Chapter 46: A Thousand Miles of Pulses (5)
It didn't take long for Kong Jinghao to send the newly fired "export porcelain" to Qu Ning in the Tang family's mansion.
Qu Ning was reviewing the manuscript at the desk at the time, in fact, it was the newspaper's release day in a few days, and every article she had in hand was revised and revised, changed and changed, almost making the editor-in-chief in charge of the lead, Kim Yunzhu, almost anxious, and she was finally satisfied. After the finalization is completed, there will be pictures - Kim Yunzhu is quite capable, Master Yun's interview, she has already taken a lot of photos with special "highlights", but Qu Ning has to be responsible for helping her choose the two most suitable for comparison, so that people can feel that strong resentment when they look at it.
In addition, there are satirical comic strips, a genre that has appeared in newspapers in recent years, but the characters are not very distinct, and the pen has a bit of the sour atmosphere of the literati of the old days, which is not easy to understand at a glance.
There are also a few copies of the manuscript sent by Kim Yun-joo that look like this, Qu Ning frowned when she saw it, and had to pick up her own pen to sketch a little - she was not good at drawing, so she had to use instructions and the simplest outline to say what a four-panel comic should look like in her heart.
All kinds of affairs are very trivial, but it makes Jihua, who was only a reviewer and a shopkeeper, completely bankrupt, and he is simply busy.
But no matter how busy she was, when she heard that the porcelain was finally fired, Qu Ning still smiled happily, and went to check this batch of porcelain first, and someone handed over Kong Jinghao's letter to her by the way.
Kong Jinghao's meaning in the letter was somewhat unexpected to her: the matter of the Feng family's visit to Beijing had also attracted the attention of the royalists. The emperor has a group of young staff, who are regarded as the backbone of the royalist party, and Kong Jinghao has naturally become the leader of these people because of his identity as a descendant of the Kong family. He vaguely mentioned in the letter that he was vain to someone because of his deep affection, so he would not think about marriage, but there were several other young talents under him, and the royalists very much hoped that the Feng family's concubine could marry one of them, and hoped that Qu Ning could find a way to arrange it.
She finished reading the letter and muttered to herself.
The clever little guy who sent the letter looked at her and frowned slightly, then bowed down and said, "What our young master means is to think that now that Miss Feng lives in the Tang family, she is also friendly with Her Royal Highness the Princess...... If it is convenient for His Royal Highness, it is better to introduce it to us, it is best to meet by chance or something, otherwise we will rush to visit here, I am afraid that the Feng family will feel abrupt. ”
Qu Ning only felt that his temples were jumping suddenly: unlike the sleek and sophisticated Tang Dashuai, the old man of the Feng family hated the court and the royal family the most - the reason why he lost his official position back then was precisely because of the inaction of the royal family, the rule of officials, and the exploitation of the upper echelons. Tang Dashuai was disheartened and took the initiative to resign, and finally died peacefully, and he could go home to farm and become a rich man, but the Feng family was framed, not only was he stripped of his fame, but he almost lost his life.
How could this concubine of the Feng family marry a royalist against her father's wishes? The political position of the Feng family naturally decides that Feng Siyan's marriage will definitely not be as simple as Kong Jinghao and them think.
She stared at the line of words, but there were more and denser ripples in her heart: perhaps, it may not be that those people don't know this, but their jihua is not as simple as it is on paper.
Knowing that there is something strange in it, then do you want to follow their wishes, or do you want to help them introduce them?
She thought about it for a while, picked up a pen and wrote a receipt, asking the little guy to bring it back to Kong Jinghao.
When Tang finally came back in the evening, Qu Ning didn't hide it from him, retreated left and right, and showed him Kong Jinghao's letter.
The more Tang Shaoshuai looked at it, the darker his face became, and when he reached Zuihou, his face was full of displeasure and low air pressure, frowning, his eyes were repeatedly rolling on a few lines of words, how could Qu Ning not know that the focus of his reading was wrong?
With a helpless "tsk", she reached out and knocked on the table in front of him: "Sincerely, you know me, if I really have any superfluous thoughts, why am I so calm and spread everything out in front of you?" Since I don't have the intention, why do you have to think about it," Tang Shaoshuai raised his head with a dark face, and Qu Ning said calmly, "I just want to ask you, do you see that the royalists want to marry Miss Feng Siyan Feng, do we want to help them?" ”
Although she has replied to Kong Jinghao, she wants to know whether she and Tang Shaoshuai's considerations are the same, which is the most important tacit understanding between husband and wife
Tang Shaoshuai was silent for a moment, he immediately tilted his chin, his expression was a little arrogant, but his tone was light: "Are you worried that Feng Siyan will marry in the future, it will be unfavorable to me?" What you want to ask is, do I not want her to marry my father successfully? ”
Qu Ning nodded with an "um" sound: "If she really marries Dashuai and becomes the wife of the Tang family, that is, my mother-in-law, at Dashuai's age, it is not impossible to have a son." In case there is really a pregnancy, when it comes to inheritance, military power, and even the hearts of the people under you, there will always be some fluctuations and changes, and Miss Feng is such an ambitious person, you really can't take it lightly and ignore it. ”
"So what?" Tang finally glanced at her, "Even if you really give birth to a child, as the eldest brother, it is a matter of course to share his family wealth." But the Tang family army has its own military heart, as a soldier has its own iron backbone, regardless of blood relationship or political collusion in the army, can the wool dolls in the greenhouse do their best when the time comes......" He smiled coldly, and shook his head sneeringly, "As a son of man, of course I don't want my mother to be replaced." But the man ......," he didn't even call him father directly, and sneered, "I also want to see if he couldn't treat my mother well in the first place, and now he will protect a girl who is a little younger than him!" ”
Qu Ning glanced at him subconsciously, finally smiled, nodded, and agreed in a dumb voice: "Okay." ”
Tang Shaoshuai was not worried, but she had already promised Kong Jinghao and decided to match them up. He didn't want to be like a woman, but as a woman in the inner house, the back house was a battlefield that she couldn't escape, and she had the obligation to test that Miss Feng's catties before the official war.
