Ning Ying was too lazy to waste time talking to him, and looked directly at Tang Jianguo: "Uncle Tang, he doesn't want to pay."

Tang Jianguo slammed the table and said, "Ning Jiannan, if you don't want to do this, just pack up and leave!"

Ning Jiannan gnashed his teeth in hatred towards Ning Ying but had to respond: "Director Tang, I really don't have that much money. Let me think of another way."

"Then I'll give you another week. If you can't come up with 5,000 yuan, get out immediately!"

Ning Jiannan suddenly felt like crying but had no tears. The family had no savings left, and Ning Na hadn't sent any money for several months for some unknown reason.

Gou Rili's condition has not been cured for a long time and he has to spend his salary on it. Recently, even basic living has become a problem.

Gao Dalong was lying in the hospital pretending to be a cat turning into a dog.

After Gao Xiaofeng was dismissed from the hospital, no unit dared to accept her. This girl was spoiled, she was not good at anything and she ate everything without leaving any residue.

Zhou Weihong, the only healthy person in the family, has to take care of the two sick people and cannot get away.

He still has to send money to the old couple in the countryside every month. Seven or eight mouths depend on his salary, but he was demoted and had his salary cut.

Ning Jiannan left with a sad face.

Seeing that Ning Ying was about to leave, Tang Jianguo quickly asked his son to see her off.

As soon as the two of them left the house, Liu Jing frowned and said, "Old Tang, what are you doing?"

"What's the matter?"

"It's fine if they have such a rotten family, but they're second-hand goods, and they can't even touch the soles of Hanlin's feet. How dare you still want to bring them together?"

"What nonsense! Xiaoying has never mentioned her man, and she has always lived with her sister. It seems that the two of them must have broken up. Otherwise, how could our Hanlin have such a good thing?"

"What kind of magic potion did this girl give you?"

"Xiao Jing, I'm very good at judging people. Ning girl is definitely not an ordinary person, and Hanlin is a wooden person. If our family has a daughter-in-law like Ning girl to take the lead in the future, our family business will surely prosper and bring blessings to our descendants."

Liu Jing immediately sneered. How much trouble could a second-hand girl with a shabby background cause? There was no way she could become her daughter-in-law!

When Ning Ying was going home, she realized someone was following her, so she deliberately walked into a dead end. In the corner, there were a dozen iron barrels of different heights and sizes piled up.

These iron buckets were placed there specially by pig farmers in the countryside. Some of them contained slop, some contained food scraps, and some household garbage.

Ning Ying took out a broken leather ball and a piece of rag from the iron bucket, and then placed them between the two iron buckets. In the dark, it looked like a woman with long hair.

She hid in a corner when she heard footsteps approaching behind her.

The man came over with a wooden stick and smashed the "human head" in the middle of the iron barrel hard.

The ball flew out, and there was a loud bang between the wooden stick and the iron bucket.

He sensed something was wrong and when he stretched his head to look, he was suddenly thrown into the swill bucket by a strong force. Then an iron bucket was placed on top of it, and everything around him became pitch dark.

Ning Jiannan was pressed against the upside-down iron barrel and could only kneel down and choke on a few mouthfuls of slop in a head-down position.

Fortunately, there was only half a bucket of slop. He supported himself on the bottom of the bucket with both hands and raised his head to barely surface to breathe.

Every time I took a breath, I could smell the stench of slop, and I couldn't help but vomit.

Ning Jiannan kept kicking the bucket: "Ning Ying, I know you did it, let me out now!"

Ning Ying held the iron bucket tightly, with a sneer on her face: "Dad, you hit me with so much force just now. If it were me, my head would have exploded by now."

He simply wanted to kill her so that he could take away her dowry and make up for the 5,000 yuan he was hungry for. Then he could pretend that she was robbed by a thief.

"Xiaoying, Dad... Dad thought you were being targeted, so he just wanted to protect you. Why would he think so much?"

He wanted to pretend, but she didn't have the patience to play along with him.

"Dad, your hypocrisy makes me feel more disgusted than swill. It's better to speak frankly."

Seeing that his attempt to persuade him failed, Ning Jiannan had no choice but to say, "Xiaoying, I...I admit that I was possessed by a ghost just now. Quickly let Dad out, ugh..."

Ning Ying put an iron bucket on top and pounded it hard with her fists. After three years of carrying the pig, she had developed a lot of strength.

Actually, this was all thanks to Ning Jiannan, so he deserved it.

"Dad, I heard that the more difficult the environment, the more it can stimulate people's potential. You stay in the swill bucket tonight and think about how to collect the 5,000 yuan as soon as possible."

"Even if I sold myself, I couldn't come up with 5,000 yuan!"

Ning Ying patted the iron bucket and said, "Then I'll show you a way. You are not valuable, but you have valuable things at home. Think about it carefully."

When he sold the two sisters, he was very clear about it. Gou Rili and Gao Xiaofeng followed Ning Jiannan and sucked the blood of the two sisters for so many years, so it's time for them to do their part.

In addition, she just wanted Ning Jiannan to have a taste of the feeling of being deserted by friends and family and being bullied by others.

Ning Ying left and there was no sound outside.

Ning Jiannan was filled with despair when he thought about having to support himself with his hands, lying upside down all night while smelling the slop.

He was so angry that he cursed, but unfortunately the iron barrel was too thick and blocked out the sound.

