Chapter 174: Spring Rainy Season
Chapter 174 Spring Rainy Season
It was mid-February, and it started to rain.
There is still a short period of time before Qingming, and the cold rain of spring will wash the world of this world to be clear and clear, and the sprouting plants and trees, containing buds, will be dotted with the world bit by bit.
Now in this year, Qingming is a big day, and there are still more than ten days left, and the Su family is already preparing for the ancestor worship. Just like last year, at such a time, Ning Yi is relatively idle, if the person who joins the family does not change his surname, he will not be able to enter the ancestral hall, and on the day he arrives, he will not be considered a significant participant. Some women of the Su family still have to make some preparations for helping their ancestors, Ning Yi naturally doesn't even need to pay attention to these, of course, he is also relatively idle on weekdays, and there is nothing more special at this time.
If you don't enter the ancestral hall, it doesn't matter, it also means that you are not taken seriously. In this way, according to the common concept, men will appear faceless, after all, the world says how a "big husband" should be. It's just that Ning Yi is here, last year was like this, but this year it made the Su family a little embarrassed, according to Xiaochan, several old grandfathers in the family were discussing with Su Boyong whether to find a way to make Ning Yi participate in this ancestor worship, don't let him feel left out, and then the discussion couldn't get any results, so everyone was distressed.
After all, Ning Yi's importance in the Su family has been highlighted now, although he is a son-in-law, but in terms of actual performance, others can't help but disrespect him. The identity of the Su family is needed, and it can't be changed, but if he is not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, he will not be able to stand the incense of future generations, and now everyone cares about this, but they are afraid that Ning Yi will have something in his heart. Everyone discussed it, and asked Su Tan'er over, Su Tan'er also had a headache, and ran back to knock on the side and mention a few words, Ning Yi thought about it.
"Su Yi and Su Liheng are not very good......"
"The concubine also thinks so."
"Then don't change it...... Don't think about those who have it or not, as for those old people, just let them go, it doesn't matter if you take care of yourself......"
People's hearts and human nature, rules and regulations, Ning Yi will be clear if he thinks about it a little. He understands that the other party's troubles come from, but even if he doesn't care much about many things, he won't be willing to change his surname, and the other party probably understands these things, which is also the source of their troubles.
Of course, suspicion and worry about these things have been inevitable since the night when Su Yusu's old lady announced the truth about the imperial business, and these people will definitely worry about whether he will be ambitious, worry about whether his ability will be too great, or worry that he will be dissatisfied in one way or another, these are also indifferent. It's up to them to restrain or suppress whatever they want, after all, from the very beginning, Ning Yi didn't have any idea about the Su family's wealth and power.
Although the relationship with his wife is very good now, in things like ancestor worship, Su Tan'er will also be a little reluctant to talk about it, but it doesn't matter, one day, she will roughly understand what kind of person she is, even if she will feel strange, after a long time, she will become clear.
It may be a long process, but slowly run in, that is.
Attending classes in the academy every day, among a group of disciples, Ning Yi felt a little strange about Zhou Pei's recent emotional problems. He had known that this little girl was distressed by the rumors of the family's selection of county horses, and the little girl, who was usually quite strong, even cried secretly, and recently found that she was much more eccentric, because two days ago he saw her sneakily picking some leaves and washing them, and then hiding and chewing them. That kind of leaf died bitterly, Ning Yi frowned when he thought about it, and he didn't know why this noble little county lord suddenly couldn't think of it.
As a teacher, he is quite concerned about the few female disciples in the class, this is just because things are scarce, and these female disciples have no chance to learn further after his enlightenment, after all, what they will face after this is only two things: marrying and teaching husbands and children.
But this matter is only to pay attention to, it is futile to do enlightenment, after all, even if they have any psychological problems, it is also a social problem, and they can't change the society, the more they think about it, the worse it is for them, and the sentence that women are not talented is virtue is actually extremely correct in the current society. Therefore, for this little county lord who suddenly became eccentric, Ning Yi still only taught her some arithmetic things, and the rest was not asked. ,
Outside the Su family, the assassination of Zhuji, since several assassins have escaped, is now over. This thing came abruptly and went quickly, but the unusual meanings faintly revealed in it were enough to attract the attention of those who cared. Liaoren, Jin, Wu Dynasty...... Some of the intricacies are just a hint here.
