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

When Ning Lu saw Ning Jian come in, his expression softened and he called him "Brother".

When Huo Yun and Ning Jing saw Ning Yan coming, they got down from Bai Lifen and Ning Lu's arms and ran towards Ning Yan, shouting, "Dad."

In addition to the chairs on the dining table, their living room also has four chairs with backrests on each side.

Ning Zheng did not walk towards the dining table. Instead, he took the two children to the armchair next to Ning Ruo, and then held the two children on his lap, one on each side.

There were four people sitting at the dining table: Bai Lifen, Ning Chengyong, and the one from the Ning family, Ning Chengyong's former sister Ning Xiaocui, and his husband Wang Dali.

Ning Xiaocui married and moved to another village a few years ago, a few kilometers away from Luofeng Village, which is closer to the county town.

Old Mrs. Ning was very good to her children, and the family she found for Ning Xiaocui was also a good one. There were three brothers in the family, and Wang Dali was the eldest.

Some years ago, the young master of the former county magistrate of Zhannan County wanted a living adult king snake to keep as a pet.

So he privately issued a reward, offering 100 taels of silver to whoever could catch the snake king first.

The king snake is the king cobra, which is venomous and very poisonous. An adult king snake can reach 3 or 4 meters in length.

Catching poisonous snakes is a very risky thing, especially if they are highly venomous. If you are not careful, you may lose your life.

However, people die for money and birds die for food.

When many people heard that they could get 100 taels of silver, they were finally tempted, and many of them went into the mountains to catch one.

The Wang brothers are one of them.

However, a few people were lucky. After going into the mountains, they came out the next day with a snake king that was more than 3 meters long in their hands.

In this way, the brothers got the money and started buying land in the village.

In Donglin State, the price of one mu of high-quality land was 5 taels of silver, and the price of one mu of low-quality land was 3 taels of silver. He spent more than 80 taels of silver to buy almost 20 mu of land.

Together with their original 10 acres of land, the total was 30 acres. Their family became the family with the most land in the village, and later they lived the best life.

Later, he used the money he earned from farming to buy a grocery store in the county town, specializing in collecting mountain products and selling them to passing merchants or restaurants in the city.

When Ning Xiaocui got married, it was the first bumper year after they bought the land. The crops grew well and the yield was high that year.

The family had a total of 30 acres of land. After deducting taxes and the money left for family food and clothing, they earned nearly 100 taels of silver in a year.

Because they made money that year, the Wang family spent dozens of taels of silver to build a brick house in the village.

Then Wang Dali's mother began to prepare for the eldest and second sons to get married. The third son was still two years away from getting married.

So after Ning Xiaocui got married, she basically lived a life of luxury. She didn't have to worry about farm work, and her husband's family had hired workers to do the work.

She wears gold and silver every day and can occasionally give money to her parents' home.

The year Ning Xiaocui got married, Ning Gang was born.

Influenced by Grandma Ning and Grandpa Ning, the brothers and sisters of the Ning family are not close to or respectful towards Ning Chengyong, and they are even less respectful towards Bai Lifen.

When Ning Jian was still in swaddling clothes, Ning Xiaocui would always bring something for each family member when she came back, except for Ning Jian's family.

Even if they were given some things, they were the ones they had picked out and didn't want. He even said to Ning Chengyong and Bai Lifen in a tone of charity:

"Anyway, it's something I don't want, so you can use it. You guys haven't seen the world, and you can't afford to buy the things I don't want in your lifetime."
