At the poetry meeting in the beginning of autumn, everyone gathers together, but of course, such gatherings have always been for people with status to participate. At this time, on Xiaoyingzhou, even though many people came alone and then walked with people they knew, the number of people who were eligible to participate in the banquet was only about one-quarter or one-fifth, and the rest were all subordinates such as maids and maids, and there were also officers and soldiers arranged by the Hangzhou government to maintain order around and prevent accidents, these people were not counted in the number of attendees.

On Ning Yi's side, the only people who could really get on the big ship were their husband Fù and the Su family brothers, a total of four people, in addition, the three maids, plus the boatman who operated the boat and the coachman Dongzhu who followed the rear cabin, these five people, when the banquet was going on, could only wait in their own painting boat below.

So when it was time to get off the boat and go to Xiaoyingzhou to take a look, Ning Yi and Su Tan'er didn't bring all of Juan'er Xing'er, but just called Xiaochan to follow, and if she didn't need to wait on the big ship later, she still had to come back.

Fang Cai Ning Yi and Su Tan'er talked about Xiao Chan's thoughts, with Su Tan'er's xìngzi, she would not let this little girl who was like a sister be wronged all the time, but there are many people now, and it is not a suitable time to say sī dialect. After a while, she met Wen Haiying, and Su Tan'er walked away with Wen Haiying. Ning Yi and Xiaochan toured all the way, went to Baoning Temple in the center of the lake, and put on a stick of incense, because there were many people at this time, they just let Xiaochan stand next to a little bit and worship.

At that time, the girl's eyes were closed, her god was pious, and her mouth was full of words, and her silky bangs seemed to shine in the oblique sunlight.

"Did my uncle make any wishes just now?" Out of the temple gate, Xiaochan followed Ning Yi and asked curiously.

"What about you?"

Xiaochan shook her head: "If you don't say it, it won't work if you say it." ”

"Oh, it turns out that you want my wish to be unfulfilled...... Ning Yi laughed and looked at Xiaochan, "Actually, I made a wish to make Xiaochan grow ...... Bigger. ”

Xiaochan's figure is okay, her clothes are loose and bloated when she goes out on weekdays, and she looks just like a little girl on a New Year's painting, but she has been together for so long, and occasionally when she is seen at home wearing more close-fitting clothes, she is also quite curvy. It's just that she looks childish***, and it looks cute, but Ning Yi thinks that she will still look like this when she is thirty or forty years old...... Of course, that's a good thing. Ning Yi rarely made a wish, and at this time he just said casually, Xiaochan would probably be wrong, unconsciously lowered his head, and muttered in a low voice: "Xiaochan is already very big......"

She is now seventeen years old, if she is outside, such a woman is generally married, Xiaochan is probably thinking about today's things, and she suddenly feels a little sad, and she doesn't want to complain in her words, and her voice is very small. Ning Yi couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and reached out to pat her head, Xiaochan was tested for a long time, and trotted away with her head in her arms.

The two of them toured like this for a while, and soon stopped in the shade of the tree by the water's edge, and a little golden yellow leaked down from the gap in the tree, floating on the human body like a golden chan'er, surrounded by people coming and going, and there was a woman playing the qin under the tree on the other side of the water. When Su Tan'er was there before, Xiaochan had something on her mind, and she couldn't be too lively in front of the young lady and her aunt, that was the duty of the maid, and at this time she was only with Ning Yi, but she was much more lively, and told Ning Yi about the origin of the girl over there.

“…… She, I heard that her name is Lu Yingtong, one of the most famous Qing people in Hangzhou, and she has dealings with many official ladies. I heard that this Miss Lu met a poor scholar back then, spent all her savings to send that person to Beijing to take the exam, and is still waiting for that person to come back from high school. You see, even though there were so many people around her, she didn't mince words about them......"

"Oh, that's so impressive......"

"Miss Lu is so beautiful, if I can play the piano so well, Juan'er and Sister Xing'er will definitely be envious to death, and the scholar who entered Beijing to take the exam, if she comes back in the future......" Xiaochan held her face, and there were stars in her eyes.

Ning Yi is not interested in such stories, but Xiaochan's liking for these stories is a very simple mood, and Ning Yi will not spoil the scenery, and said with a smile: "Then Xiaochan also knows the scholar who went to Beijing to take the exam and was not entangled?" ”

"I don't know, Xiaochan will ...... in the future Uh, marry your uncle, if your uncle wants to go to Beijing, Xiaochan will take out the money she has saved, and then ...... It's best for the uncle to take Xiaochan with her, if she has no money in the capital, Xiaochan can do business and earn ......", Yi nodded and whispered, "How much money have you saved?" ”

Xiaochan was joking in front of her, and then she blushed: "It's, in fact, it doesn't have much money......

