Chapter 100: Su Tan'er's Day (Part II)
Chapter 100: Su Tan'er's Day (Part II)
The sound of the carriage and the horse Xiao Xiao came from a distance, and the shadows of the trees were mottled between the lanes behind the warehouse, and the two figures were sitting there each holding a bowl of cold noodles and eating slowly.
"There are several stores in Jiangning City, and they have to go around every day. Daddy used to bring it here, saying that if he really wanted to take care of this, he would have to spend a lot of effort to figure out everything that should be understood. Now there are few young masters in the family who can really manage the store well, I can manage these well, and I can do the things in the hands of any shopkeeper......"
Through the low wall, the shadows of the trees, and the ditch, you can faintly see the situation above the market over there, and the noise is heard. Ning Yi was strolling here after class at noon today, and the two of them were eating cold noodles in the back of this at this time, taking a break and chatting. Su Tan'er usually doesn't eat snacks much, but at this time, it seems that she is in the corridor on the second floor of the small building at night, holding a small bowl while talking about something trivial. From the origin of the fairy skirt to the ratio of some dyes.
"There is a record in the Xijing Miscellaneous Records that the origin of the Liuxian skirt is because of Zhao Feiyan, and the skirts of the Western Han Dynasty before actually did not have such folds, but it is said that once Zhao Feiyan danced when the skirt was pulled by a palace maid, with wrinkles, it looked better when she jumped, and later the women in the palace followed suit. However, the folds of the skirt at that time were not like now, and there was a good-looking pattern in the Tang Dynasty, which had seven more processes than the current skirt, but it was a little troublesome to wear it......"
"Today's clothes are not simple colors such as white and blue, this kind of white is very troublesome to dye, there are a total of 23 processes, the first dye is very special, no sulfur or lime...... Blue is easy to dye, but here is the color between emerald blue and royal blue, using a very expensive dark blue star color stone, which is the kind placed on the screen on the second floor at home, if it is used as a fat powder for eyebrow painting, it is valuable. There is one over there in Annanfang, and a very small box costs fifteen ......."
When Su Tan'er was at home, she mostly talked about her parents, talked badly about a bunch of foolish cousins, or scolded her business partners or something, and she looked a little bad when she ate. At this time, she was just talking about things related to printing and dyeing, weaving, and clothing, and she could talk about things on Ning Yi's body casually, she was not endorsing the attitude, but she understood these very well, and she didn't know how much effort had been spent on this, Ning Yi was holding half a bowl of cold powder, and it was quite interesting to listen to this nineteen-year-old woman with his wife's name say this.
The movement in the warehouse in front of it has been continuing, and there seems to be a noisy sound on the street on the side of the warehouse around Xin Shi, and Xing'er ran over and said that there was a fight ahead, and the two gangs were fighting in a group or something. Su Tan'er just turned her head to look at Ning Yi, and said with a smile: "There are often fights here, and sometimes people die, let's not go to see it......"
There was some pleading in her words, and Ning Yi nodded: "Well, so as not to be injured by mistake." Apricot looked at the atmosphere and ran away with a smile again. Su Tan'er turned her head and shouted inside: "Don't get hurt." ”
On the one hand, there was a faint sound of chaotic fighting, and on the other hand, there was still a busy chariot and a horse Xiao Xiao, the two sat in this back alley chatting, listening to the sound of cicadas in autumn, watching the mottled light and shadow falling from the gaps in the trees, and those sounds seemed to become a little distant. The jelly is not delicious, Su Tan'er took a sip and held it in her hand without moving, a leaf fell in the bowl, she just watched, and it took a long time to make it out with a spoon, and sprinkled it on the ground with a spoonful of sugar water.
"It's been a long time since I've had such a leisurely time, and if the city gates are closed, I'm afraid I'm going to be even busier."
"Isn't it more leisurely to close the gates?" Ning Yi took the half bowl of cold noodles that he had held in his hand for a long time and ate another spoonful.
"The city gates were closed for a month a few years ago, and I was not very old at that time, but I also felt bored." Su Tan'er looked at him, "Didn't Xianggong even forget this?" ”
"I don't remember."
"What kind of person should Xiang Gong have been before? Can't figure it out......"
"Maybe a nerd, maybe a dull one, or maybe it's the same as it is now...... Uh, what are you thinking with those eyes? ”
"I went to see Xianggong before, and I went with Xiaochan Xiaojuan and them, and asked what kind of person Xianggong was." Su Tan'er thought for a while and laughed, "At that time, everyone did say that Xianggong was a nerd, I secretly went to see Xianggong once, and I saw it from afar, but I couldn't go up to talk, so I don't know what Xianggong was like at that time...... Xianggong was walking with his head buried at that time, and I didn't know how to say that Xiaochan and I opened the curtain to look at you in the carriage not far away. ”,
There were screams from afar, shouts like "killed", it was like a chaotic background sound, Ning Yi thought about it, smiled and didn't speak, Su Tan'er tilted her head: "Xianggong is angry?" ”
"No, I just thought things were interesting."
Su Tan'er nodded and smiled knowingly: "The concubine body also finds it interesting." In the words, there seemed to be a slight emotion, and the mood was a little complicated, of course, this complexity may be different from what Ning Yi had in his heart.
