Chapter 131 Ningning, where are you going?
Shen Chengxi came to make a scene the first day, and early the next morning, Xie Yunqing came to the door in person with Shen Nian. When he saw Shen Ning, he took her hand and started to scold Shen Chengxi.
"Ningning, please don't bother with your brother. He's been a bit of a fool since he was little. I don't know if it was a high fever when he was little. He often makes your father and grandmother so angry at home that they want to strangle him to death... My son, please don't bother with that fool."
Xie Yunqing was afraid that Shen Ning had misunderstood something, and was so anxious that tears were about to fall.
Shen Nian also explained quietly beside him: "I don't know where he heard something yesterday, but he came to my sister to pick a fight. When he got home, my stepmother scolded him and forbade him to go out or bother me anymore."
Shen Nian's eyes were filled with uneasiness: "To be honest, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have gone to Miss Xu and caused my sister to be angry with my brother for nothing."
Xie Yunqing patted Shen Nian's hand, and then pulled Shen Ning: "Ning Ning, don't be angry. Today, mother will take you shopping to buy good things. I will buy them for both of you. There is no such thing as a fool."
Shen Ning smiled and said, "I didn't respond politely to his rude remarks, so I wasn't angry."
Xie Yunqing said, "Even if you're not angry, you have to buy it. Mother searched that fool's wallet and made him spend it all today. He won't have any money to spend until the end of the year!"
Shen Nian chuckled: "Brother will definitely remember this lesson."
Shen Ning did not refuse. As Xie Yunqing and Shen Nian arrived on the street, Xie Yunqing originally wanted to buy some good things for Shen Ning, so he went straight to Mingyue Dian, the largest jewelry store in Pingning County.
But after entering Mingyue Dang, she became worried. She was so used to seeing fashionable jewelry and head ornaments in the capital that the ones in Pingning were really not good enough.
When she left, she was in such a hurry that she forgot to bring some fun things to please her daughter. Now, most of the things she bought were outdated, and she always felt that they were not worthy of her daughter.
But you can't not buy it either.
Finally, Xie Yunqing simply waved his hand and said to the waiter, "This, this, and the two over there, the one at the very edge... I don't want these, I'll take the rest."
The guy was so shocked that he was speechless, and Shen Ning was also a little bit amused and helpless: "No need for so many, I don't have the chance to wear them."
Xie Yunqing refused, holding her hand to prevent her from refusing: "Even if you don't wear it, it's still yours. The things here are not good enough. When we return to the capital in a few days, mother will take you to buy more and better things."
Shen Nian smiled softly beside her and explained, "Sister, don't refuse. Mother owns several shops and is very wealthy. She is happy to spend money on you, so you can just take it as a way to make her happy."
Xie Yunqing patted Shen Nian's head: "Little smart guy, that's the truth."
Xie Yunqing was still not satisfied even after emptying Mingyue Pendant of almost all the jewelry that was worth looking at. However, Pingning was not as good as the capital after all, so she thought about compensating her daughter when she returned to the capital in the future.
Accompanied by maids and servants, several people left Mingyue Pendant, and Chen Ning invited them to sit in Huayingxue.
Xie Yunqing was very happy: "I heard on the road that my Ningning is very talented. The Koreans and Portuguese merchants are vying for the things I make. There are no extras to sell back to the capital. Today I can finally open my eyes."
This is also true.
After all, the output of Huayingxue's several farms is limited. Since the brand was established in Haishi, merchant ships would stop in Pingning from time to time, specifically to purchase Huayingxue's products.
Because of the limited production, sometimes the merchants had to engage in heated arguments in order to get more goods... and those goods, which were not too many in number, could be sold directly to Korean and Portuguese merchants by sea, which would earn more than selling them all the way to the capital.
That is why such good things are not available in the capital.
As soon as I entered the store, a female waiter in simple and elegant clothes came forward to greet me, and soon, Su Lianyi also came out.
Su Lianyi was very experienced. After a while, she was chatting with Xie Yunqing enthusiastically, praising Chen Ning like a flower: "I was wondering who could give birth to a girl as beautiful, capable and kind as Ningning. When I saw the lady today, I immediately understood. It turns out that she is from her mother..."
