Chapter 29: Encountering Danger
In the quiet classroom, several little girls sat in a row, each busy with their own embroidery work.
Ning Xianyu looked at Ning Xiayue's embroidery and smiled, "Little sister is really talented in this, if you finish embroidering this lotus flower, why not give it to me? I happen to want to make a delicate lotus pouch, but my embroidery skills are not good."
Ning Xianyue was the most fond of joking, and upon hearing this, she laughed and said: "Your embroidery is not good, yet you come to ask for mine. Aren't you ashamed? I still want to keep this one to make a purse." After finishing speaking, Ning Xian heard her say with a smile: "Fifth sister has such skills, when will she have time to do it? This one can be given to me instead."
"Alright, alright, I'll give it to you. Otherwise, I don't know how long you'll keep pestering me, and I'm getting a bit scared of you." Just then, Ning Fengluo chimed in from the side, "Sixth sister's peach blossom embroidery is also great, the stitches are very fine and dense."
Ning Xianbi heard Ning Xianluo boasting about herself and couldn't help but feel ashamed in her heart, thinking to herself that she had really tried her best, this was truly her worst level, after all, she couldn't just embroider randomly.
She didn't dare to show off her golden fingers in her previous life, so she knitted and embroidered every day, making her craftsmanship extremely good, even surpassing Ning Xianyue's in her previous life. In this life, using all her might, she only thought about wanting to embroider a little worse, to conform to the identity of a seven-year-old girl, but it was still very exquisite, and even Ning Xiannv praised her with a few words after seeing it.
Ning Xianyue suddenly felt a bit annoyed, the pride and joy of having just been asked by Ning Xiayu for embroidery had already disappeared. Seeing everyone discussing Ning Xianbi's peach blossom branch, she sat in her seat and said: "Every day, embroidering this is so annoying, can't stand such constant discussion! Let me say, what does our cousin look like? I heard that Auntie was a beauty, it's likely that this cousin's looks are not bad either."
Ning's eyebrows walked over, twisting her face and laughing: "What's wrong? Are you jealous? Afraid that grandma will dote on her and forget about you? Let me tell you, don't waste your time thinking about this. You several people's looks aren't enough to be beautiful? Even if the cousin is beautiful, what can she do? It's just a matter of each having their own strengths and weaknesses, can't surpass you?"
Ning Xian Lao smiled and said, "Second sister's words are reasonable, we don't need to look at others, just looking at second sister's appearance is enough to know, even if we're not lucky, growing up won't get us second sister's looks, but getting six or seven points would be beautiful too."
Ning Xiacao also smiled and said, "This statement is indeed correct. Second sister is elegant and beautiful, when the time comes for the imperial selection, she will definitely be chosen as a concubine. At that time, don't forget about me, I want to enter the palace with mother to see second sister, I haven't seen what the imperial palace looks like yet."
As soon as the words fell, Ning's eyebrows furrowed and she said sternly: "Can you just spout nonsense like that? Let Mother hear it, see if she won't spank you. Go and embroider flowers honestly."
Ning Xianyue smiled and said, "Sister, why must you be like this? It's just a joke, after all. We're all family, what's the point of being so arrogant and showy? Hmm, let me think... that White cousin will probably arrive in two or three days, I really want to see her soon."
She said this, and then pushed Ning Xianbi, laughing: "Sixth sister, why are you still so dumb? Originally I was expecting that after entering the clan school, you would be better than before, but it's still like this. Now your cousin is about to arrive, can't you say a few words? Are you not going to speak even when she arrives?"
What's there to say about Ning Xianbi? If possible, I'd rather not see her for the rest of my life. Since she just smiled and didn't speak, Ning Xiayue pushed her again, and she pretended to be flustered, saying "Oh no, I've been pricked by a needle." After that, she quickly put her finger in her mouth.
"How is it? Does it hurt?" After finishing, she glanced at Ning Xueyue again and shook her head: "Why are you always so reckless, Fifth Sister? If you want to talk, just talk properly. Why did you push Sixth Sister?"
Ning Xian's face was also speechless, Ning Xian Bi secretly smiled in her heart, but said: "Second sister doesn't have to blame fifth sister, it's my own carelessness." While pulling out the fingers from her mouth, naturally there was no blood on them, only a small pinprick hole that was originally very small, after sucking out that drop of blood in her mouth, it didn't bleed again, this is common sense, so everyone didn't suspect either.
As they were about to arrive at Bai Cai Zhi, Ning Feng Bi couldn't help but feel a bit depressed. On this day, she followed Old Master Ning, and the old man and young girl reported to Old Lady Jiang together. Then, bringing only two small servants, they left the house and headed out of town to pick herbs.
It's almost Dragon Boat Festival now, and the medicinal herbs on the mountain and at the foot of the mountain are very lush. Ning Fengbi quickly picked a lot.
Ning De Rong sent her back to the carriage, as he saw that there were people coming and going on the official road, and outside the carriage, there were two maids and a young servant, as well as the coachman and attendants. He was somewhat reassured, so he instructed Ning Xianbi to sit in the carriage, while he himself went up the mountain to see if there were any other rare medicinal herbs.
Ning Fengbi put down the medicine basket and placed it on the carriage shaft. She saw a few geese eating grass leisurely in the ditch by the side of the road. Looking around, she only saw that there were several villages hidden among the flowers and trees at the foot of the mountain and to the south of the road. Her heart couldn't help but yearn for it, thinking that if she could spend a lifetime in this secluded village like a paradise on earth, it would be wonderful. How hateful! Why did I have to cross over into a domestic struggle inspirational novel? Why can't I be arranged as the protagonist of a farming novel? (A solemn voice said: "Because you only know how to make medicine and don't know how to farm. You can use your imagination freely, but please play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses.")
Because they were standing by the road, only paying attention to those geese, the young servants were chatting on one side, and the girls felt that it was too hot, so they all hid in the carriage. As a result, no one noticed a large snake with flowers crawling towards Ning Feng's feet until a voice shouted "be careful" and everyone came back to their senses.
That snake has crawled onto Ning Fengbi's feet, but in fact this kind of grass snake generally doesn't bite people. If Ning Fengbi keeps staring at the white goose and doesn't feel anything unusual on her feet, the big flower snake will just crawl past.
The problem is that such a big snake crawled over her feet, and Ning Fengbi would not have felt anything unless she was dead. If she had made any movement due to fright, although the flower snake is non-venomous, it would still attack Ning Fengbi in self-defense.
Just as Ning Feng let out a scream, a dark object flashed from her feet and picked up the large snake, quickly throwing it into the ditch.
That dark shadow turned out to be a tree branch. Then a boy flipped over in mid-air and landed lightly on the ground.
Turning around, the boy looked at Ning Fengbi with a smile and said: "I just found this horse carriage familiar, thinking of coming over to take a look, didn't expect it was really you. How did you end up here?" This boy was handsome and elegant, who else could he be but Shen Qianshan?
