However, he only sat in Ning's house for a short while, said a few words, put down his things, and got up to leave.

What a crappy place! He'd suffocate if he stayed there for another second.

Since He Wenzhi wanted to leave, the Ning family naturally did not dare to stop him, and Ning Dafu naturally stood up and followed him.

The county magistrate's wife said that he must stay by He Wenzhi's side at all times until he fully recovers.

Seeing that the man was about to leave, Zhang quickly grabbed Ning Dafu and asked about his situation.

When she learned that her son was not treated as a male wife but was living in the county magistrate's home as an adopted son, her face immediately lit up with joy.

Ning Zhen's plan failed and she also helped her son improve his status invisibly, which was really gratifying.

Then she told Ning Dafu in a few words that he must find a chance to deal with Ning Yan, and it would be best if he were disgraced and could no longer stay in Luofeng Village.

After hearing this, Ning Dafu couldn't help but touch his chin, his greedy eyes full of calculation.

His uncle was a child bought by his grandparents, and he had no actual family relationship with Ning Jian. But that little boy was good-looking, so maybe he could take him for himself.

Thinking of this, he promised: "Don't worry, mother, I will find a way to teach him a lesson."

"He recently found a man from another place and they are getting married in a few days. The man is quite rich. His family used to be in business. It is said that he has several thousand taels of silver.

You'd better teach him a lesson in the next few days so that he can't get married. Then our family can snatch that man away and let your sister pretend to marry him. Then the money he has will belong to our family."

Zhang said with a calculating look on her face.

"A few thousand taels of silver?" Ning Dafu asked with wide eyes, a little disbelieving, "Is this true?"

"There's no doubt about it. That person gave the Ning family one tael of silver to buy a bowl of pork. He was very generous." Zhang said confidently.

If you don't have some worth, who would dare to spend money like this?

Ning Dafu immediately said, "Mom, please wait for my news. I will definitely get this done before he gets married."

He was indeed envious of the several thousand taels of silver. Although he was adopted as an adopted son and lived and drank at the county magistrate's house, he was only given one tael of silver as pocket money a month.

The cost of living in the county town is much higher than in the countryside. One tael of silver is not enough to go out for a meal.

If he could get the man's several thousand taels of silver, then why would he have to worry about money?

However, he needs to go back and think about this matter carefully. He has just entered the county magistrate's house and has no say at all. It is not easy to find someone to do things for him.

Once he returns and plans carefully, he will definitely be able to get Ning Yan.

After that, he said, "Mom, please give me some money. There are many places in the county where money is needed. I can't let others look down on me."

After hearing this, Zhang looked embarrassed. All the money in the family had to be handed over, and she only saved a little private money. If she gave it to Ning Dafu, she would have no money left.

Then an idea struck her, and she said, "The betrothal money was kept by your grandma. Go ask her for it. She has the money."

Upon hearing this, Ning Dafu went to find Old Lady Ning again and coaxed two silver ingots from her, and then followed He Wenzhi.

After seeing off the He family's carriage, Old Lady He stood at the door of her house, hands on her hips, and said to the onlookers with a smug look on her face:

"My Dafu has been adopted as the son of the County Magistrate. His status is different from yours. Remember to be polite to my family in the future. Otherwise, be careful. I will tell my Dafu and let the County Magistrate punish you for disrespect."
