When it was time to visit Shen Kang every five days, Ji Ning took a carriage to visit Shen Kang in the morning as he did in the future.

When he entered the gate of the Mid-Mountain Residence, Ji Ning thought that he would still meet that brutal and strong tomboy, but he didn't expect it.

When he came out of Shen Kang's study and walked towards the door, he subconsciously slowed down.

However, until he walked out of the gate of the half-level residence, the tomboy still did not appear, let alone intercept him from the halfway point.

Approaching the carriage, before boarding the carriage, Ji Ning couldn't help but stop, turned his head and glanced back at the gate of the Mid-Mountain Residence, and thought in his heart: "Could it be that she was really hit by me and lost her self-confidence?" ”

"Alas, ashamed. In fact, she is just a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl. In short, it's me who bullies children. ”

"If you meet her again, it's okay to let her win once in a while."

"Young Master, what's wrong?" Yu Ling saw that Ji Ning didn't get into the carriage, but just turned his head to look at the courtyard gate, thoughtful.

Ji Ning came back to his senses and smiled lightly: "It's nothing." Let's go back to the college. ”

After speaking, Ji Ning boarded the carriage.

……

……

The day before the autumn trip, at noon, Tang Xie suddenly came to visit.

Ji Ning invited Tang Xie to the hall and sat down as the guest of honor.

After a few words of greeting, Tang Xie said: "Brother Ji, tomorrow's autumn tour is organized by everyone, and it costs a lot. ”

Then, he explained to Ji Ning the main cost items.

It turned out that the autumn outings were organized by sons and daughters with status, with a large number of people and large goals, which involved security issues.

Therefore, it is necessary to hire a trustworthy and martial arts guard, and it takes a sum of money.

The other is the cost of eating and drinking when traveling.

"There are already a lot of people who have made a big head, you can just take twenty or thirty taels of silver." Tang Xie finally said.

Ji Ning didn't want to take advantage of others, so he casually took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels and handed it to Tang Jie, saying, "This is mine, one hundred taels." ”

Tang Xie did not shirk to persuade Ji Ning to pay less silver taels, after all, in the autumn outing, the participants were all talented people with status and status, and most people did not want to be favored by others in vain.

After accepting Ji Ning's silver ticket, Tang Xie chatted with Ji Ning for a few words, and then said, "Tonight in Tianxianglou, Miss Liu will hold a banquet to play tunes." It is said that there is a song she wrote recently, which is very novel and beautiful. Brother Ji, are you interested in going with me to listen to it? ”

"Okay." Ji Ning said without thinking.

In fact, as early as the morning, Liu Rushi had already sent Xiaojuan to send him an invitation. He had promised Liu Ru to attend her banquet.

Tang Xie saw that Ji Ning deserved it, and couldn't help but pause.

However, he didn't think much about it, after all, Ji Ning had relented in the past few months, and he had heard that he was a frequent visitor to the major green buildings.

So, the two agreed to go to Tianxianglou together.

The two chatted about tea again, and Tang Xie had something to do after all, so he got up and said goodbye.

……

……

At dusk, after Ji Ning had a meal, he carried well water in the yard to water the flowers and plants planted in the yard.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the temperature begins to get cooler, but then the autumn is dry, and the flowers and plants planted in the yard have to be watered frequently.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Yu Ling, who was helping beside him, was about to open the door, but Ji Ning stopped and shouted while putting down the watering utensils: "Wait, you continue to water, I'll open the door." ”

He estimated that Tang Xie was here.

"No." Yu Ling answered, took the watering utensils and continued to water, while Ji Ning washed his hands and went to open the door.

The door opened, and sure enough, it was Tang Jie.

"Brother Ji." Tang Xie shouted.

Ji Ning also arched his hand and said, "Brother Tang." ”

Then, ask Don Xie to enter the door.

After entering the door, Ji Ning did not invite Tang Xie to the hall to entertain, but stood in the courtyard as a friend and talked.

The two chatted casually about tea kung fu, and then set off together to go to Tianxiang Building.

Arrive at the gate of Tianxianglou by carriage, get off the carriage, only to see in front of the gate of Tianxianglou, the traffic is busy, the door is like a city, so lively.

And look at Tianxiang Building again, only to see that all the buildings and pavilions in Tianxiang Building are brightly lit, lively and extraordinary, like a bazaar.

It was the first time that Ji Ning had seen the grand scene of the ancient Qinglou at night, and he couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.

"Hehe, there were many people in Tianxianglou before, and since Liu Ru won the Oiran, the number of customers has more than doubled." Tang Xie walked over and said casually, thinking that Ji Ning had not been in Tianxianglou for a long time, and he didn't know the recent situation of Tianxianglou.

Ji Ning nodded.

Tang Xie said again: "Especially Liu Ru is a girl, and there are countless people who ask to see her every day. Liu Ru is girl holds a banquet once every two to three days, and selects a small number of customers with the most sincerity to entertain. For example, at tonight's banquet, I gave Miss Liu a lot of gifts to be seated. ”

"It's Brother Ji, as soon as I went into Tianxianglou at noon today, they immediately agreed." At the end, he said to Ji Ning enviously.

Ji Ning smiled lightly and said: "I'm ashamed, maybe Tianxianglou is like this for the sake of that poem." ”

The two were talking, preparing to enter the Tianxiang Building.

At this time, a two-horse luxury carriage went on a rampage and drove domineeringly in front of the gate of Tianxianglou, causing a lot of commotion.

It's just that the carriage is magnificent, and even the coachman is well-dressed and has a bulging belly. Everyone expected that the owner of the carriage was noble, and they did not dare to conflict with it, so they could only endure it.

Although Ji Ning and Tang Xie were not affected, they couldn't help but turn their heads to look over when they saw the commotion.

I saw that the two-horse luxury carriage stopped, and a young man in a brocade robe jumped out of the carriage.

It's Zhang Linwu.

Tang Xie saw that it was Zhang Linwu, so he said to Ji Ning: "It's Zhang Linwu." Now that we've met, let's go over and say hello. ”

"There you go. I'm waiting for you here. Ji Ning said lightly.

When Tang Xie heard this, he suddenly remembered that at Liu Ruye's Oiran celebration banquet, there was a faint difficulty between Ji Ning and Zhang Linwu.

He immediately said: "Hehe, since Brother Ji doesn't want to go over, then I won't go either." Let's go inside. ”

"Hmm." Ji Ning answered, turned around and walked towards Tianxiang Building.

Tang Xie followed.

And just as Ji Ning and Tang Xie didn't take two steps into Tianxiang Building, a two-point arrogant shout came from behind: "Haha, Ji Ning, Tang Jie, why did you see an acquaintance without saying hello, turn around and leave?" ”

It was Zhang Linwu's voice.

Ji Ning and Tang Xie had no choice but to stop and turn to face Zhang Linwu, who was already walking towards them.

"Haha, it turned out to be Zhang Gongzi." Tang Xie laughed loudly, as if he had just discovered Zhang Linwu, "There are many people here and noisy, Tang and Brother Ji didn't find you for a while, don't be surprised." ”

Ji Ning didn't speak, and lightly bowed his hand to Zhang Linwu as a response.

Zhang Linwu walked over with a smile on his face, and when he saw Ji Ning arching his hand, he also arched his hand in response, but looking at Ji Ning's gaze, disgust and vigilance flashed.

However, Ji Ning just happened to see it.
