Chapter 594 My good daughter

In this way, Yan Yu and Ning Yunxi passed each other several times, and they still did not recognize each other until Ning Yunxi turned eighteen.

This year, Ning Hanwang tried his best in business but failed again.

It is already unclear how many times he has failed in recent years. In short, he has not succeeded once.

This time they even suffered a loss and couldn't even keep the Ning Mansion, leaving the whole family with almost no place to live.

Guessing that his sister must be soft-hearted, Ning Fengzhe made a quick decision and escaped as soon as he heard it.

He rushed to Xiangzhuyuan in a hurry and made a direct request without waiting to catch his breath.

"Xi'er, come with me for a while. The matter is urgent. Let's leave as soon as possible."

Ning Yunxi asked questions as usual.

"What's the urgent matter? Where are you going out?"

The incident happened suddenly, and Ning Fengzhe had no idea what to say, so he had to make the excuse that he was in a hurry.

"There's no time to explain. Come with me and we'll talk on the way."

Ning Yunxi trusted him without any doubt and agreed readily.

"Okay, I'll take some self-defense equipment and go with you."

Suddenly remembering something, Ning Fengzhe asked to confirm.

"How many keys are there to Huichuntang's storeroom? Who has them?"

Ning Yunxi was caught off guard and blurted out the answer.

"Three. One is in my hand; the second is kept by Qiubi; the third is kept in the hall for future use."

After thinking about it, she sensed something was wrong and asked in a misty way.

"Why do you ask this, big brother?"

"When the clinic first opened, I told you I would give you a key, but you refused to accept it. Have you changed your mind now, brother?"

Ning Fengzhe gave a brief reply and quickly returned to the business.

"No change."

"That means all the doctors and pharmacists in Huichun Hall can open the storehouse?"

Ning Yunxi told the truth.

"Newly hired people cannot be employed for the time being; but confidants can be employed by all of them."

Ning Fengzhe sighed deeply.

"Ah, why do you have to do this?"

Ning Yunxi didn't understand.

"What's the problem?"

There was no other way, Ning Fengzhe could only reveal a little of his inner feelings and give stern instructions.

"Tell Qiubi to go to Huichun Hall immediately and tell them that no matter who asks about the treasury's balance, they should answer that they have suffered losses recently and there is no money left in the treasury."

Ning Yunxi was filled with suspicion.

"Why is this?"

Ning Fengzhe gave a serious warning.

"Just do it, don't ask."

Suddenly, Ning Yunxi was filled with suspicion.

"Brother's words and actions are suspicious. Obviously, there is something wrong with me."

"Could it be that something unexpected happened at home?"

She thought about it for a moment and immediately had the answer.

"My father is in business and is in trouble, is that right or wrong?"

Ning Fengzhe held his forehead helplessly.

"No."

Ning Yunxi said with absolute certainty.

"Definitely is."

Ning Fengzhe was at a loss and had to pull hard.

"If I say it's not, then it's not."

"I'm here to tell Qiu Bi that you should leave the house with me."

Ning Yunxi struggled to break free from his hands, took a few steps back, and kept a safe distance.

"My family is in trouble, how can I escape?"

Ning Fengzhe was extremely anxious.

"Where is the end of filling his gaps? We've lost a lot this time, don't be stupid."

Ning Yunxi refused to repent.

"Big brother, do you want to frame me for being unfilial and unrighteous?"

Ning Fengzhe suddenly had an idea.

"By the way, you always wonder if you are your parents' biological child. Now I'm telling you, you are not their biological child. You were adopted."

"You leaving them has nothing to do with being unfilial or unrighteous."

Ning Yunxi retreated repeatedly, holding up a sword and not allowing his brother to get close.

"Even if they are not blood relatives, they are still our adoptive parents. We should be equally filial to them for their kindness in raising us. My brother knows etiquette and morality very well, so why did he do such a rude thing?"

"Besides, now that you say he's not your biological child, how can I believe you?"

