Chapter 29 Jialan Yu (Part 1)
Parked the cart in the low shed on the side of the small building, and then helped move some things in. When he stepped into the hall, Ning Yi couldn't help but think of a word: enter the hall. . It felt quite evil, and I couldn't help but smile.
Although the two chat for a while every morning, when it comes to the inside of this small building, this is the first time Ning Yi has come in.
This small building stands by the river, surrounded by some trees. It is quiet and elegant but does not have many buildings. It may be cool in summer, but it seems a bit cold in winter. Even though the outer wall is thickened in winter, Some ventilation areas have also been sealed with thick curtains, but the host has been out for more than half a day. When he suddenly came in, it felt even colder than outside. There were not many things in the living room, but it seemed quite elegant. Nie Yunzhu seemed a little panicked when the guests came to his door. He ran around trying to find something, but the tea itself was cold and there was nothing to eat. In the end, he just asked Ning Yi to sit down and carried a small charcoal stove. Outside, bring in the fire in the stove on the trolley.
She placed the small charcoal stove in the center of the house not far from Ning Yi, then took a teapot and placed it on it: "Uh... it will be ready in a while."
Ning Yi laughed interestingly. This smile made Nie Yunzhu feel slightly embarrassed, and then he remembered: "Those salted duck eggs..." He ran to the room inside and brought out two jars and placed them on the table in front of Ning Yi: "Anyway ...It was done as Mr. Ning said. , I don’t know if it can be eaten.”
When she was preparing to open the cake stall, she had planned to sell some tea eggs, salted eggs and so on. When she told Ning Yi, it reminded Ning Yi. Some things, so I entrusted her to do these things. The money was paid by Ning Yi. The production process is similar to that of salted eggs, except that lime water, camphor wood ash and the like are used, and there is not as much salt as salted eggs. I just wanted to do an experiment and asked her to strictly follow the proportions. At this time It has been more than twenty days, and I think I can already see the results.
Nie Yunzhu is also somewhat interested in these salted duck eggs with weird pickling methods, but at this time she is more interested in the music Ning Yi talked about on the road. She just hates entertaining people with sex, but she doesn't hate the arts themselves. A person who can write lyrics like "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" usually hums what kind of songs he likes. Although she usually doesn't ask, she is naturally curious in her heart. At this time, Ning Yi was brought a basin of water and a porcelain bowl. Then he brought the guqin from home, brought pens, ink, paper and inkstone, and sat across from the round table without saying anything.
Ning Yi took out a duck egg from the altar and threw it into the water to wash. When he saw the other person's expression, he couldn't help laughing and nodded: "Okay, I will sing it to you. You can copy the lyrics. But don’t laugh if you don’t sing well. The name of this song is ‘Jialan Rain’... Well, it’s this Jialan...”
Snowflakes were falling, and the singing voice could be faintly heard from the small building. .
"The prosperous sound, escaping into Buddhism, upsets the world,
The dream is cold, and there are many love debts in my life.
If you acquiesce, life and death will wait,
< br>Waiting round and round, the annual rings...
How many floors of the pagoda are broken, whose soul is broken,
The pain goes straight to a broken lamp and a collapsed mountain gate.
Let me wait a little longer, history will turn around,
Waiting for the wine to be mellow, waiting for you to play, a guzheng..."
A sound of strings sounded quietly...
************************
In Su Mansion, the library examination has ended, and Ning Yi did not show up. After having a brief conversation with Old Madam Su and others, Song Mao returned to the courtyard arranged for him by the Su Mansion and ordered Song Kai, the butler who followed him, to prepare things and gifts for him when he went out.
For him, the trip to Jiangning this time may be a bit tight, especially in the past few days, he was particular about who he visited first and who he visited later. When he was thinking about something in his mind, Song Kai came in again: "Master, Master Wenxing wants to see you."
Song Mao nodded: "Let him come in."
Su Wenxing is Su Zhongkan's son , ranked fifth among the third-generation men of the Su family - this ranking naturally includes not only the three brothers of the Su family, but also many cousins - but this Su Wenxing is the biological son of Su Zhongkan's first wife, and Song Mao is his cousin. She loved him very much. Song Mao had already expected that he would come over at this time.
It is widely said that the third generation of the Su family has no useful talents, but based on appearance alone, the 23-year-old Su Wenxing can be regarded as a handsome man. After entering the door, he first bowed to Song Mao. Greetings. Song Mao smiled and said something before him: "Wen Xing, the person you said this morning who is fishing for fame is really Ning Yi and Ning Liheng?"
"Cousin, this is really the man. We have already checked his background. For the past twenty years, he has been an unknown nerd who knows nothing. If he had not become a poor man, why would he want to marry into our Su family..."
Song Mao smiled and said: "It doesn't look like it to me."
"The water tune song of the Mid-Autumn Festival was recited by a Taoist priest in front of his grandfather and father, but his grandfather said it harshly. No one is allowed to spread the word, and we are not in good shape either. Talking about this matter publicly outside..."
Su Wenxing was depressed. At this time, he was talking casually in front of his uncle who loved him. Song Mao smiled and pressed his hand, and then used a virtual Click twice: "This is credible Whether he is or not is still a matter of debate. If he is really trying to steal poems for fame and reputation, my uncle will test it..."
"But uncle, you still praised him like that in the library today. If..."
