Chapter 48:

Since the separation, the two-bedroom and three-bedroom lives have been much worse than before.
The property that was allocated to the hand shrank a lot from the original. All the property was in his own hands. Whether it was the second wife or the third wife, they began to pay attention to their calculations and were no longer as lavish as before. It's just that they have been spoiled by the Ning family a long time ago, and suddenly they changed their environment, and their living habits couldn't be changed for a while.
Ning Yanting’s subsidy is gone, and there is no mercy when taking things from the office. The second wife and the third wife remember the expenditure and income every day. When the end of the month is considered a deficit, it suddenly feels distressed. .
Ning Qing had less silver to buy jewelry than before, and even the cost of food and clothing was more than a bit lower than before. If she doesn't care about other things, but Young Master Zhou's attitude towards her suddenly cooled down, but it was the most panic for her.
Nothing is better than eating, drinking and jewellery. Young Master Zhou is her future guarantee. Even though the marriage has already been set, Ning Qing panicked for no reason. Even when she and Madam Zhou met by chance, Madam Zhou's attitude towards her seemed a lot colder, no more eager than before.
Ning Qing noticed this, but did not dare to tell her mother about it.
She knew that it was probably because of the separation of families.
She dared not tell the matter. Since the separation, not only the uncle's family had torn their faces with themselves, but the third uncle's family didn't even look good at them. There was no him, because the uncle mentioned her dowry that night when he said about the separation. For her dowry, her father went to find the uncle several times, and I don't know if it was because of this that he annoyed the uncle. The third uncle complained that her marriage was too expensive, and her father also blamed the third uncle for causing the uncle to be seriously injured and causing trouble, so both families couldn't see it.
Before the separation of the families, the two bedrooms and the three bedrooms all benefited from the big house. Now that they are separated, there is no interest related, and they are starting to look at each other uncomfortably.
The Ning family’s three brothers were originally known for their harmony and filial piety. Since the separation of the family, for some reason, there have been rumors outside. They pointed the spearhead of the family separation at their two bedrooms and three bedrooms. Those who are ungrateful and disrespectful to their elder brother, even when Ning Yanwen went out to socialize, the officials also looked at him strangely.
Ning Qing knew that she couldn't sit still, so she found another chance. She asked the maid to inquire about Madam Zhou's daily itinerary, found an opportunity, and met Madam Zhou in the jewelry shop.
When Madam Zhou saw her this time, her attitude was not as cold as before. Instead, she took the initiative to hold her hand, and even bought her a set of jewelry on the grounds of a daughter-in-law.
Ning Qing was ashamed and happy, excited in her heart, holding Madam Zhou's arm, and taking the opportunity to say a lot of good things, so that the smile on Madam Zhou's face never stopped. When it was time for dinner, the two also went to a well-known restaurant nearby for dinner.
Halfway through lunch, Mrs. Zhou smiled and asked: "Ms. Ning, the most famous in Beijing recently, have you heard of it."
The smile on Ning Qing's face stiffened, and then disappeared quickly, pretending to be pleasantly surprised: "Madam doesn't know something, Miss Ning is my cousin."
"Ms. Na Ning came into the eyes of Master Huizhen and got a comment from Master Huizhen." Madam Zhou said: "I heard that Miss Na Ning had a bad reputation, and I don't know what happened. Master Huizhen said yes. People with pure and kind temperaments can actually spread such rumors..."
As Mrs. Zhou said, she glanced at her intentionally or unintentionally.
Ning Qing's complexion became stiff, and a panic flashed in her heart, but very quickly, she suppressed the panic, pretending to be distressed: "When I heard about this, I was also surprised, sister Nuan. ... Sister Nuan is very kind to us. Before we lived together, she would give us any good things first. I don't know where this rumor came from. Madam said that, I thought..." After speaking, he stopped talking and didn't dare to continue speaking.
Madam Zhou hurriedly asked, "What did you think of?"
Ning Qing hesitated and said: "It doesn't seem to be a good thing to say, but my cousin doesn't seem to get along well with Sister Nuan..."
Ning Qing's face was embarrassed, and she didn't know if she should say anything afterwards, but looked at Madam Zhou embarrassedly.
Madam Zhou smiled kindly, reached out her hand to hold her, and patted comfortingly: "I know, you are a good one."
Ning Qing let out a long sigh of relief, and moved her hand to grab Madam Zhou's hand, and said: "Madam understands, I can't be more happy." Seeing Madam Zhou seemed to be very interested in Ning Nuan, she took the initiative to mention it. "Speaking of my sister Nuan, she is a few months older than me. I made a marriage appointment, but she has never heard from her. Now with Master Huizhen’s words, my uncle and uncle who want to come can rest assured... …"
"I just want to tell you about this." Madam Zhou said happily.
Ning Qing's face was stiff again.
She opened her mouth, looking at Madam Zhou, she couldn't react.
"Madam, you, you say..."
