Yang Lian was still somewhat unwilling; she simply couldn't believe that someone would love her younger sister so much.
He immediately went to Ning Hongze and subtly probed her.
I want a definite answer.
Ning Hong raised her eyebrows, her expression exactly the same as Ning Nuonuo's that day.
"What kind of joke is Nuonuo making? What kind of family would put all their assets in their younger sister's name? Do they expect her to take them with her in the future?"
"it's out of the question."
Ning Hong shook her head.
Yang Lian's face lit up with joy. "I knew it was impossible." She hadn't expected Ning Nuonuo to be a liar. Was she trying to get married and exaggerating the value of her dowry to bolster her confidence? "It's not good for her to say that. If others believe it, it could affect Brother Ning's chances of getting married."
"No, what I mean is, that little bit of property isn't enough for my sister. She deserves the best. I, her brother, am still saving up for her dowry. However, I won't let her take the property with her. I'll help manage it, and then I'll just give her the profits."
Ning Nuonuo had never learned these things before. Moreover, he was worried that if he gave all these businesses to Nuonuo, she might be cheated out of everything if her in-laws were not good. It would be better to leave them in his hands and let him manage them. In the future, he could just send the profits directly to her.
Of course, he will do his best to find her the best match. Good character, a simple family background, and a little poverty are all acceptable; the important thing is the person.
After all, he's very good at making money.
Of course, he wouldn't consider someone like the Yang family who has ulterior motives.
"So it's true." Yang Lian's face turned pale and then red, her heart filled with envy and jealousy.
How come Ning Nuonuo is so lucky?
She actually met such a wonderful brother.
When Yang Lian returned home, everyone was eating, and no one even saved a portion for her. If Ning Nuonuo hadn't invited her to stay for dinner, she probably would have gone hungry until evening.
Ning Nuonuo's family member is comparable to her entire family.
"Oh, we're having meat today too." Yang Lian peeked at the food on the table. There was meat and eggs. They were taking advantage of her absence to eat something nice.
"Little sister, don't be sour. I thought the Ning family would have invited you to stay for dinner, that's why they didn't." Sister-in-law Yang quickly stood up. "If you haven't eaten, please eat some more, I..."
She held the bowl of white rice in her hands, wanting to hand it to Yang Lian, but she was afraid that Yang Lian would actually take it. It was a rare treat to have white rice today.
We usually eat coarse grains and coarse rice, so it's rare to have white rice for a while today.
"You're reluctant to part with it, aren't you? I'm waiting."
"Yang Lian, what are you doing? How can you talk to your sister-in-law like that? What happened? Ning Nuonuo rejected you, and she still won't invite you to stay for dinner?"
Brother Ning sneered, "Don't you even look at yourself? Do you think you're worthy of Scholar Ning?"
Strangely, Yang Lian wasn't angry. She just glanced at her older brother quietly and went back to her room.
She wasn't angry, not at all. After all, in her mind, her brother was also unworthy of Ning Nuonuo. She thought she should continue to befriend Ning Nuonuo.
At least, when she gets married, Ning Nuonuo might give her some of her things to use, and that would be great.
Sigh, how come other people's brothers are so nice, while hers is like this? It's so frustrating to compare yourself to others.
Yang Lian was a very pragmatic person.
The next day, everything returned to normal.
Ning Hong was very satisfied, and Ning Nuonuo was even more satisfied.
He gave her a gold hairpin that very day.
It made her beam with joy.
This is pure gold.
It's made of gold.
This is the first time she's received such fine jewelry. She needs to hide it; no one should know.
That's why, despite repeated attempts by the Yang family to get Yang Lian to meet Ning Nuonuo and her brother, she refused each time.
Just kidding, if you anger Nuonuo, how will she save up for her dowry? Yang Lian isn't stupid either. Offending or pleasing people has more benefits, and she will naturally analyze it clearly.
Before we knew it, the fields were a golden expanse, and autumn had arrived.
The autumn imperial examinations followed.
The autumn imperial examinations last for nine days, with one day of rest after three days of testing, followed by another three days of testing and another day of rest, and this process is repeated three times.
For the past three days, I've been eating and sleeping in the exam room.
Ning Nuonuo was alone, so Ning Hong naturally wouldn't let her live alone in the countryside.
The villagers weren't exactly honest and kind; although there were good people, they were considered 'outsiders' by the villagers because they were from out of town.
He was worried.
He also owns property in the capital.
He planned to let Nuonuo stay there until his exams were over.
Worried that Nuonuo might be too bored by herself, he even asked Nuonuo to invite Yang Lian to keep her company.
.
"Here is fifty taels. Have Yang Lian do some housework for Nuonuo." To prevent the Yang family and villagers from misunderstanding his intentions, he directly presented it as a job offer.
"Doing housework?"
"Yes, it's just to be my sister's housekeeper for a few days."
Without payment, the Yang family wouldn't let them go. Even if they did agree, they would probably ask them to bring their youngest son along.
"Then why not let my son go too? There are two girls here..."
The Yang family really thought that way.
Ning Hong turned and left, saying, "Forget it, I don't trust you guys. Let's find someone else."
"When I return, if you can take good care of my sister, I will give her another fifty taels of silver, or a hundred taels. There should be quite a few people willing to do that. If you are not willing, then forget it."
"Hey, no, we agree, we agree." One hundred taels of silver, how long would it take to earn one hundred taels of silver?
The Yang family immediately agreed.
Yang Lian was overjoyed.
Ning Hongze said that if she took good care of her sister, he would give her an extra fifty taels of silver, without letting her family know.
In this way, she had more than fifty taels of silver in her private savings.
Why not?
The Ning family is indeed her lucky star!
With the help of the Ning family, her dowry is so generous that she will surely be able to marry into a good family in the future.
Yang Lian thought to herself silently.
Ning Hong and Ning Nuonuo looked at Yang Lian, who was carrying her luggage and couldn't help but smile, and they both smiled at the same time.
Being a shrewd person also has its advantages.
As long as she's clear-headed, everything will be fine.
After a rigorous examination, Ning Hong finally sat down in her seat.
He wasn't very lucky; he was near the toilet, but thankfully it wasn't a foul one.
Ning Hong tried to console herself with a bittersweet smile.
He used to really enjoy watching "The Female Imperial Envoy," but now that he thinks about it, it was all fake.
This examination is so thorough, they practically strip you naked, spreading your buttocks open to check. If it were a woman, not only would her reputation be ruined, but she would also face imprisonment.
