Facing the urging of the third brother, Ning Wuxiao glanced at the empty table, and then at the account book and signature voucher held in Zhu Xu's arms, and smiled apologetically.

"It's hard for Brother Zhu to put these away, and then come to eat and drink."

"Childe laughed, this is a matter of my duty, so why talk about hard work."

Zhu Xu is not polite, but really does not feel hard.

In the past, when he was useless, he only felt that life was hard and that his life was coming to an end, but since he entered the perfume shop, he found that his life had just begun.

It may be true that Childe is tired because of his busy schedule, but the reward and dignity he receives for this make it impossible for him to represent his hardship.

He's not working hard, he's just working hard.

It's just about trying to create a better environment for your future.

Besides, the monthly silver doubled every month, but he couldn't say the word hard work.

After seeing Zhu Xu leave, Ning Wuxian stood up, stretched his waist, and saw that the third brother was holding a small dagger in his hand, the texture was indistinguishable, but at a glance, it looked like a token of his daughter's family.

He couldn't help but gossip curiously: "Third brother, it can't be that the aunts and aunts are planning to set a marriage for you before you go to Beijing, right?" How can you have the girl's things in your hands? ”

"Fifth brother, don't talk nonsense, this is ...... It was a practice gift sent by Miss Xirou, saying that she wanted to come to say goodbye tomorrow, but she occasionally felt a cold, and was afraid of being sick with us, so she specially sent a dagger made by her hometown, which is said to have the meaning of a talisman, and hoped that I would be safe and sound when I went out. ”

Ning Wuxian, who received such a gift for the first time, looked a little unnatural.

Ning Wuxiao couldn't say whether it was sweet or sullen, anyway, his third brother seemed to have opened his mind, holding the dagger in his hand and putting it intimately, with a smile in his eyes.

Talking about this, he forgot to urge him to take a seat, and it wasn't until the second aunt sent someone to invite him again that he came back to his senses, smiled awkwardly, and dragged Ning Wuxian's sleeve to the courtyard of the main hall.

Tonight's practice is a family feast.

Only the Ning family's own people were present.

said that they were their own people, but in fact, they were all familiar faces, and those uncles and three cousins who had never seen each other since they crossed over were still unable to come back because they didn't ask for leave.

It's a pity that after they were transferred, they also deviated more than a hundred miles from the route that Ning Wuxian was about to go to the capital, and they couldn't even stop by to visit.

This made Ning Wuxian deeply understand why the ancients were separated and always regarded as a return date without meeting.

Because sometimes a separation, it really may be that we will never see each other again.

"It's okay, you're really a busy person, you haven't come here after so many times, so sit next to the second uncle."

Ning Weiguo specially asked for leave today and came back early.

Otherwise, once you are stumped by things, it is very likely that you will stay in the government.

Recently, there have been a lot of things going on in the government.

Whether it is to maintain order in post-disaster reconstruction, or to dispatch manpower to cooperate with the garrison to arrest and bring down foreign enemies in various counties, or to deal with those who come to the government to borrow the name of talents and deceive and subsidize money.

Everything needs Ning Weiguo, a Zhaomo official, to appoint the yamen manpower.

Fortunately, although things were busy, Ning Weiguo enjoyed it, like a fish in water, thinking that all this was obtained by his little nephew, Ning Weiguo glanced at his wife.

Ning Zhangshi glanced at him, took a palm-sized brocade box from the hand of the maidservant behind him, and pushed it in front of Ning Wuxian.

"Second aunt, what is this?"

"The token left by your mother back then, saying that it was a noble person who had saved the capital, and it was specially left to her, but your mother didn't use it, and asked me to keep it for you before she died, saying that if Ningfu returned to the capital one day, she would take it out to your father or the future head of the family, and now you want to go to the capital, and it will be handed over to you for safekeeping."

Grandpa is still in my custody?

Ning Wuxian was in a relaxed state at this time, his mind didn't turn at all, and just about to refuse, Ning Weiguo had already taken the brocade box and stuffed it into his arms.

"It's okay, you take it, this is originally a younger brother and sister's thing, it's just right for you to use, besides, it's yours sooner or later anyway."

No.

Ning Wuxiao couldn't laugh or cry at these remarks.

Why is it his sooner or later?

"Second uncle, I have four older brothers above, and it is not my turn to be the head of the family, so I should go back and hand over this token to my grandfather."

Anyway, grandpa was detained in the capital and became the "hostage" of the old emperor, waiting for him to go to "unblock".

You can always come across it, and it doesn't hurt to transfer it on your behalf.

He said it lightly, wanting to weaken this matter, but Ning Weiguo obviously disagreed, and deliberately taught a lesson: "Okay, don't you understand, my Ning family is now recovering, it is precisely because of your existence, yes, my father is alive, and the head of the family cannot change hands, but in our opinion, you are enough to mobilize all the connections and strength of the Ning family, and only you have this ability." ”

Don't talk about qualifications, just talk about ability.

Ning Wuxian is really deserved.

He glanced around and saw that his cousins were all nodding slightly, and even Ning Zhifeng echoed a sentence: "When the fifth brother becomes the head of the family, am I the only sister of the head of the family, and I can follow him to eat and drink spicy food?" ”

"Hahaha! Zhifeng, haven't you eaten and drunk spicy food now? The pickled pepper chicken feet in your hand make your mouth red. ”

"Nonsense, I secretly wiped my mother's lips to be red."

Ning Zhifeng viciously gnawed another bite of chicken claws, and spit out the bones to the big yellow dog tied not far away.

But because of her small strength, she was far away, and her bones were half a foot away from the big yellow dog.

But the big yellow dog was honestly lying on the ground, just raised its eyelids and glanced at Ning Wuxian, and seeing that the owner did not greet him, he didn't move at all and continued to lie on the spot.

When everyone saw this, they were all amazed.

Ning Weiguo's eyes lit up even more, and he asked with great interest: "Okay, where did you come from this dog?" ”

"Zhang's Zhuangzi was raised, second uncle, you want to tame it yourself, Rhubarb is going to accompany me to Beijing, this dog and cat and other creatures are more clever than people, you can help take care of them on the road, and you can tease if you are bored."

In the past, the Ning family didn't dare to think about teasing cats and dogs when they traveled.

Even now, if someone else says so, they feel a little discouraged, but if this person is unharmed.

Without these hobbies as inspiration, how could we compose those quatrains and poems?

Play!

Open to play!

"The flowers have bloomed again, no one is young, you went to the capital, it is still early before the time of the competition, have fun to your heart's content, and enjoy the customs of the capital."

Ning Weiguo raised his wine glass and glanced at Ning Wuxian, but he couldn't help but redden.

"It's okay for you too, don't patronize martial arts, when you moved from the capital south to Luohe Road, your mother was not pregnant with you, and you didn't appreciate the scene of the capital, when the time comes, go out with Wuxiao, lack of money, ask your fifth brother for it."

“……”

The emotion that Ning Wujian was about to rise up was annihilated all at once.

Thinking that since he was a child, he has never asked his father for money, thinking about going through the years, if he wins the martial arts champion in the coming year, he still doesn't know whether he will get an official position, go to the battlefield, or return to his hometown, and Cheng Huan will kneel.

He held out his right hand toward his father.

"Dad, it's the beginning of the month, you should have paid money, why don't you give me some, or buy some special products on the way to send them back to you."
