Chapter 253 People die like lights go out

Ning Ansheng looked at his younger brother thoughtfully, but only looked away from him, Xiaoxiao sighed pretentiously: "Ah, the second brother has grown up."

Ning Anhui almost choked on his own saliva, he retorted not to be outdone: "You are the youngest in our family!"

Xiaoxiao nodded: "Yes, so you should get married first."

Ning An replied that he couldn't beat her, so he asked with a straight face, "Are there enough bricks and wood?"

Hey, look at how anxious he is.

In order to prevent her from teasing her brother too much, Xiaoxiao didn't joke anymore, but told her parents about it again.

Of course, the two of them would not object to the important matter of their children and grandchildren's studies. Not only did they not object, they also immediately started to make arrangements, and made the villagers who came to finish the finishing work today busy for two more days.

When they heard that the Ning family was going to build a reading room, the villagers really admired and envied them, but the books were so expensive, they probably wouldn't be able to learn such skills in their lifetime.

During the discussion of the plan, some villagers hesitated and asked: "Feng Nian, have you heard about the old house?"

They were not at home yesterday, and they came back late, Ning Fengnian's expression became a little pale: "I only heard part of it."

The villagers rushed to fill in the parts they didn't know.

For example, the old house suffered heavy losses, half of the yard burned down, and a son died.

For example, the second aunt Ning has not been seen so far, and Mrs. Ning suspects that she fled in fear of crime after setting the fire.

Another example is that Mrs. Ning was preparing to hold a funeral for her second son, and sent a message to the villagers asking them to send Fengcai on his last journey. Everyone said in private that they wanted them to pay money to fill the vacancy in the family.

You must know that for folks in the village, no matter whether they participate in funerals or red events, it is absolutely necessary to give gifts.

But is what the old house did called a human thing?The dead son was used by them as a profitable business?
Someone complained angrily: "It's not like we still plan to let us send back the more than 50 taels of silver that Ning Er sent out to her?"

"We are not such a rich family."

While talking, Aunt Ning, who was full of reluctance, appeared outside Ning's house wearing a nondescript bamboo hat covered with gauze: "Brother, are you at home?"

Isn't this nonsense, with so many people, could it be that they all broke through the empty door?

Song was close, wiped off the water on his hands and walked over: "What's the matter?"

Aunt Ning rolled her eyes behind the scarf: "I'm looking for my elder brother, what can I do for you?"

Before Song could speak, Ning Fengnian said angrily: "If there is nothing wrong with my wife, it must have nothing to do with me. You can go."

Aunt Ning was in a hurry now, she felt aggrieved and unwilling to find that Ning Fengnian was not going to give in, so she reluctantly called "Sister-in-law".

Song Shi was quite angry at first, but seeing Ning Fengnian protecting her, she felt relieved.

The old house is now a mess, and evil comes with evil.

Aunt Ning felt that her eldest brother was much more dignified than before. He was already strong, and it was scary to show his face like this. She was thinking about the task her mother had given her, and she looked down at the ground and said something.

"Brother, no matter what misunderstanding there is between us, the second brother is gone, you should come and give it away anyway, and it will be considered all the affection of eating a pot of rice all these years."

"Death is like a lamp being extinguished. Even if Second Brother has wronged you in the past, once he leaves, you should forget about it."

"Father and mother are old, even if the second brother is confused, they have really worked hard to raise you. If you still miss the old relationship, it is not too much to visit your parents during the holidays, right?"

Ning Fengnian didn't know if he would feel a little guilty if he didn't know what the second younger sibling said and did in the county government office. Anyway, now, he only feels cold all over his body and his scalp is numb.

If what the second sibling said in the county government office is true, how cruel is his stepmother?
But where did the second younger brother and sister have the courage to lie in front of the county magistrate with their bullying temperament?

He didn't respond for a while, and Aunt Ning, who was used to being the eldest lady at home, lost her temper: "What are you talking to, brother? Are you going or not? I said that you don't want to be polite, even the second brother's You don’t want to attend the funeral, do you? Your parents have kicked him out of the family tree and volunteered to help him, how dare you?”

Looking at the magnificent big house behind them, Aunt Ning felt sour in her heart: "Sure enough, the richer people are, the more stingy they are!"

As soon as the words fell, Xiaoxiao came out of the kitchen: "Go."

Aunt Ning couldn't bear to see Dafang pampering a girl so much, but it was not good to refute her words at this time, so she had to remind her a little sourly: "Don't go empty-handed, it will make people laugh."

According to the yamen servant, Second Aunt Ning fainted yesterday, no matter what happens today, County Magistrate Shen will make a decision on this matter, at least it is inevitable to summon the relevant people to go to court.

She also wanted to use the eyes of the original owner to take a good look at the fate of the old house.

Now that my sister has said so, first of all Ning Ansheng and Ning Anhui have no objections. It just so happens that today is the day of the college's rotation. Ning Ansheng also feels that his study efficiency has been greatly improved last night, so he doesn't mind taking the time to take a walk.

Even Ning An didn't leave in a hurry even if he was looking at losing money. He was afraid that the lunatics in the old house would get sick, so don't hurt his sister and mother.

After completing the purpose of this trip, Aunt Ning took a longing look at Dafang's magnificent new house, and then walked away step by step, and she couldn't help muttering as she left.

"What's the big deal, wait until I marry a rich man and official, the house is ten times bigger than your house!"

Xiaoxiao has sharp eyes and ears, and she just wants to laugh after hearing it.

The old house is also really capable, obviously living such a life, but raising a daughter with a lofty heart, which shows the importance of education to the next generation!
She turned her head and solemnly emphasized: "Our study room must be well built!"

Since we are going to attend the funeral, the building of the study room can only be shelved temporarily. In line with the principle of casting a wide net to catch more fish, Mrs. Ning notified the whole village, causing Second Uncle Ning's mourning hall to be full of people. , making it look like he is such a big shot.

Mrs. Ning and Mrs. Ning were receiving guests in the mourning hall. They were plainly dressed and had miserable faces. Outsiders looked really sad.

Ning Fengnian felt even more terrifying because of her performance.

Granny Ning's eyes lit up when she noticed the people in the big room, and her crying voice was louder than before.

"My son, you went so miserable!"

Everyone in the big room felt a circle of goosebumps crawling out of their arms very quickly.

Seeing them standing outside and not coming in, Mrs. Ning quickly lost her patience.

"What do you mean, Boss, your second brother did something wrong to you in the past, but now he has apologized with death, but you still want to hold grudges like this, and let him die with regret?"

Even now, she still wants to beat her up. Ning Fengnian sighed, but before he could speak, he heard the sound of horseshoes and footsteps not far away.

The villagers looked around in perplexity, only the people in the big house who knew some inside information got out of the way with complicated expressions.
