Chapter One Hundred and One

She believes in the oath made by Ah Zheng, and also believes in Ah Zheng's ability, Ah Zheng will definitely live, and no one can kill him.

So does it mean that she can live forever?

Ah Zheng looked at her who was troubled, and persuaded: "Actually, you don't have to force yourself like this, if you are really embarrassed, destroy it as if it never existed." Since your grandfather didn't let your father inherit the mulberry garden back then, it means that in your grandfather's heart, the younger generations only need to keep the small family and be safe for the rest of their lives. If he has a spirit in heaven, he must not want to see you embarrassed. ”

She couldn't help but be a little ashamed and said, "But...... I can't bear to ......"

She understands that it is human nature to pursue profit, but she will still feel ashamed of her fame and fortune, and whisper in shame with red ears: "I am reluctant to let go of such a good opportunity." Once we have created the Sacred Silk, we are the world's leading craftsmen. What a glorious glory it was, and I really wanted that glory and glory. ”

Ah Zheng just blinked his eyes, and then asked without hesitation: "Then are you ready to go to the risk for it?" ”

She thought for a while, took a deep breath, and said, "I understand the truth that only by giving can I get, and I am willing to take a risk." ”

"Then you put it away. In the future, if someone comes to you to steal this thing, or someone comes to bully you, as long as I have a breath, you will be fine. Ah Zheng said it very naturally, and he had no intention of persuading her to be indifferent to fame and fortune.

She was stunned for a moment, and then rushed out: "Why are you so good to me?" ”

Ah Zheng just replied naturally and righteously: "I am the work of the Ning family, and it is natural to be loyal to the master." ”

How can anyone be a cow or a horse like this for the sake of loyalty to the master? She is not Ning Wangping, who is highly respected and has her own subordinates to follow, she is just a fledgling little girl who is difficult to run a family.

Since Ah Zheng is willing to be by her side in her most difficult time, if she can get ahead one day in the future, she will definitely not forget this affection that arises from the end of the world.

At this moment, Cuiyu hurriedly walked in, and was about to speak, when she suddenly saw Ningxia Qing, whose ears and eyes were red, and who was rarely so fragile, and Ah Zheng, who was squatting in front of Ningxia Qing, and Ah Zheng, who was squatting in front of Ningxia Qing, Cuiyu couldn't help but be stunned, and forgot what she wanted to say.

Seeing Cuiyu come in, Ah Zheng immediately got up and stood behind Ning Ningqing's seat, Ningxia Qing raised his hand to wipe his tears, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

“…… Oh! Cuiyu came back to her senses and said, "Tan Ye is here." ”

Ning Xia Qing was stunned and couldn't help asking, "Why is Tan Ye here?" When was this? ”

Ah Zheng replied: "It was not long ago, he was going to come directly to the front hall, and when the old shopkeeper was here, Steward Tan came here directly. But Li Kou hadn't left at that time, so I said you still have something to do, and let him wait in the shop. ”

Ningxia Qing breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately Ah Zheng stopped Tan Wenshi, otherwise Tan Wenshi would definitely bump into Li Kou. She asked, "Did Tan Ye say something?" ”

Cuiyu thought for a while and said, "Tan Ye said that he wanted to talk to the girl about a deal, but he briefly mentioned one or two sentences, but I didn't understand it...... The girl also knows that I don't know much about business......"

Ning Xia Qing frowned slightly and asked, "Is he here for himself, or for the third master?" ”

Cuiyu replied: "It seems that he came for himself, and he didn't bring the other stewards of the third master with him." ”

Ningxia Qingqi ordered: "Let him come in." ”

Jade went to hire someone. Ning Xia Qing couldn't help but have doubts, the bench that Li Kou had sat on was still hot, and Tan Wenshi came, if it was a coincidence, would it be too coincidental?

Could it be that Tan Wenshi really knew about this half of the fragment? Could it be that Tan Wenshi came here because of this incident?

If Tan Wenshi really knew about this, then in his previous life, when he married Ning Xia Qing, in addition to plotting to seize the family property left by Ning Yongda, and wanting to use these to control the core of the Ning family, would he also have the intention of asking Ning Wangping from Ning Xia Qing to leave this note?

If Tan Wenshi really knew about this, then how did he know? The only person who knows about this is the real murderer back then, could it be that the real murderer and Tan Wenshi are complicit?

Because Ning Wangping had already noticed it and made such an arrangement, the real murderer didn't grab this notebook from Ning Wangping back then. Could it be that the real murderer has not died in the past ten years, so he conspired with Tan Wenshi to trap Ning Yongda and Ning Ningqing?

In his previous life, Tan Wenshi relied on the industry left by Ning Yongda and the contacts accumulated under Master Ning San for many years, and rose to prominence, extremely glorious, and became a pivotal figure in the Ning family. Is it really just because Tan Wenshi can calculate? Will someone be behind the scenes, and will Tan Wenshi be just a chess piece on the table?

