Chapter 106 The Prodigal Son's Brother 22



Although Ning Qingfeng didn't quite believe Ning Hongze's words, perhaps because he was afraid of being beaten, he listened to Ning Hongze quite a bit.

His brother is always thinking of him; he wouldn't want to harm him, would he?

"I understand. I'll stay home obediently for a while and not go anywhere." Once he passes the imperial examination and becomes a scholar, he can go to the Xiao family to propose marriage. It has to be said that both brothers have blind confidence and never considered that Ning Qingfeng might fail the exam.

"Damn it." Wei Qing smashed a clear glass in her home.

"Qingqing, this glass is very valuable. How could you just smash it like that?" Wei Er's wife, who is Wei Qing's mother, said with a pained expression.

This glass is so beautiful, but it's too expensive. It costs five hundred coins. She was very reluctant to let Wei Qing buy it, but Wei Qing insisted on buying it. Now, in a fit of anger, she smashed the glass. Is this a glass? It's worth five hundred coins!

"Mom, what's with that look? Are you disgusted with me?"

“That’s not what I meant. I just think it’s a bit wasteful. If you don’t like this glass, you can give it to your younger brother. He can give it away as a betrothal gift.”

Such sparkling glass, I'm sure her future daughter-in-law will love it.

Five years have passed, and Wei Qing is now nineteen years old, which would be considered an old maid in ancient times.

Wei Qing's anger today was not entirely due to Ning Qingfeng.

Instead, it was the eldest son of the Jiang family who got married.

Jiang Peng also got married last year.

When talking about Jiang Peng, one cannot help but mention the Jiang family.

After Jiang Cha married Ning Hongze, Ning Hongze had a long talk with Jiang's father.

The Jiang family only has one son, Jiang Peng, who, although he and Jiang Cha are half-brothers, are still biological brothers.

Moreover, judging from her father's actions after she exposed the matter, Jiang Cha vaguely guessed that her father was not deliberately ignoring her, but was being kept in the dark.

Although she still harbored some resentment towards her father, she was no longer angry with him.

Therefore, she also hopes that the Jiang family can continue to prosper. Without a doubt, the future heir of the Jiang family is Jiang Peng.

Jiang Cha disliked the Wang mother and daughter intensely, but she still cared somewhat about Jiang Peng. Besides, she knew that Jiang Peng wasn't like the Wang mother; there was still hope for him. On her wedding day, he coldly tossed her a stack of silver notes, his tone harsh, but his eyes revealed genuine concern.

But Jiang Peng has been staying in the gambling den, which is unacceptable. Putting everything else aside, this marriage proposal is already difficult to approve.

Ning Hong ordered Jiang Peng to close the gambling den and switch to other businesses. Although Jiang Peng was unwilling, as time went on, he began to find some enjoyment in it.

Of course, if he disobeyed, his brother-in-law's fists were waiting! It was because of this, perhaps because they had both been badly beaten, that the two of them developed a mutual respect and became friends in a short time.

Ning Hongze: "..." She couldn't understand the chuunibyou boy's thoughts. Weren't they like enemies before? How long has it been, and their relationship has become so good?

Two years ago, Jiang Peng was waiting for Ning Qingfeng near the academy when he happened to meet Ning Qingfeng's classmate's younger sister. He fell in love with the girl at first sight.

After a year of relentless pursuit, the other party finally relented and agreed to marry the girl to him.

Therefore, he was extremely grateful to Ning Hong. If it weren't for his brother-in-law forcing him to close the gambling den, he probably wouldn't have been able to get married.

Wei Qing also went to see Jiang Peng's wedding. The young man sat on his white horse, full of youthful vigor, his eyes crinkling with laughter.

This was the first time Wei Qing had looked at Jiang Peng directly, and she suddenly realized that this man she looked down on was actually quite good-looking.

After that, because of her lack of response, the men around her got married one by one.

Now, the young master of the Jiang family is also married.

She lost her last suitor.

Wei Qing originally wanted to wait until she was twenty to get married, but she forgot that men in ancient times got married early. It wouldn't matter if they delayed for two or three years for her, but they couldn't wait for six or seven years.

Most importantly, Wei Qing never gave them any response.

I'm so tired.

If things had gone according to the previous life's course, Wei Qing and the young master of the Jiang family would have had a relationship, but the Jiang family forced them apart.

Later, Jiang Dashao remained unmarried for the rest of his life, while Wei Qing married the Marquis of Jing'an.

Seeing this, Ning Hong couldn't help but chuckle twice. The female lead's ideas were truly something else. She cried and begged to break up with Young Master Jiang after being blocked by the Jiang family, making it seem like the Marquis of Jing'an wouldn't interfere afterward.

However, her business never took off in this lifetime. Whether it was the soap she was experimenting with or anything else, Ning Hong had already made it before her.

Thanks to the popularity of ginger tea, Ning Hong got to know Young Master Jiang.

Ning Hong originally only wanted to cooperate with the Jiang family, but as the recipes he presented became increasingly valuable, Jiang Cha suggested cooperating with the local prominent Jiang family.

“The Jiang family are local bigwigs. With their help, although we have to share some of the money, it’s much safer.”

After all, the Jiang family's backer is the Empress.

What?

Ning Hong raised an eyebrow; this wasn't mentioned in the plot at all.

"The Jiang family is the maternal family of the Marquis of Jing'an, and the Marquis of Jing'an's wife comes from the Jiang family."

Okay, so the female lead got involved with the Marquis of Jing'an by stepping on the Jiang family. I wonder what the Jiang family's attitude will be when they find out that Wei Qing has become the Marquis's wife?

But it doesn't matter, I guess I'll never be able to step on it in this lifetime.

The client, Xu Yuan, wanted to take revenge on Wei Qing. In Ning Hong's view, the greatest revenge was to take away what the female lead wanted to create step by step, preventing her from achieving her goals.

Her pride lay in knowing this advanced knowledge, and he gradually shattered that pride.

Next, Wei Qing should probably go into the clothing business.

Ning Hong smiled slightly, leaving Jiang Cha completely bewildered.

I always felt that Ning Hongze had ill intentions.

Sure enough, not long after, the Jiang family's clothing store launched a variety of new clothes. Ning Hong was not a designer, but he had a shopping mall, which had a bookstore that included all kinds of books. If that didn't work, he could also buy them with points.

The design blueprints for these clothes are very cheap; you can buy a whole stack for five points.

The pressure was driving Wei Qing to the brink of collapse.

Why?

Why is it that every time she wants to do something, someone always beats her to it?

She wasn't the only time traveler in this world.

Wei Qing suddenly felt a sense of panic. Just as Ning Hongze had thought, in modern times, she was just an ordinary girl. If you removed those advanced knowledge, she was even inferior to girls in ancient times.

If this knowledge cannot bring her any benefit, then what should she do?

Her family is already looking for a husband for her, and her braised food business has been taken over by the Wei family.

She has nothing now.

She could even guess that the Wei family wouldn't give her much of a dowry.

what to do?
