Buttface struggled a few times, and a small bag wrapped in layers fell out. Rong Yan lifted his leg, caught it, and opened it. He realized that it was the ginseng that Second Uncle Ning had opened before.
Buttface refused to repent. “Bullsh*t. You said that this thing belongs to the Ning Family and it belongs to the Ning Family? How can it respond to you? How can it be? Their family is so poor. I can even say that I dug it up in the mountains!”
At this moment, it was Li Muyan’s turn to speak. “I can really prove that this ginseng was given to the Ning Family by me. It weighs two liang three qian £) and is 70 years old. There’s also a gap at the top of the ginseng.” Because of that gap, he felt that it was not suitable to give it to Gongsun Zhongjing as a gift to invite him out of seclusion. Hence, he stuffed it into the gift box for the Ning Family.
The value of a 100-year-old ginseng was worlds apart from a 70-year-old ginseng. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have given it away casually. He wasn’t really the fool who threw away silver for fun.
Buttface was speechless.
At this moment, Second Brother had already told Xiaoxiao about Buttface’s life. When she heard that he was familiar with Second Uncle Ning and got the spot to dig the canal to replace his big brother, Xiaoxiao touched her chin and felt that things were not that simple.
She stuffed the ginseng into her arms and took it out again. Then, she poked Buttface, who couldn’t move, on the ground with its ginseng roots. Buttface didn’t want to be disturbed, but his greedy eyes were fixed on the ginseng, unwilling to move away.
“Hey.” Xiaoxiao asked with a smile, “Do you want this?”
Buttface thought to himself, Isn’t that obvious?His family couldn’t even save a few copper coins a year from digging in the soil. How many years could this ginseng save him from working hard? Wouldn’t he have the capital to get a wife?! That rich young master just said that this thing was 70 years old. Wouldn’t it be worth 50 taels of silver? He might not have to worry about food and drink for the rest of his life if he sold it!
Xiaoxiao smiled even more brightly. “How about this? Answer two of my questions truthfully. If the answers satisfy me, I’ll give it to you and won’t pursue the matter of you breaking into my house.”
Buttface’s eyes widened. “A promise?”
Xiaoxiao nodded. “Of course.”
In addition, this girl said that she already knew? That meant that Second Brother Ning had already let it slip. No wonder he was beaten up like this. He chuckled.
“Since you already know, you don’t need me to tell you.”
Second Uncle Ning’s heart pounded and he immediately wanted to rush over to stop him. Xiaoxiao had already noticed his actions, but before he could speak, Rong Yan had already pulled out Yun Yi’s sword and thrown it out. The tip of the sword was buried in the ground and it stuck between Second Uncle Ning’s legs. Just as he was about to die, he heard the young man’s cold voice. “Listen quietly.”
When Buttface saw this, he felt that this was settling scores later. He said, “Of course I learned it from your good Second Uncle.”
Ning Fengnian felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck his head, causing his old injuries to buzz.
Madam Song’s legs went weak and her vision darkened.
Ning Ansheng and Ning Anhui hurriedly went forward to help their parents up, but their eyes were also burning with anger.
Xiaoxiao, who had known the truth long ago, was the calmest. She simply stuffed the “ginseng” back into Buttface’s arms and even asked Yun Er to let go of him. “Oh? How did you learn it?”
It did not matter if he said it or not. Anyway, Second Uncle’s actions could no longer be hidden.
Buttface got up from the ground and wiped his face casually with his sleeve. He took out the thing in his arms and looked at it left and right. At the same time, he said, “Don’t you already know how 1 learned it? Didn’t your Second Uncle get your father’s job as a short-term worker by smashing your father’s head in the dark?”
As soon as he said that, the thunder above Ning Fengnian’s head seemed to quieten down. He looked at his parents, who were not surprised, and his heart was calm.
On the other hand, Madam Song was so angry that tears streamed down her face. Not long ago, she was worried that it was inappropriate for the head of the household and her son to hit someone in front of the county magistrate. Now, she only felt that it was too lenient! That heartless thing!
Xiaoxiao hugged her mother and comforted her, but she was actually quite happy in her heart. It was better to suffer short-term pain than long-term pain. If it was going to hurt, it would hurt completely. There was no room for redemption. Just from this point alone, Buttface’s appearance was very good. Little Big Brother Ah Yan, who had caught him, had contributed greatly. She had to reward him well later!
Seeing that this matter could not be covered up, Old Madam Ning and Old Sir Ning begged for mercy for their son while trembling. “County magistrate, this, this is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding…”
