So what if the county magistrate was clear?
She hadn't done anything wrong, so what if this dynasty governed the country with filial piety? She had already set up a woman's house, and legally speaking, it had nothing to do with Ning Family.
In terms of ethics, she had already given birth to a child, so she could be considered to be a 'married woman'. Why would a man who had a son have to be filial to those people from Ning Family? Three from the four virtues, three from the front, this proved that the great heavens and the earth raised the largest son.
Since the money was stolen, what was wrong with coming to find him? Standing on the side of the law, Ning Yan didn't think that she would be at a disadvantage if she saw an official.
Of course, being yelled at by the Elder Mrs. Lee, Ning Yan suddenly understood a little. She had to read through the law and not lose out in this aspect.
"I'm not a bandit. Call my mother out. I lost my money, and she disappeared as well …"
Ning Yan's words did not hide anyone, after all, those who were watching the show outside were also from the Ning Family, and there was no one who would be afraid to speak of it outside. Furthermore, even if there were outsiders, Ning Yan was not afraid. If others knew about this, they would have to bear the consequences.
Hearing Ning Yan's words, the people of Ning Family saw that the Mrs. Xu and the Li Clan were looking at them wrongly.
Throwing the sick Mrs. Xu into the head maid's thatched hut was sothing that even the Elder Mrs. Lee could do. As a mber of the, they all felt that it was shaful, but this was a family matter, the Patriarch did not even have the rights to interfere, much less the ordinary clansn like them.
Mrs. Xu was getting more and more powerful, she served him well while she stole her money.
The days in head maid were finally going to end …
There was also a Elder Mrs. Lee. Listen to what she was saying, just because of a dog, she was going to send the head maid to the officials.
This must be an enemy!
He didn't know how thick-skinned he was to be served by soone, and he even stole money from soone.
Being stared at in such a way, Mrs. Xu was in a daze and almost fell to the ground.
Her son was going to be an official. If her character wasn't good enough, her son wouldn't even have the qualifications to take the exam.
When his gaze landed on Ning Yan, his heart started to feel resentful. It was only taking a few taels of silver, she was her mother, why couldn't she take the money? Her body had already fallen from his body.
With regards to the Mrs. Xu's odd logic, Ning Yan was already too lazy to bother anymore.
To talk to soone and reason with them, that was the most ridiculous thing to do. To them, Ning Family was sothing that they had to fear.
The axe in his hand was flung out, landing right in front of Mrs. Xu's toes.
Just a milliter away from chopping off Mrs. Xu's toes.
"Ah …" Mrs. Xu scread as her body fell to the ground. At the sa ti, her pants beca wet.
Seeing the axe in front of Mrs. Xu, Ning Wan'er hid behind Elder Mrs. Lee and did not even dare stick her head out. Elder Mrs. Lee pointed at him while trembling and her wrinkled mouth started to tremble: "You, you are an evil ghost, you …"
The mont Elder Mrs. Lee said this, the wives that were surrounding the gate all shivered.
When they looked at Ning Yan, they were a little afraid. After all, these people had all seen Ning Yan's changes in the past few days, and they did not think about them in the past. Now that the Elder Mrs. Lee had ntioned it, coupled with Ning Yan's actions, their hearts had drifted off.
Ning Yan rolled his eyes and walked in front of the door. The oil lamp in the room emitted a faint light, but Ning Yan's shadow was still reflected in everyone's eyes.
"Ghosts don't have shadows. Nuo, look carefully, I have shadows." After Ning Yan finished speaking, her voice carried an obvious disappointnt, "Milk, are you going to force to death?"
"You little bastard, go and die!" "There is no such thing in life. If you want to kill my Chao Yang, do you want to kill my wife to make happy …" Elder Mrs. Lee was so infuriated by Ning Yan's unreasonable actions.
All sorts of rude words ca out of her mouth, and she even directly said that Ning Yan was a jinx in front of outsiders, and that she was the one who brought the jinx. One must know that in this era, if his family said that, he definitely wouldn't be able to get married.
If one didn't have a deep grudge, they wouldn't curse others in such a manner.
Listening to these words, Ning Yan finally cald down, and her gaze landed on the bag of money hung on Mrs. Xu's body.
He turned his head to look at a grey-haired old lady in front of the door. She was Ning Yan's great-grandmother and was already over seventy years old.
When people in their seventies saw the emperor, they didn't need to kneel down. Every day, they would receive a ssage from the imperial court. Such people were always revered by others.
"Grandmother, you have to uphold justice for . That money bag is …" Ning Yan was concerned about the increasing number of people in front of her door, but in the end, she did not say anything. "I plan to let you have enough money to study, and save up this hard-earned money for you, Mother should have given so, but I'm still so young and look even thinner than others.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Who can prove that the money is yours? Can you just yell at it?"
Afraid that the money on Mrs. Xu's body would be taken away by Ning Yan, Young Mrs. Lee broke away from Ning Huan's hand and suddenly scuttled out, extending a finger that was as thick as a radish and pointing it at Ning Yan.
"This …" Ning Yan looked at her ancestor grandma.
Her Grandmother let out a sigh. She didn't even look at the money pouch on Mrs. Xu's waist as she said helplessly, "Girl Ning, you're so strong. It's not easy to walk your own path in the future …"
"Only those who are strong can survive." With such a shaless family, he would definitely be humiliated to death.
Just like the original owner, then, what about the result after listening to Mrs. Xu's words?
He was so hungry that he could only skin and bones, and was even sold to Cripple Yang, there was no hope in life.
Therefore, he had to rely on himself.
After understanding Ning Yan's situation, the ancestor wanted to say sothing else, but she couldn't seem to say it out loud. She slowly opened her mouth and asked: "Can you prove that the money inside is yours?"
"Yes!" Ning Yan nodded.
She wanted to embarrass Ning Family and throw her face into the village, which would probably give her a period of peace. Previously, she thought that using force would be able to suppress this family, but …
The result wasn't friendly at all. As long as these people held on to their seniority, they would stand at the peak of reason.
"The money was ant to be more than enough for reading, so I marked it with ink."
"Let's go take a look!" With her words, a good thing woman walked in front of Mrs. Xu, tore off the bag of money that Mrs. Xu was carrying and walked in front of her.
He took out the silver and placed it on the ink.
"You guys, since Girl Ning already has a woman, it ans that she's a girl who's been married off. No matter what you say, for the water that is broken out from a married woman's body, if you still want to grind Girl Ning down, I will also exercise my elder's rights."
When she finished speaking, Elder Mrs. Lee's bark-like hands trembled.
It was not easy for her to live under this old fogey when she was young. Even when she thought about it now, she was still afraid.
