Chapter 109: The Prodigal Son's Brother (Extra Chapter)



Ning Hong genuinely felt that this was the simplest task he had ever undertaken, requiring no thought whatsoever; all he needed to do was use his fists.

Ning Qingfeng was quite sensible. Of course, what surprised him the most was meeting Jiang Cha.

He had never known anyone could be so in sync with him. It was as if they were destined to be together.

They've been married for forty years, and they've had their arguments and their cold wars. Whenever this happens, they always feel particularly uncomfortable and can't help but want to make up, whether it's him or Jiang Cha. They made up the next day, and afterwards, their affection only intensified, much to Ning Qingfeng's annoyance.

"My brother and sister-in-law are so lovey-dovey, it's unbearable."

"As if you and Junjun aren't lovey-dovey?"

"But I have to go to court." How could I be with my sister-in-law and brother every day like they are? Every time I get up early to go to court, I always feel a little unbalanced.

He also wanted to be like his brother, giving Junjun a kiss every morning and sleeping until he naturally woke up.

Of course, this is just talk. If he really gave up everything here, not only would he feel guilty, but Junjun's father and his teacher would not let him off the hook.

He had studied diligently for ten years, all for the sake of standing in the imperial court at this moment. Of course, he also needed to stand here to protect his family's property.

My brother's business is growing bigger and bigger, and his cooperation with the Jiang family is becoming increasingly close. Of course, there's also his sister-in-law's Jiang family.

As for Wei Qing, with Ning Hongze's excellence preceding her, how could anyone possibly look favorably upon Wei Qing?

Of course, no one knew that this was the brother's doing; his family had always stayed behind the scenes and rarely showed their faces.

It wasn't until his mother turned forty that she suddenly wanted to go back to the village for a visit. His family accompanied her back, and the villagers then discovered that the Ning family, whom they had bullied back then, had now reached a level they could no longer reach. Not only did the county magistrate fawn over them, but even the head of the Jiang family, the wealthiest family in town, was quite respectful. Some curious people went to ask about it.

They could understand the magistrate's respect; the second son of the Ning family had become an official, and it was said that he was more senior than the magistrate, so it was normal for the magistrate to fawn over him. But why was the Jiang family head so respectful to the eldest son of the Ning family?

"Oh, you mean Master Ning?" the servant said with a proud look on his face.

"Master Ning is quite the extraordinary person."

What kind of genius is he? He's just a sickly man.

But listen to what this person is saying? The soap was made by the eldest son of the Ning family, and the glass, mirrors, and the Jiang family's most famous clothes were all made by Ning Hongze.

Is Ning Hong really that amazing?

If he were truly that capable, how could they have bullied him so badly back then?

"Don't disbelieve me, I'm telling the truth! Do you know? There's a village near the capital, and that's where Master Ning's base is."

"Then what?"

"What, and then? Because of Uncle Ning, the whole village has become incredibly wealthy. Now everyone in the village lives in big brick houses and has plenty of money to spare. I heard that girls from nearby villages all want to marry into that village, and even girls from the town like to marry into their village."

The villagers were stunned when they heard this.

They live some distance from the capital and have never heard of such things before.

Is this village really so wealthy because of Ning Hongze? If these things are true, then haven't they essentially driven away the god of wealth?

I was momentarily dazed, and an indescribable sense of regret welled up inside me.

If they hadn't driven Ning Hongze away back then, wouldn't they be the richest village now, with everyone living in brick houses...?

After Liu moved the Ning family's graves, the people of Weihe Village felt a deep sense of loss as they watched the vast crowd.

The Wei family was the most regretful of all. If they hadn't broken off the engagement back then, they would be among the crowd of people who envied them right now.

In her later years, Jiang Cha was often in a daze, especially after Ning Hongze passed away. She would often sit in the courtyard in a daze for a whole day.

Sometimes she feels that her life trajectory shouldn't have been like this.

But she feels extremely happy now.

Hong fulfilled all her promises.

The only thing that didn't happen was that he left before her, leaving her all alone.

They had clearly said they would go through life and death together, but he didn't keep his promise.

Jiang Cha never imagined she would fall so madly in love with someone.

Initially, it was just a decision made out of desperation, but it turned out to be the best decision she ever made in her life.

He spoiled her and made her the happiest woman in the world.

He would support whatever she wanted to do, even if he didn't approve of her.

Finally, when she failed, she tried her best to help him make amends.

He said he didn't like seeing her cry; he preferred to see her confident.

What moved her most was that she had not given birth for five years, and people outside were eyeing the position of Madam Ning covetously.

Even her mother-in-law, who always doted on her, looked at her, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

Her stepmother, Wang, even sent two women over. If Jiang Lin hadn't already gotten married, she probably would have sent Jiang Lin over instead.

However, Hong refused them all.

He talked with his mother-in-law for an hour. When she came out again, she couldn't help but hug him and cry, apologizing repeatedly.

Seeing her mother-in-law's expression, she knew that Hongze must have shifted the blame for not having children onto her. That was why her mother-in-law felt so guilty.

He also gave the two women his stepmother had given him to her father, leaving his stepmother with no way to complain.

But the more Hong did this, the more she wanted to have children with him.

Fortunately, five years later, she finally became pregnant and gave birth to twins for him.

She watched as he cried, heartbroken for her, holding her hand and repeatedly saying, "You've suffered so much."

She felt that she had no regrets about marrying this person in this life.

This person deserves her wholehearted appreciation.

If she hadn't met this person, how much regret would she have had in her life?

Life is so short. She hadn't even had enough of his love and affection before he left.

That day, she held his hand, tears streaming down her face.

Jiang Cha leaned back in the recliner and slowly closed her eyes.

If there is an afterlife, she hopes to meet him again.

"Ding, mission complete, host disengaged..."
