Ning Mengyao nodded lightly: "He learned reading or arithmetic very quickly. Although he went last, he learned the best except Lin'er."

"Okay then, let's send Zhi'er to private school." Yang Lele clapped her hands and made a decision, ignoring the looks of the two men next to her.

Hearing Yang Lele's voice, Yang Zhu and his son realized what they were doing. Yang Yi looked at his sister with complex eyes: "Lele needs a lot of money to send Zhi'er to a private school." A year's training will not be enough, and there will be more money. There are pens, inks, paper and inkstones.

"What's the point? Our family's life will only get better and better in the future." How could Yang Lele not know what Yang Yi was thinking? But so what? This is her nephew. If he goes to school in the future, he will also have face, right

When Ning Mengyao saw what Yang Yi was going to say, she chuckled: "Brother Yang, you don't have to worry so much. In fact, I have always wanted to do you a favor after you recover from your injury."

"What?"

"Steward." Ning Mengyao looked at Yang Yi's red lips and spat out two words.

The word "steward" made Yang Lele and her daughter a little confused as to what she meant. Ning Mengyao did not explain but just smiled and said: "Brother Yang will understand in the future."

"That's okay." Yang Yi thought about it and nodded in agreement. She was just helping her. After all, she had helped her family so much, so she wouldn't harm their family. Since she wasn't harming them, she would definitely be helping them.

At the dinner table, Yang Yi told his wife and Mrs. Yang what Ning Mengyao said. They were both very happy, especially Ms. Qiao, who felt even more grateful to Ning Mengyao and her sister-in-law.

After the meal, Ning Mengyao didn't stay at their house for long before she went back alone. On the way back, she kept observing the village. On the way, she met some children who had gone to learn calligraphy from her before. She was fascinated by their eyes. See it in your eyes.

But she just smiled and didn't say anything.

When passing by a house, Ning Mengyao heard a somewhat familiar voice: "Men and women are not allowed to have sex, Yang Cui, you'd better go back."

This familiar voice made Ning Mengyao look in curiously. It was the man who sold her prey several times. She tilted her head and saw some pheasants and rabbits at his feet. After thinking about it, she walked in. .

Originally, Qiao Tianchang was very dissatisfied when he came back and saw the daughter of his uncle next door in his home and taking away his own things without authorization. His face was very ugly. Then he saw Ning Mengyao walking in with a little smile in his eyes. , dropped Yang Cui and walked over.

"What's the matter?" Qiao Tianchang also knew that these words were a bit too affectionate, especially in Yang Cui's eyes.

Yang Cui is considered to be the best-looking in the entire Baishan Village, and she is also pretty and pleasant. The family treats her as a lady, so she hopes to marry into a good family.

Yang Cui has always been the kind of person who has a high self-esteem. She feels that no one in the whole Baishan Village is prettier than her, not even the village chief's Yang Lele can compare with her. However, now she sees a girl she has never seen before. The woman was wearing a bright yellow dress and simply wore two hairpins on her head, but her style was exquisite.

Not only that, she found that she had a sense of inferiority when she saw Ning Mengyao, especially in front of her elegance, she felt like a bumpkin.

"I just passed by and saw that you had prey here, so I wanted to buy a few." Ning Mengyao smiled and explained her purpose.

Qiao Tianchang raised her eyebrows slightly. She bought so many last time, so she couldn't finish them all, right? But that's not what he should be concerned about: "How many do you want?"

"Two pheasants and two hares." Ning Mengyao looked down and pointed at the prey on the ground.

He picked up a few prey and handed them to Ning Mengyao. Ning Mengyao paid the money and prepared to leave, while Qiao Tianchang sent them to the door.

When Yang Cui saw that Qiao Tianchang was treating a woman like this, she looked very ugly, especially since the other woman was prettier than herself, so she muttered in a low voice: "Shameless, you come out to seduce men in broad daylight." Not only Qiao Tianchang heard this. Yes, even Ning Mengyao heard it. She was about to walk out, but she turned around and looked at him coldly: "It's not illegal for me to buy prey, but you, girl, look like you're already hair-length, right? A girl with hair-length hair. It’s not good to show up at a man’s house.”

"you… "

"Yang Cui, I don't want you to come into my house casually in the future, especially when my door is still locked." Qiao Tianchang suddenly looked at Yang Cui and said coldly. These words were undoubtedly meant to hurt Ning Mengyao. He hit Yang Cui in the face.

She looked at Qiao Tianchang in disbelief: "Brother Qiao, you actually helped this woman?"

"We're not familiar with each other, so don't call us so intimate. Even if she doesn't come today, I plan to tell you. I don't want to taint your innocence, and I also ask you to save some face for yourself." Qiao Tianchang said coldly without being polite at all. said.

The words he spoke were like needles, piercing into Yang Cui's heart.
