Chapter 27 The height of several floors

"Business is still not good..."

At the intersection where the wind and snow fell, Ning Yi said with a smile while eating the pancake in his hand. Nie Yunzhu next to him looked at the unsold pancakes in the car, pursed his lips slightly, and then clapped his hands helplessly.

: "On a snowy day, not many people come to buy."

"I told you a long time ago that I asked you to wait until spring to consider these things, right? You're at a disadvantage now."

"It's hard to think about what you have decided. Of course you have to do it quickly. If you wait for a few months, you may become lazy. Who knows what you will be thinking about by then."

"Oh, I think you just want to try out what it's like to set up a stall..."

Although Ning Yi had never been here after Nie Yunzhu set up his stall, Ning Yi insisted on exercising every day even if it snowed. Every morning on the steps in front of the small building, the two of them would talk for a while.

Nowadays, they have become more casual with each other. Nie Yunzhu's cake stall is not doing well, so Ning Yi naturally knows that he might comfort him a few days ago, and he will inevitably make some jokes after a while.

As he said, the reason why Nie Yunzhu set up this stall was not because of the pressure of life - of course there may be part of the reason - but more of it, it was still just a way to adapt himself to a more ordinary and ordinary lifestyle.

It's just hard work. The family's financial resources are not really in a difficult situation. At least for this period of time, she is still enjoying it.

"...Yesterday, I saw a few people throwing down on the other side of the street, and then they almost got into a fight. They said they were from some kind of escort agency... And a few days ago, the sign of the shop over there was smashed down, and they almost hit someone... Hutao originally

They are here with me, but Erniu also came over just now, so I asked them to buy some rice and noodles. I deliberately said something, probably asking them to walk from here to the East Market and letting them grow alone.

some time……"

Ning Yi was eating pancakes, and Nie Yunzhu was chatting beside her about what she had seen in the past few days. Ning Yi also chatted with her for a while. After a while, no one came to the pancake stall. Ning Yi smiled and patted her.

Snowflakes on the body: "This business, let's close the stall. Anyway, you can sell more during the morning time, so why keep it next to me now."

As he spoke, he picked up a small bench on the ground and threw it into the car. Nie Yunzhu waved his hand: "No, I might be able to sell a few more, and this car... I can't push it. It's snowing now, every morning and evening."

They were all pushed by Er Niu..."

"As long as I can push it."

"Mr. Ning...you really don't pay attention to your appearance. How can any scholar do this..."

"There's nothing wrong with appearance..." Ning Yi laughed, "Besides, the things I asked you to do a few days ago are almost done today. There is still time now, just in time to see the results. If the results are good, maybe you can

This bakery stall will be saved."

"It's just some salted duck eggs, you added too little salt..." Nie Yunzhu curled his lips and said with a smile, but after hearing Ning Yi talk about this, he no longer objected and went to an old woman who was also selling pastries next to him.

Ask her to help leave a message, and then come over to pack things with Ning Yi. After a while, she explained her reasoning to Ning Yi in a somewhat profound and proud manner.

"Actually, Hutao and I are not familiar with these things. Until the day we can sell well and make money, it will take a long time to get used to it. So I thought, if I do it in winter,

If you do less every day, you will end up spending less rice and noodles. Maybe you will be able to make money in the spring. If you start in the spring, it will be a waste. You will be familiar with it in the summer, so it is better to do it early."

"You know a lot." Ning Yi smiled, "I think you really want to marry Hu Tao as soon as possible, right?"

"I have also considered this." The two pushed the car and headed home through the snow. Nie Yunzhu chuckled, "In the early years, I thought that the two sisters would depend on each other, but after all, it was impossible to do this.

. Now that she can find her own destination, I am also happy for her. Oh, when she was with Er Niu, she always wanted to hide it from me. Later, Er Niu had the courage to come over and propose marriage. I found out that she was worried about me.

A person cannot take care of herself, so she has been unwilling to marry. Since I regard her as my sister, I can't hold her down for too long."

"Haha, I'm afraid you might marry Erniu with Hu Tao in the future..."

Nie Yunzhu did not shy away from such jokes. He pursed his lips and smiled, as if he had thought about it seriously. Then he shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it won't work. Erniu has a simple and honest temper. He is a good person, but he can't talk to me.

If I marry him, I'm afraid I'll be able to treat him with respect in the first few years, but I'm afraid I'll be beaten and scolded in a few years. By then, it will be Hutao who is the most difficult to make."

"Gap." Ning Yi nodded.

Along the way, we passed through the hustle and bustle of the bustling city, the courtyard walls and gates surrounded by snow in the residential areas, the silver trees and ice flowers on the Qinhuai River, the painted houses and boats docked on the shore, and strings of ice formed, and the water palace and dragon palace

It seems that the number of pedestrians is gradually decreasing, and the two of them are chatting. They are like a young couple who ran a sesame seed cake stall and are now closing the stall and going home. My husband must be an industrious scholar and a rotten scholar. He would like to come out to help in this kind of way.

