Chapter 478 What a pity

Zhuang Jingye sent Zhuang Qingning out and said, "Well, you should also think about it and see what is the best way to do it."

"I still say that, if you need our help, please don't hesitate to ask, especially for me..."

"I understand." Zhuang Qingning grinned, "Uncle head of the village, please go back quickly. It's windy outside."

"It's okay." Zhuang Jingye walked Zhuang Qingning half a street away, then walked back with his hands behind his back.

Ye stood at the door and peeled a cabbage. She threw the somewhat dry leaves into the duck pen next to her for the ducks to eat.

The Songhua egg workshop was doing good business, collecting duck eggs from everywhere, and the price was not low. In the entire Enji Village and even in the nearby villages, every household raised a lot of ducks, and Zhuang Jingye's family was no exception.

The ducks were stretching their necks waiting for food. When they saw some cabbage leaves falling on the ground, they hurriedly scrambled to eat them.

"Ning girl is really not an ordinary person." Zhuang Jingye was amazed and surprised. "I think if she continues like this, Ning girl's business will become bigger and bigger. In the future, our Enji Village will also be able to produce a capable person."

"What a pity..."

Before Zhuang Jingye finished speaking, he sighed.

"What's a pity? It's a pity that it's a girl?" Ye thought that Zhuang Jingye was going to lament that girls are not as good as boys again, and she rolled her eyes almost to the sky.

"It's such a pity that it's a girl." Zhuang Jingye sighed again.

"It's a rule to obey your husband after you get married. If Ning was a young man, she would marry a wife in the future. If she were to marry to our village, she would help Ning run the family business well."

"But Ning girl is a girl. If she marries into someone else's family, it would be fine if the in-laws are open-minded. But if the in-laws are too particular about the three obediences and four virtues, and simply let the daughter-in-law not go out of the house, wouldn't Ning girl be suffocated to death?"

Ye was stunned for a moment.

So this is what Zhuang Jingye regretted? It was a pity that Zhuang Qingning, such a capable and intelligent young man, might be delayed in the future.

"It's true..." A hint of sadness flashed across Ye's face. "This Ning girl is just like a wild goose in the sky, flying high and looking far. If she turns back, she will be locked in a cage..."

"Wait a minute, this is not right..." Ye suddenly slapped the cabbage in her hand.

"What's wrong?" Zhuang Jingye glanced at her.

"Think about it. With Ning's personality, do you think she would be willing to be locked in a cage? I'm afraid that she would flatten the cage with a slap, and the person who made the cage would regret it terribly."

Ye twitched her lips and said, "Besides, with Ning's taste, can she choose a husband family that is so short-sighted?"

"I think that Miss Ning might want to find a son-in-law. You can rest assured. No one will be offended by this, but Miss Ning won't be offended."

"Before, just because of a plate of dumplings, he was able to chase Song Shi with a kitchen knife across half the village. If someone else makes Ning girl suffer injustice, won't he blow the roof off his head?"

"Yeah, how could I have forgotten about this?" Zhuang Jingye slapped his thigh hard and laughed, "How could someone who always carries a kitchen knife think that she can be bullied?"

This is because things have been peaceful these days. I have become accustomed to Zhuang Qingning's gentle side and almost forgot her fiery temper.

"I'm overthinking..."

Zhuang Jingye waved his hand and looked at Ye, smiling so hard that the corners of his mouth almost reached his ears. "You are the one who thought of this and reminded me."

That's right, they are all as stupid as you. Ye straightened his back.

"What did I say every day? I told you to follow me around when you have nothing to do, to see more people, to experience more things. Even if you don't study, the more people you meet and the more things you experience, the broader your horizons will be, and you will be able to do things better."

Zhuang Jingye narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Look, you are like this now, right? You have been with me for a long time, so your brain has become more flexible, right?"

"This is all due to my usual teaching..."

Well, after all, it turns out that it’s all his credit?

He just said a few sensible words and I thought he had completely changed his character, but he is still a dog that can't change its eating habits.

Ye immediately wanted to stuff the cabbage in her hand into his mouth, and let him know why the cabbage in winter has ice inside! ——Zhuang Qingning lowered his head and walked all the way home.

From a distance, she saw a man sitting at the door of her house.

Only when I got closer did I see clearly that he was a beggar.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

He was dressed in rags, with unkempt hair and a dirty face. He was leaning on a cane whose color and texture could no longer be identified. One of his trouser legs was empty and tied up.

When the beggar saw Zhuang Qingning coming towards him, he hurriedly got up from the ground and moved to the side with his crutches.

Many people are afraid that beggars have lice and fleas on their bodies, so they try to avoid them as much as possible. Many people also think that beggars are poor and unlucky, and if they appear at their doorstep, it will easily bring bad luck to their family and ruin their fortune.

Therefore, beggars are disliked by people and are often driven away.

It was obvious that the beggar in front of him was used to being driven away. Without waiting for anyone to speak, he hurriedly walked to the side, nodding and bowing as he walked, explaining repeatedly, "I'm just tired. I want to take a rest. I'll leave now, I'll leave now..."

Zhuang Qingning would despise young and strong people who do not work hard to make a living but instead become lazy like insects and beg for money and food.

But the person in front of me had lost one leg, and the hand holding the crutch was twisted and deformed. It was obvious that he was in this state because he had encountered an accident or a serious illness and lost his ability to work.

For a moment, Zhuang Qingning felt that this man was a little pitiful, especially the way he dodged in a hurry, fearing that others would beat him up and scold him. This made him feel even more sad, so he raised his hand and called to him, "Don't leave in a hurry, I'll get you something to eat."

The beggar was stunned when he heard Zhuang Qingning say this, then he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Zhuang Qingning, "Thank you, young lady. You are really a living Bodhisattva..."

"Do you have a bowl in your hand? It's so cold. I'll scoop you a bowl of hot soup."

Mutton and mutton bone soup were stewing at home. Zhuang Qingning made mutton soup with steamed buns while preparing dinner. It was so cold, and if he could eat a bowl of hot soup, it would probably keep him warm for a while.

"Thank you, thank you." The beggar fumbled tremblingly and took out a rough porcelain bowl with a chip on it from his torn padded jacket that was leaking cotton wool everywhere.
