The third day of May is a sunny day.

It's not such a special day for Ning Yi, running as usual, eating as usual, going to class as usual, of course, Jiangning City is indeed very lively these days, walking around the street, you can always see some Qinglou performances by chance, people talk about such things, and often talk about the fact that so-and-so girl got a lot of flowers, or which two people are jealous of the wind. Even if it is an ordinary thing, when you go to the teahouse restaurant, you can always add a lot of twists and turns, which is quite dramatic.

In the past two or three days, Su Tan'er has indeed been a little busy, leaving early and returning late, and what she does is a little secret, but Ning Yi vaguely knows that there is an outline of the Dao, which is probably related to the "palace introduction" or something. Su Tan'er has been doing a lot of things quietly, but secretly she is indeed going in this direction. She wants to be an imperial businessman, get in touch with Bianliang, and ...... It is estimated that the direction has also been found.

There are also two kinds of imperial merchants in these years, since Tanyuan and Heishui sued for peace twice, there is a great demand for cloth and silk in the north to compensate, and the royal family will not give a high price, but it is equivalent to small profits and quick turnover. On the other hand, now that the court of the Wu Dynasty collects good things everywhere, if the really good silk can be sold to the palace, there will be many benefits after this line is passed. Su Tan'er is not just delusional, on the one hand, to find a relationship, on the other hand, to improve the technique, looking for a breakthrough, this time there is something I am afraid is that she secretly made the technique team, in some key techniques, the merchant is also secretive, once something happens, in addition to Su Tan'er, Su Boyong, I am afraid that the shopkeeper in charge is not very easy to make. But it's not busy, it's just that you can't relax.

Ning Yi didn't understand what Su Tan'er's overall plan was at the moment, after all, it was just some speculation during the small talk. But I am only nineteen years old, and my gentle and polite wife has a big appetite in this regard, which is admirable. There is no conspiracy in the world, there is just a difference between a big appetite and a greater appetite, once this matter is properly done, Su Tan'er will no longer be in suspense in charge of the Su family, and the other two rooms may still be working on some basic troublemaking and stumbling blocks. The vision is different.

And although no one can react, Su Tan'er is not taking any shortcuts, she is spending effort on the improvement of her skills after all, and then strive for opportunities. This thing is solid, although there may also be an element of luck in it, but in a sense, Ning Yi has to think that some women in this era are probably much more pragmatic than many men at the moment once they do things. Su Tan'er is nineteen years old this year, and I don't know how long she has been planning these things since she started.

Ning Yi appreciated these things in his heart, and he didn't have to pay too much attention to them, Xiaochan still accompanied Miss out during the day of the first and second days of junior high school, and on the third day of junior high school, he carefully dressed up and followed Ning Yi to the school. To be honest, in the past two days, Ning Yi felt that the little girl was a little strange, as if she had something on her mind, she was swaying when she was walking last night, and she only woke up when she hit a tree. Today is occasionally a little distracted, of course, it is only a few times like this, most of the time it is still the same as usual, chattering and talking behind, eating something outside with Ning Yi after school at noon, carrying a small bag of candy in her arms, but not eating, Ning Yi occasionally looked at her, and she showed a very serious expression.

"Family...... Is something wrong? ”

"Huh?"

"Something is wrong with you for the past two days...... If something happens to the family, if you can help, you still have to help, so it's okay to tell me......"

Ning Yi said this, the little girl blushed a little at first, and then shook her head desperately.

"No, it's nothing, Xiaochan's family has nothing to do...... It's really nothing......" After emphasizing this, he looked at Ning Yi with a weak heart, "Uh, that...... It's happy, tonight is very lively, Miss took it to see it once a few years ago, at that time, Miss and we were both dressed as boys, Miss was dressed up very good, Juan'er and I couldn't play well, hehe......hee"..., Ning Yi pouted, there should be nothing, Xiaochan didn't say, he naturally didn't need to ask: "Then Xiaochan won't dress up as a man today?" ”。

"Ah......" Xiaochan is dressed up beautifully today, wearing a white summer dress decorated with flowers, slender and well-behaved, looking down at this time, a little embarrassed, "I don't have to change my clothes, Xiaochan has been dressed up for a long time in the morning......"

"Then I won't change it."

Ning Yi waved his hand, Xiaochan's nervous expression was put down, and she reached out and grabbed the corner of Ning Yi's clothes and trotted a few steps behind, with white wrists: "Uncle is so good...... Wise Shenwu ......"

