Chapter 625: Not a Friend
Xiao Jue was finally leaving, and Emperor Chen agreed to his request for transfer, and Old Man Xiao didn't even object to this.
On the day he set out with the recruited recruits, Tang Ning went out of the city to see him off.
Lu Ya stood beside him reluctantly, and Lu Ding, the secretary of the military department, looked at Xiao Jue's eyes, as if he was going to cut him with a thousand knives.
Two days ago, Xiao Jue had already made a marriage contract with Lu Ya, they got on the boat first and then bought tickets, raw rice was cooked and cooked, although Lu Ding was helpless, but his daughter destroyed the innocence of others, and had to push the boat down the river to accept the marriage.
Of course, Lu Ya's request to go with Xiao Jue was categorically rejected by Lu Ding, so there was the touching and tearful scene of the separation of the husband and wife in front of her.
Xiao Jue looked at Lu Ya, patted his chest, and said, "Don't worry, I'll be fine." ”
After that, he walked up to Tang Ning and said, "After I leave, you can help me take care of the Xiao family a little." ”
Although the Xiao family is in decline, it is not a soft persimmon to be kneaded, Tang Ning nodded, took out something from his arms and threw it to him.
Xiao Jue looked at a strange pendant in his hand and asked, "What is this?" ”
Tang Ning waved his hand and said, "Just think of it as a peace charm." ”
What Xiao Jue had in his hand was actually a wolf tooth pendant, which was a mortgage made by Wan Yan Yan owing him so much silver, Tang Ning thought that after Wan Yan Yan left, he would never need this thing again, and he hoped that Xiao Jue would not use it.
Xiao Jue put the pendant around his neck and said, "Thank you......"
"Not for you." Tang Ning glanced at him and said, "You have to pay me back when you come back." ”
Xiao Jue laughed, looked at the people who saw them off, and said loudly: "Lao Tzu will definitely come back!" ”
Lu Ding's face was dark, he slapped him on the head, and said angrily: "With whom Lao Tzu, with whom Lao Tzu......
……
Xiao Jue left and went to the grassland to pursue his dream, and Tang Ning no longer had a friend who could speak in Beijing.
Although he is usually a little verbose and stupid, but after he really left, Tang Ning felt that something was missing in his life.
Having three or two like-minded friends is naturally much more interesting than being alone.
In fact, except for Xiao Jue, he originally had other friends.
Tang Xiaoyao used to be his friend.
Li Tianlan used to be his friend.
Zhao Man used to be his friend.
Su Mei used to be his friend.
……
But that was before.
Tang Ning sighed, it turns out that you can't be friends between the opposite sex, he just wants a simple friend, is it so difficult?
For the sake of his body and for the sake of family harmony, he will never be friends with a woman again.
Although Xiao Jue left, Lu Ya often came to the Tang family.
She and Xiao Ru Xiaoyi had already been together, which made Tang Ning a little worried about whether they would be affected by Lu Ya, and after observing for a while, he found that the women did not seem to show signs of transforming towards her, so he was relieved.
In addition to Lu Ya, the county lord of Anyang is also very familiar with them, and Tang Ning has no ill feelings towards this courtesan with the most complicated relationship network between Jingshi.
Of course, the main reason is that when Zhao Manyuan married Chu Guo, her attitude towards Zhao Man's maintenance increased Tang Ning's favor towards her a lot.
Tang Ning didn't want them to learn from Lu Ya, and he also didn't want them to learn from the county lord of Anyang.
Because she has a cheerful personality and makes a lot of friends, both men and women. It's nothing to have such a friend, but it's not a face-saving thing to have such a wife.
The county lord of Anyang came over with Lu Ya today, and when he left, he handed over an invitation card and said: "Tomorrow night, Anyang will hold a banquet in the natural residence, and invite the talented son of Gyeonggi. ”
Tang Ning shook his head and said without thinking, "I'm not free tomorrow night." ”
The state test in the Gyeonggi region is about to begin, and it is customary for the county lord of Anyang to invite these prestigious talents to get together and expand their network, and Tang Ning was invited to do so back then.
However, he was not interested in this, and he was not so idle ...... he didn't practice with Su Mei in the evening, but went to some boring banquet.
The county lord of Anyang didn't think that he would refuse, and he didn't even make up a reason, but he still smiled and said: "Lord Tang think about it, the students of Jingshi respect you very much, and Lord Tang should be a ...... to support his friends."
Tang Ning was surprised: "Friend? ”
The county lord of Anyang looked at him and asked, "Aren't we friends?" ”
As a lesson from the past, Downing has already flipped in the same place four times, and will not flip a fifth time.
He looked at the county lord of Anyang and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, county lord, Tang has never been friends with the opposite sex." ”
"You!" The county lord of Anyang was stunned, his pretty face showed anger, and he said angrily: "Don't forget it!" ”
With that, she angrily shook her sleeves and left.
Tang Ning felt that he did the right thing this time, Jingshi coveted him too many women, and he couldn't give them any chance.
Not long after, Zhong Yi came over and asked suspiciously: "The county lord seems to be angry, what did Xianggong say to her?" ”
"She asked me to go to the banquet, and if I didn't go, she got angry." Tang Ning shook his head and said, "This woman's heart is too small......"
Zhong Yi said in disbelief: "The county lord is not like such a stingy person, is this really the case?" ”
Tang Ning thought for a while and said: "She also said that we are friends, let me give her this face, I said that I am a family person, not to be friends with other women, is this wrong?" ”
Zhong Yi looked at him in surprise and asked, "Is this really what Xianggong said?" ”
Tang Ning gave her a blank look and said, "Can I still lie to you?" ”
……
Without any warning, several ladies in the family suddenly became kind to him, when Tang Ning was reading in the study, he liked to help him pinch his shoulders, Su Mei helped him beat his legs, and Tang Xiaoxiao fed Su Ru's cooked soup to his mouth by hand......
This made Tang Ning extremely unaccustomed, and even a little frightened, there must be demons when things go wrong, and I usually don't see them so well-behaved and obedient.
Especially the four of them are well-behaved and obedient together.
As if thinking of something terrible, Tang Ning swallowed the soup, looked at them, and said: "I'm going to the Ministry of Industry tomorrow, I have to make some preparations in advance, I will read in the study tonight, you go to bed early, don't wait for me to ......"
……
Inside the county lord's mansion.
The county lord of Anyang lost his usual calmness and gentleness, looked at Tang Shui, and said angrily: "He actually didn't treat me as a friend, because I told him about Xiaoman at the beginning......"
Tang Shui looked at her and comforted: "Manjing is your friend, one more and one less, and there is nothing." ”
"No, I can't swallow that." The county lord of Anyang picked up the teacup, drank it all, and said with residual anger: "Since I was a child, I have never suffered such a grievance in Anyang!" ”
Tang Shui poured her a glass of water again and said, "Eliminate the gas and eliminate the ......."
The county lord of Anyang drank a glass of water again, and only then did he suppress the anger in his heart.
She has countless friends in Beijing, who is not polite when she sees her, Tang Ning is talented, and he is a saint, and he is the first person of the younger generation, but with her identity as the county lord, is she not worthy of being his friend?
He used to be just one of her many ordinary friends, but now, in her heart, Downing began to draw a line with the others.
He was the only one of them who dared to speak to her like that.
"I remember you!" The county lord of Anyang had a sinister face, gritted his silver teeth, and said: "This breath, this county lord will have to find it back sooner or later!" ”
