son-in-law

Chapter 51
Since the New Year's Eve, the relationship between Ning Yi and Su Tan'er has become more and more natural.Of course, what is natural here is not the "husband and wife" model of this era, but just the way "two weirdos" get along.

After the showdown a few years ago, Su Tan'er found a balance for her position for the first time. After she felt at ease, many things became easier.In the past, I always wanted to work hard to maintain the "home" model, but now I don't have to do it so deliberately; in the past, I always had to actively look for topics at the dinner table, weighing which ones can be talked about, which ones will be of interest to the other party, and which ones need to be avoided so as not to cause problems. The other party's unhappiness is similar to the feeling of talking about business. Naturally, there is no need for this now, but there are more topics. There is no need to deliberately look for it, and it is interesting to say anything casually.

Although Ning Yi went out for a run every morning, the husband and wife often went out after breakfast at home. The directions were different. Su Taner rode a carriage, while Ning Yi walked lightly.Xiaochan is usually faced with two choices at this time, with the young lady or with the uncle. Of course, she can stay at home, but the other two choices are obviously more useful. Follow the uncle, there is nothing to do, but you can listen to the uncle's lectures and listen to some The story, every time she heard the uncle say it casually, and it was fascinating, she would think that the uncle is so knowledgeable...

Of course, Su Tan'er has been quite busy recently, and this is always the case in the beginning of spring, so Xiaochan still chooses to go with the young lady. As I said before, although she treats Ning Yi and Su Tan'er innocently and plainly, she does it well. Things are quite reliable. She is responsible for more than just serving people intimately every day. Once Ning Yi saw her angrily training people, frowning very seriously, she was fierce, while Xun also pointed out the fact that several of them were intriguing and pulling each other's legs: "Don't think I didn't see it!" The method of making up was arranged, and he said a few more words, waving a short ruler in his hand. , and then stared at the short ruler for a while, scratching his hair, "I'm sorry, the ruler that the lady wants..." Turning his head, "Don't hurry up!" After sending everyone away, he turned around and hurriedly ran, Ning Yi was behind Laugh all the time.She was raised as a manager, of course, the two are not in conflict, both are part of her temperament.

Ning Yi would go home at noon or in the afternoon, sometimes with Xiaochan, because Xiaochan would run to find him before get out of class ended at noon. If Xiaochan didn't go, he would be alone.After noon, Su Tan'er had mostly returned, sometimes in the room, sometimes in the living room, and sometimes sitting in the pavilion in the courtyard.Juan'er and Xing'er sometimes followed and sometimes disappeared, and they also had to deal with the trivial matters of the people in the big room.

Su Tan'er likes to bite her hand when she is thinking about things, sometimes she bites her fist, sometimes she bites her finger lightly, most of which are the expressions she shows when no one is there.One evening when Ning Yi came back, the sun was setting, Su Tan'er was sitting in a pavilion in a goose-yellow dress, reading a book, her white teeth gnawing at the tips of her thumbs, occasionally turning a page.Ning Yi walked over, stood for a while and was about to say hello, Su Tan'er suddenly turned around, still biting her fingertips, her big eyes looked at Ning Yi for a moment, feeling a little ignorant and innocent, and then turned back again , quietly continued to read the ledger.

Seeing her ignoring him, Ning Yi shrugged and walked away a little boringly, thinking that this woman was really calm, and not far away, Su Tan'er shouted from behind: "Xiang Gong! You scared me to death!" Tan'er looked over with a righteous look, and patted her heart with her hand.After a while, Ning Yi spread out his hands silently, and Su Tan'er also laughed angrily.

From returning home, to having dinner, to pastime in the evening, to finally going to bed, everyone gets together, talking and chatting, talking about this and that.Sometimes, Ning Yi would feel that Su Tan'er was somewhat similar to her previous self. Of course, the specific problems she faced would be different, and her mood and confusion would also be different.Sometimes he thinks that the problems Su Tan'er faces may be more severe than his own. She is a woman. If there is a man in the Su family who is smarter and more capable, things will be simple, and if she is stupid, things will be simple. Answer, but she is in this gap, so she can only move forward, and she has to face the problems she faces because of her female identity from time to time.

Sometimes they "meet" by the pillar on the second floor.About every few days, I will take a look at the scenery of the entire Su family mansion.Su Tan'er can say some messy things, some of which can't be said in front of others, even in front of Chan'er and Juan'er, it's not good, mainly because it's meaningless, or some of her business plans, some The proud little tricks, but also the parents are short-sighted. A cousin just cheated several hundred taels from her, saying that if he saw the same good china, the price would definitely go up when he bought it. Su Taner gave the money with a smile, and turned to talk to Ning Yi. Saying that the guy raised a woman outside, he bit his finger and said, "You can threaten him in the future, or tell my sister-in-law and let my sister-in-law make trouble..."

Su Tan'er is very smart and talented in business, but after all, she is only 19 years old, and the pressure she faces often has nowhere to complain. Ning Yi may be the only one who can give her space to decompress.In her opinion, this man understands part of what she said, but he may not be able to understand it all. Sometimes Ning Yi said a few things she didn't understand, and she just listened like that. At such a moment, even if Ning Yi spoke words No matter how weird or incomprehensible what he said, she would not be surprised.

There is one thing that is rather peculiar. Maybe she gave her a pine egg when they were chatting together for the first time. After the second chat, Su Tan'er hesitated, and then asked, "Did you bring anything to eat? ?" Then he said, "Bring something to eat next time."

