You Take over (Second Update)

Ever since the government intervened, the Wan family has been worried. Reading Because they were actually pregnant with the child before Wan Hui divorced.

But this is also the blood of the Wan family. Wan Hui was pregnant for ten months and gave birth to the child after experiencing life and death. Why should she be given to the Li family? Can't their Wan family, with such a large family, afford to raise a child?

If it weren't for the fact that Madam Li and Li Chen's mother and son had been unruly for those years and tortured Wan Hui in turn, how could it have come to this? At the beginning, the eight-carriage sedan brought the daughter of the Wan family back home, vowing to treat her well, but in the end she suffered all kinds of grievances.

Wan Hui's brothers said that when they learned about their sister's experience, they all wanted to learn from Ning Jing and scatter the ashes of Li Chen!

Besides, it is conceivable what a good child can be taught to be in such a family.

"I made my father worry again." Wan Hui looked at Wan Qing with an apologetic look.

Wan Xing glared at her, "What are you talking about? That's my grandson!" Then he laughed again, "Master Ning and Miss Su are really lucky stars for our family! You all should treat the guests well!"

Wan Hui smiled, "When I brought Zheng'er back earlier, he was very reluctant to leave Master Ning and Miss Su, saying that Master Ning promised to come back to see him soon. At that time, my husband and I thought that maybe Master Ning was just coaxing the child, but we didn't expect them to really come so soon! The guest house for them to stay has been prepared long ago!"

"Zheng'er will be blessed in the future for this good relationship." Wan Xing said happily, "Ask Master Ning later if there is anything he can do for the Wan family."

Wan Hui agreed and went to find Zheng'er with Lu Yu.

At this time, Su Liang had been chased into the back garden of the Wan family. Zheng'er's little face was excited, and he was still cheering Ning Jing, "Uncle Ning, hurry up! Catch up!"

In fact, it was easy for Ning Jing to catch up with Su Liang, and Su Liang didn't use all his strength. The two just reached a tacit understanding and played with Zheng'er.

However, the game must have a result, otherwise the children will only enjoy it and not give up.

So, Su Liang entered the octagonal pavilion by the lake, and Ning Jing soon followed in with Zheng'er in his arms.

Su Liang leaned against a pillar, pretending that there was no way to escape.

Ning Jing walked over with Zheng'er in his arms, and Zheng'er's face flushed, his eyes sparkling, and he grabbed Su Liang's arm, "I caught my aunt!" He looked very happy.

The little guy had not forgotten what he wanted to do. He held Su Liang with one hand and Ning Jing's hand with the other, and touched Su Liang's face with a smile.

As a result, the next moment, Ning Jing handed Zheng'er to Su Liang.

Su Liang took the opportunity to hold him over.

The little guy looked at Ning Jing, then at Su Liang. The suddenly "tampered" game rules made him fall into a brief confusion. He quickly sorted out his thoughts, happily grabbed Su Liang's hand, and touched Ning Jing's face, "Uncle Ning, don't run!"

What a good role exchange, the tacit understanding of the three of them, two adults and one child, is beyond words.

Ning Jing had no intention of running away, so he just stood there, and Zheng'er grabbed Su Liang's hand and touched his side face.

Originally, this result was achieved by the exchange of eyes between Ning Jing and Su Liang. He didn't mind, and she didn't care either.

But unexpectedly, Zheng'er saw that Ning Jing didn't run away, and felt that touching her face was not enough, so he grabbed Su Liang's hand and asked her to scratch Ning Jing's nose.

This is the way adults often express their love for Zheng'er, and he thinks it's fun.

Su Liang's eyes were full of smiles, and he really scratched Ning Jing's nose seriously under Zheng'er's command. Looking at Ning Jing's slightly frowned brows, he knew that he felt embarrassed.

It's not easy to embarrass this great god, Su Liang said Zheng'er is great!

When the game ended and Wan Hui and Lu Yu came, Zheng'er was being held by Ning Jing and playing tug-of-war with Su Liang.

Two to one, Ning Jing held Zheng'er's hand and won.

Zheng'er cheered and Su Liang pretended to be upset.

Zheng'er climbed from Ning Jing onto the table, then crawled to Su Liang, raised his little hand to wipe her non-existent tears, "Auntie, don't cry..."

Su Liang pointed to her cheek.

Zheng'er immediately understood, leaned over and gave him a loud kiss.

Ning Jing coughed lightly.

