In the small courtyard of Zhong Mansion, Tang Ning put down a thick copy of "Chen Lv" and rubbed her sore eyes.
In addition to the meaning of the scriptures, the law is also within the scope of this examination.
It is really too much for the body to make up for what others have learned in ten or eight years in one month.
Although all he had to do was read the entire book once, the amount of effort he expended was several times that of an ordinary person, and the amount of energy he expended was even more.
Zhong Yi and Xiao Ru went out, and no one cooked for him today.
Xiao Ru is proficient in embroidery, and the things she embroiders can be sold at high prices in the city. These days, she and Zhong Yi have also met some wealthy and talented women. Today, at their invitation, she went to teach them embroidery.
It took Tang Ning a whole day to read through this thick book "Chen Lv", and her wrists were sore from flipping through the pages.
He started to feel hungry, so he stood up and planned to go to the kitchen to find something to eat.
Suddenly there was a strange noise from the direction of the courtyard wall. When Tang Ning turned around, she happened to see Tang Yaoyao jumping down from the courtyard wall.
Ever since he climbed onto Tang Yaojing's courtyard wall last time, she rarely used the main entrance when she came over on weekdays.
Fairy Tang did not come here empty-handed this time. She was carrying a food box in her hand. She opened the food box and placed it on the stone table in the yard.
In addition to a stack of pastries, there were two plates of side dishes and a whole chicken. Tangning smelled the aroma, swallowed, looked at her and asked, "What are these for?"
Tang Yaoyao waved her hand and said, "Xiao Ru and Xiao Zhi are not interested. I know you must be hungry. Let the kitchen cook some food. Eat."
Tang Ning thought about it carefully and found that he had not done anything to offend Fairy Tang recently. She would not be so bored that she would poison her food or put laxatives in her food. It would not be possible for her to spit on her food.
That means she has something to ask of him.
Showing courtesy for nothing, committing adultery or stealing, Tang Ning did not believe that Fairy Tang would be so kind as to know that he was hungry, and have someone prepare a meal and deliver it over the wall.
But he was really hungry, and the chicken was roasted golden and looked very tempting.
He tore off a chicken leg, looked at Tang Yaoyao, and asked, "Tell me, what's going on?"
"No..." Tang Yaoyao looked at him, shook her head and said, "I just thought that you were tired from studying, and they were not around, so I sent you something to eat..."
Since she didn't say anything, Tangning wouldn't be stupid enough to ask questions on her own and just eat chicken and vegetables. While he was eating, Tang Yaoyao was watching from the side.
He finished a plate of pastries, two plates of side dishes, and a whole chicken. He looked at Tang Yaoyao and said, "I'm full."
Tang Yaoyao nodded.
Tangning looked at her and said, "I'm going to continue reading."
Tang Yaoyao sat down next to him, thought for a while, and said, "You have been reading for the past half month. Even if you are preparing for an exam, you have to balance work and rest..."
Tangning sighed and said, "Tell me, what do you want to see me for?"
"I'm going to attend a poetry meeting tonight."
Tangning thought she heard wrongly.
Tang Yaoying's participation in the poetry meeting was, in his opinion, just like Zhong Yi's fight for the leader of the martial arts alliance. "Tang Yaoyao" and "poetry meeting" were two completely unrelated words with no connection at all.
He looked at Tang Yaoyao and said worriedly: "Are you okay? We are all friends. If you encounter anything, just say it. Don't let it go..."
Tang Yaoyao looked at him and said, "I'm not confused."
Tangning thought for a while and said, "That means you are sick. Before it gets too late, I will take you to see Dr. Sun..."
"Oh, my father insisted on letting me go." Tang Yaoyao looked extremely depressed and said, "I don't want to go to this stupid poetry meeting. If it weren't for that Wu Yuanwai who was looking for trouble..."
Tangning didn't know whether it was Rich Man Tang who had sinned and gave birth to such a daughter, or whether Tang Yaoyao was unlucky enough to meet such a father.
One is looking forward to her daughter becoming a phoenix and wholeheartedly wants to train her daughter to be a gentle and talented woman. The other is just a fisherman, going further and further on the road of illiterate heroine...
