"Haha, Madam Su, you're dreaming! What? Su Xiao's already an official, and you're still reluctant to part with the Ning family's meager wealth?" Ning Hong touched the glass cup on the table. In the sunlight, the glass cup shimmered and sparkled, quite captivating.
His sister is such a fool, putting so many good things in her mother-in-law's room. Luckily, her mother-in-law is also a fool and doesn't have much insight, otherwise, the Ning family might have been targeted by someone.
How could a small rural landlord possibly have so many good things to offer?
"I--"
She really couldn't bear to part with it. She had only enjoyed such a wealthy life for a short time, and she was truly reluctant to give it up. What if she ran out of money again later?
"Qiao'er, what do you think? Are you still willing to continue serving Su Xiao? Su Xiao is an official now."
“I don’t want it.” Ning Qiao’er shook her head. “The letter of divorce has already been submitted to the government for registration. Su Xiao and I have nothing to do with each other anymore.”
Ning Qiao'er sniffed.
"From today onwards, you are no longer my mother."
"Ning Qiao'er, you said it yourself, don't regret it later."
Feeling humiliated by Ning Qiao'er, Madam Su's face grew even more unpleasant. "Hmph, Su Xiao is going to take me to the capital to enjoy a life of luxury now, so you can stay here in this old house all by yourself."
The neighbors finally said "oh," and then they completely understood.
It turns out that Su Xiao passed the imperial examination and became an official, so he looked down on Ning Qiao'er. That's why he divorced Ning Qiao'er and even had Su's mother ruin Ning Qiao'er's reputation.
That's truly a vicious heart.
Su Xiao never expected that the performance her mother put on before her death would cause his reputation to plummet to rock bottom in an instant.
"Madam, the master said he doesn't want anything anymore."
"What? What did my son say?"
Do you not want anything?
Has he gone mad?
"Everything in this house was purchased by Ning Qiao'er, so it will all be returned to Ning Qiao'er."
"But, but—" Some of them were bought by her, even though the money came from Ning Qiao'er.
Su Liu was truly unwilling to accept this.
But this person has already said that if she insists on dawdling and taking these things with her, then she shouldn't go.
Why didn't you say that sooner?
If she had been told earlier, she would have simply not gone and had just lived with Ning Qiao'er instead.
But now, she has offended Ning Qiao'er, and even many of her neighbors.
Where else can one stay in this place?
Su Liu secretly put a few gold hairpins into her sleeve pocket, then picked up her bundle and left.
The Ning family wasn't short of two hundred taels of silver. She carefully kept the silver note close to her body and left Hu County with the people sent by Su Xiao.
I felt a pang of heartache the whole way.
Most importantly, the maid who usually served her refused to leave with her.
She would rather be a maid in a landlord's house than go to the capital with her.
That's so petty.
"Waaah, waaah, brother, she scolded me again." After the neighbors left the Ning family in embarrassment, Ning Qiao'er covered her face with her handkerchief and cried again.
She was almost sobbing uncontrollably.
“Isn’t it normal to scold you?” Ning Hong then picked her up and made her sit on the bed, where she continued to cry.
Once she had finished crying, Ning Hongze held out a mirror in front of her.
"Oh my goodness, where did this ugly monster come from?"
Ning Qiao'er slapped the glass mirror away.
With a loud crash, the mirror shattered on the floor.
The two maids at the door felt heartbroken upon hearing this sound.
Miss, what a waste! You've broken such a beautiful mirror.
If you don't want them, give them to the two of them.
Why--
"Brother, how could you scare me like that?"
“I’m not kidding you, this is exactly how you are right now.”
Ning Hong then pulled out a small mirror and handed it to her. "Let me show you how ugly you look, so you don't fall again."
In the mirror was a fat and ugly daughter, her eyes swollen and narrowed into slits from crying.
Her makeup was also mixed up.
It's really hard to look at.
Not to mention the young lady of the Vice Minister, she can't even compare to the two maids beside her.
"Brother, what should I do?"
"Of course, it's about losing weight, slimming down, and becoming beautiful." He touched his face. "You're my own sister. There's no reason why I'm so good-looking while you're so ugly."
Ning Qiao'er: "—"
That hurts.
How could she have such a brother?
Although she didn't like Ning Hongze saying that, Ning Qiao'er knew that Ning Hongze was not wrong.
Although Su Xiao is a jerk, one of the reasons for that might be that she's just too ugly.
Even if she were slightly prettier, Su Xiao would have thought twice before divorcing her. She wouldn't be so decisive, giving up everything for her.
Of course, none of these belonged to him; he was quite self-aware.
Ning Hong, taking into account Ning Qiao'er's physique, went to his shopping mall and searched around, finding some weight loss products.
There are topical treatments and oral supplements, but of course, the most important thing is to exercise.
Only by increasing exercise can a person improve their physical fitness and physique, which will naturally lead to a better figure.
They didn't choose any other place and moved directly into the house registered under Ning Qiao'er's name.
Ning's father and mother would occasionally come over to check on things.
Seeing Ning Qiao'er getting thinner and thinner, the two elders were heartbroken and wished they could stew more chicken soup to nourish her body.
Ning Qiao'er's body is not only healthy in appearance, but also in its own right, so there is absolutely no need for her to take any supplements.
Therefore, once the food was delivered to the mansion, it was basically eaten by the servants and Ning Hong.
Besides Qingshan Academy, there is another famous place in Hu County: Jinguang Temple on the outskirts of the city.
On the back mountain of Jinguang Temple, Ning Hong was lying on a tree, biting an apple, while Ning Qiao'er ran back and forth between two trees.
Ning Qiao'er was covered in sweat from running.
"Brother, I can't go on anymore, let me rest."
"No, there's still half an incense stick's time left. You can rest after half an incense stick has burned out."
"Ah, there's still half an incense stick left?" Ning Qiao'er almost cried again.
"Don't cry. If you cry, your lunch will be canceled."
"Brother, you are so cruel and brutal."
"Heh, I'm doing this for your own good." Ning Hong sat up. "Don't you want Su Xiao to regret this?"
"What?"
"You need to become more outstanding and more charming. Of course, you need to marry a better man so that Su Xiao, that scumbag, will regret it and you will get more attention."
"I?"
Doing this seems pointless; "It would be very tiring."
Isn't it more tiring to always change yourself for others?
