After sending off all the children that day, Yang Xiuer walked in with a look of worry on her face.

"Is something wrong?" Ning Mengyao frowned slightly as she looked at Yang Xiu'er who was standing on the side looking at her but saying nothing. What on earth did she want to do? Did she come here just to watch herself do something

Yang Xiuer had an embarrassed look on her face and was already trying to please her: "Meng Yao, can I ask you something?"

"Say it."

"Can...can you lend me some money?" Yang Xiuer asked tentatively.

Ning Mengyao, who was still cleaning up, listened and looked up at Yang Xiuer: "Why do you want to borrow money?"

"Well, my family needs to build a house, and we don't have enough money, so... so..." Yang Xiuer felt ashamed when she said this.

That day she went home and told her mother that Ning Mengyao lent Yang Lele fifty taels of silver without blinking an eye. Her mother said that she would find a way to borrow some money from Ning Mengyao so that the family could live better. Well, they have no intention of paying it back after borrowing it.

Ning Mengyao looked at Yang Xiu'er with mocking eyes. The look in her eyes made Yang Xiu'er want to escape from here.

The moment Yang Xiuer wanted to turn around and escape, Ning Mengyao said, "How much do you want?"

Yang Xiuer's eyes lit up. Did she agree? Suppressing the excitement in her heart, Yang Xiuer said: "Only one hundred taels."

Ning Mengyao was amused by Yang Xiuer's words. Do you need to borrow a hundred taels to build a house? Just want it? How big of a house does her family have to build to spend a hundred taels

Does she really look that easy to bully? Anyone can pinch and rub it.

"Mengyao?" Seeing that Ning Mengyao remained silent, Yang Xiuer called out hesitantly.

As if she had just reacted, Ning Mengyao looked at Yang Xiuer and lightly opened her red lips: "No."

Yang Xiuer, who was still looking forward to it, suddenly heard her say she wouldn't lend it, and her expression instantly changed. She said displeasedly, "You can lend Yang Lele fifty taels, why can't you lend it to me?"

That matter-of-fact tone made Ning Mengyao couldn't help but chuckle: "Do I look like an idiot?"

"What?" Yang Xiuer didn't understand for a moment what Ning Mengyao meant and asked subconsciously.

"Do you really think I don't know how much it will cost to build a house here? One hundred taels, oh, Yang Xiu'er, do you think I'm being taken advantage of?" From Yang Xiu'er's attitude, Ning Mengyao could tell that this money was lent out. , I’m afraid there will be no room to return it.

Yang Xiuer's expression changed unpredictably because of Ning Mengyao's words, and she finally left Ning Mengyao's house with a gloomy face.

Not long after that, it was reported in Baishan Village that Ning Mengyao was misbehaving and hooking up with a married man. After being discovered, Ning Mengyao was kicked out, so she had so much money.

Ning Mengyao, who rarely went to the village, was not very clear about this, but the number of students coming to class every day was gradually decreasing. This made Ning Mengyao strange, but she ignored it until Yang Lele came over that day.

"Those Yaoyao people have gone too far." Yang Lele's face was very gloomy and ugly.

"Huh? What happened?" Ning Mengyao stopped what she was doing, looked at Yang Lele, and asked strangely.

She hadn't been to the village for a long time, so naturally she didn't know what happened in the village.

"Some people say that you are immoral and hooking up with other men. Because of this, they are no longer willing to send their children to you to learn how to read. They think that people like you are not qualified to educate their children." With Ning Mengyao, there was nothing Yang Lele couldn't say, so he directly told Ning Mengyao what he knew.

Ning Mengyao looked at Yang Lele in surprise. She didn't seem to have done anything, right? How could such words come out

"How long has this been said?"

"Five or six days."

Five or six days? Wasn't that after Yang Xiuer came to her to borrow money

It turned out to be her, a flash of sarcasm flashed in her eyes. Seeing her like this, Yang Lele asked curiously: "Do you know who it is?"

"Yes, I know."

"Who is it?" Yang Lele asked in surprise. She was really curious about who wanted to slander Ning Mengyao's reputation like this.

"Yang Xiu'er."