Zheng'er turned around and crawled back, kissing him.

Then, the little guy sat on the table, clapping his hands with a smile, "It's Uncle Ning's turn to kiss Auntie! That's how Dad and Mom are!"

Ning Jing looked at the tree next to him.

Su Liang looked at the desolate lake.

Wan Hui and Lu Yu couldn't help laughing, thinking that their sons were really smart. They also thought that Ning Jing and Su Liang were a good match, but after all, they were now siblings in name, not husband and wife.

"Master Ning, Miss Su." Wan Hui's voice rang out.

"Mom! Dad!" Zheng'er stood up and ran forward, forgetting that he was on the table.

Seeing Ning Jing reach out to grab him, Wan Hui breathed a sigh of relief, "He's getting more and more naughty."

Wan Hui and Lu Yu thanked Su Liang and Ning Jing again, saying that they had arranged a guest house, and they could go to rest first. The Wan family would host a banquet to welcome them tonight.

Zheng'er, who was tired from playing, was taken away by Lu Yu to take a nap. Wan Hui accompanied Ning Jing and Su Liang to the guest house.

"If you two don't suspect me, you can stay at the Wan family. Don't be polite. After the New Year, it won't be too late for the head of the Ning family to go to Beijing for the exam." Wan Hui looked sincere, and added, "Zheng'er has been thinking about you since he came back, and he has never forgotten it!"

"Sister Wan, we came here just to see Zheng'er. We will return to Bei'an County in two days. There are still some things to deal with there." Su Liang smiled, "Otherwise I really want to stay and play with Zheng'er."

Wan Hui looked a little regretful, "Business is more important. Next year, when the head of the Ning family goes to the capital, he will surely pass the imperial examination. I wonder if you two will live in the capital permanently in the future? It just so happens that my father wants to arrange for one of us to manage the business in the capital. My husband and I plan to take Zheng'er there after the New Year. Under the emperor's feet, we can avoid the scoundrels of the Li family playing dirty tricks. If you two are in the capital at that time, Zheng'er will be able to see you often."

This is actually the decision Wan Xing just made today. He thinks Ning Jing and Su Liang are definitely extraordinary people. To maintain this relationship well, it will be of great benefit to Zheng'er and the Wan family.

Su Liang nodded, "After the New Year, we will go to the capital. It's hard to say how long we will stay, but we will stay for a few days. If Zheng'er goes too, it will be even better."

Wan Hui smiled and nodded, "Then it's settled."

After arranging everything, Wan Hui let them rest and left first, and went to Wan Xing to tell him what Su Liang meant.

"At first I thought that Miss Su obeyed the head of the Yuning family, but now it seems that she is not." Wan Xing pondered, "After the New Year, you should take Zheng'er to Beijing. The business there must not be any trouble. You go to manage it. Dad is most assured."

...

The room that Wan Hui prepared for Su Liang and Ning Jing was full of low-key luxury, antique vases, and valuable calligraphy and paintings, which showed how much she valued them.

After washing up, Su Liang took a nap. When he got up again, he heard someone talking in the yard.

When he went out, he saw Zheng'er sitting in a big box, holding a gold ingot in his hand, and handed it to Ning Jing with a smile.

"What is this?" Su Liang walked over and asked with a smile.

Zheng'er immediately took back the gold ingots that he had handed to Ning Jing, raised his little hand high, and handed them to Su Liang, "Gifts for aunt!"

Ning Jing said faintly, "Just now you said, they are all for me."

"Uncle's, it's aunt's!" Zheng'er shook his head, feeling a little bit wrong, and corrected it again, "Uncle, it's aunt's!"

Su Liang shook his head, "No."

Zheng'er blinked his big black eyes and said with a smile, "Aunt, it's uncle's!" Then he looked like "Look, I'm right this time, praise me as the smartest baby."

Su Liang chuckled, "As long as you are happy. Anyway, these are all for me."

Ning Jing took out a piece of fine agarwood from the box and got up and left.

Zheng'er took Su Liang and showed her all kinds of treasures.

In the evening, Wan Qing held a banquet and entertained Ning Jing and Su Liang, two distinguished guests, in the mansion.

The seemingly cold Ning Jing accepted all the toasts, and Su Liang only drank a small cup, saying that she didn't drink well.

The guests and the host enjoyed themselves.

When the banquet ended, Zheng'er fell asleep in Ning Jing's arms.

