Longevity: Beginning from Becoming a Clan Leader

Second sister.

Third sister.

Fourth sister.

She is the ninth among the sisters.

These sisters, like her, are all concubines, only the eldest sister is a legitimate daughter.

But.

They are all concubines, but these people like to mock her all day long.

Maybe for them, mocking themselves, who were once so brilliant, can satisfy their self-desires?

Ning Hongye's eyes flashed with contempt.

On the opposite side, the sisters who broke in were still chattering.

However, they did not mock Ning Hongye openly, or let servants and maids bully each other.

It's not that they don't want to do so.

But it's the rule of the big family.

Especially for a family like the Ning family with a tradition of intermarriage.

The education of women in the family is very strict.

First of all, a daughter who is married is like water spilled out.

You can't be partial to the Ning family just because you are born in the Ning family. That will only make the families afraid of the Ning family's daughters.

Then, it is the education of the women in the family. Flower arrangement, tea art, chess, calligraphy and painting, as well as personnel management and matters in the back house are all taught. Even if they are not proficient, they must understand.

Such a Ning family girl can be regarded as a talent after marrying into other families, which greatly improves the popularity of Ning family girls.

Finally, it is the education of their thoughts. The annotated version of "Female Commandments" and "Neo-Confucianism" passed down from the Xia Kingdom is used. As for what is emphasized, it is not mentioned, it is really a bit distorted.

These three points are the implementation of the Ning family's marriage policy.

The Ning family girls trained in this way are really invincible in marriage. In the past two hundred years, they have won countless benefits for the Ning family.

Let them sit firmly in the position of the three major families in the county, as stable as Mount Tai.

However, the degree of oppression and distortion of their thoughts has become more and more terrifying in the past hundred years, so that even a smart woman like Ning Hongye is eager to get married and escape from the Ning family.

So.

At least one of these sisters is right. Getting married is really good news for her.

"The eldest sister is going to marry the son of the leader of the Feixue Sect. Although the Feixue Sect is not as powerful as our Ning family, it also has several skin and flesh realm warriors, and has a lot of real estate and manpower."

"The most important thing is that I heard that the son of the leader is a famous young talent and is very gentle."

"As sisters, we sincerely wish that the eldest sister can find a good match."

When saying this, the faces of several people were very natural, and there was no awkwardness.

This is also a product of the Ning family environment. Everyone has been scheming since childhood, and keeping calm is just a basic operation.

"By the way, there is you, the ninth sister. You are the only one who has determined the future husband now besides the eldest sister." The second sister said with a smile.

"I just heard from outsiders that he seems to be from a rural area. I am a little worried about what my ninth sister will do when she returns to her parents' home in the future."

"Don't worry about that. She can come back by taking the caravan's mule cart."

"Rural areas, are the people there a little bit vulgar...ah, I'm not talking about my ninth sister, I'm just worried about her."

"..."

The sisters talked to each other, seemingly caring about her, but actually playing tricks.

What a trick.

Ning Hongye remained silent from beginning to end.

In fact, if she showed weakness, they would be more satisfied and leave earlier, but she didn't want to.

So she just kept silent.

However.

It's not without benefits.

At least her group of "good sisters" always bring her some news that she can't know every time they come.

Like this time.

Has my husband been settled?

The only one who was decided with the eldest sister...

Hehe...

"By the way, the sisters have said so much but didn't tell the ninth sister what the man's name is."

"Yes, what's his name? I forgot."

"I forgot too."

"Oh, he's from the town, I didn't remember it carefully, anyway, he can't come many times."

"Oh, second sister, how can you say that."

"Sorry, I'm sorry."

"I remember, his name is Chen Nuo! He's from Chenjiazhuang, and he seems to be the patriarch? It seems that he has been doing business in a town recently, so he was included in the candidates for marriage."

"Oh, yes, his name is Chen Nuo."

"Chen Nuo, it sounds good."

"So what, how can it be better than the name of the young master of Feixuemen, Jiang Yuyang."

"..."

Ignoring their chattering.

Ning Hongye silently recited Chen Nuo's name.

"Chen Nuo... Chen Nuo... my husband...?"

...

At this time.

Chen Nuo, who returned to the manor, did not know what the Ning family had decided at this moment.

He was sitting in the ancestral hall with his great uncle, looking at Chen Le kneeling on the ground.

Chen Le's hands were tied, and he knelt on the ground in a somewhat embarrassed manner, but his face showed a completely different expression.

"Hey! Old man! Let me go!"

"I just want money, really just money. Give me money, I don't want anything else, Chen Nuo, everything in the village is yours."

"At worst, I will give you the inheritance after he leaves. I just beg you to give me 100 taels of silver, right now!"

"..."

There was a mixture of urgency and arrogance in his voice.

Chen Nuo sat at the top, sipping tea gently.

The uncle sitting next to him was trembling slightly.

He had imagined many scenes of his grandson coming back, but never thought of such a scene.

He never thought that his grandson would say such words.

Unfilial?

Unfilial!

Stupid?

Stupid!

He is completely different from his heroic and courageous son.

Oh my God, why is it like this...

"Chen Le, don't you know you are wrong?"

The uncle asked in a steady voice.

Chen Le looked at Chen Nuo fearfully, and saw that he didn't speak, but his grandfather spoke.

The familiar feeling came back again.

"I was wrong! I know I was wrong!"

"The family has been passed to Chen Nuo, I shouldn't have said those words."

"But some of what I said is true, I have the right of inheritance, really, grandpa, after all, I have your blood, this is the fact!"

"Why did you choose the clan leader without my consent? Now you give me some money, one hundred taels, not much, you have made a fortune, just one hundred taels, I will write a letter of giving up inheritance."

"Wouldn't the procedure for the position of clan leader be reasonable and legal?"

"Right?"

Chen Nuo put down the teacup.

Looked at this guy in surprise.

I didn't expect this guy to be able to talk like this, he is simply eloquent.

It seems that he is not so useless. At least when he was a licking dog, he was wise and qualified to be a medium-sized licking dog.

Haha, he is quite capable!

But.

The uncle obviously didn't think so.

Pop!

The water cup burst.

The boiling tea splashed.
