Chapter 501 What to do

Zhuang Wencheng frowned, "Didn't I tell you that I treat Sister Ning as my own sister, and I don't think of anything else. Didn't I tell the matchmaker a few days ago to help me find a few girls who look virtuous, so that I can meet them when I have time. If there is one that suits my taste, I will consider getting engaged?"

"Wasn't mother very happy before?"

Wang curled her lips.

She was really happy before.

That was because seeing Zhuang Wencheng finally wanted to start a family, that meant that she would have a grandson in her arms soon, wasn't that a happy thing? But thinking again, this future daughter-in-law might not be as capable as Zhuang Qingning, Wang felt a little disappointed again.

But this matter is not something you can do as you wish. Zhuang Qingning will definitely not listen to her talking about it, and Mrs. Wen will not help her either. She is anxious but there is nothing she can do.

She could only hope that Zhuang Wencheng would get married and have children sooner, so that she could feel relieved.

But because of what happened today, Wang's mind started to become active again.

Especially when Wang thought about the daughter-in-law whom she looked down upon in the past and who now didn't want to be her daughter-in-law, she felt even more upset.

"Don't lie to yourself. The way you looked at Ning girl before, you wanted to throw yourself on her. Tell me, is it because you felt that you were not worthy of Ning girl's shop and workshop, and you felt that you were not worthy of her, that you didn't mention this matter before?"

Wang advised earnestly, "Look, you are going to the county town to be a doctor now, and you can also get close to the Cheng family in the future. This is no worse than Ning girl..."

"If you are too embarrassed to ask this, then mother will go to Ning girl and talk to you. After all, you have helped Ning girl in the past, and Ning girl should be grateful. Otherwise, it would be against her conscience..."

Zhuang Wencheng really didn't expect that Wang was still thinking about him and Zhuang Qingning at this moment.

Zhuang Wencheng was both angry and amused at this moment, "Mom, let me tell you this, I really treat Sister Ning as my own sister. Besides, Sister Ning was engaged a few years ago, and I knew about this a long time ago."

"So I didn't think much about it at all. I just took care of her as my own sister. We grew up together. When I was little, I saw other people had sisters, but I didn't, so I thought about making Sister Ning my sister. I really didn't think much about anything else..."

"You mean, Miss Ning has already been engaged?"

Wang Shi didn't hear Zhuang Wencheng's words, but only heard this sentence. She was so shocked that her mouth opened wide, "How come I didn't know about this?"

"No, when did this happen? How come I haven't heard anything about it? Did this girl lie to you?"

Wang seemed to have thought of something, and her face suddenly darkened, "Or did this little girl Ning find a high place and fly away? Could it be that shopkeeper Cheng just now?"

"Mom, please don't talk nonsense." Seeing this, Zhuang Wencheng hurriedly grabbed Wang's sleeve and said in a low voice, "I'm telling you this, and you just need to know it. Don't talk nonsense outside. If you are not careful, you will lose your head."

Wang was stunned again. "What's the matter? You have to lose your head. Are you trying to scare me?"

"I'm really not trying to scare you." Zhuang Wencheng lowered his voice a little, and said, "I won't hide it from you. Sister Ning's future husband is an official in the capital. He is the elder brother of the young master who often studied with Qingsui and Mingli!"

When Wang heard this, she turned pale with shock. After a long while, she came to her senses. "Is this true? How can a high-ranking official in the capital look down upon her?"

"I heard that it was a childhood marriage. Besides, there are some people who don't care about family background when marrying a virtuous wife."

Zhuang Wencheng said, "Otherwise, why would the young master be so eager to bring his teacher to Sister Ning's house every day to study and take classes? Such a capable teacher has to give lessons to two little kids, Qingsui and Mingli, every day?"

"That's true..." Wang nodded thoughtfully.

Previously, people in the whole village had heard that Mr. Fan seemed to be very knowledgeable, and that young Master Chu also seemed to be of great origin, and it was said that his eldest brother was a high-ranking official in the capital. She was wondering at the time what was wrong with these wealthy people, and why they came to the village every day.

It turns out there is such a relationship. Now everything can be explained.

Zhuang Qingning will be the eldest sister-in-law and the lady in the future. It is normal for her younger brother-in-law to come and visit her from time to time, and it is normal for a teacher to please the future mistress of the house.

But if that's the case...

Wang suddenly felt a chill on her back, and her voice trembled a little, "Well, I was telling everyone before that Ning girl is a good match for you, so..."

The high officials in the capital were extremely powerful. It would be easy for them to remove the county magistrate. Wouldn't it be easy for ordinary people like them to lose their lives with just a flick of their fingers? For Mr. Chu, would what she did be considered to have ruined the reputation of his wife? Would she be punished in the future? Would their family be implicated and suffer because of her?

When Wang thought about this, cold sweat broke out on her back.

In the middle of winter, beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on my forehead.

“Wencheng, what should we do?” Wang was so anxious that she almost cried out, “Is our family going to be gone in the future…?”

No matter how much she planned, she never expected that Zhuang Qingning would be the childhood sweetheart arranged by Lord Chu, and would become the wife of a high-ranking official in the future!

"Sister Ning is a good person, and Lord Chu seems to be open-minded. It shouldn't be a big deal." Zhuang Wencheng realized that he had frightened Wang a little too much, so he said hastily, "It's said that ignorance is innocent. Since mother didn't know before, it should be okay."

"But now that you know about it, you are not allowed to talk about it anymore. Not only that, you also have to be more polite to Sister Ning in the future."

"I know, I know." Wang nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice. "I know what to do next. I guarantee that my mouth will be as tight as if it were sewn shut by a needle. I won't say a word."

"I won't even tell your father, your elder brother, or your elder sister-in-law!"

"Well, mom knows." Zhuang Wencheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally, Zhuang Wencheng had no intention of revealing the fact that Zhuang Qingning and Chu Jinnian were engaged.

But looking at Wang's look, it seemed like she was not giving up and was only thinking of causing trouble everywhere. In order for Zhuang Qingning to have some peace and quiet here and for Wang to be able to calm down, he revealed the matter.
