Although he usually has a calm attitude in dealing with people, Lao Qin is a person who does big things, and people who do big things should have great courage. Although he is also very emotional and does not trust friends like brothers, wives, or clothes, but he really wants to Speaking of his attitude towards women, the old man still has the common characteristics of men of this era. He is not so superficial that he thinks women don't have their own temper. But seriously speaking, just two women are not something that requires too much effort. .
He was a little dissatisfied with this aspect of Ning Yi's character. Of course, in the end, he had to add it to the weird part of the other person's character.
On the one hand, he asked Yun Niang to invite Yunzhu to this private banquet without telling Ning Yi. On the other hand, he invited Ning Yi but did not tell Yunzhu. After all, the reason for his invitation was very sufficient. That day at Zhuji, Ning Yi saved his life, and Yunzhu and Jin'er also helped. It didn't matter that they were so close. In fact, it was used to bring the two parties together.
Yunzhu naturally understood the moment she saw Ning Yi that the person she liked was going to be in trouble. She also smiled a little playfully, but she never showed any special expression after that. Her expression was elegant and she didn't want to add trouble to others. Trouble. Mr. Qin just laughed about it at first, but later did not interfere.
The next banquet was divided into men and women. It is said that Yuan Jin'er was more lively chatting with Su Tan'er about business. She wanted to become a strong woman, so she did not hesitate to learn from real strong women. Tan'er asked her about opening a store. Despite the situation, he really gave her some ideas, and the two talked happily.
On Ning Yi's side, Qin Shaoqian talked about some things about the military camp, and then asked about the outing that would be held in two days. When he mentioned Master Li and Fanlou, he laughed loudly: "I know Fanlou well, that Master Li. , I’ve seen her too, let’s go meet her together then.”
Qin Shaohe became confused: "You have been to Fanlou a lot, but Master Li has only come out in the past few years, how can you know him?"
"Ahem, I went to Bianjing the year before last and met with a group of old acquaintances. They said that Miss Shishi was the most famous, so they went to Fanlou. Before they met, they saw Gao Qiu's fake son using his power to bully others. He touched a woman selling melons and fruits. I...well, I, what I hate the most is this kind of thing. There was a quarrel on the spot, and then everyone started fighting on the fan building. If it weren't for a man named Lu Qian's lackey is very good at martial arts, I have to punch him twice."
At this time, besides the three fathers and sons of the Qin family, there were Ning Yi and Xu Xiaohu beside him. Qin Siyuan heard the younger son talking about this kind of thing, put down his chopsticks, handed the bowl to the servant next to him, frowned and said: "Nonsense ." But there was not much blame in the words. At this time, Gao Qiu had already held the position of Taiwei in Tokyo, but he was just flattering the superiors. Although he was powerful in wielding power, he was not as good as the high-level civil servants and generals. Although Qin Siyuan said "nonsense", he didn't seem to think too much of Gao Qiu.
Qin Shaoqian naturally understood his father's temperament and spread his hands: "There is no nonsense, why don't you look at it like this? When we made trouble in Bianjing before, we only fought with those gangsters and gangsters who bullied the market. We saw injustice on the road. Just do it. Dad, you haven’t been to Bianjing for a long time. I don’t know how messed up it is by the second-generation ancestors. A few months after I left the year before last, I heard that there was a trainer named Lin in the imperial army of General Gao Yanei. I was convicted, and later..."
He paused: "Hey, later, Coach Lin's wife died in Gao Yanei's room, and Coach Lin was assigned to another. Last year, I heard that it was against the will and went to Liangshan. Damn it... I asked someone on Bianjing Street.
Ask, eight out of ten know what happened, but it’s a pity that I haven’t heard of many of his evil deeds that time, otherwise even if Lu Qian and Uncle Geng were to stop me, I would have drawn my sword and chopped him into pieces..."
Qin Siyuan raised his head and glanced at him: "Xidao is here too?" Geng Xidao said, it was Geng Nanzhong.
