Chapter 163 The troubles of happiness

Du Jinning sent the Guan brothers and sisters back, and saw Du Fangling standing at the kitchen door waving to her.Before she could get close, Du Fangling explained Zhang's reason for coming, then stared into her eyes and asked: "Brother Ning, what do you say about this matter?"

Without even thinking about it, Du Jinning said, "Don't pay attention to her."

Du Fangling returned to the kitchen proudly, and raised her chin at Chen Shi and Du Fangfei.

Du Fangfei was very clear about the second sister's temper, and she didn't care. She just looked at Du Jinning worriedly and sighed.

Among the three sisters, Du Fangling is the one with the most ideas and the most outspoken personality; Du Fangfei knows it well, but she is gentle and doesn't like to get serious with others.As the eldest of the sisters, she does a lot and talks a little. Chen and Du Jinning have the final say on all matters in the family, and she does not express her opinion.Du Jinning found it very strange that he showed disapproval at this moment.

"Sister, just now the young master of the Guan family asked me for a script. The script I wrote yesterday hasn't been bound yet. Go and sew it for me." Du Jinning said.

"Okay, come." Du Fangfei used to grind soy milk, but was taken over by Mrs. Chen just now, and now the executioner happened to be empty, so she followed Du Jinning to the room.

After entering the room, Du Jinning asked, "Eldest sister, you seem to disapprove of the elder aunt's matter?"

Du Fangfei stared at Du Jinning for a while, looked outside the door, and asked in a low voice: "Brother Ning, you are so smart, you shouldn't mistake yourself as a man or a woman, right?"

Du Jinning laughed suddenly: "How could I make a mistake? I'm a girl like you. Now it's just a matter of self-interest."

Du Fangfei looked at Du Jinning: "But why do I feel that you seem to think of yourself as a boy? Mother is also confused. She has been lying for ten years, and she believes it when she says it. Treat yourself like a boy."

Du Jinning blinked, but did not speak.

She herself comes from modern times, where men and women are equal, and girls can go to school, work, and run around like boys, so women disguised as men are just right for her. She doesn't want to be like ancient women. Locked up at home, get married when they grow up, and spend their whole life around their husband and children. If they want to be financially independent, they will not be able to achieve financial independence, and they will depend on others for the rest of their lives.She was not such a person in her previous life, and she is not willing to be such a person in this life.

As for Mrs. Chen, she actually misled her - she is so capable, Mrs. Chen unconsciously became dependent on her, and subconsciously regarded her as the backbone of the family. This is normal.

But it's not easy for her to tell Du Fangfei these words.

Du Fangfei saw that she was silent, and said again: "Ning... Sister Ning, you will be 11 years old tomorrow, and you will be married in two years. Have you thought about how you will live in the future? If you continue like this, what will happen? Got it?"

Speaking of this, her eyes turned red: "I know, when you brought us out when your uncle was breaking up, you didn't want my grandmother to ruin me by marriage, and you didn't want your second sister to be killed. The second uncle sold it. You are all for our good. But what will you do in the future? You have come to this point without knowing it, and you have no way to end it. It is not easy to restore women's clothing. "

"Sister." Seeing Du Fangfei crying, Du Jinning quickly took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it over, "You don't have to worry about me, I have my own way."

Thinking that Du Fangfei became emotional only after Mrs. Zhang came, Du Jinning asked suspiciously: "Sister, if you have any thoughts, just tell me."

Du Fangfei wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, and raised her eyes: "Auntie came to ask for peace, I don't think we can make too much trouble with them. In the future, you will resume your women's clothing, and uncle and cousin will help you talk , it will always be better. Otherwise, the master of the academy, I don’t know what will happen to you.”

Thinking of this, Du Fangfei sometimes couldn't sleep.

When mentioning Mrs. Zhang and the others, Du Jinning smiled sarcastically: "Do you think that with the temperament of uncle and auntie, if something happens to me, they will come forward to help me; or should they hide away for fear of getting involved?"

Du Fangfei remained silent, and said for a long time, "What if they can help you with a sentence or two?"

"No need. Even if they can help, they can't help much." Du Jinning shook his head, "Don't worry, I know how to do it." Then he repeated what he had said to Mrs. Chen.

Hearing that Du Jinning was going to take Chen Shi away from here and never come back again, Du Fangfei's eyes widened: "You, what are you talking about?"

She grabbed Du Jinning: "No, you can't do this. If you want to do this, how can we rest assured?" She shook her head again and again, tears dripping on the skirt of her clothes, "No, no, I can't let you do this. How about , I'm not married anymore, I'll go with you."

"What nonsense, if we don't settle you down well, how can we leave with peace of mind? Besides, with such a group of people, even if I want to change my appearance, it will be easy to be recognized, right? The fewer people, the better."

Du Jinning patted Du Fangfei's hand: "Don't worry, it's still early. Maybe there will be a turning point in the future, and maybe we don't have to leave. You, don't think so much. Take [-] steps back and say, even if you get there It’s nothing. As long as we have money in our hands, we can go elsewhere to buy fields and pavements. Wouldn’t our life be the same? After a few years, everyone will forget about me, and I’ll call someone to pick you up for a reunion.”

Du Fangfei looked at Du Jinning and didn't speak for a long time.After a long time, Fang bit his lip and nodded: "Okay, big sister knows."

Du Jinning always felt that her expression was wrong, and reminded: "Sister, don't do anything stupid. You also said that I brought you out for your own good. If you have a bad life, wouldn't it be a waste of my time?" Heart? Don't think about anything now, wait for your mother to find you a good family, and marry them safely. Only when you are all living well, can my mother and I leave at ease. Otherwise, wouldn't I be five years and ten years old? I have to stay here all year to support you?"

Du Fangfei lowered her eyelids and nodded; "Don't worry, Eldest Sister won't do anything stupid."

Looking at the back of Du Fangfei going out, Du Jinning rubbed the center of his brows tiredly and sighed long.

In her previous life, she was an orphan. She fed the whole family by herself.This generation has a family. Although there will be such and such things, the feeling of being cared for is still very heartwarming. This is probably the trouble of happiness.

Thinking of this, she shook her head with a smile on her face.

"Brother Ning, Young Master Qi is here." Chen's voice came from outside.

Du Jinning raised his eyebrows, went out to take a look, and saw a young man with clear features like an ink painting standing at the gate of the courtyard, who else could it be if it wasn't Qi Muyuan?

"Why are you here?" Du Jinning looked at the sky.Could it be that today is an auspicious day?One by two ran to her house.
