Chapter 417 Ning Bao: Self-Reliant and Strong

"Great! Great!" Lin Jiayu and Mu Laidi were both very happy to hear Ningbao say that they were going to a restaurant.

Seeing her friends happy made Ningbao happy too.

"Tomorrow, Master and Sister Huixin will get engaged, and we'll go the day after tomorrow."

However, whether we can go depends on whether our parents agree. If they do, I'll take you out for a big meal the day after tomorrow.

So as soon as school was over, Lin Jiayu and Mu Laidi ran home to find their mothers, while Ningbao, carrying her schoolbag, hesitated on the main road outside the Zhou and Mu families' houses.

She and her friends made a promise that after school today they would persuade their parents to agree to let her go to Yunlu City the day after tomorrow. But she has two sets of parents. Which set should she persuade first?

Ning Bao always treated both sets of parents equally, trying her best to be impartial. For example, she would eat and sleep with the Zhou family for a few days and with the Mu family for a few days.

Ningbao used to yearn for this kind of family affection when she was in the Taoist temple, but now she suddenly realizes that too much family affection can also be a burden.

However, Ningbao liked this sweet burden. After thinking for a moment, she took a few steps with her short legs...

"Ningbao, you silly girl, why didn't you come in after school? Come here quickly, your mother and Aunt Gu are both at home."

Ningbao was stunned for a moment. So both her mothers were with the Mu family? Then she didn't need to worry anymore.

"Mother, is there a big meal at home today?"

Shen Yuzhen nodded.

“Yes, tomorrow is the engagement of Master Chen and Huixin. Master Chen’s family is small, so let’s all get together tonight to discuss how to proceed with the engagement tomorrow.”

Shen Yuzhen took the book bag from Ningbao's hand and said as she walked,

“Master Chen is a very serious person. Although he said it was a discussion, he had already planned it out in his mind. We just need to follow the prescription and get the medicine.”

"Mother, I think the teacher is nervous and excited because he's going to marry Sister Huixin... Um, Ningbao seems to only know these two words."

Shen Yuzhen affectionately ruffled Ningbao's hair with the hand that wasn't holding the book bag.

"Not bad, Ningbao's education has paid off, she's even learned to use words."

"Is this Ningbao's first time attending this new teacher's class?"

The girls' school originally planned to have Gu Yunrou, Shen Yuzhen, and Su Jingshu as teachers, but once classes started, everyone felt they were too busy.

After all, they are the backbone of their families. It's fine for them to attend a class occasionally, but it would be too much for them to stay there every day.

So he simply asked Gu Zheyuan to find him a female tutor.

Ning Bao nodded repeatedly.

"Mmm, this is my first time."

This teacher is a bit fierce; he won't let us sleep or talk.

"Hahaha!" Shen Yuzhen couldn't help but laugh when she saw Ning Bao frowning.

"That's how it should be, otherwise you little girl will always be sleeping in class."

Seeing Ning Bao come in, Su Jingshu and Gu Yunrou quickly got up to help her get some food and drinks.

Not long after, Gu Yunrou was also called out by Granny Gu.

After Ningbao had eaten and drunk her fill, she looked at her two mothers sitting on either side of her.

"Mother, Mother, Ningbao wants to discuss something with you."

Su Jingshu and Shen Yuzhen both looked at Ning Bao.

"Great! Our Ningbao is starting to discuss things with us now. She's really becoming more and more sensible."

"Ningbao has always been sensible," Ningbao muttered softly.

"Mother, Mother, didn't I open a seafood restaurant with my fellow disciples?"

I haven't eaten there since it opened. I'd like to invite Sister Jiayu and Sister Laidi to have a big meal together.

Shen Yuzhen looked at Ning Bao,

“I have no objection, but it’s definitely not okay for you kids to go. Ask your senior brother and the others tomorrow if they’re going. If they’re going, we’ll feel more at ease with them going with them.”

However, it still requires the consent of Jiayu and Laidi's families.
