Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

You are a servant, why do you care so much? Is this something you should worry about?

Ning Zhiwei rubbed the head of the little guy in his arms, his brows indifferent, without commenting.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

The wet nurse froze in place, her face turning pale and blue.

Ning Wenyin frowned and slammed the teacup on the table. "How dare you! When is it a servant's turn to speak in this kind of situation?"

"Sister-in-law, the master is talking and the servant interrupts. You don't know the difference between superiors and subordinates. You are a servant who climbs over the master's head and acts wildly. Is this the family education of your Duan family?"

She is the eldest daughter of the Ning family. Even though she is married, she is qualified to discipline her younger brothers and sisters.

She can say this.

Duan Xinyu's face flushed red, "Slap your face."

The nanny immediately slapped herself twice, "Pa pa." She slapped herself so hard that her old face quickly became red and swollen.

"I was confused and curious for a moment. I shouldn't have interrupted you without permission."

She knelt on the ground with a plop and kowtowed to Ning Zhiwei, "Please have mercy and forgive me this time. I know I was wrong."

Ning Zhiwei looked at her steadily, his expression cold and indifferent.

The whole place was unusually quiet, the air seemed to be stagnant, and there was a feeling of suffocation.

Duan Xinyu pursed her lips and tugged at Ning Qishao's sleeve, but Ning Qishao stood still and didn't react at all.

She watched the wet nurse kowtow desperately, until her forehead was bleeding, and she felt angry and annoyed.

She closed her eyes to hide her complicated thoughts.

When she opened her eyes again, they were clear. "Come here, drag the wet nurse down and give her five slaps as a warning to others. If she dares to do it again, she will not be forgiven."

The servants dragged the wet nurse away, and the sound of a board hitting flesh was heard.

one more time.

Duan Xinyu seemed not to hear and raised her teacup to Ning Zhiwei, "I'll offer you a cup of tea instead of wine, and apologize to you on behalf of my servants."

Ning Zhiwei played with the teacup and asked calmly, "Your family? The Duan family? Or the Ning family?"

Her oppressive feeling was so strong that it made people feel breathless.

Duan Xinyu's expression froze, "...Of course it's the Ning family. From the moment I married into the Ning family, I'll be a member of the Ning family in life and a ghost of the Ning family in death. I'll always put the Ning family first."

Ning Zhiwei looked at her deeply and said, "I hope you will always remember this sentence. The purpose of marriage between two families is to establish kinship, not to create enmity."

She knew that Duan Xinyu was the eldest daughter of the Duan family who was carefully nurtured. She was capable, resourceful, and shrewd, and most people were no match for her.

However, if he wanted to stir up trouble in the Ning family, he had to see if she agreed.

Duan Xinyu's face turned pale. This was a warning as well as a reprimand.

If she dares to act recklessly, Ning Zhiwei will take action against the Duan family.

"I will never forget it."

Ning Zhiwei then picked up the teacup and took a sip, and the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became cheerful.

Ning Liu said with a smile, "Fifth sister, can I come to the palace to play in a few days?"

Ning Zhiwei nodded and said, "Come on, bring the children to the palace to play."

When the children heard this, they were immediately delighted and smiled happily.

Ning Zhiwei pulled the little guy's hair in her arms and asked with a smile, "Xiaoer, do you want to live with your aunt?"

The scene fell silent.

The little guy opened his pair of black grape eyes, sparkling, "Yes."

Ning Yuanxi also came over, "I want to, too! Aunt, you can't just favor your younger brother."

"Aunt, take me with you too."

"I want to play with you too."

Ning Zhiwei smiled slightly, "But if you live with me in the palace, you won't be able to see other relatives."

Ning Xinzhe was stunned. "Can't I let my mother and a few aunts live there together?"

"No."

Ning Xinzhe thought about it seriously, "Anyway, my mother is not in the capital, I'll accompany my aunt first."

Ning Zhi smiled and touched his head.

Seeing this, Ning Qishao said softly, "Xiaowu, you are so busy, how can you take care of these children? Let us take care of them."

Ning Zhiwei waved her hand and said, "I plan to set up a school in the palace, hire the best teachers, and let the eldest sons and daughters of the royal family and officials above the fourth rank go to school."

"Education is the most important thing. I hope these children can become pillars of society in the future and help me to relieve my worries."

She didn't want the Ning family to have a playboy who would bring shame to their ancestors.

Ning Wenyin was the first to stand up and support, "This is a good idea. It allows children to study and play together, and also build deep friendships."

The most important thing is to cultivate the second generation's loyalty to the king from an early age.

The eldest son of a family is to inherit the family business, so his loyalty and ability are very important.

As for the eldest daughter, she is also the most important person to be trained in a family.

Another point is that if you grow up in the presence of a king and win his favor, you will have a bright future for life.

Who wouldn’t want to try their best to get into this school?

Duan Xinyu touched her belly, thoughtfully.

The butler came in and bowed, "You can have your meal now."

"Eat first."

Everyone was eating and drinking, and the atmosphere was harmonious and happy.

Ning Zhiwei left after dinner. The three Ning sisters did not leave immediately, but changed their minds and stayed for a while.

Ning Qishao is a man with a big heart and is not very good at taking care of children, and Duan Xinyu...

Everyone was worried about leaving the child to Duan Xinyu's care, so they just stayed there temporarily.

All five children live with Ning Wenyin, Ning Liu and Ning Si live together.

Duan Xinyu arranged everything personally with a smile, and after watching them settle down, she said goodbye and left.

On the way back, she didn't look very good.

"Master, don't be angry. These are all trivial matters. The most important thing is that you have to give birth to the child quickly. With a child, you can gain a foothold in this family."

Duan Xinyu knew this very well. The Ning sisters were polite to her, but not very sincere.

You can tell when something happens that things are different when you have children.

"Go and see Nanny."

The wet nurse was old, and after being beaten with five big sticks, she looked like she had lost half her life, and her face was pale.

When she saw Duan Xinyu coming, she struggled to get up, but she screamed in pain every time she moved.

Duan Xinyu held her down and said, "Lie down, don't get up."

Tears rolled down the nursemaid's face. "Miss, I am sorry to have caused you trouble. I didn't expect Ning Zhiwei to be so disrespectful..."

Duan Xinyu glared, "Shh, don't call her by her name."

The nanny was very aggrieved. "I didn't ask about any important court affairs. Why did she do this? She slapped you in the face in public. It's clear that she doesn't consider you as a family member."

Duan Xinyu's face was as dark as water, and she gently scolded, "Don't talk nonsense."

The nanny sighed softly, "Miss, I'm old, it doesn't matter if I die immediately, but I'm worried about you. You are a noble young lady, but you married the injured Ning Qishao and suffered so much injustice, and they still oppress you..."

Duan Xinyu's face changed, "Alright, don't say these things anymore, take good care of your injuries and be a good person."

"Hey."

Just two days before the founding ceremony, the eunuchs from the palace came to Ning Mansion, holding several rolls of golden imperial edicts.

"The imperial edict has arrived."

The Ning family was shocked. It finally came.
