Chapter 506 Taking care of Xier is the most important thing

The tall and straight green bamboos dance lightly in the wind, rustling and making elegant sounds.

Ning Fengzhe sat quietly observing the scenery, thinking deeply and worrying about the long term, thinking hard and making careful plans for the overall situation.

Wen Jia came running over in a hurry, looking anxious, and interrupted the young master's thoughts.

"My lord, the third young lady can't hold on any longer and is crying from hunger. What should we do?"

Upon hearing that Xier was in trouble, Ning Fengzhe subconsciously left his seat and took two steps forward in a hurry.

"Didn't I ask you to give half of my monthly allowance to Xi'er?"

Wen Jia was concerned about the situation in the bedroom and felt helpless and nervous.

"A few days ago, when Madam Liu's monthly allowance came to an end, the young master instructed that his monthly allowance be divided in two. Did you forget?"

"However, the Third Miss's food needs are increasing day by day, and half of the Young Master's monthly allowance is no longer enough for her."

Ning Fengzhe made a quick decision.

"Give her the remaining half, too."

Wen Jia's pupils trembled, and he was filled with astonishment.

"what?"

"What does the young master eat?"

Ning Fengzhe acted as if nothing had happened and didn't take it seriously.

"It's okay if I go hungry for a few days."

Wen Jia shook his head repeatedly, becoming even more worried.

"How can your precious body be harmed? This is absolutely unacceptable. Please think twice."

Ning Fengzhe remained unmoved and urged solemnly.

"Taking care of Xi'er is the most important thing. You don't need to say anything. Just do as I say."

Wen Jia thought about it for a moment and immediately came up with an idea.

"How about this, I will give you half of my monthly salary, I hope you won't give up."

Ning Fengzhe decisively refused.

"Your monthly allowance is not much to begin with, so keep it for yourself and don't worry about me."

Wen Jia looked conflicted and embarrassed.

"But... Your Excellency's noble body..."

Ning Fengzhe had made up his mind and was unwilling to change it, so he urged again.

"Don't let Xi'er cry for too long. Go and prepare some food. I'll go and comfort her."

Wen Jia was troubled.

"Yes."

The two of them acted separately, Ning Fengzhe took two steps at a time and went to the next bedroom to look after Xier.

Wen Jia acted quickly and decisively. After a while, he rushed back with food.

"Sir, the food is warm and just right. Please enjoy your meal, Miss San."

Ning Fengzhe didn't have time to reply and hurriedly took the bowl and spoon.

When Ning Yunxi got closer and smelled the fragrance of the food, she stopped crying immediately, smacked her little lips to indicate that she wanted to be fed, and babbled, which was extremely adorable.

"elder brother……"

Ning Fengzhe saw this and held his forehead in his hands, feeling helpless and not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"You are such a greedy little cat."

As he said that, he picked up the spoon and started feeding her.

Seeing Xier eating with gusto, he couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

When Wen Jia had some free time, he gave more advice.

"Sir, I heard from my family that children should not go hungry at the age of nine, or they will develop a disease that will be very difficult to recover from when they grow up."

"Please forgive me for taking the initiative and leaving a portion of your monthly allowance to provide you with delicious food."

Ning Fengzhe still refused.

"Even if I keep it, I won't eat it."

"I have made up my mind, please stop trying to persuade me."

Wen Jia lowered his head in disappointment.

"Yes."

Ning Fengzhe was thinking about a strategy and asked immediately.

"How is mother today?"

Wen Jia was shocked when he realized it later, and he was so focused on the third girl that he almost forgot about this important matter.

"correct."

"Madam, please visit the Mu Mansion at noon."

"The spies reported that Lord Mu and his men are in the mansion. They did not go out today. They must be waiting to have dinner with Madam."

The timing was clever, and Ning Fengzhe was delighted when he heard it.

"Excellent! While you're at it, I can have a meal."

Wen Jia followed suit and smiled.

"Yes and that's right."

"I am really stupid. I didn't even think of this."

"There is no time to lose this opportunity, please come in now, sir."

