Chapter 561: The Melody of the Time (I)

Dusk is approaching, and in the courtyard of Ning Mansion, an iron shelf has been erected, and a group of people are busy snoring together, some preparing charcoal fires, and some preparing ingredients. Ning Xi, who was being carried by Juan'er, was piercing a chicken wing with an iron fork under the eaves, and Wen Fang Wending, who had just returned from outside, rolled up his sleeves and joined the army preparing for the barbecue with a smile.

Before the Wu Dynasty, because the iron pot was not popular, the method of stir-frying had not yet appeared, and the cooking system was mostly stewed or roasted, not to mention many surprising things. The main difference between Ning's barbecue is that most of the diners have to do it themselves, most of the ingredients will be marinated by the chef, and the roasting process has to come by themselves, plus meat and other things are mostly considered luxury goods in ordinary people's homes, Ning Yi's food is not tired of eating, and various treatments make the food at home taste quite prominent. In the past, I occasionally heard that the Ning family had a barbecue, and it seemed that there were many people, and they would come over to join in the fun.

Even in Ning Mansion, this kind of opportunity to eat unlimited meat will only occasionally appear after Ning Yi's order. Under normal circumstances, even if the family is already very rich, it is still necessary to be frugal when running the house. Similar to the extreme luxury of Cai Jing and others in the house now, the kitchen that serves a person's diet is larger than a five-star hotel in the future, and Ning Yi can't do things like eating the tongues of a hundred chickens in one dish, but that kind of thing is indeed too low-level in his eyes. And the people who come out of that environment are basically rotten to the bone.

On the other hand, most of the big families in the capital today also have many elders in charge, and they have to pay attention to rules and pomp. If it weren't for a family like Ning Yi now, it would usually be difficult for everyone to play together without any image like this.

At night, large and small lanterns were hung under the eaves of the courtyard, the charcoal fire in the shelf had been lit, and Wen Ding and others also brought all kinds of wine and juice from outside.

Xiao Ningxi, who is more than two years old, is holding his small cup filled with juice and shouting "I want to eat wings", and he is also supervising the cook by the charcoal fire to roast the wings he has chosen until they are charred on the outside and tender on the inside. As Ning Yi's eldest son, he is actually a little pitiful, the juice is limited, and only one cup can be drunk, if he finishes drinking. I can only secretly go to my uncle and uncle to ask for it. Sometimes they are scolded, and food such as wings and barbecued meat must be approved, and seasonal fruits and vegetables can be eaten all the time, but how can that kind of thing taste as good as squeezed juice......

In fact. Even a limited edition of wings and roasts. At this time, Xiao Ningxi, who has a small mouth and a small belly, can't finish eating. But for example, he likes to drink juice very much, but he can't drink it with an open stomach, so he will feel very depressed. It's really unpleasant that there is no one of the delicious little wings after eating. Occasionally, his parents would give him vegetables he didn't want to eat.

Happy is naturally very happy, but for him at this age, I am afraid that there will inevitably be a kind of love that is not 100% satisfied. Of course, now he is naturally difficult to summarize the matter, after being told by his parents, after eating the vegetable leaves with a bitter face, he continued to sell Meng Meng and beg for juice without a heart.

This kind of thing is mainly because of Ning Yi's educational philosophy. For him, the most important quality of a man is temperance, and although he also wants his children to be happy, 100% happiness is by no means what a child, especially a boy, needs. Rather, absolute happiness is something that should be avoided when a child grows up, otherwise, it will be difficult for the child to become a real man in the future.

Fortunately, Xiao Ning Xi was also quite obedient at this time, and Su Tan'er, as his biological mother, was stricter than Ning Yi in this regard. Otherwise, the child will probably be made to cry all day long by Ning Yi.

However, at this time, Su Tan'er, as a mother, was worried about other things.

"If it's a little bigger...... Do you think Xi'er will look too weak, you look at him like that, he has no courage at all......"

As the head of the house, the young woman sat on the steps of the gazebo behind Ning Yi, looking at the children on the other side of the courtyard from a distance, with some pity and some worry. Ning Yi was sitting on the stone in front of him roasting chicken wings, and looking over there, it was Ning Xi secretly asking for juice to drink by Su Wenfang's side.

