Last year's salary night, everyone in the Ning family had a meal with the Lin family and his son, and then went home.
Ning Xia observed Lin Pingzhen's expression and felt relieved when he saw that he was just shy as usual and was close to Uncle Lin. It seems that the conflict between father and son has been resolved.
Uncle Lin was extremely happy to see him, and he was as cheerful as ever. When he looked at Lin Pingzhen, his eyes were no different from those of an old father who dotes on his children in the world, and the emotion in his eyes almost overflowed. She said that it was impossible for Lin Geng to blame Lin Pingzhen.
Ning Xia thought that she had also been "led into a trap" by Lin Pingzhen, and was a little worried that the father and son had a grudge. Fortunately, the result was good. Although the sentence "there is no overnight hatred between father and son" is a false proposition, a sincere father and son who have no estrangement in the first place naturally deserve a good outcome.
After the meal, the Lin family and his son said goodbye, and the Ningxia family repaired themselves. Ningxia also settled down in this small town with peace of mind.
Life in the Ning family was smooth and comfortable, with no twists and turns. Every day he had good food, drinks, fun, and happy gatherings with his family. For a while, Ningxia even delayed his cultivation.
In fact, she didn't mean to be lazy, it was just that time was precious to her family. It took less time to gather together, but there was still a lifetime of time to practice. It was clear at a glance which was more important.
Ning's mother was in poor health and lacked energy. She had to take a nap at noon and go to bed early at night. Ningxia often had to spend a lot of time with her sister-in-law, who was still a stranger.
Fortunately, Li Yuhe was easy to get along with, and he didn't look at her differently because of her status as a monk. He just treated her as a sister-in-law and told her a lot about Ning Dengrong.
From this sister-in-law, Ningxia learned a lot about Ning Dengrong. This was the first time she got to know another side of Ning Dengrong, a Ning Dengrong who had a cold and hard style in officialdom that was completely different from what he showed at home.
Naturally, these years have not always been smooth. After all, life is like a blind box. You don’t know what is inside until you get to that point. If you keep opening the blind box, there is always the possibility of problems.
There are four members of the Ning family, Ning's father and Ning's mother are already old and weak, and with limited knowledge, they can't do much in this huge mountain city. Ningxia is practicing in the Wuhua Sect thousands of miles away. Although he has emergency contact information, he cannot always ask Ningxia to do every trivial matter. Otherwise what would they become?
Only Ning Dengrong, the young and powerful male head of the family, has to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the family.
Ningxia has laid a good foundation for them, but it is his responsibility to establish a complete foothold in this strange city. He thought that as an elder brother, he couldn't let his little sister worry about this, and his parents would also have to rely on him in the future.
As a person with aspirations and ambitions, life will naturally be less troublesome than for someone who is mediocre and ordinary.
One can imagine the difficulty for Ning Dengrong, a foreigner with no foundation, to quickly climb to his current position in a new place. He has experienced a lot of difficulties and dangers over the years, but in the end he made a smooth transition on his own.
Now, Ning Xia is standing in Ning Mansion. He has full wings and no one needs to help him.
Back then, because my family was poor, I couldn't seize a chance at official career. I could only watch others climb up step by step on the Qingyun Ladder, while I could only spend my whole life in the farm... For a talented person, it was probably Just a kind of torture and teasing.
Later, he could only watch from afar as the woman he admired moved away step by step, drawing a clear line from his class. What kind of complicated feelings would Ning Dengrong have?
From the unwillingness at the age of seven or eight, to the numb acceptance of reality at the age of twelve or thirteen, to the complacency at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and now... I have crossed that trough. From a mortal perspective, the changes in the past ten years are more than just a natural chasm?
Her brother is also extraordinary.
Ningxia listened very carefully. This was a family member she had never known in the missing years. Perhaps this will become one of her memories of her family in the long years to come, or one day her memory will be blurred, but it is also the key to her finding her true self.
She really, really loves...her family.

"My little sister hasn't seen her brother for a few days, but she feels... a lot more relaxed?" Ning Xia looked at the person opposite and couldn't help but tease him.
Lin Pingzhen glanced at her sideways and did not immediately continue. Just by looking at the weird smile at the corner of Ning Xia's mouth, he knew that the other party was trying to tease someone, and he raised his eyebrows calmly.
He thought about it for a while and then asked himself: "You want to say that I am fat?" He said with certainty.
Ning Xia said "Oh" with a pity, but the other party actually stopped her conversation. Originally, she had prepared some words to tease the other party. I didn't expect it to be any advantage at all.
"It seems that uncle has been giving you a lot of help these days." Ningxia said with a smile.
She knew that Lin Geng was a good cook. After all, when the father and son lived together in those years, someone had to take care of the housework. Lin Pingzhen was busy studying at that time, and the only one who could cook was Lin Geng.
I never thought that Lin Geng, who came from a wealthy family, was quite talented in cooking, and could cook very simple ingredients very deliciously. Ningxia has been able to go there for several meals every time I go back to Shanshi City in the past few years.
Lin Ping was really embarrassed. Ordinarily, he, as a son, should be filial to his father. What's more, when he returned home, he was taken care of by his father who was not young. How could he be embarrassed?
But yesterday he tried to cook in the kitchen, but ended up burning a plate of food and almost blowing up the stove... Lin Pingzhen gave up on being filial in cooking.
"Brother, you have a single-gold spiritual root..." Ning Xia said with a dark look on her face when she heard that Lin Ping was really confused.
Fire overcomes metal. The two powers are inherently incompatible. If Lin Pingzhen doesn't control the power well, he will definitely explode. He should really be glad that he didn't learn to make alchemy, this seems inappropriate.
Lin Pingzhen naturally knew that he was a little embarrassed. Both of them tacitly agreed not to continue the topic and changed the subject.
"Then... have you mentioned that matter to Uncle Lin?" After chatting for a while, Ning Xia couldn't help but ask.
Lin Pingzhen shook his head: "I don't know what to say. I just tried it a little bit, but my father didn't seem to agree. I still have to think about what to say."
There is nothing difficult to say about this matter. The matter has already come to this point. It needs to be said sooner or later. Ningxia disagreed a little, but she understood. Lin Pingzhen still cared about his father after all.
But there is no point in delaying it any longer. Moreover, after what happened before, the world of cultivation is changing three times a day, and it is becoming more and more dangerous. If Lin Pingzhen doesn't solve this problem... it may become a time bomb at any time, blowing him up if he is not careful.
It will be too late to regret it by then!
