It's not yet dawn, and the bedroom feels noisy under the lights.
"... After the news came, there was a lot of noise everywhere in the past few days, especially the students who were studying. They were making a lot of noise..."
Wrapped in the quilt, Su Tan'er stood up from the bed and stretched out her hand to straighten her husband's clothes. It was not yet the first month of the year, and it was still freezing outside. Although the room was warm last night, it had dropped a bit at this time.
Temperature, Su Tan'er just wore a small coat, exposed the quilt for a while, then got back in, only exposing her head to talk to Ning Yi.
Although she is already the helmsman of a large store and has been running various businesses for several years, she only had sex with her husband at the end of last year. Although she is generous on weekdays, she is still looking young when she is wrapped in a quilt at home and talking to her husband.
It's so cool, even in this era. Even though Su Tan'er has experienced many things in the mall, she still looks like a young girl in the boudoir.
At this time, Ning Yi got up, and Chan'er and Juan'er also came in with basins and handkerchiefs. Su Tan'er's boudoir was not quite big to begin with, but Ning Yi's things were all moved in a few years ago.
Personally, I still feel a little crowded in it, but Su Taner is not particular about these things. Before the new house was built, she only said that it would be warm. The warmth was indeed quite warm. Ning Yi took the facekerchief handed over by Xiaochan.
, sitting on the edge of the bed and chatting a few words.
"These things have been discussed in the academy these days. Everyone feels a little panicked. They are afraid that the Jin Kingdom will not be able to fight with the Liao Kingdom. Some people say that the Jin Kingdom is weak and weak. Although it has won a few battles, it will still be defeated in the end.
They are afraid of the Liao Kingdom, and they also say that our Wu Dynasty is not proactive enough. If we can be more proactive, the Jin Kingdom will probably become more determined... Hehe, these people are quite thoughtful..."
"Yesterday, I heard from the masters of the Qi family in the cloth village that Duke Zhongheng of Qingyuan wanted to call on a group of famous people to write to the government, and they came to ask me about my husband's intentions..."
"Yesterday, two old masters came to the academy to see me... I am considered a famous person."
"My husband is the most talented person in Jiangning. It is normal for them to come to see my husband. Has my husband agreed?"
"Uncle Chonghua helped me talk and wanted to be in the limelight. I promised to sign my name when the time comes. It's just a gimmick anyway and of no use."
"We are united as one."
"Heh, it's not necessarily true that there are many..."
A few people were walking around in the bedroom. Ning Yi took the handkerchief to wash. Xiaochan wanted to reach out and take it, but Ning Yi waved her hand and refused. The little girl flattened her mouth, as if Ning Yi had snatched her handkerchief away.
Work is average.
Since the news of the tense situation between the Jin Kingdom and the Liao Kingdom the previous year had been brewing for a long time in the Wu Dynasty, when the news of the peace talks between the two countries came out, the people were suddenly disappointed. Many scholars felt it was a pity. Some people thought that the Wu Dynasty should take the initiative.
Send troops and seize the opportunity to unite with the Jin State. In short, the discussion was quite lively. Ning Yi and Su Tan'er were also affected, and they took it back as a talking point when they got up.
"I think it would be better to fight later."
"The family also has business with the Liao Kingdom?"
"Well, there are always some, but it's not for this..." Su Tan'er nodded in the quilt, and then shook her head, "It's just that the Wu family's business has just been taken over, and it hasn't been settled yet.
If we start a war now, something might easily happen... Of course, that's what I'm saying..."
As she said this, Juan'er, who was organizing the wardrobe on the other side of the room, suddenly laughed: "Speaking of the Wu family, uncle, young lady, the Wu family is probably going to be pissed to death right now, right?"
This girl is usually well-behaved and quiet, but sometimes she is a bit sinister. When she said this, suddenly everyone in the room couldn't help laughing. Ning Yi, Su Tan'er, Chan'er... Ning Yi threatened the Wu family in the first place.
Originally, they were taking advantage of the impending war, and in the end they scared the Wu family so much that they did not dare to risk the lives of the whole family. At this time, it was not long before the New Year, and the handover between the Wu and Su families had already been completed. Others only thought that the strong man of the Wu family had broken his wrist and abandoned his car.
Baoshuai, if he knew the specific inside story, he would really laugh to death.
It was early in the morning, and the oil lamp cast a warm yellow light in the room. The people in the room laughed not too loudly, but it was really warm. After a while, Su Tan'er mentioned other things: "My husband, if nothing happens,
, how about we take a walk around as a family this summer?"
"summer?"
"Well, in a few months, after the spring silk harvest is finished, I will go to Suzhou and Hangzhou and visit all the way. As the saying goes, there is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. My family also has some industries in these places. When the weather is hot,
It’s a good time to go there to escape the heat.”
"That's fine."
"Then I will start making arrangements."
Ning Yi nodded in agreement, and Su Tan'er became happy. In fact, it was only the end of January at this time. If it was a summer trip, there was no need to start planning now. However, Su Tan'er actually had some matters of her own. In the past, she was in charge of the big house property.
, I would go out once a year, first with my father, and later with my own servants as escorts. This was also to familiarize myself with the specific conditions of the industries in various places, so that when I actually took over the business, I would just stay at home and work on it behind closed doors.
