Chapter 21 Guess
"I know no one will believe it if I say it like this, but...some things I really don't want to do. Whether it's a talent, a reputation, or a name, I don't want to touch it. This...it's true."

Ning Yi's tone was indifferent, but the persuasion contained in the words was beyond doubt. He was answering this question seriously, without any reluctance, without any difficulties, sincere and frank.At this time, he seems to be a young man in his early twenties, and he used to be a dull literati. If he was the nerd before, he would probably stutter in front of Qin Lao Kang, but at this moment, his temperament But it must not be ignored by people. With this figure, it looks detached and free and easy, not limited to objects.If this temperament is in a middle-aged man in his 45s, it is mature and stable, with a deep and firm attitude, and he spends a lot of money in words, which cannot be doubted.

That's what made him even more puzzled by his answer.For someone like Kang Lao, the meaning of being able to ask this sentence is not simple. Moreover, with the current way of communication, Kang Lao is not making a deal with him, and he needs him to repay something. Ordinary people may suddenly lose their heads in order to be arrogant or refuse, but Ning Yi is by no means such a stunned young man.Amidst the doubts of the other party, Ning Yi smiled helplessly.

"Oh, I also understand that this is confusing, but..." He lightly tapped his forehead, "The two of you may not know that you were hit on the head a few months ago, and you only woke up after being in a coma for a few days. I have already forgotten about the past. It is really difficult to focus on the matter of fame and fame. As for hanging around with a group of talented people, lingering in the brothel, painting poetry and writing poetry and writing poems and writing poems and writing poems, I really can't raise much interest. The group of children in the house are interesting, and occasionally tell them a story and make a fuss, or else come here by the river, play chess and drink tea, I feel comfortable, and I have some interesting ideas in my head, maybe Take it slow, I am satisfied with this life now, and as for a little scorn, why bother with him. What will happen in the future, I still don’t know. It’s just that the public is kind, and I can really take care of it.”

He bowed his hands and nodded, "Keep this in mind."

This passage is naturally true and false, but of course it is impossible to tell the truth to them. It is the best way to link such feelings with the fact that the head was beaten and amnesia.This reason does not need to be explained, it is natural and reasonable, and there is no need to give the other party the unnecessary feeling of worrying about eating radish, but it is just that there is such a problem on my own side.

Sure enough, after saying this, Kang Lao and Qin Lao were a little puzzled, Ning Yi said the memory loss again, and the other party was stunned, Kang Xian shook his head and smiled: "I didn't expect this to happen. ." Only when he lost his memory, his thoughts were a little weird.

Afterwards, Kang Lao stopped talking about those things, and after drinking a cup of tea, Ning Yi picked up the white board and charcoal, said goodbye and turned to Yushan Academy.When the figure disappeared at the intersection in the distance, Kang Lao sighed: "I didn't expect this section, and being beaten like that, it will show an indifferent personality. Among the young people, those with such a personality are indeed It's rare, it's just a pity for that talent."

Qin Lao smiled and took a sip of tea: "he is only in his early twenties now, how can he tell what he will become in the future? With his talent, he can't avoid what should happen. Just looking at today's events, Some things are worrying... Duke Ming, Li Heng is too pragmatic."

Kang Xian frowned: "If you say that, it is indeed the case. Reading his poems and writing them are all good sentences, but he doesn't care about the way of poems, hehe, when the moon will be there, since Hanging the southeast branch... Calligraphy is also easy to do, so many kinds, and it can reach such a high level, I am afraid that it is just a pastime on weekdays. In his eyes, these things are not as interesting as the chalk..."

Qin Lao nodded: "It is a good thing to be pragmatic, but if you are too pragmatic and go straight, you may have trouble in the future... Although Liheng also knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, but after all, he is young and energetic. He's still quite arrogant. He didn't want to perfunctory the test of those students, he pushed the invitation, but in front of you and me, he didn't do much to cover up, probably because of this..."

He thought about it for a while, and then laughed: "I don't need to think about this matter. I can't wait to meet friends with chess. It's too much to worry about it. It's enough to know what he thinks. Let's see how things will turn out in the future."