Did the countless pairs of black hands that she couldn't see already control Ning Yongda's life and her current life?

The more she thought about it, the more she felt a chill down her spine, and Cuiyu had already led Tan Wenshi to the door of the front hall, and Cuiyu walked to the door, and couldn't help but stagnate.

Tan Wenshi had also discovered what Jade had discovered, Tan Wenshi looked at the cup placed next to the main seat and side head, and asked meaningfully, "Did Miss Ning have any guests before?" ”

Ning Ningqing glanced at it, and saw that there were still a few remnants of tea leaves in the cyan cup, and there were a few circles of tea stains on the edge of the cup, as if to prove that someone was indeed here just now, which made her feel shocked!

To be honest, the impact she had just received was so great that she didn't notice it for a while and ignored it! Before she could speak, Ah Zheng stepped forward, and while cleaning up the teacups that Ning Ning Qing and Li Kou had just used, she said calmly: "Just now I came to inform the girl that Steward Tan was here, and the girl asked me a few words by the way, but I didn't expect to talk for a long time, so the girl asked me to sit down and drink tea." ”

Ningxia Qing was slightly stunned, Ah Zheng had already put the two used teacups on the tray, and before taking the tray, Ah Zheng walked in front of Ningxia Qing again, and said with a smile: "If the girl refuses to return this chess book, Uncle Gu Feng will blame me." ”

Ningxia Qing looked at Ah Zheng in surprise, Ah Zheng had already reached out and pulled out the half of the notebook that was half wrapped in a cloth bag from her hand. Ning Xia Qing reacted now, let go of his hand, and Ren Azheng took the notebook away, wrapped it and put it away.

Tan Wenshi's eyes didn't seem to look at them, but he seemed to have everything in his eyes, and said leisurely: "I don't know, it turns out that Miss Ning still loves chess." I don't know what kind of rare chess game it is, but it actually made Miss Ning and the guys at home fight for it, it must be a masterpiece, I don't know if it can be for me to watch? ”

Ah Zheng replied with a smile: "It's a little embarrassing to say, this is not everyone's work, I really can't do it." In fact, when I was playing chess with Uncle Gu Feng, sometimes I would meet guests or merchants who came to the door, and the chess game had to be suspended, and the man's residence was narrow, and there was no special place to store the unfinished chessboard, so Uncle Gu Feng wrote down the chess game to facilitate the continuation next time. ”

Ah Zheng said flatly: "Because the record was in a hurry, the words on it were crooked, and no one could understand it except me and Uncle Gu Feng." It's true that my girl is not good at chess, but she is just interested in it and rushing to play with me. ”

"Since that's the case, then I won't watch it." Tan Wenshi smiled and stopped insisting.

Ah Zheng also smiled, and then went out with the remnants and the tray.

As soon as Ah Zheng left, Tan Wenshi looked at Ning Ningqing with a smile, and suddenly said leisurely: "I didn't expect Miss Ning to be so approachable." ”

Ning Ningqing frowned and asked vigilantly: "What does Tan Ye mean by this?" ”

Tan Wenshi's words have a deep meaning: "It's just a casual conversation with the guys at home, and Miss Ning will give a seat and tea." ”

Cuiyu took a new teacup for Ning Xia Qing and Tan Wenshi and poured water, and said without thinking: "Our girl has always been like this!" Any delicious and useful food will be distributed to us subordinates, and we are not treated as outsiders at all, we are just like the girl's family! ”

Cuiyu added meaninglessly: "Our girl is kind by nature. It's not like some girls who eat other people's, wear other people's, and spend other people's, but they are still calculating people behind their backs, and they still think how smart they are! Cuiyu said and became angry: "This kind of person is really cheap!" ”

Tan Wenshi was stunned by Cuiyu's words. However, Ningxia Qing knew why Cuiyu said this, Cuiyu was because she had overheard Tan Wenshi and Du Qiutong talking, so she was very resentful of Du Qiutong, and she seized the opportunity to say a few words. Ning Xia Qing actually wanted to laugh a little in his heart, but he still gestured to Jade with his eyes. Cuiyu reacted and immediately said, "I'm sorry Tan Ye, I lost my words." ”

"It doesn't matter." Tan Wenshi waved his hand.

Cuiyu's face turned red and said, "When I mention my girl, I can't help but talk more." Anyway...... Anyway, in my heart, no one can compare to my girl. ”

Tan Wenshi smiled slightly: "You are not wrong, it is the luck of your girl to have such a loyal servant, and it can also be seen that your girl is indeed a generous person." Besides......" He looked at Ning Xia Qing and said, "In my eyes, Miss Ning is indeed unmatched." ”

Ning Xia Qing said modestly: "It's ridiculous." Then he picked up the cup and drank tea, and did not pick up Tan Wenshi's gaze.