"If you don't learn, you can't ......," Ning Yi laughed.

It's still early, and the gate of Jiangning City is not closed tonight. The large group of people who go to Bailuzhou to watch the performance usually assembles in the evening, when the painting boats and floats will start together and parade all the way to gather. Of course, although there are also people who go to the outing there in the afternoon, all kinds of vendors and jugglers will also pass at this time, and even if many people can't enter the main venue in the evening, they will watch some performances around, and only after the performance in the venue is over, they will come back with the painting boat float, and you can also enjoy the singing and dancing of many beautiful women along the way.

Ning Yi didn't plan to go to Bailuzhou at this time, he didn't have any beauties to support, and Xiaochan went all the way to the side where Qin Lao set up a stall, Qin Siyuan wouldn't go tonight, but it was said that Kang Xian would still go.

In the afternoon, the breeze blows on the riverbank, the willows swing slightly, and the water splashes on the riverbank. Ning Yi and Qin Lao chatted while playing chess, Xiaochan sat on the stool next to her, kicking and kicking her calves under her skirt, her embroidered shoes shook gently, while looking at the scenery, she nodded and sang, singing "When Will the Bright Moon Be There" taught to her by Ning Yi, a relaxed and comfortable feeling, she didn't tie the bag of buns today, her hair was caress with the wind, green and innocent, but she also faintly felt that she had grown up.

The singing voice was immersed in the wind on the riverside in the afternoon, which was incomparably consistent with the melody of the wind and water, and Qin Lao smiled: "Although the tune is a little strange, Miss Xiaochan sings really well." Xiaochan became happy, she had been practicing for this song for a long time.

Time passed a little further, and when it was close to evening, in the small courtyard behind the Jinfeng Building, Yuan Jin'er was taking off her makeup and enjoying only a little relaxing time. Although it is her turn to perform officially tonight, there are a lot of entertainment needs in the past few days, starting from the morning, dealing with the visits of a talented man and the gold owner, maneuvering between the males who are jealous of each other and looking at each other unpleasantly, stabilizing the situation, controlling the atmosphere, trying not to make anyone really angry, so that they have flesh and blood with each other, and secretly fighting without really tearing their faces, for her, it is also a very exhausting thing.

In fact, the invisible competition of the Flower Race Club has started half a month ago, and this is basically the case these days. This afternoon, I was a little free, and I only coped with the greetings of such important guests as Cao Guan. Fang just played a piano on the stage outside, listened to everyone's praise, and then calmly thanked her, and then came back to remove her makeup. The next period until the evening float starts belongs to her, and she, as the head of the four major lines, the signboard of Jinfeng Building, does not need to perform on the float, as long as she recharges her energy and prepares for the evening performance.

"It's okay tonight, as long as you guarantee the top sixteen...... I've been busy these days, I'm hungry, I can't eat much, and my mother asked me to eat less, because she wanted to starve me to death......"

Shorts and shorts - in fact, he wore two underwear - and he didn't make up much after removing his makeup, and his hair was messy at this time, Yuan Jin'er was lazily leaning on the cool bed at this time, her fair pink shoulders and neck, bare feet and wrists were all unguardedly exposed, while talking, while holding a plate of candied fruit in front of her chest and stuffing it into her mouth. The bowl was then snatched by another person in the room. ..., "Mom asked you to eat less, because she was afraid that you would have bloating during the performance, so you would eat some soup and rice if you wanted to." At this time, you are desperate to eat fruit, and you don't eat at night, what should you do if you get flatulated during the performance, and you spit out in your mouth, you are not afraid of choking......"

Yuan Jin'er originally wanted to grab the fruit plate, but the hand had to go to her mouth, so she closed her mouth "hmm", puffed out her cheeks and didn't open them, and then struggled. The hand patted her face angrily, she crawled into the cool bed and chewed it all down, then coughed for a long time, clutching her throat: "Uh...... I swallowed the pit, ahem......"

The hand poured a small half glass of water: "Just take a sip and eat later." ”

"Zhilu said, Sister Yunzhu...... Ah no, Brother Yunzhu. ”

The other person in the room is Nie Yunzhu, today she is dressed in a black robe, her long hair is tied up, and she is wearing a bachelor's scarf. Of course, at first glance, some people may think of her as a man, but it is still easy to admit it. Women dressing up as men not only have to make up, but also have to be good at acting, but also have talent, Nie Yunzhu may be good at makeup performances, but unfortunately lack talent.

