There was silence in the Ning family, and the servants all looked uneasy, with their heads lowered and their footsteps hurried.
The stewards of the Ning family in Xunyang City and the servants of the family gathered at the entrance of the ancestral hall, and they were all silent.
Since the death of Mr. Ning, the only remaining bloodline of this large family, which has been almost swallowed up by people with other surnames, is finally back!
And even though it is a big family, only this single seedling is left.
Fortunately, Ning Feng and Ning Yao both wanted to occupy the Ning family's business, develop and advance to the next level, and never thought of destroying the Ning family.
Because over the years, although the Ning family is not as good as before, it has not declined and is still among the four major merchants in the Qian Kingdom.
The conflicts within the Ning family are caused by blood inheritance. A group of people who were once loyal to Mr. Ning saw Ning Feng's wolfish ambitions, suspected that Mr. Ning was murdered by him, and wanted to support Ning Qingqing in seizing power and driving Ning Feng away. Unfortunately, Ning Qingqing was so stupid that she turned around and sold those people to Ning Feng, causing the Ning family to lose many capable managers.
However, there are also many people who do not approve of Ning Feng in their hearts, but choose to obey in order to survive. Now that they know that Ning Jing is back, they have expectations in their hearts.
"Seventh Young Master is here." Someone said.
Everyone turned around and saw Ning Jing walking alone out of the morning mist. He was wearing thin clothes, tall and tall, and his cold face looked like an immortal.
As he got closer, he saw something in Ningjing's hand, which was a tablet.
Looking closer, the person who saw clearly what was written on the tablet looked horrified!
And tranquility passed through the crowd and entered the ancestral hall.
People outside could see that Ning Jing placed the tablet he brought under Mr. Ning and Ning Qingqing, and then lit up the incense.
"Why did the seventh young master set up his own memorial tablet..." an old steward couldn't help but speak.
Everyone else also looked puzzled.
Because the tablet says "The Spiritual Tablet of Peace", which is quite strange.
When Ning Jing turned around, the stewards and servants lined up and stood in line. Watching him come out, they said calmly, "The past Ning Jing is dead. From now on, I am the head of the Ning family."
Zhen Ningjing yearns for freedom and does not want to take over the Ning family business, and this has something to do with Ning Feng and Ning Yao's brainwashing of him.
The real Ning family is gone.
Ning Jing did not do this for the sake of true peace, but just to reduce trouble. Because as long as he used this identity, he could not break away from the Ning family.
"Master and Madam..." someone asked in a low voice.
They only knew that there was a fire in the courtyard of the house last night, but they didn't know where Ning Feng, Huamei, and their children had gone.
"In this family, there is no master, no wife, only me." Ning Jing looked indifferent, "The people you are thinking of are never the Ning family. Last night Wan Feng personally confessed to the crime of murdering his grandfather and mother. Huamei and Their sons and daughters are knowing accomplices."
Although everyone present had some speculations about these things, hearing Ning Jing say it so straightforwardly still made his heart tremble!
"They all went to the underworld to apologize to their mother." Ning Jing threw another thunderbolt expressionlessly.
You must know that among these people's previous knowledge, the Seventh Young Master is the most gentle and kind-hearted.
A year passed, and no one expected that Ning Jing would return again, with the attitude of a life-threatening Shura, and with one move, he would wipe out the entire family of the surrogate son-in-law and clear up the family for the Ning family.
Of course, there were people present who had followed Ning Feng and Ning Yao before, but since they were all gone, it was impossible for anyone to come out and challenge Ning Jing's authority in this family at this time.
Because from beginning to end, Ning Jing was the only legitimate heir of this family.
This is also the reason why those bad guys who have been planning for many years want to drive away Zhen Ningping and put him to death. When they found out that he was alive, they racked their brains and used all means to hunt him down.
"In an hour, I want to see the policy and know the current business situation of the Ning family. I don't have to care about the past, but the Ning family does not leave waste." Ning Jing said coldly, "Go and prepare."
The stewards looked shocked and left in a hurry.
Ning Jing looked at the servants left behind, and finally his eyes fell on the housekeeper.
This was not the original butler when Mr. Ning was around, but a close confidant of Ning Feng. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his head hung low, and his face turned pale.
"I'll give you a task." Ning Jing said.
The housekeeper nodded immediately, "Yes, Master, please give me your instructions!"
"Go and throw the bones of Wan Feng, Huamei, and their children into mass graves, and raise the ashes for me!" Ning Jing said coldly.
The butler looked horrified, and the other servants were also frightened.
"Master, go during the day. If outsiders find out..." the housekeeper's voice was trembling.
"Go openly and honestly. If anyone asks, tell the truth." Ning Jing said.
The butler nodded with an ugly face, "Yes."
"Whoever wants to leave can pay one hundred taels of silver to the accountant and can leave today. If he wants to stay, everything will continue as before." Ning Jing said.
The Ning family is not short of money, and they don't need so many servants now. Ningjing gives them a choice.
After saying that, Ningjing left and went to the yard where Zhen Ningjing had lived since childhood.
It has only been a year and weeds have already grown in the yard.
Ningjing opened the door, dust was floating in the air.
He found water, cleaned the room where Zhen Ningping lived, removed the weeds in the yard, and then lay on the bed and slept.
The weather in Xunyang City is hazy today.
A group of young and strong servants walked out of the Ning family's mansion, all carrying poles and bamboo baskets. The housekeeper stood beside him with a sullen face.
Someone approached and saw the dark human bones in the bamboo building and screamed in fright.
