Chapter 2705 It’s time to get married and have children
This is the time when they need money the most, not to mention that he didn’t ask them for help because they are a family, even if he wanted to borrow money, he didn’t ask for it, for fear of embarrassing them. But they, knowing that they are in trouble, still want to take advantage of them. Do they really think he is so kind that he would just accept it?
Although Gu Ning was not interested in their family affairs, she felt very ironic about the behavior of Madam Liang Da and Madam Liang San. Sure enough, there were so many bad relatives! However, Madam Liang Da and Madam Liang San were still not convinced. They looked at each other, with calculations flashing in their eyes, and reached some kind of agreement.
Then, Madam Liang said, "How much money do we two women have? Since you are unwilling to sell it to us at a low price, it's fine. We don't really want to take advantage of you. We are just afraid that you can't sell it, so we want to help you as much as possible. But! Mother-in-law is an elder, and as a daughter-in-law, it is natural to be filial to her. Second brother and sister-in-law should not be stingy!"
"My sister-in-law is right. Although many things have defects, I don't think my mother-in-law will mind it!" Mrs. Liang San agreed.
After hearing what Madam Liang Da and Madam Liang San said, Madam Liang's face brightened. She certainly didn't mind the flawed jewelry, and of course she didn't ask for money in advance.
Although the Liang family is very wealthy and Old Madam Liang has never lacked these jewels, it does not prevent Old Madam Liang from being greedy for bargains, so she will be greedy for bargains.
"Yes! As a daughter-in-law, I should be filial to my mother-in-law, but we are in trouble now and need help. I don't expect my mother-in-law to help me, but I don't think she will make things more difficult for us at this critical moment!" Jing Yunchan said, and then looked at Madam Liang and asked, "Don't you agree, mother-in-law?"
Jing Yunchan is much smarter than Madam Liang Da and Madam Liang San. It's just that because of her status, she is usually more impulsive and arrogant. However, as long as she calms down and thinks about it, she will still come up with an idea.
Although Madam Liang was a cheapskate, she also cared about her reputation, so after hearing what Jing Yunchan said, her expression turned grim again, and she scolded Madam Liang Da and Madam Liang San, "Why did you two involve me? Do I need jewelry? If someone didn't know, they would think I wanted something from the second daughter-in-law!"
Madam Liang Da and Madam Liang San were scolded by Madam Liang, so they didn't dare to say anything. They had lived with Madam Liang for decades, so how could they not know what Madam Liang was really thinking! But even if they knew, they couldn't confess!
Gu Ning had already drafted the contract, and after Liang Hongfeng had a look at it, he just had to fill in a few spaces and sign if there were any problems. So it didn't take much time for them to sign the contract.
After signing the contract, Gu Ning did not stay any longer and left.
It was almost time for dinner, so Jing Jining asked Gu Ning to stay for dinner. Gu Ning was not in a hurry to go back, so he agreed.
Gu Ning was a distinguished guest to the Jing family, so when the Jing family saw Gu Ning, they were all polite.
When the housekeeper saw Jing Jining coming back, he immediately ran over and said with difficulty: "Master, Miss Shen is here and is talking to the master and his wife in the hall."
When Jing Jining heard the name Miss Shen, his expression suddenly turned a little ugly, but there was no disgust in his eyes, just a very complicated emotion.
Gu Ning glanced at Jing Jining and didn't ask any more questions. After all, it was someone else's private matter.
But Gu Ning also guessed roughly that Miss Shen must like Jing Jining! As for Jing Jining...Gu Ning didn't know.
But when it comes to love matters, Jing Jining had been away from home because of Jing Yunyao's incident and had never married.
Now that Jing Jining is older and has become the head of the Jing family, Gu Ning feels that it is time for Jing Jining to get married and have children.
But this is Jing Jining's business after all, and Gu Ning is just thinking about it and will not interfere.
Jing Jining did not avoid Miss Shen, but took Gu Ning directly to the hall. Since Jing Yanhua and his wife were also there, Gu Ning did not think it was inconvenient to follow them.
If it was really inconvenient, Jing Jining would have asked her to avoid it.
In the hall, Jing Yanhua and his wife were talking to a young and beautiful woman. All three of them had smiles on their faces and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
When Jing Jining and Gu Ning came in, the beautiful young woman immediately stood up, looked at Jing Jining, and greeted him, "Brother Jing, you're back."
This woman was the Miss Shen mentioned by the official, and the way she looked at Jing Jining was clearly full of admiration.
"Yeah!" Jing Jining responded lightly.
After the woman greeted Jing Jining, she looked at Gu Ning, smiled sweetly, and asked, "This must be Miss Gu, right?"
Although this was the first time the other party met Gu Ning, she also heard what happened when Gu Ning came to the world of cultivation, so she immediately guessed that the other party was Gu Ning.
Since he knew that the other person was Gu Ning, he of course also knew his identity, so he didn't feel anything wrong because Gu Ning and Jing Jining came in together.
"I'm Gu Ning, hello." Gu Ning responded. Gu Ning had seen this woman in Tiandao Sect before, but he didn't know her name.
"Hello, Miss Gu, I'm Shen Yiling." Shen Yiling introduced herself.
"Come and sit down, don't stand." Mrs. Jing said.
Hearing this, everyone came over, and Gu Ning also greeted Jing Yanhua and Madam Jing.
"How was the matter handled?" Mrs. Jing asked with concern. She had heard about what happened between her and Jing Yuelan, and was very indignant about Jing Yuelan's behavior.
Although Gu Ning came here with Jing Yunyao, he didn't do anything from beginning to end, so she felt that it was really unfair for Gu Ning to be taken out like this.
"It's been handled. Jing Yuelan's father agreed to pay compensation, but since he can't come up with that much money right now, the time limit is one month." Gu Ning said.
"That's good." Upon hearing this, Madam Jing was relieved. Although she knew that they dared not not compensate, she was just worried that it would not go smoothly. After all, this was not a small amount! And Jing Yunchan, that woman, would not agree so easily.
But since Liang Hongfeng has agreed, there will be no problem.
"Does Yun Yao know about this?" Jing Yanhua asked, with some worry in his eyes.
Because Gu Ning's store was smashed this time because of Jing Yunyao, so he was worried that this incident would create a rift between Gu Ning and Jing Yunyao.
