In the spring of March, the warblers are flying and the grass is growing. It is a good time for spring to bloom in the city of Jiangning.
The Qingming Festival has passed, and the Grain Rain has not yet arrived. The coldness of winter has completely dissipated by this time. In the season of flowers blooming, the water of the Qinhuai River has also warmed up. It is a good time for outing outside the city. Egrets
In the Zhoutou area, many people go out for spring outings every day, gatherings of families, immigrants, poets, and literati gather frequently. This is
The Spring Festival and the period after the New Year's Eve are the most suitable for gatherings and travel. Even if the weather is not good and the spring rain is continuous, people can always find some beautiful gardens, recite poems and make friends, and watch the clear spring rain fall among the green and red.
Set off the poetic and picturesque scene, perform well in front of the woman you like, and inadvertently, a series of emotional stories will spread.
This period of time is also the busiest time for many fireworks places in Jiangning. The Qinhuai style is full of golden dust. After the severe winter, everything revives. This is also the period of time that can most drive reputation. Take the prosperity of Confucius Temple and Wuyi Lane as examples.
First of all, the brothels and Chu houses of each family were also the center of various activities in Jiangning at this time. Literary gatherings, businessmen banquets, and official greetings were all inseparable from the earthly red color, which also set off the style of Jiangning at this time.
It has to become more and more attractive.
After Tongguan from the south took back Hangzhou, the economy of Jiangnan, which was originally thought to be affected by Fang La's rebellion, began to pick up again. Jiangning had been affected relatively implicitly before. At this time, the takeover of Hangzhou, although it controlled the Hangzhou and Jiangnan areas,
Not much has changed at the top of the economic system, but some
After all, the aristocratic families and giant merchants have been greatly affected by this chaos. They are waiting for things to be done, giving more people the opportunity to come forward. The replacement of the old with the new has injected more vitality into the original economic system.
At least in the Jiangning area, the number of merchants and travelers traveling from north to south has increased.
Ning Yi did not participate in these things anymore.
After the family returned from Jiangning, the most important thing was actually Su Tan'er's care and maintenance of the baby. After the accident in Hangzhou, the many chaos in the family seemed to be like the commotion of a clown.
Ning Yi and Su Tan'er are back, and the big house is already regaining lost ground. Of course, there will still be people in the second and third houses who think "we are all a family, what can you do to me", this kind of people fall into
I'm afraid there won't be many good fruits in Su Yu's hands.
Regarding these matters, in the few days after returning home, Su Boyong first started to take action. Then the old lady Su Yu talked to a group of elderly people at home, and the situation in the entire Su family changed from undercurrent to turmoil.
This laid the foundation for Gong Douwen's environment in later generations. However, Su Tan'er was not involved. She was already nine months pregnant, and even if Ning Yi wanted to worry about the pregnancy in the last month, Ning Yi would not allow it.
As for Ning Yi, he naturally stopped getting involved in such trivial matters at this time. Many people who wanted to come to visit Su Tan'er were directly stopped by him and sent away. Among the many things he did in Hangzhou during this year, Su Wending and Su Wenfang
The exaggeration. There are also many relationships brought about after returning home this time. In the eyes of many people, he is already a person of inestimable importance.
Most people knew about his reputation for calculating every step of the way more than a year ago. The Wu family fell into his hands and half of the property was lost. In the eyes of others, it looked like the Wu family had provoked Su Tan'er to force him to do so.
He came forward and broke both of the Wu family's legs. At this time, he said that when he faced Fang La and others in Hangzhou, even Fang Qifu, stone treasures and the like suffered big losses in front of him... Each and every thing, truly intimate
I haven't seen it much, but now no one has any suspicion.
However, the twenty-two-year-old young man, in the eyes of others, felt that he had an aura of calmness and power. His indifference coupled with his reputation is exactly what a good attacker can do in the nine heavens, and a good defender.
There is a saying that the person is hidden under the Nine Earths. This kind of feeling may not even be felt by Su Boyong and Su Yu. At present, no one in the Su family wants to spend too much time exploring his reality. Everyone knows that no one will suffer the consequences.
Come on.
