Volume 2 Flowers follow the willows, the clouds are light and the wind is light! Chapter 10 Timely Rain Downing
As soon as Wang Zhi left on the front foot, the young man he met in the tooth shop on the back foot was sent to Tang Ning's house by the people of the tooth shop.
The young man was dirty, and he was holding a spirit card in his hand.
As soon as Liu Yi'er opened the door, the young man fell to his knees with a thud, saying that he didn't get up at all, which startled Liu Yi'er.
After Tang Ning hurried over, the young man slammed his head three times, and the sound was so loud that even the old man sitting on the steps of his house looked sideways.
"What are you doing here?"
"Thank you for your success, from now on, Wu Sheng's life is noble!"
The young man's voice was very loud, but Tang Ning couldn't help but laugh and stepped forward to help him up and said, "What a big deal, and I didn't mean it." Get up, get up, look at the dirt on your body, go wash it well, change your clothes, and let's talk about these things. ”
Wu Sheng looked at Tang Ning gratefully and said, "Maybe this is a trivial matter for a noble person, but for me, this is a big thing."
For as long as I can remember, I have been dependent on my grandmother. It has been more than ten years now, and it is hateful that Nanshan has been burned, killed, and plundered, destroying the village where my grandmother and I lived. had no choice but to flee into Runzhou City, but was sent to Yaxing by the government, and he was in a panic.
If it weren't for the help of nobles, Wu Sheng wouldn't even have the opportunity to bury his grandmother with his own hands. ”
"Okay, I see, you get up and talk first." Tang Ning found that he couldn't pull this stinky boy, so he exerted some strength: "People can't kneel easily, if you kneel for a long time, you won't be able to stand up."
Now that you've come to my house, the first thing you have to remember is one thing. There are no slaves in my family, only servants, and if you have worked in my family for five years, I will go to the government to give you a citizenship, and from now on, you will be a good citizen.
So you don't need to kneel down to anyone, no one is your master but yourself, and no one is qualified to be your master. ”
Wu Sheng burst into tears, and thanked him again and again after getting up. Liu Yi'er looked at Tang Ning with a smile, this was not the slightest difference from the Tang Ning she imagined, and she was very satisfied.
Tang Ning and Liu Yi'er worked hard for a while, boiling a large bucket of hot water, and then when Wu Sheng cautiously got into the bucket, Tang Ning, who was carrying a brush in his hand and had a demonic smile on his face, pushed the door in.
"There are not many rules that everyone in our family has to follow, but the first one is to be clean!"
Liu Yi'er sat in the main hall with her cheeks propped up, listening to Wu Sheng's pig-like howl and Tang Ning's smug laughter, and couldn't help but feel much lighter.
In this world, except for those businessmen who are full of fat stomachs, everyone is living a life of having a meal and not a meal. With Liu Yier's experience, this is even more so.
The young lady of the rich and noble family has become a cook, just like the phoenix on the sycamore branch that has fallen into the chicken coop, and will only be treated as a plaything, not to mention the trepidation.
And since stepping into this house, Liu Yier feels that this is the fastest time since she left her hometown. She very much wished that it would be longer, and nothing else.
Even if you've been a cook. Liu Yi'er thought with a red face.
Wu Sheng was now like a roasted rabbit, his whole body was red and fluttering. Tang Ning found a piece of clothing for Wu Sheng, but Wu Sheng said that he would not wear anything at all, saying that he would not dare to wear the clothes of nobles, and he could not break the rules.
Tang Ning didn't force this, the ancients were very smart, but they were also stupid in some aspects.
Superiority and inferiority have existed since ancient times, and this concept has been ingrained in their hearts, and for a while, Tangning could not change it.
Grandchild. Mr. Zhongshan once said: "The general trend of the world is mighty, those who go along with it prosper, and those who go against it die." ”
Downing didn't want to die, he still wanted to go home, although the chances of this wish being fulfilled were slim.
The cleaned Wu Sheng is still a very attractive young man, although his facial features are not so good-looking, they are very profound. A national face, the whole is the appearance of a standard soldier.
found a lining of his own for Wu Sheng to put on his body, Tang Ning went out, deliberately made six more dishes, turned around with the food box and went to Mengxi Garden.
knocked on the door of Mengxi Garden, and it was a servant who opened the door. After telling the servant that he wanted to visit Shen Kuo, the servant left a sentence of 'wait for me to pass through my master', and ran to the backyard with a smoke.
