In the past few days, for Su Chonghua, there have been some strange emotions occasionally passing through his mind, and even he himself can't say what the specific reasons are during this period.

For a long time, due to the attention of the old lady, Su Chonghua's status in the Su family has always been not low, and because the real manager of Yushan Academy is Su Zhongkan, for several years, he can also be regarded as an important participant in the second room of the Su family. Recently, the second and third rooms have joined forces to make a move on the big house, preparing to eliminate the thin but most threatening one in the Su family, and he is also involved. Occasionally, at various gatherings, talk about the current situation in the second room of the Su family, although the external troubles have not been eliminated, but at least the internal worries have been settled, and a big step forward has been taken on the road of fighting for the real management of the Su family, and everyone's mood is quite happy about this.

Today is a big day. Since getting up in the morning, he has understood such a thing in his heart, and everyone's mood is also a little different, in the early morning, he met Su Zhongkan in the nearby courtyard, and met some other shopkeepers and stewards who were close to the second room, everyone was smiling and smiling.

He also understood that tonight's matter had been decided, Su Tan'er had spent too much money in order to prepare for the affairs of the imperial merchants, but it did not bring any benefits, and now it has also caused the merchants outside to start distrusting the Su family. These things can be brought out tonight. Many people in the Su family worked together, and some elders who originally disagreed with the NV Zi family or were originally a little shaken about it also began to stand on the side of the second and third rooms, and even the third uncle, who had always been strong, was powerless at this time.

However, just when everyone in the second room is full of anticipation, occasionally that emotion will float out, especially when I occasionally see Ning Yi's leisurely and frank figure from the side in the past few days, there will always be some extraneous thoughts in my heart.

Storm ......

What he occasionally remembered was the poem he had seen a few days earlier. That's a really good word.

After all, Su Chonghua still has some real materials, and he is also a well-known literati in Jiangning, and he has written poems and lyrics for so many years, so there are naturally not many poetry works that can make him feel shocked at first sight. It just so happened that Ning Yi's previous two capitals were like this-drinking wine and Pei Di naturally didn't count-so did the first turmoil I saw now. Of course, if he just looks at it alone, he will feel that this poem is just the self-consolation and self-absorption of the literati, and he is obviously a mess but wants to write himself as if he is a winner, and this poem is still hidden and dare not take it out.

But...... Every time I really see Ning Yi, combined with this lyrics, or after seeing some poems written by other people, the feeling will always be a little different. Su Chonghua watched thoughtfully from the side of the private school classroom at this time.

“…… When it comes to the science of calculation, you will only learn this in the afternoon, but I don't want to tell you how to calculate, but some of the logical systems in calculation are the principles and methods of thinking about things, which is very interesting...... In the far west there is a country called Greece, and there is a story there called Zeno's paradox. One day a great hero who was running fast met a turtle, and the turtle said, 'If you race with me, you will never be able to catch up with my .......'"

In front of the classroom, Ning Yi was smiling and lecturing, and the chalk was drawing lines on the blackboard: "The big hero said, no matter how slow I run, my speed is ten times that of yours, how can I not catch up with you." So the turtle said, then let's make an analogy, you are 100 zhang away from me, you are ten times faster than mine, and then you come to chase me, when you run 100 zhang, to my current position, I ran forward 10 zhang, so you continue to chase 10 zhang, but at this time, I ran forward again, after you chased this zhang, I am still in front of you...... You can always get close to me, but you can never catch up with me. The big hero thinks he is right, and the second monk is confused......"

His courses are always like this, obviously talking about some courses such as the mediocrity of the university, and there are a lot of nonsense things to be involved in partial students, but they are usually more interesting, and the new disciple named Zhou Junwu in the back raised his hand and said, "Sir, where is Greece." So Ning Yi smiled again and began to explain Greece.

Looking at such a leisurely figure who almost didn't take today, and didn't even seem to have taken the changes of the Su family in the last month or so in his heart, coupled with the "Fixing the Storm", the strange feeling came up again, he frowned, and for a long time, he turned around and left. , this Liheng, the skill of writing lyrics is really profound, and he can influence him in this way with just one lyric.

Su Chonghua thought in his heart, and then shook his head......

The morning gradually passed, and in the afternoon, some of the Su family's courtyards were full of people, and it was as lively as the end of the year. At this point, the camp has finally begun to become completely distinct, and there is no need to worry too much, just wait for tonight's events. The big room, the second room, the third room, some people are still rushing back one after another.

In the courtyard where Su Yu is located, there are also many visitors today.

