On the carriage taking Shen Ningning home.

Mo Lingwei asked Grandma Qin: "How did your family get to know Yuanwai Du?"

Grandma Qin sighed: "It's not my ex-daughter-in-law who was punished by heaven, Wang Guihong! Du Yuanwai is her brother-in-law. He has taken good care of her since he married into our family."

When Wang Guihong was mentioned, Grandma Qin became endlessly angry.

"She met Qin Sheng through someone's introduction. The two of them had been together for less than a month, and she wanted to marry into my family."

"The Wang family is from Yu'an County. They have some wealth and are not poor. Besides, her sister is married to a rich member of the Communist Party of China. I always feel that she will not like Qin Sheng."

"But I didn't expect that she would want to get married so soon. The Wang family proposed a dowry gift of thirty taels, but I really can't afford it. Besides, she seems to have many ideas and doesn't seem to be easy to get along with, so I am not ready to agree to this marriage. Marriage, I didn’t expect..."

Grandma Qin sighed repeatedly.

Wang Guihong and Qin Sheng got pregnant in the second month.

Qin Sheng pulled her to kneel in front of him, and then Grandma Qin realized that they had cooked rice in order to get married!

"Since she was pregnant, I couldn't object to this marriage anymore, so I sold the family's cows and pigs to collect thirty taels of betrothal gift, and Wang Guihong got married."

Needless to say what happened next, Wang Guihong's true colors were revealed within two years of her marriage.

Not only did she dislike Qin Sheng for accomplishing nothing, but she also always beat and scolded him. Whenever Grandma Qin tried to persuade her, Wang Guihong would angrily go back to her parents' home for less than half a month.

Over time, Grandma Qin did not want to affect the relationship between the couple, so she became more tolerant to Wang Guihong.

But with Wang Guihong's personality, how could she not quarrel with Grandma Qin?

Once, the quarrel was so severe that Wang Guihong pointed at Grandma Qin's nose and scolded Qin Sheng's father for having died long ago. Grandma Qin immediately asked Qin Sheng to write a letter of divorce.

Unexpectedly, Qin Sheng not only hesitated, but also used illiteracy as an excuse. At this time, Wang Guihong suddenly fainted. The doctor came to diagnose, and Grandma Qin found out that she was pregnant again.

It was a happy event, and for the sake of her children, Grandma Qin revealed the matter again and ignored it.

When she was talking about these past events, Shen Ningning was sitting next to her, with big black eyes on her round pink face.

Two small hands held the sweet cakes on Mo Lingwei's carriage. His mouth was full of residue after eating, but he listened attentively.

Mo Lingwei had long noticed her eating pastries.

How come the cool cake that he usually finds too sweet seems to taste so delicious in her mouth, one piece after another?

Until he couldn't help it, he stretched out his thumb, wiped a little bit of the residue from Shen Ningning's lips and put it into his mouth to taste.

It's not as sweet as it tasted before.

Mo Lingwei took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of Shen Ningning's lips, then slowly wiped his fingertips.

Grandma Qin just said angrily: "She has become even more terrible after giving birth to Fangmei. If she is wronged at all in the Qin family, she will definitely complain to Yuan Wai."

"Every time Du Yuanwai comes here, he just supports her indiscriminately. We can't afford to offend her, so naturally we have to endure it."

Speaking of this, Grandma Qin regretted it endlessly.

If she hadn't brought in the disaster-like Wang Guihong, how could her Ning Ning have suffered so much?

Mo Lingwei raised his eyebrows and expressed his doubts: "Wang Guihong is just his sister-in-law. No matter how carefully she takes care of her, she shouldn't interfere in her family affairs so frequently."

Grandma Qin recalled: "Perhaps Wang Guihong's sister is worried about her. I heard that her sister Wang Cuizhi is not in good health and has been taking medicine to support her these years."

"If she is worried about Wang Guihong, her husband Du Yuanwai will definitely help share the burden. There is nothing to be picky about."