Putting on a beautiful robe, the wife is diligent and virtuous. She runs a sesame cake stall every day to earn money to supplement the family's income. She is looking forward to the day when the husband of the family will go to high school, get an official position, and honor the ancestors... When passing by a road, a horse-drawn carriage came quickly from behind.

, the charioteer in the car waved his whip: "Drive, drive... get out of the way, get out of the way... don't block the road -" Ning Yi pushed the car and Nie Yunzhu to the side of the road and stopped. When the carriage passed by, the driver was still fierce

After glaring at him, he exhaled and said from behind: "Then I'm still sorry~" Nie Yunzhu lowered his head, pursed his lips and chuckled.

Humming some random song melody in his mouth, Ning Yi pushed the car and continued walking. Nie Yunzhu looked at the back of the car for a while, then quickly followed and pushed it on the side of the car.

"I often hear Mr. Ning singing these tunes all the time. I don't know what the tune is."

"Singing blindly is similar to the little tunes sung by people in the mountains. Uh... ballads..."

Ning Yi described it, and Nie Yunzhu chuckled: "Russian folk songs, I've learned this before... Hey, brother, why don't you come... Pfft... These are not the same as Mr. Ning's tunes.

…”

She lowered her voice and sang a sentence. Her voice was as clear as water and quite pleasant to the ear. But after all, the street was not the place to sing like this. She just lowered her voice. She blushed slightly, then covered her mouth and laughed.

Ning Yi nodded, then looked at her: "By the way, you are very good at singing and playing the piano, right?"

In the past, when the two of them talked, although Nie Yunzhu claimed to entertain people with sex, there didn't seem to be much grudge against her, but Ning Yi could naturally tell that she didn't like these entertaining things, so she never mentioned them. Since he came here, he has never mentioned them.

I had been to some brothel and Chu Pavilion. Although I guessed that Nie Yunzhu was a famous prostitute, I really couldn't imagine how "famous" it was. By this time, it probably didn't matter anymore, so I just asked this question. Nie Yunzhu also nodded.

Nodding: "Well, it actually took a lot of effort to fall down."

"So... powerful? Master?"

"Pfft... I guess so..." Naturally, it was impossible for others to ask such questions like Ning Yi. Nie Yunzhu found it interesting and laughed. Then he smiled solemnly and nodded seriously, "Well, I am a master!"

"Oh, how high is it?"

The tight smile on the other side broke down instantly: "It's several floors high..." Thinking of the joke Ning Yi made some time ago, Nie Yunzhu replied, "What are you doing?"

Just as they were joking, the cart had already arrived at the door of Mr. Qin. Unexpectedly, Kang Xian was coming today. As soon as the sedan stopped at the roadside, Mr. Qin also went out. The two of them looked at him in surprise.

, and then laughed, not knowing what he said, Ning Yi waved and said hello over there. Kang Xian then said to this side: "Li Heng, why is this? Do you want to help?" Several of his followers

He's right next to me, so if you need help, you can come over at any time.

Ning Yi stopped the car a few meters away and shook his head: "It's okay." Then he nodded to the woman next to him: "Nie Yunzhu... Mr. Qin, Mr. Kang... let's play chess over there..."

After such an introduction, Nie Yunzhu bowed and bowed. After a brief greeting, Ning Yi asked, "Will Mr. Kang be here later?"

Kang Xian nodded: "Bring a few good things. We should be here in the afternoon. If Li Heng is free, he can come over with Miss Nie later and enjoy some calligraphy and paintings."

Ning Yi laughed: "Oh, it just so happens that I will bring some good things over later, so we can study them together."

"So good."

After saying these words, Ning Yi said goodbye and pushed the car forward. When he turned the corner of the street in front, Nie Yunzhu's smile had stopped: "Young Master just asked about music..."

"Oh, I was mainly thinking that if I have some songs that can be sung, could you help me compose a piano piece or something."

Nie Yunzhu nodded and showed a confident smile: "There should be no problem, at least in this matter, whether it is various poems and songs, or the folk songs that the young master just mentioned, if Yunzhu can't do it, I'm afraid

There are only a few people in the entire Jiangning city who can do it."

"Wow, it's really several floors high..." Ning Yi could roughly estimate the level of the other party, and squinted his eyes to express his admiration.

"Yeah, it's at least four or five stories high. If you fall, you'll be killed by that height."

"Then don't worry." Ning Yi thought about it, and then added, "However, I'm afraid the lyrics are a bit strange. It's just a casual singing among a few people. I'm afraid you won't be able to reach a high level. You

You have to be mentally prepared.”

Nie Yunzhu nodded: "Yes."

Then, the small building by the river got closer.
