Instead, Ning Jing comforted Wang Guihua and laughed it off.

If Gao Dani had apologized to her directly back then, Ning Jing would have thought more highly of Gao Dani, showing that she was flexible and adaptable.

But now, he suddenly comes to her door, making small talk. Is it just to apologize?

Ning Jing said she didn't believe it at all.

Gao Dani, whose face gradually flushed red as Ning Jing scrutinized her from head to toe, felt extremely embarrassed and annoyed, but she endured it and remained silent.

"What is it that Genlin's wife is referring to when she says I'm angry? I'm so sorry, I'm getting old and I can't remember some things."

Ning Jing gave her a fake smile, then spoke frankly.

Gao Dani, speechless at Ning Jing's feigned ignorance, didn't manage to force a smile for a long while before gritting her teeth.

“I know you’re angry, Auntie. You can take it out on me. As long as it helps you calm down, I’ll do whatever it takes.”

Seeing Gao Dani's aggrieved and submissive expression, Ning Jing raised her eyelids and glanced around.

This little brat, pretending to be an innocent white lotus with her?

"I don't even know why you think I'm angry. Why should I take it out on you?"

"Da Ni, you need to get medical treatment if you're sick. Tell your parents and Genlin as soon as possible. Don't ignore minor illnesses, or they'll become serious and incurable!"

Ning Jing reached out and patted Gao Dani's shoulder earnestly, then whispered the last sentence close to Gao Dani's ear.

Hearing Ning Jing say that was tantamount to pointing a finger at her and calling her crazy.

Gao Dani was instantly enraged, and suddenly looked up to glare at Ning Jing, abandoning her previous innocent and pure demeanor.

"You...you've really gone too far."

Ning Jing seemed startled by her sudden change in expression and quickly took a step back, standing in her own yard with her hands gripping both sides of the gate.

“Genlin’s wife, your aunt is only trying to be kind. If you don’t appreciate it, fine, but why are you acting like this?”

Never mind, just consider it me being nosy as an aunt!

Your uncle has to go to work, I need to go cook for him.

After finishing her angry speech, Ning Jing closed the door, bolted it, and turned to go back to the kitchen, not wanting to waste any more time on such a hypocrite.

Although she wasn't entirely sure what Gao Dani's purpose was in coming, she was certain it wouldn't be anything good.

Since it's not a good thing, it's best to avoid getting involved.

However, I wonder if her coming today was at the behest of Sister Guihua and the others, or at Genlin's, or perhaps just her own decision?

Forget it, I'm too lazy to think about all this nonsense. At worst, I'll just go to the farm and ask Sister Guihua directly.

If anything happens to the Zhao family, she will naturally lend a hand if she can.

If it's just Gao Dani's problem, she wouldn't bother with it or offer any help.

To avoid getting into trouble instead of getting any mutton.

"What's wrong? Why are you standing in the middle of the yard in a daze?"

As Ning Jing was lost in thought, she saw Fu Hongxing come out of the room. Seeing her standing there so blankly, he couldn't help but feel sorry for her.

He stepped forward and draped his coat over Ning Jing's shoulders, then asked her what was wrong.

Ning Jing was already wearing quite a few layers, and with the coat Fu Hongxing draped over her shoulders, she immediately felt warm all over.

"It's nothing. Sister Guihua sent someone to ask if we need to go check on the farm in the snow. I already told Aunt Wu yesterday."

She shook off the jumbled thoughts and ideas in her mind, looked up and smiled at Fu Hongxing.
