Ning Yanting lay on the bed for more than half a month before he was finally able to get off the ground.

He first went to the yamen to sell off his leave, and after getting acquainted with the official affairs that fell during this period of time, he chatted with colleagues who were familiar and unfamiliar, and finally began to deal with official affairs again. She had already dealt with many contents in her previous life, and Ning Yanting still had some vague impressions, so the processing speed was not slow.

After the noon break, Mother Ning sent someone to deliver his soup. The soup is packed in the food box, which keeps the heat well. When Ning Yanting took it out from Ningfu to the Yamen, the walls of the bowl were still hot.

When a colleague saw him drinking the medicine, he couldn't help but ask curiously: "Master Ning, you have suffered such a serious injury, why don't you report it to the official? This is a serious crime for beating a court official. , Lord Ning is planning to give up?"

Hearing this, Ning Yanting glanced at his colleague before saying anything, and opened his mouth to say something, but his face soon showed embarrassment, he sighed heavily, and then kept silent.

His move, on the contrary, raised the curiosity of his colleagues.

"Lord Ning? This... Is there anything else that can't be said?" Several colleagues approached, and their faces could not help but show caution: "Could it be that Ning has offended some big man?"

Ning Yanting sighed and said bitterly, "If I really offended someone, who would do such a sinister thing, if it was me..."

He was startled, realized that he had missed something, stopped in a hurry, and covered up: "My lords, this is a family matter, so don't ask."

housework? !

This is so good, could it be that he was beaten like that by his family

The colleagues glanced at each other and didn't ask any more questions. They dispersed, but they couldn't help but wonder what the unfinished words of Nangyanting were in their hearts. You must know how good Lord Ning is to his family, that is known to all in the court. Ning Yanting was a well-known dutiful son, and he treated his two younger brothers very generously. Occasionally, a servant would go directly to the yamen to ask for money, and he gave it very happily. Usually, his words were always right to the two. Brother's maintenance.

They all see the relationship between Ning Yanting and his family. Now listening to Ning Yanting's hesitant words, he can't help but have preconceived notions about the Ning family.

What kind of deep hatred can you have to make your own big brother look like this? Not reporting to the office after suffering such a serious injury, Lord Ning was too indulgent towards his two brothers. The colleagues shook their heads and sighed in their hearts, but no one said what was in their hearts.

Ning Yanting would be seriously injured, in the end, it was because of Ning Yanhai. Since he was brought back by the servant in a coma, Ning Yanhai has been avoiding him and never appeared in front of him. After finally waiting for him to walk down the ground, Ning Yanhai finally appeared dodgingly.

When Ning Yanting finished his official duties and returned to Ning Mansion in a sedan chair, Ning Yanhai stopped him as soon as he stepped into the gate.

"Big brother." Ning Yanhai came up to him in a pleasing manner: "Big brother, how is your injury?"

Ning Yanting looked at him coldly.

In the past half month, even Ning Yanwen has been here several times, but Ning Yanhai, the culprit, has never appeared. Now that he wakes up, he doesn't understand why. Compared with the second brother who is used to pretending, the third brother almost doesn't care about him, but he seems to have been blindfolded in his previous life. Can't find this.

Ning Yanting said coldly, "Thank you third brother for your concern. My injuries are much better, and now I can move normally."

"That's fine, that's fine." Ning Yanhai said earnestly, "Big brother, I'm sorry for this matter. It's just that my brother knows that he has always been broad-minded and will definitely not care about such trivial matters. I forgot to thank you, thanks to the big brother who came forward and helped me a lot, just... "

He said, frowning, and a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.

Ning Yanting sneered in his heart, but did not follow his words and asked, but said, "The third brother agreed before that when the reward for my help will be given to me?"

"I... ah?" Ning Yanhai was dumbfounded.

Why didn't this stupid big brother take his words and ask him about it? reward? What remuneration? Oh, by the way, when he persuaded Ning Yanting, he did say that if Ning Yanting was willing to help, he would help with Ning Qing's jewelry.

But what he said was just talking, why did the big brother really want it

Ning Yanhai was angry in his heart, and his tone was a little bad: "Big brother and I have such a relationship, is it possible that you are still doubting me?"

"I don't dare to doubt it, but it's been more than half a month, and the third brother hasn't paid me yet." Ning Yanting sighed and said, "Third brother, you don't know something, your sister-in-law has already I don’t want to give it to me anymore. Big brother really can’t get any money out of his pocket, but the second brother is still waiting, but fortunately, the third brother promised me before that he was willing to help me Share some, big brother really don't know how to thank you."

I don't know how to thank you, but don't mention it!

Ning Yanhai's face suddenly became ugly, he immediately said: "To be honest, the younger brother wants to ask the elder brother to borrow money..."