“…… I also think that the second girl is in charge of so many things at home, after all, it is too stressful. Of course, everyone also knows her ability, if there is a man in the big house who can take over, even if something happens this time, we think we can let her continue to take care of it. But after all......"

"At this time, the form of these three rooms is really not good to continue to be consumed like this, third brother ......"

"Alas, if Boyong didn't have an accident......"

The room for hospitality is not gorgeous, but it looks calm and graceful, Su Yu sat on the top position, on crutches, closed his eyes and recuperated, and the people below were talking word by word. These are all the old brothers in the family, and tonight's clan meeting, in fact, in the final analysis, it is still up to them to come forward and take this idea. Things to discuss at night, always ventilate at the moment, it is better to discuss the outline first.

Putting aside all kinds of positions and ass issues, they don't know Su Tan'er's ability, but the current situation of the Su family, after all, is a three-room property. Su Boyong fell, there was no way, if Su Tan'er continued to die, I am afraid that in the end, it would become the internal friction of the evil cycle. Su Yu obviously understands these things, but at this time, he has not made a clear statement.

After all, the prestige of this old man is too great, and if he doesn't express his position, it is impossible to have an outline in this matter, and at night, maybe he will have to quarrel. are all old people, most of them don't want this kind of thing to happen, after all, there is Su Yu in charge of the three-room competition, if the old man can't turn around in his heart, he has to stand in the position of Sun NV and fight everyone at night, then this family, the consequences are difficult to say.

Although Su Yu has been very sober all these years, he is old, and no one knows if he will suddenly drill the tip of the horns tonight.

"So, third brother, you have to give a word for these things."

The old seven below were a little anxious, stood up and said, and looked at the rest of the people, and a few other old people also echoed. Su Yu opened his eyes and squinted at them: "What do you say?" ”

"The matter of the second girl, what are you going to do, there must be an accurate number, you speak, we also have a bottom in our hearts......"

"I don't know the bottom of my heart, how can I give you the accurate number?"

"It's not...... Third brother, what happened this time...... You can't be bottomless, everyone has listened to you for so many years. ”

"At night, you have to listen to what the boss, the second, and the third say, what other people say, and what the second girl says, so that this matter is clear, and everyone can see it clearly."

"Third brother, you are talking nonsense, what will they say, of course you will listen to it then, but you will probably know what you will say, if you don't make a statement first, we will ......"

"Seven." The crutches paused on the ground, Su Yu looked at the seventh brother in his early fifties in front of him, and then his eyes softened, and he sighed, "Until the end of the day, no one knows what Lu Dao is like, in short, when the time comes, if it makes sense, you will follow, if it doesn't make sense, you will let it go, everyone doesn't talk nonsense, I can't see this thing clearly now." ”

The old man closed his eyes and continued to recuperate: "Anyway, let's talk about it in the evening." ”

The afternoon sun shone on the mouth of the mén, casting a large area of bright light, and the humming of chatter was followed by the sound of resounding......

Brush, brush, brush, brush, in the slightly remote teahouse, three maids and a few shopkeepers are busy flipping through a lot of books, copying things in front of them, and on the opposite side are a few people who belong to the core of the Wu family, the sun is shining on the eaves, the wind is blowing, and there is occasionally a jiāo talk with the sound of xiǎo.

Su Tan'er sat on the side and drank tea quietly, since the Wu family was soft, everything has been going well, and now the two sides are almost going to form a tacit understanding of cooperation, of course, the side that cooperates will definitely not be happy.

Wu Qilong was also quietly drinking tea not far away, looking at the light spots not far in front of his feet. Since the first day, Wu Chenghou has not come, and it has been Wu Qilong who has been the leader.

"Tonight, I heard that Xue Yan and the others have made an appointment to have dinner at the Yuexiang Building on Persimmon Street, and most of the Lu family and Chen family will also have people." Wu Qilong spat out a mouthful of tea foam, as if talking about something that had nothing to do with him, "They care about this, and their expressions after that may be funny." He said it funny, but the expression on his face was not funny at all. , Su Tan'er was too lazy to use these things to stimulate him, the first day was a-for-tat, first to give people a horse, and then he didn't care about these things: "According to what I said before, other things should be told to me today." ”

Wu Qilong looked to the side: "Later, I will tell you later if I can tell you later, I am happy." ”

"Whatever you want." Su Tan'er turned her gaze to the side, "But if someone is dragged away by you, I can swallow this breath, and my father can't swallow it either." ”

"Hmph."

