Hu Rui smiled and said, "Who is Madam? Can she be manipulated casually?"
Sang Ye asked worriedly: "What should we do? Will the lady be okay?"
Ning Wei smiled and said, "Don't worry, sir is here. Come on, sir, let's go take a look.
I saw that Chang Le only brought vegetables back, not rice.
You two stay and make a fire to cook some rice. My husband and I will go and come back."
Zaohua was worried and asked: "Miss, are you really okay?"
Ning Wei patted Zaohua on the shoulder, "Don't worry, nothing happened."
After saying that, Ning Wei stepped out and walked out.
Hu Rui followed Ning Wei out of Fangfei Garden. Hu Rui asked: "Miss, have you thought about it? How to deal with Zhao?"
Ning Wei smiled and said, "There's nothing to think about. Treat him the way he should."
When Hu Rui heard this, he smiled and said, "What a great idea! What do I need to do next?"
Ning Wei shook her head, "I don't know, I'll just adapt to the situation. As long as I don't suffer a loss, I'll do whatever comes my way."
Hu Rui nodded, "Okay, I understand."
Ning Wei and Hu Rui walked to the door of Jing'an Hall and heard Mrs. Zhao's sharp voice coming from the hall.
"If she lacks money, she can ask me for it. What's going on if she forces Sister He to do it? Huh?"
Ning Wei and Hu Rui looked at each other and walked up to the main room.
"Mom, you are the one to judge. Is what Sister Wei did right?"
“To dare to act so recklessly at such a young age is simply audacious.
Those who knew, said she was the eldest daughter of Ning Yuanwailang's house; those who didn't know, thought she was a bandit.
She has brought disgrace to several generations of the Ning family. Mother, you must give me an explanation today. Otherwise..."
"What else?" Ning Wei walked to the door and asked.
Mrs. Xiao Zhao stopped talking, turned to look at the door, pointed at Ning Wei and cursed: "You are such a rebellious scourge.
How dare you try to extort He'er's money? It's so audacious.
If I don't teach you well today, I'll be sorry to all the ancestors of the Ning family.
Someone, please take this evil to me and take it to the ancestral hall."
Mrs. Zhao had thought that as soon as Ning Wei came to Jing'an Hall, she would strike first, control Xiao Nizi, and then slowly take care of her.
Several powerful women received the order and immediately walked towards Ning Wei.
Mrs. Qian did not expect that Zhao would take action directly, and hurriedly shouted: "Stop!"
The mother-in-law stopped and looked at Mrs. Zhao.
Mrs. Zhao didn't take Mrs. Qian seriously at all, "Mom, my daughter-in-law is Sister Wei's mother, and she has the responsibility to teach Sister Wei.
Sister Wei has made such a big mistake, and if she is not taught timely, it will definitely lead to catastrophe in the future and affect her family."
Mrs. Qian was extremely angry and said to Mrs. Zhao: "I'm not dead yet!"
Mrs. Zhao took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and said slowly: "It's so good, why did mother say that she will die? How unlucky!
Yes, Sister Wei has been taught by her mother all these years. However, now that her mother is ill, as a daughter-in-law, how can she tire her mother anymore? Let her worry about these things?
From now on, the responsibility of educating Sister Wei will be borne by the daughter-in-law. Mother can also take care of herself with peace of mind."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Mrs. Qian to speak again, Mrs. Xiao Zhao said to the servant: "Why don't you send this scourge to the ancestral hall quickly?"
The mother-in-law received the order and walked towards Ning Wei one after another.
Mrs. Qian was worried that Ning Wei would suffer a loss, so she wanted to stand up anxiously, her chest rose and fell rapidly, and her face turned pale.
Yueniang was worried that Mrs. Qian was in a hurry to do something bad, so she quickly comforted her: "Madam, calm down, your health is important. What should you do if you have any trouble? Mr. Hu is with the young lady, and the eldest lady will be fine."
Yue Niang said the last sentence very softly, so softly that only Mrs. Qian could hear it.
Mrs. Qian's heart suddenly calmed down after hearing Yue Niang's words.
At the door, just when a woman's hand was about to touch Ning Wei, Hu Rui slipped Ning Weiti behind him.
At the same time, Hu Rui raised his leg and kicked the mother-in-law to the ground.
Hu Rui's movements were too fast. Everyone only saw her pulling Ning Wei behind, but almost didn't see how she put the mother-in-law down.
Seeing the mother-in-law falling, the others took a cautious step back.
When Mrs. Zhao saw Hu Rui kicking her mother-in-law to the ground, she screamed: "Reverse, reverse, this disaster has occurred. If you come together, I will tie up this disaster."
After hearing what Mrs. Zhao said, Grandma Qin raised her voice and said, "Did you hear what Madam said? Let's all come forward together. Don't move back. We must arrest the eldest lady."
Hu Rui looked at everyone and said to Ning Wei, "Miss, don't worry, I'm with you and I won't let you get hurt."