Wan Hui originally thought that Zheng'er could sleep at Ning Jing's place tonight, but Ning Jing took the initiative to return the child to Lu Yu.

After returning to the guest house, Ning Jing said to Su Liang, "Don't forget that thing."

Su Liang shook his head, "I didn't forget it."

Late at night, Su Liang and Ning Jing secretly left the Wan family and went to the inn that the Li family had booked in Qingyang City.

Li Chen came the day before yesterday, and agreed with Wang Zhifu yesterday to go to the Wan family today.

The goal was not achieved, so he has not left yet.

Su Liang and Ning Jing walked around the inn and stopped somewhere. Ning Jing said to Su Liang, "Wait here."

Su Liang took out a bamboo tube and gave it to Ning Jing, "Try the drug I made."

Ning Jing took it and disappeared soon.

About half a quarter of an hour later, Ning Jing came back carrying a person, and returned to the Wan family with Su Liang.

...

It was late at night.

The light was still on in Ning Jing's room in the guest house, and Su Liang was there too.

There was a person lying on the ground, it was Li Chen.

Originally, Ning Jing said that Su Liang would "arrange" Li Chen to practice acupuncture for him, but because Li Chen was afraid of death and there were people protecting him nearby, Ning Jing was the one who did it for the sake of safety.

Ning Jing took out a pack of silver needles, which he had found specifically for practicing.

After one needle was inserted, Li Chen did not move at all.

"The drug works well." Ning Jing said.

"Okay. You can practice your touch now." Su Liang said.

So, Ning Jing practiced almost all the acupuncture prescriptions that Su Liang taught him on Li Chen, except for two that were too stimulating and might wake him up.

In order to be proficient, he practiced once and then again.

Before dawn, Ning Jing sent Li Chen back again, without anyone noticing.

The next day, after Li Chen got up, he felt pain all over his body. He had a dream last night that he was stabbed with a needle all night, which was simply a ghost.

Su Liang and Ning Jing did not kill Li Chen because if he died in Qingyang City, he would be suspected of being the work of the Wan family.

That day, Mrs. Li came to the door again and said that she wanted to talk to Wan Hui, but Wan Hui did not let anyone in.

Su Liang gave Wan Xing a prescription and wrote two medicinal recipes that were good for coughs, asking him to try them.

When it came to cooperating to deal with the Li family, Wan Xing expressed his great interest. He was overjoyed to learn that Su Liang was a good friend of Yan Yu, the young head of the Yan family, and said frankly that he had a good relationship with Yan Yu's deceased father and had a lot of business dealings in the early years.

If you want to deal with the Li family, you have to start with the Li family's largest ceramic business to shake its foundation.

Although the three families of Wan, Ning and Yan are all laymen, Li Chen does not know how to make ceramics. What is valuable is the craftsmen employed by the Li family.

Craftsmen can be poached as long as the price is enough.

And the three major merchants are not short of silver.

Therefore, Su Liang's proposal was exactly what Wan Qing wanted. It was something he wanted to do, but the Wan family couldn't do it alone.

But he also expressed his concerns, "The wealth of the three families of Wan, Ning and Yan is enough to attract the attention of the court. If the three families openly unite to swallow up the Li family, it will not be a good thing. Some people are not happy to see the close relationship between our families."

Su Liang understood Wan Xing's meaning, "I was not thoughtful enough, Uncle Wan is right."

Wan Xing shook his head, "Miss Su, don't misunderstand, I am not against your proposal, but it is not feasible for the three families to join forces openly. What you said about snatching the Li family and giving it to Zheng'er is not appropriate. I understand that you have no selfish motives, it is all for the Wan family and Zheng'er. But in this matter, I think it is most appropriate for you to take over the Li family."

Su Liang was stunned, "Me?"

Wan Xing nodded, "Since Miss Su and Mr. Ning are not married, they are not considered members of the Ning family. Even if your relationship with the Wan and Yan families is known to others, it doesn't matter. You can be the fourth party, and our three families will fully help you to replace the Li family and become the owner of one of the four major merchants. Miss Su, go and do your work, don't worry about it. I will ask the Yan and Ning family heads to handle this matter. Miss Su was originally the bond between our three families. Just think of it as a thank-you gift from the Wan family, don't refuse it."

Seeing Su Liang frowning, Wan Xing said jokingly, "In this way, if Miss Su and the Ning family head get married in the future, they will be evenly matched and a perfect match!"
