The reborn daughter of the Marquis Mansion takes over the world

Chapter 213 Because it’s you, I’m easy to coax

After eating on the table for about half an hour, Ning Ziqing put down the bowls and chopsticks first and couldn't wait to go to the courtyard to play with lanterns.

But Lord Ning was still toasting and drinking with Ning Zijun and Su Yanqi.

After a while, the old lady also put down her chopsticks and waited quietly.

When everyone had almost finished eating, the three of them put down their wine glasses.

Immediately, the servants brought tea for several people to rinse their mouths.

Although Ninghou Mansion did not organize any grand arrangements for the Mid-Autumn Festival this year and invited relatives and friends.

But tonight, Ning Ziqing specially asked the chef from Sifanglou to prepare this table tonight. The dishes on the table are both exquisite and rich, and are of a very high standard.

The old lady was full of praise for this and was very satisfied.

After chatting for a while, Xie’s mother helped the old lady leave the table and led a few people to the courtyard to admire the moon.

Walking all the way, I saw various styles of lanterns lit on the ground and in various corridors. The colorful lights flashed in all kinds of colors, which was really beautiful.

When they arrived at the courtyard, Lord Ning and Mrs. Song sat aside to rest with the old lady.

The old lady smiled and waved to the juniors: "You can just play by yourself, we will not participate."

Ning Ziqing and the other two hurriedly saluted and thanked them, said some blessings, and then walked together to the table under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, ready to start worshiping the moon.

The four people devoutly burned incense to worship the moon god, then lit a lotus lantern and hung it high on the osmanthus tree.

Seeing this, Ning Zijun motioned to the maids and servants to gather together and have fun together.

Everyone began to share moon cakes, guess lantern riddles, play with lanterns, and drink osmanthus wine, which was very lively.

Laughter and laughter continued, and the huge courtyard was rarely filled with such a harmonious atmosphere.

Ning Ziqing secretly drank two glasses of osmanthus wine while Su Yanqi and Ning Zijun didn't notice her.

When Su Yanqi took out an exquisitely crafted rabbit lantern and handed it to Ning Ziqing, he smelled the smell of alcohol on her body.

Su Yanqi frowned slightly and said seriously to Ning Ziqing: "It's a holiday today, so I'll let you go this time. I won't do it next time!"

Being caught on the spot, Ning Ziqing laughed sheepishly, quickly took the rabbit lantern from Su Yanqi's hand, lifted up her skirt and ran to play with Yaoyao and the others.

Su Yanqi stood under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, with the corner of his mouth slightly raised, staring at Ning Ziqing's figure, his eyes shining brightly.

At this moment, Ning Zilan came over.

"Shichiro-kun, did you only prepare lanterns for your sister?"

Su Yanqi looked away and saw her staring at him with an aggrieved face.

Su Yanqi narrowed his eyes, his face darkened slightly, and his tone was full of politeness and alienation:

"I'm sorry, Miss Fourth, my hand was injured a few days ago, and I just wanted to make a lantern for Third Sister. There are many beautiful lanterns bought over there. You might as well choose the one you like." After that, he He walked towards Ning Zijun.

Ning Zilan was unwilling to give in, bit her lip and chased after him.

"Shichiro-kun, wait for me, I have something to tell you."

Su Yanqi didn't even look back, with a cold attitude: "Fourth Miss, please stay away from me, otherwise I'm afraid I will be stunned by some fragrance again!"

Ning Zilan froze in shame, remembering the time she drugged Su Yanqi, but he found out and was humiliated.

Now he brought up the old things again and cut her off again.

Ning Zilan's nose felt sour and tears could not be controlled.

She hurriedly wiped it off with an embroidered handkerchief, blinked hard, and turned away pretending to be nonchalant.

After making trouble for most of the night, the old lady finally couldn't bear it and wanted to go back to the house to rest.

Marquis Ning and his daughter Song lost interest and left the courtyard with the old lady.

After they left, Ning Ziqing, Yinxiang and the other maids were still playing hide and seek with great interest.

Seeing that it was getting late, Ning Zijun walked over and pulled open the cloth covering Ning Ziqing's eyes. Seeing her sweating profusely, he couldn't help but urge: "Qingqing, it's getting late, you should go back to bed."

Ning Ziqing pouted and begged: "I haven't had enough fun yet. You and Qilangjun haven't left yet. Let me play for a while longer."

"Qingqing, you just drank secretly and are now sweating. It's windy at night. Be careful to catch a cold. Go back to Xiyuan quickly." Su Yanqi came over and persuaded, winking at Yaoyao on the side.

Yaoyao reluctantly dragged Ning Ziqing up and left: "Little ancestor, be obedient. For my sake, let's go back."

Ning Ziqing shouted angrily: "You guys are all in the same boat, you just know how to bully me...!"

