Ning Feng'er is not only beautiful, but also owns a cloth shop that makes a fortune every day, and she has three more suitors than in her previous life.
In particular, her gentle nature and lack of the spoiled temperament of other young ladies naturally made her even more attractive to these young masters from prestigious families.
Madam Ning's eyes were practically dazzled by the choices, but compared to Ning Chengze, he seemed somewhat inferior. Although he was already the undisputed heir to the Nine Heavens Manor, handsome enough, and highly skilled in martial arts, inexplicably, these young ladies just didn't like him.
Whenever the elders in the family mentioned the marriage to Ning Chengze, these favored girls would always shake their heads and refuse to agree.
"Yunxiao, think of a way. I don't like any of these girls. How could they be worthy of my Chengze?"
Ning Cheng is the future master of Jiuxiao Manor, and his wife will be the future master's wife. Regardless of how good her family background is, it cannot be too bad.
The list of girls sent by these people consisted almost entirely of girls who were not favored in their families, such as Chen Liu.
She had met Chen Liu before; she was a slightly gloomy girl.
He's not good-looking, and his personality isn't good either.
Especially with such a gloomy temperament, how could he possibly manage the mountain villa?
And then there's Liu Er, born to a mistress of the Liu family, who put him under Madam Liu's name. Using someone of such low status to make up the numbers is clearly a sign of disrespect for Jiuxiao Manor.
"Alright, don't be angry anymore. What's there to be angry about? These things depend on fate. Who knows, your destiny with Chengze might be yet to come."
"I just don't understand, how did you manage to get married to the young master of Xiaoyao Palace after you only mentioned it once?" Ning Hongze's health was so poor, yet the young master didn't protest at all. In the end, it was all for nothing.
The story of the young master causing a ruckus at the manor is common knowledge.
Originally, Madam Ning had some goodwill towards her, but now, all that goodwill has vanished.
"I heard from the servants that the young palace mistress is pregnant."
"What?" Madam Ning's eyes widened instantly. "Whose? Hongze's?"
"How could that be? If she liked Hongze, she wouldn't have broken off the engagement with him." Ning Yunxiao scoffed.
When Jiang Hanyi made such a fuss back then, he thought she was very capable, but it turns out she got pregnant and now she wants her son to help her.
Hearing Ning Hongze's words, Ning Yunxiao was both amused and exasperated.
He said he didn't know the Palace Master of Xiaoyao Palace and hoped that he could go and say a few words to him.
"If no one wants her daughter, she can't blame him. Even if they were engaged, they've broken off the engagement, and he doesn't want to be cuckolded."
Most importantly, this woman clearly still loves the man who got her pregnant. If he really accepts her, he might die soon after that man appears.
The words may sound harsh, but the Palace Master of Xiaoyao Palace had no doubt that his daughter would do such a thing.
To be honest, she quite liked Ning Hongze.
When Ning Yunxiao proposed the engagement, she agreed immediately. It had nothing to do with anything else; although she knew Ning Hongze was in poor health and unable to inherit the Nine Heavens Manor, Ning Hongze had exceptionally clear eyes.
A man with eyes like that is definitely not a bad person.
Of course, not being able to inherit the Nine Heavens Manor is also a good thing for them. After all, Han Yi is the young master of the Carefree Palace and will inherit it in the future.
In this way, it's almost equivalent to Ning Hongze marrying into the Xiaoyao Palace.
She had asked Hanyi before, and she agreed.
After all, in Jiang Hanyi's mind, the position of heir is still very important.
But later, she regretted it.
When she caused a scene at that estate, the relationship between the two families was strained. Now, she's pregnant and actually wants Ning Hongze to take the blame. This is utterly shameless.
If Ning Hongze were willing, then she would naturally have nothing to say. However, the current situation is that the Ning family is completely unwilling because her inappropriate actions have caused this matter to spread throughout the martial arts world, seriously affecting the reputation of her Xiaoyao Palace.
Wen Zhongtian had also heard about this.
His eyes flickered, his feelings somewhat complicated.
Is Jiang Hanyi pregnant?
She was pregnant with his child.
But for now, he cannot appear.
I can only make do with winter clothes.
Wen Zhongtian had always wanted to marry Ning Feng'er. Not because he liked her, but because he wanted to gain Ning Yunxiao's trust through Ning Feng'er.
However, Ning Feng'er and Ning Hongze continued to live on the estate.
They never gave him a chance to be alone.
Wen Zhongtian even sensed that Ning Feng'er didn't have much affection for him.
Although Wen Zhongtian himself was not quite sure what he had done wrong to make Ning Feng'er dislike him so much.
"Zhongtian, do you like my sister Feng'er?" Sensing that Wen Zhongtian seemed to be asking about Feng'er, Ning Cheng gave him an ambiguous smile and asked.
"Feng'er is a good girl, very suitable to be a wife."
Wen Zhongtian did not answer directly, but instead gave an ambiguous answer.
"Oh, I understand what you mean now."
Ning Cheng nodded. "That's true. My sister Feng'er is beautiful, well-educated, and most importantly, her cloth shop is very profitable. She is indeed a good choice to be a wife."
“I just think Miss Ning is a good girl.” Wen Zhongtian looked away shyly. “But we haven’t spent much time together. Miss Ning seems to dislike me.”
"Of course, Feng'er lives with my elder brother on the estate every day. Not to mention you, even I rarely get to see her."
As for Ning Feng'er disliking Wen Zhongtian, Ning Chengze didn't think so. A man as tall, handsome, skilled in martial arts, and with a good personality as Wen Zhongtian, no normal woman would dislike him.
"Zhongtian, do I have a way to make Feng'er develop feelings for you?"
"What?"
"Since ancient times, even heroes have found it hard to resist the charms of beautiful women, and beautiful women have also found it hard to resist the charms of heroes. Let's play the hero and save the beauty, and we're sure to make Feng'er fall in love with you."
"That's not a good idea. Besides, Miss Ning has been staying at the manor the whole time and hardly ever comes out. Even if I wanted to be a hero and save her, I wouldn't have the chance."
"Then let's go to the manor to rescue the beauty."
Ning Cheng said with ill intent.
Didn't Ning Hong set up a winery on the estate? She made it all very secretive, not letting anyone go in to take a look.
Since he wouldn't let him go in, he went in by himself. The distillery makes so much money, it's understandable that it got robbed.
Of course, it would be best if we could find the secret recipe for this wine. If we can't find it, we can at least scare them and teach them a lesson.
"Wouldn't that be inappropriate?"
"What's wrong with that? Trust me, this is the best way."