Wu Qilong snorted coldly, and after a while: "What are you doing now, that minister?" ”

"Walk around, play chess with friends, or listen to a girl sing." Su Tan'er raised her head and smiled, "Xianggong's affairs outside, I don't want to ask too much...... Just take care of your home. ”

Ning Yi was indeed watching the girl's family act.

On the second floor of Zhuji, Ning Yi is sitting next to a seat, drinking tea and eating xiǎo dim sum, and now there are people playing and singing in front of this restaurant for a long time, of course, Ning Yi is not referring to this.

Yuan Jin'er was sitting next to him at this time, and not far from diagonally, the talented man named Liu Qingdi was also sitting there, casting his gaze over.

A few days ago, Liu Qingdi had already found Zhuji's side, I don't know how he found Yuan Jin'er through what channel, but in any case, he has come often recently, and today Yuan Jin'er is here, and Ning Yi is also there, so she sat down with Shi Shiran, and her attitude with Ning Yi is quite intimate.

It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that Yuan Jin'er used to have a leg with Cao Guan and Liu Qingdi, and it is difficult to say how deep the relationship between talented and beautiful women is, maybe it can't reach the kind of deformed psychology of Gu Yanzhen before, but Liu Qingdi's mustard for Ning Yi is also from his origin, all kinds of complicated reasons, such as everyone is a talent for each other, such as Yuan Jin'er's performance, he is always stared at like this, and Ning Yi is also a little helpless. This beam has already been formed in Yancui Building, and it seems that it can't be solved for a while.

"Did you find it interesting?"

Ning Yi smiled and leaned towards Yuan Jin'er.

"Yes...... Meaning. ”

Yuan Jin'er also leaned over, looking like a xiǎo bird, in fact, Ning Yi couldn't take advantage of it at all, the Oiran was the Oiran, and kept a distance under his hand and pushed Ning Yi to this side.

"Where's Yunzhu?"

Sister Yunzhu said that she wouldn't come out to join in the fun, and sorted out the account books inside. I have no choice but to come out and accompany you, a big hero. ”

It was the beginning of winter, the clothes of the two were a little thick, and Yuan Jin'er was also dressed beautifully, and the two looked at each other, squeezing around in a space separated by a while, and Liu Qingdi's eyes were burning when he saw it there.

"Since our situation is so ambiguous now, you said that if I take you lightly, is it very reasonable?"

"Okay, this girl is out of the way, this appearance will be sacrificed, so that Sister Yunzhu can see what kind of person you are."

"Am I afraid?"

"Come on."

"If you don't take advantage of it...... You're embarrassing me like this......"

Yuan Jin'er pursed her lips and smiled, extremely innocent, the two looked at each other in the air, producing sparks, and the next moment, Ning Yi was about to do some actions with a high risk factor, Yuan Jin'er's body was twisted, and with a "snap", a crisp slap sounded in the hall on the second floor, Liu Qingdi, who was originally over there and didn't want to look at the behavior of the dog man NV, looked over, and the others also cast their eyes on this side.

In the field of vision, the pure and beautiful young NV stood up and hurriedly took two steps back to the side, everything on the table was clanging, she covered her side face with one hand, and looked at Ning Yi who was sitting there with both eyes, tears had come out, it was really pear blossoms with rain, which was pitiful.

"Hooligans!"

Bad to be preempted......

Fang Cai's slap didn't hit at all, Yuan Jin'er looked like she stood up abruptly, and slapped her, in fact, only the sleeves brushed Ning Yi's cheeks, but Yuan Jin'er was born in dance, and the sleeves of the dress were big at this time, and she slapped her hands below, which suddenly became a very embarrassing slap in the eyes of others.

“…… Beasts, monkeys, and apprentices......"

Yuan Jin'er wiped her tears and winked at Ning Yi with one eye, Ning Yi pouted: "You are ruthless." Over there, Liu Qingdi had already stood up suddenly, and Yuan Jin'er said: "People haven't promised you in their hearts, ...... you How can you do this......"

And ran away.

There was probably more than Liu Qingdi in the restaurant, but after hearing Yuan Jin'er's most resentful tone, he felt that he didn't know the relationship between the two for a while, Ning Yi sighed, raised the teacup and turned his face to the side. , There were a few guys who somewhat understood the relationship between Ning Yi and Yuan Jin'er and Nie Yunzhu who were stunned for a long time, and they didn't know what kind of reputation these owners were doing.

I can't drink this tea......