However, Cuiyu glanced at Tan Wenshi, and then at Ning Xia Qing, a little dissatisfied, and stood forward slightly by pouring tea, blocking Tan Wenshi's burning gaze at Ning Xia Qing. And Ningxia Qing knew that Cuiyu still had family affairs to be busy today, so she let Cuiyu go down first, and Cuiyu had to leave with a sad face, leaving Ningxia Qing alone in the front hall to entertain guests.

After there were only two people left in the front hall, Tan Wenshi couldn't help but look at Ning Ningqing, only to see that she didn't apply powder on her face, but she still couldn't hide her stunning appearance.

Her eyes were watery, but with the coldness of talking, she seemed to be able to see through everything. The ten fingers of the teacup are delicate, the skin is like clotted fat, and the snow white is pink, and it seems to be able to wring out water. A pair of red lips, can smile like a smile, but always speak alienated. She sat not far from Tan Wenshi, and seemed to exude a faint and elegant fragrance.

In the past, she was like an orchid, gentle and gentle, after experiencing these recent events, she is still as beautiful as yesterday, but she is more pure and elegant than before, and there is a majestic demeanor in the ice and snow dust.

While drinking tea, Ning Xia Qing couldn't help but feel bored-

This is his former husband, and now he is someone else's husband.

She thought that when the guests of Tan Mansion were happy, when the gongs and drums were Yan Yan, he and Xue Qianqian concluded a 100-year-old relationship, and at that time, there must have been two strings of lanterns written on the door of Tan Mansion with the words "Jia Puppet Tiancheng Colorful Thread, Lady Fairy Worship Jade Hall".

She thought, under the red candle, when their bed was full of spring, Xue Qianqian, as a woman, must be shy and ashamed.

But Tan Wenshi must have coaxed Xue Qianqian well, anyway, he has always been the best at pleasing women, and there have never been a few women who keep him in mind, and Ningxia Qing has always known it.

As the so-called life events, marriage is the most important event in life.

And the red candle between her and Tan Wenshi has burned to the bottom, and the firelight is gradually better than nothing, leaving behind the ashes after burning, and the bitterness and cruelty of this world are exhausted.

Ning Xia Qing couldn't help sighing, put down the teacup, and said leisurely: "Speaking of which, Tan Ye has been waiting for a long time, right?" Originally, Ah Zheng came to report, but I didn't expect me to talk to him, so I forgot the time, and delayed Tan Ye a lot of work, I'm really sorry. ”

Tan Wenshi hurriedly said: "I was uninvited, Miss Ning is not surprised." ”

Ning Ningqing pulled a smile without warmth: "Naturally not." It's just that I don't know, why did Tan Ye come today? Listening to Cuiyu, Tan Ye wants to do business with me? ”

Tan Wenshi said gently and calmly: "Exactly." However, I have one more thing to say, I want to ask Miss Ning, now that Miss Ning has officially taken over the family business, is there still a shortage of people around her? ”

The more Tan Wenshi looked like this, the more complicated her mood became, and she couldn't help but feel cold, and asked indifferently: "Why did Tan Ye say this?" ”

Tan Wenshi's eyes were still burning: "Miss Ning does have a few capable guys in her family, but Miss Ning is a daughter after all, and she must pay attention to avoiding suspicion many times, and she is definitely not as close as the ordinary owner and the guy." In fact, it's not that there is no good way, since Miss Ning wants to avoid suspicion with her guys, it is better to recruit a woman to help. ”

She didn't know what was wrong, she couldn't help but want to lose her temper with Tan Wenshi, so she could only tell herself in her heart over and over again to be cautious. She said sarcastically: "It turns out that Tan Ye came here today to bring me together." ”

Tan Wenshi naturally sensed Ning Ningqing's coldness, and couldn't help frowning slightly, and said more gently: "I also know that Cuiyu has been with Miss Ning for many years, and the master and servant have a deep affection. But Cuiyu doesn't know much about business, and sometimes she can't help Miss Ning. So I did find a suitable one for Miss Ning, a distant relative of the fifth old lady......"

