Chapter 19 Poor Pathetic Hateful Thing

It was another busy day.

After frying the medicine that Mrs. Xu needed to eat, Ning Yan held the funnel, the smile on her face becoming deeper and deeper, she reached out to open Mrs. Xu's mouth and inserted the funnel.

One had to know that there were quite a few Coptis chinensis in the medicinal soup...

"Cough, cough …" "Cough …" The medicinal juice flowed down his throat, and the bitter taste lingered in his mouth. Mrs. Xu couldn't even pretend to be asleep anymore.

"You're awake? When you wake up, drink your own medicine. " After placing the bowl on the side of the bed, Ning Yan walked out.

There were a lot of things that required her to do with kitchen, but she didn't have the time to look after a person who had come to cause trouble time and time again.

Mrs. Xu was the only one left in the room.

Mrs. Xu did not want to die, she had not seen her son being an official, she had not become an official's wife yet.

He could only drink the medicine in the bowl while holding his nose.

After drinking the medicine, he stood up with the intent to go to the Ning Family Residence, but after sleeping for two days, other than the bitter medicine, he had nothing to eat. His body did not have any strength left, and just as he sat up, he lost his balance and fell on the ground.

Mrs. Xu opened her mouth wanting to call Ning Yan back.

He opened his mouth, and an extremely hoarse voice squeezed out from his throat. He spat out a simple word, and his throat felt as if it was being cut by a knife.

You can't yell at all. ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m

Mrs. Xu stretched out her hands and grabbed onto the bed, slowly moving so that she could not return to the bed. Looking at the shabby house, the table with missing legs, Mrs. Xu felt uncomfortable, she did not want to live in this kind of place.

This was not a place for humans to live at all. Although it was not easy to pass through the Ning Family, any daughter-in-law would always stay here. Mrs. Xu didn't feel that anything was amiss with Elder Mrs. Lee.

Ning Yan walked in with a bowl of porridge in her hands. Looking at the Mrs. Xu's resentful gaze, she realized that she did not hate the Mrs. Xu at all, she was just a pitiful woman. 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚

Not only was it pitiful, it was also lamentable!

He put the porridge on the stool beside the bed and left the room without a word.

Mrs. Xu lied down for ten days.

In the past few days, Ning Yan's new courtyard had already been built, but the newly built courtyard could not fit anyone.

"..."

"..."

Ning Family's courtyard.

Young Mrs. Lee squatted in the kitchen, holding two eggs in her hands. From time to time, she would glance at the house, where the old granny had scammed her private money, and even allowed her to take over Mrs. Xu's daily responsibilities for kitchen. She had already treated the house as her own, as if she was supposed to wash clothes and feed pigs to sweep the courtyard.

In the past few days, his hands had become rough and his face had become darker.

Damn old woman, why isn't she dead yet? After muttering a few words in her heart, she watched as Ning Wan'er pushed the door open and walked out. Only then did Young Mrs. Lee rush back into the house.

"Here, give me the egg." Ning Huan stuffed the egg in her hand into Ning Huan's hands. Eating two eggs to replenish your body is the best time for you to grow up. " Young Mrs. Lee was getting happier as she looked at the beautiful girl.

She wasn't good-looking, but her daughter was.

Each person in Ning Family looked better than the last. Marrying Ning Zhaohui was the most correct decision in his life.

"I understand. Mother, please go back to your kitchen and let your mother see it. She started scolding again."

"Got it, got it." The Young Mrs. Lee said as she closed the door, and quietly walked toward the kitchen.

When she was cooking, she used a spoon to dig out a spoonful of salt. She could not make the food taste good, or else the matters of kitchen would become hers in the future. That won't do.

When it was time to eat, Young Mrs. Lee buried her head into her food and did not even look at the pumpkin fried eggs on her plate.

"Pah …" "Pah pah!" The sound of Elder Mrs. Lee spitting could be heard. Young Mrs. Lee's head was drooping so low that it was almost buried in the bowl.

"Ol 'Two, you beat me to death for selling salt. You can't even cook a single dish properly, what else can you do?"

"…" Young Mrs. Lee placed the bowl in her hand on the table and whispered, "Why don't we call Mrs. Xu back?"

"You want to serve me when I call you back?" Elder Mrs. Lee's turbid gaze fell on Young Mrs. Lee's body, warning him from head to toe.

Young Mrs. Lee was instantly mute. She was already so busy, how could she have the time to wait upon others?

"Mother, give me a few coins, I'll sell two pig ears for food. Second sister's food is even worse than pig food, so she can eat it herself."

"Eat, eat, eat. You only know how to eat."

"Mother, I can still eat for a few more years. Once I'm married, even if you want to give me food, I won't be able to eat it." Ning Wan'er wrinkled her nose, looked at the Pumpkin Egg on the table, and started to look at it with disdain.

"Eat, eat. Let's finish eating all the money at home." Elder Mrs. Lee took out a few coins and threw it at Ning Wan'er.

Ning Wan'er bought a pig's ear and came back, she immediately mixed it with oil salt and leek, placed the plate beside him, and placed the broken piece into the Elder Mrs. Lee's bowl.

As for the second house? She couldn't be bothered to care about it. Madame Li had made the food so bad that Lady Li had to eat it herself.

"Mother, do you think that Ning Qianci will be able to pass the examination? If I don't pass the exam, then won't that mean I won't be able to marry into the county? "

"Pah pah pah, I'm sure I can pass the exam." When the Elder Mrs. Lee heard Ning Wan'er's words, she immediately spat twice. If not for the fact that she was counting on Ning Qianci to raise her, how could she raise the Mrs. Xu.

After spending so many years to support Ning Qianci in his studies, he definitely could not waste those silver coins.

If Ning Qianci really couldn't make it to the exam …

It was said that the county's Master Zhu's daughter had feelings for Ning Qianci. Master Zhu had plenty of money and had only one daughter.

If she really couldn't make it, then let Ning Qianci be her son-in-law. At that time, Master Zhu would definitely give her a large amount of silver.

With money, how could her daughter not find a good family?

As Ning Wan'er ate the pig ears and threads, he imagined her life as a wife in charge of the county. From time to time, she would chuckle foolishly.

Ning Huan sat beside Young Mrs. Lee, listening to the sound of food being eaten by Ning Wan'er, she felt a sense of disdain in her heart. With her tolerance, she wanted to marry some big family in the city, marrying that would be bullied.

As for the pig ear wire on the table, although Ning Huan also wanted to eat it, she was still able to control herself.

She would have to wait a little longer. Once she gained her title as High Scholar, she would have a good marriage relationship. When that happened, she would have everything with just a little bit of effort.

She looked very similar to her father. Her eyes were big, her mouth was small, her skin was white, and she could even seduce people. Moreover, she had learned how to read from her big brother.

Her future would definitely be better than Ning Wan'er's.

There was clearly a family sitting on the round table, but these people's thoughts were not used to it at all.

Ning Zhaohui was the same as the Lao Ning, he did not say a word, and continued to eat the food in the bowl.

"..."

"..."

Inside the thatched hut, Ning Yan looked at the scratches on Ning Zu's hands and then at Mrs. Xu who was pretty much recovered, and anger welled up in her heart: "You scratched him?"

He was just a bastard, why was she dressed better than him? Hearing Ning Yan's question, she was even more infuriated, she did not understand, why a girl who was so obedient would become so cruel, unfilial, and disobedient, thus she scolded loudly, "Why are you standing here instead of working, you bastard, you originally planned to sell him for money, what are you pretending to be a good person for!"

As soon as Mrs. Xu said this, Ning Yan clearly felt the hand that was holding onto her quiver a little.
