Chapter 234 Ning Qiu ran back to her mother's home
Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei hurriedly stopped Aunt Zhou who was about to go out to chase after her and said to her:
"Aunt Zhou, don't go. Let her be alone and let Ning Wu go find her later."
Aunt Zhou looked in the direction Ning Qiu left and nodded with a worried look on her face.
Jiang Yuwei pulled Aunt Zhou to sit down at the table in the yard.
"Aunt Zhou, if you ask me, it's up to the couple to decide whether to go to the capital. If they think it's better to go to the capital after discussing it, then they're willing to go. But now you made the decision without even discussing it with them. Ning Qiu must think it's too sudden and can't wrap her mind around it and accept it."
Aunt Zhou nodded after hearing this and said:
"Usually, I'm the one who makes the decisions on all matters in this family. Suddenly, a new person came into the family, and I haven't adapted to it for a while. I was inconsiderate and didn't take Ning Qiu's feelings into consideration."
Jiang Yuwei patted Aunt Zhou's hand and comforted her:
"The reason why Ning Qiu reacted so strongly is mainly because she just got married. Her parents originally wanted to marry her to someone from the same village so that they could know each other well and visit each other more often in the future. Now they are separating them right after the wedding. It is understandable that she is unhappy. Aunt Zhou, please don't pick on her."
Aunt Zhou sighed and said:
"I'm not finding fault with her. Ning Qiu was wronged by marrying into our family. I feel sorry for her, so how can I find fault with her?"
Seeing Aunt Zhou thinking this, Jiang Yuwei felt relieved, looked into the inner room and shouted:
"Ning Wu, come out quickly, go to your father-in-law's house and bring your wife back. We can discuss anything there. If you don't want to go to the capital, you can stay in Ningjia Village. You two can discuss it yourselves."
Ning Wu, who was lighting a fire in the house, had no idea what had happened in the yard. When he heard Jiang Yuwei calling him, he realized that Ning Qiu had been angry and had gone back to her parents' home. He hurriedly dropped the firewood stick in his hand and ran to the headman's house.
At this time, Ning Qiu had already returned to her parents' home and told her parents what happened in the morning.
When the head of the village heard that Aunt Zhou and her family were going to the capital with Jiang Yuwei, he immediately frowned.
The head of the village, who usually didn't smoke much, took out his pipe and started smoking silently.
Aunt Ning saw this and said anxiously:
"Dad, stop smoking and think of a solution. Our Ning Qiu will have to follow them everywhere and suffer hardships as soon as she gets married. If I had known, I would have listened to my sister and not let Ning Qiu get married!"
Aunt Ning started crying as she spoke. Ning Qiu saw her mother crying, so she started crying too.
The village head was annoyed by the crying of the mother and daughter, so he picked up his pipe and banged it hard on the table, cursing loudly:
"Why are you crying? You just know how to cry! Shut up! Ning Qiu, you're married now, don't go to your parents' house all the time, go back home quickly!"
After hearing this, Aunt Ning hugged Ning Qiu and sobbed:
"You old man, what's the point of having a father like you? You can't even protect your own daughter. Ning Qiu, listen to your mother. Let's not go back."
The village head was so angry when he saw his wife protecting her son that he pointed at Aunt Ning and cursed:
"You are so confused. You can protect her for a while, but can you protect her for a lifetime? Now she is married and is someone else's daughter-in-law. You, you are so confused!"
At this time, Ning Chen also walked out of his room. Seeing his mother and sister hugging each other and crying, he asked in confusion:
"Why are you crying? Isn't going to the capital a good thing? Now I will pass the examination for the Tongsheng next year, and then take the examinations for higher positions step by step. I will definitely go to the capital to be an official in the future."
Ning Chen sat down directly after saying that, took out a handkerchief and handed it to Ning Qiu, saying with a smile:
"Sister, you and your husband should go to the capital first to gain a foothold. Then it will be much more convenient for me and my parents to go there later. Anyway, our family will go to the capital in the future. Didn't my parents consider this when they paid for my studies?"
Ning Qiu immediately felt that Ning Chen's words made some sense, so she stopped crying, took the handkerchief Ning Chen handed over and said with a smile:
"Look, I haven't figured it out yet. I just cried when I thought about leaving you guys."
Ning Qiu held Ning Chen's hand and said with a smile:
"Ning Chen, study hard and get admitted to the capital as soon as possible. I will be waiting for you in the capital."
Ning Chen nodded, and Aunt Ning smiled and said:
"Our Chen'er is smart. Ning Qiu, don't quarrel with Ning Wu when you go to the capital. You are unfamiliar with the place and your parents are afraid that you will be bullied."
Ning Qiu smiled and said:
"Mom, don't worry, if Brother Ning Wu dares to bully me, I will let Sister Yu Wei beat him up for me!"
Ning Wu, who came to pick Ning Qiu up, heard Ning Qiu say that he wanted to beat him up as soon as he entered the room. He was immediately nervous and at a loss. Before Ning Qiu could speak, he said anxiously:
"Qiu Mei'er, come back with me. I will listen to you whether we go to the capital or not. If you say we go, we go. If you say no, I won't go."
Ning Qiu couldn't help but find him funny when he looked like this.
"Haha, who said I won't go to the capital? I just can't bear to leave my parents, so I came here to talk to them and say goodbye. Okay, don't just stand there like an idiot. Let's go and pack our things first."
When Ning Wu saw Ning Qiu smiling, he also smiled foolishly. The village head saw that his silly son-in-law whose heart and eyes were filled with only Ning Qiu, so he shook his head and smiled helplessly.
In this way, he could rest assured to let Ning Qiu follow their family to the capital.
After the headman's family sent Ning Wu and Ning Qiu away, Aunt Ning went back to the house to prepare some dry food. She wanted to make some extra for Ning Qiu to eat on the road.
Jiang Yuwei came out of Aunt Zhou's house and went to Aunt Zhang's house.
Xiaoyun was playing with her children in the yard. When she saw Ning Qiu coming, she quickly pulled her to sit down.
"Sister Yuwei, how come you have time to come here?"
Jiang Yuwei looked at Xiaoman and then at Xiaoyun and said with a smile:
"Xiaoman is growing up quite fast now."
Xiaoyun looked at Xiaoman, who was playing on the ground, lovingly and said with a smile:
"This kid can eat it."
Jiang Yuwei nodded.
"It's all thanks to you, as a mother, who takes good care of us. We are going to the capital in the next few days, and I wanted to ask if your family wants to go. If you do, we can travel together and take care of each other."
Xiaoyun laughed when she heard this:
"Sister Yuwei, our family has discussed this matter. We decided not to go to the capital. Ningjia Village is our root. My husband is nostalgic and reluctant to leave here. In addition, our Xiaoman is too young to travel long distances. Therefore, we will not go to the capital."
Jiang Yuwei nodded and smiled when she heard her say this:
"I understand. When we go to the capital, I'll have to trouble you and your family to help take care of my little courtyard."
Xiaoyun nodded repeatedly in agreement.
Jiang Yuwei left Aunt Zhang's house and headed for the courtyard. She still had to go to the town to buy some things today.
But as soon as she arrived at the courtyard, she saw Chen Guixiang, Ning Chunlin and Old Man Ning, holding Wang Ma's arm in the courtyard.