In the army, the act is open and close, and the emphasis is on being upright and upright, and oppressing people with power - this is also Tang Jinzhi's consistent practice, but the struggle between women is more silent where the knife sees blood, and the white knife enters and the red knife comes out, but it is still necessary not to hear the sound of fighting and the smell of gunsmoke.
And Kong Jinghao, who has been immersed in conspiracy and party disputes for many years, is naturally better at the latter. So Qu Ning was very curious, when Feng Siyan encountered those subtle calculations, which way would she deal with it?
***
However, it is obvious that Feng Siyan has won over the hearts of the people of the house, and she has a very set.
Except for Qu Ning and a few of them, almost no one in the Tang family knew that Feng Siyan was here to marry Tang Dashuai, and in the eyes of most people, the possibility of her marrying Tang Shaoshuai as a flat wife was far greater than the probability of her marrying Tang Dashuai.
Coupled with Qu Ning's obvious "respect and distance" towards her, in the eyes of more people, this is the most haode proof.
Through such a misunderstanding, coupled with her handsome golden beetle brother-in-law, Feng Siyan quickly mixed like a fish in water in the back house of the Tang family, and it was simply left and right.
Several young ladies of the Tang family have reached the age of marriage, and if they can marry a man like Feng Siping, it can be said that pie has fallen from the sky, this kind of opportunity, Miss Tang Er and Miss Tang Fourth will naturally not let go - even if they are willing to let it go gently, their aunts will not agree.
Therefore, the backyard of the Tang family has been full of warblers and laughter for several days, Qu Ning passed by the backyard several times, and saw that group of female dependents arched Feng Siyan in the center in the posture of the stars and the moon. She felt funny in her heart: if these people knew that Feng Siyan was here to be their housewife, could they still laugh so happily and gloat so much?
As soon as she walked over this day, the group of women who were originally smiling and trembling immediately fell silent, and sat upright, and the second and fourth ladies immediately bent down and saluted her: "How can sister-in-law have leisure today?" ”
"Sister-in-law," Feng Siyan also jumped down from the pier with a smile and greeted her kindly.
Qu Ning smiled and shook the folding fan in his hand, and glanced at the bright skylight: "Today's autumn colors are just right, why don't we go outside for a walk?" ”
Without waiting for everyone to speak out, she had already smiled and took Feng Siyan's hand: "Sister Feng, you have to give me the face of being a sister-in-law, you said you, obviously the handsome man said to let you follow me, but I haven't seen you in the past few days, do you know that your sister-in-law is worried about you?" She suddenly whispered, "Let's talk about making a newspaper, my newspaper will be on the market the day after tomorrow, I'm going to go out for a walk today, isn't Sister Feng with me?" ”
Feng Siyan let out a low "ah", glanced at Miss Tang Er and Miss Tang Si, and then at the little tail Tang Key who followed behind Qu Ning, and hesitated a little: "Are they also together?" "It's too much of a tail to dislike at this point.
"Don't worry, Sister Feng," Qu Ning smiled meaningfully, "If there are too many people, it is a cover, if there are few people, it will be suspicious." ”
Feng Siyan couldn't say anything, she stammered, but she couldn't delay it for too long, so she had to respond, and she was half-pulled out by her.
A group of female dependents went out in a majestic manner, and met the panting Feng Siping at the door, the man glanced at this group of warblers Yanyan, and hesitated for a moment, but when he saw Feng Siyan's eyes killing chickens and wiping his neck, zuihou was cheeky and asked to join in, Qu Ning refused for a long time, zuihou only saw that it was not early, and he couldn't resist his entanglement, so he seemed to agree very helplessly.
Because of the large number of people, they took two cars, and the unmarried ladies were not good at getting along with Feng Siping alone, so the car Qu Ning was in happened to be her, Feng Siping and Feng Siyan.
The silence in the car suddenly made the atmosphere very eerie.
The author has something to say: the end of the next chapter should start to close the net.
Speaking of today's various article name changes, I shouldn't be involved in any ...... Discordant factor.
It's a Xiuzhen article that I finished early in the morning, and as soon as I woke up, I found that it had been renamed, and I was a little embarrassed.
What's that, this wind of my Great Harmony Country is really ...... People don't know what to say.