This one sentence made Xie Yunqing so flattered that he couldn't stop smiling.
Shen Ning personally tried perfumes and lipsticks on Xie Yunqing and Shen Nian... After a while, she chose a lot for the two of them, and even selected the gifts they would bring to their relatives and friends when they returned to Beijing.
Seeing his daughter, who had been separated from him since birth, grow up to be so capable, Xie Yunqing felt warmed. However, when he thought of the suffering she had endured in her early years, and how she was sold at an early age and now became a widow at such a young age, he felt distressed again.
I hate myself for not being able to protect my daughter, and I hate myself for finding her too late...
Shen Nian glanced at Xie Yunqing, whose eyes were red, and said with a smile: "Sister is so amazing and can make so many things. Mother should be happy."
Xie Yunqing choked up and nodded: "Mom is happy, Mom is happy, my Ningning has grown up so well, Mom is happy."
She started crying at the slightest disagreement. Shen Ning felt helpless. Perhaps because they were connected by blood, she felt a little distressed.
Finally, the group had lunch at Jufulou before going back.
After sending Shen Ning home, Xie Yunqing took Shen Nian back to Xu's house to make arrangements for returning to Beijing.
In the carriage, Chen Nian asked hesitantly, "Mother hasn't asked my sister yet if she's willing to go back to the capital with us. What if, what if she doesn't want to?"
Xie Yunqing was slightly stunned. "Why wouldn't she want to? The capital is her home. She has parents and relatives, and people to protect her. It's much safer than a place like Xinzhou... Even though she has the status of a county lord now, the emperor is far away. If some ignorant scoundrels bully her, who can she rely on?"
Xie Yunqing wiped the corners of his eyes: "Mother finally found your sister, I wish I could hold her in my arms every day, but I'm really afraid of annoying her..."
Chen Nian chuckled: "Mother has never been so worried about gains and losses before."
Here, when Chen Ning returned home, she saw Mu Yao still in the yard, tending to the flowers and plants gently and not saying much. Qi Yue was sitting in the corridor staring at her, not allowing her to step into Chen Ning's room.
As soon as Shen Ning entered the door, she saw the two people confronting each other and wanted to turn around and escape, and then she saw a carriage parked at the gate of the courtyard.
It’s Xu Zhiyi.
Xu Zhiyi lifted the car curtain, and Shen Ning said: "Third Master."
Then Xu Zhiyi raised his eyebrows and said, "Call again."
Shen Ning just remembered something, feeling helpless, but she didn't want to argue with him, so she followed his meaning and called out, "Uncle."
Only then did Xu Zhiyi nod.
"I came here to tell you that I have to go out for a few days for something. When I return, I will go back to the capital. If you are willing to go back to the capital with your mother, we can go together."
Shen Ning hadn't decided whether to go to the capital, so she just responded, "I know."
Xu Zhiyi seemed to see her hesitation and said with a half-smile: "You still have a few days to think it over."
After saying this, he lowered the curtain, and the carriage turned around and slowly drove out of the alley.
In the yard behind him, Mu Yao, who was tending to the flowers and plants, raised his eyes, the corners of his lips curled up, and he looked very happy...
That night, Shen Ning was suddenly covered with her mouth while she was sleeping.
She suddenly opened her eyes and met July's tense gaze.
Qiyue raised a finger to signal her to be silent. Shen Ning nodded, and then saw Qiyue release her hand. Her voice was very low: "Miss, there are people outside, a lot of people, I will take you away first."
Shen Ning didn't know what had happened, but she trusted Qiyue. Upon hearing this, she calmly pulled her coat over and put it on. She tiptoed behind Qiyue and was about to leave through the window, but the next moment, the door was slammed open.
Qiyue suddenly dodged and stood in front of Shen Ning, but the next moment, she was stunned: "Mu Yao?"
Shen Ning was also shocked by the situation.
At the door, Mu Yao, dressed in red, stood there with a smile on his face, and said softly, "Ningning, where are you going?"