The two talked for a while about the money in the house, Ning Yi originally meant to make her happier, and said that she was better than that Lu Yingtong, Xiaochan hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, no, no." After a while, he also put his thoughts behind, and jumped up and down to say some anecdotes about talented and beautiful people in Hangzhou that he had heard recently. No matter what kind of little strong woman Su Tan'er is trained into, whether she is or Juan'er Xing'er in the family, it is naturally these gossip anecdotes that she likes to talk about on weekdays, and occasionally thinks that she has become the heroine of a certain story, or compares it with the things around her.

"I think that between my uncle and the young lady, I have a better life than them...... Well, I'm happy. Juan'er and Xing'er think the same way......"

Xiaochan finished saying this with a red face, and a voice suddenly came from behind: "Ning Liheng." Ning Yi turned around, she also turned around, in the field of vision, holding a folding fan, Lou Shuheng, who was dressed in a white robe, punched Ning Yi in the face......

Su Tan'er and Wen Haiying rested for a while in the pavilion on the side of Xiaoyingzhou.

In the shade of the surrounding trees, there are basically women, most of them are the wives of which family, and they also greeted a few people, but basically they still seem strange.

On the Hangzhou side, Luo Tian's wife Wen Haiying can be regarded as a landlord. When she was a girl, she was a lady of the official family, and she also knew these women in the upper class of Hangzhou, but she had always been weak, since marrying Luo Tian, because she was married to the family of Shangjia, she also cut off contact with her former sisters. Although the current mood is roughly relieved, when it comes to talking to people, Su Tan'er, who accompanies him, is more free and hearty.

Of course, among so many weak women, although Su Tan'er's temperament is prominent, it is not unique. In Wen Haiying's introduction, there are also several women she knows who are not only virtuous and outstanding, but also good at dancing with long sleeves among a dry girl, and Su Tan'er is the same type of female xìng.

"Over the years, it can be regarded as a hand-down, here in Hangzhou, there is a red scarf club, which says that women are not allowed to shave their eyebrows. It's not a strict association. It's all women, and before and after, when they know the way, they join in, sometimes talking and doing things like being a female celebrity together. I was still young at the time, and my sister brought me in, but I didn't know too many people, and I got married and never got together. You see, Sister Xia under the tree over there, she is the granddaughter of the old man Tang Xiuxuantang, and she is very kind, but I was timid at that time, so I didn't talk to her much......"

Wen Haiying doesn't have much contact with people on weekdays, but at this time she has a trustworthy sister, but she is also quite talkative, talking about interesting things about her girlhood and the like. She felt that she was bored at that time, and she would not know her again, but after a while, two women came to say hello, one was the daughter-in-law of a Tongzhi in Hangzhou, and the other was the granddaughter-in-law of the Chang family.

chatted for a while about Wen Haiying's memories when she was a girl, and then talked about Wen Haiying's sister, and talked about Wen Haiying's name as a talented woman back then, and then naturally turned to today's party. Everyone is already a person, of course, it is impossible to talk about such a vulgar thing as a man, it is nothing more than to talk about poetry, Lou Shuheng's gang was writing poetry before, and these two women were also beside them, watching those people pass out the poems in high spirits.

“…… I saw that Miss Su also said something to Shuheng in that building, and it seemed that the two families knew each other. To be honest, Lou Gongzi's poem is indeed very good, and in just a few sentences, he wrote the weather on Xiaoyingzhou...... Oh, if you want to talk about poetry, Sister Wen's literary style was the best back then, what does Sister Wen think? ”

Wen Haiying thought for a while: "I haven't actually written much over the years, but...... Indeed, tǐng good 龗's ......"

When asked about Su Tan'er, Su Tan'er naturally said well: "Actually, I don't have a few sisters who know poetry like this, but it sounds very good." In fact, for her, she is very good at composing poetry, when she participated in the poetry meeting when she was a girl, who was praised the most, she felt that it was naturally the best, and she was also overwhelmed by it, after marrying Ning Yi, the mood was much lighter, but if you want to judge whether it is good or bad, you can only speak according to the applause of others. , and chatted a few words for the poems, Su Tan'er watched them say the benefits of the poems, occasionally echoed, nodded seriously, and soon remembered something, and said naturally in the exchange: "Actually, a few days ago, when I came here when I was swimming in the lake with my father, he also made a poem, which seemed to be said in passing, and I only remembered a few sentences, which are somewhat similar to their poems, I think about it......"

