As May is coming to an end, the weather is getting even hotter. The rising temperatures and dates are pushing this city step by step towards the dog days of summer. In previous years, Su Tan'er would have had to move upstairs a month earlier.
Although the day is hot, if you open the windows at night, it will be much cooler on the second floor after all. However, she did not order the room to be moved this year, and Ning Yi followed her. She didn't say, Ning Yi didn't care, so naturally he wouldn't
A servant came over to help move the furniture up.
In the evening, we had dinner in the living room—sometimes we would move to the small pavilion in the yard to eat. The five of us were just a small family. We were familiar with each other, the atmosphere was good, and we didn’t have to pay too much attention to the rules.
Ning Yi himself is easy-going, and Su Tan'er may pay more attention to red tape than him in many aspects, but she also likes this feeling at home. After the three maids adapted to Ning Yi's style, they would occasionally say that my uncle was here today.
The stories told in the school are not pleasant, and most of these stories were relayed from Xiaochan's mouth.
When the weather gets hot, I won't stay in the room after meals, and will probably go out for a walk. The Su Mansion is quite large and has its own small garden. Most of the time, I still hang out here to enjoy the cool weather. Su Tan'er will hang out with the women in the other rooms.
They talked and chatted. She used to be a relatively serious person, coming in and out with her maids every day. Most of the men in the other rooms could not chat with her, and it was even harder for those women to get close to her. At this time, it was probably
Now that she is a woman, she occasionally joins in some topics, and others say that Su Tan'er has become softer since she got married, so they somewhat admire Ning Yi.
Nowadays, in the Su Mansion, few people are really stupid enough to give Ning Yi a look. He has a talent, and the old lady also takes it seriously. The matter about him going to the Wenmo Tower during the Oiran Competition has also made others afraid to write lyrics.
The news spread, and he himself seemed to be easy-going and peaceful, staying in school and not getting involved in business. Others thought that after getting married, Su Tan'er would only become more powerful by having a husband-in-law, but they did not expect that the two of them get along harmoniously now.
, very presentable. When meeting Ning Yi, it is inevitable to say hello and say a few words. For example, Wen Ding, Wen Fang and others are even more respectful. Of course, it is difficult to say warm, not
People on the same level can only be said to be close to each other.
In short, by the time I got to Xia Tian, I had become more or less acquaintances with the entire Su family.
Generally speaking, Su Tan'er is still busy, but Ning Yi doesn't need to worry about these things, and she doesn't need Ning Yi to worry about them either. They meet on the second floor every few days, eat, complain and relieve stress, her
His mentality is still good, he is just busy. Occasionally Ning Yi will go for a walk in the evening, and sometimes Xiaochan will follow him all the way to the Qinhuai River. If Xiaochan doesn't follow, he will go to the small courtyard next to the school.
, meet Lu Hongti.
After returning home at night, Su Tan'er would ask someone to bring bowls of iced bean paste or other iced snacks. The Su Mansion stores ice cubes every year for summer, and only the masters can eat them. Su Tan'er's
The small courtyard next to her has the best treatment. After all, she is the only one who takes over the big room. Xiaochan and the others often don't miss out on these snacks. They eat this iced snack with Su Taner and Ning Yi at night. It is probably the best thing every day.
When you are comfortable, other people in the house, even the head of the family, have to think carefully every time they want to eat a bowl.
After eating, the temperature has actually dropped. Occasionally chatting, occasionally playing chess, and occasionally everyone has their own things to do. Until the lights gradually go out at night, and the lights in Su Tan'er's room go out, Ning Yi goes to bed, letting
The yard became quiet.
He has never stopped running and exercising every morning before dawn, and probably not many people will notice that he has this habit. When he ran to the river bend with a small building, Nie Yunzhu sat on the steps
He was waiting for him at the top. Zhuji's business was going very well. There were already some obvious regular and repeat customers at the main store. The way the four carts handed out wooden plaques also seemed interesting. Some people walked around the city in order to collect the four wooden plaques.