After all, this matter was a bit big for Ning Yi, and in the meantime, Qin Siyuan's life was still suppressed in that complicated quiet, and there was not much change. Ning Yi occasionally went over, just to talk about the statements in the book, playing Go, or talking about trivial matters at home, Ning Yi talked about the recent troubles of the Su family, and laughed at the convenience, saying that he was too low-key and causing trouble to people. It's just about national affairs, and they don't talk about it.
In the assassination of Zhuji, Yunzhu was injured, and Jin'er also subdued one of them, which can be regarded as a life-saving grace for Qin Siyuan. A long time ago, Ning Yi had the idea of letting Qin Siyuan collect Yunzhu as a righteous daughter, and later it was lost because of Yunzhu's performance in Yancui Building, but Yunzhu still had a relationship with the Qin family, and occasionally came to visit this Grandpa Qin.
The last time Ning Yi mentioned this matter, the meaning was originally very extraordinary. asked a former official to accept a girl in the Qinglou as a righteous daughter, after the rumor was rumored, Yu Qin's reputation was damaged after all, but at that time, Ning Yi's consideration was because he understood the friendship of the other party, and was determined to give Yunzhu a good backer, as for Qin Lao's side, firstly, they understood each other a little, and secondly, Ning Yi was also determined to pay something for this matter, as long as the old man agreed, he naturally had this ability, and he would make a few shots to prevent the other party from suffering. Later, it was also because Yunzhu came forward again for his own sake, and then asked the other party to agree, so he had to make some inches, so Ning Yi did it.
But this time, it was proposed by Qin Lao, and the meaning was inevitably more special. At the beginning, Qin Lao could only be regarded as a dismissed official, but now all kinds of voices outside are rising, and he was assassinated by the Liao people again, if he recovers, in the blink of an eye, he will be a high-ranking official above 10,000 people under one person, and he actually brought up such a thing, Ning Yi couldn't help but be stunned.
It is impossible to promise on behalf of Yunzhu, and there is no need to open your mouth if you refuse. At this time, because there were often big people in Qin's family to visit, Yunzhu was not easy to come, and then Ning Yi took Yunzhu and Jin'er to visit once, and the old man thanked them for their help.
This afternoon, tea was brought out in the courtyard, and several people said something, and Qin Siyuan was also clear about the relationship between Ning Yi and Yunzhu: "What is this between the two of you, I am really a little difficult to say, I have never seen it before......" The two have long been in contact with each other, but it seems that due to Jin'er's obstruction, Ning Yi has not been able to take the other party home, but at this time, it is natural to lead Yunzhu to visit, or Ning Yi to decide some major things in life for her, It even feels like a husband taking his wife back to his father-in-law's house to visit. Regarding this kind of thing, occasionally Qin Siyuan talked to Kang Xian, and he was also helpless.
Jin'er knew the old Qin family at this time, and when she heard him say this, she excitedly told Ning Yi about her state. Ning Yi and Yun Zhu could only listen, sometimes drinking tea and smiling bitterly, for their attitude, in Jin'er's eyes, it naturally turned into a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, and was also very unhappy with Sister Yunzhu's obsession and resignation: "Grandpa Qin, you have to scold them well." β
Qin Siyuan laughed: "You also said that they are obsessed, and they can't wake up when they scold." In fact, in life, if you can really be obsessed, it is not a good thing. Let's give them some time. β
He snorted coldly, "Don't give it." β
Having said that, Jin'er can't do anything about it, in fact, in the whole thing, she may not have no fun in it. After she recovered from her illness, she still quarreled with Ning Yi every day, or talked about some things about Jin'er Shop, and habitually lived a leisurely life. In the past few days, it is the matter of Master Li from the capital who came to visit friends in Jiangning has become more and more lively, and I don't know who is hyping up, turning the whole thing into a challenge to Jiangning in Tokyo, many Jiangning talents have taken action, instigating Qilan, Luo Miaomiao and others, preparing to do a performance in those days, inviting Miss Li to come over and compete. No one has arrived over there, and there is already a lot of excitement here. ,
"That Master Li is very famous, I heard that many powerful talents in Tokyo have written poems for her, and there is a famous one named Zhou Bangyan, I have seen his lyrics, and they are very well written." Coming to Xiaolou this afternoon, Yuan Jin'er was also paying attention to Master Li's affairs, "Recently, many talented people in Jiangning have thanked Xinzuo, do you want to write a new poem to suppress the arrogance of Tokyo?" β
"Writing poetry? Okay, I've been inspiring lately. Ning Yi picked up the pen and wrote, Jin'er opened her mouth, and hurriedly leaned over from the table, and Yunzhu, who was walking by, also poked her head curiously.