Ning Wei said: "I know, sir, let go of your hands and feet and vent your anger for me."
"Don't worry, miss, I understand."
Hu Rui pulled Ning Wei and was surrounded by a group of maids and women, but the maids and women did not dare to step forward.
A woman got a stick from nowhere and swung it at Ning Wei.
Hu Rui was happy, "I'm worried about not having any weapons. This idiot is good. He knows how to send me weapons."
It was too late, but soon, Hu Rui raised his hand to grab the stick and pulled the stick around. The woman was pulled to the ground by the rotating stick.
Hu Rui took the stick in his hand and whispered to Ning Wei: "Miss, let's go and teach Mrs. Zhao a lesson."
Ning Wei nodded and said: "Okay!"
After Ning Wei finished speaking, Hu Rui waved the stick in his hand and hit anyone he saw.
The maid and mother-in-law were in pain and ran around holding their heads.
When Mrs. Zhao saw it, her face turned gray and she stood up hurriedly.
Hu Rui held Ning Wei with one hand and waved the stick with the other, cursing: "I told you to bully the lady. I told you to bully the lady."
There were people crying, screaming, hiding, and howling ghosts and wolves in the room.
Mrs. Zhao turned pale with fright and hid in all directions.
Hu Rui beat Zhao all the way, raised his stick, and took advantage of the chaos to hit Zhao on the back, buttocks, and legs.
Seeing Mrs. Zhao being knocked to the ground, Grandma Qin pulled Jinzhu and lay on Ms. Zhao, shouting, "If you rebel, if you rebel, madam, you dare to hit her."
Hu Rui didn't seem to hear, and then swung the stick at Nanny Qin.
"Ouch!" Grandma Qin howled in pain and stopped yelling.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Ning He quickly jumped on the soft couch and hid behind Mrs. Qian, watching and screaming.
Within a moment, the ground was covered with maids and women lying in various directions, and moans could be heard one after another.
Hu Rui waved the stick in his hand and tried to attack the lying person.
Ning Wei stopped him and said, "Sir, forget it."
Hu Rui made a "snort" sound in his nose, slammed his stick on the ground twice, and said, "I want to see who dares to be disrespectful to the lady."
Mrs. Zhao sat up with Jin Zhu's support, pointed at Ning Wei and cursed: "You rebellious little bitch..."
Before Mrs. Zhao could finish her scolding, she felt a dull pain in her chest, and she immediately fell to the ground. At the same time, the sound of sticks falling to the ground was heard in the room.
"Good fight, if you are disrespectful as an elder, Sister Wei can be disrespectful as a child!" Mrs. Qian said angrily.
Mrs. Qian's words almost made Mrs. Zhao angry.
Nanny Qin endured the pain on her body and bent down to help Zhao, "Madam, are you okay?"
Mrs. Zhao was so painful that she could not speak. She covered her chest with her hands and closed her eyes for a moment. She waited until the pain dissipated before opening her eyes.
Seeing Madam Xiao Zhao with her eyes closed in pain, Grandma Qin shouted in panic: "Madam, wake up. Madam, don't scare me, please wake up."
Nanny Qin was so frightened that she could only hold Mrs. Zhao in her arms and cry.
Jin Zhu stared at Mrs. Zhao nervously, and when she saw Mrs. Zhao opened her eyes, she shouted: "Madam is awake."
Nanny Qin wiped away her tears and looked at Mrs. Zhao. When she saw Mrs. Zhao reaching out to her, she quickly stretched out her hand to help Mrs. Zhao sit up.
Hu Rui walked over. When Mrs. Zhao saw her coming, she was so frightened that she put her hands on the ground, took two steps back, and asked in panic: "What are you going to do?"
Hu Rui walked to Mrs. Xiao Zhao, bent down and picked up the stick on the ground, then raised the stick in his hand and said, "Madam, don't panic, I'm just picking up the stick."
However, the stick in my hand has holes in it, and it will beat people who do evil things, talk nonsense, and act disrespectfully.
Therefore, I would like to remind you, madam, to think through your words when speaking, so as not to get beaten again later."
Everything Hu Rui said was a clear threat.
Zhao was so angry that she wanted to curse, but when she saw the stick in Hu Rui's hand, she swallowed the curse again.
When Mrs. Qian saw Mrs. Zhao succumbing to Hu Rui's lewd force, she felt indescribably relieved.
Mrs. Qian said twice, cleared her throat, and said, "Sister Wei, Mrs. Zhao said that you went to Cuixue Pavilion to find Sister He and asked for 50,000 taels of silver. Is this the case?"
Ning Wei nodded and said, "Go back to grandma, this is indeed the case."
Before the word "bitch" came out of her mouth, Zhao quickly changed her words.
Mrs. Qian looked sideways at Mrs. Zhao and said with a cold face: "I am asking questions, please shut up first."
