As the Autumn Trial drew closer, Ning Qianci rushed home from the Academy. Two dayster, he rushed to the city with his schoolmates. If it was any other prefecture''s county, they would have to head to the prefecture to participate in the Autumn Trial. However, Tongxian County were directly under the jurisdiction of the capital.


    After Ning Qianci left for the capital this time, the things that were prepared by the Lao Ning Family were not tooplete.


    After returning home, Ning Yan took out an empty bundle, ced a money pouch and two sets of clothes inside, and wrapped up the bundle and ced it inside a box. Ning Yan nned to go to the county city another day to buy some embroidered clothes.


    In a foreignnd, if a person did not have enough silver on him, he would definitely be unable to make ends meet. Ning Yan even stuffed a money bag into his bag, this was all given to him by some ''officials'', so it would not hurt to use it.


    To Ning Yan, going to the capital was not just a single exam. Other than that, he also needed to make some intelligent and unassuming friends, and these friends were all future connections.


    After packing, Ning Yan walked towards the kitchen.


    Taking off the sausage from the strip in front of kitchen gate, she pulled out a few garlic seedlings and stir-fried the sausage slices together with the garlic seedlings. Then, she poured the sausage onto a te and washed the pot clean.


    The pig bones were minced and the mushroom soup was stewed on top. As the dishes came out of the wok, the sound of dogs barking could be heard from the yard.


    He thought that Ning Qianci had gotten over from the Lao Ning Family, that Ning Yan had walked out happily, and upon seeing Lame Yang in the courtyard shrinking his head and tail, the smile on his face instantly disappeared, and he thought that Ning Qianci had messed up his expression for nothing.


    "Where''s the marriage contract?"


    "Here." Just as Lame Yang took a step closer to Ning Yan, the ck Tibetan Mastiff opened its mouth wide, its sharp teeth glittering under the setting sun.


    Lame Yang froze as he looked at Ning Yan, asking for help.


    Ning Yan caressed the dog''s head, and pulled the chain on the dog''s neck.


    Only then did Lame Yang dare to get close to Ning Yan and give the contract in his hands to Ning Yan.


    "Great Lady Ning Family?" Seeing that the marriage certificate did not have a name written directly on it, Ning Yan''s eyes lit up, it was exactly as she had thought … In this way, as long as one was the daughter of Ning Family, they could call her the Great Woman of Ning Family.


    Tch, I hope Lao Ning Family can be a bit more obedient. Otherwise... To let Elder Mrs. Lee have an extra crippled son-inw, Ning Wan''er had already glued herself to Deputy Governor Bai, sticking together all day. If she wasn''t able to marry Deputy Governor Bai in the end, it would instead be letting Lame Yang off easy. Just the thought of it was quite interesting.


    "I''ve left the marriage contract, where did youe from and go back to where?"


    "Can I go back now?" Lame Yang''s face was filled with surprise. He thought that since he hade this time, he wouldn''t be able to go back with his tail between his legs.


    "Don''t want to go back?"


    "No, no, I''ll go back now." He turned around and left quickly. From the speed he was running at, Ben could not tell that Lame Yang was a cripple.


    Ning Yan closed the door and walked back to the kitchen.


    "You have an engagement with that cripple?"


    "What, you want to steal the marriage?" Ning Yan turned her head and faced Lu Hanzhang.


    "…" Lu Hanzhang did not speak, and gave Ning Yan a caring and retarded look. Ning Yan used all her strength to suppress her itching fists.


    "Is dinner not ready yet? "I''m hungry."


    "Is the fan and the juicer not ready yet?"


    "Soon." When Lu Hanzhang thought about the letter that came from the Beijing Public Works Department, a smile finally appeared on his face, "In two days, you will see the finished product."


    "The fan seeded?" Ning Yan''s eyes lit up, the summer without a fan was really hard to bear, even if she was waving it in her hands, she would admit it. Worsees to worse, she would just fall for it and buy a few servants or servant girl s from the Dental Hall. As for the juicer, she could make some juice without a juicer, but it would be a waste if she made some at home.