The Wu family is also a wealthy business family in Lingzhou. Although it is not as wealthy as the Tang family, it is not far behind. The two families usually compete with each other in the business field, and their relationship is not considered good.
The Wu family and the Tang family are in a competitive relationship in the business world. They have similar financial resources, and they are neighbors. They both happen to have a daughter...
As a result, the two families naturally inevitably compare themselves with each other on business, financial resources, and daughters...
The Wu family is not as good as the Tang family in terms of business and financial resources, but their daughter...
Tang Yaoyao can beat ten young ladies of the Wu family by herself, but in this era, the standard for judging a woman is not whether she can beat her.
Although the Miss Wu family is not very talented, she can also recite poems and write lyrics. She formed a small group with several friends in the circle, invited some talented women to come over, held a poetry meeting at home, exchanged beauty experiences, and recited a few poems when she was interested.
A poem can be regarded as joining the circle of talented women.
The rich man of the Tang Dynasty wanted Tang Yaoyao to be more influenced by this culture, so he asked her to recite poems and participate in poetry gatherings...
Tangning looked at her and said helplessly: "According to what you said, all the people passing by tonight are women, so I can't do anything to help you..."
"There's no need for you to go there..." Tang Yaoyao explained: "The Wu family is right next to our house. I have already checked it out. There is only a wall between that garden and my yard. When the time comes, you can stay with me first."
s room……"
Tangning didn't want to go to such trouble, so she said, "I'll write a song for you first. At night, you can just take it out. The song will cost one hundred taels, and the money will be deducted from the money I owe you..."
"No way..." Tang Yaoyao shook her head and said: "They said that the topic can only be decided after drawing lots. What word cards are they going to draw? What are the word cards?"
Tang Ning felt that she had not participated in any poetry gathering at all. Tang Yaoyao who could compose poetry was not Tang Yaoyao.
He shook his head and said, "But I still want to read at night."
"Where can I read without reading?" Tang Yaoyao pointed to another place separated by a wall and said: "You can read in my room at night. I will find time to come over to you later..."
How could a girl's boudoir be allowed to be entered casually? Tangning looked confused: "Isn't this bad..."
Tang Yaoyao thought for a while and said: "My father said that if we can defeat Wu Wenting tonight and make Wu Yuanwai not proud in front of him tomorrow, he will reward me with a thousand taels of silver and give you half of it?"
When a friend is in trouble, it is your duty to do so.
If you still owe this friend a thousand taels of silver, you cannot refuse.
Tangning thought for a moment and said, "When should we go there?"
"Now." Tang Yaoyao's face showed joy, "I'm going to Wu's house soon. You go there first and prepare in my room..."
Being grabbed by Tang Yaoyao and flying over the courtyard wall, Tang Ning always felt weird, as if she was stealing someone behind Zhong Yi and Xiao Ru's back.
…
This was Tang Ning's first time entering Tang Yaoyao's boudoir.
Although she is usually very carefree and informal, her room is kept clean, neat and spotless.
What surprised Tangning the most was that there was a bookshelf in her room, and it was densely packed with books.
From classics and history to poetry, there is no shortage of everything.
Most of the books are new, except for a few fantasy novels in the corner, which look like they have been turned over frequently.
"Miss, Sister Cui and the others are here to find you..."
The little maid's voice sounded from outside. Tang Yaoyao walked to the door, waved her hand and said, "I understand, let them wait for a while, I will be here soon..."
She walked to Tang Ning and said, "You read here first, I'm leaving..."
Tangning waved her hand and took down a book from the bookshelf.
He read books all day today, and now he has no interest or energy to read those things. He just happened to read a few novels to relax.
Tang Yaoyao walked to the door and seemed to have thought of something, then turned back and said: "Just sit there and don't mess with my things..."
Tang Ning curled her lips. Fairy Tang looked down on him too much and looked down on herself too much.
What's there to dig through her things? Could it be that he would wear her clothes secretly while she was away?
Or are you worried that he will turn her bellyband out to admire her?
Tang Nuxia is really worried this time. A man cannot do that kind of thing, not to mention, her maid Xiu'er is still watching from the side...
