Chapter 120 What is her virtue?
Suddenly there was a loud noise in the kitchen, and flames shot up into the sky in an instant. The chefs and servants rushed out.
The guards who heard the noise rushed in with buckets of water.
Everything happened so fast and suddenly that the melon seeds in the old lady's hand fell.
Ning Ying calmly placed the peeled melon seeds in the old lady's palm: "Grandma, eat the melon seeds."
The old lady finally came to her senses and became more and more satisfied with Ning Ying.
If other people encountered this situation, they would definitely jump up and run away, making a fool of themselves.
The girl was not impatient and even gave her a handful of melon seeds.
How could she have found such a good granddaughter-in-law?
Ning Ying had her reasons for being so calm.
My goodness! As soon as she stepped into the Qin family’s house, the kitchen exploded.
With such a grand appearance, how could there be no trouble?
Sure enough, a moment later, a woman with half a black face came over and cried, "Grandma, I'm sorry, I'm afraid the kitchen can't be used anymore. The ingredients you bought early in the morning are wasted."
The old lady glared at the woman angrily and said, "Then go to the hotel and order some dishes. We can't neglect our guests!"
"Hey, I'll go right away."
The woman said this but didn't move at all.
Ning Ying couldn't help but look at her.
The woman was dressed simply and seemed to be a servant in the house, but she didn't seem like one.
She looks weak, but her eyes are full of shrewdness.
"Why don't you go quickly?"
The woman smiled and said, "You haven't introduced this girl to me yet."
The old lady said angrily: "This is our Qin family's distinguished guest, you just need to do what you are supposed to do!"
The woman's eyes suddenly turned red, and she turned around and left with shaking shoulders.
Ning Ying almost guessed the woman's identity.
She should be Qin Zhao’s father, Qin Yigao’s wife Liu Fengyi.
However, it seems that Liu Fengyi's identity has not been recognized by the Qin family at all, and the two of them should not have obtained a marriage certificate.
Perhaps he felt jealous when he saw Ning Ying being accepted by the old couple, so he made such a big fuss.
One is to vent his dissatisfaction, the other is to cause trouble for Ning Ying, and also to increase his own sense of presence.
Humble and ridiculous.
The old lady was a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, Xiaoying, I made you laugh."
Seeing that she didn't want to mention Liu Fengyi's identity, Ning Ying changed the subject at the right time: "Grandma, I heard that there is a hotel in the compound that makes good home-cooked dishes. Qin Zhao has always wanted me to try it."
"Okay, okay, okay, let's make some home-cooked dishes in that hotel."
The old lady felt that Ning Ying was not only a smart girl but also a sensible person.
In just a few minutes, something changed inside her again.
How could her grandson be so lucky to find such a good daughter-in-law.
Suddenly, she was extremely satisfied with Ning Ying.
The incident in the kitchen also broke the confrontation in the study.
The old man sighed and said, "Xiao Zhao, I hope you think it through. It was because of the decision made by your father's son that the future of our entire Qin family was almost gambled. Otherwise, I would not have retired so early."
With his qualifications and achievements, he should have joined the leadership team long ago.
But his identity as a daughter-in-law eventually implicated him.
His grandson has a bright future and he has high expectations for him. He doesn't want him to follow the same path as his evil son.
"Grandpa, I know exactly what I want. If you have ever met her, you will know that she is the best woman in the world."
"Humph, don't think you can keep me in the dark!"
The old man threw a stack of documents on the table.
Qin Zhao had already guessed that the old man would send someone to check on Ning Ying, and he immediately met his gaze calmly.
"From the beginning to the end, she was not at fault. On the contrary, she chose to fight against fate and play against the evildoers. This is rare and precious."
"Xiao Zhao, for a family like ours, even if the family we find cannot add icing on the cake for you, it cannot hold you back. The girl is a good girl, but she comes from a rotten family, and it will hold you back in the future!"
"Grandpa, this is exactly what I admire about Ning Ying. She is untainted by the mud and as tenacious as cattail grass. To be honest, it was me who married above my station and it was me who pursued her. Please be kind and help your grandson."
Qin Zhao picked up the teacup on the table and handed it to the old man.
The old man said coldly: "What if I insist on not agreeing?"
"There are only two results. Either I take her away from you, or I never marry in this life."
Seeing that he was determined, the old man sighed and took the tea from him: "Xiao Zhao, as long as you don't regret it."
"Grandpa, if I can marry Ning Ying, I will have no regrets in my life."
"Come on, take me to see your little girl."
The old man really cared about Ning Ying's background. He was a bit arrogant at the beginning, but the more he talked with Ning Ying, the more he felt that the girl was not an ordinary person.
The little girl spoke eloquently, and her every move revealed a sense of dignity, as if she had been immersed in a scholarly family for many years and did not look like a country girl at all.
The old man was in a good mood, so he asked Ning Ying to write a calligraphy.
He never expected that the handwriting of this slim and charming girl was so majestic.
"Xiaoying, who is your teacher?"
"Grandpa, I just wrote it for fun."
The old man didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
I just wrote it for fun and it turned out to be so good.
He seemed to believe what Qin Zhao said, that she was marrying above his level, and he was the one who pursued her first.
The old lady immediately pulled him aside and said, "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and get your things out. You've got someone trapped. Where can you find such an excellent granddaughter-in-law?"
The old man then returned to his study.
The old lady took off the jade bracelet on her hand and put it on Ning Ying's wrist: "This is our Qin family's heirloom. We will pass it on to our daughters-in-law in the future. Now I will pass it on to you."
The jade bracelet is of the finest imperial green, crystal clear and translucent, like a pool of spring water.
"Grandma, it's too expensive."
"It suits you perfectly, so keep it, or I'll be angry."
The old man also walked downstairs and handed a sandalwood box to Ning Ying: "Xiaoying, this is a little gift from me. It can be regarded as a greeting gift for our first meeting."
Ning Ying opened it and saw the Four Treasures of the Ink Room, which looked like the style popular in the Tang Dynasty.
"Thank you grandma, thank you grandpa."
The old lady was grinning from ear to ear. Although the old man had a stern face, his beard couldn't help but curl up. He was thinking about whether he should take his granddaughter-in-law out to show off.
He thought of how his neighbor Mr. Li had shown off his granddaughter-in-law a few days ago, saying that she was well educated and pretty, and he decided even more to take Ning Ying out to show her face.
"Hey, Xiaoying, let's go to the yard and see the fish I raised."
How could the old lady not know what he was thinking? She immediately took Xiaoying's arm and came to the yard.
Several people were talking and laughing around the fish tank.
Liu Fengyi upstairs became more and more angry as she watched.
She has devoted her heart and soul to this family for so many years, but has not received a smile from the old couple, or even a status.
Why did a country girl catch their eyes?
After a while, she made a phone call and started crying under the covers.
After hanging up the phone, she wiped away her tears fiercely.
Since she is unhappy, she will not make the whole family happy.
Why should a country girl ride on her head?
