Chapter 3

Ning family in Beiliu Town, Yangcheng, Zezhou, has been established for 270 years since their ancestors dug out the first piece of coal on the hills of Beiliu town.

More than a hundred years ago, the Ning family was not only a huge wealth. After the foundation was solid, the head of the Ning family spent his family's money to establish a clan school and hired famous teachers and scholars. The children of the family also lived up to their high expectations. In the following hundred years, 40 Gongsheng, 20 Ju people, nine Jinshi and six people entered the Imperial Academy, enjoying the reputation of "nine Jinshi for one virtue accumulation and six Imperial Academy for three generations of grace and honor". [Note 1]

Over the past hundred years, more than 40 children of the clan have been officials and have spread the reputation of the Ning family to the north and south. According to the genealogy, more than a dozen ancestral halls have been set up for the Ning family officials when they go to the official.

Now the old patriarch cizi Ningyan is the right waiter of the Ministry of work.

For such a century old family, it is incredible and intolerable for someone to dare to make such provocation and trouble.

Mrs. Ning Si was also very angry.

"If you want to hang yourself, you can hang yourself!" She stood up. "Sister-in-law, it's inconvenient for you to see her. I'll see her and make it clear to her."

Then he turned and left.

"Four younger brothers and sisters." Mrs. Ning shouted hurriedly to get up.

Mrs. Ning pressed her down.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. Let's go." She said.

Mrs. Ning looked at them helplessly and turned outward.

"You tell her well. It's pathetic. Don't scare her." She said uneasily, "and it depends on the face of the Fang family."

"Fang's face? Fang doesn't give us face. Why should we give him face?"

Instead of mentioning the Fang family, Mrs. Ning was even more angry when she mentioned it. She didn't wait for the eldest lady to speak again and went out with the girls and servants.

The room was quiet again. Mrs. Ning's face was no longer uneasy. She looked at the three girls standing aside with a faint look.

"Why did miss Jun come up with a way to threaten our family with suicide?" She asked suddenly.

The three girls looked at each other with twinkling eyes.

"Who knows, it must be that I can't sit still when I hear that my tenth brother is going to be engaged to miss yang." Said a girl.

"Yes, yes, since she met her brother ten at the Lantern Festival on August 15, she has become more and more shameless and reckless. Fortunately, her brother ten is not often at home. She preaches that she is our future sister-in-law among the young ladies in the city." Another girl said bitterly, "suddenly she went crazy when she heard that ten brothers were going to be engaged."

Mrs. Ning's eyes fell on Ning Yunyan who didn't speak.

"Yanyan, you told her about Miss Yang." She said.

Ning Yunyan has a flat mouth.

"I don't. I don't talk to her every day." She said, laughing again, "I just told Lin Jiner, but I told her not to tell others."

It's definitely not this. It should be something else. It's probably something related to miss Jun hanging herself.

Teenage girls can act naively and fearlessly.

Mrs. Ning frowned slightly.

"This matter has its own arrangements at home. You sisters are not allowed to participate in it, so as to save her reputation." She said.

But he didn't ask about it again, let alone reprimand it.

The three girls answered happily.

"I knew there was no need to worry." Ning Yunyan put her hand around her mother's arm and said with a smile, "she wants to die by herself. What are we afraid of her?"

"Besides, she's not dead." Another girl said, her eyes full of ridicule. "Do you still want to threaten our family because you don't dare to die? Who does she think she is?"

Mrs. Ning smiled rather than spoke.

"Mother, I've finished writing."

"Aunt, I've finished writing it, too."

The girls said with a diversion.

"OK, let me see. It's not well written, but it's a penalty." Said Mrs. Ning.

The girls immediately hugged Mrs. Ning and walked to the dongci room. It was lively and warm to talk and laugh.

The young lady of the gentleman's family doesn't have to take it seriously at all.

……………………………………….

Hearing the address of his wife from outside, the little girl who was holding out her hand to pinch the dessert on the table quickly stood up straight.

The curtain was lifted and the footsteps stopped indoors.

Miss Jun, who had been looking down quietly, looked up at the two ladies.

