Chapter 102: The Lion's Roar
Zhao Ling never dreamed that Fu Tingyun would appear in the Nian Bo Institute, let alone that Fu Tingyun would appear in front of him. His eyes widened, he couldn't believe what he was seeing, and it wasn't until Fu Tingyun walked towards him, his bright eyes staring at him coldly like the morning star in the sky, that he was sure that the person in front of him was really Fu Tingyun.
"You, why are you here?" He was surprised and delighted, and the handkerchief on his hand was like drops of water soaking through his clothes, and he didn't notice anything, "Who sent you?" Zheng San? Sam? What about Zheng Sanniang? Why didn't I come with you? He looked behind her.
Fu Tingyun didn't look at him, pushed his shoulders away, and looked around the inner room.
The yamen looks very old, but the furnishings in the house are very luxurious.
The official green Hangzhou silk curtain, the black lacquer furniture inlaid with snowflake dolomite, the turquoise bamboo mats, and the blue brick paving, are cool everywhere.
Zhao Ling was the only one in the room, the bedding was neatly folded, and there was only a white moonlight Songjiang Sanshuo cloth shirt on the black lacquer hanger, and the bronze flower and bird mirror was so empty that it looked a little monotonous. opened the wardrobe, except for a few official uniforms, which were summer shirts made by her.
Fu Tingyun felt a little better in his heart.
Zhao Ling was confused: "What's wrong?" ”
What's wrong?
I also want to ask you what's wrong?
Fu Tingyun only felt that anger burned in her heart again, she turned to face Zhao Ling, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the two women who had just set up dishes and chopsticks in the hall were crowding at the door of the inner room with shocked faces, looking at her with their mouths open.
Obviously, the scene just now fell into the eyes of the two of them.
Fu Tingyun's brows furrowed almost invisibly.
Her actions just now were quite reckless. Listening to Zhao Ming, these two women who served Zhao Ling were the wives of a hundred households, and thinking that she was also a person with status in the Nian Bo Institute, she went to Nian Bowei for the first time. left such an impression on these two people, if it spread, with their reputation, it would be a little bad for her reputation.
She smiled: "I was still worried that the ninth master would have a cold time here, but I didn't expect that there was something else in the house!" "I understand the truth in my heart, but I can't help but have a bit of ridicule in the words I say.
The two women couldn't help but look at each other.
The woman in front of her has better skin than snow and a noble temperament. In the anger, it is difficult to hide her elegant posture, and at first glance she is the daughter of a large family. She went through the inner room when she entered the door, but Zhao Baihu stood there stunned and looked at her, the expression on her face was happy and helpless. There was no irritation...... The two women were not stupid, on the contrary, they were very smart, otherwise, they would not have been chosen to serve Zhao Ling...... Fu Tingyun said something, and the two of them thought of the disrespect just now, and they were a little panicked in their hearts, and they shouted in unison: "Hundred households!" The voice had a faint hint of pleading.
In a rage, he turned the house over. Just because the furnishings in the house are too rich?
Zhao Ling felt that Fu Tingyun, who he knew, was not such a person. There must be a reason why she's like this. But no matter what the reason was, he didn't want the two women to be present, after all, Fu Tingyun would only make people who saw her for the first time think that she had a short temperament, and a short temperament. It is a ...... that has nothing to do with virtue and virtue He didn't want Fu Tingyun to be a moral disadvantage in front of her subordinate's wife.
"Go down!" He waved his hand grimly, "Put more dishes and chopsticks!" ”
The two women hurriedly bowed their heads and retreated.
If you put more dishes and chopsticks, who is the other pair? Can't three people still eat at the same table?
Fu Tingyun was so angry that he trembled, and only said after a while: "It turns out that the ninth master still has guests!" There was a bitterness in his tone that could not be misunderstood.
Zhao Ling is a very sharp person, and he is also a person who is very good at solving complex problems, in his opinion. Whether Fu Tingyun was angry at this time, or his words with guns and sticks, it was all because he was angry, as long as he found the reason for his anger, this matter would be solved.
He cut through the mess with a quick knife. Straight to the point: "You're furious, what the hell are you for?" ”
For what?
What do you say it is for?
Why don't you answer me who your guests are?
Fu Tingyun glared at him, his eyes burning, as if there was a fire burning: "Who is the guest of the Ninth Master?" ”
Her aggressive words made Zhao Ling frown slightly, he didn't know why she was so persistent, but he still said patiently: "Do you remember that I mentioned to you before, when I first debuted, a person named Tang Daishan once helped me." ”
How could Fu Tingyun not remember.
Tang Daishan wanted to invite Zhao Ling to Kyoto to find a way to get a permit for official salt, but she obstructed it in every possible way......
"He was killed two days before he was about to go to Kyoto, and the 100,000 taels of silver tickets he brought with him were gone," Zhao Ling's brows tightened, "The Feng family took the opportunity to seize his private salt business. Tang Daishan has only one daughter, Miss Tang is unable to support it, she came to me, hoping that I can come forward to be a middleman, the Tang family will never be involved in the private salt business again, and the Feng family will let the Tang family ...... from now on"
Fu Tingyun's heart rang with alarm bells.
Miss Tang?
That Miss Tang who borrowed Zhao Lingjian!
It turned out that the woman everyone was talking about was Miss Tang.
Not many people know about Zhao Ling's entry into the military, how did she know?
Or, has she been paying attention to Zhao Ling?
