Chapter 172: Lips and Eyebrows (9)

The distant mountains are still the distant mountains, with a few fallen leaves, and a few emerald green and evergreen.

Wang Ning grabbed the carriage, jumped off the car, and hurriedly went to help the handlebar that fell to the ground, muttering that it was okay.

The handlebar stood up, was confused for a moment, and immediately bowed to Wang Ning next to him and said, "Childe, are you okay?"

He is just a small person, he must not dare to offend people, even if he falls and is injured now, he does not dare to let the patron next to him have an accident.

Wang Ning patted the other party's shoulder and said, "It's okay, it's okay...... Are you okay? ”

"The little one is fine."

The two people who seemed to want to be familiar exchanged pleasantries for a while before stopping. looked around, but saw that the white shadow that was still on the road in front of him was no longer there at this time, and the two people who reacted looked at the empty road in surprise and glanced at each other.

Wang Ning smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "What did you bump into that?"

The handlebar shivered for a moment, and his face was ugly: "Childe, you don't have to scare the little ones."

Wang Ning turned around and climbed into the carriage, and by the way, he called the handlebar style who was still in a daze.

The carriage soon began to move again, perhaps also frightened the horse just now, and it was a little bumpy at this time.

Wang Ning didn't speak, and sat back in the carriage. He really saw the scene just now, there was something strange in his heart, his thoughts extended to a long time ago, and the stories that had been buried for a long time in the long river of memories resurfaced in his mind again.

He clenched his fists, his mood stirring.

It didn't take long for the carriage to arrive at the manor outside the city, and after autumn, the rice had already begun to be harvested here, and there were many busy figures in the fields, and even most of the craftsmen who had helped Wang Ning build the house had returned home, so it could be said that his manor had stopped working again.

In the school at the foot of the mountain, Wang Ning found Shen Jing who was looking at the drawings. Since the academy was built, Shen Jing had moved in to work, and most of his thoughts were also on this side, mostly about improving the academy.

As for the manor halfway up the mountainside, since most of the main body was built, he threw the matter to a few subordinates and ignored it anymore, and the only thing he personally asked about was to report to Wang Ning and ask for money.

When Wang Ning walked in, he was looking at something intently behind the bookcase, and from time to time he picked up a pen and wrote something on the rice paper next to him.

Wang Ning coughed the two, Shen Jing didn't look at him, he went to the hall and found a seat and sat down, quietly waiting for Shen Jing to find him.

Not long after, when Shen Jing finally found him and looked at him, no matter how calm Wang Ning was, he couldn't bear it anymore.

He stood up and interrupted Shen Jing halfway through what he said, and said coldly: "Young Master Ben admits that you have some skills, but I am afraid that it is a little inappropriate to be so arrogant, no matter how you say that I am your employer."

Shen Jing was slightly surprised, and then laughed, and didn't seem to care about Wang Ning's angry look: "Childe, I'm afraid it's a misunderstanding!"

Wang Ning snorted coldly: "I've come all the way, this academy is in good order, but my house is still not the same, Mr. Shen, although I recognize that this academy is very important, but my original intention is just to take in a few children, enlighten or something......

Shen Jing listened to Wang Ning's boastful talk with great interest, with a dead pig's face that was not afraid of boiling water, Wang Ning sprayed spittle for a long time, and finally could only reluctantly close his mouth and get down to business: "Regarding the matter of the library building, I talked to the prefect's yamen, and they agreed with you, but as a price, I have to raise horses for them." Search

Wang Ning said and pointed outside the door, although he couldn't see much area outside, he knew that Shen Jing could understand, and then said: "It's on the mountain next to it, and a notice will be posted in a few days, and it will be used as a Jiangning Horse Farm."

Shen Jing was stunned for a moment, first thanked him respectfully for his help, and then said about the matter of the racecourse: "The imperial court is implementing a new law, and this is indeed irresistible to us. But Childe might as well think about it from another angle, this academy is up, and students will enter the career in the future, which is a good thing for you. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the imperial court has strictly forbidden the private publication of books, and now it can get the support of the government, which is beneficial and harmless for the academy. ”

Wang Ning glared at him, he knew that the person in front of him was actually famous, but because he hated the unhealthy atmosphere of the current officialdom, he resigned and returned to his hometown.

Wang Ning sighed, she hated the hypocrisy of these literati the most, she obviously didn't like to leave it alone, but she didn't give up, and gradually tossed.

From a certain point of view, he also had some sympathy for people like Shen Jing, so he didn't care about it anymore.

"I know, this academy will be handed over to you in the future, but I am a businessman, originally all I wanted was to make a primary school hall and give a few poor children to read and write, but now that you have made it so big, I will not do a loss-making business...... That is, beyond what you said, I want to see something more substantial. ”

Shen Jing bowed down and said solemnly: "But according to the orders of the son."

"Well, come and discuss with me after the specific details, there is only one thing now, and that is my garden, and I will be married in a few months."

Shen Jing nodded again: "It will definitely be completed then."

"I hope it's as you say."

This conversation was not pleasant, but they had already set their own bottom lines, and it would be difficult for anything else to change in the future.

Shen Jing watched Wang Ning leave, feeling a little weird, today's Wang Ning is completely strange to him, Wang Ning may be very angry because of something before, but not as tough as this time, when he guessed the other party's thoughts, he looked up at the manor in the middle of the mountain, and then walked up.

Wang Ning returned to the carriage, probably also noticed his abnormality, relieved for a while, and breathed a long sigh of relief, then called the coachman and drove back to the city.

The road was quiet, except for the sound of the wheels of the car crushing over the loess.

When he got home, he didn't do anything else, he went straight into the house, covered his head and slept.

When the night was getting dark, and the moon was in the woods, he climbed the wall and went out, and disappeared into the long street.

After a short time, he broke in in the small building by the Qinhuai River.

The woman was dressed in white and won the snow, and the moment the door was pushed open, the accompanying wind swept up her green silk.

She looked back at the person who came, as if she had expected it, so she didn't panic: "I knew you would come, but ...... It really has nothing to do with me. ”

"Now in my situation, I will never dare to exchange your news for benefits."

Wang Ning looked at her coldly and said in a deep voice, "But what did you say?"

The air was cold, and the wind was rushing.

The killing machine is now.
