The two sides went back and forth, grinding their mouths for most of the day, and Li Jingnan finally agreed to subsidize Ning Yunyao with fifty taels of silver every month.

These fifty taels of silver are already a lot, like the official eunuchs below the five-rank official, where are they willing to invest fifty taels of silver in their daughter every month.

But in Ning Yunyao's eyes, this is far from enough.

What is this money? Her younger brother Ning Xueyu can gamble in half a day.

"Okay, fifty taels is fifty taels, it's a big deal, I just save some flowers."

Ning Yunyao still put on an expression of underbeating, seeing Li Jingnan grit his teeth, if it weren't for Ning Qiuyue's sake, he would have driven Ning Yunyao out of the palace a long time ago.

"Since this is the case, then you go back and clean up, and the king will send someone to send you to the Du family later."

"So fast?"

"Yes, it's that fast."

"No, don't you hate to see me so much?" Ning Yunyao asked very directly.

"yes, I hate to see you." Li Jingnan also replied very simply.

"Hmph, okay then." Ning Yunyao snorted coldly, turned her head and walked towards her room.

She is not interested in this stingy man who has a lot of eyes, let her go, anyway, it will be the day of the draft girl in a few days.

The day of the draft girl.

Ning Yunyao got up early in the morning, finished dressing up in the service of the maid Zi Cicada, and said goodbye to Mrs. Du, the old man of the Du family, one by one. With an excited heart, I got on the mule cart that had been prepared in advance.

This mule cart is not luxurious, the grade is completely set by Master Du's official rank, if it is too gorgeous, it is not in line with the identity of the daughter of an eight-rank official.

The mule cart bumped all the way to the palace gates.

Ning Yunyao gently opened the curtain of the mule cart, and looked out curiously with a pair of smart eyes.

Outside, there are also mule carts that come to the draft girl like her, big and small, expensive and cheap. In general, most of them are luxurious and exquisite, and few are simple and rough.

She began to be unhappy again, hum, I don't know if this Li Jingnan did it on purpose, I found a petty official of the eighth grade to be my father, even if I soar in the future, it will be a joke to say it.

She looked down at the clothes on her body, the fabric was extremely ordinary, and the colors and patterns were also the styles of the old years, and her heart was even more refreshing.

"I'm sorry, what do you say to carve naturally, and the water comes out of the hibiscus. It's all blind, and the difference between women and women is not big, and it all depends on who can dress up better to win. ”

"Second Miss, what did you say?" Zi Cicada is a girl who is a little stupid by nature, and it is precisely because she is stupid that she can always stay in Ning Yunyao's identity. If she had changed to another maid, she would have been unable to stand Ning Yunyao's temper for a long time.

Ning Yunyao never had a good face towards her, and glared at her. "It's nothing, you don't understand it anyway."

After getting off the mule cart, Ning Yunyao followed many women into the palace.

This time, they did not have a chance to meet the emperor.

The primary election does not require the participation of the emperor.

The requirements for the primary election are simple and difficult. It is nothing more than that the grandmother will screen the women who are running for the election one by one according to the rules set by the ancestors. Regardless of height, figure, facial features, appearance, scars, body odor, body defects, etc., unified screening and screening.

All this is naturally simple for Ning Yunyao.

Because before that, she already knew very well what the primary selection would be, and she was also very clear about whether she met the conditions.

If she wasn't absolutely sure of herself, she wouldn't be clamoring to come to the draft girl.

Sure enough, when the purple cicada caught her outside, she was full of spring breeze.

"Second Miss, did you choose?"

"Needless to say."

Ning Yunyao's face was proud.

On the other hand, a woman next to her was full of sadness, and there seemed to be tears in the corners of her eyes.

Zi Cicada looked at the woman a little, just looking at the appearance, she definitely couldn't find anything wrong with it, and she was even a few points more beautiful than her own young lady.

Looking at the dress, it is also an ordinary cloth clothes, there are very few accessories on the body, and the hairpins on the hair bun and the earrings on the ears are not very valuable. It seems that his father's official position should not exceed the sixth rank.

However, whether or not you can be selected has nothing to do with money and status, it mainly depends on the woman herself.

"Second Miss, the slave maid sees that the girl next to you is also very beautiful and moving, but why didn't you choose it?"

The purple cicada is also out of curiosity, but there is no malicious intent.

But Ning Yunyao was different, she turned her head to look. Covering his mouth and laughing, he didn't forget to say loudly after laughing enough: "The girl next to her has a smell under her armpits, and she has stunned two of the selected grandmothers." Hahaha......"

Her laughter was happy.

But this practice of basing one's own happiness on the suffering of others is simply shameful.

When the woman heard Ning Yunyao's words, she felt even inferior, and she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Coupled with the fact that there were other people around, everyone burst into laughter.

The woman was embarrassed, as if she had been discovered as a thief, and she could only hold her head and run away.

When Zi Cicada saw this scene, she was very upset. She silently blamed herself for asking such a question, if she didn't ask, there would be no current scene.

But Ning Yunyao was very happy, and she stepped on the mule cart with one foot and drove home happily.

When she arrived at Du Mansion, Mrs. Du naturally received her very warmly. Not only did he ask about her situation, but he also prepared a large table of delicious food for her.

In the house, Ning Yunyao doesn't have to call her father.

She has always been like this, with a big lady's temper.

On the first day she came to Du Mansion, Master Du and Mrs. Du knew about it. So the two old men didn't force her to call her father, but when outsiders were present, they would still remind her that she should call her father and mother.

In addition, the Du couple also has an only son named Du Hao.

When Du Hao was born at that time, Master Du thought that since he already had a son, it would be perfect to have a daughter in the future. Therefore, the single name of this son was given a "good" character, implying that the Du family had children and daughters, and it made up the meaning of a "good" word.

Who would have thought that nothing would be born in the future, and Master Du is an extremely dedicated man, who only likes his original wife, and is not interested in taking concubines. So in the past seventeen or eighteen years, only Du Hao has such a child as the old couple who have depended on each other.

Fortunately, Du Hao is also quite competitive, not only good at learning, but also strong and strong, and his martial arts are also quite good.

But there is only one thing that Ning Yunyao doesn't like very much. That is, this Du is not used to her, from the first day she entered the Du Mansion, he was not used to her.

This time, the two ate at the same table again, and it was inevitable that there would be a big and small contradiction.
