It was mid-February and it started to rain.

There is still a short period of time before Qingming Festival. The cold rain in spring washes the world clear and clear, and the sprouting plants and buds embellish the world bit by bit.

Now in this year, Qingming Festival is a big day. After more than ten days, the Su family is already preparing for ancestor worship. Just like last year, Ning Yi is relatively idle at this time. If a married man does not change his surname, he will not be able to enter the ancestral hall. On that day, he will not be a very important participant. Some Su family women still have to prepare for ancestor worship, so Ning Yi naturally doesn't even need to pay attention to these. Of course, he is relatively idle on weekdays, so he can't show a more special place at this time.

It doesn't matter if you don't enter the ancestral hall, it means you don't pay attention. In this way, according to the general concept, men will appear to be shameless. After all, everyone says "a real man" is what it means. But for Ning Yi, I passed this year, but this year it made the Su family a little embarrassed. According to Xiaochan, several old men in the family were discussing with Su Boyong to discuss whether to find a way so that Ning Yi can participate in this ancestor worship, so that he will not feel neglected, and then discussing what results will not come to mind, so everyone was very upset.

After all, Ning Yi's importance in the Su family has been highlighted. Although he is a son-in-law, his actual performance cannot be treated with disrespect for others. The Su family needs to marry into a marriage, but he cannot be changed, but he will not be allowed to enter the ancestral hall. In the future, everyone cares about this, but they are afraid that Ning Yi will have any grudges in his heart. After discussing it, everyone looked for Su Tan'er over and asked. Su Tan'er was also a headache. She ran back and said a few words indirectly, and Ning Yi thought about it.

"Su Yi and Su Liheng are not very nice..."

"I think so, too."

"Then don't change it... Don't think about the things that are there or not. As for those old people, just let them go. It doesn't matter if you worry about it..."

Ning Yi will be clear about the human nature and rules after thinking about it for a moment. He understands that the other party’s troubles are self-proclaimed, but even if he doesn’t care much about many things, he will not be willing to change his surname. The other party probably understands these things, which is also the source of their distress.

Of course, suspicion and worry about these things were inevitable from the night when Old Lady Su Yusu announced the facts of the Imperial Merchant. These people would definitely worry whether he would have ambitions, whether his abilities would be too great, or that he would have any dissatisfaction. It doesn't matter whether they would bind, suppress or restrict them. After all, from the very beginning, Ning Yi had no idea about the wealth and power of the Su family.

Although she has a good relationship with her wife now, Su Tan'er will feel a little reluctant to say anything about things like worshiping ancestors, but it doesn't matter. One day, she will probably understand what kind of person she is. Even if she feels strange, she will become clear over time.

This may be a long process, but if you slowly get started, that's it.

Every day, among the group of disciples, there was something about Zhou Pei's recent emotional problems. Ning Yi felt a little strange. He had known before that this little girl was worried about the sound of choosing a county horse at home. The pretty strong girl even cried secretly. Recently, she found that she was much weirder again because she saw her sneakily picking some leaves to wash them, and then hiding aside to chew. The leaves were so bitter that Ning Yi frowned when he thought about it. He didn't know why this noble little princess suddenly couldn't think about it.

As a teacher, he is quite concerned about the female disciples in the class. This is just because things are rare and rare. After his enlightenment, these female disciples have no chance to learn from them. After all, what they face in the future is just two things: getting married and taking care of their husbands and children.

But this matter is just about attention, and it is futile to enlighten. After all, even if they have any psychological problems, it is also a social problem. If they cannot change the society, the more they think, the worse it will be for them. The saying that women have no talent is virtue is actually extremely correct in the current society. Therefore, for this little princess who suddenly became weird, Ning Yi still only taught her some arithmetic things, and the rest were not asked about it.

Outside the Su family, the assassination incident about Zhuji has escaped, and now it has come to an end. This matter comes suddenly and goes quickly, but the unusual meanings hidden in it are enough to attract the attention of those who are interested. The Liao people, Jin Kingdom, Wu Dynasty... some complex struggles only reveal some clues here.

