Chapter 3 Human or Ghost?

As soon as Ning Qingyan left, the people who were so frightened that they froze in place felt the warmth of the sun.

"She's not dead!"

"The devil can't be so rampant in broad daylight! The silly girl of the Ning family is not dead!"

"Quick, follow up and see what's going on!"

"..."

The intermittent sounds coming from behind made Ning Qingyan's mouth curl up without any trace, and she thought in her heart: 'Come on, come on, the more people there are, the more lively it will be.'

However, she felt a little regretful at this moment.

She brought such excitement to the people of Zhongdu right after she was reborn, but she didn't have the chance to collect any ticket money. It was such a loss!



After a while, Ning Qingyan returned to the door of Ning Mansion.

The Ning family was a gift from the emperor. Needless to say, the grand entrance of the gate was three feet away from the gate. There was a stone tablet erected, which read, "Dismount after seeing the tablet." What an honor this is?

Counting the countless aristocratic families in Zhongdu City, there are only a few who have such an honor.

At this moment, Ning Qingyan was standing in front of the stone tablet that said, "Dismount after seeing the monument."

Behind her, she unknowingly followed the huge crowd, and as far as the eye could see, there was no end in sight.

Ning Qingyan put one hand on the stone tablet and squinted at the ajar door three feet away. There was a white cloth hanging on the plaque, and the lantern was also a white paper lantern with the word "Dian" written on it.

Others would avoid such an unlucky scene, but Ning Qingyan had no taboos.

Do people who died thousands of years ago still fear taboos?

Ning Qingyan retracted her hand from the stone tablet and walked step by step towards the gate of the Zhenguo General's Mansion. As she walked, she recalled many things about the Ning Mansion in her mind.

The common people who had followed her also consciously stood outside the stone monument that read, "Dismount after seeing the monument," and did not follow her.



Ningfu, the central capital, is also known as the Zhenguo General's Mansion.

It's a pity that now there are only two masters left in this famous general's mansion, an old man and a young man.

As for the two masters, the old one is sick and the young one is stupid. Xiao has the final say in all affairs in the house.

The Xiao family, in Zhongdu, can only be regarded as a middle-class family. It can have a relationship with the Zhenguo General's Mansion because the current mistress of the Xiao family is a sibling with the late Zhenguo General's wife.

Seventeen years ago, a pair of sisters married into the Zhenguo General Mansion and the Xiao family respectively.

A year later, my sister married into the Xiao family and gave birth to a daughter, named Xiao Ruyi.

The following year, the sister who married into the Zhenguo General's Mansion also gave birth to a daughter, Ning Qingyan.

When Ning Qingyan was five years old, her father Ning Chenlang took command and went on an expedition, but unfortunately died in the southwest battlefield. His wife died of illness soon after due to excessive grief, leaving only a young daughter.

The old general Ning Yan only had one child in his life, Ning Qingyan's father. He lost his wife in his early years and his son in his middle age. His daughter-in-law also followed him. Under repeated blows, his health deteriorated. Now he doesn't even wake up much and is in a state of confusion.

, the general’s demeanor is no longer there.

After Ning Qingyan's parents died, Xiao Ruyi's mother often took Xiao Ruyi in and out of the Ning Mansion in the name of 'taking care'. As time went by, their mother and daughter were not masters in the Ning Mansion, but they were better than masters!

But Ning Qingyan, a serious young lady, was completely ignored by everyone in the house.

Snap!

Ning Qingyan climbed up the steps and stood with her feet in front of the door. The search for Ning's Mansion in her mind just ended.

squeak——

At this time, someone opened the ajar door from the inside. As soon as he saw the person standing outside the door, he was so frightened that he took two steps back and fell to the ground, not forgetting to scream...

"Ghost——!!"

The sound was really unpleasant, like a duck being strangled by the neck. Ning Qingyan plucked her ears with a look of disgust, completely ignoring the bloody face of the concierge who fell to the ground.

"Hahaha, this is too cowardly! Where did this ghost come from in broad daylight?"

"That's right, your eldest lady is clearly not dead!"

Seeing this scene in front of their eyes, the people of Zhongdu burst into laughter without scruples, completely forgetting who was so frightened by Ning Qingyan not long ago.

When Ning Qingyan heard the words of the people behind her, the corners of her mouth raised slightly. She was about to speak, but suddenly she smelled a smell of urine. Her eyes widened and she looked directly at the mud between the concierge's legs.

Damn it!

Kick, kick, kick!

Ning Qingyan frowned and took a few steps back in disgust. There was no way to enter this house!

"The eldest... the eldest lady is back... back——!" The concierge, who was dressed in filth, rolled and crawled towards the house.

Ning Qingyan raised her eyebrows when she saw this.

have to!

It saves her going in.

Her cold and bright eyes faintly swept over the yellow stain on the ground inside the door.

Inside the gate, the sound of chaotic footsteps soon came.

Ning Qingyan put her hands behind her back and squinted her eyes as she looked inside the door. At first glance, she recognized that the person running in front was Fei Jiu, the current housekeeper of the Ning Mansion.

A middle-aged man with a sinister look!

Such a person can become the steward of the Ning Mansion, naturally thanks to the Xiao family.

Ning Qingyan sneered in her heart, looking at these people wearing the clothes of slaves of the Ning family, they were almost all the Xiao family's lackeys.

After nearly ten years of care, Ning Mansion has long been the ‘other house’ for Xiao’s mother and daughter!

Fei Jiu didn't pay attention to the puddle of water under his feet, stepped on it, stared at Ning Qingyan and said preemptively: "Who are you? Why are you pretending to be my eldest lady! Where did you take my eldest lady's body?"

Ning Qingyan only felt that when this man saw her, shock flashed through his eyes. Then in a blink of an eye, he quickly defeated her army. It was no wonder that he was valued by the Xiao mother and daughter.

, took the position of steward of Ning Mansion.

However, now that Ning Qingyan is not arguing with him, counting the time, the other protagonist of this good show should appear soon.

"Fei Jiu, I'm afraid your eyes are damaged and you won't even be able to recognize your own eldest lady." The girl's voice was lazier than her age.

When Ning Qingyan spoke, her fingertips moved slightly, and a wisp of black smoke popped out from her fingertips and headed towards the center of Fei Jiu's eyebrows.

"Nonsense, my eldest lady was killed by a traitor, her appearance was completely ruined, and... uh!" Fei Jiu's voice stopped suddenly, and his eyes instantly became dull and dull.

Buzz!

More black smoke invisible to the naked eye exploded at Ning Qingyan's fingertips, splitting into countless numbers and heading towards the servants of the Ning Mansion.

Those eyes that were either frightened, surprised, or contemptuous instantly turned into the same dull look as Fei Jiu's.

"Fei Jiu, take a closer look, am I the eldest lady in your family?" Ning Qingyan said casually.

"Yes..." Fei Jiu replied numbly.

Ning Qingyan curled her lips in satisfaction, "Go and bring me a chair."

The servants of the Ning Mansion suddenly became extremely well-behaved. In a few breaths, they brought an imperial chair and placed it squarely at the door.

Ning Qingyan sat down unceremoniously. The plaque above her head was engraved with the words 'Zhenguo General's Mansion'.

After she sat down, she ordered someone to bring pen and ink. She didn't know what she wrote in front of everyone. As soon as she put away the pen and paper, there was a commotion from the outermost edge of the crowd outside the "Dismount the Monument" stone monument at the gate of the mansion.