"Germanium, plutonium, uranium, chloride, thorium, arsenic, cesium, occupy the charm to the small garden. Potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, lithium, beryllium, francium, dark incense, floating moon, dusk...... What kind of poem is this......"
Ning Yi has been recalling the periodic table recently, but unfortunately he always can't recall it properly, so he took the rice paper and looked at it, and shook his head complacently: "Good poetry, good poetry...... However, there are four more sentences, followed by lead, aluminum, tungsten, palladium, fluorocarbon...... Hmm, sounds a bit like it's not too itchy......"
"Hey, if you don't write, you won't write. It's always like this...... "This song "Mountain Garden Xiaomei" doesn't seem to have reached the Wu Dynasty, Jin'er probed to look at a few sentences that occupied the charm to the small garden and the dark fragrance floating moon dusk, "It's a good sentence for nothing, the great talent is amazing......"
She thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "Hmph, by the way, there was a son who came to visit Sister Yunzhu this morning, she is good-looking and steady, she is knowledgeable and an official, she must be better at writing poetry than you, Sister Yunzhu chatted with him very happily." β
"Huh?" Ning Yi laughed, "If you don't believe it, how could he write such a good poem......
"It's the eldest son of Old Qin." Yun Zhu said with a smile in the rear, "Because of the assassination of Qin Lao, and the Qingming Festival, I rushed back from Jiangzhou, and I came here today to thank you." He said that he visited Liheng's home yesterday, but he went in a hurry and never saw it. β
Qin Shaohe ...... Someone did pass there yesterday, but they didn't leave their names, but they said they would come back......"
Ning Yi thought about it, but he also understood, Qin Siyuan's two sons he had heard many times, Qin Shao and Qin Shaoqian, the two of them were one scholar and one martial arts, because of Qin Siyuan's relationship, they were quite important in the political arena and the army, last year due to the effective disaster relief, Qin Shaohe had been promoted to Jiangzhou Zhizhou, probably because of the busy situation, the two brothers did not return to Jiangning at the end of the year, this time they should have heard about their father's assassination, so they hurried back.
He asked Yunzhu about the situation of Qin Shaohe, as the eldest son of Qin Siyuan, this person is actually nearly forty years old, and there is nothing wrong with what Jin'er said about being handsome and steady. According to what I heard from Qin Siyuan before, this Qin Shaohe is humble and steady, quite a father's style, and he can be regarded as a person who truly inherits Qin Siyuan's mantle in terms of learning. It's just that he is not publicized, under the influence of Qin Siyuan, he attaches importance to practice, not good exaggeration, although his poetry skills are also very good, but he writes less, so he is not famous, and he is also moving forward step by step in the officialdom.
The three of them talked for a while about the two brothers of the Qin family, and Ning Yi also tossed the "Mountain Garden Xiaomei", and then wrote the real one out for Yuan Jin'er to take to see, Yuan Jin'er read it and sneered: "That's it." "But it seems that I still like it.
Ning Yi told him not to take out the trick and show it, just take a look for yourself, and don't pull it on him if you want to show it. When I went back this day, I went in to visit when I passed by the Qin Mansion, and sure enough, I knew that the eldest son of the Qin family had returned, but this afternoon he also went out to visit other people, and when he returned home, someone happened to come over, but it was not Qin Shaohe, but Puyang Yi of the Puyang family, Ning Yi did not go home and Su Tan'er and Su Boyong were receiving him.
ββ¦β¦ Recently, the rumors that the teacher girl in Tokyo is going to come over must have known to Brother Ning, and now the crowd in Jiangning City is surging, and everyone is looking forward to letting Qilan have a discussion with the teacher girl...... Oh, although the other party's intentions on this matter are not yet known, there is still the possibility of meeting after all. The younger brother felt that after all, it was related to Jiang Ning's reputation, so he wanted Brother Ning to make an exception and write a new poem for Qilan for the sake of Jiang Ning Shilin's reputation, so he was well prepared......
In the past, when everyone interacted with each other, Pu Yangyi always put his posture very low, but he never put forward any non-specific requirements. This time, Ning Yi understood that the other party had also been in business for a long time, and planned to reap the fruits of long-term goodwill...... ROοΌ ~οΌ
