Everyone But Me is Reborn
Chapter 8:
Ning Mu did what she said, and the next day, Ning Yanting and Ning Lang went out empty-handed.
The lunch for the two of them was prepared by the Fuzhong, and if they were restrained, there would be no other expenses. Ning Yanting didn't think much, and only told Ning's mother to buy some good jewelry for Ning Nuan. Only Ning Lang was bitter. He was woken up by Ning's door early in the morning and didn't even change his mind. After eating breakfast in a daze, Ning Mu drove out to school again.
Ning's mother has always indulged him. In the past, when he slept three poles in the sun, only Ning Yanting would come to reprimand him, but every time he spoke, Ning would come and protect him. Ning's mother was obedient to him, and Ning Lang felt the coldness and ruthlessness of the winter wind from his mother for the first time.
But Mother Ning is also righteous: "A Nuan got up early in the morning and helped me. Look at you, you are two years older than A Nuan, and you are not as caring as the sister A Nuan."
Ning Lang has nothing to say.
Mother Ning was very angry at him, and chased him and cursed: "I can't read books well, and I can't even get up early. How can A Nuan count on you in the future? I might as well plant a club when I give birth to you. People!"
Ning Lang's face was desperate. She only felt that Ning Mu's temper was getting worse and worse. Where was the slightest gentleness like water in the past? Now he is fierce, he is only fierce to him, and he treats Ah Nuan more tenderly than before! What was even more annoying was that my sister was still laughing behind her mother, she didn't even receive the hint from his eyes, let alone help him say something nice.
As soon as the two of them left, Ning's mother got busy.
She took out all the ledgers, and called all the stewards in her shop to check the accounts with them one by one.
Mother Ning was making a lot of noise, and she couldn't help spying on her in the second and third rooms. But Mother Ning ignored everything, but if anyone came over to inquire, the maid rushed back.
She asked Ning Nuan to lay hands on her, and she also had the idea of letting Ning Nuan get in touch with these matters earlier, so as to save it like she did in her previous life. What accident happened to her, but A Nuan didn't even know what she had in her hands.
The more I reconciled the accounts, the clearer I was about what was in my hands, the more Ning's mother couldn't bear to scold myself.
Her father prepared so many dowries for her, just to make Ning Fu not underestimate herself. Her dowry is the thickest among the wives, and according to the truth, it should be the most confident, but in the end it happened. That step.
She was really stupid by herself in her last life!
The more Ning Mu's calculations and memories, the more unable to restrain the anger in her heart.
She became more and more angry, and even the attitude of those in charge became more cautious, and the maids walked in and out even more lightly, for fear that they would be in trouble. Later, it was Ning's mother who came back to her senses first. Seeing that Ning Nuan was looking at the account book intently, she took a small shop's account book to her and asked her to go back to the house to take a good look.
"Mother, I am here with you."
Ning Mu said in a gentle tone: "A Nuan, go to your house, my mother is afraid that my mother gets angry and scares you."
Ning Nuan: "..."
Ning Nuan had no choice but to say no more, and returned to his house with Fragrant Peach.
As soon as he closed the door, Xiangtao took a deep breath and vomited it out again, patting her chest with lingering fear and said: "Madam is like that is really terrible. The slave servant has never seen Madam like this."
"What's wrong?" Ning Nuan spread out the ledger, looked at it carefully, and replied casually: "I think my mother is very good now. She is fierce, and no one dares to bully her."
"Yes, it's like this." Xiangtao was happy again, and said with joy, "Miss, you didn't see the face of Miss No. 2 yesterday. The slaves and others took back the jewelry from Miss No. 2's dressing table. The face of the second lady is worse than swallowing a fly. The slaves usually think that the lady is always so good-tempered and will be bullied by the second lady. Now it’s fine, the lady has become so fierce, no matter it is the second lady and the third Madam, it's still the second and third young lady, so I dare not bully us anymore."
Ning Nuan replied casually and turned the account book slowly.
In the past, Ning’s mother pityed her, and Ning’s mother had no access to Ning’s affairs, so she had never been exposed to these things, and Ning’s mother took care of all the affairs in Ning’s yard. Keeping everything organized, Ning Nuan is the first time to contact the accounts.
What she reads most on weekdays is the books in Father Ning’s study, practicing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Mother Ning is full of hope that she will marry a good family, so she has also cultivated her into a beautiful lady. If Ning Nuan is good at drawing with a pen, he will be at a loss for abacus or something.
When she first looked at the account book, she looked very slowly. When she encountered something she didn't understand, she also looked at Ningmu and asked when she was drinking water. At the end of the day, not only Ningmu's reconciliation progress has passed by more than half, and Lian Ningnuan studied The progress has also risen a lot.