"Borrowing money? What kind of money? If it was in the past, Big Brother would definitely have taken it out immediately, but now... Sigh." Ning Yanting sighed again, he took out the money bag from his bosom, opened it, and fell down. It was empty and there was nothing: "If the third brother is not in a hurry, I would still like to ask the third brother to borrow money."

"I!?"

Ning Yanting interrupted him: "Speaking of which, the third brother sent a servant to me and asked me to pay a lot of money in advance, and the money has not been returned to me yet, now it is just right, we are all at home, Why don't you give it back to the big brother now."

Ning Yanhai immediately retorted: "No way!"

"Third brother, please don't say that, the second brother is still waiting for my money. If the third brother pays back the money, I can go and prepare a dowry for Ning Qing." Ning Yanting said with a happy face, "Ning Qing Married to a good family, the second brother is right, and the dowry should be prepared more."

"His daughter gets married, what does that have to do with me!"

"You forgot what Mother said, the three of us have to work together, whoever is in trouble, why not help?" Ning Yanting said with a smile: "I also forgot how much money, so, third brother It's enough to pay me back five thousand taels, so that the debt between us will be bought and sold in one lump sum."

"Five thousand taels?!" Ning Yanhai widened his eyes: "Where can I find five thousand taels for you?"

Ning Yanting looked disappointed: "Could it be that the third brother doesn't want to?"

Of course he doesn't want to!

Five thousand taels of silver, who would like it

The thought of giving him so much money made Ning Yanhai almost vomit blood, and even his face sank. He opened his mouth to refuse, but Ning Yanting took the lead, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "The eldest brother is waiting in the room, the third brother will send the money tonight, Ning Qing's marriage can't be delayed any longer. down."

After finishing speaking, Ning Yanting didn't even give him a chance to speak, he raised his feet and left here with quick steps, not like a person who had just recovered from a serious illness.

Only left Ning Yanhai stunned and stood there. After a long while, he took a deep breath and walked away cursing.

What about Ning Qing's marriage? It's just wishful thinking to take five thousand taels from him!

But he can't ask the big brother to help him with the matter of silver. He has to think about it, who else can help him solve this matter...

Ning Yanting walked back to the yard quickly, and kept going all the way. When he stopped in the house, he was already sweating profusely and was out of breath.

Mother Ning looked up at him in surprise: "What happened? Could it be that someone is chasing you from behind?"

"I met my third brother at the door when I went home."

Mother Ning's heart tightened.

I heard Ning Yanting say again: "He seemed to want to ask me to borrow money, but where did I have the money to lend him, I asked him to ask for the money he owed me, and then he came back."

Mother Ning glanced at him with a half-smiling smile: "There's a lot of stuff in this house. If you take it out again, you can get some money back."

Ning Yanting: "..."

When he thought that he was still holding things out to raise money as a pawn, and the big head of the money flowed into the pockets of the two white-eyed wolves, Ning Yanting was stunned, and his heart was even more painful.

If he could come back sooner, how much jewelry could A Nuan be able to buy with that money!

He said with a bitter face: "Madam, don't make fun of me."

"I'm not joking, but I'm giving you advice from the bottom of my heart. I'm afraid you forgot that you promised to give Ning Qing a dowry, right?" Mother Ning fiddled with the abacus and said casually. "I think the old lady also told you that she wants you to take back Ning Qing's jewelry, right?"

Ning Yanting said indifferently, "Hasn't all those jewelry been sold by your madam? Since they are sold, that's fine. What's more, the third brother has promised to return Ning Qing's jewelry for me."

"He?" Mother Ning sneered and said nothing. She asked again: "Then how do you plan to raise Ning Qing's dowry? I've said beforehand that everything I have will be reserved for A Nuan as a dowry, and Ning Qing has nothing to do with me, so please don't. Plead on my head for her."

Ning Yanting didn't care anymore.

He said: "When the time comes, I will take out two heads and faces from the warehouse, and I will treat it as a makeup."

"that's all?"

"Isn't this okay?" Ning Yanting frowned and thought for a while, and then suddenly realized: "Mrs. means too much? Since there are too many, just take one."

Mother Ning was dumbfounded: "You just said, where did you get it from?"

"Warehouse."

"Public Treasury?"

"Of course it is."

Mother Ning: "..."

Mother Ning was stunned for a while, before nodding impatiently; "Since that's the case, then I'll do as you said?"

"etc."

Mother Ning's expression froze.

Ning Yanting leaned over to her and whispered, "When Madam goes to the public treasury to get things, can you make the fuss a little bigger?"

"… Bigger?" Mother Ning looked at him in surprise: "What do you mean by being bigger?"

"Not only should the second room know, but also the third room. If it can get in front of the old lady, it would be even better." Ning Yanting said, and apologized again: "It's just that I wronged the lady. If the lady doesn't like it, then don't make trouble."

do not like? How could she not like it!