Some acquaintances also asked the housekeeper what he was doing, and he followed Ning Jing's instructions and told the truth. The real head of the Ning family had returned, and his adopted son-in-law Wan Feng and the poisonous woman Huamei, together with all their children, plotted to kill Mr. Ning and Mr. Ning.
Ning Qingqing, the evidence is conclusive, has committed suicide to apologize.
All those who heard this were dumbfounded!
Wan Feng and Huamei, who was born in a brothel, jointly plotted to seize the Ning family's property. Everyone believed that they killed Mr. Ning and Ning Qingqing, which many people suspected in the first place.
But if you want to say that the poisonous couple committed suicide with their children to apologize, only a ghost would believe it!
When almost everyone heard this, they felt that this was Ping Jing coming back for revenge. They were all killed by Ping Jing! How could anyone commit suicide to apologize and choose to burn themselves with their children? Their bones were burned black!
"Where are the bones going to be sent?" someone asked.
The housekeeper said bravely, "Follow the owner's instructions, throw all the bones of these bastards into mass graves and spread the ashes!"
…
A group of people who accompanied the Ning family to the mass graves returned peacefully and took revenge with thunderous means. It was not enough to kill those who caused harm to the Ning family. Even their bones were thrown into the mass graves and their ashes were scattered.
The shocking news spread in Xunyang City with lightning speed.
Some people say that both Wan Feng and Ning Feng are Ning Jing's biological fathers, and he is too cruel.
Some people refute this, what kind of serious father is a son-in-law? A man who has even lost his surname, to put it bluntly, Ning Jing is the serious master of the Ning family, and Wan Feng sold himself into the Ning family, let alone his role as a
It is extremely ridiculous that the surrogate son-in-law actually produced a bunch of illegitimate children that are older than Ningjing.
As a son-in-law, Wan Feng murdered his father-in-law, poisoned Ning Qingqing, and even drove Ning Jing out of the house. Who knows his intentions? He deserves to die! As for Huamei and her children, who entered the Ning family, in terms of status,
Just a slave.
Ning Jing should have been so strong-willed, take back everything that belongs to him, and get rid of all those ambitious dogs!
Some people applauded Tingping's thunderous methods.
There were also people who repeatedly criticized Ning Jing for being too cruel and ruthless.
Ningjing took part in the imperial examination in Pingbeicheng, and the news that he passed the exam and passed the Yuan Dynasty has recently reached Xunyang City.
And this combined with the fact that Ning Jing destroyed all his nominal biological father and nominal half-brothers and sisters, makes people sigh and lament. In the end, I can only say that there is a successor to the Ning family.
Ning Jing woke up and washed his face. Someone from the Xunyang City government came and asked him to come over and ask questions.
The commotion was so loud and several people died, so it was normal for the government to intervene.
Ning Jing went to the government office in full view of everyone.
He came out not long after, safe and sound.
Although there was a murder case in the Ning Mansion, in terms of status, Ning Jing had the right to deal with those who were not Ning's but relied on the Ning family for survival. They were equivalent to slaves, even if their surname was Ning and they had lived such a glorious life before.
It is not impossible for the government to trouble Ningjing for this, but everyone died and was burned. Ningjing said that they burned themselves, and there was no evidence to prove that Ningjing set the fire.
The most important thing is that Ning Jing is now in charge of Xie Yuan and has a bright future. The officials in Xunyang City do not want to antagonize him at all. The questioning is just a formality and a greeting.
After returning to Ning's house, the stewards were waiting in the meeting hall. Ning Jing passed by and asked them to come forward one by one to hand over the account books and report on the business status of each.
Some people were fooled, thinking that Ning Jing didn't understand anything, but the problem was pointed out to the point, and they didn't even have a chance to defend themselves. They were taken away from the job and left immediately.
The servants brought tea and snacks twice, and for two meals, Ningjing didn't eat much.
It wasn't until late at night that the last old steward finished his report, and Ning Jing had a preliminary understanding of the Ning family's business.
But he did not plan to stay and manage. Instead, through today's "interview", he selected a few clear-headed and experienced managers and rearranged them to ensure that the Ning family's business would not fall into chaos after he left.
But today, Ning Jing was involved in the business, and went to the government to cross the path of publicity, and announced that he would become the head of the Ning family. From now on, no one would dare to openly take advantage of the Ning family.
For the same reason, he is a Jie Yuan. Maybe in half a year, he will win the first prize. Who would dare to provoke him?
And today, everyone has witnessed Ning Jing's ruthless methods of crushing enemies and destroying them, which is a great shock to both internal and external people in the Ning family.
After the original housekeeper was ordered to spread Wan Feng's ashes, Ningjing sent people to escort him to the government and accused him of stealing the owner's property and murdering several people.
It's not a false accusation. This housekeeper secretly helped Wan Feng do many evil things, harmed several former Ning family housekeepers, and seized a large amount of property from his home.
Although it was actually Wan Feng who rewarded it, Ning Jing said he stole it, so he stole it.
As for the evidence of harm, Ning Jing has no evidence and recommends that the government torture him severely.
The new butler was an old man who took care of the flowers and trees in the back garden, and was also the old man who served Mr. Ning. He was originally the chief steward in charge of purchasing in the house, but later claimed to be in poor health and hid in the garden.
When he heard that Ning Jing asked him to be the housekeeper, the old man burst into tears and said repeatedly, "The master and the young lady are alive in heaven. Seeing that the young master is so capable, they can rest in peace."
Before dawn, Ningjing rode away from Xunyang City alone.
Time was in a hurry, so the arrangements for the Ning family were a bit sloppy, but for the time being he could guarantee that there would be no trouble. As for the future, when he saw Su Liang, he would ask her if she was interested in taking over the Ning family.
