It seems that you are going to flee from famine, don't be anxious or panic

After Huo Yan finished his meal and put down his bowl and chopsticks, he took out two pieces of silver from his pocket, exactly two taels of silver, and placed them on the table. Then he said to Ning Yan, "Pay for the meal."

After that, he stood up, bowed to the Ning couple, thanked them, and left.

None of the Ning family members asked to keep him.

After Ning Yu noticed the courtyard door was closed, he turned to look at Ning Yan and asked angrily, "Brother, why did you invite him to your house for dinner and even serve him soup with your own hands?"

He knew his brother very well. His brother had a good sense of propriety when interacting with outsiders, except with family members. He had never invited any other man to his home for dinner, and he would never serve soup to other men casually.

Upon hearing this, the Ning couple turned to look at Ning Jian, wanting to know why Jian was acting so abnormally today.

"I like him." Ning Yan said calmly and frankly.

Ning Yu opened her eyes wide when she heard this, with a look of disbelief on her face, and stammered, "You, you like him?"

After saying that, as if he remembered something, he immediately wrinkled his face and said unhappily, "I don't agree with this."

"I don't agree either." Bai Lifen also said.

Ning Chengyong looked at his wife, then at his brother, and finally, after Bai Lifen secretly patted his leg, he said with a lack of confidence, "I don't agree either."

Ning Yan looked at the expressions of his family members and decided to approach them one by one. Then he asked Ning Yu first, "Tell me why you don't agree?"

"He is ugly, he is far away, and there are still grudges in my family. I can't let you go with him." Ning Yu said righteously.

"He's not ugly, just a little thin. If he takes care of himself, he'll definitely look good. As for his family affairs, he was bullied, but it's not his fault. You can't blame him for this, right?" Ning Yan explained clearly.

After hearing this, Ning Yu couldn't find any reason to refute it for a moment, so he could only say stiffly: "Then, then I don't agree either."

Then he looked at Bai Lifen and said, "Mom, please persuade me. I think that man is too unreliable."

Seeing this, Ning Yan asked, "Mom, why don't you agree?"

"He is so sick that we don't know how long he can live, and we don't know if the disease can be cured. Mother doesn't want to see you become a widow just a few years after getting married." Bai Lifen said with some disapproval.

Ning Yan heard this and said, "Mom, you forgot, I can treat people. I think no matter what disease they have, there is always a way to cure it. Even if it can't be cured, I can still extend their lifespan, right?"

Bai Lifen was stunned when she heard this. She had forgotten that her brother could treat patients.

Normally he kept a low profile. Apart from treating the evil people in his family, the villagers only knew that he knew some herbs. Few people knew that he was also a very skilled doctor. She had forgotten about this for a while.

Then she was at a loss for words, so she turned to look at Ning Chengyong and said, "His father, please try to persuade your brother."

When Ning Chengyong heard this, his honest face was filled with embarrassment. The reasons had already been given by his wife and the boy at home, and he didn't know what reason to use to persuade his brother.

Ning Yan sat there calmly, waiting to see what other excuses his father could come up with.

After pondering for a while, Ning Chengyong, under Bai Lifen's urging, blushed and said a little embarrassedly: "He is so thin and so seriously ill. Is that okay?"