Mrs. Zhao was very shameless and wanted to talk back.
Hu Rui deliberately dropped the stick to the ground.
Mrs. Zhao heard the sound of the stick falling to the ground and decisively shut her mouth.
Madam Qian cast her gaze on Ning Wei and then asked: "Sister Wei, tell me, what is going on?"
Ning Weifu said: "Back to grandma, this afternoon, Wei'er did go to Cuixue Pavilion to find her second sister and took 50,000 taels of silver.
However, that was Wei'er's money."
"What? Your money?" Ning He didn't expect that Ning Wei would brazenly say that the money was hers.
Ning Wei looked at Ning He with an innocent face, "Second sister, I know that you spend money like water on weekdays and are used to spending money lavishly.
Fifty thousand taels of silver is nothing in your eyes. How you spend your own money, I have no right to interfere with, but the money you borrow from me must always be returned to me, right?"
Ning He laughed angrily, pointed at himself, and said in disbelief: "You said, I borrowed your silver? Oh, fifty thousand taels of silver, do you have it? What a joke."
Ning Wei ignored Ning He's sneer and said seriously: "Second sister, what do you mean by this? Borrowing money and refusing to accept the debt? This means you want to default on the debt, right?
Second sister, let me tell you, failing to repay borrowed money is a matter of moral character and is very serious!"
Ning He raised his hand to stop him and said, "Shut up! Sister said I borrowed your money. Then tell me, where and when did I borrow your money? What is the proof?"
Ning Wei sneered, turned to Hu Rui and said, "On that day, I should have listened to your husband and established a written document."
Hu Rui said cooperatively: "Young lady, you are too soft-hearted and too sentimental. Alas! You will gain wisdom by taking every step."
Ning Wei sighed, turned to look at Ning He, and then said: "Looking at the posture of the second sister, she is planning not to admit it.
Grandma, what happened is this. On June 26, Wei'er and her husband went to Sajin Street to look at a shop and wanted to buy it.
By coincidence, I met my second sister at the entrance of Zhenbao Pavilion on Sajin Street.
The second sister said that she was attracted to a jade hairpin with a red and phoenix pattern from the Zhenbao Pavilion.
This hairpin was made by the head of the Tangxi family. Looking at the world, this hairpin alone is sold at Lingbao Pavilion for 68,000 taels of silver.
The second sister didn't have enough banknotes, so she asked Wei'er to borrow some.
Wei'er didn't want to borrow it at first, but the second sister said she would return it to Wei'er later.
Wei'er thought about her sisters and would help her if she could, so she lent the money to her second sister.
At that time, the second sister ordered the banknotes in front of Wei'er and her husband."
Mrs. Qian looked at Hu Rui and asked, "Mr. Hu, is this something?"
Hu Rui leaned forward and said, "Back to Madam, everything you say is true."
"You, you guys..." Ning He looked at Ning He dumbfounded. She was so shocked by Ning Wei's ability to tell lies with her eyes open that she was speechless.
At the end of June, she did buy a Tang Xi hairpin at Zhenbao Pavilion. On that day, she met Ning Wei and Hu Rui on Sajin Street and casually showed it off to Ning Wei.
It is true that the hairpin cost 68,000 taels of silver, but she paid for it herself. When did she borrow the money from her?
This little bitch is so hateful.
Mrs. Qian turned to look at Ning He and asked, "Sister He, did you go to Zhenbao Pavilion to buy a hairpin on June 26?"
Ning He couldn't refute, there was a record of the shipment from Zhenbao Pavilion, "Yes, He'er did buy the hairpin that day."
Mrs. Qian then asked: "That hairpin cost 68,000 taels of silver?"
Ning He nodded again, "Yes! However, that is my granddaughter's own money, and she did not borrow any money from my eldest sister."
Ning Wei snorted coldly from her nose, "Second sister really wants to default on the debt."
Ning He was extremely angry and said angrily: "Didn't pay? What a joke. Should I borrow fifty thousand taels of silver from my eldest sister?"
With her two mouths opening and closing, the eldest sister dared to spit out anything.
The eldest sister doesn’t take a look in the mirror to see if she has fifty thousand taels of silver?
No matter Ning Herubao attacked him personally, Ning Wei was not annoyed and said calmly: "The fifty thousand taels of silver are the profits from my grandmother's shop over the years, and they have been kept with my grandmother.
After I grew up, my grandmother gave me the money so that I could learn to take care of household chores and let me use it as capital.
Second sister can ask grandma if this is true?"
Ning He looked at Mrs. Qian, who said: "It is true.
The fifty thousand taels of silver in Sister Wei's hand were given to her by me.
Sister He, Sister Wei trusts you and lends you money. It is convenient for you. You should be grateful.
Although money is something external to the body, brothers must also settle accounts clearly. What is borrowed is borrowed, and what is given is given.
Since you borrowed it from Sister Wei in the first place, you should pay it back. This is your duty when you borrow something."