I've been looking for it for a long time, and it's probably some sort of card-collecting fun.
Of course, at present, the most important income is not provided by the main store and the four cars, but the Zhuji Songhua Eggs are still being rolled out at high speed to various restaurants in Jiangning. At this time, Nie Yunzhu no longer needs to go there in person to discuss these businesses.
Now, she has hired a lot of employees. Ning Yi has set some relatively mature rules and regulations for the operation of these personnel, which can greatly reduce the burden of control. With the promotion of the Oiran Competition, many restaurants in Jiangning have tea
There are already stores selling preserved eggs on consignment, and various high-consumption brothels are also opening up. Everything is developing rapidly, but surprisingly steadily.
Of course, most of the time, Nie Yunzhu will not report business-related things to Ning Yi. What she likes to talk about is some new and trivial things. When the store opens, new things happen every day. She has never seen it before.
I heard it, and it was quite interesting. Sometimes I would mention the marriage between Hutao and Erniu, and I planned to arrange it with them in a while, so I could forget about it.
Still maintaining the habit of just sitting and chatting on the steps, the lights in the back room were dimly lit. Nie Yunzhu would take a plate to make a pot of tea and leave it on the steps. When Ning Yi came over, he would drink a small amount of tea.
Cup, say something, and watch him leave. It was the morning light, and the city gradually appeared in outline as the figure left.
Because of Lu Hongti, Ning Yi doesn't go to the river often to play chess this month, but of course he goes a few times. Mr. Qin has been paying attention to floods recently. It's the flood season now, and it is said that the situation in several places is in emergency.
, several rivers have burst their banks, and we don’t know what will happen.
"This is not a good year..." the old man sighed. If Kang Xian came over, he would often say the same thing.
"If this continues, I'm afraid there will be another wave of victims in July..."
Droughts, floods, winter ice disasters, and banditry in some places. Today's social structure is difficult to survive these obstacles. Every few years, some disasters often occur. If refugees are homeless and cannot be controlled,
, since he came to the rich places such as Bianliang, Jiangning, and Yangzhou in the east, Mr. Qin always thought about it and put down his chess pieces: "Maybe there will be a military disaster..."
The situation in the Liao and Jin Dynasties seems to be on the verge of breaking out. Of course, it is difficult to say whether it will be completely turbulent in months or years. When the time comes, the Wu Dynasty will have an attitude no matter what. If a fight breaks out this time, it will also affect the military affairs.
To support the national destiny, the army has not moved, and food and grass have gone first. If we want to support such a large-scale and thorough war, it will be another test for today's country.
"No matter what, after the fight is over, things will get better." Regarding this matter, the two old men are relatively optimistic. In fact, the entire Wu Dynasty is very optimistic. Wu Dynasty still has a good economic and agricultural foundation, and the entire structure
Although it is bloated, a big burden comes from the north. If the north can be settled, the whole court will be relieved. When the time comes, there will be hope and room for rectification and reform.
Every afternoon, I do experiments in the small courtyard and chat with Lu Hongti about some things. If it involves martial arts, I will occasionally take notes and write them down, and Lu Hongti will laugh at him. In fact, Lu Hongti has often mentioned him to start with recently.
Something like that, looking at the weird containers and devices he designed, what she can help with is not the chemical reaction, but the equipment for making high-alcohol wine. Since Zhuji has started to go on track, he also has to make high-alcohol wine.
, after it was perfected, we set up a small workshop and launched it as the signature of Zhuji.
Distilling and making wine is not complicated for him. He started in March. At first he made a small device, and then he started to enlarge and improve it. This is the basic technology. What changes will be made to the distilled liquor in the future?
That's not her own business, just leave it to others. Lu Hongti can drink. Although she doesn't seem to be rough, she does drink very slowly. However, after drinking the first drinkable glass of white wine, she still
He frowned: "This wine... is so strong..."