After that, I gave her something to eat, a small packet of sugar, peanuts, candied dates, etc. The Su family was not short of money, there was no pressure to provide these things, and there were pears that were hard to eat this season.Once Ning Yi picked up a flatbread, the weather was cold in late winter and early spring, and it was frozen like beef jerky.Su Tan'er didn't mind either.Then he said, "Xianggong did it on purpose."

By February, the topic was more casual, and they looked like strange friends of this era, a businessman and a little deviant gizmo.Once Su Tan'er asked Ning Yi, "Why did the lord never go to those brothel places and go to those talented people's invitations?"

Ning Yi shrugged: "I know two words, but I can't find a girl..."

Su Tan'er thought about it for a long time before she roughly understood this sentence, and laughed: "Break them with money, those cousins, every time they get tens of taels from Tan'er, they are all patrons. Some famous ones. Xianggong got a few hundred taels, plus the talent, what Qilan, Lu Caicai and the others, it's not a problem to see the above... By the way, after Yuan Xi, I heard people say That girl Qilan is quite fascinated by Xianggong, there are a few nights when she sings Xianggong's sapphire case every night, the sound of the piano is euphemistic and desolate, maybe, what kind of good news can Xianggong have with her..."

She turned her eyes and glanced at Ning Yi. Ning Yi thought about it and nodded: "Is there such a thing? Then I'll go there tomorrow night... After all, it's not easy..."

Su Tan'er ate broad beans this night, and glanced at him coldly, then bit it crunchly for a long time, and then snorted with a smile: "Then Xianggong, take Xiaochan with you."

Ning Yi is not short of money, mainly because he can always ask Xiaochan, he doesn't use it much, and Su Tan'er has no opinion on these matters.But even if Xiao Chan is well-behaved, if Ning Yi really runs to recruit prostitutes, it is conceivable which side Xiao Chan will stand on.At this time, he sighed: "Only women and villains are difficult to support... You are a woman who is not sincere at all. Give me the broad beans, don't eat them!"

Su Tan'er took the small bag and stepped back suddenly, smiling like a fox: "Tan'er has been in business for several years, and I've never heard that a businessman is really sincere, so please take care of it."

February passed in such an ordinary day for Ning Yi. Students, Nie Yunzhu, Xiaochan, Su Taner, Chemical Engineering, and sometimes also met with Qin Lao and Kang Lao, and chatted a few times. Learn about the situation of Song Xian and Wu Liejun from other channels.He recalled the woman's martial arts, but the female assassin also disappeared after Yuan Xi.

In early March, the Su family's business was also busy, but Su Tan'er still spared one day to go on an outing outside Jiangning with Ning Yi and the three maids.I came back this afternoon and went to the teahouse to drink tea, but I inadvertently overheard a few people dressed as students talking about Songhuadan, saying that the woman who runs the Songhuadan is a beautiful woman with both talents and talents, but she only wants to support herself with her hands , researched the method of making Songhua Eggs. A talented man admired its character and had been pursuing it for several years. At this time, he made a small calculation, and it took less than half a month to open up sales for that novelty.

In fact, although Nie Yunzhu is also busy now, it is impossible to say that Songhuadan's reputation has spread far.At this time, the few people were talking about the "small plan", which was exactly what they asked Li Pin to help find someone as a trustee.It's funny in my heart, I don't know how Li Pin got involved with Nie Yunzhu for this matter, and he pursued it for several years.But after listening for a while, I realized that this was not the case.

"This Gu Hong and Gu Yanzhen were famous in Jiangning a few years ago. This time, he returned from Tokyo because of this woman. Now that he has a reputation and is still deeply in love with her, it is rare..."

"The technique is also clever, but it only takes a few days to solve the problem... A talented person and a beautiful woman, given time, it will become a good story."

"I don't think so. That woman is not a good match for showing up and running such business..."

After listening for a while, I realized that these people were all talking about the man named Gu Hong and Gu Yanzhen. When I recalled Nie Yunzhu's question that seemed to have some meaning a few days ago, he thought of something, and he couldn't help shaking his head and smiling.

The next day before dawn, before arriving at the small building, Nie Yunzhu was sitting on the steps waiting for him as usual. When he saw him coming, he showed the same smile as usual. Ning Yi looked at her for a while and rubbed slightly. Forehead: "Tired lately?"

"Huh?" Nie Yunzhu was stunned for a while, then shook his head in confusion.

Ning Yi sat down beside him, mulling over his words: "Why... didn't you tell that Gu Yanzhen clearly and let him... stop the matter?"

The morning breeze in the darkness brought a chill, and the front of the small building fell into silence.After a while, Nie Yunzhu's voice came from the side: "Liheng...how could it be...Liheng...why...ask this..."

"Uh, I just heard...that Gu Yanzhen..." Ning Yi spread out his hands, not knowing how to express it.

"I...I, I have nothing to do with that Gu Yanzhen...they are talking nonsense...Liheng...uh...I..."

There seemed to be something wrong with Nie Yunzhu's voice. Ning Yi turned his head to look over. In the darkness, there was only light coming from one side of the house. The woman's expression seemed a little resentful. She wanted to emphasize something but couldn't grasp the point.Ning Yi looked at it for a long time and found it difficult to understand, and said slowly, "Well, I see..."

Nie Yunzhu glanced at him, frowning as if he was about to cry, but then he took a deep breath, looked at Ning Yi seriously, and emphasized, one word at a time.

"I have nothing to do with that Gu Yanzhen."
