Chapter 219 - 219 Thoughts

219 Thoughts

Madam Li couldn’t figure it out. Why was this jade pendant related to Princess Consort Jin?

“Miss, you…”

“What Miss?! My daughter is the future heiress of Prince Jin and is personally conferred the title of Princess Mingyue by the emperor. Why do you still want my daughter to marry your son? Is your entire family worthy?” Madam He was furious.

Princess Mingyue?

Madam Li was stunned. Her legs went limp and she fell to her knees, looking like she had nothing to live for. Wang Da was even more afraid.

If the woman in front of him was only Wang Jing’s boss, it was not impossible for him to marry into her family. However, this woman was actually the future wife of the heir of Prince Jin! He could not afford to provoke her!

No, no, no. Even if she was not the future heiress of Prince Jin, she was still a princess conferred by the emperor!

He was afraid. Really afraid.

“I’m sorry, Your Highness. Please be magnanimous and spare us. We thought of the wrong idea.” Wang Da knelt on the ground.

Ning Yue sneered. No matter what these people were thinking, she turned to Wang Jing and said, “Remember, that jade pendant is a symbol of my status. Wear it properly for me. If I don’t see it, I will have to punish your entire family.”

Hearing Ning Yue mention her family, Madam Li’s eyes darkened and she fainted on the ground.

“In addition, the workshop can’t be absent for no reason. Even on your day off, you have to report to us,” Ning Yue said to Wang Jing with a smile.

Wang Jing’s heart warmed. She did not expect Ning Yue to help her to this extent.

“Thank you, Your Highness. I will definitely work hard to repay you.” Wang Jing knelt down and kowtowed to Ning Yue.

This was the first time Ning Yue had accepted someone else’s kowtow and she was a little uncomfortable, but she knew that she had to endure it. She was supporting Wang Jing now.

She wanted to use Wang Jing’s matter to warn those who favored boys over girls that women could still do great things.

“Also, if you can’t work well because of someone, I have to punish them well,” Ning Yue said.

On the surface, Ning Yue seemed to be talking about Wang Jing, but she was actually warning the Wang family.

If the Wang family dared to use this reason to hit Wang Jing or punish her, don’t blame her for being rude.

Seeing this, Madam He hurriedly pulled Wang Jing, who was still kneeling on the ground.

“Alright, Yueyue is just concerned about you. Don’t feel too burdened. Just work hard in the future,” Madam He said with a smile.

Ning Yue instructed Wang Jing a few more times before leaving with Madam He and the others.

As for what the Wang family would become, it would depend on Wang Jing. If Wang Jing was still so weak, she would take it that she had misjudged her.

After Ning Yue left the Wang family, she went straight to the brewery. There were still many things waiting for them here.

What the five of them did not know was that their matter at the Wang family today had already been spread. Many villagers were praising Ning Yue’s actions. Of course, there were admiration and disapproval.

The people who praised Ning Yue were women. They had been oppressed by their in-laws for a long time and had always yearned to be liberated.

Now that Ning Yue had set an example in the Wang family, they were naturally happy.

Those who did not appreciate it were those with feudal thoughts. Since ancient times, the idea of men being superior to women had been ingrained in them. They did not want to change it.

Ning Yue also knew these things very well. She could not be anxious. She had to take it one step at a time.

After busying themselves in the brewery for a while, the five of them returned to the Ning family during their break.

Ning Yue was about to return to her room when she passed by Old Master Ning’s room and saw a jade pendant that had fallen to the side.

She picked up the jade pendant and looked at it. She remembered that this jade pendant was Old Master Ning’s favorite.

In the entire Ning family, she was the most doted on child. Old Master Ning also doted on her the most. When she was young, Old Master Ning would try his best to get her anything she wanted. However, no matter what she told Old Master Ning, he was unwilling to give her this jade pendant.

If she was anxious, Old Master Ning would let her play with the jade pendant, but only for a moment. She would have to return it to Old Master Ning later.

Ning Yue was about to knock on the old man’s door when she was stopped.

“Yueyue, I know everything you did today. You did very well.” Ning Yue turned around and realized that Yuan Hui was talking to her. She smiled and replied, “Actually, I really want to do something to change the status of ancient women. However, I also know very well that we can’t rush this matter. Just look at the history we learned in the modern world.”