Tan Wenshi didn't even finish speaking, Ning Xia Qing had already glanced obliquely at a rather meaningful gaze, and interrupted coldly: "Don't bother Tan Ye, I won't recruit people." ”

Tan Wenshi was a little embarrassed: "Miss Ning refuses to recruit people, and she works hard in everything, isn't she tired of herself?" ”

"Thank you Tan Ye for your kindness." She replied indifferently, emphasizing the word "beauty", how smart Tan Wenshi is, how can she not hear her rejection of herself? She put on a non-negotiable attitude, and asked a little arrogantly while sipping the tea cup, "Isn't Master Tan here to discuss business?" Let's talk. ”

Rao is so arrogant that Tan Wenshi still didn't have any displeasure on his face, and even more sad and melancholy in his eyes, and said a little gloomily: "Actually...... Actually, it's not a big deal. ”

Tan Wenshi returned to his usual expression, and came one by one: "It's me that there is something wrong, I have already signed a contract with a buyer, and the delivery is about to be delivered, but the ship carrying the goods has encountered a spot check by the government, you may also know that the government will check one or two merchant ships from time to time because it wants to catch the sale of illegal salt, and my ship will be delayed like this." ”

Ning Xia Qing already understood what Tan Wenshi meant, and asked, "So Tan Ye is planning to find a batch of materials to deliver in an emergency?" ”

"yes."

Ning Xia Qing couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and said with some amusement: "If Tan Ye is in a hurry to ask for this batch of goods, he should naturally go to find a place with a large scale and a lot of inventory, why bother to come to me?" Hua Caiyuan is a small shop, and there are not many styles of materials, isn't it easy for Tan Ye to run for nothing? ”

"Miss Ning, that's right." Tan Wenshi said meaningfully: "I remember that Miao Laosan's shop has this batch of materials, so I originally planned to go to the shopkeeper Miao." But I remembered that I saw this batch of materials yesterday in Hua Cai Yuan. In this case, instead of taking care of the business of the shopkeeper Miao, I am naturally more willing to take care of Miss Ning's business. ”

"Taking care of my business? Then I don't know what material Tan Ye wants? And what price can it give? ”

Tan Wenshi replied blandly: "Fifty horses of snow forest hibiscus silk." As for the price, whatever price the buyer offers, I will give Miss Ning whatever price as it is, and I will never make an extra silver or two from it. In the entire Meigong County, the selling price of Xuelin hibiscus silk will only be lower than this, not higher than this. Miss Ning helped me save this emergency, and I definitely didn't lose anything. ”

Ning Xia Qing wanted to laugh a little, what is the urgency to save, when she is a three-year-old child, is she cheating?

It is true that the government strictly investigates the sale of illegal salt, but it will not delay the cargo ship for too long, let alone the deadline for Tan Wenshi's delivery. Tan Wenshi won't not understand this, is he trying to bluff her into not understanding? Or does Tan Wenshi just want to let her hear it clearly, and he just made up reasons to buy material from her?

Besides, even if it is really delayed, with Tan Wenshi's connections and means, it is not difficult to make the buyer wait for an extra day or two. But Tan Wenshi looked for another source of goods, so when the goods on the ship arrived, wouldn't they be smashed into his hands again? Could Tan Wenshi be so stupid? It's nothing more than making up an excuse and exposing the horse's feet to Ningxia Qing.

He also specifically mentioned Miao Laosan, which was to tell her that Tan Wenshi knew about snatching material from Miao Laosan before. With Tan Wenshi's ability, it was easy for her to spit out this batch of materials and return it to Miao Laosan, but Tan Wenshi did not oppose her, and Tan Wenshi let her act like this.

Hmph, she just got sixty horses of hibiscus silk from Miao Laosan, five of them were sold yesterday, and there were fifty-five horses left in the shop, and Tan Wenshi asked for fifty horses as soon as she opened her mouth, which made her know even more that with Tan Wenshi's connections and experience, every horse in her shop could not hide from Tan Wenshi's eyes, but Tan Wenshi did not want to make a fuss about it, but did his best to help her.

She couldn't help but feel a little loose in her heart, how many women could not be moved by such a nuanced tenderness?

In her previous life, this is how she fell.

When she first married Tan Wenshi, on cold winter nights, Tan Wenshi would often suddenly take her hand to warm her. Many times, she didn't realize how cold her hands were, but Tan Wenshi knew it just by looking at it.

She didn't understand for a while, how did Tan Wenshi know? In the years when they were together, she was like this, little by little by this kind of attention and care that fell to the smallest details.

As soon as she thought of this, her heart hardened in a blink of an eye.

Tan Wenshi has already married a wife, even if he does not marry a wife, Tan Wenshi is also an enemy she must regard as a mortal enemy.

The more gentle Tan Wenshi is on the surface, the more stabbing the knife behind this gentleness becomes.

She pinched her palm, her tone finally regained her composure, and she smiled softly and said, "I do have these materials here." Since Tan Ye spoke, I naturally don't mind. ”

"Thank you, Miss Ning." Tan Wenshi showed a very grateful expression, and touted Ningxia Qing as a salvation bodhisattva: "I'm so anxious that I don't know what to do, but fortunately Miss Ning helped me, I really don't know how to be grateful for this kindness." ”

"Tan Ye doesn't need to be polite. I think that back then, Tan Ye took care of his father's business a lot, and now I should do my best for Tan Ye within my ability. ”