Ning Fengzhe stroked Xier's little face twice, doting on her and entrusting her to Wen Jia.

"Well, okay, thank you for your hard work in taking care of Xi'er."

Wen Jia bowed and took it with both hands.

"I am humbled and honored to serve the Third Lady. It is my due responsibility."

Ning Fengzhe was worried and looked back every few steps before finally leaving Xier's bedroom.

……

When Ning Fengzhe arrived at the Mu Mansion, the Mu family was having dinner.

Hearing the servant's report that Young Master Ning wanted to see him, Mu Huan and his wife put down their chopsticks at the same time and were both overjoyed.

Mu Erxuan and his wife, and Mu Erchen, were also happy and delighted.

Among the family members at the table, only Mu Rong was unhappy and could not laugh.

Mu Huan missed her every day after not seeing her for a long time and couldn't wait to agree.

"Hurry up and prepare the sedan chair to bring my grandson here."

The servant took the order and quickly invited Master Ning to the dining room.

Ning Fengzhe followed the rules and saluted in turn.

"Please wish you the best, Grandfather and Grandmother..."

Before the ceremony was over, he was stopped by Mu Huan.

"Okay, I'll make the decision. My family will have dinner. No need to be polite. Fengzhe, please stand up."

Ning Fengzhe gave him a well-behaved smile.

"Thank you, grandpa."

Mu Huanci smiled kindly and waved to him.

"The dishes and chopsticks are ready. Fengzhe, come here and sit next to your grandfather."

Ning Fengzhe bowed respectfully.

"Yes, thank you grandpa."

Mu Huan couldn't wait, so he walked over himself, picked up his grandson, and sat down with him.

"Hahaha, it's been a while since I last saw you. My eldest grandson has gained weight again."

Zou Yuxiu was a straightforward person and spoke quickly, and she immediately started with a complaint.

"Master, you are talking nonsense. Fengzhe has obviously lost weight."

Mu Erxuan looked at his nephew with pride in his eyes.

"I think the hard work in school has exhausted Fengzhe."

"Don't worry, mother. Fengzhe is studying hard. This is a good thing."

Zou Yuxiu disagreed.

"You're talking nonsense too."

"It's a good thing for a young age to have fun."

Mu Erxuan became jealous.

"As the eldest son, I never listened to my mother's words when I was young."

Zou Yuxiu was willful and casual, throwing out a set of excuses.

"You are naughty and must be strictly disciplined; my grandson is obedient and completely different from you, so the way he is brought up must be different."

Mur Chen became jealous.

"The mother also commented that the child was obedient, how could she not see such consideration?"

Zou Yuxiu pointed out the mistakes casually, with only her beloved grandson in her eyes and heart.

"You love to join in any fun, just like your brother, you are extremely naughty."

Mu Huan had a stern face, just like everyone else, protecting his beloved grandson.

"Don't quarrel. No one is allowed to compete with my grandson for his favor."

After these words were spoken, they all fell silent.

Mu Huan smiled with satisfaction, glanced at his grandson, and his face became kind again.

"My dear grandson, I heard from your mother that you are so busy with school that you don't even come home for lunch. You work day and night, are so eager to learn, and have no time to visit your grandparents."

"Why are you free today?"

The lie was about to be exposed, and Mu Rong was nervous, hoping that her son would show mercy and let her go.

As his fear grew, Ning Fengzhe did not hesitate to expose the lie.

"Ok?"

"It's strange. I only study for an hour every day and I can finish my homework. Why does mother say that I am busy studying all day long?"

"Also, it's not that I didn't intend to come to visit, but my mother said that the Mu family is busy with official business and asked me not to disturb them."

"I came here today because I missed my family. I thought it would be enough to just take a look at them from a distance..."

Before she could finish her words, the eyes of everyone at the table turned oppressive on her, like a dark cloud covering the sun. Mu Rong had nowhere to hide. She was terrified and dared not breathe.

Mu Huan questioned sternly, his tone heavy as a thousand-pound rock.

"Rong'er, why are you behind our backs not allowing us, the grandparents and grandchildren, to meet?"