Xi'an Mansion is thousands of miles away from here, and Zhao Ling has already washed her hands, why did she ask Zhao Ling to come forward as an intermediary?
"The Ninth Master agreed?" She stared at Zhao Ling's eyes.
Zhao Ling had never seen such a sharp Fu Tingyun, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
This stunned caused Fu Tingyun's dissatisfaction: "The reason why the Tang family and the Feng family have a grudge is because of private salt. Since Tang Daishan only has one daughter, Miss Tang, and now that Miss Tang has decided to give up the private salt business, the grievances between the Tang family and the Feng family have been resolved, why do you need you as a middleman? ”
With Zhao Ling's ingenuity, can't he even think of this? Why hesitate? Or is it because it was Miss Tang who came to ask him to come forward?
"There are some things you don't know." Zhao Ling said, "The two families have been fighting for many years, not only because of grudges, but also about some homicides. It's not so easy to give up......"
"So, the ninth master has already promised Miss Tang to help the Tang and Feng families become middlemen?" Fu Tingyun asked with a solemn expression.
"No ......" Zhao Ling thought of Fu Tingyun's scheming at the beginning, and thought of the joy and joy of Yang Yucheng, Jin Yuanbao and others, and didn't want to get involved in it anymore.
"Then why is the Ninth Master hesitating?" Fu Tingyun immediately said, "Instead of dragging the mud and water to give people hope like this, it is better to refuse clearly, maybe people will find a more suitable middleman than you, you are like this." Not to help her, but to drag her down. ”
Zhao Ling also knew.
"It's just that when Master Tang was dying, he asked Miss Tang to come to me, hoping that I would help her get rid of the Feng family," he smiled bitterly, "The Tang family has been in the private salt business since the previous generation. The family has tens of millions of dollars, and Miss Tang has no brothers and sisters to help her......"
Fu Tingyun was furious.
Who in this world doesn't have the scriptures that are difficult to read, so Miss Tang is not unable to live, and you Zhao Ling are not Guanyin Bodhisattva who saves suffering, why did you suddenly become so compassionate? I think you had to strangle me to death at the beginning!
A gentle female voice sounded outside the door: "Ninth Master, I heard that you have a guest coming?" I wonder if I'll be able to see it easily? ”
can talk to Zhao Ling like this, Fu Tingyun doesn't have to guess to know. This is that Miss Tang.
Guest, okay, she's a guest now? What about Miss Tang? Could it be that the master is not successful?
Fu Tingyun looked at Zhao Ling.
Zhao Ling whispered to her, "It's Miss Tang", and hurriedly took a robe made by Fu Tingyun from the wardrobe and put it on.
Fu Tingyun looked at it and felt a lot more relaxed.
Who knew that Zhao Ling stood there in a blink of an eye, showing a gentle smile, like the quiet water and the hard stone. There is a kind of calmness and calmness that has been tempered by the years.
As if eating too much sugar, Fu Tingyun's heart suddenly felt sour.
Then she saw a beautiful woman walking in.
She wore a fallen ponytail, wore a white gauze shirt, bright eyes and snow skin, and a pair of eyebrows like Yuandai, which was beautiful and beautiful, which made people forget to see it.
I saw Fu Tingyun. A flash of amazement flashed in her eyes, but this amazement was quickly replaced by her bright smile: "This sister is so beautiful!" She said, looking at Zhao Ling, "I don't know who this is?" ”
Zhao Ling smiled: "This is Miss Fu!" ”
Miss Tang greeted her and called out to her affectionately: "Miss Fu! ”
Miss Fu!
He actually introduced her to Miss Tang as Miss Fu!
Fu Tingyun's lungs were about to explode.
It turns out that she is just Miss Fu!
Just like Miss Tang.
But one is called "Girl". One is called "Miss".
It's hateful that she's still looking forward to it...... She will be different in his heart!
She thought of the soft gaze he had when he looked at her in the bright moonlight of the Mid-Autumn Festival; She thought of the warmth of her wrapped in his fur jacket; She thought of his solemn promise when he handed over the title deed property to her; She thought of the sweet mood she felt when she thought of him; She thought of her sincere trepidation when she heard that he might be defeated; She thought of the three arrows that shot Feng Dahu...... Even so, she had to ask why he was treating her like this. Could it really be that all this is just her wishful thinking? Is it really just her self-righteousness?
Even if she loses completely, it is impossible for her to show her despair in front of this Miss Tang.
Fu Tingyun returned the salute to Miss Tang with a smile: "Miss Tang, I have heard the Ninth Master talk about you for a long time, but I didn't expect to see you here." When did Miss Tang come? Nian Bo is not the capital of Shaanxi compared to Xi'an, and Miss Tang can live in the habit? ”
A strange light flashed in Miss Tang's eyes.
The two women who served Zhao Ling were not missing her attention, and when Zhao Ling and Fu Tingyun were talking, she vaguely heard a few words, because she was afraid of being discovered by Zhao Ling, she didn't dare to listen more. But just these few words, she also heard that the Fu girl in front of her was obviously arguing with Zhao Ling, but in a blink of an eye, she was already smiling, and it could be seen that it was not a fuel-efficient lamp.
She smiled: "I've been here for a few days, and although the Nian Bo Institute is not as crowded as Xi'an Mansion, there is someone to take care of it, but it is more down-to-earth than living in Xi'an Mansion." ”
