Everyone But Me is Reborn

He gave his son pocket money again, and after the others had left, Ning Yanting ordered his only silver tael and sighed quietly.

In addition to making up for his two younger brothers and buying things for his children, he recently had a new worry about how to raise a dowry for Ning Qing.

He shouldn't have to worry about this matter, but he has already promised Ning Yanwen, he has always been a man who will do what he says, even if he is taught by his wife, he is still thinking about this matter in his heart.

It's just that the dowry is not an ordinary gadget, he can take it out as soon as he can, and it is not an ordinary gadget that Ning Yanwen can ask him. If you have the support of your wife, you can take it out easily with his wife’s huge net worth, but those are A Nuan...

Ning Yanting felt a little sour when he thought of his daughter.

Of course he listened to what his wife said.

It is precisely because of this that he now sees the man in the house beaming over Ning Qing's marriage, and he can't help but think of A Nuan and what his wife said to him.

If it weren’t for Ning Qing, A’Nuan’s reputation would not be bad. A’Nuan’s reputation is still a few months older than Ning Qing. She is the eldest daughter of the Ning House, and the conditions are even better than Ning Qing’s. If A’Nuan’s reputation is not bad , Marrying must be better than Ning Qing, but now...

Ning Yanting sighed in his heart.

Nowadays, there is no one who can satisfy him. His Nuan is so good, how can he marry such a person? Even he can't look down on him, and A Nuan is always arrogant, so how can he look up?

Although he also loved his niece, after all, the daughter was born. When he thought of his daughter's future being returned by Ning Qing, he still had to find a way to prepare a dowry for Ning Qing. Ning Yanting felt uncomfortable.

It's just that he has already agreed to Ning Yanwen, and there is absolutely no remorse for what he has promised. He could only apologize to A Nuan in his heart, thinking about compensating her a lot in the future, and soon he began to worry about how to raise the huge dowry.

Ning Yanting was thinking about things in his heart, and it wasn't until a maid knocked on the door outside that he finally recovered.

"Master, the old lady is calling you over."

When the old woman called him for something, Ning Yanting hurriedly stood up, he responded and hurriedly went outside. Following the maid to the old lady's yard, he stepped into the door and looked around the room for a while. Seeing that there was no one else here, he breathed a sigh of relief and completely relaxed.

I don't know why, he is actually a little afraid that his brother will appear here.

Ning Yanting raised his smiling face and walked towards the old lady: "Mother, I heard you called me?"

"Sit down." The old lady pointed to the place next to her.

When he sat down, the old lady said, "Qing'er has already been engaged to the marriage, and you already know about it. She is going to marry the son of Zhou Da, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and you know what Zhou family is. A rare condition."

"I know this naturally." Ning Yanting said with a smile on his face: "I have already congratulated my second brother. Ning Qing must have done a lot to find such a good family."

The old lady smiled: "Qing'er is also excellent, so that Young Master Zhou can admire it."

Ning Yanting nodded: "That's natural."

"Qing'er is about to get married. As an uncle, do you have to express yourself?" The old lady pointedly said: "In our Ning family, she is still the first daughter to marry. It's from Zhou's family, but she must not be treated badly. If Qing'er gets married, the remaining girl can find a good family."

Ning Yanting then nodded: "Son knows that my mother will definitely not treat Ning Qing badly. The mother is in charge of family affairs, and everything is up to her."

Hearing what he said, the old lady took a look at him, then quickly looked away, showing her face.

The eldest son always looks at his face on weekdays. Today, she said so obviously, why don’t you understand what she means?

Ning Yanting didn't understand, so she could only point it out directly: "On weekdays, your second brother has also helped you a lot. Now that he is in trouble, if you can help, you should also reach out to help him. I always ask your brothers to help each other out on weekdays, have you forgotten?"

Ning Yanting panicked and hurriedly said: "Of course my son didn't forget."

He paused, and then wondered: "What kind of trouble did the second brother have? Did you ask my mother directly?"

"It's not Qinger's thing yet."

"Ning Qing? Didn't she just agree to someone else? Or the Zhou family, how can there be trouble when the second brother is most happy now?"

The old lady increased her voice and said, "Only you have the highest official position in our family. Although Yanwen is upright, his salary is lower than you, and he raises so many people. In terms of money, I can't get enough money..."

Ning Yanting understood.

This is for him to help prepare Ning Qing's dowry.

