After buying everything, Cheng Yanlang stopped hiding his secrets and said, "I'm going to prepare your dowry. As your only sister's wedding, I can't be an older brother without any thanks, right?"
"You can see that I have everything I need. What else do you want to buy?"
Cheng Yanlang rubbed Qin Anning's head and said, "Silly girl, it's your business whether you have enough or not, but you must have a dowry. You can't let others look down on you."
"So what did you buy?" Qin An Ning looked left and right but didn't see what he brought back.
"I haven't brought it back yet. It will arrive tomorrow. Stop asking questions and introduce it to me."
Qin An Ning snorted softly and pulled Cheng Yanlang over, "This is Aunt Zhou who loves me the most, this is my best friend Si Nian, and Zhou Xing is helping in the kitchen.
This is my second brother Cheng Yanlang."
"Hello, Aunt Zhou, hello, Comrade Si Nian. On behalf of my entire family, thank you for traveling thousands of miles to attend Ningning's wedding."
Cheng Yanlang stood straight, put his fingers together, and saluted.
"You don't have to be like this, kid. I watched Ningning grow up, and she's no different from my own daughter."
Si Nian also retorted, "That's right, Ningning is my good sister, there's no need to thank her."
Cheng Yanlang smiled and didn't respond, "Aunt Zhou, you guys chat first, I'll go to the kitchen to help."
The dinner was very sumptuous, with chicken stewed with mushrooms, braised fish, braised pork, scrambled eggs with garlic sprouts, Qianlong cabbage, and dry-pot potato chips. Lu Cheng even bought some soda.
Si Nian looked at the table full of dishes and secretly gave Qin An Ning a thumbs up.
Ningning is really good at finding a partner. Now she won’t have to worry about cooking at home anymore. She also wants to find a partner who can cook.
There was naturally laughter and joy during the meal, and the topics all revolved around Qin An Ning and Lu Cheng.
After Lu Cheng welcomed them with soda instead of wine and thanked Wen Ling and her group for coming, Cheng Yanlang filled his glass and stood up.
"Aunt Zhou, on behalf of my whole family, I'd like to offer you a toast.
My family has had problems in the past few years and no one has been by Ningning's side. Thank you for always taking care of Ningning.
Especially during those two years when she went crazy, you guys kept sending her money and things, it really took a lot of effort."
Cheng Yanlang was testing Wen Ling with this. Qin Anning lowered her eyes but did not stop him. She also wanted to find out the truth so that no one would have any doubts.
Wen Ling sighed and looked at Qin An Ning with guilt, "I don't deserve this thank you. That year, my mother-in-law broke her leg. Her bones are so brittle that it took her several months to heal.
I am too busy to take care of her, so I have to ask Lao Zhou to go see Ningning.
But Ningning was already unconscious at that time, and when Lao Zhou went to see her, she happened to have an attack.
Originally, Lao Zhou wanted to take Ningning home, but the Qin family disagreed, saying that they were Ningning's relatives and that Ningning was stimulated by Qin Zhen's incident.
This time the attack was definitely because seeing Lao Zhou reminded him of Qin Zhen.
Old Zhou was concerned about Ningning's illness and did not dare to take Ningning away by force.
Thinking that Qin Yong's family treated Ningning very well when Qin Zhen was around, and that the medical conditions in Beijing were better than those in Tianjin, she compromised and agreed to let Ningning stay in the Qin family.
Later, Lao Zhou went there secretly a few times and saw that Ningning was very thin, so he went to find Qin Yong.
Qin Yong said that Ningning lost weight because she had a poor appetite due to the medication.
Seeing that Ningning didn't go crazy at that time, Lao Zhou thought the treatment was effective. He was afraid that his presence would affect Ningning's condition, so he didn't dare to provoke Ningning.
But after I came back, I received more money, bills, milk powder, malted milk and other things.
Our people learned that Ningning couldn't stand the stimulation, and although they were worried about her, they didn't dare to go to see her. But who knew it was all the Qin family's doing. "
Thinking of this, Wen Ling's chest still heaved with anger.
"It's okay, it's all over. I'm fine, aren't I?" Qin An Ning quickly stroked Wen Ling's back to help her calm down.
"That family has been punished. Aunt Zhou, don't be angry anymore. If you get angry and ruin your health, no one will take your place."
After listening to Wen Ling's story, Qin An Ning felt very uncomfortable. Although she believed Uncle Zhou, she did not stop her second brother from testing him.
Actually, I still want to figure out what's going on.
I just didn't expect to make Aunt Zhou angry.
They loved her so much from the beginning to the end. The reason they were deceived by Qin Yong was because they cared about her and were so cautious.
"I'm sorry, Aunt Zhou, I said the wrong thing." Knowing the reason, Cheng Yanlang also apologized sincerely.
Wen Ling said slowly, "Why are you apologizing? You don't know what's going on here.
I was just mad at Qin Yong's family. I didn't expect them to be such inhumane people."
"So evil will be punished, and they will all eat the wind and sand."
Qin An Ning deliberately changed the subject, rolled his eyes, and his gaze fell on Zhou Xing.
Zhou Xing had a bad feeling that Qin An Ning was definitely going to do something bad. Before he could stop her, she had already spoken.
"Aunt Zhou, look, I'm already married, and Zhou Xing is two years older than me, and he doesn't even have a partner. You should introduce him to someone quickly."
Wen Ling glared at her son with disdain. "I only see him when I come to your place. He's not at home in Jinshi at all. He lives in the army and never comes back. I have to be able to see him when I introduce him to a girl."
"Then you can ask Uncle Zhou to escort him back."
Wen Ling's eyes lit up. "Why didn't I think of that? Ningning is really smart. Let's do this when we get back."
"Qin Anning, how come you're even worse than when you were little? I didn't even say anything, yet the fire still managed to burn me!"
Qin An Ning retorted confidently, "So what? Aren't brothers just there to take the blame for their sisters?"
Although she kept calling him Zhou Xing, she had actually considered him her brother in her heart.
Si Nian slipped in from the side, "That's right, even though you know you can't beat Ning Ning every time, you still have to struggle."
The three of them joked around and the atmosphere became cheerful again.
After dinner and a short rest, Qin An Ning took Wen Ling and Si Nian back to her house, and the three men stayed there.
Wen Ling was old after all, and she was very tired after sitting on the train for such a long time. She went back, washed up, lay down on the kang, and fell asleep soon after.
Si Nian was very energetic. He hadn't had a chance to talk to Qin An Ning properly before, and now he was chattering non-stop.
"You know, Sui Chengyu and Guo Xinhua are engaged, and Han Ximei is so proud of herself that she walks around the compound with her neck held high like a victorious rooster, not even afraid of tripping over a rock and falling."
Qin An Ning could imagine what Han Ximei was like based on her nature of flattering the powerful and looking down on the weak.
"That's great, it fulfilled her wish."
Si Nian curled her lips, "But her wish came true. On the day of the engagement, Sui Chengyu got drunk and cried loudly while hugging the banyan tree in the yard. No one could persuade him.
Later, Hong Ling went to persuade him for a long time before finally getting him home."
Qin An Ning was silent for a moment, throwing away the trace of reluctance in his heart.
Sui Chengyu himself couldn't resist his family, and outsiders like them had no way to do anything.
But when she heard Si Nian mention Wei Hongling, she asked the question that had been weighing on her mind, "Niannian, does Hongling like Sui Chengyu?"