"You have made a kiss with my son, and I will not hide it from you." Madam Zhou said: "Your cousin has entered the eyes of Master Huizhen. Now the entire capital city is asking about Miss Ning's affairs. Not long ago, Shang Shu Madam also told me that her son and Ms. Ning are at the same age. You and Ms. Ning are sisters, so I will ask you, how is Ms. Ning?"
Ning Qing almost broke her teeth.
Why is Ning Nuan's life so good? !
Her reputation is so bad that she can meet Master Huizhen, and that's fine. Now even Madam Shangshu has taken a fancy to her? !
How could Ning Nuan take up all this good thing alone? !
Shang Shu is one level higher than the servant. She finally got married to Young Master Zhou. If Ning Nuan's marriage is also fixed, wouldn't it be better than her to marry? !
Ning Qing was almost vomiting and bleeding, but she looked up at Madam Zhou and saw the earnestness in Madam Zhou's eyes, but she couldn't say anything.
What else can she say? With Master Huizhen’s words ahead, people in the entire capital now think that Ning Nuan is good. Madam Zhou originally thought she was the one who corrupted her sister’s reputation first. If she said something bad about Ning Nuan, wouldn’t she let Madam Zhou again Look down on her?
Ning Qing could only pick up some kind words and say a few words. Seeing the more satisfied look in Madam Zhou's eyes, she could only swallow her dissatisfaction back into her stomach, and couldn't eat the half meal that was connected.
After separation from Madam Zhou, she returned home and smashed the tea set in the room to pieces.
Not only Madam Shang Shu, Ning Nuan has become a sweet potato since the words of Master Huizhen came out. All the wives in Beijing with similar family backgrounds and sons of the right age began to inquire about Ning Nuan's name. Even Jiang Yunlan received several famous posts, and the names of all those who inquired about Ning Nuan were also presented to Chu Fei's desk.
Chu Fei watched them one by one, but one by one was picky.
"This person is so ugly, and Miss Ning is so beautiful, where can he climb?"
"That's not okay, it's just the son of a little servant, who dares to miss Miss Ning, who Master Huizhen has said kindly in person?"
"This is not good, son of general? What's wrong with son of general? There are several generals in the court. There are no eyes on the battlefield. If he died early, wouldn't Miss Ning be a widow?"
"If it doesn't? It doesn't work if it doesn't. Anyone who has come down from the battlefield has not been injured. Maybe there is something hidden?"
"It's not good either. I'm not in good health and I died early."
"This man is just a dude who can accomplish nothing. Girl Ning is very intelligent, and he doesn't even deserve to give Girl Ning shoes."
"..."
There were many people who inquired about Ning Nuan, and the names of those people were thickly stacked, but they were all crossed out by Chu Fei with an excuse.
While he was picky, Xiao Si rolled his eyes secretly.
The young man thought to himself: Their prince said with a high-sounding voice, and said that he would no longer be close to Girl Ning in the future, but it's better now, even Girl Ning's marriage has begun to interfere. It's fine. If you really wanted to find someone for Miss Ning, that would be a good thing, but so many people have been rejected by their princes. What is it? !
How can this be to find a suitable candidate for Miss Ning? This is obviously to find fault for the rival!
But when Chu Fei looked towards him, the young man immediately changed into a dogleg look, and said in kind: "The king said that."
Chu Fei was satisfied.
Xiao Si asked again: "Then I don't know what the right candidate looks like in the Lord's heart?"
Chu Fei choked.
He subconsciously stared at the young man, but he remembered in time that he had made up his mind before and said that he would not disturb Girl Ning again.
Chu Fei struggled for a while before saying: "At least it can't be worse than this king."
The young man nodded repeatedly: "There are not many people in this capital who can be more powerful than the prince. Is there a suitable candidate in the prince's heart?"
Chu Fei choked again.
If it had nothing to do with Ning Nuan, he would be able to select a suitable candidate fairly, but if it had something to do with Ning Nuan, Chu Fei would see that no one was right. He raised his nose and raised his eyes, even to his own eyes.
Realizing this made him even more entangled.
The young man glanced at him, and pretended to say inadvertently: "In this capital, where can I find someone more powerful than the prince, the prince was very eager to girl Ning before, it is better to marry girl Ning back, prince Girl Ning, she is a talented girl, she is a natural match, and there is no more suitable person than the prince..."
Before he finished speaking, Chu Fei knocked his head first.
"Stupid slave." Chu Fei scolded, "This king has said it before, so he is not allowed to mention this matter again."
The young man is wronged: "If the prince really has no thoughts about Ms. Ning, why bother about Ms. Ning's affairs. The prince is not related to Ms. Ning. Now even the prince is not coming to see the prince. On the contrary, the prince is very hot... I'm so concerned about Miss Ning's marriage, but I'm even more concerned about Master Ning!"
Chu Fei gave a cold smile.
He thought to himself: How can he compare with Ning Yanting?
His predecessor was A Nuan's husband!
