âBack then, you were left outside because of your fatherâs negligence. It wasnât easy to find you back, but you suffered in the generalâs residence. Those Ning family members who took you in are people your father should thank. Not to mention Erlang, itâs only right to take care of everyone in the Ning family.â
âBesides, Yueyue, Grandmother is about to return to the Generalâs Residence. Donât you plan to leave your cousin and second brother in the Generalâs Residence to accompany Grandmother?â An Ning said with a smile.
Hearing An Ningâs words, Ning Yue couldnât help but want to cry. âThank you, Grandmother, for doing so much for me.â
âI didnât do it for you. That old woman has done so many things to hurt me. Shouldnât I do something? Since I want revenge, returning to the Generalâs Residence is what I should do. Yueyue, Grandmother will look for you after a while, okay?â
Hearing An Ningâs words, Ning Yue nodded desperately. âOkay!â
âYueyue, be good. When you leave for Laifu Village, Iâll have to return to the Generalâs Residence too,â said An Ning.
âGrandmother, letâs send you back first before leaving for Laifu Village,â Ning Yue said.
An Ning rejected Ning Yueâs kindness. âNo, returning to the generalâs residence is my business alone. How can I implicate you? You have to take good care of the two babies. I donât want to find out that theyâve lost weight when I visit you later.â
âGrandmother, Iâ¦â Ning Yue was about to say something when she was interrupted by An Ning.
She looked at Jiang Ying and asked, âYoung Master Jiang, can I trouble you with something?â
âPlease speak,â Jiang Ying said.
âI want to trouble Prince Jiang to help me take care of Ning Yue. Itâs been hard on her. I also want to find a man who likes her, takes care of her, and shelters her,â An Ning said.
Through their interactions over the past few days, she could tell that Jiang Yue probably liked Ning Yue. He also had the strength and capital.
Hearing An Ningâs words, Jiang Ying was overjoyed. He happily promised her, âGrandmother, donât worry. Iâll definitely do my best to take good care of Yueyue.â
After receiving Jiang Yingâs assurance, a relieved smile appeared on An Ningâs face.
âGrandmother, Iâll take care of myself. I donât need any men.â Ning Yue blushed when she heard that her grandmother had sold her off without warning.
âAlright, thereâs nothing else. You two take your time chatting. Iâll go out and prepare first.â An Ning smiled and left the living room.
After what An Ning had said, Ning Yue was no longer in the mood to chat.
It wasnât that she wasnât in the mood. She just felt embarrassed.
She and Jiang Ying shouldnât have reached that stage yet, right?
Just as she was about to tell Jiang Ying that she was leaving, he grabbed her hand.
âLet me follow you. I want to be by your side, your knife and sword. Iâll cut whoever you want me to. Iâll stab whoever you want me to stab.â
Jiang Yingâs words touched Ning Yue.
He knew in his heart that Ning Yue was not a woman who was willing to hide behind a man. She was more willing to use her own hands to start a good future.
Hearing Jiang Yingâs words, Ning Yue couldnât help but laugh.
âYou know the assessment, right? Just like how everyone has to pass the village examination before they can become the top scholar, youâre still in the assessment stage. If I think youâre suitable after the assessment, you can stay,â Ning Yue said.
âNo matter what dangers and difficulties there are ahead, Iâm willing to accept your assessment. Moreover, Iâll definitely complete the assessment. Only I can stand by your side.â
Hearing Jiang Yingâs words, Ning Yueâs face turned even redder. It was as if Jiang Ying was by her side no matter what happened. Moreover, even when she did bad things, Jiang Ying was with her.
From the preliminary look of it, Jiang Ying was still considered passable, butâ¦
Who knew? They could worry about that later. Right now, the most important thing was to pack their bags. They were ready to return to Laifu village.
This was because if the Prince of Qi and Prince Ning rebelled, they would definitely pass through Prince Jinâs territory. She was worried about the people from the Ning Family Village.
Jiang Ying couldnât stay in the capital forever. If there was really a war, he had to rush to the front lines.
At the thought of this, Ning Yue simply went to look for Gu Yu and asked about the emperor.
When he heard that the emperor had recovered and there was no need for them to stay, they immediately decided to return to Laifu Village the next day.
âAlright, I was about to tell you about this too. I heard something bad from the emperor, so we have to rush back.â Gu Yu said.