Of course, no matter what impression Ning Yi gives people now, as long as it is possible and has spare power, Su Boyong will not let him step in to clean up the mess. After all, he is joining the Su family. Although his position in the Su family now seems subtle and complicated,
Since he has not spoken, it is best to keep his status as a bride-in-law. In fact, in the era of Jia Tian Xia, although everyone now thinks he is very powerful, if we really talk about it, it is impossible to be really afraid of him in our own family.
Or how much you fear him.
Historically, there have been many high-ranking officials who were cruel and merciless to their political opponents, but were often tortured to the point of being helpless by the ruffians in their own family. For example, if you become an official and your relatives come to seek refuge with you, you must support them, feed them, and give them food.
The only way out for them is if someone in your family comes to ask for money, you must give it, no matter how much it is, if everyone goes back to spread the word, you will be despised by thousands of people and you will no longer be able to hold an official position.
There are also many people who want to be upright officials. They have a clean life, but they can't care about the people in their hometown. The people in their hometown only think that they are stingy and stingy. They forget their ancestors. They were attacked by political enemies in the past and betrayed by their family members. They are still living a tight life... The development of Confucianism, the family world.
It has been developing for thousands of years. In short, it is like this, with various relationships and involvements. No one who becomes a high official can be free. Ning Yi is so powerful. Naturally, no one believes that he dares to use a knife on his family. At most, everyone should not
It made him anxious. Anyway.
On the other hand, after Ning Yi and his wife came back, they gave many merchants attached to the Su family a shot in the arm. The actions of the Xue family and the Wu family finally stopped. They had already taken advantage, and now they wanted to explore
Exploring the truth and falsehoods of Ning Yi and others. Xue Jin
Whether it's Wu Qilong or others who have some connections, they have already sent many posts to the Su family, inviting Ning Yi to participate in banquets, poetry gatherings, and various other activities. Pu Yangyi and others also used Qilan to
Ning Yi invited her several times, but Ning Yi refused them all.
His attitude of not giving face to anyone made Su Boyong feel a little pity. He told Su Tan'er that whether it was an invitation from people like Pu Yangyi or not, he still had to go. In his opinion, the Xue family and the Wu family might not need to pay attention.
However, the Puyang family still has to give face. Su Tan'er didn't want to pay attention to it, and only said: "Dad, my daughter is having a baby, and if you say these things to your husband, he will be angry."
"But..." She was obviously a strong daughter, but now she has become a little afraid of her husband. This appearance makes Su Boyong feel helpless.
On the second day after returning home, Ning Yi and Su Tan'er announced the news that Xiao Chan had officially passed away. This was a formal announcement of Xiao Chan's status in the Su family. Ning Yi accepted Xiao Chan as his little sister.
Concubine, it’s a bit strange, but basically no one raised any objections. In the courtyard of the big house here, Xiaochan also
She is quite low-key, and her relationship with the two sisters is still very good, and the things they do on weekdays have not changed much. Anyway, they used to be the maids in charge. At most, they have earned more money every month, so they can be more powerful outside, but
Xiaochan stopped meddling outside. She didn't want to cause trouble to Ning Yi.
On Ning Yi's side, he deliberately did not want this system of wives and concubines to reflect too much difference in his own yard. Of course, Su Tan'er and Xiaochan had rules in their hearts, and it was impossible for him to break these rules.
, but at least in the recent period, his treatment of Xiaochan,
Many times, she is more like a sister than a concubine. This kind of situation is a bit subtle, and Su Tan'er will find it strange. Secretly trying to figure out her husband's thoughts, Xiaochan will also feel that the situation is complicated. This is a running-in period between the three of them.
.What will happen in the end is naturally difficult to say.
Most of the time, Ning Yi still stayed with Su Tan'er at home. Chatting, walking, sometimes peeling some fruit for her, or playing one or two games of backgammon with her. She was about to give birth to a child at this time, and her mental and physical resources were
It’s not bad to consume too much. Ning Yi sometimes tells her some stories, or lies on the bed with a storybook and novels to read to her, and sometimes he even hums a song or two softly.
He is a man with modern ideas and does not think there is any problem with such things. But in the Wu Dynasty, there were a few men who would accompany their pregnant wives like this, singing songs for their wives, etc.
That's something only an extremely bohemian man who likes drama would do.