Shen Ningning licked the icing sugar on her lips.

The little guy Nuo Nuo said: "Yu Yuanwai cares very much about Auntie. Every time he comes, Auntie asks me to go out and doesn't allow me to stay in the house."

After saying that, the little man pouted pitifully.

Every time she was kicked out of the house and had no place to go, she would go to the mountains to find a shady place to sleep.

Grandma Qin was shocked when she heard this: "Is this so?"

She didn't know this because every time Mr. Du came out, it was during the day, and she and her son Qin Sheng happened to have to work in the fields.

Later, the drought came. Whenever she had time, she would take Qin Sheng to the next village to help kill chickens and pigs to earn some money to support her family.

However, Wang Guihong often refused to allow her to eat. Over time, her health deteriorated and Grandma Qin never went out again.

At that time, she thought it was at least a good thing that Mr. Du came from outside. After all, he would leave a bag of food behind every time he left, so she didn't object or become suspicious.

This time when she heard what Shen Ningning said, Grandma Qin felt something was wrong and frowned.

The carriage drove to the foot of Langshan Mountain. Grandma Qin was a little distracted when she was helped out of the carriage.

Shen Ningning called the Black Wolf King and helped her grandma go up the mountain first.

She turned to Mo Lingwei and said, "Brother, do you want to go and sit at my house? You can have a cup of fruit tea before leaving!"

But Mo Lingwei said: "There is no need for today. I will definitely come in two days."

He had to rush back to the palace to arrange matters and ensure that the consequences of this matter went as Shen Ningning hoped.

After hearing this, Shen Ningning pursed her lips regretfully.

"When is it two days from now?"

Mo Lingwei raised his eyebrows: "The day after tomorrow?"

The little guy grabbed his sleeve and said coquettishly: "My fruit tea may be spoiled the day after tomorrow. If I want to make it again, it will take another two days to marinate it for you to drink."

Seeing her like this, Mo Lingwei suddenly smiled.

The black light in his thin eyes seemed to be shining with joy: "Just tell me, what exactly do you want to do?"

"Wow, brother is so smart, you can see it right away!" Shen Ningning's face was full of sweet smile.

"After Du Yuanwai died, he left ashes in front of brother Zuchang's grave to express his condolences. On a specific date, can I go and see him?"

She knew that this was a government execution. Since her brother gave the order, someone should be responsible.

Mo Ling was stunned: "Aren't you afraid?"

"The bad guys get the punishment they deserve. I should be happy for Brother Zuchang, and I won't be afraid!" the little guy said.

After a moment, Mo Lingwei nodded: "Then let's make it tomorrow. I'll come find you and go with you."

The two agreed, and Shen Ningning jumped away happily.

Mo Lingwei narrowed his eyes: "Why didn't you tell me about letting me drink fruit tea?"

He shook his head with a smile, turned around and got into the carriage to return to the palace.

The second day.

Mo Lingwei came to pick up Shen Ningning and also brought good news.

Wearing a light purple robe with narrow sleeves, he was waiting at the foot of Langshan Mountain with his hands behind his hands. When Shen Ningning went there, he saw Mo Lingwei slightly raising his eyebrows, looking very happy and contented.

"Brother!" She held up her skirt and trotted down the mountain.

The Black Wolf King saw Mo Lingwei behind her and rolled his eyes mercilessly.

It's that kid again.

Mo Ling smiled dangerously: "Shen Ningning, do you still have my fruit tea today?"

"Yes, yes! I brought it." She pointed to the small water bag tied around her waist.

She made this by herself. She pressed the sweet orange flesh into juice, put it on ice cubes, and poured a little molasses on it. It was absolutely refreshing and sweet.

Mo Lingwei stretched out his hand hidden behind his back, and Shen Ningning saw him holding a bright yellow book.

"This is……"

"It's an imperial edict." He handed it over: "Open it and see for yourself. I asked for a reward for you."