She tried to recall for a while: "The banks of the West Lake are all raised, and the pavilions are as bright as lying down. Boryeong Fu in ...... At its best, there is no reason for the combination of water and light. The dust of the car does not come, and the horse is broken, and there is a sea and moon phase from time to time...... He said four sentences at the time, and I only remember these three......" pursed his lips, a little regretful.

This is actually "Sending the Monk to Baoning" written by Qin Guan, and the whole poem is a total of ten sentences and one hundred and fourteen crosses. This kind of long poem Ning Yi once read and can't recall completely, he only remembers the first four sentences, and the back is intermittent, in those days, the family played everywhere, Ning Yi naturally couldn't help but read two sentences of the poems he remembered to express his feelings, or to say "If you want to visit the West Lake, the clear lake is not as good as the rain lake, the rain lake is not as good as the moon lake, the moon lake is not as good as the snow lake" and other discussions, the family is also happy.

He read four sentences of this poem, and Su Tan'er tried to remember only three sentences, but it sounded smooth, thinking that he was talented from his family, it should be a good poem, and there was also an element of showing off. If Lou Shuheng could see this scene, he would probably understand that Su Tan'er had no admiration for his poems at all, and a few words of praise with Wen Haiying were just politeness.

Sure enough, although it was a residual poem, as soon as it came out, the other three people were also surprised for a while, and then asked about Su Tan'er's father-in-law, Su Tan'er was happy in her heart, and she was humble verbally. Wen Haiying chewed the poem repeatedly in her heart, and then said softly: "No wonder my brother-in-law is the first talent in Jiangning......" She hadn't socialized for a long time, and she didn't know anything about Ning Yi's rest of the poems, and the other two fù people then asked, and then she was surprised: "Could it be Ning Liheng ...... the head of the water tune?" "Is it Ning Liheng of the Qingyu case?" Talking about those poems, Wen Haiying also listened in surprise. Su Tan'er showed off successfully, and happily talked about the matter of coming here with Xianggong, naturally not mentioning Ning Yi's identity, anyway, it didn't matter.

At this time, on the other side of Xiaoyingzhou, there seems to be a gradual sāo chaos, in the shadow of the tree, some people are looking over there, and then some people are rushing over there, and there seems to be something big in the distance, looking at the many lively. The four women looked at the gazebo for a few moments, and then hurried over to it with a smile and a smile.

Soon after, they could faintly see what was happening in the crowd over there......

Time went back to a moment ago, and Lou Shuheng's punch was firmly imprinted on Ning Yi's face.

In any case, this is a relatively peaceful period, even if Ning Yi exercises on weekdays and insists on practicing the internal skills left by Lu Hongti every day, but if you want to say that the on-the-spot reaction, without psychological preparation, it will still not be much higher than ordinary people. Lou Shuheng's sudden punch, he naturally couldn't dodge.

This punch knocked his face off the rails, and Lou Shuheng's figure came into view, which also made him frown suspiciously.

If the other party is carrying a knife in his hand, he will probably react immediately, but because it is not, the first thought that comes to mind is not a tooth for a tooth or something like that, but figuring out what is going on, or in his case, "what did he do that hurts the heavens and reason".

The first punch was too punctual, and it was probably all tragic

Lou Shuheng is uninhibited, but after all, he is a scholar, and his family also has a very good background, so it is difficult to fight with others and do things by himself. His punch, to be honest, is not very lethal to Ning Yi, but on Lou Shuheng's side, naturally it will not be this kind of cognition, he punched hard, right in the side of Ning Yi's face, this punch was extremely smooth, too handy, so that his next action was almost without thinking, his hand was closed, and the second punch was punched out, trying to continue to experience the wild feeling like a legacy of the Tang Dynasty.

Ning Yi raised his hand to try to block, but at the same time, Xiaochan behind the side also pounced suddenly: "What are you doing." ”

Xiaochan, who looks weak on weekdays, is like a she-wolf who reacts suddenly at this time, the three maids in the family are really doing things, and they may have such momentum when they reprimand and manage people, Xiaochan waved her hands to block Lou Shuheng's murder, of course, she is just a girl with no momentum and no strength, Lou Shuheng doesn't have a good impression of her, the fist that came over changed direction, just a little bit of strength, and hit Xiaochan's shoulder: "Go away!" Xiaochan fell backwards with an "ah", and Ning Yi's hand grabbed her arm.