Ning Yanting nodded and said, "Mother, don't worry, the second brother has already told me about this, and my third brother and I are both Ning Qing's uncles, and we will naturally save her face when the time comes."

The old lady is even more uneasy: "The third child’s salary is lower and he has to raise so many people. Why don’t you be more considerate of him? Your two younger brothers have helped you a lot on weekdays. Now they are facing difficulties. You just leave it alone?"

"Mother, what are you talking about, do I look like that? The second and third brothers are good, I always remember, on weekdays, what they need, I try to agree to it, how come you In his mouth, I am such a cold-blooded person?" Ning Yanting felt wronged.

During the recent period, his life has been getting worse and worse. The two younger brothers and him stretched out their hands most happily, and his wife broke his finances. Don’t look at him going out now, but outsiders still see him as the The Zhongming Officer is also the head of the Ning family, but only he himself knows that everything in his house is almost treated. In the end, most of the money that was bought went into the pockets of the two younger brothers.

If it is said that he is most sorry for anyone, there is no sorry for the two younger brothers.

But suddenly being accused by his most respected mother, Ning Yanting only felt that his heart was more bitter than eating Huanglian.

The old woman glanced at him and said softly, "I know, you are the most filial. Do you remember that when you were young, in the twelfth winter of the winter, you fell into the lake, and it was Yanwen who jumped into the lake. Rescue you. He was shorter than you at that time. In the end he had a high fever and almost went away. He tried his best to save you. Although you are brothers, you must remember this kindness."

"I remember, of course I do."

"Mother is not trying to force you, this is that you are brothers, if you don't support each other, who else can help you? Isn't it?"

Ning Yanting nodded in sympathy.

Over the years, he has always remembered the kindness of his second brother, and he has not forgotten it now, and he has always been thinking about the brothers' need to support each other so that the relationship with the two younger brothers is so good. The relationship between the three Ning family brothers is strong and solid, and they are each other's strong backing. If something happens, everyone must work together, so the Ning family is getting stronger and stronger.

The old lady smiled: "Yanwen didn't want to tell you, but my mother felt distressed when she saw it. You also know that although Yanwen is fighting, there are some things that are not as good as you. If it hadn't been because of saving you. After getting the root of the disease, he later handed over his husband to you. He has always been wise. He may have a higher official position than you now, so he won’t be stumbling now."

Ning Yanting's eyes were full of tears.

Yes, the second brother has always been excellent. Since he was a child, he has been praised by his mother everywhere. In comparison, although he has a better academic performance, it is all because of a good husband. If the second brother is also taught by the husband, he will definitely Much better than he is now.

He delayed his brother!

"Mother, please relax. Your second brother is very kind to me. How can I forget these things? Don't worry too much. Your second brother has already told me about Ning Qing's dowry, just as you always do. That said, now my second brother gives me everything. When the second brother is in trouble, I also want to help him. I will definitely take care of Ning Qing."

Although the words were not dead, but in connection with his previous actions, the old lady's face also showed satisfaction.

"In that case, there is one more thing, I want to talk to you."

"Mother, you said."

"Before Qinger decided to kiss her, Jiang Yunlan went to her yard to make a fuss and swept away all her jewelry. Do you remember this incident?"

Ning Yanting's expression became stiff, and he nodded hesitantly: "Mother, I didn't take them all. Yun Lan told me that she only took half of them."

The old lady frowned: "If it had been before, this matter would have passed, but now Qing'er's identity is different. She will marry to Zhou's family in the future. If she doesn't even have any good jewelry on her head, how can it be seen? Isn't it a joke?"

"Mother, what do you mean..."

"In the final analysis, this matter was also caused by Jiang Yunlan. You ask her to return the jewelry, and you will compensate her. Qing'er will lose her breath and will naturally forgive you."

"This..." Ning Yanting hesitated, always feeling something was wrong.

"What? Can't it?"

"No, mother, I didn't mean that, but..." Ning Yanting said hesitantly: "It's just that Yunlan has sold all the jewelry..."

Even if I want to pay it back, I still won't come out.

The old lady's eyes widened: "What?! How dare she?!"

Ning Yanting, dare not say a word.

The old lady's chest fluctuated violently before she said angrily: "Those are Qing'er's jewelry. She, the eldest aunt, was embarrassed to **** it away, and even sold it. How could we Ning family sorry for her? Do this kind of thing?!"

Ning Yanting said quickly: "Mother, you calm down, I will go back and talk to her."

