Walking past the poetry club in the back wing with a towel, I saw Myolie stealing candy.
It’s actually a bit inappropriate to say stealing food. As the eldest maid in the family, she is also the actual housekeeper. Myolie manages the money and accounts, and her monthly salary is also 12 taels. In this era when thirty or fifty taels of silver can buy out a servant, plus the red envelopes of various festivals, if such extra money is put outside, now Xing’er is definitely a little rich woman who is vying for others, she thought. If you want to eat good food, you have a certain amount of capital.
But no matter what, it looked like she was stealing food at this time.
What Ning Yi took out from the cabinet was not a very expensive candy. Ning Yi remembered that it seemed to be a short candy that he bought at random when he was on the street not long ago. The taste was not good. After tasting it, Ning Yi lost much interest. Just eat it. Holding the long candy bar, she looked around sneakily, then put it in her mouth and bit a piece, chewing hard, the sound of bouncing came out, making her look like a squirrel, After eating one, I carefully wiped my mouth, then I couldn't help looking at the bag in the cabinet, looked left and right, and took out one...
It seems that this is not the first time I have seen a similar situation. I didn't pay much attention to it in the past, but I found it interesting at this time, and the expression was too weird. Looking back now, as the big maid by Su Tan'er's side, Xing'er has a pungent personality, but she is not a phoenix like Wang Xifeng. When she is a maid, she must obey the rules internally. In front of Chan'er Juan'er, she It's my elder sister. I mainly manage things calmly in the mansion. Of course, in Ning Yi's eyes, she is just a girl, and she is not much different from Chan'er Juan'er, but she rarely sees her eating snacks in front of people... Oh, it should be I had never seen her before, but her attitude was actually doing all kinds of things that a maid would do.
The last time I saw her sitting and eating snacks, I didn't think much about it, and then I found that there seemed to be no one around that time. Seeing that she was eating interestingly, Ning Yi walked away from the window and took a new towel to take a bath.
After taking a shower and returning to the room, Su Tan'er sat by the window and read the letter. It was a letter from Jiang Ning who had recently delivered it. Ning Yi sat in front of another desk and stared out the window in a daze. Due to the relationship between the rooms, the tables of the two were not placed opposite each other, but in a row in front of the window. Ning Yi occasionally thought about it, it was like the same table in elementary school, so he turned his head to look at Su Tan'er. Tan'er wears a plain white dress, her hair is casually pulled back at the back of her head, and her hair that is not tied flows down to her shoulders. Her skin is fair, and her profile is beautiful and confident in her eyes.
It would be awesome to have a deskmate like this when I was in school...
Su Tan'er turned her head to look at him: "Master, what's the matter?"
Oh, if that girl at the table still called him "Xiang Gong"...
It feels great...
Ning Yi raised his hand at the junction of the two tables: "That's yours, this is mine, don't cross the line."
Su Tan'er blinked suspiciously, then whispered, "What?"
"It's nothing, everyone in the school puts the tables together, and then everyone doesn't allow each other to cross the line. It's very interesting."
Su Tan'er thought about it and smiled: "The tables of Yushan Academy are obviously separate, and girls don't sit next to boys' tables..."
Ning Yi glanced at her and pulled out the hairpin that fastened her hair. The long hair flowed down immediately. Su Tan'er stared at her, and quickly began to sort it out: "It's very hot when you put it down..." A hand went to Ning Yi's place. While grabbing the hairpin, but failed to grab it several times, he had to find a headband to tie it up. Ning Yi looked at the white neck exposed when her hair stood up, like a swan.
"By the way, I saw Xing'er eating candy over there just now. Xing'er likes to eat halva?"
"Ah? Xiang Gong, have you seen it?" Su Tan'er smiled while tying her hair.
"you know?"
"Well, that girl Xing'er is quite greedy."
"I don't usually see it."
"Of course I can't tell, when there are people, she is serious." Su Tan'er smiled, "You don't know, Xianggong, when she was a child, she was kidnapped and sold by a trafficker. The trafficker took a candy and kidnapped her away. She was young at the time, and she couldn’t remember her home. Later, she wanted to look for it and found a woman who bought people from the traffickers, but the traffickers couldn’t find them, and the clue was broken.”