When the dusk came, Ning Lang and Ning Yanting also went home.
Ning Lang's whole person was awkward. He didn't dare to violate Ning Mu's words, and there was a book boy staring at him. He sat obediently in the school all day, and even the master felt strange. After coming down all day, he watched him a lot. Without telling it, he deliberately picked him to answer questions. Needless to say, Ning Lang couldn't answer anything, so he was reprimanded by the master again, causing other students to laugh.
Even Ning Yanting's face is not very good.
When he got home, he first went to Ning's mother and took a look. Seeing that Ning's mother was busy reconciling the accounts, he hesitated whether he should go in or not.
He was hovering at the door, but Ning Nuan, who had come to ask Ning's mother, found him first.
"Father, what are you doing at the door?" Ning Nuan curiously asked, "Are you here to find your mother? Mother is inside, why don't you go in?"
Ning's father was chattering.
He put his hand behind him, a little embarrassed to say that he was here to ask for pocket money.
Father Ning coughed, his eyes fell on the account book in Ning Nuan's hand, his face immediately straightened, and he said seriously, "A Nuan, what are you doing with this?"
"Mother let me learn how to manage the accounts." Ning Nuan lowered her head shyly at the mention of this: "Mother said, her daughter is also of her age. If she gets married in the future, she must also take care of family affairs, so Let my daughter follow suit now."
Speaking of getting married, Ning Yanting can't help but think of what he inquired about today.
Last night, his wife said that to him. He was in a heavy mood and couldn't sleep all night. As soon as he went out today, he immediately sent someone to inquire. He had originally thought of luck, wondering if his wife had misunderstood something, but when the inquirer came back, he knew that what his wife said was true.
A Nuan's reputation is really bad.
The big family pays more attention to fame, and Ah Nuan’s fame has become like this. What about a good family in the future?
Looking at the shy daughter in front of him, Ning Yanting felt sour again, and did not dare to mention the matter of asking for money.
"Father?" Seeing that he had been in a daze for a long time, Ning Nuan couldn't help calling him: "Father, what happened?"
"Nothing." Ning Yanting turned around embarrassedly: "You and your mother study hard, I... I'll go see Lang'er."
After he finished speaking, he kept walking and walked away in a panic.
Ning Nuan watched his memorial film, then lifted his foot into the room.
"Mother, father came just now."
"I know." Mother Ning stopped and asked the little maid to squeeze her sore arm: "Your father must have come to ask me for money. Fortunately, A Nuan, you are smart, so let him go first. If he comes in, I will scold him first."
Ning Nuan couldn't help but smile: "I don't think that's what Dad meant."
"What else do you mean?" Ning Mu hummed, "His ears are soft, and he is generous in his shots. Who doesn't like it? When he went out today, he didn't bring a penny of copper with him. Come look for me when you come back?"
Ning Nuan walked to her, put down the account book, and curiously said: "Daddy is busy on business days and doesn't go out for drinks with other adults. Is this expensive?"
Ning Mu picked up another ledger and put it in front of her.
"Look, your father's expenses, I have all written down, you will know after reading it."
Ning Nuan never knew that she still had such a ledger, so she was stunned for a while, and even forgot to open the ledger.
"Don't worry, I will also remember your father's. You and Lang'er's do not spend a lot of money on weekdays. Although Lang'er likes to play, it's not as expensive as your father's."
Hearing what Ning Mu said, Ning Nuan's curiosity immediately rose, she reached out and opened the ledger, and slowly began to remember from the first pen.
Ning's mother didn't start keeping accounts from the beginning, but later it turned out that Ning's father was spending more and more, and he was unwilling to mention it, so she chose to write it down in the form of a ledger.
The ledger has turned yellow, and the first one was many years ago. Ning’s mother remembered everything clearly. It was not so much Ning’s father’s account book, but it was Dafang’s expenses for the second bedroom and three bedrooms. Even the expenses she spent on buying jewelry for Ning Qing were recorded in this account book. on. After studying for a day, Ning Nuan was able to learn and use, and soon picked out the part of Ning's father's separate expenses and looked at it.
Ning's father remembered every expenditure purpose clearly, most of which were incurred by the two younger brothers, or bought gadgets for nephews and nieces. Ning Yanting is busy on official business, but his two younger brothers are different. The two of them have low official positions. They also like to drink and play with friends on weekdays, but where can they afford their salary and Yueli? The wife at home is not a wealthy baby like Ning Mu, so every time she sends someone to call Ning Yanting to pay. Ning Yanting dotes on the two younger brothers the most, but how can he not agree?
