Chapter 209
Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing: "It's as if your family doesn't cultivate the land, and the sky drops food."

She didn't know that Ning Ansheng, who couldn't wait for her to come home at this time, happened to hear this conversation clearly, his eyes changed several times, and finally he pursed his lips and stepped forward, protecting his sister behind him.

"Since I consider myself a talented younger sister, please ask my sister-in-law to go back and learn from my uncle. What is etiquette and shame?"

Aunt Ning was so angry that she fell on her back, but she opened her mouth and said that there were not so many of them, and the force value was even worse, so she ran away crying in a fit of anger.

What no one knew was that when she returned to the old house, she was so hotheaded that she actually begged old man Ning and his wife to propose marriage for her.

Mrs. Ning was quite happy at first: "Are there any candidates you like on the list sent by the matchmaker?"

I don't know what she thinks, she clearly has nothing in her family, but relying on Ning Laosan's illusory fame, she really takes herself seriously, and even puts on airs for Aunt Ning to choose a son-in-law, so that the matchmaker Send her the list of young people to be married for her to choose.

This Young Aunt Ning didn't know where her self-confidence came from, she really studied in the room who was worthy of her every day.

At this moment, when she heard her mother's question, she shyly felt ashamed, and gave a shocking answer: "Yes, I think the Zhao family's offspring is good, mother, let him propose marriage for me."

Thinking of Rong Yan, Mrs. Ning felt chills behind her back: "Why did you fall in love with that outsider? That's a hunter who relies on mountains to eat mountains, and the family doesn't even have a decent field. If you marry him, isn't it doomed to suffer?"

Aunt Ning patted her chest: "Mother, don't worry, my daughter is not such a fool. I have thought of what you said a long time ago. You see, his family is now a hunter, but don't they all say that the family used to be rich? Why was it affected by the famine? That’s still the case. Didn’t Second Aunt tell you before that they and the Ning family eat meat every now and then, and the food is good.”

She rolled her eyes: "I guess they must pretend to be poor in order not to reveal their wealth. The family is well-off."

Mrs. Ning was worried: "Isn't this all your guess?"

Ning Xiaogu looked down on her mother's vision: "Then I'm not just guessing. If his family has no money, how can they support so many guards? Besides, with those servants around, it doesn't matter whether they are farming or hunting. Can the master still be troubled by himself?"

"When I get married, I will be their mistress. When I turn back, I don't have to worry about the work at home, and I don't have to worry about the land being planted. You and your father are just waiting to enjoy the blessings of being a master and wife. How nice it is!"

Mrs. Ning was really a little moved.

To be honest, after dividing the second room, she was most worried about the busy farming. There used to be a big room, and she hadn't done heavy work for many years, and she was not used to going to the ground suddenly. She didn't want to follow the old man at all. How tiring it is to serve the crops.

But if you don’t work, what will you eat next year?There are only a few dozen taels of silver left in the family, and I bought the third child a study outfit later, so there is not much left.

After thinking about it like this, she felt that her daughter's choice was good: "Sure, I'll write back to the matchmaker right away, but Zhao Yan is a little young, right?"

Aunt Ning doesn’t know, anyway, he is quite tall, maybe about the same age as Ning Dalang, although he is a little younger than her, but as the saying goes: “It’s okay for a female senior to hold a gold brick, but it’s a big deal. Get engaged first, and I'll wait for him for a few more years."

Mrs. Ning was right when she thought about it. It's good to get married. If there is a better choice later, she will just kick him.

At this time, Rong Yan, who was explaining the reason for Xiaoxiao's late return to the Ning family, suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and couldn't help shivering, Xiaoxiao hurriedly asked, "Did you catch a cold?"

Ning Fengnian glared at her angrily: "It's not because of you!"

For things like nonsense, the truth must be mixed with the false, so the two of them only said that they saw Lei Shaoming who had a feud with Xiaoxiao during the walk, so they hid on purpose to delay the time to go home.

Rong Yan shook his head: "Miss Ning can't be blamed for this matter, it was Lei Shaoming who was domineering, rude and provoked first, and he was the one who was at fault."

Xiaoxiao nodded repeatedly, like a wind-up follower.

Ning Ansheng had no reason to find this scene dazzling, but suppressed his doubts, and only stared at Xiaoxiao quietly after Rong Yan left.

Xiaoxiao raised her hands in surrender: "Brother, I didn't expect to hide it from you, so I will explain everything to you."

After hearing the whole story, Ning Ansheng first asked, "Where is the person you saved?"

Xiaoxiao said: "Give it to County Magistrate Shen to take him away. He will send someone to invite Dr. Gongsun overnight, hoping to save him."

She felt that the Lei family was not a good person. If the young man could be saved, she might be able to bring them down with evidence of the Lei family's evil deeds, so that she would not have to worry about being retaliated against in the future.

"Will Big Brother think I'm meddling in my own business and causing trouble?"

Ning Ansheng sighed: "The Lei family and our family have had a relationship since the Suanzhu incident. They are destined not to be friends, and if they are not provoked, this trouble cannot be avoided." This Liangzi was forced by the Lei family. , and did not give their family the right to choose. Furthermore, if the younger sister did not choose to hide with the boy at that time, but appeared in front of Lei Shaoming, I am afraid that she would not be able to escape unscathed.

He and Xiaoxiao's ideas coincided with each other, there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days, if the county magistrate Shen can take down the Lei family because of that young man, it will be beneficial to them.

They didn't know that the life of this young man was not only related to Lei's family.

Gongsun Zhongjing was tired when he came, but when he saw the young man, he took out the silver needle without hesitation. After a set of acupuncture, he was already sweating profusely: "Thanks to someone hanging his life with ginseng, Otherwise, let alone me, even if my master comes, there will be nothing he can do."

County magistrate Shen heaved a sigh of relief, and said solemnly and respectfully: "I wonder if the genius doctor can help this person? There are too many people, so I can't tell you in detail, but this person's life is related to the safety of countless people, so please help the genius doctor!" Prepared snacks - brought back from Ning's house.

Gongsun Zhongjing took a bite and nodded so swiftly that the county magistrate Shen, who was about to make a long pleading speech, was quite surprised. Didn't the child Mu Yan say that this genius doctor has a weird temper and is extremely difficult to serve?

The exhausted Gongsun Zhongjing finished his meal in two or three bites, and then went to confirm that the boy's life was safe for the time being, and he let out even breathing sounds when he collapsed on the collapsed floor.

The medicine boy who had never had any sense of presence stepped forward to tuck him in the quilt quietly: "Leave the matter of decocting the medicine to me. My son hasn't had a good night's sleep in three days. Please let him rest for a while."

The county magistrate Shen only left two yamen guards at the door to deal with emergencies after consulting the drug boy, and then told everyone to leave quietly.

When he was about to walk to the door, the drug boy caught up and asked in a low voice: "Master Shen, can you prepare some more snacks from just now?" That snack, I see that the young master seems to be very appetizing."