"Uh… "
Ning Yi was speechless for a while, Su Tan'er tilted her head and continued talking with great interest.
"There aren't many people who know her greed. I only found out after I've been with her for a long time. Chan'er Juan'er should also know. She was the first to follow me. In the earlier part, she still liked candy. Later, someone said that she She was abducted from eating candy, she knew she was shy, so she only ate it when she hid..."
"Oh, I was kidnapped because of my greed..."
Ning Yi repeated it and couldn't help laughing. Among the three maidservants, Ning Yi had the most contact with Chan'er on weekdays. The real relationship between them was actually in the half year after the marriage with Su Tan'er, so Ning Yi knew about Xing'er Juan'er's private affairs. There was still not much, at this time the two wentssip for a while, and then they talked about the poetry meeting about the beginning of autumn tomorrow.
Xiaoyingzhou is actually the Three Pools Reflecting the Moon on the West Lake. It is a well-known tourist destination both at this time and in future generations. Qian Xiwen's post was sent, so naturally I will go tomorrow. In addition, in Xiaoyingzhou tomorrow afternoon, not only poets will go to, but because the prefect is taking the lead, not only literati, but also officials and some related merchants will go. , Su Taner follows the past, and can also increase some of the presence in the Hangzhou business community.
"It's just... That old Qian sent the invitation at this time. Could it be because the son of Changqi was at that time?"
When Shi Changqi visited for the first time, Su Tan'er only thought that this was Ning Yi's friend, so she behaved mildly, came out to say hello, and served tea, which is why Shi Changqi couldn't notice anything wrong with the couple. , in the later theory with others, he did not believe that Ning Yi was married. Although Su Tan'er was not at home for the second time, she heard about it later. At this time, she thought of it and asked, but Ning Yi just smiled.
"There must be curiosity, but it is also a matter of saying hello and saying a few words. To be honest, you are not allowed to take your heart. Old Qin, he didn't have any good intentions for asking me to send the letter. I guess he wanted to beat him again. Let me go. What about him... It's not about you or me, but it's inevitable to be brooding about some things."
Su Tan'er knew what Ning Yi was referring to, and she also knew that the "that guy" in her husband's mouth was now the right prime minister. Thinking about it, she felt bizarre, so she nodded and whispered, "Actually, Mr. Qin is right. Xianggong, you are really good, I know that."
"Well, so when I go back, I'm afraid I will go to Beijing." Ning Yi said lightly, and did not take these as a big deal, "Of course, you have to wait for you to deal with the business here in Hangzhou. When the time comes, I will Shangjing, I have to take you there, you can argue with me, but I will insist..."
When he said this, Su Tan'er looked at him and blinked his eyes with some heart. For a while, he didn't know what to say. Ning Yi looked out the window and shrugged: "Of course, you can also go to the capital to continue your business. I'll help you when necessary."
Su Tan'er bowed her head, then shook her head again: "Xiang Gong, if you said this before coming to Hangzhou, we would not come to Hangzhou, and the same goes for going to Beijing..." She thought for a while, and then said, "But after going to Beijing, I will not Let Wen Dingwenfang and the others do it. Officials' families, showing up and doing these things will affect your work... And if you become an official, Xianggong, you may not be in the capital. "
In fact, Su Tan'er's desire to control the family is not as high as most people think. Since her husband-in-law is valued by others and can really be an official, she can naturally give in. And since she wanted to make concessions, she knew in her heart that if Ningyi really became an official, she could no longer do business, so she took the initiative to say it at this time. But Ning Yi shook his head and didn't think like her.