Because she was interested in wine, she was more willing to help. Occasionally asking questions, Ning Yi would talk to her about distillation, vaporization and liquefaction. The other party still regarded these things as evil, but his attitude had already changed.
A lot of changes: "These things about you... are of some use..."
"It's not perfect yet, it's barely usable. You can make a copy when you leave, but..."
"There is not much food in the mountains that can be used to make wine... Sometimes we rob some merchants, and the wine is finished in a short time. Drinking from big bowls seems like a lot, but if you steam it, there won't be much left..."
Lu Hongti felt slightly melancholy.
"You should consider steaming a batch. It can be used for disinfection after being injured. Those with low degrees are useless." When it comes to disinfection, Ning Yi started to talk nonsense about infections, bacteria and the like.
Talking about those tiny bugs that are invisible to the naked eye, crawling into the body in thousands, some with eight arms, some with hairy hair, Lu Hongti frowned when he heard it. Then he asked: "That medicine of yours"
It’s very good, it doesn’t look like there are many scars, how did you do it?”
"Part of it is because of the martial arts. Of course, if you want, I can give you a copy when you leave. There are some medicines that are hard to find." Lu Hongti glanced at him, "But, after all, are you planning to get the martial arts secret book?
Or do you plan to ask for the formula?”
"Aren't you going to teach me martial arts... Well, I have to think about it."
"I still don't plan to teach." Lu Hongti said and laughed, "It's useless for you to learn. As a teacher, those students won't be afraid of you."
"But they love me."
"You are a good person...although you are a little weird, you are indeed a good person."
"Ahem, you don't have to stress it again."
As time passed, her injuries were gradually getting better, and the secret sentries in Jiangning City must have begun to relax. It was hard to say when she would leave: "Dragon Babu, it's almost time to talk about it, right?" She asked about the progress in the past few days,
"I want to listen to it before I leave." Ning Yi understands her character. Although she seems to like listening to these stories now, drinking white wine and eating snacks, once the time comes to leave, she will definitely leave decisively.
Because she still has a lot of things to do over there in Luliang Mountain.
Ning Yi was a businessman in his previous life, but he was not a ruthless person. Now he regards her as an interesting friend. He can brag about atoms and molecules with her and pick up some things to chat with her for a while in the evening. The days are leisurely.
There was nothing urgent to do, not much burden, and so it was until the evening of the fourth day of June.
Xiaochan had something to do tonight, so she said hello to Lu Hongti and said that she would bring some wine and food over in the evening. After dinner in the evening, she left the Su Mansion and prepared to buy some food on the way. When passing through a slightly secluded street, a truck pulled firewood
The carriage followed him, and the big man on it greeted him: "Hello, Ning Yi, Ning Liheng?"
The big man was really tall. Sitting on the carriage, Ning Yi raised his head. Something was wrong in his heart, because there was no good intention in the other person's eyes. His vigilance was rising, and he didn't have time to start.
Thinking about this look, the wind roared and hit me from the back of my head.
"Weak scholar..."
As night fell, Lu Hongti was waiting for Ning Yi's arrival in the yard, with the wind chimes ringing softly.
It has been nearly a month since she stayed here to recuperate, and she feels a little nostalgic when she thinks about it. In the past, this was probably unimaginable. Her life has been interesting in the past month, but in a few days, it is time for her to return to Luliang.
, after that... I probably won’t have a chance to come here again.
Time gradually passed. Maybe something happened to him... She thought in her heart. This is not surprising. Although he has never missed appointments in the past few times, she now knows his specific identity. It is normal if something happens and he cannot come over, but it is a pity.
I can't hear the story tonight. I hope I can finish it in the next few days.
So she waited a little longer, and then walked into the room feeling slightly disappointed, and began to eat the lunch dishes that were cooling in the basin and the cold steamed buns. For her, there was nothing to fault.
The things are delicacies...