    Being stared at by Ning Yan''s bright eyes, Lu Hanzhang felt an itch in his heart, and his gazended on Ning Yan''s head.


    In the midst of her pleasant surprise, Ning Yan did not notice Lu Hanzhang''s smiling actions. Instead, when Ning Qianci walked in from the outside, she saw Lu Hanzhang''s actions.


    Ning Qianci did not really like Lu Hanzhang. Thest time he came back, he did not stay at home for a few days. He had only heard that there was a man staying at elder sister''s house, but he did not see him.


    Seeing it this time, looking at Lu Hanzhang''s beard, the discontent in his heart became even stronger.


    "Sis, I''m here."


    Huh?" Pushing Lu Hanzhang''s hand away, Ning Yan walked out. Looking at Ning Qianci who had grown a lot, Ning Yan was even more satisfied, wearing a green robe with a long jade ribbon, if she added a fan on top of it, it wouldn''t be enough to captivate the girl''s heart.


    No wonder all the women in this era liked pretty boys, even she couldn''t help but want to fight Ning Qianci the moment she saw him, if it wasn''t for the Bone Doctor making an appointment with his …


    Suppressing the weird thoughts in her head, Ning Yan led Ning Qianci to the living room and poured a cup of water. "We''re going to the capital, are you nervous?"


    "It would be a lie to say that I''m not nervous, but I can''t solve the problem just because I''m nervous. If I have time to be nervous, I might as well read a few books."


    Hearing Ning Qianci''s words, Ning Yan waspletely at ease. Didn''t the future generations of bookworm say these kinds of words meant that it was stable?


    "Have you eaten? You should eat here!" Ning Yan said, without waiting for Ning Qianci to reply, she walked towards the kitchen and brought out the prepared food.


    They were all regr dishes, but the seasonings used were different from those used in other restaurants, so the taste was also different.


    When Ning Qianci came out of Lao Ning Family, he did not eat, but saw that he would rather quickly bring out the food and smell the fragrance of the dishes, than to leave at this time.


    After the dishes were set, Lu Hanzhang sat down and did not treat himself as an outsider.


    Perhaps it was due to the addition of Ning Qianci, but a schr was more concerned with eating without speaking a word, so theypletely quietened down during the meal …


    Luckily the food was tasty, otherwise, the meal would be ufortable. After dinner, Lu Hanzhang consciously left the hall.


    There were only three people in the living room with the surname Ning, and the atmosphere was slightly more harmonious.


    Ning Yan said: "Before I went to the capital, I came here to prepare some things for you."


    "Alright, I will."


    "What else would it be if I didn''t ask?"


    "Big Sis must have prepared it carefully."


    "Mm, go and check if there''s any improvement."


    "Alright." Ning Qianci nodded, and pulled his hand that was more than enough for him to walk towards the study room.


    It had only been a month since she came here, but Big Sis had already lived in a big house with books piled all over the study room. Ning Qianci admired Ning Yan, so other women would definitely not be able to achieve such a feat with their current experiences.


    Seeing that she was young and tender, and waspletely different from before, Ning Qianci''s mood became even happier.


    He picked up the words that Ning Xuemo had written, surprise shing across his eyes. "This is not written ording to Uncle''s words, is it?"


    "Yes." She took out the word invitation that Lu Hanzhang wrote and ced it on the table.


    "Face, it''s quite suitable for people who have just started writing. It''s Uncle''s fault for not having thought it through properly."


    "Uncle''s handwriting is also beautiful."


    "Of course. Come, tell uncle what happened to the man who lived at home?"


    "Lu Da? Mother has taken a fancy to him, so she left him at home. " After saying that, Ning Yu let out a sigh. "I even saw mother take someone''s pants offst time."


    "…" Is this it?
