On December 19, 3051 in the Gregorian calendar, ten days before the Chinese New Year's Eve. On this day, the originally calm square of Ningjiabao was very lively. People stood in a circle around the open space in the center of the square, men and women, young and old, all chattering and noisy, the closer to the New Year, the more excited people were, not to mention that today was a special day.

On December 19 every year, Ningjiabao has an annual year-end summary meeting. At this meeting, the lord and the elders take stock of the past and look to the future. Then we will recognize some of the burghers who have excelled during the year. Finally, some relief items will be distributed to those who are living in difficulty.

This year's conference is no exception, at ten o'clock the conference began, first by the castle lord Ning Feng summed up the achievements of the past year, and then in the next year to prepare the goals to be completed, and finally said some words of encouragement. Ning Feng said that it was all the elders, and the elders in turn explained the problems encountered or found in the areas under their jurisdiction one by one.

The leaders on the stage were endless, and everyone in the audience listened to it drowsily. The most representative is Ning Fan, recently his "Eighteen Moves of Short Soldier Weapons" is being cultivated, which can be regarded as a waste of sleep and food. Now in this meeting, as soon as the body relaxes, sleepiness naturally comes, and after a while, I fall asleep. Ning Jiexiu beside him originally listened very carefully, but after listening to it for a while, he found that it was very boring and began to look left and right, and then he saw Ning Fan who was drooling from sleep. Angry, she directly squeezed Ning Fan's thigh and twisted it fiercely.

Ning Fan's sleeping Zhengxiang was suddenly woken up by the pain, very annoyed, turned his head and glared at Ning Jiexiu angrily, but Ning Jiexiu was proud. What kind of expression do you dare to have. Ning Fan was helpless and defeated.

However, at this time, the speech on the stage was also nearing the end. The next step is to commend you. Elder Ning Qing read a large number of names on the stage, and those who read the names came to the stage happily. I didn't read it with a look of frustration. Ning Fan looked at the pile of people and found that he didn't know any of them, alas, this little young master is really useless.

Among the people who commended these commendations were the elders of the branch and the like, as well as farmers, merchants, craftsmen, etc., all kinds of professions, in a word, as long as you have outstanding contributions to Ningjiabao, then you can be recommended. Those who work in the fort can be recommended by their superiors, merchants can be recommended by the chamber of commerce, and craftsmen can be recommended by the neighbors. Farmers can be recommended by the governor.

If the rewarded things have their own cultivation, then the rewards are generally used for cultivation, such as pills, weapons, soul pets, and mental methods. The reward for not cultivating is two money.

After this group of people goes down, the next thing is the teenager, the children of Ningjiabao are all in the Xingdou students in the imperial capital, and they are ranked very well, just refer to the final results of the academy. As the top ten in terms of age, Ning Fan was naturally called. Also on the road were Ning Jieli and Ning Jieming. Only Ning Jiexiu is left to pout angrily below. In the end, Ning Fan was given a machete about forty centimeters long. The material is not bad. Ning Jieli is a Xuantie-grade Guji Dan. She has been at the bronze level for a long time, and she may break through to the Xuantie level at any time, when this elixir is officially needed for her. As for Ning Jieming, he got a copy of the "Knife Book" mental method. This mental method belongs to the bronze level, which is two levels higher than his previous mental method. Alas, there is no way, cultivation is originally a matter that costs money, and for poor families, cultivation not only depends on strong perseverance, but also relies on their own more times to make up for the gap with those young masters and young ladies who were born with golden spoons.

Ning Jieming and Ning Jieli happily held the reward, Ning Fan, well, it's quite happy, if he hadn't gotten the ruler before, Ning Fan would be happy to see this knife, but after having a ruler, it would be normal to look at this knife.

Ning Jiexiu's eyes were full of jealousy in the audience, and when he saw Ning Fan's indifferent expression, he didn't fight anymore. Ning Jiexiu is not lacking in those things, her father is also a prominent external elder, there is nothing at home, she just likes the feeling of standing on the stage with her friends. She didn't have a chance to experience it, but Ning Fan, who had the opportunity to experience it, didn't care, which made her not angry. So as soon as Ning Fan came, Ning Jiexiu screwed it down again. Ning Fan looked at Ning Jiexiu angrily, thinking that this little girl was still addicted. Isn't it going to teach her a good lesson one day?

Putting aside the farce in the audience for the time being, Elder Ning Yuan, who was in charge of punishment among the elders on the stage, got up and walked out. When everyone saw Elder Ning Yuan come out, they instantly fell silent.

I saw Elder Ning Yuan standing in the middle of the clearing and said: "Son of Ning Yun, Ning Chen colluded with people with foreign surnames to oppress members of his own clan during his school days at the Imperial Capital Star Dou Academy, and under the warning of the accompanying elders, he repeatedly refused to change his teachings, and the circumstances were serious, so it is now decided to expel him from the Ning family, remove his name on the family tree, and take back the mansion where he lives and the cultivated land he belongs to." Ning Chen, from now on, is no longer a person from Ningjiabao."

Elder Ning Yuan slowed down and said: "Now the 38th red notice of Ningjiabao is issued, the wanted person Ning Chen, now knows the strength of the bronze level nine grades, and the crime he committed is traitorous to the enemy, once the disciples of Ningjiabao meet this person in the future, if the conditions allow, they will reward silver-level high-grade treasures for killing this person, reward silver-level lower-grade treasures for seriously injuring this person, and reward bronze-level to Xuantie-level treasures according to the severity of the information."

