Chapter 156: More than enough
Ning Shi looked at the middle-aged man who walked in, she hadn't looked at this man for some days, but now looking at him, she actually felt a strangeness in her heart. After Ji Shoucheng walked in, he sat down directly on the main seat, poured himself a cup of tea, and was about to drink it when he heard Ning's reminder: "The tea is strong, I will ask you to change a cup of light taste, it is easy to fall asleep at night." ”
After Ning finished speaking, she gently pulled the small bell in her hand, and when she heard the movement outside, she said to the outside: "Send the tea in." "Yes" Someone outside immediately agreed, and soon the big girl brought the teapot, and after Ning waved her hand at the big girl to signal her to go down, she personally added tea for Ji Shoucheng.
Ji Shoucheng took the tea that Ning had repurchased, and after taking a sip of tea, he put down the teacup and said to her, "I have something to discuss with you and then act conveniently." Ning smiled abruptly and said, "Second master, I also know that you will only enter my threshold if you are serious and big, you say, I can afford anything." ”
Her words made Ji Shoucheng come to his lips, and he was a little speechless for a while. Ning Shi waited silently for him to speak, while secretly suspecting in her heart, thinking about the matter of the woman behind her, she didn't feel that there was anything big wrong, she finally gave up her guess after a while. Even if a few more concubines and concubines are added to this second room, as her children grow up, it will have no effect on those people.
Ji Shoucheng looked at Ning's unsurprised, joyful and sad look, and he said calmly: "In a few days, I will write to ask for my resignation." After a while, she looked at him with a look of sudden realization, and said with a wry smile: "You are here to inform me, not to discuss with me." ”
Ji Shoucheng looked at her, nodded slowly, and said, "A long time ago, I mentioned this matter to you, saying that my temperament is actually very unsuitable for acting in officialdom. You were against it at the time, and I thought that the children were too young, and then the people were young. I still have curiosity about officialdom in my heart, so I tolerate it. But over the years, I have become more and more bored, and I just feel that I am wasting my time.
I'm getting old and I want to quit. Do what I want to do. You can rest assured, I will not give you a cent less for the family. Ning Shijing looked at Ji Shoucheng, seeing that his eyes were calm and calm, she laughed softly, the laughter was low and extraordinarily distant, she muttered: "Since you have already made such a decision, then so be it."
It's just that the elders and children on both sides should be properly explained by you. Ji Shoucheng didn't think that he would deal with the Ning family so calmly, he looked at the Ning family in a little surprise. But seeing that she had already gotten up, she walked to the inner room without looking back, and when she reached the door, she turned around and said, "Second master, you will go out in a while, you close the outer door tightly." ”
"Bang" The sound of Ning's light closing the door woke up Ji Shoucheng, who was sitting in the room in a daze, and he sat in the room and listened carefully to the movements in the room. In the inner room, there has been no movement. After Ji Shoucheng sat for a while, he stood up and walked to the door of the inner room, he reached out to push the door, and found that it had been tightly tied from the inside.
He whispered at the door, "What do you have in mind?" You can tell me about it for both days. I haven't passed that book up yet, and I still have a chance to think about it again. There was no sound inside, Ji Shoucheng waited again, and finally went out disappointed, he closed the outer door tightly.
Walking into the courtyard, he looked back at Ning's window. He went to the study outside the second garden. Ning Shi heard Ji Shoucheng's voice inside, she cried silently, she has been trying to fulfill her duties as a good wife and mother, but she is always a little behind. The night was getting darker, and Ning was still trying to sleep peacefully before dawn. Tomorrow, she still has to live well.
When the sky was bright, Ji Li called his younger siblings up, and asked the two of them to run slowly behind him, and he strode aside. Ji Anning took Ji Shujiao's hand and said to Ji Shuli while running: "Brother, after the New Year, I am one year older, next year, what homework can I learn?" ”
Ji Li listened to her words, looked at her funny and said, "Why don't you go and learn embroidery from Sister Yu?" Didn't you tell me last time that Sister Yu's embroidery work was outstanding? Ji Anning immediately shook his head in opposition and said, "Brother, An Xiuniang said before that I have no talent there, so I don't want to waste it anymore." ”
Ji Shuli couldn't think of any skills for Ji Anning to learn for a while, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are all people who need to learn, and they must have a certain talent. But Ji Anning is obviously a person with mediocre qualifications, but with such a big truth, if he wants to let a person who is an elder brother confess to his sister, he can't say anything like that.
Ji Shuli thought for a while and said, "Then you should read more books, reading books can make people wise and intellectual." Ji Anning thought about it and felt that there was only one way to go, she was too young, and she was born as a woman, even if she learned all the skills, the place where she could use it was too small.
She looked down at her short five fingers, which were indeed a pair of hands that could not play the piano. Fortunately, the Ji family is now a family that is not too bad at reading, and should be able to afford the books she reads. As for things like painting that require a lot of money, the Ji family will not invest in people who have no talent.
Ji Li glanced at his sister who was looking down at his fingers, his heart was a little uncomfortable, and he asked, "Ning'er, do you want to learn to play the piano?" Ji Anning raised his eyes to look at him, shook his head lightly and said, "I don't want to go out of my way to learn to play the piano, it's not something that can be used at home." ”
Ji Li only felt a little regretful about asking his sister-in-law this sentence, a little person, he actually learned things with utilitarian thoughts. Ji Li had a headache and asked, "Then you read the book, what kind of book do you want to read?" Ji Anning stopped, frowned and looked at Ji Lili and said, "Naturally, I have to look at the books that can be used in the future, otherwise, it is better for me to make a handkerchief at home every day and put it in the store to sell it." ”
Ji Li faced Ji Anning's clear eyes, only felt a little headache, and said: "Most of the books are useful books, that is, a small number of books, you think they are useless, they can also be used to entertain people." The books you read are still specially selected by me for you, and you can't choose books at random and read them randomly, which will ruin your own character in the future. ”
Ji Anning nodded indispensably, what kind of temperament she is has already been determined and cannot be changed. She just wants her own temperament to be a little more sleek, and her reaction to foreign affairs can also be resolved by pushing, pushing and pushing three, instead of dealing with it directly, and the result is that she will lose 1,000 enemies and hurt herself more than 800.
