  Chapter 107 Mysterious mother-in-law

  Niu Niu's going or staying has become the biggest problem right now.

  The Chen family didn't want to let her go, and the old lady also felt that if Ma Ningxin had a child, it would be difficult for her to remarry in the future, so she persuaded Ma Ningxin to give up Niuniu.

The three-year-old girl, white and tender, with watery eyes, didn't quite understand what mother's departure meant, so she smiled and stuffed maltose, which was sticking with her own saliva, into her mouth: "Mother, eat candy. "

  Ma Ningxin plopped and knelt down in front of the old lady: "I'm leaving! I'm not leaving! I'm staying... Give him the dowry! Give him everything..."

  The old lady ordered someone to forcibly drag her into the car.

  Niu Niu waved at her mother sensiblely: "Remember to come back for dinner."

  The old lady was upset, everyone got into the carriage, got down again, and threw back the 10,000 taels of silver that the Chen family had compensated: "Niuniu, I took it away, and it has nothing to do with your Chen family from now on!"

  Ten thousand taels, enough to marry three daughters.

  The Chen family took the money and dared not say anything more.

  The old lady carried Niuniu into the carriage. In fact, she was ready to exchange all the dowry for Niu Niu. After all, money is something outside of the body, and the most important thing is people. Who would have thought that the Chen family's eyelids were so shallow that they would "sell" Niu Niu for 10,000 taels.

   "Good boy, they don't love you, grandma loves you." The old lady murmured, holding Niuniu on her lap.

  Niu Niu obediently nestled in the arms of the old lady, slowly backed away from the scenery outside the car window, and softly asked: "Grandma, where are we going?"

  The old lady stroked the top of her hair, her eyes were deep: "Go home."

  …

   On the way back to Majiagang, the imperial list came out.

   This is the second imperial list released by Emperor Wang one year after he ascended the throne.

  The Xiliang Dynasty officially changed its name to the Daxin Dynasty. Starting from this year, it will be the first year of the Daxin Dynasty.

  The emperor conferred the title of four concubines, Concubine Wu Gui from the An Guo Gongfu, Concubine Guo Shu from the Guo family, Concubine Yao Xian from the Yao family, and Concubine Jia De from the Jia family.

  Ning Yue curled up her lips coldly, no wonder Chen Bo dared to offend the Ma family so much, he dared to love the Jia family to produce a first-grade imperial concubine.

  Let's see who will have the last laugh, it's not certain!

  …

After fighting with Chen Bo, the old lady and the three old masters looked at Ning Yue differently, and asked her privately how she knew that Chen Bo belonged to Chen Hai. Ning Yue was embarrassed to say that she had accepted someone else's note, so she said I heard what my aunt said. Mrs. Chen was completely rejected by her natal family. She had a chance to take the blame and make meritorious service. She wished to embrace her. How could she dare to expose Ning Yue?

  But the third old master still severely reprimanded Mrs. Chen, telling Mrs. Chen to go to the ancestral hall to kneel for an hour every day, and temporarily hand over the care of the middle class in the mansion to Qifang.

After Ma Ningxin and Niuniu were settled, the third old master quietly found the old lady: "Sister-in-law, Yue'er is much more powerful than I imagined. Our Ma family, if there are two more like this, we will not worry about not being able to prosper." .”

  The old lady understood what he meant, sighed and said nothing.

  The third old master thought she didn't understand, and said bluntly: "Do you want to think about marrying Ning Xi to Xuan Yin and Yue'er to Xuan Yu?"

  The old lady told about Xuanyin rescuing Ning Yue from under the horse's hooves, and the third old lady also sighed.

  …

  In the afternoon, Ning Yue lay on the bed, tossing and turning, wondering who wrote the note to her. Who knows her things so well? As if he had been watching her secretly.

strangeness.

  Qiuxiang and Dongmei cleaned up the room, and asked Ning Yue what to do with the longevity pills. Ning Yue gave five bottles to the old lady and five bottles to the third old man. Originally, I wanted to give some to Ma Ningxin, but she was pregnant, so it was better not to take tonics indiscriminately.

  Qiuxiang and Dongmei went to deliver medicines separately, while Ning Yue went out alone, wondering if the old lady had set up a stall today, and wanted to settle the one thousand two hundred taels of silver with her.

  Ding County is not big, and it took only a quarter of an hour to walk to the market. From a distance, Ning Yue saw the old woman from that day. It seemed that the old lady had already taken the things from the **** shop, but she had obviously started to close the stall, and Ning Yue didn't stop calling, so she just walked away.

  Ning Yue quickly followed.

   Regardless of how old the old lady was, she walked faster than Ning Yue, and she went up the mountain in a short while.

  Ning Yue was panting, too tired to scream, and managed to climb to the top of the mountain, but unexpectedly saw Xuan Yu.

   Xuan Yu wore a clean and tidy white brocade suit with his sleeves rolled up, carrying water, carrying firewood, and chopping firewood like an ordinary farmer. After finishing these, he picked up a broom to clean the courtyard. He scanned very carefully, his eyes were as clear as water, and it could be seen that he was really doing these things with great care.

  After clearing the fallen leaves and snow in the yard, he was sweating profusely. After washing his hands with water, he put the mattress on the clothesline back in.

  Ning Yue was dumbfounded.

  The eldest son who was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, would actually do this kind of menial work?

Soon, the old woman came out, carrying three bowls of vegetables and one bowl of rice, without even looking at Xuan Yu, she sat on the stone bench that Xuan Yu had wiped clean, put the vegetables away, and ate by herself up.

   Xuan Yu seemed to be used to this kind of cold reception, took out a bottle of Longevity Pill from his bosom, and gently placed it on the stone table.

  Ning Yue blinked, the old woman's longevity pill was originally given by Xuan Yu, no wonder it was more than the emperor's. But... who is Xuan Yu, the old woman? Xuan Yu treats her so well! But she didn't seem to want to see Xuan Yu at all.

   "Okay, you've finished your work, and I've accepted the medicine, so let's go!" The old woman gave the order to evict the guest without politeness.

  Besides Xuan Yin, Ning Yue has never seen anyone who dared to speak to Xuan Yu in such a tone, but Xuan Yu was not angry at all, and stood aside respectfully, asking: "Has Xiao Yin ever been here?"

  The old lady said without thinking: "No!" After finishing speaking, she realized that she had answered too simply.

Sure enough, Xuan Yu's tense expression loosened slightly: "If Xiao Yin comes, please tell him, the family members are very worried about him, and hope that he will come back soon. Also, about Xuan Zhao's matter... I will not pursue it. "

   "Huh!" The old lady made a nasal sound with disdain, but her face was not as dark as before.

  After Xuan Yu left, the old lady put down her chopsticks and said slowly, "Come out! Why are you hiding?"

   Ning Yue was taken aback, was discovered? Just as he was about to go out, he saw Xuanyin crawling out of the chimney smiling.