The summer clothes in the store have been almost cleared out, so Ning Na and Ning Ying discussed going south together to buy autumn clothes.

Ning Ying had other plans, "You go by yourself this time. I have to accompany Gu Jin to Shancheng."

Gu Jin is the owner of the pharmacy where Ning Ying sells medicinal herbs, and he is also the son of the owner of the antique shop, Gu.

Collecting medicinal materials is just a way to make some money. Before this, Ning Ying persuaded Gu Jin to borrow her cousin's pharmaceutical factory to make a batch of snake venom ointment.

However, there are very few snakes in northern Shandong, and this batch of snake venom cream has been piled on the shelf and gathering dust. Gu Jin has many complaints about her.

Ning Ying calculated that the time was almost up and decided to take him to Shaanxi City.

What's more, her sister will be taking charge of the clothing store in the future, so she has to give her a chance to gain some experience.

"Okay, you take care of yourself. I heard that there was a flood in Shaanxi City recently, and the troops were transferred there to prevent floods."

It was only when Ning Ying saw the newspaper that she remembered that the flood in Shaanxi City this year was not an ordinary flood, but a major flood that had not occurred in four hundred years. Nearly a thousand people lost their lives, and the local economy was directly set back by ten years.

What's even more terrifying is that the flood is followed by sudden disasters. Although natural disasters are unavoidable, if she rushes over now, she can at least save a thousand lives.

On the day Ning Ying got on the train, Ning Na went to see her off: "Xiao Ying, I got you some pork jerky and beef jerky, save them for the journey."

Ning Ying looked at the half bag of dried meat and felt worried: "Sister, I will be back in about a week, I can't eat so much."

"Shaanxi City is so close to Jingping, maybe Qin Zhao will lead a team there. He has taken care of us for so long, you can give him half of it when you see him, just consider it as repaying this favor."

Ning Ying also considered this problem, so she put the gift in her suitcase when she came.

"Yeah, I get it. You should be careful when you go south."

"Don't worry, I'm familiar with the route."

As the train started, Gu Jin said anxiously, "Sister Yingzi, do you think we can really sell out all the snake venom ointment during this trip to Shancheng?"

"Not only will they all be sold out, but if nothing goes wrong you can even make back your money."

"Sister Yingzi, please stop keeping me in suspense and tell me the truth."

Ning Ying closed her eyes and whispered a few words: "The secret cannot be revealed."

As soon as the two got off the train station, they encountered a heavy rainstorm and there was not even a rickshaw on the street.

The two men carried their heavy suitcases and walked towards the guesthouse in the wind and rain.

Dark clouds were approaching, and suddenly there was a gust of wind, which directly blew up the things on the ground. The two of them could not move. Ning Ying shouted sharply: "Immediately throw away the luggage and find that big tree to hold on to!"

There was cash in the suitcase, and Gu Jin was reluctant to leave it, so it fell behind Ning Ying.

The moment Ning Ying hugged the tree, a gust of wind swept past and blew Xiao Gu away. The dark night left only Ning Ying's anxious voice: "Xiao Gu!"

It's over. She was the one who brought him up. Boss Gu only had this one son. If he died, how would she explain to Boss Gu?

But she knew that if she let go at this moment she would be blown away, so she could only grit her teeth and hold on to this thousand-year-old tree tightly.

There was heavy rain, strong winds, a sharp drop in temperature, and hail in the sky.

Ning Ying felt as if her whole body was like ice. Her hands and feet gradually became numb and she lost consciousness all over her body.

Someone called her name while she was dazed.

"Ning Ying?"

The man brought a quilt, and seemed to see that she was very cold, so he got into the bed and held her in his arms to warm her, calling her name over and over again.

Ning Ying felt as if she had gone through four seasons, from the cold winter to the warm spring. She felt warm all around her, her ears and face were hot, and her body was covered with a layer of sweat.

She couldn't help but want to kick the quilt away, but she heard a muffled groan from above her head.

In a daze, she lifted the quilt and found that there was space beside her and it was not so hot anymore. She wrapped herself in the quilt and fell into a deep sleep again.

Seeing Qin Zhao coming out of the tent, Sheng Gang said with a smile: "Am I going to drink the baby's full moon wine soon?"

Qin Zhao kicked him and said, "Go wash the crap out of your brain!"

The conditions here were limited and there were not enough medical staff. At that time, he was only thinking about saving people.

"Tsk, don't you want to know why Sister Ying came here?"

"The front line still needs flood control. I'll go over first. Remember to leave my breakfast for her."

Qin Zhao put on his clothes and walked hurriedly towards the team. Sheng Gang couldn't help shaking his head.

When Ning Ying woke up, she looked around and realized that she was rescued by the soldiers.

At this moment, there was only one thought in her mind, which was to find Gu Jin.

She went from tent to tent asking questions without even having time to eat breakfast. When she learned that the wounded and the masses were in another tent, she rushed over immediately.

But there were hundreds of people inside, all of them covered in dust. Ning Ying shouted until her voice was hoarse but no one responded, so she had to look for them one by one.

When Qin Zhao was carrying the wounded back, he happened to see Ning Ying stealing someone.

Several medical staff couldn't help but sigh: "The little girl has been calling for a whole morning but still hasn't found her partner. How pitiful."

"She is so patient. I am moved by her genuine affection."