"Don't think so exaggerated, I'm not an official." He explained plainly, "After I go to Beijing, I may ask Mr. Qin to help me get a decent status. In fact, it's enough to be a scholar, and I don't need to raise people. I'm prepared at most. Being a staff officer, coming up with ideas, doing some planning in general, is different from when I was chatting in Jiangning. Once I do these things, I will do them seriously, but they are purely talkative, gossiping, holding the right thigh. Offering slander or something, hehe…”
Ning Yi smiled: "As for going to a certain place to be a magistrate or other official, I didn't plan to do such trivial matters. I don't want to go into that system, intrigue, kneel and worship, that's my original intention. Nope. I can only give opinions at most, and let Lao Qin decide for himself whether to take it as a reference or not. Maybe it's useless for me to talk about soldiers on paper, so I still have to come back. As for you, it won't be affected too much. "
"Ning Liheng..."
Su Tan'er lowered her head and said his name, Ning Yi laughed: "Your voice has changed, I know this sentence will make you cry, you can cry, it doesn't matter, it will make me very sad. There is a sense of accomplishment. Look, I borrow your shoulders to lean on…”
After he said this, Su Tan'er couldn't help laughing again, and reached out and hit him: "No one else can be an official, so if you want to be a staff member, you always have to use the power of others to win the last one. Born. You can be an official, but you always want to be a staff member..."
"I have concluded that among all occupations, only the staff is the most leisurely, with more money and less responsibility. When you have an idea, you go out and say something. If you don't have an idea, most people don't expect you much. And you can just talk. Now, success or failure depends on other people's resistance. Those who always think about being an official are stupid. Being an official is responsible, and the pressure is high. They always drink coffee and lose sleep. what… "
If you really want to be a staff officer, it's more than that, but Ning Yi's ignorant sighs of nonsense make Su Tan'er only laugh, and he doesn't even care about the term coffee. Anyway, Ning Yi is usually a lot of mess. vocabulary. Not long after, Xing’er came over and asked the two of them to go out for dinner. It was the sunset, and some birds flew over from the sky. Su Tan’er raised her head in the yard. There was only a slender cloud in the sky, dyed in the sunset. red color.
The sky is so clear, she stroked the hair beside her ear, thinking so.
The next afternoon, the family went out. Ning Yi and his wife, Chan’er, Juan’er, and Xing’er, including Su Wending and Su Wenfang, went all the way to the edge of the West Lake and boarded their own painting boat, together with many other boats, heading towards Xiaoyingzhou. drive away...
****************
Since the New Year, many trivial matters, life and mood are also in chaos, and there are not many online, but these days, it should be sorted out.
Not long ago, I couldn't find the book to read. When I looked back at the "Invisible Killing" written by myself, I suddenly felt very touched by a paragraph in it. "Yellow white lights, red and green neon, streets in the early morning and dusk, warm and cold cities, hills, grasslands, deserts, ocean forests, heavy rain, sunshine and milky fog, all kinds of people, a life." This sentence The last sentence is this: "Looking back, you will find that, as if subtly, the world has input various concepts and ideas into your mind."
I suddenly thought that sentence was very beautiful. I was probably watching Makoto Shinkai's cartoon before and after writing it. The reason why it touched me was because I suddenly thought that if I repeat it again, I am afraid I will not write such a sentence. This has nothing to do with regressing and progressing, it's just that people will continue to mature and change, and what I wrote is another sentence pattern.
For a long time in my position, I wrote a book for a book. I wrote a book called "The Realm of Demons" from high school to graduation, which allowed me to expand my thoughts. Later, I wrote more and more ideas, until I was completely I can’t control it and I don’t even dare to write. I think I can write such a book after constant practice, but I recently calculated that I am twenty-seven years old, not too big, even in my For example, I think I am still full of vigor, but the idea of my son-in-law is already very big. If it is written for four more years, and then I write "Alienation" for another four years, I will be thirty-five years old, and then I will have it in my mind. What will the story of 's be revised to look like? The Tathagata in my mind, the heaven in my mind, and the paranoia in my mind may not be the same as before.
Writing may become a more pressing thing for me, because they will remember who I was at each stage.
Just some recent moods, nothing to do with anything.
But then again, when I think of thirty-five years old, I feel like I will become very old, why can't people live three hundred and fifty years old...