Yuan Jin'er rushed into the disparagement, smug herself in the corridor, and then brewed her feelings for a while, wiped her tears and ran inside, pushed away the room inside, covered her face and cried very sincerely: "Sister Yunzhu, Ning Yi He is getting more and more excessive, I joked with him, but he despised me, many people have seen it, I don't believe you go and ask Xiǎo Ding ...... them"

Yun Zhu was stunned for a long time: "Under the public...... How he despised you. ”

"He kissed me on the cheek." Yuan Jin'er sat down beside Yun Zhu, sniffed, and looked stubborn, "It was originally a joke, but he must have done it on purpose!" ”

Yun Zhu held her face and looked at it for a while, and then kissed it: "Okay, help him thin you." ”

"Really!" Yuan Jin'er protested, "Sister Yunzhu, you always believe that he doesn't believe me!" ”

"In public, it's strange that he would be like this, and you still want me to believe you...... Come and help me make the books. ”

"It's hard to calculate...... No, how could it not, men are like that, he thought he was doing it hidden. You don't believe it in public, he just calculated this, it's too dangerous, if he ...... me in public next time" Yuan Jin'er struggled for a long time, "Give me that, then Sister Yunzhu, you don't believe me......"

Although they were all Qing people before, they were still very powerful in the Qinglou after all, and the NV next to them would never be able to say this. Yun Zhu burst out laughing: "If he, if he really gives you to you in public...... Give that, well, whatever it is, I don't believe it......"

Yuan Jin'er stiffened her face, and then couldn't help laughing: "Anyway, you're biased." "Turn your head and help make the ledger.

"People have something to do tonight, and you are always annoying him."

"I bother him when I like him, I'm not because I hate him......"

Bang, put down the teacup, the afternoon sunlight has begun to warm yellow, sprinkled in this teahouse, Su Chonghua was also awakened by this voice, and looked at the middle-aged man in front of him.

"Brother Chonghua seems to have something on his mind in the past few days, could it be that he is worried about what happened at home tonight?"

The middle-aged man in front of him was tall and thin, with a wisp of goatee, and was one of Su Chonghua's poetry friends on weekdays, named Chen Lu, a monk of Kongshan Mountain, and also had some fame in Jiangning.

"Heh, evening...... Probably nothing will happen......"

"Brother Chonghua, don't hide it from me, I heard that your Su family clan conference is approaching these days, there will be a big change, you participated in the poetry meeting two days ago, it seems that you are also a little absent-minded, no interest, not worried about this matter, so what? If there is really nothing to do tonight, you and I will simply ignore the mundane things, and it would be better to go to the gathering in Changyun Pavilion with me. ”

"The clan conference, even if the result has little to do with me, I still have to attend it after all." Su Chonghua smiled, and then thought for a while: "Heh, but when it comes to the poetry meeting a few days ago...... In fact, I am just lamenting the matter of poetry, and it really takes some talent. A few days ago, I saw the word work, and my heart was very complicated, and I often thought about it these days, heh, but I lost my interest in writing poetry. ”

"Oh?" Chen Lu was interested, "Sounds like this is a good word?" ”

"Fabulous." Su Chonghua shook his head, "It's just that the person who wrote the lyrics matched this word, which really made people sigh in their hearts." ”

"Brother Chonghua, I'm getting more and more curious, don't sell it again, say it quickly."

"Heh, this is the cousin of the family, it was done by Ning Yi and Ning Liheng, this person's deeds, Brother Kongshan has also heard about it in the past. There are also some reasons for the current situation of my Su family...... A few days ago, he wrote a lyric poem, but it was just for the nineteen-year-old xiǎo child in his family to watch in private, and I saw it by accident. This is the first time to set the storm...... Its artistic conception is only seen in his life, and it is not inferior to his previous two poems, so every time he sees this person, or sees other people's poems, he can't help but think that if he wants to write poems and lyrics, he is a little excited. But this person really can't do it......"

Su Chonghua shook his head, stretched out his finger and dipped it in the tea, in the near sunshine of the afternoon, while sighing, he wrote out the word, as if in this way, and then the word was tasted, and the middle-aged man opposite listened to and looked at the word, and his eyes gradually became serious......

In front of the Xiǎo teahouse on the other side of the city, the carriages all came, Su Tan'er and Wu Qilong stood under the eaves, ready to leave, Wu Qilong looked at the daylight. , "The people you want, respectively......"

Su Tan'er's eyes were originally cold, but when she heard Wu Qilong say these words, her eyes trembled at some point, and she frowned slightly, but she didn't speak. It wasn't until he finished saying this that Su Tan'er thought for a moment before he arrived: "It's them?" ”

"Believe it or not."

"No, I believe you."