"You should shout *** and go ......away" Lou Shuheng flashed this thought in his heart, this punch was actually not very smooth, but he was still vigorous, and he kicked towards Ning Yi with a flying kick, but also in the moment when his eyes were raised, he saw Ning Yi's changed eyes, Ning Yi's eyes turned back in the direction of Xiaochan, and at that moment, his consciousness was blank.

It's like seeing my father's deepest gaze when he wants to be mad at someone.

He has only seen that kind of gaze once since he was a child, a few years ago, the family and the Chen family in Suzhou fought, almost to the point of endless trouble, his mother died of illness at that time, that evening to go to his father's side, there was no light in the yard, and his father sat alone on the Taishi chair in the room, almost condensed with the surrounding darkness. Soon after, the Chen family was almost completely dead, and in retrospect, he felt that his father was like a lion entrenched in the dark.

He was at the age of high spirits, and he was deeply loved by his father, so that he was not afraid, but he was very longing, and later adopted a little bit to do some things at home, because he hoped that one day he could have that momentum, and that feeling was good. But it was not evening, it was not dark anywhere, the sun was shining down from the sky, and at that moment, he seemed to see that darkness again.

This kick slammed into Ning Yixiōng's mouth.

Then there was a crisp "pop" that stirred the sun and the leaves.

The two of them are almost the same, Lou Shuheng is not as strong as a martial artist, but he doesn't look weak, Ning Yi is also just a scholar with a long body, Lou Shuheng kicked Ning Yi's xiōng mouth, Ning Yi's side, his body almost didn't move, and then his backhand was an amazing slap.

Lou Shuheng's body spun in the air, and it seemed as if he had jumped on Ning Yi's xiōng mouth, and then with a bang, he fell into the pool next to him.

After a moment of shock, everyone who probably figured out what was going on gathered around, and Ning Yi took Xiaochan by his side and asked about her condition. And in the pool, Lou Shuheng, who had been stunned for a long time, understood water after all, fluttered a few times in the water, coughed, and blood flowed out of his mouth and nose, he pointed upward, his arms, mouth and his whole face were twisted and trembling: "You, you, you, you......"

"Brother Lou, did you make a mistake?"

Ning Yi looked down and asked word by word, a shoe print still clearly imprinted on his xiōng mouth.

Subsequently, some people on the shore crowded over, and someone shouted: "Brother Lou! What's wrong! ”

"Brother Lou, is this kid causing trouble?"

"Brother Lou ......"

The shouting instantly drowned out the place, Ning Yi took a breath, and then spit out a little boredly, he actually already had a rough idea of what would happen next. Of course, Lou Shuheng's next reaction made him a little stunned, but it also answered the doubts in his heart by the way.

Lou Shuheng's identity, after all, most people know him, and with his status in the family, for a while, his friends have already poured over. Lou Shuheng also reacted at this time, pointed at Ning Yi, and shouted loudly: "Catch him!" Get them! jiān夫***! This Ning Yi is the husband of someone else's family, and now he is hooking up with the maid! Get them! Offend public decency! Grab them and dip them in the pig cage—"

"There is such a thing!"

"Shameful!"

"Catch them!"

Several scholars rushed over to this side, Ning Yi glanced at them, then at Lou Shuheng, and said in a deep voice: "Not going to talk?" His momentum was calm, and there was majesty in his words, but at this moment, an old man in the crowd shouted with raised eyebrows: "Lou Xian's nephew, there is such a thing!" You can rest assured! Come on, get this pair of jiān husbands *** for me! ”

Xiaochan shrank her body to Ning Yi's side, grabbed his clothes with both hands, and was about to cry, a scholar reached out and grabbed Xiaochan, Ning Yi's eyes sharpened, and with a bang, the first person fell to the ground solidly, and the second scholar punched Ning Yi, Ning Yi took it with his hand and threw him into the pool.

The sāo chaos began to spread......

I have always felt that the scene in "The City Full of Golden Armor" where Fa Ge backhanded his youngest son to the ground with a hairpin is really the most imposing scene I have ever seen in all movies...... I can almost hear the voice of a lion ......!