Ning Zijun and the other two couldn't help but snicker and watched her leave.

Back in Xiyuan, Yinxiang helped Ning Ziqing bathe and change clothes, and then sent her into the back room to prepare for bed.

The two of them walked in one after another. When Yinxiang was about to light the lamp, he suddenly found a figure standing beside the bed.

Yinxiang was so frightened that she was about to scream when the man hurriedly said: "Don't be afraid, it's me!"

Ning Ziqing recognized Huo Yunjue and asked in surprise: "Your Highness, why are you here?"

Huo Yunjue didn't answer, but came over excitedly and hugged Ning Ziqing tightly.

Upon seeing this, Yinxiang quickly exited and closed the door, then ran to tell Yaoyao and told her to guard the entrance of the garden in case Ning Zijun and the others came and noticed Huo Yunjue's presence.

The two of them hugged each other for a long time in the room, and Ning Ziqing felt strange about Huo Yunjue's abnormal behavior.

"Ah Jue, what's wrong with you today?" Ning Ziqing felt a little worried when she smelled a strong smell of alcohol on his body. He was obviously drunk.

Huo Yunjue let go of Ning Ziqing, regained his composure and smiled, "I just missed you so much, so I came here."

Ning Ziqing's heart exploded instantly. She raised her eyes and stared at the face in front of her that made her think about it day and night.

Under Huo Yunjue's two ink-stained sword eyebrows, there was a pair of extremely beautiful eyes.

At this moment, he was staring at Ning Ziqing lovingly, his eyes filled with a charming color, as bright and moving as the stars in the night sky.

Ning Ziqing's heart trembled, she raised her hand to brush Huo Yunjue's eyebrows, and murmured lovingly: "Ah Jue, you seem to have lost weight and become darker."

Huo Yunjue saw the distress on her face.

He held Ning Ziqing's hand, pulled her to the table and sat down, took out a fire stick and lit a lantern.

It was an exquisite lantern in the shape of a fox. Every detail was made vividly. Its eyes were crystal clear, its ears were long and thin, and its furry tail was slightly rolled up.

People can't help but have the illusion that this fox is really alive and can jump out of the lantern at any time to get close to people.

Ning Ziqing took a closer look and couldn't put it down and asked him: "Did you make it for me?"

Huo Yunjue nodded: "Do you like it?"

"I like it." Ning Ziqing happily picked it up and played with it.

Huo Yunjue successively took out a few sprigs of golden osmanthus and a bag of cakes, placed them in front of Ning Ziqing and said:

"The golden osmanthus in the Royal Garden is blooming very beautifully this year. I think you will like it. After the family banquet, I went to break some branches and brought them to you."

"This is the sweet-scented osmanthus chestnut cake made by my mother-in-law and some pastries made in the imperial kitchen. Please try it quickly to see if it tastes good."

With that said, Huo Yunjue picked up a piece of chestnut cake and fed it to Ning Ziqing.

Ning Ziqing took a small bite, chewed it twice, and praised happily: "It's so sweet, it's even more delicious than the mooncake I ate tonight."

Huo Yunjue smiled slightly: "Is it really so delicious? These are just ordinary pastries."

Ning Ziqing complained to him while eating pastries: "You don't even know that my brother and the others have been very bad to me recently."

Huo Yunjue frowned in confusion: "Why are they treating you badly?"

"Shichiro-kun said that I need to take good care of my health, so I was not allowed to eat sweets and cakes, which made me lose my appetite and taste nothing in my mouth. They even gave me bland mooncakes during the festival tonight. They are really going too far! "

The more Ning Ziqing thought about it, the angrier she became, so she simply stuffed all the cakes Huo Yunjue brought into her mouth.

"Eat slowly, don't choke." Huo Yunjue looked at her devouring her food, her cheeks bulging out as cutely as a squirrel, and the haze in her heart suddenly disappeared.

Ning Ziqing finished the cake, took the water Huo Yunjue poured for her and drank it in one gulp, then smacked her lips with satisfaction.

"Ah Jue, you'd better be nice to me!"

She threw herself into Huo Yunjue's arms with a smile.

Huo Yunjue hugged her, wiped the residue from the corner of her mouth, and said with a smile: "You are so happy with just a little food, you must be too coaxing!"

Ning Ziqing in her arms whispered: "Because it's you, I can coax you easily!"

Huo Yunjue paused for a moment, then laughed out loud.

Recalling what she just said, I quickly asked her: "What's wrong with your body? How about I find an imperial doctor to check it out for you."

Ning Ziqing shook his head and refused: "Jiang Quhan and Qi Langjun have shown it to me. It's not a big problem. It will heal after a while. Don't worry."

Huo Yunjue thought about it and realized that Jiang Quhan's medical skills were so good that Ning Ziqing would be well soon.