"Hey? Who is Mrs. Ning?" The little girl glared and asked.

The last time they came, they didn't even come in, let alone see Mrs. Ning. This time, they finally came in, and Mrs. Ning came to see them.

Which of the two ladies is the most expensive?

It's rude to have servants as long as there are masters.

Disdain flashed in the eyes of the two ladies of the Ning family.

"Tell us what's up." Mrs. Ning said.

What else does the little girl have to say? Miss Jun raised her hand to stop it.

"OK." She got up to salute and reached out to caress the white silk on the table.

Mrs. Ning San and Mrs. Ning Si's eyebrows jumped.

Threatened.

"Miss Jun, this marriage has been made very clear, and your grandfather's family has also made it clear. If you don't listen to what we are outsiders say, go and ask them. They are your relatives." Mrs. Ning said first.

"I know what you said. Don't ask any more." Miss Jun said, shaking away the white Ling on the table. There was a piece of paper under it. "Now that you have made it clear, let's talk about how to solve this matter."

She handed over the paper.

what is it?

Mrs. Ning San and Mrs. Ning Si looked at the thin paper handed over and were shocked when they saw the words clearly.

Wedding letter!

Mrs. Ning reached for it and looked at it incredulously.

It's a marriage letter, which clearly states the taboos of three generations and discusses that relatives have the official position of taking Pro real estate.

It is impossible for Mrs. Ning to write such a marriage letter. At first, she just said it casually.

Mr. Ning really wrote the marriage letter and was serious about concluding two in laws. At least at that time, he was sincere. As for when and why he didn't mention it later, no one knows that Mr. Ning is gone.

Why didn't you take out the marriage certificate before?

Without a marriage certificate, the Fang family, Miss Jun, live or die, they can keep down any trouble, but if there is a marriage certificate in hand, if Miss Jun really commits suicide, they would rather have some trouble at home.

This was indeed a threat. Mrs. Ning three and Mrs. Ning four looked at each other.

"Miss Jun, it's not that we don't recognize your marriage letter." Mrs. Ning Si said in a deep voice, "it's just that our old man has never taken out this marriage letter and has never mentioned this marriage in more than ten years."

"You don't know you haven't seen it. It's your business and has nothing to do with me." Miss Jun looked at her and said, her voice was still soft, without a trace of excitement, as plain as her expression.

This is not like the unruly and arrogant Miss Jun described by Ning Yunyan just now.

When I came to Yangcheng for half a year, I didn't take out the marriage certificate directly, but just publicized it and made it known to everyone. At this time, it's not so easy for the Ning family to cover up the matter and solve it.

She acted in a calculated way.

Mrs. Ning wanted to speak again. Mrs. Ning stopped her, looked at Miss Jun and smiled.

"Miss Jun, do you know what marriage is? Marriage is marriage, not hatred." She said, "sometimes you can use some means, but sometimes you can't use means. Otherwise, even if you can achieve your wish for a while, you will be sad for a lifetime."

Try every means to marry into Ning's family. The husband doesn't like it and the mother-in-law hates it. Even if he gets the status of his legitimate wife, how can he live better? Not to mention, there are many ways to make a legitimate wife give way.

Mrs. Ning San was born in Cangzhou and started as a bodyguard. Like the Ning family, she is now no longer a simple merchant's home. Her children are also officials who study more. However, the escort agency has always been operated. Mrs. Ning San's father is responsible for running the escort agency. Therefore, the children of the family have practiced martial arts while studying and practicing calligraphy.

Although Mrs. Ning didn't learn much, her temper was different from that of ordinary boudoir women, with a bit of arrogance.

If you can enter our house, we can make your life worse than death.

This is undoubtedly a naked threat.

"Miss Jun, you know that you are not suitable to be the daughter-in-law of our Ning family." Mrs. Ning Si, who was born in a reading family, said simply without threat.

The girl who had lost her parents and had to take refuge in her grandfather smiled instead of being angry or afraid.

"In that case, how are you going to get back this marriage letter and let me return the marriage?" She asked.

Well, it's the beginning of the divorce flow.

The new year begins. Let's start, too.