********************
In the past few days, the name Ning Yi has caused some waves in Jiangning City, big or small. Those who can know the name of the water tune and the name will naturally have all kinds of guesses and opinions. , most of the views are actually simple, but if the distance is closer, it will gradually become more complicated.For example, the two elders of Kang and Qin, such as many people in the Su family, are distant relatives, stewards, servants, etc. If they were closer, they would undoubtedly be people like Su Taigong and Su Boyong.Then came Chan'er, Juan'er, and Xin'er. For the past few days, Xin'er used to tease the two of them with "a thousand miles together". Chan'er was a little mentally prepared. His face was burning into a hot little teapot, and he complained to Chan'er in private, "Why did you write this sentence..."

So these few days, when she saw Ning Yi, she lowered her head and walked away.

Among these people, the one with the most complicated mood is naturally Su Tan'er. In all fairness, what she cares most about is not how talented her husband is or how weird his character is, but: she can't understand him anymore.

She originally married Ning Yi because the other party was simple, and she could easily understand this person. Even if she became a relative, she would be able to participate in the Su family's business without criticism.Although this marriage is still in name only, she has more or less accepted each other in her heart. Next, it's just a matter of time.

Who would have thought that only at this moment did he realize that he could not see through this husband at all.

Of course, there are only some clues in this matter at this time. The husband seems to be indifferent, not like a person with ghosts. Su Tan'er is also a quiet and intelligent woman, so she may not panic.It's just that, in addition to dealing with various store affairs, what I think about in my heart can't help but stop at this matter. In such years, no matter how smart and independent a girl is, as long as she is married, who can Do you really care about your husband?

In the past few days, I have been busy managing the many silk and satin cloth villages of the Su Mansion in Jiangning. In my spare time, I asked Juaner to go to the hutong where Ning Yi used to live to inquire about the news, but in the business, the acquaintances I contacted occasionally He will ask, "Is Ning Yi and Ning Liheng your husband?" Then he will praise the water tune.

After getting married, I should have brought my husband-in-law to meet someone I knew before, so that I could be more comfortable when talking about business.However, when they got married, they played a bit of a temper, and Ning Yi was knocked out again. After that, it was time to cultivate. Now, the relationship between the two has almost been finalized, but there are some conversations during meals at home.Although her attitude towards Ning Yi is natural, she has become a relative after all, and she is more reserved and arrogant, so until now, except for the last time she proposed to participate in the Puyuan Poetry Society, she has not made a deal with Ning Yi. An invitation to go out and participate in something.

Now, I am afraid it is even more difficult to propose.

Inquired and collected information about Ning Yi from all sides. Before getting married, she had actually done it once. Most of them were asked by her father and grandfather. She herself and a few maids went to see it. I have inquired about Ning Yi's reputation, and the news I got at that time was just a simple nerd with a low level of talent. Of course, people wouldn't be completely stupid when they read, otherwise they would not accept it later. The Su family's proposal came in.This year, when a man wants to be married to another house, he has probably accepted his fate.

However, when Juan'er was asked to inquire this time, the news was slightly different.

Most of the evaluations were naturally the same as before. Ning Yi didn't have a strong sense of presence in that alley, and some people still remembered after Juan'er emphasized several times that it was a man living in a certain hospital: "Oh, But there is such a person." Or: "That stupid bookworm, I heard that he was married somewhere, and the yard was sold." "I probably feel that I can't test for fame." Such a statement , accounting for the vast majority.

However, there are also two or three schools who have said this: "Oh, Liheng, I knew he was amazing, but he has always been low-key and has a stable temperament. If you don’t have much ink, you are always in the limelight. This is called a bucket full of water without sound, half a bucket of water swaying… girl, you also heard about the water tune and asked about it…”

"I'm in a marriage, because I have a marriage contract. Liheng's child is a sincere person, and the marriage contract must be kept..."

"The third aunt next door, and the second uncle Niu at the entrance of the alley, they all said this, and the maid gave them fifty cents each..." Although she is just a little maid, Juan'er's ability to inquire about news is definitely not acceptable. Xiao Shuang, thinking about it at this time, laughed and talked about his own opinion, "But the maid thinks that they only said this after listening to the water tune, and they can't do much. Master Zou of the book passed away last year, and the maid went to inquire about it. My grandfather's wife hardly remembers the uncle, but after knowing the intention of the maid, she still said some good things. It doesn't seem to be very good, the maid sent two coins of money on her own initiative, and also brought some bacon, in the name of the uncle."

