55. Divergence (I)
I saw that Wan Ning suddenly fell silent, and then smiled weirdly: "So, the last time he came to listen to the story, he actually ......" Then he raised his eyes and saw that Shuning and Boss Fan were looking at her, so he raised a smile and said: "I'm fine, I just thought of something interesting." β
Boss Fan nodded understandingly, handed the tea to her sisters, and went back to the counter. Shuning asked, "What's interesting?" Does it have anything to do with that Lord Chen? β
Wan Ning smiled and said, "Yes, I'm thinking about when I'm going to go to his house to have fun." β
Eldest sister, that's a stake, don't let your life go to waste.
However, Shuning still kindly told her the latest news: "Sister is going to Lord Chen's mansion?" But Lord Chen left the capital yesterday, and I'm going to see him off. Then I saw Wan Ning deflated with a disappointed face: "How is this?!" Forget it, I'll have to wait for him to come back. β
Shuning secretly snickered, and then remembered that it had been a while since they came out, so she said, "It's been so long since I came out, it's not good to leave only the eldest sister inside, let's go back." β
Wan Ning shook her hand indifferently: "It's okay, the eldest sister is learning the tea ceremony inside, if we go in, it will disturb them." β
Shuning was very surprised that she said this, so she said, "It turns out that the eldest sister is learning the tea ceremony?" I want to learn about it too, so let's check it out. β
Wan Ning grabbed her: "Then what's there to learn, you can accompany me here to see if the calligraphy and painting are not good?" β
If there is nothing to learn, why should Fang Ning learn? Shuning was a little suspicious, would the two of them entering the elegant room have any effect on Fang Ning? But now there are only Fang Ning and Fan Jinchun in it, although they are said to be lonely men and widows, they are both teenagers, so there shouldn't be any problems.
So she stayed to accompany Wanning to see other calligraphy and paintings, but later there were two or three groups of guests, and she didn't want to crowd with strangers, so she ignored Wanning's persuasion and dragged her back to the private room.
In the elegant room, Fan Jinchun was teaching Fang Ning the gesture of pouring tea, and it seemed that he was teaching very seriously, and Fang Ning was also very serious, but with an unnatural flush on his face, and a slight shyness in his eyes. Shuning frowned, looked at Wanning, and saw that she was just smiling, listening to Fan Jinchun's explanation.
After returning to the Earl's Palace, Shuning took Wanning's hand and said, "Second sister, I have something to tell you, will you come to my house?" Wan Ning followed suspiciously.
After entering the room, Shuning instructed Chunxing: "You go outside and guard, if anyone comes, tell me." "Chun Xing responded. Wan Ning couldn't help but smile and asked, "What's so mysterious?" Still avoiding people? β
Shuning closed the door, walked up to her and asked, "Second sister, let me ask you, how did you know about that tea room in the first place?" β
Wan Ning felt very strange, but still replied to her: "It's my playboy cousin Uncle Kui, once he took the three of us sisters out to play, and took us there, but he ran away without a trace, so we had to drink tea there, and thought the shop was good, and then we went often." β
Shuning continued to ask: "The second sister once said that the guests there are all literati or dignitaries, and the tea guests I saw today spoke very sourly, and they thought that our children's family was ignorant. So, that tea room is not a place for children like us, is it? β
Wan Ning smiled and said: "It's just business, and people didn't say that children can't go, so the third sister doesn't have to worry." β
Shuning thought for a while and said, "Since that's not the place we go, don't go to my sisters in the future, just drink tea and go to Deyue Pavilion." β
Wan Ning said: "How is that the same, and Sister Fang Ning still has to learn the tea ceremony." β
Why is this man so dull?
Shuning decided to make it clearer: "If you want to learn the tea ceremony, it is better to ask a gentleman to teach it seriously, it is better than learning it in an outside shop, and that Fan Jinchun is not a famous teacher." The big sister is different from us, being alone in a room with a boy all day long, will cause people to gossip, it is better to avoid suspicion. β
Wan Ning smiled and patted Shu Ning's head: "Little ghost spirit, where did you learn these things?" If someone says gossip, let people go, Sister Fang Ning is just doing what she wants to do. β
Shuning began to get a little angry: "What do you want to do? If the eldest sister wants to learn the tea ceremony, you can ask Mr. Cai, who is also a tea lover. If what the big sister wants to do is to meet that Fan Jinchun, we should stop her. β
"Stopping her? Why? β
"Of course, that's not right!"
Wan Ning patted Shuning's cheek and said, "How could it be wrong?" There is no right or wrong in love, and there is no distinction between high and low. She clasped her hands in front of her chest, raised her face slightly towards the ceiling, and looked longing: "And first love is the most beautiful feeling of human beings." She paused and put down her hands: "Forget it, you children don't understand this, and when you grow up, you will naturally understand." β
She patted Shuning's head again: "You don't know about this matter, don't tell anyone, ah?" Goodβ" Then he flicked his sleeves and left.
Shu Ning felt a wave of anger slowly rising in her heart: This is something that is related to Fang Ning's happiness in her life, how can you say it so lightly? Since you also know that love is not divided into high and low, that is to say, you know very well how huge the identity difference between Fang Ning and Fan Jinchun is. Not to mention that his family is an official and has a super title, and Fang Ning is the biological daughter of the future head of the family; Although Fan Jinchun is famous and knows several dignitaries, he is still a businessman's son in the end. Even if he becomes an official in the future, there is still a law of "Manchu and Han do not intermarry" between him and Fang Ning. Even if Wan Ning helps them get the marriage of the nobles in the palace by then, I don't know how many years it will be, and Fang Ning will participate in the draft next year!
