Zhou Jing'an nodded and replied, "Yes, after I recover, I should go back to the academy to study."
"I need to prepare for next year's exams, so I have to go back to town early to study. I should leave after the New Year."
Upon hearing this, Madam Pang quickly said, "Oh dear, you must take good care of yourself during this time and not neglect it."
Then, after thinking for a moment, she said, "When my son-in-law goes to study at the academy, why don't you bring the little ones home, Huanhuan?"
"When the time comes, your father, Ning Xu, Ning Liang, and I will help you take care of the four little ones, so we can look after each other."
Before Ning Huan could say anything, Zhou Jing'an spoke up, "Mother-in-law, since I'm going to study at the academy in town this time, Ning Huan and I have discussed it and are planning to move the whole family to town together."
Upon hearing this, not only Madam Pang, but everyone in the room was extremely surprised: "The whole family went to town?"
Originally, Zhou Jing'an and Ning Huan had planned to go to town together. After Zhou Jing'an went to high school in Beijing, she would take the four little ones back to town to settle down.
Pang looked at Ning Huan and saw her nod in agreement. She happily replied, "Great! Now your whole family can go to town together. It's so nice that the family isn't separated."
After dinner, Ning Xu and Ning Liang talked about the family's recent liquor business. Following Ning Huan's approach, the family had taken on quite a few new orders.
Moreover, the relationship with the villagers did not become strained because the secret recipe for the liquor was not passed on to outsiders.
Then Ning Liang looked at Ning Huan with a serious expression and said, "Sister, there's something I want to talk to you about. I haven't thought about it before, but since you're here today, I'm planning to discuss it with you."
Ning Huan paused for a moment, unsure of what Ning Liang wanted to say, and asked, "What is it?"
Ning Liang paused for a moment, then continued, "Sis, I don't want to stay at home like this. I want to try my luck in job interviews in the future, even if it's just with you."
"Sis, I know you're amazing. I'll follow you if you want."
Seeing that Ning Huan didn't speak, Pang Shi said, "Huan'er, if it's inconvenient, then forget it. But Ning Liang, I don't know what's gotten into him, he insists on going out and making his way in the world."
Originally, Madam Pang disagreed with Ning Liang going out. She thought it would be better for him to stay at home, do business, get married, have children, and live a peaceful life.
Life outside is so much better. There are so many people struggling to make ends meet, not even able to afford food.
However, Ning Liang has always been someone who doesn't listen to advice; he won't turn back until he hits a brick wall.
Ning Huan didn't think there was anything wrong with Ning Liang's idea. There are so many people in this world, some want stability, and some naturally want to go out and see the world.
Everyone has their own ideas, and it's not wrong for Ning Liang not to want to stay in the countryside for the rest of his life.
Moreover, Ning Huan and Renjitang collaborated with that young master Qi on beauty creams and other products, and their own medicinal cuisine restaurant and clinic also needed items from her consciousness space.
And the most important thing is the spiritual spring water and the sap of the spiritual tree. These two are used in everything she makes.
She does need a reliable person by her side to carry these things for her, because this person needs to be in frequent contact with her.
Moreover, her cooperation with Si Yan and Young Master Qi inevitably meant that she would meet with them frequently. It wouldn't be good for a woman like her to meet with men so often, so she needed a trustworthy person to make those contacts for her.
If Ning Liang can handle this matter, it will save a lot of trouble.
Ning Huan had spent a few days getting to know Ning Liang and found that Ning Liang wasn't as unreliable as he seemed, and his character wasn't bad either.
As long as Ning Liang stays by her side, she can gradually guide him. Who knows, he might be able to stand on his own and become her manager in the future.
Ning Huan looked at Ning Liang and gradually formed an idea in her mind.
Seeing the look in his sister's eyes, Ning Liang knew she must have a solution. His eyes lit up, and he leaned closer, saying, "Sis, don't worry. I'll definitely work hard for you!"
"Whatever you ask me to do, I can do it well. I definitely won't let you down. And I'll make sure the housekeeper keeps the household in perfect order!"
Ning Huan was amused by these words, and then she said to Madam Pang, "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely not mistreat Ning Liang if he comes with me."
"Besides, I do need a steward. When we go to Zhenshan, my husband goes to the academy to study, and I also need to do some business. And there will always be times when I neglect the four little ones."
“If Ning Liang comes to town with us, he can help look after things. Besides, I’m too busy with my business and need some manpower.”
Hearing this, Pang finally stopped objecting as before and replied, "That's fine too. Since the four little ones need someone to take care of them, let Ningliang go to town with you."
"Your younger brother is quite good at taking care of people, and the four little ones are also close to him. He'll always be more obedient than others when you try to manage him."
Ning Huan was right. In the future, when she goes to town, even if Ning Liang can't help her with her business, he can definitely help her take care of the four little ones.
For no other reason than that I would never feel at ease leaving my four little ones in the care of outsiders.
After arriving in town, there was plenty of work to do, so Ning Liang always had something to do.
However, the thought that if Ning Liang left, the family business would be even busier than before, let alone in the future.
Thinking of this, Ning Huan asked, "Mother, if Ning Liang leaves, will the family's liquor business still be able to keep up?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Liang looked at Madam Pang, his face showing some embarrassment and even some hesitation.
After sighing, Mrs. Pang said with a smile, "It's alright. If things get too busy at home, we can just hire more people."
"We were already too busy at home and needed to hire more people anyway. We'll just hire one more person."
Pang's opposition to Ning Liang going out was not because the family was too busy, but because life outside was not as easy as Ning Liang thought. However, now that he was out there, Ning Huan would be there to help him.
Besides, Ning Huan also needs reliable people to help her with her work, so Pang Shi naturally wouldn't say anything more.
But there's one thing she needs to make clear beforehand: "If Ning Liang leaves home, there's something you need to understand. The family's assets will all belong to your second brother, Ning Xu, after our parents are gone."
"Everything in this house belongs to your second brother. You can't come back for it."
Now that everyone has left, they shouldn't keep their share of the family's belongings anymore; otherwise, it wouldn't be fair to Ning Xu's family.
She needs to talk to the children in advance to avoid them arguing about it later.
