Although Ning Pengpeng knew it well, as she said before, 70% hard work and 30% luck.
When she was arrested, shopkeeper Su had not returned to Anzhen yet!
What if the prescription she asked Ning Youzhi to give to Shopkeeper Su was not given to Shopkeeper Su?
I'm afraid, she really has no choice but to break her promise and tell the county magistrate the recipe for making sugar!
After all, the county magistrate only wanted the prescription, not the lives of their family.
Who told me that this was in ancient times, when I was just an old lady from the countryside, and could not compete with officials anywhere?
After this incident, Ning Pengpeng deeply understood why the imperial examination was so difficult.
Why do so many poor families tighten their belts and have to provide a scholar?
Because of the scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, in this ancient world where the imperial power ruled, only scholars stood high above the heads of all living beings.
But she was too naive before, thinking that if she could make money, she could become a landlord and spend her old age comfortably.
Shit... If there is no power around, the first person to suffer is a person like her who has no backing.
In modern times, it is common to see county magistrates destroying families and prefects exterminating families.
At that time, I thought it was just a sentence. Now, when the knife actually cuts into my flesh, I realize how painful the force of the cut is.
Now, she only hopes that Shopkeeper Su can come back soon.
I even hope that her prescription will work.
Ms. Liu didn't know what her mother-in-law had done. Now that she heard her mother-in-law scolding her like this, she felt very suffocated and wanted to say something else.
But he saw Boss Ning standing up suddenly and saying with red eyes.
"What did mother say? No matter how unfilial my son is, you are still my mother. If something happens to my mother, and I act as my son but ignore her, am I still a human being?
Mom, I am the boss of the family, if anything happens to the Ning family, I will take care of it."
Ning Laoer also wiped his tears and stood up.
"If anything happens, I should be the one to take the blame. Anyway, I only have a daughter, no son, and no wife. I just hope that my mother will burn incense sticks for him when she thinks of her son in the future."
"I should be the one to take the blame. Mom and I were responsible for this incident. Even if something happens, it won't be your fault. At worst, I'll have a big scar on my head, but eighteen years later I'll be a good man again."
Ning Laosan was excited by what his eldest brother and second brother said, so he retorted directly, and then said sonorously and forcefully.
After the three brothers finished speaking, they all turned their heads and looked at the fourth brother with bright eyes.
Ning Laosi's back felt a little hairy when his three brothers stared at him, and he swallowed his saliva.
"How about I do it as the younger brother? After all, I'm not married, and I don't have a wife and children to drag me down?"
"You four, shut up."
Ning Pengpeng was still a little shocked when Boss Ning stood up and said those words.
After all, in the impression of her body, she really didn't think Mr. Ning would be so great, sacrificing himself to save the rest of the Ning family?
However, as the four sons jumped out one by one, fighting to die, it seemed that they were sure that the entire Ning family would soon die.
Ning Pengpeng's hands felt inexplicably itchy, and she felt that these sons must be in need of treatment!
It's just that the four of them are locked over there now, and she is in the cell here, and she can't be beaten even if she wants to.
"You... come out!"
Just when Ning Pengpeng was glaring at his sons, a government official came over, opened the cells on both sides, and called the Ning family to come out.
Boss Ning immediately stepped forward as if he were dead, closed his eyes and said to the officer.
"If you want to chop me, chop me. I am the head of the family."
"No, brother, I'll do it."
"I told you it's me, it has nothing to do with you."
"Eldest brother, second brother, third brother, mother took the eldest sister-in-law, the third sister-in-law and the children out!"
Ning Laosi was blocked at the door of the cell by his three brothers. He watched helplessly as his mother left the cell with her sister-in-law, nieces and nephews, and she immediately said weakly behind her brothers.
"mother……"
The three brothers were startled and quickly walked out of the cell to follow their mother.
Ning Laosi was left alone, helpless and weak!
However, when they walked out of the cell, they only saw the wealthy Shopkeeper Su, standing outside the Yamen, looking at them with a smile.
If Ning Pengpeng was still holding on to her heart when she came out just now, it wasn't until she saw Shopkeeper Su that her heart dropped heavily.
It seems that the owner really knows that his sugar recipe is a certificate of trust, so Shopkeeper Su is willing to help the Ning family.
"Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Su."
Ning Pengpeng couldn't kneel down on the ground and bow down, but he still gave a deep and half-crouching blessing ceremony to Shopkeeper Su.
"Auntie, you're welcome. Now you and I can be regarded as partners. I, Su Ming, don't know that the Ning family is in trouble. Since I know that the Ning family is in trouble, how can I ignore it?"
Shopkeeper Su stepped forward to help Ning Pengpeng's arm and said sincerely.
"Auntie, I have set up a private room in Chunfeng Building. You can wash it with grapefruit water to remove the bad luck, and then have a good meal. When you are full and full, we can talk about things slowly."
The thing he was talking about was naturally the hot pot recipe that Ning Pengpeng asked Ning Youzhi to give him before.
"Okay, then the old woman would rather be respectful than obey!"
Ning Pengpeng smiled and nodded to Shopkeeper Su, without asking him how he persuaded the county magistrate to let them go.
Presumably, it’s either money or power!
No matter what kind of situation, even if Ning Pengpeng asked about it at this moment, he still wouldn't be able to explain his feelings for Chunfeng Tower.
It is better to keep it in your heart and wait for the right opportunity to repay you.
"Mother...how do you know Mother Su from Chunfeng Tower?"
Ning Youfu's courage, which he had finally mustered up, had been discouraged over and over again.
Now I saw my mother talking to Shopkeeper Su, and they came out of the cell safe and sound. I guess it must be Shopkeeper Su's fault. I was dumbfounded at the same time, and stretched my head to ask in the ear of the third child.
He didn't ask the second child, because he knew that the second child only knew people who were full of hard work, and he would definitely not know as clearly as the cunning third child.
Sure enough, Ning Lao San laughed out loud at Ning Lao San.
"Brother, shopkeeper Su came to our Dahuaishu Village a few days ago! Just feel free to follow my mother to Chunfeng Tower!"
Speaking of this, he cast a sidelong glance at Mr. Liu who was also dumbfounded.
This sister-in-law wants to keep everything out of the way and treats them like bumpkins from the countryside!
However, seeing what the elder brother said just now, Ning Laosan doesn't mind what the elder sister-in-law said.
After all, being caught and imprisoned in the county government prison would frighten even a grown man like him, not to mention that his sister-in-law is a woman.
Boss Ning and Mrs. Liu looked at each other, followed Ning Pengpeng and the others with puzzled expressions, got into the carriage called by Shopkeeper Su, and went to Chunfeng Tower together.
