Ning Jiayin had no idea that the palace knew her again because of her boneless chicken feet, because all the married girls from the Ning family were coming back today.
The weather was particularly refreshing after the snow, and the sun was shining brightly. Early in the morning, the old lady happily asked people to clean the house inside and outside. The maid and servant were also very happy that the Ning family had not been so lively for a long time.
Ning Jiayin picked out an amber silk jacket today, put on light makeup and strong sword eyebrows to make herself look more mature. After all, she couldn't let others look down upon her after a while.
Chunxing looked at her girl's clothes, which were originally made to look too big some time ago, but now they fit her perfectly. She couldn't help but sigh: "Our girl has really grown a lot this year!" The nanny also circled around her. Ning Jiayin touched her face in front of the bronze mirror. She felt that her face was much brighter than before. All the girls in the Ning family were beauties, so she couldn't be any less beautiful.
Chunmei was also very busy in the kitchen. Since she came to the Ning family, the girl taught her how to make a lot of food, which she had never seen before. The girl was not afraid of her spoiling things and let her practice over and over again until she was in the yard. She stopped after everyone said it was delicious. The girl always said that after learning a skill, she could eat well wherever she went. But she never planned to leave the girl in her life. She would never meet such a good person again. Today, the girl When she was asked to show off her skills, she was a little scared at first, but the girl said: "What are you afraid of? I taught you all your skills. Just let go and do it." After hearing the girl's words, her heart settled down, right? A meal? I must not embarrass the girl.
She prepared everything, instructing others to wash and place them, and then she could do it herself. The girl also had to make pots to eat today. The cold weather in winter is a good time to eat pots, and many families would gather together to eat. , but the girl’s pot is different from other people’s pots. Other people’s pots just put vegetables, meatballs, beans, and fungi. The girl’s pot has some hot pot bases that the girl calls. It contains ginseng, astragalus, licorice, wolfberry, etc. The girl said that these base ingredients can also nourish the body. A few days ago, the girl took them to make a lot of these base ingredients. They ate them several times in their yard and it was really delicious. It was delicious, and she felt that her aunt would be a feast for the eyes when she returned home today.
In ancient times, the pot was called "antique soup" because of its convenience. It was named after it made a slurping sound when placed in water. Ning Jiayin liked hot pot and barbecue the most in his previous life. Young people, after work, go to eat hot pot together in groups, which is the most atmospheric. , Daliang Chao didn’t have any hot pot base at this time, so she thought about it and made some base last time. The utensils for the pot were also traditional, so last time she had someone make a few mandarin duck pots in her yard. When trying the food, several girls were so surprised that their eyes almost dropped. When they put in the hot pot base ingredients, they didn’t know how to describe their feelings. Qingdai said: “We shouldn’t make a fuss, since we were little. What things did you see with the girl that weren’t unusual?”
Several girls, like Ning Jiayin, also came early to join in the fun. Although the eldest lady was inconvenient, she also came. Since she was not asked to do anything, she just joined in the fun. The second lady Bai and the third lady Wu also came early. came to help, Wu brought up the old matter again and wanted to learn how to do business from Ning Jiayin. While directing people to work, she said to Ning Jiayin: "There are not many days left in the first year. After the New Year, I must learn the same thing as you." , the same is enough.”
"Okay," Ning Jiayin joked with her while eating dried fruits: "Third aunt, come and study medicine with me. I am short of a female doctor."
Wu knew that she was joking with him, so she continued: "If you don't think I'm clumsy, I will learn from you. If I can't learn, I will give you Xiaofubao and let him learn from you."
Mrs. Bai answered the question from the side: "The Ning family can't become an official anyway, so they can just study medicine." There was an unknowing contempt in his tone. Everyone present felt embarrassed after hearing this. The third girl I couldn't help but shout: "Mom!"
The eldest lady glanced at her, thinking that a dog's mouth couldn't spit out ivory, but she said: "Some people are self-sufficient in their ability to look down on nothing even though they are nothing. The old prince and princess are also something you can see when you see them." , the old princess also came to add a box for the second girl's business, isn't it the credit of the fourth girl?" The eldest lady spoke sharply. This was the first time she had embarrassed Bai Shi. She used to have a lot of worries when she was the head of the house. Listen to her She said a lot of nonsense, and she could bear it when she thought she was the elder, but today she looked down on the fourth girl and she couldn't bear it anymore. Why, the food, drinks, and clothes were all earned by the fourth girl. She was still looking down on people, but to be honest, she has looked away now. If her child wants to study medicine in the future, she will not object to it. Just looking at the people Si Yatou is seeing now, she knows that even the rich and nobles use it. How could a person be looked down upon? She would be satisfied even if she didn't study medicine and had half the skills of a fourth girl. However, this Bai family couldn't figure it out.
Ning Jiayin looked at her aunt with gratitude and said nothing. She didn't need to say anything today!
The old lady only felt that this second daughter-in-law was rebellious and could not say anything pleasant. She faced the daughter-in-law seriously: "The future of the Ning family is unknown, so don't be too ambitious and be down-to-earth." It's not that the third girl's sensible talk makes her embarrassed, she really wants to kick the second daughter-in-law out.
The third aunt glanced at Ning Jiayin and said quickly: "I think it's good to study medicine. The last time doctors treated diseases and saved people, if it hadn't been for the ability of the fourth girl, little Fubao and I would have died a long time ago. There would be no talk about the future." That's what she really thought. After walking on the line of life and death, she understood more and more that fame and wealth were good, but they also had to be enjoyed in life, so she would be very happy if her son was willing to study medicine with her fourth sister in the future.
Bai knew that her words had made everyone unhappy, but this was obviously what everyone had thought before, so why did she think it was wrong? This was indeed what everyone had thought before. What she didn't understand was that everyone had different opinions on their own survival. The environment made compromises, and they all changed their thoughts and opinions due to changes in life. Only she herself did not change.
The atmosphere became dull for a moment, and everyone fell silent. Only then did Ning Jiayin speak to the third aunt: "In a few days, the second sister and the third sister will come to my place to learn how to make some skin care products for women. The third aunt has nothing to do." Go check it out and do it together if you like.”
Mrs. Wu immediately said: "Okay, women are the best to make money, especially women from high families, as long as the goods are good and easy to sell."
Fifth sister Ning Jiarui asked timidly from the side: "Fourth sister, can I go and learn?"
"Sure," Ning Jiayin readily agreed, "You can go as long as you don't mind it." Ning Jiarui was also a concubine like herself. She used to be pushy, but Ning Jiayin dealt with her several times to make her recognize her identity. Don't She always had a different relationship with her eldest sister, so she was a little afraid of Ning Jiayin.
Bai Shi lowered his head after hearing this.
