Tang Yaojing's marriage was ruined by herself. In the past, people in Lingzhou knew that the daughter of the Tang family was different from other ladies in the family. She didn't like poetry and songs, but only liked swords, guns, swords and halberds.
Now they also know that the daughter of the Tang family is very violent, but she caught the thief who stole ten cents and almost beat him to death.
That day, the little thief's face was covered in blood, his eyes were rolled back, and he was foaming at the mouth. Many people on the street saw this scene, which was simply shocking.
Of course, the inhumanity of the second son of the Bai family has also become the gossip in Lingzhou City in recent days.
Tang Ning didn't know if the Bai family was affected in any way, but since then, no matchmaker has come to the Tang family's door.
Fairy Tang didn't care at all about this, she was jumping around every day, her movements over the wall became more skillful, and her tricks became more diverse.
When she understood the mental techniques, taught him and told him to practice diligently even after leaving Lingzhou, Tang Ning realized that tomorrow was New Year's Eve.
He carried a jar of wine and delivered it to the old beggar again. He looked at him and said, "Senior, please prepare. In two days, we will set off."
"I just brought a wine gourd. There is nothing to prepare." The old beggar took the wine jar and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm going to cause you trouble along the way."
"No trouble." Tangning waved her hand and said, "Senior has not yet repaid the favor of giving me the secret book. This is what I should do."
Although the third uncle didn't know why Tang Ning brought this old beggar with her to the capital, he knew that Tang Ning must have his intentions, and his attitude toward the old beggar improved. He directly showed it by giving him a drawer of buns for free every day.
The third uncle patted him on the shoulder and said, "Take the test well. When I come back with a top score, I will change the name of the shop to "Zhuang Yuan Baozi Shop". The business will be good."
The third aunt rolled her eyes at him and said, "Let's see what you can do, and you can still be the "No. 1 bun shop". It's Xiao Ning who got the No. 1 prize, not you, so why are you so proud?"
The third uncle glanced at his mouth and said, "We are all one family, why do we care about all this?"
Tang Ning smiled, looked at them and said, "Tomorrow, New Year's Eve, my uncle and aunt will come over in the evening. Let's get together and make it more lively."
Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and what matters is a reunion. Xiaoru was forced to stay at home by his mother-in-law, leaving only his third uncle and his third aunt. When Tangning came out, his mother-in-law specifically told him to invite his third uncle and third aunt tomorrow night.
Aunt, come here.
"Okay!" The third uncle nodded happily, turned to look at Butcher Zheng and said, "Old Zheng, remember to save a few kilograms of lean meat tomorrow, pure and fresh, for making dumplings."
Butcher Zheng waved his hand and said, "I'll keep it for you. Remember to come and get it before night."
Tangning looked at the old beggar again and said, "Senior, tomorrow night you..."
The old beggar waved his hand and said: "I won't join in the fun. I will spend tomorrow night with Liu Laoer and the others."
Because of Tang Ning's relationship, Liu Lao Er and others now treat the old beggar with respect. He has become the number one person under Tang Ning in the Beggar Clan.
A few days ago, he casually taught Liu Laoer and the others a set of combined attack techniques, which can be practiced by four to ten beggars. It is said that after they become proficient, ten people can form a formation to deal with ordinary little masters.
This was in line with Tang Ning's intention. Although the Beggar Clan had a large number of people and could win a fight simply by relying on their numbers, if they were just a ragtag group of people forever, it would be difficult to manage and they wouldn't be able to accomplish anything big.
He has already told Liu Lao Er not to accept beggars all at once, but to set rules for them. Beggars should not be lazy people who are lazy and do not know the rules. Ren Pingsheng, as Liu Lao Er's assistant, not only has acting skills
You know, the ideological realm is not comparable to that of ordinary beggars. Tang Ning entrusted him with the important task of unifying his thoughts and helping the disciples of the Beggar Clan establish a correct outlook on life and values.
By now, most of the beggars in Lingzhou City have been recruited by them. After this year, it will be time to gradually expand outside the city.
…
This is Tang Ning's first year in this world. After today, he will stay in Lingzhou for at least two more days before setting off for the capital.
It's not yet evening, the house is already decorated with lights and colorful lights, and people are busy coming and going under the maids.
Fairy Tang is also celebrating New Year's Eve at the Zhong Mansion tonight. Before Tang Ning came here, this had been an annual ritual for the Tang family and the Zhong family.
Father-in-law and Rich Man Tang were playing chess in the study room. Tang Ning only found out today that Rich Man Tang, although he looked like a nouveau riche, seemed to have been educated before, and then gave up writing and started doing business for some unknown reason. He was less than 20 years old.
In a matter of years, the Tang family's current family business was established.