Qin Shaoqian nodded: "Well, Uncle Geng Shi asked me to ask dad how are you. He came out to be the peacemaker, so we had to give him face. Mother Li from Fanlou and the teacher girl also came out to break up the fight. Later, everyone found a flower hall to sit down.
On one side of us and on the other side of the gang of guys surnamed Gao, the Shishi girl was playing and singing in the middle, but it was no fun at all... they broke up unhappy."
After he finished speaking, he shrugged, buried his bearded face in the bowl and started to eat rice. The other people laughed, and Qin Siyuan nodded: "Xidao always has a good way of making peace."
Afterwards, everyone talked about some random things. When they talked about Xu Xiaohu, they realized that this young man was also a real martial arts master, the kind who had practiced truly superior internal martial arts. Qin Shaoqian had no experience in this area and had fought many times.
It was just because of his own bravery. Qin Siyuan smiled and talked about Ning Yi's past yearning for martial arts. Then of course Ning Yi could not help but say something like "I have admired Xu Xiaohu for a long time, and I am called the Bloody Hand Massacre".
According to Qin Shaoqian, Xu Xiaohu has a fierce martial arts style and is best at Bazi Quan and White Ape Arms. However, his personality is very simple and even a little shy. Ning Yi has been practicing kung fu for so long, and he is good at martial arts.
He had many questions, and when he asked them, Xu Xiaohu also answered them all. However, in the end, it was basically the same as what Lu Hongti said. After all, martial arts are played out. If you practice too many routines, you will not be able to realize your intention before it arrives.
After all, the degree of first action is of little significance. In other words, the most important thing is to form a conditioned reflex.
After the meal is finished, the guests and hosts are enjoying themselves.
Another day passed, and then came the day when the outing was held. This was still two days before the Qingming Festival. It was called Hanshi in ancient times and was established to commemorate the introduction of the Spring and Autumn Period. Before the Three Kingdoms, people did not open fire for a month before and after the Cold Food. They all ate
Later, because this month-long period often made it difficult for the elderly and the weak to survive, Emperor Wu of the Wei Dynasty, Cao Cao, abolished the custom of eating cold food. Later, the Cold Food Festival was moved for two days to commemorate the Qingming Festival.
Put them together.
The weather was good that day. There was a mist in the morning, but it dispersed after sunrise. In front of the small building by the Qinhuai River, Yunzhu and Jin'er dressed up in men's clothes, each shook a fan, and were getting ready to go out.
At this time, the spring breeze has warmed up, the stretched clouds in the sky are like white dragons flying, and the willows along the Qinhuai River are green. It is a good time for outings. The residents in Jiangning City are rich, so there are more such activities than in poor places. These days, go
On the road to the countryside, you can often see families in twos and threes, wearing clean and tidy clothes, happily going out. Children are holding the hands of adults, swaying happily.
Today there seem to be more people traveling like this than in the past. On the Qinhuai River, one or two boats can occasionally be seen heading out of the city. Catkins on the road are flying, and scholars are heading towards the city gate.
There also seemed to be a lot of people. Today, the outing organized by Chen Luoyuan was held near Bailuzhou outside Jiangning City.
Yunzhu has never gone out for an outing like this in the past few years. In the early years, he only had such an opportunity when he was in Jinfeng Tower. At that time, he went out for an outing, and it was not for himself. To redeem his life.
In the past two years, she enjoyed the feeling of freedom, but rarely went out. She seemed to have returned to the official lady who was afraid of seeing outsiders. Later, she started selling preserved eggs, just as a necessary business. Otherwise, she still felt like staying at home.
She is more comfortable. She is still traditional and conservative at heart. As a woman who wants to go out for fun like this, she always feels that she should go with her family. When she was a child, she followed her parents, and in the future she will probably only follow her husband. So Ning Yi called her out like this, and she was happy.
, I dressed up as a man, but I couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.
