In the prison, Second Uncle Ning no longer looked like before. Although he had not achieved anything in the past, he was confident. Hence, no matter where he went, he would look smug and inexplicably arrogant. However, today, he was like a trapped beast. He was in a sorry state and his eyes were crazy. He looked more like a lunatic.
While he was recuperating, the jailer moved him to the cell next door. However, even through the bars, he could see the two pairs of malicious eyes next door every day. Second Uncle Ning wished he could look up at the sky and roar, “How did I offend the two of you?”
The two of them spat thick phlegm in his direction. Of course, they would not tell him that someone had promised them benefits to torture them. They only said, “I don’t like you. Not everything in this world needs a reason. I just can’t stand your pretentious behavior, and I’m not willing to let you swagger out. Sigh, I just want you to stay and accompany us. It’s best if you accompany us for the rest of your life.”
The last words crushed Second Uncle Ning’s psychological defense. He threw everything he could reach at the opposite side and scolded them impurely. As he scolded, he heard the two people next door say, “Do you think you can stay in a single room forever just because you’re slightly injured? When you recover…”
No! He couldn’t stay here any longer! He had to get out! He had to get out of here! Otherwise, he would die. He would definitely die!
Second Aunt Ning appeared in front of him under such circumstances and saw his bloodshot eyes.
The person in charge was very different from what she remembered. In the past, his face was considered top-notch in the village, but now, his image was completely devoid of hysteria. He was crying and screaming, shouting that he wanted to leave. “When are you going to get me out? Why are Father and
Mother so slow?”
At this point, Second Aunt Ning didn’t have time to be sad. “Don’t mention it.
You don’t know how much I’ve suffered these days!
Then, she exaggerated everything that had happened recently about the separation and severance. She emphasized that it was all Old Madam Ning’s fault.
“I originally thought that since you’re Mother’s biological son, she could at least smooth things over and let you suffer less. Who knew that she would kick our second branch out for Little Uncle? If I hadn’t argued for it, she wouldn’t have even given you a tael of silver!
Second Uncle Ning didn’t care about money now. He looked a little stunned. “What did you say just now? Not only did Father and Mother not plan to save me, but they even removed me from the genealogy?”
Second Aunt Ning’s expression was ugly. “That’s right! She said that she was afraid of being implicated by you and ruining Little Uncle’s future.” Second Uncle Ning was stunned for a while before he suddenly laughed like a lunatic. “They want to kick me out? Dream on!”
Although Second Aunt Ning also wanted to say harsh words, the truth was right in front of her. “Husband, don’t blame me for saying bad things, but everything at home is in your mother’s hands. She won’t listen even if I don’t agree. Back then, I said good things to beg Father and Mother to think of a way to save you, but Mother was focused on Little Uncle’s exam and didn’t take you to heart at all. It can be seen that in her heart, the most important son is still
Little Uncle.”
Glancing at Second Uncle Ning’s expression, she continued to fan the flames. “Mother said that she wants to wait for Little Uncle to earn a prestigious life for her, so she naturally won’t let you stand in her way…”
Under normal circumstances, Second Uncle Ning might have considered the instigation in Second Aunt’s words, but now, the strings in his mind were about to snap, and his thoughts instantly synchronized with Second Aunt’s. With his understanding of his mother, that old woman was really capable of doing such a heartless thing. He gritted his teeth, grabbed Second Aunt’s clothes, and whispered into her ear, “Go find Mother and say…”
“Mother, if you really don’t care about me, be careful that I’ll go to the county office and talk to the county magistrate about how our Little Uncle’s identity as a Tongsheng© came about!” Students had to take the Tongsheng examination first when they participated in the imperial examination. Second Aunt Ning hadn’t married into the family when Little Uncle Ning took the Tongsheng examination, so she actually didn’t know what the story was. She only knew that her Little Uncle had been studying at home ever since the teacher left, saying that he wanted to concentrate on studying to prepare for the Xiucai examination.
Second Uncle Ning only asked Second Aunt to pass on the message and did not go into detail. However, with Second Aunt’s intelligence, she could naturally guess that there was something fishy going on. Hence, although she did not know the reason, she threatened them very seriously.
The moment they heard this, Old Sir Ning and Old Madam Ning’s pupils trembled. Old Sir Ning, who usually didn’t speak much, even knocked his pipe on the table. “How dare you!”
Second Aunt Ning was frightened, but she still put her hands on her hips the next moment. “Why don’t we try?”
“Anyway, we’ve nothing now. We’re not afraid of anyone. At most, we’ll fight to the death. No one can have an easy time!”
Old Madam Ning was also anxious, but she was more shrewd than the old man. She wanted to comfort the second branch first. “Cuihua, we’re all family. Why do we have to act like enemies?”
Second Aunt Ning sneered. “You can’t blame me. Father and Mother started it first. I’m a pregnant woman, yet you have the cheek to chase me out to fend for myself. I don’t know where you got this heartlessness from!
Old Madam Ning’s expression stiffened, but she still controlled her temper. “Cuihua, you’re wrong about me. It’s not that we don’t care about Fengcai, so there’s nothing we can do, right? The county magistrate and the eldest branch are on good terms and refuse to make an exception. The eldest branch is also a nest of ingrates. In order not to help, they ran out whenever they saw the sun. Tsk, they’ll be torn apart by the wolves sooner or later!”
After scolding him a few times, she continued, “Mother wants Fengwen to go for the exam first. When he passes the examination, many people will want to curry favor with him. At that time, won’t you be able to come out?” Second Aunt Ning didn’t answer. “Mother, do you think I’m stupid? Alright, there’s no need to say such nonsense. I heard in the county office today that the current Emperor is going to grant amnesty to the world for the Noble Consort’s birthday. As long as we pay enough money, he can be released early. Hearing the word “money”, Old Madam Ning instinctively wanted to fall out with him. However, in order not to let the second branch ruin things, she held back her anger. “How can I still have money?
Second Aunt Ning recalled what Second Uncle had taught her and immediately put her hands on her hips. “Alright, you can’t bear to take out the money, right? Then I’ll go to the county office to kowtow now. From now on, don’t expect Little Uncle to bring honor to our ancestors. Let’s go to jail together to accompany my husband!”
Only then did Old Madam Ning panic. She grabbed Second Aunt Ning and squeezed out her words through gritted teeth. “I’ll give it to you, alright?!” After reporting these things to Rong Yan, Yun San raised his doubts to his brothers. “Master knows that the old residence love money, so he wants them to empty their pockets?”
Yun Yi touched his chin. “I’m afraid Master isn’t that generous.
Yun San expressed his willingness to hear the details with the others, soYun Yi activated his teaching mode. “Look, is Second Ning going to cause trouble when he comes back?”
Everyone agreed. He asked again, “Is the old residence in chaos?” Everyone hummed in agreement. He continued, “At a time like this, if the casino comes to ask for debt…”
Everyone exclaimed and stood up straight. “Master!
Yun Yi’s teaching expression froze and he slowly turned his head.
Rong Yan sat down and poured himself a glass of Xiaoxiao’s special Fruit Tea. “Since you know, so why aren’t you doing it?”