The two-year-old child secretly asked Su Wenfang to taste the new juice behind the pillar, and after taking a sip, he obviously showed a happy appearance of "delicious", but he didn't dare to take a second sip, obviously afraid that his parents would scold, holding his own small cup, taking a sip, and walking away.

"A child who is only more than two years old, you will be content if you are so obedient, if he has the courage now, he will make trouble with us all day long, and you will not have a headache to death when the time comes."

Ning Yi smiled and tilted his head, touched his wife beside him, Tan'er stroked the sideburns hanging down on the side of his cheek, and then shook his body there and gently bumped Ning Yi. I only heard Ning Yi shouting: "Whoever wants chicken wings, who wants chicken wings, exchange tofu and fish!" ”

The surroundings suddenly became lively, and Jin'er rushed over from the side: "I have baked steamed buns." ”

"Whoever wants steamed buns, don't want steamed buns, you exchange them with others."

"I want this string...... And this string of ......"

"Forced to buy and sell, you...... This string is the biggest, I am in a hurry with you if you take it, and you sell this steamed bun...... Hey......"

Jin'er proudly snatched the chicken wings, and when she passed by Ning Xi's side, she squatted down and tore a small piece of meat for the child to eat. Ning Xi chewed and swallowed, holding up the remaining half of the chicken wings in his hand and said, "Mine is more delicious." "He only has a share of chicken wings, so he is roasted by the best chef in the family, which is naturally much better than Ning Yi's craftsmanship.

Yunzhu came over there with a plate and a few bowls of wine, and gave Jin'er a bowl, and when he arrived here, he handed a bowl to Tan'er, and another bowl to Ning Yi, seeing the charcoal fire rising, and looked at the things on it: "What do we have?" ”

"Jin'er's grilled steamed buns, fish and tofu in exchange, I think I should process them myself before eating. I can't believe in the craftsmanship of these animals...... But you can eat Jin'er's steamed buns first, they are almost burned. ”

"I don't want it." Yun Zhu had already taken a few sips of rice wine, and his smile was slightly drunk. "Where's the chicken wings?"

"All of them have been replaced, and the last one was done by Su Wending's daughter-in-law, and I can remember this hatred for a month."

After the Su family came to the capital, the size of the relatives was also increasing, including the daughters-in-law and concubines of the people. Ning Yi is at the helm of the mansion, and ordinary relatives, little daughters-in-law and the like still don't dare to be too presumptuous in front of him. Fang Cai Ning Yi said to change the chicken wings. The other party came over timidly and replaced his wings in an orderly manner, but he didn't expect Ning Yi to burst out like this, and some of the women who were beside Su Wending's wife over there laughed. Su Wending's wife also blushed and smiled. turned around and defended timidly: "Obviously, my brother-in-law asked me to change it." ”

Tan'er smiled and stepped aside to bring two strings of wings. put it on the fire and said, "Yunzhu, I'll bake it for you." But you'll have to play a tune to change it. ”

Yunzhu laughed: "What does Tan'er want to hear?" ”

"General's Order."

"Hmm...... It's embarrassing......"

Yunzhu frowned and glanced at her, and then went to the pavilion with the guzheng in his arms. This "General's Order" was originally a military music, and the song of entering the battle was incompatible with Yunzhu's weak style. However, as long as it is related to the music, it is not difficult to overwhelm the clouds, and as the first sound of the music is pressed, the deep and shocking sound sounds.

The sound of the guzheng was ethereal, and as the music sounded, the lyrics of the song "General's Order" also came from her lips, not a shout, but as if it was read softly, and the first tone sounded, which made people get goosebumps.

"Plug the long wind, and the flute sounds cold.

The sun sets in the desert, and the waning moon is in the sky.

Listen to camel bells day and night, and follow dreams into your hometown......"

The impassioned spirit of military music was hidden under the ethereal appearance, and as the music gradually became intense and the lyrics appeared, the atmosphere of the whole music became more and more empty in the courtyard. Yunzhu's quyi skills are not the first time everyone has seen them, and they are not surprised, but everyone has quieted down.