It is impossible for them to be together, and it is better to nip this feeling in the bud at the beginning than to suffer later. In any case, at such a "girly" age now, even if she has a good impression of a beautiful little boy, it is just an adolescent sprout, and as long as you don't see each other again, you will soon forget it.
However, there is a Wanning, not only does not stop her dangerous feelings, but also adds fuel to the fire and deliberately creates opportunities for them to meet. If...... If the elders in the mansion knew about this, not only Fang Ning would be punished, but even Fan Jinchun would be unlucky!
Wanning, Wanning, in the past, if you liked to play, I would just think I was watching a play, but this thing is not playing, this is not a novel, they are all real people!
Shuning has been thinking about this since she got home, and she can't sleep well at night. There seemed to be two villains in her mind, one said: "No matter how much she is, it doesn't matter to me what Fang Ning does, why bother to fight against Wan Ning?" It's going to get you in trouble. The other said: "It's the lobby sister, do you know it's a pit and still watch her jump?" Could it be that he knew that Wanning had done something wrong, and still watched her continue to harm others? β
In the morning, she woke up with two dark circles under her eyes, and found that she still couldn't stand by, so she made a decision: Since that idiot dressed woman didn't listen, she would go directly to the person concerned!
=================I am the dividing line =============== of the Fang Ning boudoir in the bamboo courtyard
Fang Ning listened to Shuning's words, and said with a handkerchief: "The second sister said that she would help me beg the old lady, as long as the old lady agreed......"
NaΓ―ve girl.
Shuning asked her: "Big sister, tell me honestly, do you really like that Fan Jinchun so much?" β
Fang Ning blushed and said writhingly, "I'm just...... I feel that others are nice and kind...... And the knowledge is good. I don't understand those poems and words, so I took them to ask my second sister, and she thought I was stupid, so I couldn't understand what I said, and I was annoyed in the end. And Xiao Fan Gongzi ...... He always explained to me patiently, he is really a nice person. β
"That's it? So how do you think you like him? Shuning was in hot pursuit.
"When I came back from that teahouse for the second time, my second sister asked me why I always blushed, and I said that I always felt embarrassed when I saw Xiao Fan Gongzi, so she made fun of me for being Sichun......" Fang Ning lowered her head and whispered, "I only knew then that I liked him." Then, the more I saw him, the more I felt that he was so ......" and then she raised her head again and said nervously, "But there are absolutely rules between us, he ...... He doesn't really know what I'm thinking......"
It's still unrequited love!!
Slowly, according to what Fang Ning said, in fact, it was just that Wan Ning thought that Fang Ning liked Fan Jinchun, and Fang Ning had always listened to her sister, and she thought it was really the case. Thinking about it carefully, Fang Ning rarely went out before, and her temperament was cowardly, when she saw a strange man, and he was a handsome little guy with gentle words, it was not surprising that her face would be red, if it wasn't for Wan Ning to create an opportunity for her to continue to meet each other, I am afraid that she would have forgotten about this person long ago!
In that case, it's easy to do!
Shu Ning told her the reality between Fang Ning and Fan Jinchun very seriously, letting her know that it was impossible between the two of them, whether it was their parents or their families, it was impossible to agree that there was a result between them. Finally, he added: "Actually, the big sister herself doesn't really like him that much, right?" Thinking that person is very good and liking that person are two different things, big sister should think clearly. β
Fang Ning was silent for a long time, and then spoke: "Actually, these ...... I know all of them, but the second sister said that she would ask the old lady to fulfill us in everything. β
"Are you putting all your hopes on the second sister?" Shuning couldn't wait to wake up this cousin who had been poisoned by Wanning, "I heard the old lady and the eldest aunt talk about it, you are going to be drafted next year, what should I do then?" β
"Draft...... I may not be able to choose, and the second sister said that when the time comes, you can report illness or disability or something, or find someone to replace her, she said that many people do this...... "Fang Ning was a little uneasy.
Oh my God, my God, Sister Wan, what are you thinking? Do you think it's really a Qing piercing novel, as soon as the heroine crosses, she can replace the lady of a big family to enter the palace draft, and she also has a triangle and a quadrangular love with her brothers? That's impossible!
She remembers very well that Su Yunzhu once mentioned that a distant relative of her family, who is also a military attachΓ©, is a second-class official in Beijing, has great military achievements, and has a knighthood, just because she dotes on her only daughter, she found a girl ring to replace her in the palace draft, but was discovered, not only lost her title, but also was demoted to Yunnan to be a small Qianzong. How could the eldest uncle be willing to take such a risk for his daughter, who has never been favored?!!
Fang Ning listened to her talk about this, and she also became six gods and no master: "This, what should I do?" Amma won't say yes......"
Shuning said solemnly: "Even if the old lady and the eldest uncle and aunt love the second sister again, they will not agree." Big sister, while it's still too late, you're going to die of this heart, besides, you also said it, Fan Jinchun doesn't know your thoughts, if something happens in the future, wouldn't it be too innocent? β
"Boom!" The door slammed open, and Wan Ning burst in, shouting, "Enough! Don't say any more! β
