Farmer's counterattack is busy with farming

Chapter 407 The Desolate Eldest Daughter
Ning Chengcheng hesitated.

Although she also likes money, in the final analysis, money is not as important as marrying a good husband.

As long as you marry well, are you afraid of running out of money?

She only hesitated for a moment, then immediately nodded in agreement.

"However, I don't have that much cash on hand now..." Ning Chengcheng said in a low voice seeing that no one else was paying attention, "Can you allow me a few days until I have enough money..."

"No!" Ning Xianxian refused straight away, "If you play tricks, where can I reason?"

"Then what do you want me to do?" Ning Chengcheng was a little annoyed, "I'm about to leave, even if I want to give it to you, I don't have it!"

"Give me something as collateral." Ning Xianxian said.

"what?"

"For example..." Ning Xianxian looked her up, "The gem-studded phoenix hairpin on your head is not bad."

"This is absolutely not acceptable!" Ning Chengcheng refused straight away, "Madam specially went to Fendiexuan to order this. If it is gone, I can't explain it!"

Ning Xianxian twitched the corners of her lips: "It's just used as a mortgage. As long as you bring 1000 taels of silver truthfully, I will naturally return the Fengchai to you. Why, do you still want to turn your face and deny anyone?"

Ning Chengcheng frowned: "1000 taels is too much..."

"Forget it." Ning Xianxian raised his voice and said, "Old Madam, I think..."

"I agree!" Ning Chengcheng whispered behind her.

His tone sounded a bit annoyed.

Ning Xianxian showed a smile at the corner of his mouth, and continued to say to Mrs. Ning: "Grandmother, since mother has already reported Cheng Cheng's name, if she doesn't go suddenly, it will make people suspicious. People who don't know outside will think it's me. This older sister can't tolerate concubine sisters."

Ning Chengcheng was a little annoyed when he heard that, but there was nothing he could do.

No way, who made her ask for help now!

Mrs. Ning suppressed her anger, and with a kind smile on her face, she nodded again and again, and said, "It's better for Xianxian to be considerate. If that's the case, Sister Cheng will follow along. Just be quiet and don't give the family Shame."

"Yes, grandma, my granddaughter knows." Ning Chengcheng swallowed his anger.

Li Yanjun glanced at Ning Xianxian in surprise, wondering what kind of medicine was in her gourd.

"Mother, do you want You'er to send us into the palace?" Li Yanjun asked for instructions.

Hearing Ning Tianyou's name, the old lady's smile faded a little, and she said slowly: "Let's forget it, I don't think You'er is in a very good mood recently, let him be quiet, it's better to let Tianyi send you off." .”

Li Yanjun shook his head: "Aunt Zhao is about to give birth, and Tianyi has been guarding her from morning till night, not daring to leave."

"It's not easy for Tianyi's child. After all these years of marriage, it's easy to have a baby. That's all." The old lady's mood was a little depressed, "After all, the family is not prosperous enough. Let Tianyuan go."

Ning Chengxin has three sons in total, and the original legitimate son has become an adopted son.The eldest Ning Tianyi has a hidden disease, and the third eldest Ning Tianyuan has mediocre qualifications, so he can't fight at all.

After searching and searching, there is not a single man in the mansion that can be used.

It's no wonder that the old lady is in a gloomy mood, and she is so partial to her only granddaughter.

Li Yanjun hung his head, not daring to speak.

It was under her overt and covert suppression these years that those aunts in the backyard were so peaceful.The old lady thought that the mansion was not well populated, and she meant to blame Li Yanjun in her words.Li Yanjun could hear it naturally.

She didn't speak, and the old lady couldn't name and curse, so she sighed again and waved her hand: "Okay, let Tianyuan take you there."

Everyone agreed and withdrew together.

Li Yanjun turned around and saw Ning Xianxian and Ning Chengcheng walking together, and asked, "Cheng Cheng, where is the phoenix hairpin on your head?"

"I'm here." Ning Xianxian responded.

Everyone looked up at her head, and they saw a phoenix hairpin of pure gold with precious stones on her head, and a black hair hanging down her back, which was quite gorgeous.It complements the beauty of the blue coat on her body.

Mrs. Mu smiled in surprise: "Oh my god, if sister-in-law didn't mention it, I would forget about it. After all, Xianxian is the eldest daughter of our mansion, why doesn't she even have a decent piece of jewelry when she goes out? I remember that Fengchai Did my sister-in-law order it specially for Cheng Cheng? Tsk tsk!"

The meaning of her two "tsk tut" is self-evident.

My own eldest daughter has nothing, and she has to borrow jewelry from her concubine to wear.

This is too wronged.

If it spread, outsiders still don't know what to say about Xiangfu.

Li Yanjun's face was a little ugly.

She has been greatly impacted in the past few days, she was indeed negligent, and she didn't think of this.

The people who went here were not restaurants, but the imperial palace, where they met the civil and military dignitaries of the Manchu Dynasty, as well as the empress dowager, the empress, and the most noble people.

If they saw that the Prime Minister's mansion was so indiscriminate and unruly, it would definitely not be of Ning Chengxin's benefit.

Thinking of this, Li Yanjun broke into a cold sweat, hurriedly took off the two twisted gold bracelets from his hands, and handed them to Ning Xianxian to put them on.

At any rate, it's just for the time being, and it can't be too plain.

Ning Xianxian was also polite, took it with a smile, put it on, and asked Jade behind him: "Does it look good?"

Jade nodded again and again: "The princess looks fair, and gold is the best. It looks rich."

"Ma'am, do you still have to return this to you?" Ning Xianxian raised her eyes and asked with a smile.

Li Yanjun touched her smiling eyes, was startled, and then said: "Since I gave it to you, there is no one who wants to come back."

"Then thank you Ma'am." Ning Xianxian smiled openly, seeing in the eyes of Mu Shi and Ning Xi'er, she felt very sad.

Although she just came back, she is a decent eldest daughter, so she was so neglected.

Li Yanjun was a little embarrassed by their eyes, and said as he walked, "I'll make you a set of jewelry when I get back. The gemstone on your head is of average quality. Return it to your sister when you're done using it."

"Understood." Ning Xianxian responded obediently, and then blinked at Ning Chengcheng.

Ning Chengcheng's lungs were about to explode, but he didn't dare to say a word.

As long as she dares to make Ning Xianxian feel unhappy, Ning Xianxian can directly drive her out of the carriage.

She has to endure.

When the group arrived at the door, the carriage was already waiting. Surprisingly, Ning Tianyou was also waiting at the door on the horse.

Li Yanjun said: "You'er, you..."

"Mother, it was the father who ordered the children to escort the younger sisters into the palace." Ning Tianyou glanced at Ning Xianxian and said calmly.

"Since it's your father's intention, let's go together." Li Yanjun didn't say anything, he helped his mother-in-law's hand and boarded the carriage.

Ning Xianxian got into his carriage with Jade.

Because of her status as princess, she was allowed to bring a servant girl to serve her, but the rest of Li Yanjun, Ning Chengcheng and others were not allowed to bring followers.

The chariots and horses of the Ning family left the alley and headed for the imperial palace.

On the way, I met carriages and horses from several other families, all of which were carrying wives and young ladies.The road, which was not spacious at all, was immediately blocked.
