Ning Zhihuan couldn't help but sneer when he saw her standing next to Hu Cui.
"I thought my cousin's clothes were too tattered to be seen in public, but it turned out to be just a few buttons undone?"
Sun Wei was extremely angry, but she endured it again and again.
Her current role is that of a victim, and as a victim she cannot act too strong.
It’s better to make an appointment with someone who is more pitiful.
What Sun Wei was not convenient to say, Hu Cui would naturally say.
Hu Cui's pair of triangular eyes were very sharp, and her wrinkled face was wrinkled into a ball. She was very dissatisfied: "What do you mean by this?"
Ning Zhihuan spread his hands, looking innocent.
"I just said that my elder brother is quite kind to women."
No one present had expected that Ning Zhihuan could still make jokes.
Xiao Yuchi almost suffered internal injuries from holding it in.
Hu Cui didn't want to mess around with her, so she just looked at Old Lady Ning, who was acting as if she wouldn't stop until she gave it to someone.
"You can see for yourself. Anyway, this is your grandson's fault. We can't miss out on the wedding and the betrothal gifts!"
Before Old Lady Ning could say anything, Ning Zhihuan said with a smile, "How much do you want as a betrothal gift?"
"At least 10,000!" Hu Cui said without thinking.
Ning Zhihuan nodded. It seemed that Ning Hong had even told them how much they wanted. She really took care of every detail.
However, Hu Cui is really bold in saying this.
In this era, it is rare to have a family with a monthly income of 10,000 yuan. Marrying off your granddaughter can make you a family with a monthly income of 10,000 yuan. How can such a good thing happen in this world?
"I say, Third Grandma, are you still dreaming?" Ning Zhihuan rolled her eyes, and her eyeballs were almost invisible, and they were almost rolling up to the sky.
"You...what are you talking about, little girl? What does it have to do with you?"
If she didn't still have some sense, she would have started cursing the moment she caught him.
Didn’t you see that Old Mrs. Ning, who is in charge of the family, didn’t say anything?
She was already tolerant enough of a little girl making noises next to her.
She looked at Old Lady Ning, hoping that she would speak up to stop Ning Zhihuan.
But Old Lady Ning avoided her gaze.
Hu Cui was furious.
"Well, you ungrateful thing, you've taught a bunch of little ungrateful bastards, right? Wu Xiuying, don't forget what you said!"
Old Mrs. Ning's mouth moved but she couldn't speak.
"Third grandma, I wonder if my grandma had an arranged marriage with your daughter Sun Wei or something? You have been emphasizing this matter since you came in." Ning Zhihuan used provocation to encourage Hu Cui to tell her about the past.
She had to know why Old Lady Ning was willing to be controlled by others and why she didn't say a word to defend Ning Zhilang at this time.
She didn't believe that Old Lady Ning didn't know who Ning Zhilang was.
Upon hearing this, Hu Cui sneered three times, "You want to know, right? Okay, then I'll tell you openly so you can have an idea. Your Ning family will be indebted to us, grandparents and grandchildren, for the rest of our lives!"
Ning Zhihuan didn't like Hu Cui's smug look, but he didn't say anything. He just waited quietly for her to speak.
"Your grandmother has personally admitted that she will support me and our family for the rest of her life. Even though we don't meet, she sends money to our family every year. Now, do you understand?"
Ning Zhihuan and Ning Zhilang both looked at Old Lady Ning in surprise. Old Lady Ning stood straight, but Ning Zhihuan could see her fragility from it.
The originally tough old lady seemed particularly weak at this moment.
"Why?" Ning Zhihuan did not doubt Old Lady Ning just because of Hu Cui's few words.
"Why?" Hu Cui sneered, "Because your grandmother's education was supported by our Ning family. That's why our Ning Guojun couldn't go to high school!"
Ning Zhihuan almost couldn't hold back her laughter when she heard this. She thought it was some kind of murder or arson, a major event that Hu Cui helped to conceal, but in the end, it was just like this?
It is no wonder that Mrs. Ning is more open-minded than other old men and women, and it is no wonder that Mrs. Ning has always supported Li Xueyan in taking the college entrance examination.
It turns out that it’s because she herself is a high school student.
The college entrance examination had not been resumed in that era, so there were not many opportunities to get into university.
But as a high school student, a female high school student, its value is self-evident.
Unexpectedly
"Oh, so it was my great-grandparents who gave my grandmother the money to go to school. But what does this have to do with you, Hu Cui? And what does this have to do with her, Sun Wei?"
Ning Zhihuan emphasized the words "Hu" and "Sun" to remind them that they had different surnames.
Hu Cui naturally refused and opened her mouth to refute.
Ning Zhihuan spoke even faster, "Besides, why support my grandma but not Sun Wei's grandpa...?" She dragged out her words, a look of ridicule on her face, "Could it be because Sun Wei's grandpa is not as good at studying as my grandma?"
Hu Cui stiffened her neck and blushed, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Ning Zhihuan spread his hands and said, "Don't worry, I'm just asking because I don't know the situation. Could it be true?"
Hu Cui opened her mouth, looking pale and weak.
Isn't that the truth?
This is why, in that environment where boys are favored over girls, and even though Old Lady Ning’s surname was clearly not Ning, the Ning family’s ancestor chose to support Old Lady Ning’s studies instead of Sun Wei’s grandfather.
In fact, what she said was conservative. It was not just that she was inferior in academics, but she was inferior in every aspect.
Mrs. Ning was originally the daughter of a landlord and had received an education. However, after the founding of New China, the anti-landlord movement was launched, and she was forced to marry in a hurry.
Sun Wei's grandfather had a bad temper. Not to mention that he could barely attend high school after graduating from junior high school, even if he could go to high school and become successful in the future, he would not help all the sisters and brothers in the room.
I'm afraid he just wants to kick all these people away.
So the choice of the Ning family ancestor was right.
It’s a pity that because of her identity as a landlord’s daughter, Mrs. Ning was rejected by the university.
But even so, she did not complain.
He has taken good care of the house inside and out over the years and never mentions the past.
Therefore, none of these younger generations knew that Grandma Ning had attended high school.
Hu Cui didn't have anything to say, but Ning Zhihuan did.
She spoke more and more excitedly, "Besides, my grandma said she would take care of Grandpa Sun Wei for the rest of her life, but didn't Third Grandpa pass away a long time ago? Aren't you just asking for money?"
Hu Cui was so angry that her eyes were wide open. When it came to talking, there were really few people who could match Ning Zhihuan.
Hu Cui had no choice but to turn her attention to Old Lady Ning. "Wu Xiuying, are you just going to watch your granddaughter humiliate me?"
Old Mrs. Ning patted Ning Zhihuan's hand but did not scold him.
In the final analysis, I am prepared to turn a blind eye to the problem.
She is very clear-headed and knows what is important and what is not.