"I'm a little nervous." After adjusting her clothes a little, she walked on the road and turned to Jin'er and said to Jin'er. Jin'er was unfolding a folding fan to fan herself while walking. Hearing this, she shrugged: "What's there to be nervous about?
Come, Sister Yunzhu, hold my hand and go."
Yunzhu smiled and said: "I am also your son now, so what can I do to save you?"
The two people originally made an appointment with Ning Yi to meet near Bailuzhou. They chatted and laughed for a while, and when they arrived near the city gate, they got in a car and headed all the way to Stone City.
Ning Yi regarded today's outing as just watching a concert, so he was not in a hurry. Before leaving the city, he went to Yushan Academy to do some homework. When he arrived at the agreed place, there were already many outing people on the river bank near Bailuzhou.
People.
Bailuzhou at this time was actually not at the same location as Nanjing Bailuzhou Park in later generations. Bailuzhou at this time was also the original location in Li Bai's poem "Three mountains are half fallen outside the blue sky, and two waters divide Bailuzhou". It was located in Stone City.
A sandbar in the outer Yangtze River divides the Yangtze River into two. There are many reeds on the sandbar, so egrets often gather there. Later, the Yangtze River silt silted up, and the Egret Island was connected to the south bank of the Yangtze River, and it gradually disappeared in later generations.
The scenery near Bailuzhou is very good at this time, but outing is not a wild activity. There is no need to go to the reeds on the island. Generally, you just walk along the mountains and waterside on both sides of Bailuzhou. There are also outing activities in spring.
There are many types of outings. A family of three flying kites in the wild is considered an outing, or a few people wandering around casually is also an outing. The more formal ones are usually in the form of literary meetings, where a group of young scholars have been invited by many literary celebrities or senior scientific officials.
The big guys come up with a topic in the mountains to meet friends who are temporarily outstanding in literature. It can also be called an outing. For example, the famous Lanting meeting of Wang Xizhi, Xie An and others in history is called Xiuhe. It is generally classified as an outing party.
No big problem.
This time the outing party is not too strict, but most of the main participants are literati. There are also many other merchants and officials, but naturally they are all proficient in literature. As the organizer, the great scholar Chen Luoyuan has his own garden here.
The location was naturally placed over there to prevent many idle people from coming to participate. But to be honest, the number of literati who had not been invited to gather here was already quite considerable. Naturally, they would not say that they were here for Chen Luoyuan's party.
, but I might as well see if I can sneak in, or if I have more ideas, I am planning to organize a larger literary gathering here to suppress the limelight of Chen Luoyuan and Li Shishi.
In this way, when Ning Yi arrived, there were many people on the riverside, and some sailing boats were parked there. Probably the women among them were also invited to participate. Ning Yi made a vague appointment with Yunzhu and Jin'er, and found
It took a while to find them. The two girls put a lot of effort into dressing up in men's clothing. Ning Yi didn't notice them immediately. He was actually attracted by the confrontation scene over there. Several people were standing under the tree.
, it seems that the atmosphere is very bad. On one side are Yunzhu and Jin'er, and on the other side are three scholars and a brothel girl who seems to be an escort. Among them, Ning Yi also knows someone who he admired very much in the past.
Jin'er, the talented Liu Qingdi who went crazy when she saw Ning Yi being intimate with her.
But now it seems that Liu Qingdi's face is a little arrogant, while Jin'er's expression is hesitant. Probably because Liu Qingdi realized that he could not pick up girls, he had already started to have a rebellious mentality and decided not to give this flirtatious woman a good look.
See, there was a quarrel between the two sides...
Gee, it’s really ugly to pick up girls like this. Jin’er’s attitude towards picking up girls was much better than his…
Ning Yi sighed in his heart and was about to go over. Suddenly, a hand from behind reached out and grabbed his shoulder: "Brother Ning! Are you here too?"
The tone was quite surprising.
Ning Yi looked back and saw that the surprised person behind him had indeed seen him before. When he saw the woman named Wang that day, what was the name of the follower who was following her?
