Seeing the two little ones talking, Liu Xu's eyes were very soft. She likes this feeling, and likes that everyone is right by her side now.
After the lively New Year, a dessert shop quietly appeared in the capital. Just opened for less than a week, and it has become an online celebrity shop in Beijing.
There is an endless stream of customers coming in and out of the dessert shop every day, ranging from dignitaries to peddlers and pawns, no one can say anything wrong. Sitting in the mansion counting money, Liu Xu's eyes were about to smile. She threw off the silver note in her hand and carefully locked it in the small box, which was all the dowry she had saved for Wanwan.
Because of the Hou Mansion standing behind him, even if someone wanted to make up their minds, they could only give up embarrassingly. After all, with the downfall of several major families, Xiao Jinting also became a newcomer in the court.
Now he is the Marquis of Zhenyuan appointed by the emperor, and his scenery is the same. Zhou Yun also recovered again. In the past, he was disheartened because of Yufu's disappearance. Now that Yufu is back, so is his ambition.
With the fall of the Ning family, Ning Fan's career also had some twists and turns. Although he had taken refuge with the emperor early on, he was Ning Xiang's biological son after all, and he couldn't get a good deal from the fall of the Ning family.
He has not been in the capital for less than half a year, and he will take his wife and children to take office abroad. As for when he will return to Beijing next time, it will depend on what political achievements he can make.
When she saw the news from Jiang Chan, the catkins were much calmer. Let's go, the farther you go, the better. It's best not to have any intersections in this life.
She had the impression that Ning Fan stayed in the capital after returning to Beijing, and until her death, the Ning family was very beautiful in the capital. As the favored granddaughter of the Ning family, Ning Miao is very popular in the capital.
But now she is like a phoenix depilated, and she can no longer see the grace and luxury later.
Jiang Chan: "The downfall of the Ning family is inevitable, and Ning Fan is too shrewd in his calculations. If the Ning family does not fall, his career will be smoother. If the Ning family fails, it doesn't matter, he has long since surrendered to the emperor. , Although there are some twists and turns in the career, but the danger is not life."
"He's a smart man, and he can be said to be exhausted."
Liu Xu: "Maybe, I don't like people like this. Raising children like Ning Miao, isn't that harming others?"
Jiang Chan suddenly laughed: "Ning Fan and the Yue clan dote on Ning Miao, but they do not teach her, they do not teach her to take up her responsibilities and obligations. Ning Miao is a good concubine, but it is difficult to become a virtuous wife. Will serve in Israel."
Liu Xu gasped: "Auntie, your evaluation is good... mean!"
Jiang Chan: "I'm telling the truth. If you look closely at Ning Miao, you'll find that she doesn't have any strengths except for her face. Whenever she gets into trouble, she needs someone else to help her recover."
"I don't know right from wrong, I don't talk about morality, I'm selfish, as long as she has a good life, she can't see the blood and tears of others. Perhaps because she has always been favored by Ning Fan and her husband, she seldom understands others, and always only cares about others. See yourself."
Liu Xu said in a daze: "You're right. Later, I thought about my past decades. Xiao Yanlin was indeed wrong, but is Ning Miao really pure and flawless?"
"It's gone late, if it wasn't for Ning Miao, would she have suffered such a catastrophe? Just because of a few quarrels, she couldn't bear people. Xiao Yanlin never thought that she was his sister. But Ning Miao She can't see our sadness and sadness, she only thinks of herself, and she doesn't tell the truth at all."
"Even if she gets married into the general's mansion, she still has many suitors. I'm not saying that most of the suitors are her fault, but as a married woman, you should know how to avoid suspicion, right?"
"She is like a dodder, who will only live by others forever."
Jiang Chan sighed: "So for a person like her, it would be unfortunate for any family to marry her. For such a marriage, it is not a marriage but an enmity. It is enough that they leave, and it will not be so easy to see each other again in the future."
As for the future entanglement, who can tell?
Liu Xu: "You said that Ning Miao left the capital, her fate with Xiao Yanlin..."
Jiang Chan: "Who knows? Fate is an elusive thing. Maybe Xiao Yanlin will still give up on Ning Miao in this life?"
Liu Xu was silent for a long time: "Let him go, I can't control him."
Ning Fan didn't expect the Ning family to fall so quickly. As the unloved third-family member of the Ning family, he was usually far away from the core area of the Ning family. Although he generally knew some secrets of the Ning family, but in his plan, the Ning family should not collapse so soon.
Originally, Ning Fan wanted to do his best for the emperor. After his career went smoothly, even if the Ning family collapsed, he was already the emperor's minister at that time.
But he is only a fifth-rank official now. Although he has the ability, he is not enough to make the emperor pay special attention. Moreover, the role he played in the liquidation of several major families this time was indeed very small.
Now that he was sent back to his hometown to be a small county magistrate, it was already the emperor who was particularly gracious.
The Yue family was a little panicked: "Husband, your career..."
Ning Fan smiled bitterly: "That's it."
Yue's family: "Then what's the point? These are all their faults, how could the retribution fall on us? Zhuo'er and Chang'er are still young, and Miaomiao, how can she find a good family in the future? "
She stayed in the capital for less than half a year, and naturally she lived a very good life. Originally, she thought that she would stay in the capital all the time, so that her son and daughter would have a good future in the future.
Now back to the place where birds don't lay eggs, where do children go to find a good family?
Ning Fan sighed: "As long as she is surnamed Ning, those high-profile families will not be able to enter. Unless Zhuo'er and Chang'er become successful in the future, they can become her support."
Ning Zhuo gritted his teeth: "Father, I will study hard when I go back, and honor our Ning family."
Ning Fan touched his head: "Okay."
Yue's family: "This time the Ning family and several big families suffered disasters, but Zhenyuan Hou's Mansion and Pingyang Hou's Mansion got a lot of benefits. I heard that the Zhenyuan Hou's was a famous playboy in the capital before."
Ning Fan chuckled: "You guys, you are just being deceived by appearances. He is not a playboy, he is keeping a low profile, and has long been the emperor's confidant. His eldest brother Xiao Jinhang used to be the emperor's companion, but unfortunately he died young. "
If Xiao Jinhang was still there, where would Xiao Jinting be today? But this is everyone's fate, and now he and Xiao Jinting are worlds apart.
The Yue family was stirring up the veil; "Husband, since you know Marquis Zhenyuan, then Miaomiao... I heard that Marquis Zhenyuan had a son, and he was highly valued by the deceased old general... He is also two years older than Miaomiao."
Ning Fan smiled bitterly: "I mentioned it vaguely before, but the other party categorically rejected it. He is now the Marquis, and I'm just a seventh-rank county magistrate. Besides, the Ning family used to..."
