"Oh, this is really rare. I originally thought that this couple had no brains and had to do things like putting their heads on their waists. Unexpectedly, they finally woke up one day and knew that this kind of business was not a long-term solution. They had to find another way. It’s so rare!” Ying Wu raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile, “What happened to make this couple give up on extortion?”
"Something did happen, and this gentleman is right." Ning Cheng looked at Ying Wu, smiled at him, and said, "It's not that they didn't know that blackmail was not a long-term solution, but at that time, They had no worries and simply lived in the present. But it was different later. Something happened that greatly changed their minds. What they wanted changed from money to something else."
"What could make them, who love money so much, change so much?"
"It's because they found out they had another baby."
Hearing these words, Jin Jing and Shen Cha looked at each other. A sarcastic smile flashed across their faces at the same time, but it quickly disappeared. If Jin Miaomiao hadn't been observing them all the time, It's simply impossible to find.
Jin Miaomiao had suspected from the beginning that Jin Jing and Shen Cha should know the story told by Ning Cheng. Because of many contents, she, Ying 5 and 17 all expressed surprise, but Chen Cha and Jin Jing were not , the two people behaved very calmly, as if none of this could disturb their minds. There was only one reason why they could do this, that is, they already knew this, and now they were sitting here listening to Ning Cheng's words. Confirming whether Ning Cheng's words are true or false.
Although she had this guess, Jin Miaomiao had no evidence. She planned to question Ning Cheng in person after interrogating Ning Cheng, which would be much more reliable than making random guesses by herself.
Shen Cha glanced at Jin Miaomiao. From the time she interrogated Ning Cheng, she had discovered that Jin Miaomiao had been observing her and Jin Jing. She just didn't reveal it, nor did she want to reveal it. What happened the night before was not Jin Miaomiao couldn't be told, but everything had to wait until Ning Cheng's interrogation.
Ying Five didn't know about the quarrel between his eldest brother and the Jin family siblings. Like Ying Seventeen, he was completely immersed in Ning Cheng's story and was very shocked when he heard Ning Cheng's words.
"There's another one? Good guy, this couple is really..." He looked at Shen Cha, then at Jin Jing, touched his chin sheepishly, and said in a low voice, "I'm getting stronger as I was, and I'm as brave as before!"
"Fifth brother!" Ying Shiqi rolled his eyes, "How do you talk?"
"What this gentleman said is right, you will get stronger when you are old." Ning Cheng smiled at Ying Qiqi, "When my brother talked about this matter back then, he had the same evaluation as this gentleman. He felt that Mr. Ning and Mrs. Ning Reality is amazing.”
"What's so big about this?" Ying Qiqi rolled his eyes, "It's just that I gave birth to a child."
"This is not just an ordinary birth of a child." Ning Cheng smiled calmly, "My lord, you must remember that Ning Changguo is the same age as their eldest son. That is to say, twenty years after they gave birth to their eldest son, Having another child, I have to say, this is indeed a strange news. My brother said that it was probably because their minds were calmer and the environment was better, which made the two people's bodies better, so they had a second child. .”
"This possibility cannot be ruled out." Ying Wu nodded, "Did they give up on blackmailing the Chaozhou Ning family and Ning Changguo because they had a biological child, and instead started planning for this old man?"
"Your Majesty is right. They feel that instead of risking their lives to blackmail Ning Changguo, it is better to tie this man up with family affection. In any case, their youngest son is Ning Changguo's nominal half-brother. Whether it is for his own official reputation, his own reputation, or his goal of becoming someone who is admired by scholars, he will not ignore it."
"Understood, this is what you just mentioned, the scene of a loving father and a filial son. They hope that Ning Changguo can take care of their youngest son. This is much more valuable than how much money they extort."
"That's right." Ning Cheng nodded, "It's just that Ning Changguo didn't know that he had an extra little brother at the beginning. When he knew this, it was already Mrs. Ning's second child. In the year, Mr. Ning personally went to Chaozhou Mansion to convey the good news to Ning Changguo. At that time, Ningchang State had already become the magistrate of Chaozhou Mansion, and under the protection of the family, he slowly began to gain some fame. "
"Is it a surprise or a joy for him to know that he has a little brother?" Ying Wuyi raised an eyebrow, "Or is it a combination of surprises?"
"Absolutely!" Ning Cheng shook his head gently, "I'm not sure, I must be very surprised. After all, whether it's his biological parents or his adoptive parents, he has only had one child for so many years, and suddenly he has a child. Little brother, this feeling must be very strange!" He thought for a while, "That's it, right? If I suddenly had a little brother, I would be very happy. However, I have a little nephew, which is also very good. .”
"Educate others by yourself, that's probably it."
"Judging from Ning Changguo's love for this younger brother later, he should have liked him very much. Unfortunately, his love was wrongly paid after all. It was this love that really sent him to the execution ground and what really caused the downfall of the Ning family in Xijing. "My brother. However, at this time, Ning Changguo still doesn't know." Ning Cheng sighed, "According to my brother, Master Ning went to announce the good news to Ning Changguo, and Ning Changguo was very happy. Specifically, Master Ning went to Chaozhou When I arrived, there was one person, one attendant, and two carriages. When I returned, there was one person, one attendant, and seven or eight carriages. On the carriages were carefully prepared gifts for my little brother, as well as experienced mothers. .”
"You found them all from my family?"
"Yes, and they are all trusted by Ningchang State." Ning Cheng sighed and said, "Mr. Ning never thought that Ningchang State would do this, so he was very happy. He felt that Ningchang State valued this younger brother very much, and even more My decision is correct, I can't always use Ning Changguo's background as a handle to blackmail him for some money. If I do this, sooner or later the friendship between us will be worn away."
"So it's this new-born child that really maintains their relationship?"
"Yes!" Ning Cheng nodded, "About three years later, Ning Cheng was transferred back to Xijing from Jiangnan and sent news to the Ning family and his wife. He asked them to send his younger brother to Xijing City for his personal enlightenment."