When she got married to Ning Yi, she left home because she had the experience of traveling far away. Naturally, this time is different from that time. This year, she has taken over the entire big house. She shouldn't run around everywhere, but with Ning Yi
The relationship has made such progress. In Su Tan'er's heart, on the one hand, she values the family business, and on the other hand, she also wants to run this marriage well. She plans to be a good wife and mother in the future, and she even feels a little less for this.
I am willing to compare dollars and cents in the business world. But I want to use it for personal benefit and go out for fun together according to the "custom" of previous years.
In addition, there are some deeper and more complicated reasons. She and her husband Ning Yi played well against the Wu family last year, which greatly made her famous and stabilized her status in the Su family. But after her father recovered from his injury, in fact,
She still has enough control over the big house. Su Tan'er learned from her father's style, and as a woman, she is extremely skilled in all aspects of subtle operations, but when it comes to being mature and prudent, she may not be as good as her father.
a certain distance.
Although Su Boyong was paralyzed, he was still not old and his mind was clear after all. After Xi Junyu's incident was exposed, he also ordered the Hundred Swords Alliance to find them and almost killed them all. The old man's ruthlessness and prestige, in the big house, after all,
There are still some things that are irreplaceable. Su Tan'er's status has now been determined and cannot be shaken. However, in the next few years, it is conceivable that her father will still have to escort her for a period of time.
Although there is a certain gap in family ties between Su Tan'er and Su Boyong, there is not much grudge between them regarding the inheritance of power. It is not a big problem for Su Boyong to hand over all the power, but Su Tan'er may not accept all of it at this time.
It can be lived in. There is naturally a tacit understanding internally, but externally, on the one hand, Su Boyong has control over the big house, and on the other hand, the old lady has announced the matter of Su Tan'er taking over the big house. From the outside, it is inevitable that some differences will arise.
.Due to these factors, Su Taner made the first choice.
After the great victory against the Wu family, they stopped, took a break, and digested the results of this time as much as possible before causing any trouble. On the other hand, as Su Tan'er, she had already had enough limelight, and she was only the second
At ten years old, there is no need to move forward impatiently at this time. She still has to put her father first. Moreover, when her image fades, others will see that the entire Su family, not just the big house, but also the second and third bedrooms, actually has benefits to occupy.
At this time, she no longer needs to limit her thinking to just a big house, and can start to consider sharing the benefits for the second and third bedrooms. Some people will always remember her beautiful methods. In addition, she is also thinking about the war in the north.
Shift the focus of various businesses to the southeast. Suzhou and Hangzhou are the most developed areas and must be the top priority in the future. She can highlight the image of the Su family in Jiangning, and she can go to Suzhou and Hangzhou to observe it.
All of them are beautiful.
Of course, there is no need to mention these things too much. She thought about it in her heart and just remembered that she was going on a long trip with her husband. She had made a big sacrifice. She was still lying in bed and didn't want to get up.
Then she put on her dress and got up, ready to start planning for summer travel in advance. Chan'er and Juan'er also liked to go out and play. While helping the young lady dress and wash her face, they discussed softly with her.
Ning Yi greeted them and opened the door to go out for morning exercise. It was just dawn and snow was piled in the yard. Several snowmen outlined a vague outline in the yard. Ning Yi did a few stretches under the eaves.
In the makeshift kitchen over there, Xing'er was sitting there lighting a fire. She poked her head out: "My uncle, get up."
The morning breeze was cold, and the entire Su family compound was gradually waking up as the chickens and dogs heard each other.

"Then what is the origin of Bamboo Records..."
It is almost early in the morning, and the streets along the Qinhuai River are already bustling with activity. Ships are sailing across the river in the cold air, and the streets are full of people, cars, horses, and vendors, which has already begun to exaggerate the excitement and hustle and bustle of the day. It is called gathering.
At the entrance of the hotel restaurant, a carriage stopped there, and a man in his thirties got out of the carriage. This man had a slightly pointed chin, and was dressed in an elegant military uniform, with a folding fan inserted behind his back.
To be honest, carrying a fan is a very rude thing these days, but he took it out from behind his back, opened it and fanned it a few times in the freezing morning breeze. At this time, he frowned and looked at the beautiful building facing the river on the other side of the road.
Restaurant.
With his pointed chin, he looks a bit like a wealthy man in his clothing, and looks like a scholar from the way he shakes his fan. He looks like a fool from the way he shakes his fan in this weather, and his appearance and spirit are somewhat similar to those of a rogue on the street.
The door of the Jubin Building behind him was originally closed at this time, and the lights were on inside, probably preparing to open the door. After the strange pointed chin arrived, the door opened, and a shopkeeper quickly came out to greet him: "
Fourth Master Chen, are you here so early?"
"What's so early? I just came out of Yancui Building and was about to go home to catch up on my sleep. I passed by... What is this Zhuji Jin'er store? Isn't this a tiger's mouth that snatches food from a tiger's mouth? Who opened it? What's the background?
?”
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then he saluted: "Returning to Fourth Master, the shopkeeper of Zhuji came to send greetings before. The shopkeeper over there is surnamed Lin. He is an old man, but the boss behind him seems to be two women.
Yes, I see them coming here every day, but I haven’t heard of their background... Oh, but I heard that they are two girls who worked in a brothel."
"Be a good person?" Chen Si laughed, "You're fooling me... how can any girl be a good person?"
He looked at the restaurant a few more times, his face darkened, and he shook his head: "This restaurant cannot be opened here. It is robbing business, and it is obvious that it is at odds with our Chen family... Let them move away."