Not only to let the second room know, but also to let the third room know, and to go to the old lady's side? !

As soon as Mother Ning thought about it, she already had an idea.

She thought to herself: Isn't this what she wants

Recently, she thinks that life is too peaceful, and she wants to cause more trouble for the second and third bedrooms!

It's just that Ning Yanting has changed his temper recently? There was something wrong when she was recovering from her injury, and now she is still asking her to find trouble by name. Is it true that she has woken up

"I have one more thing to tell my wife."

"whats the matter?"

Ning Yanting hesitated for a while before saying, "The reason why I was severely injured is because of my third brother. He caused trouble outside and asked me to help, but he didn't tell me the truth, so I was hurt. Seriously injured. It was only after this incident that I realized that the third and second brothers had lied to me when they told me that they were brothers.”

Mother Ning was overjoyed and blurted out, "You finally found out?!"

Ning Yanting: "..."

Mother Ning coughed and said, "Then what do you mean..."

Ning Yanting looked at her and said sternly, "Madam, what do you think about the separation?"

Another day at dusk, the students walked out of the academy in twos and threes.

Ning Lang's footsteps were brisk, and there was a servant behind him who helped him carry the bookcase and followed him closely. Ning Lang glanced back, frowned at first, then touched the thing in his arms, and smiled happily.

He hasn't seen the girl he loves for many days, but his mother sent someone to stare at him. He was worried that he didn't know what to do, and the girl he loved sent a purse over to him. .

The purse was embroidered by the girl in his heart himself, especially with the fragrance on her body. After Ning Lang received this purse, he felt like a fairy all day, and he didn't even hear what the master said.

There was still a letter from the girl in his heart in his arms, and he kept it close to his body for a day, and the body temperature was warm. Ning Lang just glanced at it roughly, but he planned to wait until he got home, hide in the house alone, and enjoy it.

Thinking of this, he couldn't wait to go home.

Just before going home, he didn't forget to turn a corner and buy the snacks that his sister specially stopped him to ask him to buy when he went out in the morning.

When Ning Lang returned home with snacks, he went to Ning Nuan first.

"Ah Nuan, look, I brought you the snacks you mentioned." Ning Lang put down the snacks, touched his purse through his clothes, didn't say a word, and turned to leave.

"Brother, wait." Ning Nuan stopped him.

Ning Lang stopped: "A Nuan, are you still looking for me?"

Ning Nuan sniffed and said in confusion, "Brother, who did you meet today, why is there still incense on your body?"

"Really?" Ning Lang was overjoyed: "Did you smell it?"

That must be the fragrance of the purse of the girl in his heart!

Ning Lang thought about it in his heart. When he returned to the room, he should read the letter first, then sniff the purse, and then think about the girl in his heart. If the girl in his heart could enter his dream, then Nothing better.

"Why did my brother suddenly start using incense? This incense is not suitable for my brother. When I let Xiang Tao go to the storeroom to find it, let's change my brother's incense."

Ning Lang was in a hurry: "No, I want this. A Nuan, you don't understand, this is..." He paused and quickly stopped.

Ning Nuan had heard it, and asked curiously, "What is this?"

"This is... this is... A Nuan, this is my private matter, so don't ask."

Ning Nuan was startled, lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes cast a shadow, her expression looked a little hurt: "Brother dislikes me."

Ning Lang was shocked, hurriedly walked over, sat down beside her, and coaxed softly, "It was my fault, I shouldn't have yelled at you, please forgive me, A Nuan, I will give it to you tomorrow. You buy Baozhizhai's dim sum, and your favorite passion cake... No, Xiang Tao, go to the kitchen and make a bowl of apricot cheese for the lady."

Xiang Tao responded and went out immediately.

Ning Nuan couldn't help laughing, and then stopped Xiangtao and said, "How can I be angry with my brother."

Ning Lang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It would be best if A Nuan doesn't get angry with me."

Ning Nuan changed her words and said quietly, "But if my brother doesn't even want to tell me about such trivial matters as incense, even though I'm not angry, I'll be sad in my heart."

"Okay Nuan, it's just incense, do you even care about me?"

"Today is incense, maybe tomorrow, my brother won't even say a word to me, he thinks I'm too much in charge."

Ning Lang scratched his head and had no choice but to say, "Then... Then I'll tell you, you can't tell your mother."

Ning Nuan nodded, she glanced at Xiang Tao, Xiang Tao clearly retreated with all the maids, and closed the door when she was going out. In the blink of an eye, there were only two brothers and sisters left in the house.

Ning Lang was very satisfied, and when he told her the truth, he was no longer so reluctant.