"It should be like this..." Su Tan'er nodded, and then laughed, but what followed was still a deep doubt.Inquiring about the news, I don't necessarily believe what others say. Although I got some good words this time, the basic information is still the same as before. However, after Juan'er investigates another direction, some people seem to The correct guess only gradually revealed the outline to Su Tan'er.

"I'm afraid the old people I met when I went to play chess by the river are amazing... The one I know most clearly now is the old man Kang who spoke for my uncle at the Shishui Poetry Party that day..."

"Huh?" Ning Yi's reputation before his amnesia can be confirmed, so if something really happened, it should be after the amnesia, Ning Yi ran to the river to play chess, and she met a few chess friends. I know, it's just that I didn't do any investigation. The news I got at this time really shocked her. My husband was able to get to know such people. I don't know if it was luck or something else. The information that came over made her even more stunned.

The news uploaded from the Shishui Poetry Society only said that Kang Xian was a master of science, how he was accomplished in various aspects, and how respectable he was.However, some of the background hidden behind it has not been concealed too much, just not to mention it, and it has been investigated as soon as it is investigated.

Kang Xian, Kang Mingyun, is not only a master of calligraphy, but also a master of science. At the same time, his other identity is that of the princess consort of Chengguo, a relative of the royal family.Although the Wu Dynasty has always been extremely strict with the royal family and relatives, it is impossible for the consort to participate in national affairs and become an official in the dynasty, but Princess Chengguo is the aunt of the current sage. Kang Xian is actually the uncle of the current sage. He is just a wealthy and idle person, but such an identity is really precious, and it is simply not something that a business family such as the Su family can match.

Once the news was revealed, the initial shock was indescribable. Su Tan'er was a little stunned for a while, but after a moment of shock, a relatively clear clue gradually appeared in front of her.

"Uncle, how did he make friends with such a big man? Chan'er said that they just passed by at will, played chess at will, and got to know each other." Juan'er was puzzled, and then became a little hesitant. , "But speaking of it, the identity of this old man Kang, and the identity of the uncle... ah..."

Juan'er didn't dare to say the next words, but it was enough.The way of doing business, all kinds of information must be filtered every moment. Sometimes some clues seem unbelievable, but when other clues are filtered out, the remaining ones may be such news.

The identity of the husband, and the identity of the old man Kang... are they both sons-in-law...

For Su Tan'er, although this answer may seem a bit bizarre to ordinary people, it is already the answer that is closest to the core.

Husband... Maybe he just had some contacts with each other when playing chess, or maybe he didn't know the identity of the other party at all, but the two of them did have such a thing in common.The identity of the concubine seems to be noble, and when he married the princess, in fact, he joined the royal family. With the talent of the other party, he could not be an official in his life, and he could not show his ambitions. Understand, in this way, it is no wonder that he wants to block the public's speech at the Water-stopping Poetry Conference and make a name for his husband...

In the water tune, the husband said that a Taoist priest passed by the door. Not only did his grandfather not believe it, but he also absolutely did not believe it, because Xiaochan would definitely not lie to herself. The Taoist priest sang a song, but it was still sung... Maybe it was a coincidence from her husband, or maybe it was done by Mr. Kang. It's hard to say. She doesn't care too much now. All of a sudden, I don't care much about some things.

Her husband's personality is actually indifferent, speaking and doing things, in fact, she is not annoying. She doesn't care if she is talented or not. It is better if she is lower.The Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Festival, I never imagined that there would be such a shady scene. If it was really Kang Xian's plan, maybe it was also a joke by this old man on a whim.

"Look at the old man's teaching you, to scare your lady and family..."

Thinking about it this way, it's not impossible. Although my husband's temperament is indifferent, at this age, he may not really be comfortable with being a son-in-law. Although my grandfather doesn't want to treat him harshly, I don't want him to be discriminated against. It is unavoidable that the identity of the son-in-law is occasionally scorned. People will always have this or that kind of thinking. This is a hurdle that he has to overcome, and it is understandable that he wants to show his talents.

Having said that, husband... Could it be that you really want to tame this restless little girl...

Some things are decided, that will not change. This is the main premise. She originally had no requirements for recruiting or getting married, but one day, she will accept the family business of the Su family. This is the point. And with this premise, my husband-in-law can only be married.She thought so in her heart, but she didn't hate these things she guessed in her heart, and even had a little liking.

There are no more possibilities, are there?

So on the way home, she smiled gently and warmly...

This is a very personal laugh, and even Juan'er and Xing'er in the carriage didn't notice it...