In the past, Nie Yunzhu would not have easily approached Jinfeng Tower, but now it is starting to be a little different, and in the past two months, the sound of Songhua Dan has been developing quietly. She hired some people under Ning Yi's guidance, and later when she wanted to hire one or two cooks, she also passed through Yuan Jin'er's side, after all, some of the relationships she could find now were here, and now she gradually regarded herself as a businessman - although she usually didn't look like it at all, and she didn't have a very complicated business with people.

In the past two months, although the Songhua Egg has become famous as Ning Yi predicted, the business is silent and low-key, and some things that are brewing have not yet come out. Nie Yunzhu resumed occasional contact with Yuan Jin'er, the most important thing was that Yuan Jin'er wanted to make some limelight in this Oiran competition, and Jin Fenglou's mother agreed with her that if Yunzhu could help a little, she would try to help if she wanted to do something in the future.

"In fact, Cao Guan is really enthusiastic this time, compared to last year, I don't know how many times Lu Dao has to work hard, Jin'er, you look at these poems, it's really ...... heart"

Nie Yunzhu smiled and sorted out some poems on the table, and Jin'er stood up on the cool bed with a smile, she stroked her hair while only wearing obscene clothes, she seemed to have a little charming feeling at this time, "He, he just wants to find a place for last year's events." As she spoke, the girl's body stretched gently on the bed, slowly swaying with the scheduled dance steps, the slender bare feet kicked at will, and stepped on the cool bed with a brisk footnote, a swing, the soft body leaned back with the wave of the hand, and looked like it was about to fall, but it was a quick turn, the hair danced into a circle, took a step forward, fixed there, and then naturally bowed down, thanks.

"Actually, Jin'er doesn't care whether she becomes an Oiran or not, the head of the four major lines is good, and she has become an Oiran, I don't know what Lu Dao will become. After Feng Xiaojing became an Oiran, it is said that one day he was forced by the commander Cheng and almost jumped off the building. If I become an Oiran, I'm afraid I'll have to find someone to marry immediately......"

"At that time, if you want to redeem yourself, it will be worth even more."

"There's always someone who wants to marry, Oiran and it's good to marry and brag about it......"

"Hasn't Jin'er found someone who is willing to marry willingly?"

Yunzhu asked with a smile. Yuan Jin'er frowned, then almost twisted her mouth into a pig's mouth, walked to the table and sat down angrily, reaching out to grab the fruit plate, but Yun Zhu reached out to open it. ...,"Sister Yunzhu likes to say these discouraging words, man...... Hmph, anyway, Sister Yunzhu always has a good man who likes it. By the way, I heard a few days ago that Gu Yanzhen came back in March, pursuing Sister Yunzhu and helping Sister Yunzhu sell Songhua eggs, but she was slapped by Sister Yunzhu on the street and lost face...... Gu Yanzhen, she is in high school, she has an official position, she has returned to her hometown, and she still has money, Jin'er wants to marry this kind of man, and Sister Yunzhu doesn't know how to be blessed in the blessings. ”

Yunzhu laughed: "Jin'er, you also said it, man...... In this way, isn't it the same for me, can't I find someone who is willing to marry, if Jin'er is really willing to marry, can't a man like Gu Yanzhen really find it? ”

"But I don't like it, maybe Gu Yanzhen is a good man......" Yuan Jin'er was joking, but at this time she shrugged her shoulders slightly, found a melon seed in the corner of the table, and secretly peeled it off and threw it into her mouth, "That...... What about Sister Yunzhu's talented son of Liheng, isn't she willing to marry? ”。

Yunzhu took a coat and threw it on her face, and said with a smile: "Don't talk nonsense about this, I don't want this name, Liheng is a family person, don't slander people's innocence." ”

"Zhilu Dao, Zhilu Dao, Sister Yunzhu, you protect him." Yuan Jin'er took her clothes off her face and muttered, "Sister Yunzhu, didn't you say that he would go too, and when he was introduced, Jin'er would go to seduce him and see what kind of character he was." Hmph, wait until his wife knows the truth, although it is good to call someone to Jinfeng Lou to beat me to death, Jin'er fights with her, but it depends on who can beat whom...... Maybe Sister Yunzhu will be able to fly away with him in the future, and live and live together......"

"Full of ......"