He took out a purse from his arms and put it in front of Ning Nuan. When he thought that it was made by the girl in his heart, and he was talking about introducing it to his sister, he couldn't help but soften his tone and say kind words to the girl in his heart: "A Nuan, look, this is what Xing'er entrusted to me today."

"Who is Xing'er?"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, Xing'er is my sweetheart." Ning Lang's face turned a little red when he mentioned the girl he was happy with: "Xing'er is a good girl, if you see A Nuan When he arrives, he will definitely like her."

Ning Nuan frowned: "But my brother didn't say that her background is not clear..."

Ning Lang said anxiously, "Xing'er is an innocent girl, A Nuan, you misunderstood, Xing'er is a good innocent girl, but her family has implicated her."

"her home?"

Ning Lang looked around and saw that the door was tightly closed, and he was sure no one would come in, so he lowered his voice and told her the truth: "Her father is a gambler, he owes a lot of debt outside, and their family can't pay, I thought about selling her..."

Contacting the person who lived in Hulu Alley, Ning Nuan quickly realized what the sale meant.

She deliberately said: "So my brother is in love with a girl who is engaged? That's absolutely impossible. No matter how confused my brother is, he can't do such a thing to steal his wife."

"No, of course not. I paid out the money to help Xing'er's father pay off the debt. Xing'er is not married yet." Ning Lang said happily; "She is a good innocent girl, A Nuan, you But don't get me wrong."

"Brother helped her pay off the debt? When did that happen?"

"It's just… not too long ago."

Ning Nuan was surprised: "Where did brother get the money?"

Ning Lang's voice was even lower: "I became a jade pendant..."

Ning Nuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Dad ran out of money, so he went to the pawn shop to pawn things, and brother went to the pawn shop when he ran out of money. Then the pawnshop actually did so much business for their Ning family

"The elder brother paid off the gambling debt for her, and that girl Xing'er fell in love with her elder brother?"

"That's not true, Xing'er and I used to be in love with each other." Ning Lang was very embarrassed: "After I rescued Xing'er, she likes me even more, you see, I haven't seen her for a few days. I thought I had specially asked someone to send me a purse. Ah Nuan, look, this purse is so beautifully made, and the embroidery is also beautiful."

Ning Nuan glanced at the purse. The stitches are not fine enough, and the flower is a little out of shape, not as good as what Xiang Tao usually does. It's also Ning Lang's lover who sees Xishi in the eyes, even looking at a purse looks good.

Maybe, in his heart, even making a purse that doesn't look good can be the advantage of that girl Xing'er!

"Brother is determined to marry Miss Xing'er?"

"That's right. Although there are more problems in Xing'er's family, she is a good girl. Whether it's you or your mother, you will definitely like it when you meet her. Xing'er is ingenious, gentle and kind. , not as good as her."

Ning Nuan nodded, changed the conversation, and said, "If my brother insists on marrying a commoner woman, and if she is a good girl, then I won't say anything, but my brother will be the master of Ning's mansion in the future, if girl Xing'er joins Ning Fu is the future mistress, and her every move represents Ning Fu's face. Big brother doesn't care, what if brother's friends care? Big brother also knows, people like us pay more attention to identity."

"Ah Nuan, don't worry, Xing'er was introduced by my friends, and they also like Xing'er."

Ning Nuan reminded: "I'm not talking about that, it's His Royal Highness Prince An."

Ning Lang was taken aback.

"My brother has a good relationship with King An. If my brother gets married in the future, then my sister-in-law will also be with Princess An. If she can marry King An, her status is definitely not low, but Miss Xing'er is just a commoner, how can Princess An see it? Eyes?"

Ning Lang didn't think about this.

Ning Nuan added: "Now that Prince An has not married a concubine, then Princess An is also a matter of no concern. I only say that Prince An, who communicates with Prince An, are also powerful and powerful, and my elder brother is also the eldest son of the Ning residence. Wang knows that my brother married an ordinary person, and I don't know what King An will think."

Ning Nuan paused for a while, then said, "The friends between King An and my brother are different. I know that my brother and King An have a good relationship, but King An's identity is different from ours. My brother also said that the family of Miss Xing'er is quite chaotic. , if it is used by someone with a heart, my brother will be careful to implicate King An... Has my brother told His Royal Highness about Miss Xing'er again?"

Ning Lang shook his head.

"Since that's the case, why don't brother go and ask An Wang's opinion."

Ning Nuan thought to himself: With his brother's temperament, he would definitely go and ask An Wang. If King An had a really good relationship with his brother, he would definitely help out after he knew it. If it's not good, she can also do something in the middle, so that her brother can see the true face of the gentle and caring girl Xing'er.

No wonder Ning Nuan thought bad about that girl Xing'er.

Referring to the personalities of Ning Lang's friends, she really didn't believe her stupid brother's luck to be able to meet such a good girl who came out of the mud and was not stained.
