Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge

Chapter 467 The Sister-in-Law in Uncle-Sister Literature 11

Qi Ning took the jade pendant off her neck.

"After I was arrested, all my jewelry was stolen. Only this jade pendant was hidden well and was not discovered. There was a word on the jade pendant."

Duan Yiyuan glanced at it and saw that the jade pendant was indeed engraved with the character "Ning".

“The name Ning means peace and tranquility. Perhaps it is a wish of the girl’s family for her, or perhaps it is related to the girl’s name,” Duan Yiyuan said. “In that case, the girl can temporarily use this name.”

"Young Master is right."

Aunt Luo chimed in, "Ning is a good name, let's call her Aning."

"it is good."

Qi Ning had prepared the jade pendant beforehand, so she naturally accepted it with a smile.

With Duan Yiyuan's permission, Qi Ning naturally stayed in his courtyard.

Although Duan Yiyuan lived in the main house and Qi Ning lived in the east wing, they were in the same small courtyard and would see each other all the time. Wasn't that half the battle won?

That evening, Qi Ning put on the clean clothes that Aunt Luo had prepared for her and lay down on the bed that Aunt Luo had made for her.

Even the system had to admire its host's speed; he had actually moved in within a day without revealing his true identity, simply by using the identity of a strange woman.

"Host, I thought you would confess directly to Duan Yiyuan and ask him to help you take revenge, but I didn't expect you to pretend to have amnesia."

"frank?"

Qi Ning lay on the bed, playing with her jade pendant: "Although if Duan Yiyuan knew my true identity, he would probably take me in for the time being, but he might not be willing to help me. After all, he has long since stopped caring about things in the capital."

"Besides, if he finds out I'm his sister-in-law, how am I supposed to win him over?"

As mentioned in the original story, Duan Yiyuan is somewhat stubborn and headstrong; otherwise, how could he have broken off relations with Duan Jingde to the point of severing ties?

He's not Duan Yihuai. Knowing this beforehand, he would never do anything against human ethics, nor would he be with his brother's wife.

Therefore, Qi Ning did not reveal his identity beforehand.

"That's true," the system replied. "So you're going to keep pretending to have amnesia in front of him?"

"Don't worry about that for now."

Qi Ning held the jade pendant in her palm.

Now, all she has to do is win over Duan Yiyuan.

From that day on, Qi Ning officially settled down in Duan Yiyuan's courtyard.

It must be said that Uncle Luo and Aunt Luo are truly good people, especially Aunt Luo, whose round face always carries a kind and warm smile.

Sometimes Qi Ning wanted to do something for Aunt Luo, but Aunt Luo wouldn't let her do it, as if she was afraid that Qi Ning would get tired. At most, she would just let Qi Ning stay by her side and talk to her.

Within a few days, Qi Ning had become familiar with them.

On the contrary, Duan Yiyuan and Qi Ning have been staying here for several days, but they are only nodding acquaintances.

Duan Yiyuan would occasionally go out, but he usually stayed in his study. Sometimes Qi Ning would help Aunt Luo go in to bring him tea, but they wouldn't say more than a few words.

That day, Aunt Luo was sitting in the yard picking vegetables, and Qi Ning was sitting next to her helping her.

She glanced in the direction of the study.

"Aunt Luo, the young master spent the whole day in the study again today."

"Yes," Aunt Luo said with a smile. "Young Master has always been like this. He likes to stay in his study to read and write. He rarely goes out and rarely talks to us. It's only when you, Aning, come that I have someone to talk to."

"Oh." Qi Ning lowered her voice slightly, "Won't talking like this disturb the young master? Won't he find it noisy?"

"No, don't worry. If the young master finds it noisy, he will definitely tell us."

Aunt Luo deftly pinched the vegetable leaves in her hand and said, "Your Uncle Luo and I usually talk like this. The young master may seem aloof, but he is a kind person and won't hold it against you."

Qi Ning nodded: "That's good."

She chatted and laughed with Aunt Luo, but her mind was on other things.

In the first few days after moving in, she did nothing but remain still, quietly figuring out Duan Yiyuan's habits and personality. Now it's time to take things a step further.

At the same time, Duan Yiyuan was sitting at his desk in his study, having just finished reading a letter.

It was a letter sent by the emperor. The emperor learned that Duan Yiyuan had left Guangren Temple and gone down the mountain, and asked him what his plans were and whether he had any plans to return to the capital.

After reading it, Duan Yiyuan casually stuffed the letter into a book next to him.

Just then, a light laugh drifted in from outside the window.

Duan Yiyuan raised his head and looked out through the half-open window, where he saw the smiling face in the courtyard.

Since she arrived, the house has become much livelier than before.

Duan Yiyuan said nothing, turned his gaze away, picked up his pen, and replied to the letter.

He had no plans to return to the capital at the moment, and naturally told the emperor the truth.

When Duan Yiyuan came out of the study, he met Qi Ning in the corridor.

Qi Ning appeared to be just passing by when she stopped and gently called out, "Young Master."

Then, she pointed in the direction of the kitchen and said, "Aunt Luo went to the kitchen to prepare dinner. I was just about to go back to my room."

When she spoke to him, she seemed somewhat reserved, unlike how relaxed she was in front of Aunt Luo.

Duan Yiyuan looked at her and asked, "How have you been these past few days?"

“Of course, it’s great. Young Master and Uncle Luo and Aunt Luo have been very kind to me.”

Duan Yiyuan nodded slightly, then casually asked, "Did you remember anything?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Ning's expression instantly turned somber.

She shook her head: "No."

Duan Yiyuan hummed in agreement: "No need to rush, think about it slowly."

After saying that, he tried to walk past Qi Ning.

Just as Duan Yiyuan walked up to Qi Ning and was about to pass her by, Qi Ning reached out and tugged at his sleeve.

"Son."

Duan Yiyuan stopped and looked down at her hand that was tugging at his sleeve: "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

Qi Ning let go of his hand, looked up and asked, "Young Master, are you annoyed by me and want to hurry me away?"

"Of course not," Duan Yiyuan denied outright.

He realized that Qi Ning had misunderstood something and explained, "I was just asking casually. I didn't mean to rush you or send you away. You don't need to take it to heart."

Qi Ning's expression finally relaxed.

She then said, "Young master, how about I do something to repay you? Even being your maid would be fine. After all, I feel really bad eating and living here for free."

"No need for that. Uncle Luo and Aunt Luo take care of everything at home. You don't need to do anything, and I don't need any maids to serve me."

During the years Duan Yiyuan lived at Guangren Temple, he became accustomed to doing everything himself and not letting anyone serve him.

After moving down the mountain, we settled into this small courtyard, which Uncle Luo and Aunt Luo were more than capable of managing.

Moreover, she looked pampered and spoiled, and must have been waited on at home before, so she couldn't possibly do the work of a maid.

Qi Ning frowned slightly: "But I really feel uneasy about it."

"That……"

Duan Yiyuan pondered.