As soon as Elder Ning Yuan finished speaking, the people below were boiling. How long has it been, how long has it been since Ningjiabao issued a bounty order. I remember that the last time the reward was ordered was seven years ago, and Ning Yun was wanted by the bounty, oh my God, everyone who reacted quickly had already reacted, and Ning Yun was Ning Chen's father. Both father and son were wanted with a bounty. Alas, this is really .......

Here Ning Jieming and the three of them looked at Ning Fan with a surprised expression, Ning Fan was very calm, shrugged his shoulders and said: "Don't be surprised, sooner or later there will be this day, Ning Chen's betrayal of the family is impossible to ignore."

"But, but, you don't need to make such a big noise."

"Sister Lili, didn't you expect that the family did this, firstly, to show outsiders, and secondly, to warn us not to think wildly, the fate of traitors is not good." Ning Jieming explained.

Ning Fan nodded and said, "Let's go, it's time for lunch, Jieming, don't you want a weapon of silver quality, the next time you meet Ning Chen, your weapon will be in hand."

Ning Jieming looked at Ning Jieli who was disappointed and said: "Sister Lili, don't think about it, Ning Fan knows more than we know, Ning Chen, there should be other bad things, Ning Fan may know, so he doesn't have a good impression of him."

"Okay, I just feel that Ning Chen is such a promising person, how can he become like this, the time in the forest, the time in the academy, Ning Chen seems to have changed as a person." Ning Jieli said.

"Sister Lili, you are too sentimental, this world is actually not as beautiful as you think."

"Okay, okay, don't talk about it, whether you can go or not, everyone is gone, you can't leave, it doesn't matter if he Ning Chen is dead or alive, Sister Lili, don't be sad, have you forgotten that he almost killed us all in the forest, this kind of person should have died early." Ning Jieming wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Ning Jiexiu next to him. Ning Jieming wanted to say something, but Ning Jiexiu on the side had already pulled Ning Jieli away.

In the days that followed, as time went on, the smell of the New Year became stronger and stronger. The New Year of this world is similar to the original world, as soon as it enters the twentieth day of the lunar month, every household begins to be busy making all kinds of delicious things.

After Chinese New Year's Eve, it was the first day of the new year, and on this day Ning Fan got up early, first to Ning Feng and Lin Wan'er, and then to the visits of the elders, and then to the elders. Finally, there is Ning Jieli, Ning Jiexiu and Ning Jieming's family. This lap passed in the morning. After having lunch with his parents in the family, Ning Fan returned to his small courtyard, looking at the pile of red envelopes on the bed, Ning Fan was really in no mood to care about them, if he was in the previous life, he would definitely be happy, but in this life, as a rich second generation, he really didn't worry about money.

The days passed day by day, and finally passed the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, and Ning Fan was really bored staying at home. He has already refined the mental method of "Eighteen Moves of Short Soldier Weapons" to the bottleneck, and he has not been improving a point for several days. On this day, Ning Fan decided to go out to change his mood, maybe he would gain something, and as soon as he walked to the door, he met Ning Jiexiu, who came to find her, and it was strange to say that since the student came back, the most people who looked for him were not Ning Jieming, who lived with him, but Ning Jiexiu.

Ning Jiexiu also shouted to go after knowing that he was going out, and called Ning Jieli by the way

Together, the three of them walked to the door of the workshop and met Ning Jieming, who came back from chopping wood. Ning Jieming knew that everyone was going out, so he ran home quickly, put the firewood, and ran back quickly. In the end, Ning Fan's walk that was originally planned to be one person turned into a picnic for four people. The four of them found a small river, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and played for a while. After the four of them were tired of playing, Bai Yun Ning Jiexiu, who was lying on the grass and looking at the sky, said: "Alas, it's so boring, I just eat and sleep at home, sleep and eat, it's boring."

"Yes, I was homesick when I was at school, and when I got home, I missed school, and I ate and slept like this every day, and I grew fat when I slept and ate." Ning Jieli said and touched her ruddy little face and said.

"Oh, you eldest ladies are really born in the blessing and don't know the blessings, I get up every morning before dawn to boil water and cook, clean the yard, go up the mountain to collect firewood, work in the field, herd sheep and feed cattle, and work all day, you are really enough, how good the life is to eat, sleep and eat every day, you still complain." Ning Jieming on the side said indignantly.

"I want to go back to the academy, will you go back?" Ning Fan asked.

"Yes, yes". The two girls said happily.

"It's so early." Benjamin hesitated.

"Benjamin, if you stay here now, let's go first, give you a front stop, it's okay, it's just a matter of ten days, it's gone in a blink of an eye, and soon we can meet again." Ning Jiexiu said.

"Okay, okay". Benjamin Ning was ambivalent.

Just do it, a few people got up and went home to pack their things, said yes to the family, and decided to leave in three days. Because there was Ning Fan in the team, an elder was specially sent to follow.

On the eleventh day of the first lunar month, on this day, Ning Fan, Ning Jiexiu, and Ning Jieli embarked on the journey back to the academy with large bags and small bags on their backs, and embarked on the journey back to the academy under Ning Jieming's envious eyes.
