Chapter 221: Finding a Marriage for Ning Qiu
While Jiang Yuwei was thinking of a solution, Captain Huang also saw her and waved at her:
"Manager Jiang, I heard that Moxiangzhai was on fire while I was patrolling the streets today, so I thought of coming over to take a look."
Seeing that he came for this matter, Jiang Yuwei immediately felt relieved and got off the ox cart with a smile.
"Thanks to Captain Huang for his concern. Fortunately, the neighboring shops were not affected. Only our shop suffered losses."
Captain Huang nodded and said:
"By the way, the people in your shop said you went to report to the police, but I didn't see you."
Jiang Yuwei heard this and waved her hands:
"Well, I was just so angry that I said that. Now I've figured it out. There have been fires in Ping'an Town every year. My shop is full of flammable things. Maybe I forgot to put out the fire when I was boiling water yesterday, so it started the fire. Who can I go to for justice?"
Jiang Yuwei smiled at Captain Huang again.
"You said, the officials in your yamen are all very busy now, how can I have the nerve to bother you with these trivial matters at home?"
After hearing this, Captain Huang nodded approvingly and said:
"Okay, as long as you can let it go, as long as the people are fine, the shop can be reopened. Things have already happened, Shopkeeper Jiang, don't be too sad. Since everything is fine here, we will leave first."
Jiang Yuwei nodded in agreement after hearing this:
"Okay, thank you, Captain Huang. I won't bother you with my business anymore. Go back to your work."
Upon seeing this, Captain Huang continued to patrol the streets with his men.
Ning Qiu, who was standing by, was furious when he saw that Jiang Yuwei was not going to report the case to the government. He quickly grabbed Jiang Yuwei and asked in a low voice:
"Sister Yuwei, when you left, didn't you say that our shop was set on fire by bad guys and you were going to file a complaint? Why don't you file a complaint now? Are you going to let the bad guys off so easily?"
Jiang Yuwei patted Ning Qiu and comforted him:
"Don't get involved in these things. I have my own plans. Okay, hurry up and close the shop. We are going back to the village."
After that, Jiang Yuwei called Ning Daya to come out and close the shop. At this moment, the shop door was also burned and could not be closed, so Jiang Yuwei went to find some wood to block it.
The shop was burned down completely, leaving nothing behind. There was no need to worry about thieves anymore.
Jiang Yuwei and her group got on the ox cart and headed towards Ningjia Village.
As soon as I arrived at the gate of the courtyard, I saw Chen Guixiang holding Wang Ma's arm and talking enthusiastically.
Jiang Yuwei frowned when she saw this. How did these two know each other? If they have such a good relationship, why not just let Wang Ma live at the Ning's house? Her own yard is indeed full.
"Yun Qing, why are you dying there? Come and help me!"
After hearing this, Jiang Yuwei turned around and looked at Ning Zixuan, and couldn't help but hold her forehead with her hand. It seemed that this guy was also a difficult person to serve.
Yun Qing, who was standing in the courtyard, heard Ning Zixuan calling her name, and rushed out, crying excitedly:
"Prince, do you remember me?"
Ning Zixuan nodded impatiently.
When Wang Ma heard Ning Zixuan's voice, she quickly let go of Chen Guixiang's hand and ran out, looking at Ning Zixuan and asked with concern:
"Prince, what happened to you? Who hurt you?"
Ning Zixuan ignored Wang Ma and just glared at Yun Qing and scolded:
"What are you standing there for? Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
Seeing this, Yun Qing quickly picked up Ning Zixuan, carried him sideways, went into the room, and carefully placed him on the bed.
At this time, Chen Guixiang wanted to pull Wang Ma's arm to ask something, but Wang Ma shook Chen Guixiang's arm away and responded impatiently:
"I'm busy right now, Mrs. Chen, let's talk about it next time."
As he said that, he followed Yun Qing into the side room to serve Ning Zixuan.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei glanced at Chen Guixiang calmly.
"What's wrong, mother-in-law, are you going to invite Wang Ma to live in your house?"
After hearing this, Chen Guixiang glared at Jiang Yuwei fiercely and said vigilantly:
"I didn't say that! I think it's good for Wang Ma and the others to live with you! I have something else to do, so I'll leave first! I'll come see Wang Ma tomorrow!"
Having said that, Chen Guixiang started walking out. When she reached the door and passed by Ning Huaizhi, she glanced at him guiltily and left in a hurry.
Jiang Yuwei didn't have time to care about Chen Guixiang's little thoughts at the moment. She had to hurry up and prepare to leave Ping'an Town and must not stay here to take risks.
Right now, it is the best option for his family to go to Beijing with Ning Zixuan. There will be someone to take care of them on the way. After arriving in Beijing, Ning Zixuan is the prince after all, and he can help his family settle down in Beijing.
Living in the capital will be very beneficial to the future of Ning Zhao and Ning Wan.
Jiang Yuwei thought that since Ning Zixuan was not in good health to travel long distances, she asked him to take good care of himself first. She would arrange the marriage between Ning Qiu and Ning Wu first, and then sell the shop on North Street.
In this way, I can leave Ping'an Town with peace of mind.
Thinking this way, Jiang Yuwei told Liu to prepare dinner. She went into the house to change her clothes and took a bath in the spiritual spring water. Then she came out and said to Ning Qiu:
"Ning Qiu, let's go home together. I have something to ask the village head."
After hearing this, Ning Qiu nodded in agreement, took Jiang Yuwei's arm and left.
When the two arrived at the headman's house, Aunt Ning was cooking. Seeing her daughter coming back, she hurriedly asked Ning Qiu to light the fire.
When the village head saw Jiang Yuwei coming, he came out from the house and said:
"Yuwei, you're here, come in and sit down!"
Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei also walked into the yard with a smile. She first walked to Aunt Ning's side, took Aunt Ning's arm and said with a smile:
"Aunt Ning, I've been too busy these days. We haven't seen each other for a long time. Please come over and talk to me for a while. Let Ning Qiu cook dinner."
Aunt Ning saw Jiang Yuwei open her mouth, naturally she was too embarrassed to refuse, she quickly put down the work in her hands, wiped her hands on her apron, took off the apron and said with a smile:
"Yes, yes, it's been a while since I last saw Yuwei. Come over and sit with me. Aunt Ning has missed you a little too. Let's go inside and talk for a while. We'll stay here for dinner tonight. Don't refuse!"
Jiang Yuwei also laughed after hearing this:
"Okay, then I will respectfully obey your command."
As they spoke, the three of them went into the house. Aunt Ning took out some tea leaves and started to make tea for Jiang Yuwei and the head of the village.
Jiang Yuwei looked at the head of the village and said:
"Village head, I heard Ning Qiu say a few days ago that you are looking for a man for her and want to marry her off?"
The village head rinsed the teacup in his hand, handed it to Jiang Yuwei and said with a smile:
"Yuwei, to be honest, your Aunt Ning and I are also worried about this. I have almost found all the men of the same age in the surrounding villages, but I just can't find any suitable one."
Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei covered her mouth and laughed:
"Li Zheng, didn't you miss anyone?"