Tan'er sat next to Ning Yi and roasted chicken wings with a smile.

"Three feet of Qingfeng in his hand, six letters from the pillow.

Kill the enemy's head, and see if the tears are withering.

Report to the court! Who listens ......"

The changed military song had a quiet atmosphere, and it seemed like listening to countless stories, and after singing, even Ning Xi applauded beside him. After all, these skills are her past experience as a woman in the Qinglou, except that Ning Yi can speak at will, Tan'er will not make this kind of request lightly on weekdays, but soon after, Yunzhu performed two more songs for everyone to listen to. Now that she is no longer troubled by this, she can see the happiness of her family, and she can be happy by Ning Yi's side.

As for Jin'er, the dance she is good at is body language after all, and it is relatively charming, except for performing in front of Ning Yi, or communicating with some female relatives, teaching them a few movements, and facing Wen Dingwen Fang and others, it is not suitable to perform after all.

Such gatherings and celebrations were not uncommon in the days that followed. Except for going to the Prime Minister's Mansion when necessary, most of the time, Ning Yi is at home to deal with things. There are a lot of things that need to be dealt with, but there is no need for him to run around personally in specific matters, the basic routine of the original operation of Zhuji has been formed, and from this autumn, Ning Yi is also remotely controlling to further improve the metabolism of Zhuji, the efficiency of operation and the function of hematopoiesis, and the mechanism of supervision and immunity.

Even for Ning Yi, the whole thing can be regarded as a strange and novel attempt. After the expansion of the limitation of communication ability, the reaction ability of the central core is not enough, and it is difficult to limit the loss of manpower and the friction in operation by relying on rules and regulations alone, and even if Ning Yi personally handles it, when he focuses on a certain problem, for such a large stall, the control over other places will inevitably be weakened.

Even if the intelligence system of the Secret Investigation Department could be used as an aid, the problems that would arise around Ning Yi were still extremely complicated. The sum of piles and piles bit by bit cannot be solved by relying on the system alone but only by the system and the mode of operation. For the whole winter that followed, Ning Yi's external energy was almost invested in it, and except for Su Tan'er, who was able to communicate occasionally by his side, these things were not enough for outsiders.

And most of the time, he is still enjoying the warmth of home. Since having a child and supporting this family with Ning Yi, the strength that Su Tan'er has shown has become stronger and stronger. Of course, this kind of power is not a sharp edge in the form of an outward appearance, relatively speaking, when Tan'er first married Ning Yi, there was more exposed edge on her body, but that kind of edge also had a feeling of youth. At this time, as a mother, she looks young in Ning Yi's eyes, but while her appearance is softer, her existence is also more difficult to ignore. Although the appearance is more mellow and soft, the maids and subordinates in the family are the most in awe of this housewife, which is a fact that cannot be ignored.

Only in front of Ning Yi will Tan'er return to the girl who chatted and talked about her dreams in the small building of Jiangning, in the night when the weather is getting colder and even the moonlight is getting colder, Tan'er will curl up next to him like a baby. She would sometimes bite her teeth between her lips, her brows furrowed slightly in her sleep, and Ning Yi reached over to smooth out the wrinkles.

In a sense, as a wife, Tan'er carried many things that originally belonged to him. After accompanying Ning Yi to Bianliang, Tan'er, who was already quite qualified, matured more quickly, she took on the family's worries for Ning Yi, and even in some aspects, she was able to support Ning Yi's operation of Zhuji and discuss various things with him. This kind of maturity will not come without a price, and what is in the form is that she is still young, and in the midst of becoming softer, she can give others great pressure.

And the frowning brow in this baby-like sleep.

One night, Ning Yi also jokingly said to her: "I'm worried that one day you will become a woman as powerful as Lu Pheasant......

The woman who was lying naked in Ning Yi's arms just smiled clearly, feeling his save: "As long as Liheng is by my side, it will never be." ”

Sometimes, she would also go to Yunzhu to rest, which was a habit she had developed earlier when Ning Yi was not at home.

Of course, not about lilies...... (To be continued......)