.And even under such circumstances, there is a fundamental difference between believing that men are superior to women and not having such thoughts at all. Once Ning Yi went out to get something. When he came in, he could see the always strong Su Taner wiping tears.
, then smiled at him, and Ning Yi curled his lips.
"What is this for..."
"I was thinking...how many men would do this for their wives..."
"I'm too lazy to go out, and you don't want to socialize. It's all trivial matters... You shouldn't have such a big mood swing..." He took a towel to wipe Su Tan'er's face, and Su Tan'er took his hand and put it on her face.
On the heart: "It's warm and hot, it's always been there, no ups and downs."
I usually go out every morning in the early morning, run around the small building near the Qinhuai River, and chat with Yunzhu Jiner for a while. I haven't had such a leisurely day for a long time, and this feeling makes people feel that they haven't seen it for a long time.
At this time, the two of them also knew the news that Su Tan'er was pregnant, but Yunzhu didn't say anything, and Jin'er only occasionally criticized it, but did not regard it as a breakthrough in the quarrel with Ning Yi. This is very interesting.
strangeness.
Of course, the essence of training has not changed. When Lu Hongti left, he gave him a lot of suggestions and references for improving martial arts skills. Ning Yi started practicing seriously. Of course, there was no obvious effect in the first few days, but if he persisted,
It may not be impossible to become a hero or something. Ning Yi still has confidence in Lu Hongti, and even copied a copy of these things to Yuan Jin'er, who often shouted that she wanted to be a heroine.
In her spare time, Su Tan'er had already begun to think about naming her future child. One of the ideas she was more passionate about was a more straightforward idea. She decided to give birth to a boy in the future and call him Suning. Ning Yi seriously refused: "You can't call it this."
, must not be called, if the son is called this, the daughter should not be called Supor..."
He didn't want the two people's surnames to be put together, which made Su Tan'er very hurt, and she couldn't help but think wildly: "Is it possible that my husband doesn't want to... change the word Ning... uh..."
She felt that Ning Yi was unwilling to put Ning behind Su. She may have felt that the name Suning confirmed Ning Yi's identity as his wife, and even emphasized it. Ning Yi had to explain that it had nothing to do with it and that he had his own
The reason. Then he said that he could choose a better name, and he had already chosen it anyway: Su Shi, Su Che, Su Xun, Su Song, Su Xiaoxiao, Su Dongpo, etc., they all sounded better than Suning...
As for the name, in fact, Ning Yi thinks that there is nothing wrong with it. The reason why he objects to being called Suning is just because he thinks it is too funny when he hears the name. He wants to laugh. Of course, he is also seriously thinking about some good ideas these days.
I have chosen a name, but it will take a long time to officially name the child anyway, so there is no need to be too anxious now.
At this time, he was just thinking about the name leisurely, while Su Tan'er seemed to be thinking about it more seriously. At noon on the sixth day of March, Xiaochan went out for a walk with Su Tan'er. Ning Yi
After reading for a while, I went out to search. I walked half a circle around Su's house. When I arrived near the yard where Su Boyong lived, I vaguely heard my wife's voice, and then Su Boyong's voice said: "This is unreasonable, how can it be like this!"
Ning Yi's internal strength had already been established at this time, and his hearing was a little further away. Su Boyong's voice was faintly heard because it was raised. Ning Yi knew that the relationship between his wife and her father-in-law was not actually very warm. At this time
There was probably a disagreement over something.
It's just that since Su Tan'er proved her ability, she has actually surpassed her father-in-law in all aspects of the say in the family business. How could Su Boyong suddenly have opinions about his daughter? Ning Yi was curious and reached out to turn over the
He crossed the wall and leaned from the side, and then he heard Su Tan'er's words clearly.
"...The first boy's surname is Ning, so what? Dad, he wants to inherit the mantle of my husband, but he also grew up in the Su family. He always remembers the Su family in everything...my husband actually doesn't care about these things.
, he has already told me that even if his surname is Su, he will still teach his children everything they need to teach. Dad, you all know how your husband treats his daughter. I have been thinking about this for many days.
Yes, so I asked my mother to tell you just the day before yesterday..."
While she was seriously thinking about Su's name, she actually wanted her first child to be named Ning. After listening to it for a while, Ning Yi stood outside the window and smiled, feeling a little moved...