"You?" The old lady squinted at him and said: "You dare to say something serious in front of her?"

Ning Yanting: "..."

"Fine, since she has sold them all, there is no way." The old lady calmed her breath and said lightly: "It's just that Qing'er will marry the Zhou family in the future. It represents our Ning family. If she doesn't carry any valuables on her head On the contrary, the jewelry made people laugh. Although the jewelry is sold, Qing'er can't marry in an empty head, don't you think?"

"What the mother said is."

"Since this is Jiang Yunlan, she has to return Qing'er's jewelry. If it is sold, then buy it back. When Qing'er gets married, she must not be wronged."

Ning Yanting opened his mouth, still wanting to say something, but the old lady looked at it, and suddenly made him forget everything he wanted to say, so he nodded and agreed.

Until he walked outside and was blown by the night wind, he came back to his senses.

This mother meant that he wanted him to make up Ning Qing's jewelry?

But how can he have so much silver?

Just the phoenix butterfly gold hairpin would cost thirty taels of silver, not to mention that the pile of jewellery is very valuable. No matter how many things he has in his house, he won’t come back with so many jewellery.

But he has promised his mother, what else can he do?

Not to mention that he also promised his second brother to give Ning Qing a dowry.

The night breeze was very cold, and Ning Yanting's heart sank little by little.

...

Ning Yanting didn't tell anyone about the jewelry.

Before going to bed, he saw his wife. He opened his mouth and wanted to talk about the matter with Ning Mu, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed back again.

Needless to say, Ning Mu would never agree.

With A Nuan's affairs ahead, even if the sky in the second room fell, Ning's eyelids would not move, maybe she would clap her hands and applaud. What's more, the things in Ning's mother's hands are still for Ning Nuan, and Ning Yanting can't do anything like stealing her daughter's dowry to her niece.

He sighed, looked at Mother Ning for a long while he wanted to speak, and then turned around, his back was very heavy.

Mother Ning rolled her eyes behind him.

She had long heard about the old lady calling people away. Every time Ning Yanting went to the old lady’s place, she was coaxed around. There was no need to hang radishes in front of her. The donkey started to run by itself, very obedient. .

Let alone what happened recently, it must be about Ning Qing.

Ning Mu has lived in the Ning family for decades, and has a thorough understanding of the personality and ideas of everyone in the Ning family.

Not long ago, Ning Yanwen had come to beg Ning Yanting, and wanted to come to the old lady to call people there, not for this matter. Ning Qing's girl had a small belly and chicken intestines. She took away her jewelry. If she said she didn't hold her grudge, it must be fake. It was just that she hadn't moved for so long, so she went directly to the old lady to complain.

Mother Ning snorted, her eyes flowed, her gaze fell on the table where the front vase was missing.

"Did there still be a vase before? Why did it suddenly disappear?"

Ning Yanting became stiff, and said anxiously: "Perhaps it was put away. This vase is also easy to break if it is bumped."

Fearing that Ning's mother would have to say something, he quickly broke the subject and took her to the back room: "It's not early, let's go to sleep..."

...

Before Ning Yanting found a way to raise money, Ning Lang had the time to not go to the academy, but he got up early in the morning and went out eagerly.

In contrast, Ning Mu wondered: "I haven't seen him so diligent on weekdays, and today he doesn't have to go to school, and he has no money in his pocket, so what do you do to go out in such a hurry?"

Ning Nuan knew that he was out for an appointment.

It's just that Ning Lang has promised before, and she can no longer tell Ning Mu about this matter, so she can only vaguely say: "Maybe it was an appointment with a friend."

"Friend?" Mother Ning was surprised: "He doesn't have a penny in his pocket, so who else wants to associate with him?"

Ning Nuan said again: "Maybe I met some new friends."

Mother Ning had always listened to her and heard her say so, without any doubt, her attention was quickly drawn to others.

On the other side, Ning Lang inquired all the way and finally found King An's mansion.

He was afraid that the young man would file a lawsuit, for fear that Ning Mu knew that he had violated Chu Fei's relationship with Chu Fei, so she didn't bring anything with her, so she knocked on the door of Prince An's Mansion empty-handed.

Fortunately, the steward of the palace had long been told, there may be guests visiting today, so I made preparations early and saw that Ning Lang was here and hurriedly welcomed him in.

Ning Lang really opened his eyes when he got inside.