After all, this matter is a bit big for Ning Yi. In the meantime, Qin Siyuan's life is still suppressed in the complex silence, and there is no change. Ning Yi occasionally goes there, just talks about the sayings in the book, playing Go, or talking about trivial matters at home. Ning Yi talks about the troubles of the Su family recently, smiles at Convenience, saying that he is too low-key and also causes trouble for people. However, he will never talk about major national affairs.

During the assassination of Zhuji, Yun Zhushi was injured. Jin'er also subdued one of them, which could be regarded as saving Qin Siyuan's life-saving grace. A long time ago, Ning Yi had the idea of ​​letting Qin Siyuan take Yun Zhu as his adopted daughter, but later it was left unresolved due to Yun Zhu's performance in Yancuilou. However, Yun Zhu still had a relationship with the Qin family and occasionally came to visit Grandpa Qin. After this incident, Qin Siyuan mentioned the matter of accepting his daughter one day.

The last time Ning Yi mentioned this matter, the meaning was originally very extraordinary. He asked a former official to take a girl from a brothel as his adopted daughter. After it was spread, Mr. Yu Qin's reputation was damaged after all, but Ning Yi's consideration was because he understood the other party's friendship and was determined to give Yun Zhu a good backer. As for Mr. Qin, he had some understanding of each other, and Ning Yi was also determined to give something for this matter. As long as the old man agreed, he naturally had this ability and took action a few times to prevent the other party from suffering losses. Later, it was because Yun Zhu came forward again for himself and asked the other party to agree, which made him a little bit arrogant. Ning Yi did it.

But this time, the meaning of being proposed by Mr. Qin is even more special. At that time, Mr. Qin was only considered an official who was dismissed. Now there are various calls outside and he was assassinated by the Liao people again. If he rises up, he will be a high-ranking official below one person and above ten thousand people in a blink of an eye. Ning Yi was stunned.

It was impossible for Yunzhu to agree, and there was no need to speak out if he refused. At this time, because there were often big people in Qin's hometown, Yunzhu was not easy to come. Then Ning Yi brought Yunzhu and Jin'er to visit him once, and the old man thanked them for their actions.

That afternoon, the tea was brought out in the yard, and the few people said something. Qin Siyuan was also clear about the relationship between Ning Yi and Yun Zhu: "I am really a little hard to say what this is between you two, I have never seen it before..." The two could already be connected together, but it seems that due to Jin'er's obstruction, there was no breakthrough in the last step, Ning Yi could not take the other person home, but at this time, he brought Yun Zhu over to visit, or Ning Yi decided for her some major life events, and it was natural, even as if her husband took his wife back to his father-in-law's house to visit. When it comes to this kind of thing, Qin Siyuan occasionally talked to Kang Xian, and he was very helpless.

Jin'er knew Old Qin's family at this time, and when he heard what he said, he excitedly told Ning Yi about it. Ning Yi and Yun Zhu could only listen. Sometimes they were drinking tea and smiled bitterly. In Jin'er's eyes, this attitude naturally turned into a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. She was also very unhappy about Sister Yun Zhu's obsession and letting him go: "Grandpa Qin, you have to scold them."

Qin Siyuan smiled: "You also said that they are obsessed with it, and scolding cannot wake up. In fact, if they can really be obsessed with it in life, it might be a good thing. Give them some time."

"Hmph." Jin'er snorted coldly, "No."

That being said, Jin'er had no choice but to do this. In fact, she may not have the elements of enjoying it in the whole matter. After she recovered from the illness, she still fought with Ning Yi or talked about the Jiner shop every day, and lived a leisurely life habitually. In the past few days, the matter of Li Shishi from the capital coming to visit friends became more and more lively in Jiangning. I don't know who was hyping it up, turning the whole thing into a challenge to Jiangning from Tokyo. Many Jiangning talents have taken action, encouraging Qilan, Luo Miaomiao and others to prepare to do a performance in those days, invite Miss Li to come and compete. Before the people there, the hype is already very lively.

"That Li Shishi is very famous. I heard that many powerful talents in Tokyo have written poems for her. One named Zhou Bangyan is also very famous. I have read his lyrics and writes them very well." That afternoon, when I came to Xiaolou, Yuan Jiner was also paying attention to Li Shishi's affairs. "Recently, many talents in Jiangning have thanked for their new works. Ning Da Talent, do you want to write a new lyrics to suppress the arrogance in Tokyo?"

