Chapter 44: Accusing You of Extortion
Xu Qiaofeng's words were quite blunt.
But everyone in the Xu family knows that he is just that kind of reckless and protective person. If you offend the third son, don't expect him to give you a good face in the future.
The two older brothers in the Xu family are both doting on their younger brothers.
Otherwise, Xu Qiaofeng wouldn't have been spoiled into this kind of personality.
For a moment, no one spoke up for Wenya.
Tears welled up in Wenya's eyes as she was rebuked. She dared not meet Xu Qiaofeng's gaze and felt inexplicably afraid.
She felt that if she dared to say another word, he would definitely rush up to help Ning Tang, that little bitch, get revenge!
In the end, it was Ning Tang who spoke up, and the matter was resolved.
"Alright, sit down and eat. Your older brothers have to go to work soon."
Actually, she was afraid of creating a rift between her brothers.
Regardless of the circumstances, Wenya was the wife whom her second brother had married through proper channels.
Although the second brother did not express his opinion, if Xu Qiaofeng continued to press the issue, it would inevitably put the older brother in a difficult position.
Xu Qiaofeng originally wanted to say a few more words, but after hearing Ning Tang's words, he understood that she was doing it for his own good, and finally suppressed his anger.
He snorted and sat down, casually placing a piece of food on her plate.
"Eat your food and don't let irrelevant people ruin your mood."
Wenya then dared to breathe heavily.
It was as if they had suffered a tremendous injustice.
Xu Qiaoyan saw this and felt quite uncomfortable.
He and Wenya have been married for over three years. Although they don't have much affection for each other, they've developed a bond even with a dog.
But knowing that she had started the trouble, he could only cough and smooth things over.
"Eat quickly, or the food will get cold."
The atmosphere at the dinner table finally improved.
Only Su Ying's side.
He kept kicking people under the table.
They're brothers, how come there's such a big difference between them!
Xu Qiaolan frowned as she was kicked. She looked up at Su Ying and saw her cold face. Helplessly, she picked up a piece of green vegetable for her.
Eat more.
"That way you'll have the strength to kick people."
Su Ying rolled her eyes at him, annoyed, and ate the vegetables anyway.
After the meal.
Xu Qiaoyan and Xu Qiaolan hurriedly left.
Ning Tang found an excuse to catch up on sleep and returned to her room. As soon as she closed the door, she silently recited in her mind—
Open your eyes again.
We have already entered the space.
The woman who was originally wearing a cheongsam had changed into a dress that looked like an ancient silk skirt, and she looked very beautiful.
Seeing her like this, Ning Tang's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but ask:
Is there enough yang energy?
"You've worked so hard, of course it's enough." The woman chuckled softly, flicking her finger and a thousand-year-old ginseng suddenly appeared in her hand.
Ning Tang's gaze was instantly drawn to this thousand-year-old ginseng.
The ginseng is plump, with intact rootlets, and its surface has a faint sheen.
It's clearly not an ordinary product.
"Grandma Xu is suffering from both qi and blood deficiency, which is difficult to replenish with ordinary decoctions alone. This thousand-year-old ginseng can strengthen the body's foundation and nourish its vitality. With your medical skills, you should be confident about the rest, right?"
Ning Tang nodded.
The excitement in my heart was almost overflowing.
"Thank you." She looked up at the woman, her eyes filled with gratitude. "I really don't know what I would have done without you."
"You don't need to thank me."
"The table recognizes you as its master and should help you solve your problems."
As if remembering something, the woman quickly instructed Ning Tang on the dosage of the drug.
The thousand-year-old ginseng is too nourishing, and Grandma Xu is too weak, so it would be best to cut it into slices and put it into the decoction at once.
Ning Tang quickly nodded and wrote it down.
Just as I was about to ask about other precautions, the woman in front of me began to blur.
She knew this was a signal to leave, so she silently told herself to leave and returned to her bedroom on the second floor the next second.
Ning Tang took the ginseng and walked quickly downstairs.
...
at the same time.
Military hospital.
Ning Tang is off today, which has Zhang Jiaman very worried.
These past few days, she's been going to Ningxin after work, trying to find out something, but it turns out this woman isn't someone to be trifled with either; she actually dared to ask for money.
In order to prevent Captain Xu from being deceived by that wicked woman Ning Tang, Zhang Jiaman gritted her teeth and gave him half a month's salary in just a few days.
"Ning Xin, are you kidding me? Didn't you say you had already made arrangements for Ning Tang's lover to come forward and report her for misconduct in the next few days?"
"It's been two days already, the rumors in the hospital are almost gone, why hasn't the person arrived yet?"
Zhang Jiaman looked at Ning Xin, who was dressed in new clothes and looked like a beggar a few days ago, but had now transformed completely, and her eyes burned with unspeakable anger.
Is this woman trying to scam her?
Using your own salary to enjoy yourself?
"Don't worry, Ning Tang is off today. That man will come tomorrow morning," Ning Xin said casually, making it up.
Regardless of which lifetime she has lived, Ning Tang has only ever had a marital relationship with Xu Qiaofeng. Where is she supposed to find this adulterer?
"Tomorrow? Are you sure?"
Zhang Jiaman threatened, "If you dare to lie to me, I will not only get my money back, but I will also report you for extortion to your men's team!"
Upon hearing Zhang Yanfei's name, Ning Xin's face turned pale.
She has been beaten every day for the past few days, and she has to wear long sleeves even in the middle of summer, otherwise her wounds will be exposed.
"Are you in such a hurry to be reborn? Why are you rushing me? Would I joke about my own reputation?"
Ning Xin forced herself to remain calm: "That man is Ning Tang's first love, and he has a lot of dirt on her. We've agreed to make a scene tomorrow and make sure he's completely ruined!"
Ningxin said that.
But in my heart, I was having second thoughts.
She just made up rumors to smear Ning Tang's reputation, so we can only take it one step at a time.
If all else fails, she can just hire a shill to put on a show. Anyway, she used all the money Zhang Jiaman gave her to buy clothes, so there's no way she can get it back.
Zhang Jiaman was appeased by her words, and her expression softened slightly.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to issue a warning.
"That would be for the best. If you don't see him by tomorrow, you'll see!"
After saying that, he turned around and stormed into the hospital.
On the other side.
Ning Tang was carrying ginseng downstairs to prepare medicine for Grandma Xu.
As soon as I went downstairs, I saw Wenya sneaking towards her and Xu Qiaofeng's bedroom on the second floor, glancing back every now and then to see if anyone was around.
They clearly don't have good intentions.
Ning Tang raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms over her chest, wanting to see what her second sister-in-law was up to.
After she went in, she stood at the doorway and stared straight at the bed.
There was a quilt and two pillows on the bed.
There is nothing else.
Wenya's face was full of disbelief.
Xu Qiaofeng has Lu Niannian, his beloved white moonlight, in his heart, so how could he sleep in the same bed with Ning Tang?
That bitch must have seduced her on purpose!
Wenya wanted nothing more than to tear the blanket to shreds, but just as she was about to touch it, Ning Tang's voice suddenly came from behind her, startling her so much that her hand trembled.
I almost collapsed to the ground because my legs gave way.
"Second sister-in-law, are you coming into my room to get something? Or is something of yours in my room? Why didn't you tell me beforehand?"
I turned around.
Then he saw Ning Tang looking at him with a smile.
The smile on his face was indescribably frightening.