"Huh?"

"Some people already know the way, if you have something to hide, maybe there will be a problem." She smiled and said, "Do you know what was the first thing he said when he had a showdown with you that day and went home?" ”

"What?"

"Qi Guangzu is the inner jiān."

"......," Uqilong looked at with a frown.

"Because the first thing you said to Xianggong was: Sure enough, it's you."

"So what?"

He asked Shopkeeper Zhou for news, but Shopkeeper Zhou was not drunk. Once you start to have problems there, you will try to inquire, Xiang Gong designed several methods for Zhou to inadvertently reveal the news, to Qi Guangzu, Zhou said that what he admired most was his grandfather and Xiang Gong...... Xianggong said, you shouldn't say that you really said it like that, and as soon as he heard it, he knew whether he was guessing or being sure...... I just didn't expect them to ......."

There was silence, like a cold dòng cave sucking Wu Qilong down. Su Tan'er glanced at him.

"Let's go, let's cooperate well, I don't want to exterminate your Wu family, that would be bad for my Su family's reputation."

Turning around, Su Tan'er's gaze cooled. Wu Qilong stood there, watching Su Tan'er's carriage go away, and the sunlight couldn't warm up on his body, on the other side, Ning Yi's casual figure seemed to be standing there, looking over, and shining that yīn shadow above the entire Wu family......

In the Su Mansion, people were already talking, laughing, and coming out of the courtyards one by one, noisy sounds, some relaxed, worried, some laughing, some snickering, all kinds of people gradually gathered together like the end of the year, greeting each other, greetings.

The dinner party has been almost prepared, and after the dinner, it is the clan meeting that is enough to decide the direction of the Su family for several years to come. In the city, Xue Yan, Xue Jin and others had also left the mén and rushed to tonight's meeting place one by one.

"Hurry up, hurry up, tonight's party, but you spent a lot of money to invite the Oiran over, you are blessed, when the time comes, have a good show......"

"Oiran? Could it be Miss Qilan? ”

The identity of the businessman, the Xue family is still better than the Puyang family, this year's Oiran Sai Puyang family will hold Qilan as the Oiran, and it is not a peak season recently, most of the people who can be invited are her, but Xue Yan shook his head.

"Originally, I wanted to invite everyone from Qilan over, but Puyang Yi also had a banquet today, and he was a group of literati, so Cao Guan and Liu Qingdi would go, this is the face of the Puyang family, and Qilan has to be in charge. As a result, I invited Luo Miaomiao......"

At the same time, Su Chonghua, who had been hovering outside for an afternoon, also took a carriage and rushed all the way home. Ning Yi said goodbye to Yunzhu and walked on the street home as well. The people of the Su family who were still outside at this time had also gathered at home.

The car passed through the alley, and Su Tan'er sat in the carriage, thinking about a lot of things with her eyes closed, and then she took out a piece of paper and wrote three names on it. When the curtain was lifted, Geng Huyuan sat on the wheel outside and turned around.

Su Tan'er gave him the note, and her eyes were cold: "Do it as planned, xiǎo be careful, don't be yīn by the Wu family in the end." ”

Geng Huyuan nodded, put the note in his arms, jumped out of the carriage, and ran in the other direction.

The daylight shone in through the open curtains, but it was not warm.

Soon after, in a joint room, the Geng guard showed the three names to another person, and then burned the note in the fire.

At the entrance of a certain shop of the Su family, Xi Junyu sat there basking in the sun, closing his eyes and pondering all the arrangements along the way, and after a while, he sighed, but also smiled, got up and walked in the direction of the Su Mansion.

"It's almost time to eat, let's all get ready to go." In Su Yu's courtyard, in the guest room, the old man finally opened his eyes, smiled and opened his mouth, and then, everyone also began to stand up, and one by one in the trivial sentences.

Su Boyong, whose face was still pale, sat in a wooden wheelchair, and was pushed out of the mén by his wife and concubine, and in the courtyard outside, including Su Yunsong and Sudan Red, many stewards who followed the big house were waiting for him, so he smiled and waved his hand, of course, his face was still weak: "Let's go, let's go, I'm a little busy tonight......"

Su Zhongkan, Su Yunfang, Xi Anzhi, Yu Daxian, Su Wenxing, Su Wengui, Su Wenji...... Dozens and hundreds of people, all kinds of interest nets, began to tighten.

Su Tan'er walked down from the carriage, and then saw a husband who was greeting and greeting relatives and friends of the Su family not far ahead, so she walked over with a smile.

"Xianggong, let's go in."