In comparison, Ning Lang is already very frugal to buy a mynah today and a hairpin tomorrow.
Ning Nuan became more frightened as she watched it, and couldn't restrain the astonishment on her face even more at Houlian.
Mother Ning's tone was faint: "Your father has always been like this, and you don't know it for the first time."
It was true that Ning Nuan didn't know it for the first time, but it was the first time she found out that the two uncles knew more than she knew. On the account books, Father Ning’s expenditures were all large sums of money, but few of them were spent on himself.
She closed the ledger and said firmly, "Mother, you are right, everything is up to you."
Anyway, when the money is in Daddy's hands, it will ultimately benefit other people. Daddy's quality of life will not decline. Even if it makes Daddy more embarrassed, it won't allow others to take advantage of it!
In the study.
Ning Yanting was sitting in a chair, worrying about his daughter's marriage, and suddenly heard a rush of footsteps. After a while, someone pushed the study door open and interrupted his thinking.
Ning Yanting raised his head and saw his younger brother walk in angrily.
"Big brother!" Ning Yanhai said angrily: "Why didn't you come to the restaurant to pay me the bill? I brought my friends there, and said it was a treat. I called the young man to call you, but you didn't come. I lost a big face in front of my friend."
Ning Yanting panicked and quickly calmed down: "Third brother, don't worry, you can say it carefully."
"Brother, is it because you haven't seen anyone? I waited for an hour in the restaurant in the afternoon, why didn't you wait for your figure."
Ning Yanting frowned: "I was busy with business this afternoon, didn't I tell him?"
I have said it!
But in the past, he sent someone over, even if Ning Yanting couldn't get out, he would ask the young man to bring the wine money. Therefore, every time he sent the young man out, he kept the amount of the wine money.
But today is different. Not only did people not come today, but his little servant came back empty-handed, and he didn't bring back half of the silver.
He also brought a sentence, saying what was inconvenient, let him pay for the wine first!
Ning Yanhai waited left and right in the restaurant, but couldn't wait for Ning Yanting to come over, but he said to treat him, so he had to take out his private house painfully and advance the wine money. You know, because he thought it was Ning Yanting to pay, he wasn't stingy when he ordered the dishes. He ordered all the good wines and dishes, and finally took out a huge sum of money.
He didn’t want Ning Yanting. There was a wife who could make money. On weekdays, he only had the share of the public affairs and his own salary. His wife was a caregiver, and he was reluctant to give him pocket money on weekdays. He saved the private house. It took a long time to save, and now it took a breath, not to mention his fleshy pain.
Ning Yan said angrily: "I have no money in my pocket. Even if you don't come, let the young man come over with wine and money. Brother, because of you, I was laughed at by my friends today. It's a big deal!"
Ning Yanting suddenly felt guilty.
"It's my fault, but when I went out today, I didn't have any money with me, so I can't pay for it for you."
Ning Yanhai's eyes rolled, as if being comforted, and his face was not as angry as before.
"If this is the case, then I won't pursue it anymore." He said, "I will pay for the wine. It's just the silver. I originally wanted to buy Mr. Soseki's paintings. Now the silver is gone. This is Mr. Soseki's paintings. , I'm afraid so..."
He pretended to hesitate to stop and looked at Ning Yanting hesitantly.
Ning Yanting's heart was full of guilt, and his eyes touched the prayer in his younger brother's eyes, where he could take care of the others, and immediately nodded in response: "I will buy it for you, and I will send someone to buy it for you tomorrow."
Ning Yanhai was satisfied.
He also said: "Don't bother my eldest brother. My younger brother can't wait to see Mr. Soseki's paintings. It's better to give me the silver, and I will buy it myself. It saves time and effort, and saves my elder brother a trip."
Ning Yanting nodded again and again: "Okay, just do what you say."
As he said, he wanted to pay, but he reached into his sleeve and touched it for a moment. Then he remembered that he was penniless, not to mention Mr. Soseki’s paintings, he couldn’t afford even a piece of paper. .
Ning Yanting felt embarrassed.
He was a little embarrassed and said: "Wait for tomorrow... Tomorrow morning, I will send the money."
Ning Yanhai frowned, but didn't say anything. He only told him to remember, and then left.
As soon as he left, Ning Yanting didn't dare to delay, and hurried to find Ning Mu.
After he told his request, Ning Mu picked the abacus, and the abacus collided with the abacus frame with a bang.
Without raising her eyes, she directly refused: "No."
Father Ning was dumbfounded immediately.