"Hee-hee." Yuan Jin'er smiled, "Having said that, why did Sister Yunzhu beat that Gu Yanzhen that day, Jin'er just heard about it, but I don't know how it happened." ”

Nie Yunzhu thought for a while and took a deep breath: "He was indeed a humble gentleman, but it was too Meng Lang at that time, so I beat him...... He's not a bad guy, and it's probably hard to tell right from wrong in this matter, so don't talk about it. ”

Looking back, on the day he made his decision in March, he had a showdown with Gu Yanzhen when he saw him again, naturally he didn't say anything about Ning Yi or anything, but this time he refused very thoroughly. Gu Yanzhen was probably also a little flustered, said a lot of explicit words, and asked her if she had anything to do with her, and when she got to the end, she came over and grabbed her hand, she subconsciously slapped her at the time, and then washed her hands many times, and felt still a little disgusted.

At that time, he was on the street, there were a lot of pedestrians, and Gu Yanzhen also had a friend, this slap was not heavy, but it also stunned him, and he didn't come over to entangle him again. It's just that Gu Yanzhen's propaganda was too high-profile before, and then the slap spread within a certain range, I didn't expect even Jin'er to know about it, this kind of thing is something that Nie Yunzhu doesn't want to see, although she is a little annoyed by Meng Lang's pull, but the gentleman broke off the friendship and didn't speak badly, she naturally didn't want to see this rumor deepen at this time, tarnishing the other party's reputation.

Yuan Jin'er probably understood her thoughts, and nodded with a smile at this time: "However, that Gu Gongzi will also go tonight, Sister Yunzhu...... No, what if Brother Yunzhu is seen by him? ”

Yunzhu smiled: "I'm all black, I will only hide in the dark at that time, who can really recognize me, this time I will only go to cheer for Jin'er, and other people don't want to touch." ”

"Huh? What about Ning Gongzi? ”

There was a slight silence, and after a moment......

"Jin'er is wrong, Sister Yunzhu spares her life-"

The sound of begging for mercy came faintly from the courtyard, mixed with the laughter of silver bells, and the yellow of the setting sun gradually rose from the west.

On the other side, on the bank of the Qinhuai River, Qin Lao put away the chess stall, and with the help of Ning Yi and Xiaochan, no one put anything in the direction of going home. Qin Lao invited Ning Yi to eat at home, and everyone was familiar with each other anyway, so there was no need to excuse himself too much. After dinner, Qin Lao and the two ladies in his family, Ning Yi and Xiaochan walked together to the side of the avenue, the color of the sunset was magnificent, Ning Yi and Qin Lao talked in front, but the rear looked like three women in a family of three generations, Xiaochan was still young, and the second lady Yun Niang, who was born as a famous person, said something to tease her, making the little girl red-faced, and the eldest lady of the Qin family was kind and watching. …,

The sound of gongs, drums and music was already ringing in the streets, and some processions passed by from time to time. Qin Lao smiled and said to Ning Yi: "If you see Ming Yun, say hello to him." "Although he didn't go today, he went to the dragon boat race on the fifth day of the first month, and the Oiran was selected, and he would probably take his family to join in the fun, and then there was a team on the road, and everyone stood on the side of the road, which was the prefect's dependence, a large number of sergeants followed, and the prefect of Jiangning rode on a horse, and when he passed from here, he probably saw Qin Lao, and even saluted this side, Qin Lao was considered a commoner at this time, and he also replied with a courtesy, and then tilted his head to Ning Yi, and signaled with a smile:

"A few days ago, you asked the commander Song Xian, at this time, Cheng Yong, the commander of the martial army, and Song Xian, the commander of the martial army, are all here, huh."

In the team, the two people walking behind the prefect on horseback inadvertently seemed to be looking this way, Cheng Yong was slightly fat, looking at the crowd on both sides of the road, smiling. Song Xian's eyes were cold and serious, and he was quite imposing. Ning Yi smiled, in fact, after inquiring some time ago, this Song Xian had already "met" him on the street a few times, and for him, he had already known him. But Yuan Xi has passed, and it is useless to know what he looks like.

The group parted at the crossing in front of them, Qin Lao went home, and Ning Yi and Xiaochan walked out of the city in the magnificent sunset. At this time, the sound of silk and bamboo, gongs, drums and firecrackers in Jiangning City has sounded, the colorful silk on the painting boat on the Qinhuai River is displayed, lined up in a long column, and the floats on the road in the city are surrounded by people and gongs and drums, and with the torches and lanterns gathering mightily in the city, they are spreading to this side............