Su Wenxing told Song Mao about Ning Yi this morning. In the library just now, it was easy for Song Mao not to know that Ning Yi was the teacher of those children at first, but after he found out, he was still full of praise. Su Wenxing felt a little depressed. , I am afraid that it will simply add to the reputation of the other party. Although Ning Yi is only a son-in-law now, his reputation will still be turned into a bargaining chip for Su Tan'er.
Seeing his nephew talking about this, Song Mao secretly shook his head in his heart, and then patted his shoulder: "Wenxing, you took over your father's business. My uncle told you a long time ago. , take a longer view, don't be dissatisfied if you look at others' nicknames. Su family, although your sister Tan'er's husband is just a wife, your grandfather will not let anyone touch him. If he is really talented and learned, you can't do anything to him for a while, so why not lend him flowers and build a good relationship with him? Find out what his weaknesses are, and if he is just trying to gain fame, he will fall down one day. Yes, the higher you praise him, the harder he will fall, so why don’t you praise him more before he falls?”
Song Mao’s face looks straight. Honest, after saying this in a sincere tone, he paused: "I have something to go out at the moment, so these So, Wenxing, please think about it and make your own decision. Stay until night and go see your father and mother... Well, let's go."
"I know..." Su Wenxing bowed respectfully, " It was my nephew who thought wrong..."
Song Mao smiled and pushed the door open.
*********************
When Song Mao walked out of the courtyard, another figure was also walking along the road at the other end of Su Mansion towards the side door. direction.
Xi Junyu, who came with Shopkeeper Luo, did not go out with Shopkeeper Na Luo at this time. After the news about the library came, he chatted with a few people for a while before leaving alone. The courtyard of the Su Mansion was very large, and it was not his first time here. He was already familiar with it. He walked around and from this angle, he could just see the two small buildings where Su Tan'er and Ning Yi lived.
It was snowing heavily. He stood there and thought seriously for a while, then turned and left. He passed through several snowy courtyards along the way. When he was approaching the side door, he heard a voice not far away. came: "Shopkeeper Xi, What a coincidence!"
In fact, this is not the first time for such a "chance encounter". Xi Junyu felt a little irritable today and frowned slightly, but he still bowed over there: "Qi Shao, what a coincidence. .”
Coming over there was a young man in gorgeous clothes, holding a folding fan in his hand. He was not old, but his face was a bit childish and cute. Su Wenji from the third room of the Su family came over with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, Shopkeeper Xi. Since we met by chance, my father happened to be hosting a banquet at Yinchun Building today, and I didn't know Shopkeeper Xi..."
"Haha, thank you Qi Shao and San That’s my good intention, but Jun Yu still has important things to attend to, so I’m afraid he won’t have time to go to the banquet.”< br>
"Shopkeeper Xi, don't you say this every time..."
"Why doesn't the Seventh Young Master say this every time?"
"Okay then. ." Su Wenji straightened her face and said, "Manager Xi, I know you like the second sister."
Xi Junyu settled for a moment, and then smiled calmly: "This is something new."
"Shopkeeper Xi, why don't you admit it? Anyone in the family who cares can see this... To be honest, at the beginning, We all thought that the second sister would choose you. That day, my father also said: "I'm afraid that if I choose Xi Junyu, things will be troublesome." There is no need to hide this from you now, everyone knows. Considering your ability, you are responsible for half of the second sister’s business, but in the end, neither the second sister, nor the uncle, nor the grandpa chose you.”
Anyway, it’s already open. Su Wenji opened his mouth and waved the folding fan in his hand and continued: "No one knows why they chose Ning Yi. Don't say I said it in a bad way. I just Sowing discord. You would think so even if I didn't stir things up. And just now, Ning Yi was in the limelight without being present. Do you know that Grandpa will think more and more of him? He is just a nuisance. Son-in-law..."
Xi Junyu listened to these words and then smiled lightly: "Qi Shao, I know that they have not consummated their marriage yet, and they are still divided. Sleeping in the same room, it looks like the couple are actually strangers. As long as they have not consummated their marriage, this extra son-in-law will always consummate the marriage! We both know my second sister’s character. She has already started to get along with Ning Yi, and she will always consummate her marriage. She has been raised well since she was a child, and she will never do anything unruly. She has accepted it..."
"Oh, Qi Shao, you are so unscrupulous in talking about your sister..."
Xi Junyu shook his head and moved forward. Su Wenji from behind gritted his teeth: "No matter how we talk about it, it's like this! Xi Junyu, you know very well that my sister will accept him sooner or later. It's impossible for you to be like this..."
Before he finished speaking, Xi Junyu suddenly turned around. He bowed his head and strode over. He had a slender figure and already looked tall. He had worked hard in the mall for several years. He walked quickly with a gloomy face. In the wind and snow, his momentum was indeed a bit intimidating. He stared at Su Wenji for a while, then smiled coldly and shook his head: "Qi Shao, don't be naive..."
Xi Junyu often went into the house to discuss things, and Su Wenji often came over to wait. Several "chance encounters" "Everyone said polite words in a friendly manner. Su Wenji had never seen the face of Xi Junyu, who was always calm and confident.
At this time, he was slightly stunned, and then said: "Xi, Shopkeeper Xi, if you come to my place, you will immediately become the big shopkeeper of the Su family. All the resources of the three rooms of the Su family are at your disposal. , no matter how much you ask for, as long as we can meet it, we will naturally agree to it. If you can manage these resources well, Second Sister After all, she is just a woman. She will not be able to take over the big house in the future. If you want to get her, there are naturally many ways... My father said that you are a smart person. Everyone knows that you are a smart person. We are sincere here. There is no need to say more. Say, just think about it for yourself..."**************
