Chapter 487: Xiao Nizi is going to the Lantern Festival
On the day of Shangyuan Festival, Ji Ning also got up very late, because he would read late in the evening, and he would feel that he didn't have much energy in the morning.
Because the main celebrations of the Shangyuan Festival will be at night, Ji Ning will not have much to do during the day, he will still stay at home to study, until it is almost night, and then go to meet Tang Xie and others at the meeting place.
"Young master, the capital is really bad, you need to fetch well water every time." Yu Ling got up to help Ji Ning fetch water, but the water had to be delivered to the house in a short time, otherwise the water would easily freeze outside, "But young master, why doesn't the well water freeze." ”
Ji Ning said with a smile while washing his hands: "Because the well water is groundwater, the temperature is relatively constant, unless the well water is very close to the surface layer, it is not easy to freeze, mainly keep the well edge warm!" ”
After washing his face and eating breakfast, Ji Ning prepared for a day of study.
He has already prepared some materials for exam preparation, some of which are still books sent by Li Xiu'er before, and after reading them, he feels that it will help him to a certain extent, and he is ready to review them again.
At noon, Ji Ning was still in the study, and Yu Ling ran in and said, "Young master, someone is looking for you outside, it's the previous nun!" ”
Because Ji Ning helped Jingxuan and others before, he didn't let Yuling and Lin Juan'er know the details, so the second daughter didn't know Jingxuan.
"Why did she come again, was she scolded by me again, she still doesn't know some things, and she has to come to the door again?" Ji Ning said, "Go out and talk about it, just say that I have been preparing for the exam for the past few days and have no time to meet, if he has something, let him ask another master!" ”
"Oh." Yu Ling's face was a little puzzled, and she muttered, "Is there any contradiction between the young master and the nun?" When it comes to nuns, the young master seems to be unhappy! ”
Ji Ning didn't care what the purpose of Shu'antang's people came, he just knew that he would just ignore Shu'antang's affairs.
After a long time, Yu Ling came back and said, "Young master, the nun hasn't left yet, saying that she has been waiting for you at the door, and she has sent a letter, can you take a look?" ”
Ji Ning frowned, took the letter, opened it and took a look, only to see that it was written in an unconventional font: "The poor nun knew that he had not been able to repay Ji Gongzi for his help to Shu'an Tang, so he specially came to thank him, since Ji Gongzi refused to let the poor nun enter, the poor nun wanted to go to the government in person in the future, give up Shu'an Tang, and take a few junior sisters to leave the Beijing Division, thank Ji Gongzi for his previous help." If there is a fate, see you in the future......"
When Ji Ning saw this, he already felt that Jingxuan was crazy.
actually chose to leave without asking for a reason, Ji Ning thought to himself: "Does this woman feel that there is still room to survive after leaving the capital?" ”
He continued to read, but saw that at the end he wrote: "...... Tomorrow, I want to invite Ji Gongzi to Nalan Mansion to talk about the exhibition of Shu'an Hall in detail, if Gongzi does not go, the poor nun will leave and leave, and please Gongzi must come, so that the poor nun can repay with all his heart! Tomorrow, at the end of the shift, Nalan Mansion will be on the line. ”
The final payment is "Shu'an Tang Jingxuan".
Ji Ning put down the letter and asked, "Is the nun gone?" ”
"I don't know, the slave goes out to have a look?" Yu Ling's little head didn't know what he was thinking, and said.
"No need, let her go, it's tomorrow anyway, just ignore her today. Yu Ling, you prepare, young master, I'm going out at night! Ji Ning said.
"Young Master, are you going out to participate in the Lantern Festival? Can you take a slave with you? The slave wants to go with you, too! Yu Ling said happily.
Ji Ning was a little embarrassed: "I went out today to make an appointment with Tang Gongzi and others, and I can't take you there!" ”
"Huh? Son...... The slave and maid also want to go, and Juan'er, childe, or else, the slave and Juan'er are dressed in men's clothes, pretending to be a little maid and following you, so it's okay not to talk, right? Yu Ling said aggrievedly.
This made Ji Ning a little embarrassed, he remembered that Tang Xie and the others were going to go to the Qinlou Chu Pavilion after participating in the Lantern Festival, and they had taken Yuling to it once before, but in general, it made him a little constrained, and this time he said that he couldn't take Yuling to that kind of Fengyue place.
Because this time, it is not a simple banquet, nor is it for the selection of oiran, but there will be some more direct activities, at least there will be girls who will come out to accompany the wine, and there will be warm fragrance.
Let Yu Ling see that kind of thing, he will always think about it, and he doesn't want to take his girlfriend to that kind of place.
"Don't do it, you better stay at home, and talk about it later when you have a chance!" After Ji Ning finished speaking, he saw Yu Ling's little face unhappy, he took out a tael of silver and said, "This is a little silver, you can buy snacks to eat!" ”
"Hmph, the master always treats the slave and the maid as a child, and the slave and the maid are not uncommon for any snacks, and the slave and the maid want to go to the lantern festival!"
Yu Ling was a little willful, and Ji Ning was used to giving her, and after speaking, she went to the backyard, and the whole person was still angry.
Ji Ning didn't plan to comfort Xiao Nizi, and he knew that he had wronged this little Nizi.
Yu Ling came to the capital for the first time in her life, I heard how lively the lanterns in the capital will be, Xiao Nizi must want to go out to see it, after all, Yu Ling likes lively and fun things very much, but Ji Ning has her own things after all, and it is impossible to accompany her.
……
……
In the afternoon, Yu Ling was still sullen, while Lin Juan'er's mood was much better.
Lin Juaner is originally from the capital, and she has participated in the lantern festival in the capital before, so she doesn't feel so novel.
Ji Ning said: "Juan'er, stay and take good care of your Sister Yuling, do you know?" She is not allowed to go out and run around, this girl is becoming more and more worry-free! ”
Ji Ning knew that Yu Ling was eavesdropping in the house, so he deliberately said it louder so that Yu Ling could hear it.
There was a significant sound on the door panel, and it was obvious that Yu Ling was very concerned about what Ji Ning was saying outside.
"Hmm." Lin Juan'er nodded stupidly.
Ji Ning said again: "If you dare to go out without my permission, you will leave the house by yourself, and don't come back in the future, I will come back at night after finishing things, I don't know when." Okay, you stay at home, there are prepared snacks when you are hungry, you can cook and eat by yourself, chicken, duck and fish you want to eat, and glutinous rice balls, just eat them yourself! ”
"Got it!" When Lin Juan'er heard that there was something delicious, she had long forgotten about other things.
And the rain spirit inside the door let out a "hum", obviously a little emotional.
Ji Ning shook his head helplessly, and went out from the main gate, Lin Yi had already driven the carriage over, and this time he also brought two brothers over.
"Master, these two, the taller one is my brother when he used to be a coolie, his name is Chen Qi, the master can call him Lao Qi, we all call him that. This fat one doesn't look tall, but he has a good body and bones, and he has a lot of strength in fighting, his name is Li 6, and the master can call him Xiaoliu! Lin Yi introduced.
