"Go and pay tribute to your mother."

An Ning stood up and took Yue Niang out.

When she walked to the door, she turned around and told the little girls: "Remember to close the window and move the parrots under the corridor into the house. If I don't come back in the evening, remember to water the flowers in the yard."

Several little girls who had just left their heads agreed in unison.

An Ning came out of the small courtyard where she lived, and not far away, she walked past a semicircular arch and arrived at Mrs. Luo's residence.

Mrs. Luo’s yard is not very big. There are three main rooms, one ear room at each east and west, and several wing rooms. There are no trees planted in the yard, only some flowers and plants planted. A row of flower pots are planted under the corridor, and the flower pots are planted with grass smoked mosquitoes.

"The second girl is here."

Mrs. Luo's eldest maid Sixi saw An Ning coming and quickly put on a curtain: "Mrs. I just worshiped the Buddha and was about to call the slave to call the girl over."

"Didn't my mother take a nap today?"

An Ning asked softly.

Mrs. Luo had already heard her voice in the room and said with a smile: "I sniffed for a while, but I couldn't sleep later. So I went to the Buddhist temple for a while. My son, why are you here now? It's hard for you to walk under the sun."

Mrs. Luo gave birth to two girls, and she was very fond of them. Now the eldest girl has been married for two or three years and has not returned to her parents' home. She only has peace left, so she is naturally even more pampered.

"Well, Mother."

An Ning went into the house to invite An, and sat down next to Mrs. Luo: "I slept very sweetly this time. Now I wake up and feel refreshed, but now I'm a little hungry."

Mrs. Luo lit An Ning's forehead: "You fell asleep without even eating lunch, and you are naturally hungry now."

Si Xi smiled and walked forward: "I went to the kitchen and asked someone to make something."

An Ning waved her hand: "Stop working. If you are worried, I will take it over and I will make up for it first. It will be dinner again later. There is no need to make the kitchen people uneasy."

"The girl is very kind."

Sixi turned around and went out, and in a short while he brought a plate of snacks.

There are four kinds of snacks on the plate. The saucer is not big at all, and the snacks are even smaller. They all look like flowers and look very beautiful.

An Ning picked up a piece of osmanthus crispy and took a bite: "Today's snack is delicious."

Sixi stood aside and smiled: "It's not that the snacks are delicious, it's that the girl is so hungry."

"Maybe it is."

An Ning nodded and took another small fried dumpling and ate it.

Sixi put a small bowl of rose braised rice on An Ning's hand, and she picked it up and took a sip: "Sister Sixi is the most considerate."

Waiting for An Ning to finish eating a plate of snacks, she drank almost the same rose braised rice. Mrs. Luo smiled and said, "I just received a letter from your sister, saying that your brother-in-law will be promoted to Dingcheng Prefecture. She also said that when your brother-in-law takes office, she will come back to live for a few days. She also asked you how you have been recently, how tall you have grown, but you are still sensible and obedient?"

An Ning wiped her mouth with a veil: "I miss my sister too. I hope my sister can come back to live for a while this time. However, after many years of my sister's stay, I can't remember what she looks like. What if I don't recognize her sister?"

"Too."

Thinking of the eldest daughter, Mrs. Luo also sighed: "Your sister was still young when she got married, and you didn't go back to her parents' home several times after she got married. It's normal for you to remember. Even me, sometimes I can't remember exactly what your sister looks like, but after all, that's your sister. When she comes back, we will definitely recognize her at a glance."

An Ningyi asked softly beside Mrs. Luo: "Mother, tell me about my sister again. How old was my sister when she got married? Several years have passed. She should have grown up again, right?"

Mrs. Luo thought carefully: "Your sister was sixteen when she got married. You were still young at that time. You have grown so old in a flash."

An Ning raised her eyebrows: "I remember that Du Juan, who served her mother earlier, married at the age of sixteen or seventeen. Du Juan, also works as a housekeeper in our family when she got married. I often see her, but if I haven't seen Du Juan's face for a month or two, I can't recognize her. She has been married for several years. I saw her before, but it's a big difference than before. I think my sister has changed a lot."

Speaking of this, An Ning burst out laughing: "Mother, if someone comes back as a sister, can you recognize him? If this person is someone who is familiar with his sister, such as Chunniang, if she dresses up as a sister, we may not recognize him."

Mrs. Luo was shocked when An Ning said this: "My son, why do you think of this?"

An Ning lowered her head: "I just started to sleep hard when I was taking a nap today. I always felt that something was going to happen in our family. Later, I heard my sister calling me. She seemed to be in pain and said to ask me to be careful. Mother, I really don't know what to be careful about. When I was thinking about asking, I suddenly fell asleep."

This is a bit ominous.

Mrs. Luo looked frightened: "Your sister married and is so far away, we can't take care of her. We don't know if something happens. However, when your sister got married, she brought several servants, and their contracts for selling her body are in your sister's hands..."

An Ning said, "But Chunniang knows everything about sister. If Chunniang betrays her, her sister will be in danger."

Mrs. Luo's face looked even more ugly.

She thought for a while and shouted to the outside: "Wufu, go get my post and meet Captain Geng at Yangcheng Yamen. She said that he would come to our house when he is free. I have something to ask him to help."

Wufu agreed outside and quickly left with the post.

An Ning leaned on Mrs. Luo's shoulder: "Does your mother and Captain Geng recognize it?"

Mrs. Luo smiled and nodded her nose: "Of course I recognize that I also lived in Yangcheng when I was a girl. Once I went out to burn incense and happened to meet Captain Geng's mother lying on the side of the road. It seemed that she was going to give birth, so I asked someone to carry her to the car and sent her to the hospital shop, and gave birth to Captain Geng's younger brother. Since then, Captain Geng's mother often sent some fresh vegetables to your grandfather's house, saying that she thanked me for saving the lives of her mother and son. After a while, she started to come and go. Later, Captain Geng entered the yamen and asked someone to frame her. It was your grandfather who helped him survive. Later, he found out the injustice and avenged him. It was at that time that he became Captain Yangcheng's mansion."

An Ning listened very seriously: "I often hear that Captain Geng is very good at handling cases. He said that he handles cases like a god. There is no case that he cannot solve. It is said that Captain Geng is also good at martial arts."

Mrs. Luo touched An Ning's head and smiled: "I know some kung fu. He learned from people when he was young. I seem to have heard that his master is Mr. Ou from the Six Gates of the Capital."

"ah."

An Ning screamed in shock: "Is it Mr. Ou? I was listening to a book in the teahouse earlier. Wang Tiezui told Mr. Ou several times. I was thinking about what kind of person Mr. Ou was. I didn't expect that Captain Geng was his disciple. Mother. If Captain Geng came, you must let me meet him. I want to ask him about Mr. Ou."