Ning Fengzhe was so sad that he wanted to cry but had no tears. He stood still and tried his best to persuade her.

"Can you afford the Ning Mansion house?"

"The house has been sold, and they come to ask for money from time to time."

Ning Yunxi ignored herself and only cared about her parents' feelings.

"If you can't come up with the money, you will have to move out of Ning's house. How can your father and mother save their dignity?"

She put down her sword and walked to the bookcase.

"I've checked my account book and found that I can afford it."

Ning Fengzhe wandered on the ground, furious.

"You are so anxious. What good will it do you to maintain their dignity?"

Ning Yunxi took out the account book, sat at the desk, and talked about his worries while grinding ink.

"Big brother, my kinship is not about benefits or disadvantages."

"Whether they cherish me or not, I just want to live a life with a clear conscience."

To Ning Fengzhe, all this sounded like fallacy. He hesitated and was overwhelmed, trying to figure out how to respond.

"Don't be angry, I'm not angry at all..."

While settling the accounts, Mu Rong put on a flattering look and walked towards me.

"Xi'er, my good daughter..."

The slanting wind and drizzle make the Xiangzhu Garden desolate.

Ning Yunxi spent all her savings to buy back the Ning Mansion, but she didn't have a full meal for several days.

On this day, Mu Rong, under the name of Guan Xin, secretly inquired about the matter and sat with Ning Yunxi in the front hall of Xiangzhu Garden.

Mu Rong pretended to be calm and sighed with regret.

"Ugh."

"Xi'er, you don't know that in the past few days, the master and I haven't eaten a grain of rice or drunk a drop of water."

"If it weren't for this predicament, I would never have the heart to let my beloved daughter starve."

Ning Yunxi smiled obediently.

"My child understands that our family is in trouble, so please don't blame yourself, mother."

Mu Rong smiled back.

"Okay, you are sensible, I am very relieved."

"This time, thanks to you, I was able to escape."

"Mother, I thank you from the bottom of my heart."

Ning Yunxi was immersed in happiness and couldn't extricate herself.

"You and I, mother and daughter, don't need to thank me."

"Don't worry, mother. I will help support the family when I earn money."

"However, Xiangzhuyuan's account processing is not that fast. It will take at most half a month."

Mu Rong deliberately made herself look haggard, revealing her loneliness and sadness.

"Don't worry, Xi'er, just wait for half a month, it's okay."

She changed the subject.

"But your father seems to be a little bit unable to hold on. The doctor in the palace said that if he continues to starve like this, his life may be in danger within half a month."

Hearing that it was a lie, Ning Yunxi did not expose it and asked the question in cooperation.

"In your opinion, mother, what should we do?"

Mu Rong looked frustrated and acted as if she had no choice.

"I secretly thought that this was not a solution."

"How about you find another way to make a living? I think it would be best if you can get paid on a daily basis."

"But, my dear daughter, it's really hard for me."

Ning Yunxi looked somewhat embarrassed.

"Huichuntang, what should we do?"

Mu Rong had already made plans in her mind.

"Most other clinics close in the evening, unlike Huichuntang, which is open day and night. I think you should change that."

"Xi'er doesn't know how to do business. She probably hasn't heard King Dijin's words that you can't disrupt the market. Your trip is an act of disrupting the market. You must not do it."

"You go find a night job, treat patients during the day, and process at night. Just hold on for half a month and get through this difficult time."

"Remember, you have to pay once a day. Every morning, you go back to pay your respects and hand in the wages."

After saying this, she returned to her motherly appearance, kind and warm, with a helpless look on her face, and continued her act.

"My parents are old, and your two brothers are not doing well. I beg you to share more of the burden."

Ning Yunxi responded vaguely.

"My child obeys."

Mu Rong was impatient.

"It just so happens that the rain has stopped outside. It is God's will that this opportunity should not be missed. You should set out immediately to find a way to make a living."