In the study, Tang Ji dropped a chess piece and asked casually, "When will your uncle leave?"
"Just two more days." Zhong Mingli replied. After making the move, he took a sip of tea while Tang Ji was thinking, and asked casually: "Yao Yao's marriage hasn't been decided yet?"
Rich Man Tang shook his head and said: "Never mind, let Yaoyao make her own decision about her marriage."
Zhong Mingli put down the tea cup and said: "I know you love her, but marriage matters have been ordered by parents since ancient times. As the matchmaker said, Yaoyao is not young anymore. How can you, a father, not think about her?
Can’t you expect others to think about her?”
Rich Man Tang smiled, stopped continuing the topic, and said: "Your uncle is the winner of the Yuan Dynasty in Yizhou, and he was awarded the award by His Majesty himself. How can he be a Jinshi when he comes to Beijing this time?"
Zhong Mingli nodded and said: "The provincial examination has not started yet, and the results are not expected, but I know his ability very well. It is not a big problem to get a Jinshi."
Rich Man Tang looked at him and asked: "So, after he leaves this time, it is unlikely that he will return to Lingzhou?"
Zhong Mingli shook his head and said: "Even if he is awarded an official, he will have a long enough vacation. He can still come back and stay for at least half a year."
"That's it..." Mr. Tang's face looked a little disappointed and he waved his hand, "Stop talking about this and play chess..."
Zhong Mingli dropped another chess piece and asked, "What do you think about Yaoyao's marriage?"
…
Today my mother-in-law cooks by herself, and my third aunt and the cook are in the kitchen helping her prepare the ingredients for the evening.
Su Ru and Zhong Yi were outside making dumplings, while Tang Ning and Tang Yaoyao were helping. Although Tang Yaoyao was not good at cooking, her hands-on skills were not limited. Among the others, she made the most beautiful dumplings.
This was probably the most lively New Year's Eve that Tang Ning had ever had in her entire life.
At a large table, Chen Yuxian looked at everyone and said with a smile: "We are all one family, you don't have to be polite tonight..."
Tang Ning knows that her mother-in-law likes to have fun, and what she cares about the most on weekdays is whether her father-in-law will come back for dinner. This kind of happy reunion scene is her favorite.
Sooner or later, Xiao Ru will become a family, so it's okay to say so. Forget Tang Yaojing, anyone who is a family with her will never have peace in their lives.
After New Year's Eve, people generally didn't go out on the first day of the new year. Tang Ning spent a day with Zhong Yi and Su Ru at home. On the second day of the second year, their mother-in-law took them to the temple to offer incense and pray for blessings, and he accompanied them the whole time.
The third day of the lunar month was the day he set off.
This trip to the capital was accompanied by Peng Chen in addition to the old beggar. Ever since he accidentally saw the old beggar show his hand, Peng Chen had no objections to this business trip.
Zhong Mingli was telling Peng Chen something, and Chen Yuxian stepped forward and told Tang Ning: "Be careful when you go out, try to take the official road, stay in a hotel at night, and be careful. When you arrive in the capital, write home immediately
letter……"
Tangning smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mom, I understand."
Chen Yuxian nodded, looked at Zhong Yi and Su Ru, turned around and backed away.
Zhong Yi looked at him with some worry in his eyes, and said softly: "Be careful along the way."
Su Ru handed him a bag and said, "Brother Xiao Ning, I've packed up the changes of clothes and things you'll need on the road."
Tangning looked at them, took their hands, held them together, and said, "Wait for my good news."
Fang Xiaopang ran over from behind. The two women's faces turned red and they immediately let go of his hands.
Fang Xiaopang put a big baggage into his hand and said, "Take these with you and eat them on the way."
The burden was bigger than what Su Ru had packed. Tang Ning looked at her and touched her head. The fat Fang in front of him was no longer the chubby girl who competed with him for the last piece of cake.
Tang Yaoyao was the last one to step forward, took out a sign from his arms and threw it to him, saying: "Our family also has a shop in the capital. No matter what happens, you can go to them with this sign."
After she finished speaking, she took another step forward and whispered: "When you go to the capital, you have to control yourself and don't mess around with others - I said this for the two of them."
Tangning glanced at her and whispered, "Do I look like someone who's a philanderer?"
Tang Yaoyao nodded: "Like."
It's true that the princess is not in a hurry, but the palace maid is. Tangning looked at her, then turned to look at everyone, and waved her hand: "Let's go..."
"Goodbye!" Fang Xiaopang waved to him vigorously.
Tangning opened the car curtain and looked in a certain direction until those figures completely disappeared from the end of his sight.
He put down the car curtain, sighed, and murmured: "The capital..."
