Xiaoxiao laughed so much that she could hardly hold the reins, so Rong Yan controlled the horse for her with a doting look on his face, while always paying attention to her safety.

Yun Er, Yun Yan and others were already numb. They looked at the sky and chatted: "The girl is really talented. She learned to ride a horse so quickly."

"Yes, yes, but where did our master find this horse? It actually looks exactly like the girl's Fengchi. How did the girl say that word? Is this a deliberate show of affection to us? "

"Can you please stop mentioning this? I tried so hard to pretend I couldn't see it."

The master was really over the top. He kept talking sweetly to the girl along the way, and even these details were stuffed full of dog food.

They say people are timid when they are close to home, and Xiaoxiao is no different. When she saw the entrance to the county town, she pulled Rong Yan down and rubbed her hands nervously: "Brother, do you think I should go to see my father or my mother first?"

Rong Yan patted the back of her hand patiently: "Uncle Ning is worried that Aunt Ning will be inconvenient at home, so he has rented a yard in the county to take her there for delivery. Your second brother can also take care of her at any time."

Xiaoxiao reacted slowly and realized that she had forgotten that she had told her eldest brother about this.

I don’t know if it was Xiaoxiao’s saying “Reading ten thousand books is worse than traveling ten thousand miles” that resonated with Dean Lu. After Ning Ansheng completed the border peace talks with his master, he was dragged by Dean Lu to embark on the road to study. , saying that they wanted to go home slowly while watching the scenery along the way, so Xiaoxiao and Rong Yan both went back to the capital and then to Xijiang County. They were still wandering on the road.

It is very reassuring to have someone arranged by Rong Yan to follow Xiaoxiao, and Dean Lu has a bright vision and high knowledge. With him providing one-on-one private tutoring to the elder brother, the future of the elder brother is bound to be limitless, but it is a pity that the elder brother cannot see anything at home. A son is born.

"Brother Ning studies hard. Now that Dean Lu can personally lead him to appreciate the local culture, mountains and rivers, he will definitely reach a higher level."

Xiaoxiao understands the truth. The diligence of his eldest brother when he was studying is beyond the reach of most people. However, he has stayed in Fuyuan Village since he was born and has only seen the three-acre land. In terms of knowledge, he is indeed not as good as those princes and grandsons. But The appearance of Dean Lu just made up for these shortcomings.

She believed in her elder brother and also believed in Dean Lu.

Putting all those sorrowful thoughts aside, Xiaoxiao straightened up her appearance and rode towards the imperial field.

At this time, Ning Fengnian was checking the fullness of the rice ears and grains. He told Magistrate Shen: "It should be in the next few days that water can be pumped."

Magistrate Shen has 100% trust in Ning Fengnian's experience, and his judgment is basically the same as that of his own agricultural officials. If he doesn't rush to harvest grain in these few days, he may have to catch up with rainy days again.

"However, the imperial envoy arranged by the imperial court has not arrived yet. Should we wait any longer?"

Hearing this question, Magistrate Shen, who had never revealed the identity of the imperial envoy in order to surprise him, showed a mysterious smile: "No, no, don't worry, Brother Ning, the imperial envoy is a reasonable person, and he definitely doesn't want us to wait for him. He will miss the opportunity to harvest.”

Ning Fengnian was still hesitant when he heard a familiar voice say.

"Your Majesty the County Magistrate is right, just do as you say, Dad."

Ning Fengnian was stunned at first, and then his face turned into a smile: "Xiaoxiao! Why are you back!"

Xiaoxiao was about to jump off the horse. This action made Ning Fengnian frightened. Fortunately, Rong Yan had quick eyesight and quick hands and was able to catch him. Xiaoxiao didn't care about his fierce look and glare, and ran towards Ning Fengnian with the help of his strength.

"Dad! I miss you!"

Ning Fengnian smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth: "Hey, hey, hey, OK, OK."

Then he belatedly looked at the young man who had just supported his daughter.

"See Your Highness, Third Prince!"

I didn't recognize it just now, but when I took a closer look, I saw that this was none other than Young Master Ayan who lived next door to them and is now the Third Highness!

Rong Yan did not let Ning Fengnian complete the ceremony, but bowed himself: "Uncle Ning, long time no see."

"I never had the chance to personally thank you for taking care of me, and apologize to you for concealing my identity."

Ning Fengnian didn't even dare to say anything, and was very cautious towards Rong Yan.

After all, he is a native of Daxia and has a natural respect for the royal family. Xiaoxiao does not force him. The concept of equality for everyone belongs to modern times. If he insists on changing their minds under the banner of doing good for them, it will not help them progress, but It hurt them.

So Xiaoxiao waited for Ning Fengnian to calm down a little before she started to ask about the changes in her family these days. When she heard that his second brother had to postpone the wedding to wait for her, Xiaoxiao felt moved and guilty at the same time.

"I'm really wronged, Sister Jiao'er."

Ning Fengnian laughed: "What you don't know is that even if your second brother agreed to go ahead with the marriage, the daughter of the Qian family refused. She wants you to witness their marriage more than your second brother."

Xiaoxiao just laughed and showed off her personality charm to Rong Yan, which made Ning Fengnian straighten his tongue and speak.

"At first I was worried that something might happen to the rice seeds, but I felt relieved after seeing these plump ears."

"This is the third round of new rice we have planted. Look at it like this, the harvest is no less than the previous times. I have told you before, some rice seeds have a good harvest after the first crop. It got worse after that. I have been worried about this situation for the past few months..."

Ning Fengnian started talking endlessly when he mentioned farming. When he reacted, he realized that his mouth was dry. Magistrate Shen, who had already experienced it, handed over the tea. Ning Fengnian was embarrassed to drink a whole cup. He stopped talking and went down to the ground to see his precious rice ears.

At this time, Magistrate Shen told Xiaoxiao in a concise and comprehensive manner the outcome of those people in Ning's old house.

The old lady had been punished for her evil deeds as soon as possible, and Old Man Ning and Uncle Ning were assigned to work. At first, they grumbled and tried to muddle through. Occasionally, they even deliberately mentioned that they had a close relationship with the General's Mansion in order to take advantage of the situation.

Later, "somehow", the grievances between the old house and the Ning family began to spread among the workers. Everyone knew that not only were they not relatives of the noble man, but they had a grudge. Their attitude suddenly changed, and all the dirty and tiring work was done to them. Throw it on your body.

I was lazy in the past, now I have to pay back twice as much.

Later, old man Ning really fell ill, but no one believed it. After all, he was old and died after only a few days.

What's ridiculous is that his youngest son, who he had high hopes for and pampered all his life, was indifferent to his death. The first thing he thought about was the trouble and expense of dealing with the funeral arrangements, so he asked someone to send a letter to Ning Fengnian to tell him that if he didn't care, he would use a tattered mat to kill him. The people were wrapped up and thrown into the mountains.

After learning about this, Ning Fengnian paid for a coffin for Old Man Ning, but at the same time, he also sent a message to Uncle Ning that he would fend for himself from now on and would not care about him again. No matter whether it was letters or oral messages, the Ning family would no longer pay attention.

Uncle Ning thought he was scaring him, but after he tried sending a few letters and found that they were actually returned, he regretted it.

If I had known earlier, I would have been nicer to my father. After all, it was also the reason for contact with the Ning family. Now that my father is dead, eldest brother, no, the Ning family has really severed ties with me...