Soon after, the arrest of the yamen came quickly, dispersed the fighting in front, and probably arrested some people, and in the evening, Ning Yi and Su Tan'er walked through the warehouse to the front door, and the street had returned to a normal bustling state, pedestrians came and went, workers carrying goods came and went, and the person in charge of the store shouted and commanded the work as before. While passing through the warehouse, a small incident happened.
It was a wooden frame that didn't look very stable, and the two of them shook it a few times when they passed by, because there was a guy on the opposite side who was loading a large amount of goods, and he probably couldn't control it for a while, and he was crumbling, Ning Yi saw it, and wanted to use his hand to help him forward, but Su Tan'er, who was walking a little ahead and looking at the goods on the other side, probably turned his head and noticed this side, and almost at the same time waved his hand back and took a step, trying to squeeze Ning Yi away.
This may be a subconscious action, because she didn't even have time to say it, she finally squeezed Ning Yi to a stop, and she couldn't completely hold on to a big bag in front of her, and the white cotton yarn spindle fell out of the pocket, all of which were light things, one of which smashed on Su Tan'er's head, Su Tan'er squinted her eyes and shrunk her neck, and then she called softly: "Ah......" Then said: "Xianggong ......" The front chest was against the back, and the two almost leaned together like this. After a moment, Ning Yi took a step back.
Even if a whole bag of cotton yarn spindles fell and hit someone, it was estimated that it would not be a big deal, but the subconscious blocking result helped Ning Yi to be somewhat amused, and he was secretly strong. Not long after, Ning Yi said with a smile: "Do you know that if there are other things on the road that are smashed, it will be troublesome?" Su Tan'er just tilted her head and smiled indifferently: "I saw that it was a cotton yarn spindle." ”
"Oh." Ning Yi nodded, then laughed again, "Help......"
"Zhilu said......" Su Tan'er made a slightly embarrassed expression.
It's just a small thing, and after tidying up the slightly messed hair, it seems to have passed like this.
As the sun set, after saying a few words to Shopkeeper Liao, Su Tan'er and Ning Yi found Juan'er and Xing'er together, picked up a few large and small boxes and prepared to get into the carriage, and go home.
The time is close to July and a half, all the way back to Sufu, along the way you can see a lot of stalls selling paper, bamboo, money and the like, now the victims are coming, all kinds of pedestrians with a sad face are also a lot, beggars on both sides of the road, homeless. After returning to Su Mansion, there were more or less fresh faces in the huge mansion, only when he entered the door, there were more than ten people waiting in the gatehouse to come and talk to Su Tan'er, Su Tan'er also smiled and nodded to say hello, Ning Yi was accompanied by him, and after a while, Xiao Chan, who had been busy for a day, trotted out from the courtyard gate on the side of the sunset, waved his hand to this side with a smile, and then quietly squeezed into the crowd and moved behind Su Tan'er silently.
On the way back to the yard, Xiaochan also had to tweet about the situation at home, which relative encountered any difficulties. Some of them are more closely related to the big house, or they will be handled by Su Boyong's side, or they will have to be handled by Su Tan'er's side. It is said that there is a young master who has come from afar in Jiangning City in recent days, and today he went to a gambling house to cause trouble and was detained, he ** is not good to find Su Boyong for help, I heard that Su Tan'er has always been very talkative here, and now he has also begged to come over, Su Tan'er had to frown and ask the amount of money involved, and then asked Xiaochan to find a Sun Huyuan who is better at dealing with this kind of thing in the house.
Similar things often happen, especially in the past few days, there are more than one or two things, before dinner, the Sun Nursing Home named Sun Er came over, and after learning about the specific things with Su Tan'er, he took a silver ticket and went out. Before dinner, Su Tan'er also went to her father's side. After dinner, after nightfall, all kinds of people came to visit, relatives near and far, most of these people left, so Su Tan'er could go back to her room to deal with some documents and accounts. , Many times Ning Yi actually thinks that this kind of busyness is very interesting, for people who really have a heart and a goal - such as Su Tan'er, this busyness will not cause her too many problems in normal times, watching her skillfully deal with these things, Ning Yi occasionally thinks of her former self. However, in recent days, it has been a bit overloaded after all.
Preparing for the matter of worshipping the ancestors in the seventh and half months, arranging and dealing with the affairs of some relatives in the big house, and the matter that the city gate is about to be closed, the most important thing is probably because of the progress of the imperial business, at midnight this day, the light in Su Tan'er's room was not extinguished, Ning Yi read the book for a while, and went to the courtyard for a walk. The autumn night was cool, he had recently practiced the qigong method taught to him by Lu Hongti, and he had not yet seen the results of his destructive power, but he was in good spirits, he walked to the corridor under the eaves of Su Tan'er's side and stopped, and sighed slightly.
The window of Su Tan'er's bedroom was open, the desk was placed in front of the window, the light of the oil lamp trembled slightly on the table, and in the warm yellow light, Su Tan'er was lying on the paper of a few letters, and she was already asleep at this time, with slightly messy sideburns.
Ning Yi stood in front of the window and watched for a while, then blew out the oil lamp on the table, the window darkened, and the bright moon and clear light sprinkled in this courtyard. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, the rear seemed to notice the change in light, and there was a sound of "hmm", Ning Yi turned around, and Su Tan'er also sat up with difficulty over there, stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes in a daze, then sniffed and looked out of the window.
There were some bland glances in the moonlight, Su Tan'er's eyes seemed to have light in the dark, but they were not very open, a little lazy and confused: "Uh...... Husband......"
In the moonlight, it was a whisper like a little girl......
