ying'er touch?"
Zhang Nian Bing laughed coldly. "Seeing how irritable Miss Zhao is, you must have caught a Poinsettia when you were angry."
Shen Ling Han suddenly raised her head: "Poinsettia?" That day, when Zhao Ruyun was angry, she indeed grabbed onto the Poinsettia in her room. At that time, her heart ached for a long time, could it be because of this?
Zhao Ruyun was also stunned, "You mean a Poinsettia?"
"That's right. Your hand doesn't have this kind of look in it. It's probably a bit swollen. Wash it properly with water. After a while, it will be fine. "Who knows which wise imperial physician you found to prescribe the medicine? How could it still be good if something that isn't right was given to you?"
"This... "That's impossible. How many benefits did you receive from Shen Ninghua?" Zhao Ruyun questioned with a stern voice.
"Incomprehensible!" Zhang Nian did not have a good temper to begin with, so when she heard that Zhao Ruyun was pestering her, she directly slammed the door and left.
Shen Ninghua looked at Zhao Ruyun and sighed, "Cousin, Doctor Zhang was recommended by the Chen Yuan himself. I've seen him twice, but I don't have the ability to bribe a medical expert like him."
Zhao Ruyun bit her lips as she looked at Zhang Shi with tears in her eyes, "Mother …"
Mrs Zhang quickly embraced her. She naturally knew what Zhang Nian said was true, but she had already caused such a ruckus. If she were to just let it go like this, she wouldn't be willing to give up. For a moment, the hall was silent.
Shen Ninghua stood to the side with her head slightly bowed. Shen Dong looked over and only saw her black brows and clear eyes that were like mountains and rivers, bringing with them an everlasting and everlasting aura.
"This matter was a misunderstanding. Since it has been revealed, everything will be fine. Xiao Hua, you must be tired too.
She didn't expect that Shen Dong would actually say something to help Shen Ninghua. Mrs Zhao's eyes instantly became sharp.