He only looked at it from the outside, and felt that Prince An's Mansion was very magnificent. It was not until he entered inside that he finally understood what the royal relatives were. The palace in the palace is imitated the pattern of Jiangnan, the most graceful, rockery pavilions are readily available, and even the koi with wagging tails in the pond has turned its worth in Ning Lang's eyes.

He only thinks that everything is good in Anyang Mansion. The fish is not an ordinary fish, and the flower is not an ordinary flower. Even a small stone on the ground is not an ordinary stone.

When he sat down in front of Wang An, Ning Lang was already staying.

"What kind of fairy place is this, prince, do I look like a hillbilly with no knowledge?" Ning Lang touched his face and said cheerfully, "I thought my house was luxurious enough. Now, I didn’t expect it, the prince’s house is so impressive. Before that, I was really short-sighted."

Chu Fei nodded slightly: "It's not very high."

Ning Lang: "..."

"Our prince, this house, was specially rewarded by the emperor. The prince is the emperor’s younger brother, and the emperor loves the prince the most. Every palace is chosen by the House of Internal Affairs. Only our prince, not only did he personally pick it, but also this The courtyard is made according to the prince’s preferences."

Ning Lang said in the same way: "Yes, my sister likes it too. She has to do everything herself, and she is reluctant to ask for it when someone else does it."

Chu Fei looked at him.

I haven't known Ning Lang for a long time, but he has mentioned his sister countless times, and the younger sister is always the eldest and shorter. Chu Fei can't help but become curious.

"This king often hears you mention your sister. What is so good about your sister that you miss you so much?"

"Does the prince have a sister?"

Chu Fei shook his head.

"Of course the prince doesn't understand." Ning Lang said happily, "My sister is different from other brothers. My sister has been very good since she was a child. She is smart. Lord, don't think I am stupid. My sister is very good at school. Even her husband has praised her a lot. If she were a man, I am afraid she would be the champion in high school now."

Chu Fei was curious: "Really?"

"I don't know so. My sister's literary talent is good, she likes the poems of Mr. Pillow Liu the most, but I see, she also writes better poems than Mr. Pillow Liu." Ning Lang said, scratching his head again, and screamed. Said: "It's just that I don't know how to recite."

Chu Fei felt funny: "Since you can't recite, how can I believe that what you are saying is true?"

"That...that..." Ning Lang said for a while, "Then you don't believe it."

This reaction was beyond Chu Fei's expectation.

"My sister's poem, that is also the daughter's poem in the boudoir. She hasn't been married yet. Although the prince is a prince, he is also an outsider. If the prince knows about it, wouldn't my sister's reputation suffer?" Ning Lang is serious Said: "My mother is very fond of my sister's reputation now. If I know that I will recite my sister's poems to outsiders, I'm afraid I won't even be able to enter the house today."

Chu Fei also remembered the Ning mother he saw that day.

Really like a tigress, at first glance, he looks like a man who will drive his son out of the house.

Chu Fei smiled and put away the curiosity in his heart.

"I heard that your eldest sister is full of mouths, but I have never heard you mention yourself."

In fact, since returning from the academy, information about Ning Lang has been put on his table, and he has already inquired about all of this person's affairs. At first, he thought that this person was deliberately approaching him. After reading the information, he had to believe that someone could be a brother to someone with just a straw sparrow.

It was so naive that it was rare in the world, which made Chu Fei really curious.

When he heard how good his sister was, the praise of full marks fell on Chu Fei's ears, and he gave a discount first.

"Me? What does the prince want to know?" Ning Lang said, "I am not good at school, and I am not as good as my sister in everything else. The only thing I can do is this face. I walk outside and there are many little ladies. When I saw it, I would blush. But you have seen this face, the prince."

Chu Fei helped his forehead: "It's better to talk about your sister again."

Ning Lang's interest rose again: "My sister, that is really the best sister in the world! She is usually the most caring, but I am hungry when I study at night, and she personally cooks a few foods for me."

"By the way, I sent those straw-made animals back yesterday and she really liked it very much. If the prince didn't grab the sparrow with me, I could bring it to my sister." Ning Lang said with guilt.

"That's the king's fault?"

"No, no, it was my fault."

Chu Fei snorted and asked the steward to take out.

It is a bird made only of white jade, with a round belly and a naive expression. It looks more realistic than a straw sparrow.

"This king took a few grass sparrows from your sister, and now returns a few jade from your sister. Is it even?"
