I become a sage by eating books

Chapter 22

Liu Jianghe, who was hiding in the dark, hurried back home, and immediately said to Wang Guihua when Liu Meiniang was not there: "Mother's news, this Ning family is really going to send it."

Wang Guihua hurriedly asked, "What big news, why did the Ning family send it?"

Liu Jianghe scooped up a ladle of water from the well and drank it in big gulps. "Mother, don't be in a hurry and let me take it easy!" After drinking the water, Liu Jianghe said again, "Mother, do you know who sent Ning An back?"

"Oh, you said it, what kind of charades?"

Liu Jianghe lowered his voice and said, "I followed the carriage secretly and heard their conversation. It turned out that it was Manager Xu from Ruyilou who sent Ning'an back."

Wang Guihua had a look of disbelief, "The manager of Ruyi Building? Why did he send Ning Wulang?"

"Mother, don't ask me first, let me speak slowly. The manager of Ruyi Building said that their boss is Ning An's sworn brother, and that Ning An's family is their boss's family, and they brought many gifts to the Ning family. , There are two big carriages!"

Wang Guihua's expression changed, "The two big carriages, have you looked carefully? And the steward Xu really said that their boss is the sworn brother of Ning Jiawulang?"

"Mother, there is still a lie in this matter. I heard it with my own ears. The steward Xu called Ning An the young master and Aunt Ning the madam."

Wang Guihua was shocked, and the expression on her face did not change. Some were surprised, some were envious, and more of them were jealous and calculating.

"My darling, the Ning family is really about to lose. No wonder he is willing to tell the villagers about the yam. It turns out that he has climbed up to a nobleman. If I had known that, I wouldn't have accepted that gift from someone else." .”

When Liu Meiniang's marriage was mentioned, Liu Jianghe also had a calculating face. It was his attention that he betrothed Liu Meiniang to Zhang Yuanwai.Now that Ning An has made it, it may be a good choice. "Mother, there may be room for the younger sister's matter."

Wang Guihua also had a little regret in her heart, how could that Zhang Yuanwai compare to Ruyilou. "Then Erlang, what do you think we should do?"

"Mother, why don't we..." Liu Jianghe whispered a few words in Wang Guihua's ear, and Wang Guihua nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, just do as you said. I'll talk to that dead girl later."

"Okay, mother, you can go." Liu Jianghe said.

The next day, Ning An woke up with a very heavy head.She looked around, she couldn't remember how she came back yesterday.At this moment, the door of the room was opened, and Ning Yu walked in with a basin of water. "Hey, you're awake, don't you have a headache? Come here and wash your face."

Ning An rubbed his eyebrows, "Thank you, Fourth Sister! How did I come back yesterday, Fourth Sister?"

Ning Yu handed the handkerchief to Ning An and said, "Guan Xu sent it back, what's the matter?
Ning An took the veil and wiped it on his face, "It's okay, I remember drinking with my brother-in-law, and I got drunk after a few drinks, I don't know if I did something rude." I was really careless, I don't know if she said anything that shouldn't be said, it seems that she should be more careful in the future.

"I don't know about that. You were already asleep when you came back yesterday. By the way, Goro, Manager Xu brought a lot of gifts yesterday, saying they were given by his boss. Mother asked me to ask you what to do with these things. "

"Okay, I'll take a look in a while." Ning An said.

After washing his face and getting dressed, Ning An and Ning Yu came to the main room together.Looking at the room full of things, Ning An was also dumbfounded. "Mother, are these all sent by Manager Xu?" Ning An asked.

"Yes, they said it was given by their boss. An'er, tell mother what's going on." Deng said.

"Mother, it's really nothing. It's just that the boy chatted with the owner of Ruyilou very well, so he became a brother of the opposite sex. Mother, Yibro is a good person. He is not only successful in his career, but also sincere. Boy likes to be with him very much. get along."

Mrs. Deng looked at Ning An worriedly, "An'er, tell mother the truth, you are sworn sworn brothers with him because you are interested in his power?"

"Mother, no. An'er really made friends with her brother-in-law. My son is not interested in things like power. My greatest wish is that our family will be together forever in peace."

In fact, Deng was just worried, afraid that Ning An would take a detour. "Mother knows, mother will never ask again. What about these things?"

Ning An rubbed the center of his brows again, his head still hurt a little. "Leave what you eat and use to the public, and share the rest with everyone. After all, it's the kindness of the brother-in-law."

"Okay, mother knows what to do. After drinking so much wine yesterday, my stomach must be uncomfortable. Mother left you porridge in the pot. Go and drink it." Deng looked at Ning An with a loving face Said.

"Thank you mother, An'er will go right away." Ning An said mischievously and then hopped out, looking like a cheerful rabbit.

Ning An has always been steady in front of outsiders, and only Deng can make him so relaxed.

After many days of rest, Ning An's physical strength has almost recovered and it's time to go back to the academy.

Ning'an's previous academy was called Qingshan Academy, which was a third-rate academy, but Shengzai Shuxiu was cheaper, so Deng sent him there.But Ning An remembered what the village chief said, and decided to visit Master Chen tomorrow.

Bailu Academy is the most famous academy in Pingyao County. Before the imperial examination system, all the students who went out from here were reused by the imperial court.After the imperial examination system, there are countless people who have obtained fame and fame from here, so those who come here to study are either children of aristocratic families or outstanding scholars from various places.

A disciple of the academy brought Ning An and the others to Master Chen's study, "Master is taking a nap, please take a moment for the three of you."

Ning An cupped his hands, "Thank you, brother, for letting me know."

After the three of them waited for a quarter of an hour, they did not see Master Chen's figure for a long time.Ning Hai got impatient and asked, "Why isn't this Mr. Chen coming? Do you want someone to inform you again?"

"No need dad, let's wait." Ning An said.

"Okay then, Dad will wait with you."

After another half an hour, Master Chen still didn't show up.Ning Hai obviously couldn't sit still any longer, he wanted to get up, but Deng grabbed him. "Old man, what are you doing? You can't sit still after just a while? Sit down for me."

"Aren't I uncomfortable sitting here? My mother, why don't you say Mr. Chen hasn't come? He won't go back on his word and don't want to accept my An'er."

"I don't know. I guess this Mr. Chen may have slept for a long time because he is old. Let's wait a little longer, and you sit down for me quickly." Deng said while pulling Ning Hai with his hand, trying to make him Sit down again.

"All right, all right, I'll just sit down, don't drag me!"