"Writing poetry? OK, I've been inspired recently." Ning Yi picked up the pen and wrote. Jin'er opened her mouth and hurriedly leaned over from the table. Yun Zhu, who was walking by, leaned over curiously.

"Germanium, plutonium, uranium, chlorine, thorium, arsenic, cesium, all the charm is towards the small garden. Potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, lithium, beryllium, scent, floating in the moon and dusk... What kind of poem is this..."

Ning Yi was recalling the periodic table of elements recently, but unfortunately he always didn't remember it properly. At this time, he took the rice paper and looked at it happily: "What a poem, what a good poem... but there are four more sentences, followed by lead, aluminum, tungsten, palladium, fluorocarbon itch... Well, it sounds a bit like it's not too itchy..."

"If you don't write, don't write. It's always like this..." This song "Little Plum in the Mountain Garden" did not seem to have been passed down to Wu Dynasty. Jin'er leaned over and looked at the few sentences that took all the charm and floated towards the small garden and the faint fragrance at dusk. "It was a waste of good sentences. It's amazing for a great talent..."

She thought for a while and smiled, "Hmph, by the way, a young man came to visit Sister Yunzhu this morning. She is beautiful and steady, well-educated and polite, and she is an official. She must be better than you in writing poetry. Sister Yunzhu talks with him very happily."

"Uh?" Ning Yi smiled, "If you don't believe it, how could he write such a good poem..."

"It's Mr. Qin's eldest son." Yun Zhu smiled behind him, "Because Mr. Qin was assassinated, it was Qingming again, so he rushed back from Jiangzhou. Today he came here to thank him. He said that he had visited Liheng's house yesterday, but he went there in a hurry and had never seen him. Didn't Liheng know?"

"Qin Shaohe... Someone did come over yesterday, but he didn't leave his name. He said he would come over..."

Ning Yi thought about it and realized that he had heard of Qin Siyuan's two sons many times. Qin Shao and Qin Shaoqian were both literary and military. Due to Qin Siyuan's relationship, they were highly valued in politics and the army. Last year, due to the effective disaster relief, Qin Shaohe was promoted to the prefect of Jiangzhou. Perhaps due to the busy things, neither of the two brothers came back to Jiangning at the end of the year. This time, he heard that his father was assassinated and rushed back.

He asked Yunzhu about Qin Shaohe's situation. As Qin Siyuan's eldest son, this man is actually nearly forty years old. Jin'er's handsome, steady, well-educated and polite words is nothing wrong. According to what Qin Siyuan heard from Qin Siyuan before, Qin Shaohe is humble and steady, and has the style of being a father. He is a truly inheritor of Qin Siyuan's legacy in his studies. But he is not ostentatious. Under the influence of Qin Siyuan, he values ​​practice and is not good at exaggerating. Although his poetry skills are also very good, he writes little, so his reputation is not well-known. He also moves forward step by step in the officialdom. In the past few years, he was dragged down by his father and has only been promoted recently.

The three of them talked about the two brothers of the Qin family for a while, and Ning Yi also tossed the "Little Plum in the Mountain Garden" for a while, and then wrote it out and let Yuan Jiner take it to read it. Yuan Jiner read it and sneered: "It's just that." But it seems that she still likes it.

Ning Yi told him not to show it out, just look at it yourself, and don’t get it on him if you want to show it. When he went back that day, he went in and visited him once when he passed by Qin Mansion. Sure enough, he knew that the eldest son of the Qin family had returned, but he also went out to visit others this afternoon. When he returned home, someone happened to come over, but it was not Qin Shaohe, but Puyang Yi of the Puyang family. Before Ning Yi came home, Su Tan'er and Su Boyong were receiving it.

"...In recent days, Brother Ning must have known the rumors that the Shishi girl in Tokyo is about to come. Now that the love in Jiangning is in full swing, everyone is looking forward to letting Qilan and Shishi girl discuss... Haha, although the other party's intentions are still unknown, there is still a possibility of meeting. I think that it is related to Jiangning's reputation after all, so I want Brother Ning to make an exception and write a new lyric for Qilan for the reputation of Jiangning Shilin. In this way, I am very prepared for it..."
