Chapter 10:

Ning Yanting's life has not been very good recently.
Mother Ning said that he would only give him forty taels, not a penny. After thinking about it, he could only take out the valuable things in the house. Fortunately, what the Ning family said is also a big family. Ning mother was also very generous to him in the past, and the things he bought for him were all good, although the money he got after going out was a lot lower than the original price. It also eased his urgent need.
It's just that there is still no way to completely solve his problem.
He consciously owed his daughter too much, and Ning Nuan didn’t need to say that he brought her something every time he returned home, either it was a collection of books newly published by a gentleman, or it was a piece of jewelry, or it was delicious in a restaurant. dessert. He wanted to make up for what he owed his daughter before, and he didn't have to Ning Nuanqiu. As long as he showed a hesitant look, Ning Yanting was immediately taken away by his father's love and nodded hurriedly.
There is Ningnuan, and naturally there is also Ninglang. Ning Nuan is more considerate. He always refuses and says a few words of concern, but Ning Lang is different. Ning Lang is very rude, and he asks for what he wants. Fortunately, they are all worthless. For gadgets, Ning Yanting agreed very happily.
What bothered him most was the pressure from his two younger brothers.
Perhaps it was because there was no money in his pocket that made him start to care about money. The two younger brothers brought the young man over and asked him to pay for all kinds of wine and food. He felt very heartbroken every time. If he came back to tell him which antique he liked and which thing he liked, Ning Yanting would even want it. Dripping blood.
After living for so many years, he still cared so much about silver for the first time.
Ning Yanting couldn't help sighing when he paid several bills for his younger brother after several decorations in the house, and even bought things for a pair of children.
Ning Nuan quickly noticed it, and said intimately: "Mother gives my father 80 taels a month. These dollars are only enough for my dad's usual expenses. My dad often buys things for his daughter recently. It must be that the money is not enough?"
"How come." Ning Yanting immediately retorted: "A Nuan, don't worry about this. If Dad is really short of money, he will naturally ask your mother for it. Look, when did Dad worry about this?"
Ning Nuan thought: Mother? My mother won't even give you a copper plate.
She didn't show it on her face, but went back to the house and took out her private house. All the silver was put in a wooden box and handed over to Ning Yanting.
"If Daddy is short of money to spend, just spend this." Ning Nuan said, "Daddy, don't buy me jewelry anymore. My mother bought me a lot recently. I don't lack jewelry. Daddy's silver is still needed. The place is good."
This is my daughter's private room!
Ning Yanting took the hot hand and hurriedly stuffed it back: "Daddy, how can you get your money, A Nuan, take it back quickly, how can Daddy make you worry about this."
"But Daddy..."
"Father is really not short of silver!"
The wooden box is not heavy, and the sound of silver coins colliding inside can be heard between movements. Although he didn't know much, Ning Yanting's eyes became hot when he thought that this was his daughter's private house. He was so touched that Ning Nuan would stubbornly push the wooden box into his hand for fear that he would be a step slower. Ning Yanting refused, and quickly walked away as if ran away. Before leaving, he did not forget to bring her a collection of poems from Mr. Wangshan.
It was just for Mr. Wangshan's collection of poems, he let the young man secretly use it as an antique paperweight in the study.
He absolutely cannot ask for his daughter's money, but there are few things in his house, and his wife will notice it within a few days. Mother Ning didn't say anything, but Ning Yanting had a guilty conscience. During this period, his wife's temper became a lot more irritable, and he didn't even have the courage to look directly at his wife.
Alas, this life is too difficult.
...
There were few things in the room, and Ning Mu naturally noticed it. In front of Ning Yanting, she didn't say anything, but behind her back she was clenching her teeth to keep accounts. The expression was fierce and even Ning Nuan was flustered. Panicked.
"Your dad, idiot, those two families are trying to get money out of his pocket all day long. He hasn't even reacted to it yet. The Patriarch of the Tang Ning family actually has to make a living by changing the seller's stuff. A joke!" Mother Ning said bitterly, "I knew he had such a bad brain, I shouldn't have married him in the first place."
Ning Nuan was shocked and looked at her with a look of uncertainty.
Ning Mu also knew that she had said too much. She thought of these words in her heart. A Nuan is still so young, what did she say in front of A Nuan? Ning's mother was deeply regretful, and after finishing her account, she took a few sheets of paper from the side and handed them to Ning Nuan.
"Mother?" Ning Nuan took it curiously, "What is this?"
Mother Ning said with a smile: "A Nuan, look, among these young men, do you like anything?"
Ning Nuan paused, and immediately understood what these pieces of paper meant. Her cheeks were suddenly stained with thin red, and she gave Ning mother a shy look, and she still unfolded the pieces of paper.
Ning Nuan couldn't help but said, "Mother, I said it, I'm not in a hurry to get married, let's talk about it..."
Besides, she has a bad reputation now, even if she wants to marry, she can't marry a good family.
"Mother knows, but don't you have to prepare first?" Mother Ning said, "You are just right, so it's time to look at your partner. Let's not marry a big family. The bigger this is, the more things will be pickled. Look at your father, the son of Ning, who has a bright future and a bright future. Only the family knows what is behind this. The mother does not ask you to be rich, as long as your life is happy and successful. Those high in Beijing We can't afford to climb high, if you lower your eyes, you always have an idea, and your mother will prepare a dowry for you. If you marry, the whole family will listen to you. Who dares to make you wronged?"
Mother Ning said so well, she had planned everything.
Ning Nuan nodded silently, but couldn't help but read all the information on the paper.
Just as Ning Mu said, she was really not looking for a big family. Compared with the Ning family, the candidates on the paper were indeed low in rank, and only a piece of paper could not tell.
"Mother, find someone capable of A Nuan, even if he is the lower one, as long as he is up for the better, he can still climb to the higher position. That way, even if something happens, he can still protect you. It's like your father, Alas..." Mother Ning said, shaking her head again and sighed.
Now Ning Yanting is a negative teaching material in her mouth, Ning Mu can't wait to tell her face, so that she must not be fooled by Ning Yanting's appearance like herself.
Ning Nuan felt funny in her heart.
She read the message on the paper from beginning to end, and then carefully folded the pieces of paper.
As he was talking, someone came outside, the maid beside the old lady.
The maid saw Ning Mu, blessed Fu Li, and said with joy: "Madame, the old lady calls you and the young lady to go over."
Mother Ning closed the ledger and said in amazement: "What good has happened to the old lady who is still thinking of us?"
The maid said: "It's the second lady, someone is coming to propose to the second lady!"