Tang Ning, who had nothing to do, looked around and couldn't help but admire Shen Kuo's aesthetics very much.
Mengxi Garden covers a large area, a large garden, similar to a park in later generations.
The servant's door was not closed, and Downing could see a vegetable patch inside.
Shen Kuo spent the rest of his life studying science in addition to climbing power. Farming was a very important event in ancient times, and every emperor was very attentive to farming. They will even set aside a day of the year to lead their ministers and concubines to work in the fields.
This vegetable field is very well taken care of by Shen Kuo, although I can't see what is planted in the ground, but the tender green shoots that come out of the soil are pleasing to the eye.
The servant ran back again, smiled and invited Tang Ning in, and said that Tang Ning came at the right time, just in time for the meal.
This is teasing, can't you see the lacquer box you are carrying?
There are not many people in Shen Kuo's family, the eldest son Shen Boyi, the second son Shen Qingzhi, the second daughter-in-law Zhu, plus himself and the Zhang family, and more than 20 servants and maids, there is no one else.
During the meal, five people sat at a table, and the atmosphere was very dull.
Shen Kuo and Shen Boyi only dared to bow their heads to pick up rice, Shen Qing hung his head straight, and the bowls were full of dishes that Zhang gave him, and although Zhu didn't bow his head, he was also picking rice.
From the mean-looking Zhang family, you can see who has the final say in this family.
When Tang Ning came in, Shen Kuo was like being amnestied, hurriedly put down the rice bowl, and the things in his mouth didn't have time to swallow, he grabbed Tang Ning's hand with the rice grains and said excitedly: "Xiaoyou, you are here, come, you and I will go to the study to talk!" ”
Shen Boyi was shocked when he heard this, and looked at his father with a help-seeking gaze. Daddy is here, and father and son can suffer together, but when Daddy is not there, only himself will suffer.
Shen Kuo was ruthless, didn't look at his eldest son's eyes, and pulled Tang Ning to leave.
'Bang'
It was the sound of porcelain hitting a wooden table.
Tang Ning held back a smile, looked at Shen Kuo and trembled all over, and then stopped.
"Master, don't you want to introduce this son to the concubine?"
Zhang got up slowly, and said with a smile.
It stands to reason that when people like Tang Ning come to visit, the female relatives should avoid it.
But Shen Kuo didn't care too much, as soon as he came, his wife's capricious personality would not be remembered. Second, he is completely the Downing when it rains.
If Downing doesn't come, how can he run? God knows why Madame would get sick while eating......
"Uh...... Madame, the two of us have something important to discuss......"
"Ouch, master, you told the concubine yesterday that the most important thing is the family matter, why is there more important thing than the family sitting together to eat?"
Tang Ning looked at Shen Kuo's constipation-like expression on his old face and almost died of laughter, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, so he had to bite his tongue to prevent himself from laughing.
Shen Kuo is a strict wife, which is recorded in history. Zhang is a sadist, and this is well documented. But Tang Ning didn't expect that Shen Kuo was actually afraid that the Zhang family was afraid to such an extent, and even outsiders came and didn't dare to refute it tremblingly.
"Madame......"
"Hello Madam, junior Tang Ning, is the owner of the newly moved neighbor's house.
The younger generation has long heard of Mr. Mengxi's name, but there have been a lot of things recently, and they have time to visit in the future. As soon as I was free today, I hurried here.
If you don't deliver a prayer post, it's already a rude for the younger generation.
The younger generation used to learn some cooking skills from the tutor, so I prepared some side dishes to apologize, and asked my wife not to mind. ”
Shen Kuo didn't know his name, and if he was asked to explain at this time, there would definitely be a leak. Tang Ning couldn't bear to see Shen Kuo being beaten again, so he arched his hand and reported his name.
Although Zhang is mean, she still can't pick a bone in Tangning's justified words. A few days ago, there was a lot of movement in and out of Tang Ning's house, and it stands to reason that his neighbor should have come to visit a long time ago, but he came today and didn't bring some belongings, and the Zhang family was still a little dissatisfied.
So she was ready to find fault with the 'side dishes' brought by Tang Ning.
But when the servants removed the dishes from the table, and Tang Ning put the six warm 'side dishes' in the lacquer box, even Zhang, who had prepared vicious words, couldn't open his mouth, let alone Shen Qingzhi, who was a foodie incarnate......
