206. Auspicious day(2/2)
Everyone laughed.
Aunt Bai specially pulled Su Liang aside and said she would leave a separate portion of the dish for Su Liang to take back to her guards. Aunt Bai didn't even tell her family about this.
Su Liang said no, the guard was sent out by her to deliver the message and left last night.
The lunch was very lively, and Su Liang also drank a glass of wine brewed by Uncle Bai himself.
When Su Liang came home in the afternoon, she didn't know what to do for a while. If Ning Jing was here, she would have gotten up before dawn to practice Kung Fu, then competed with Ning Jing, and then read a book when she was tired.
The originally planned life rhythm was disrupted, so Su Liang skipped practicing martial arts and went back to his room to read, planning to start practicing martial arts again tomorrow morning.
Dinner was at Subai's house.
Su Bai reported to Su Liang in detail the situation of the village school, how many students there are now, what age they are, how many wives there are, and how much money they spent to hire them.
"Because they don't need any money, some adults are also learning to read and write. According to what you said, they even hired an old accountant to teach them how to calculate accounts, and many people are going to learn it." Su Bai said with a smile, "As agreed, if who does it?
If someone commits adultery or does bad things, his or her child will not be allowed to study in the village school. Now the atmosphere in the village has improved a lot. It's all thanks to your blessing."
"Actually, it's because of peace." Su Liang said with a smile.
Su Bai asked seriously, "You and Mr. Ning are really going to get married this time, right? We all heard that you got engaged again in the capital, and some people said that if it weren't for Mr. Ning, which prince would you marry?
This issue?"
Su Liang shook his head, "It's okay. I come from a humble background. It's not easy to get into the royal family."
Su Bai said sternly, "I'm very good with Mr. Ning. You two are very compatible in every aspect. He is very kind and his family is simple."
Su Liang nodded, "That's right, he's the only one." Soon no one in the Ning family was gone, and the family property was hers, so cool...
After getting down to business, Su Liang said he would go to the school to have a look tomorrow and then left.
Su Bai insisted on sending her home, but Su Liang couldn't help but agreed.
On the way, Su Bai mentioned Su Liang's grandfather and asked her if she had ever thought about moving Su Yuanzhou's grave back.
"The fallen leaves are returning to their roots." Su Bai sighed, "I'm just telling you, if you don't want to go through any more trouble, forget it."
"Let me think about this matter." Su Liang said. It is indeed troublesome to move the grave, but Su Yuanzhou is indeed the first generation to leave this village, and the ancestral grave is here. Judging from his care for Su Daqiang's family for many years, if
If he can die well, he will definitely come back.
But Duanmu Sheng is not dead yet, and Su Liang is afraid that if he really wants to move the Su family's graves, there will be too much noise and it will cause destruction by some people, so he plans to deal with all the people who should be dealt with first.
"If you need people, just ask. There are plenty of people in the village, and they won't give a shit about your family affairs," Suba said.
Su Liang nodded, "Okay, if I bother you all then, I won't be polite."
If we really want to move the graves of Su Yuanzhou's family back, we must ask for help when we get to the village.
Su Bai sent Su Liang to the door of his house and watched her enter before leaving.
Su Liang read two more pages and then went to bed.
Su Liang got up early the next morning to run and exercise. After breakfast, she went to practice martial arts. She felt a little uncomfortable without Ning Jing watching. No one was there to compete with her, so she felt like something was wrong.
Su Liang went to Su Dakuan's house for lunch. Although he didn't kill a sheep, the old man killed a fat chicken to entertain her.
Erniu, who came home from school, recited the poems taught today seriously. Su Dakuan's face was full of joy, "Master said that Erniu is the material for studying. I will live a few more years to provide him with a good study."
Erniu frowned and said, "Grandpa, my name is Su Mingcheng."
Su Dakuan smiled and said, "Look at this boy, he won't be called by his nicknames after he studies."
"Su Mingcheng, what do you want to do when you grow up?" Su Liangxiao asked.
Erniu puffed out his chest and said, "I want to be the same as brother Ningjing, take the first prize and become a high official! Take my grandfather to the capital to enjoy the blessings!"
Su Liang gave a thumbs up, "You are ambitious."
In the afternoon, Su Liang said she wanted to make a hairpin. Su Dakuan gave her a scrap of good wood and taught her how to use a carving knife.
Su Liang thought she had learned it, so she took the tools home and started making hairpins.
As a result, just like the bracelet she made for Ningjing last time, the finished product looked natural and rustic, clumsy and not dexterous at all.
Su Liang carved the little flowers on the hairpin again, feeling that compared to Ning Jing's craftsmanship, it was only ten years short of Su Dakuan's...
There was nothing that could be painted at home, so Su Dakuan said that he had to go to the county town to buy some. Su Liang put it aside for now and planned to go to the city later.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and news spread that Wu Zhuangyuan had returned to the village.
On this day, the magistrate of Bei'an County made a special trip to visit Su Liang. It happened that she was not at home and was picking mushrooms in the forest with Aunt Bai.
The county magistrate waited for a long time before Su Liang came back. He was very respectful and brought many gifts to her.
Su Liang politely entertained the county magistrate for tea. After all, he hoped that the gentleman would take care of his relatives and friends in the village so that he could save his face. However, he only received two boxes of snacks as gifts, and the valuable ones were taken away.
After seeing off the county magistrate, Su Liang spread the collected mushrooms on a large sieve borrowed from the Bai family and placed them on a stone table in the courtyard to dry.
When the sun goes down, you take it back into your room and take it out again the next day when the sun comes up.
After three days of drying, I harvested a small basket of dried wild mushrooms.
Counting the time, Tingjing is almost here in the capital.
…
Since that day when he was knocked out by Xing Yusheng and Qi Yan while swimming, Qi Jun never swam in the lake again.
Even on the day when Lin Bojun and Qin Yujin got married, he just went over to give gifts and left. He didn't even attend the wedding banquet for fear of being discovered.
Knowing that Su Liang was going back to Sujiacun to live for a while, Qi Jun counted the time. When Su Liang and Ning Jing returned to Beijing, he would have to finish this mission at least by the end of May or the beginning of June.
That night, Qi Jun was lying on a peaceful bed and just closed his eyes when he suddenly heard a slight noise on the roof.
He suddenly opened his eyes, his expression condensed, and he sat up, thinking to himself, after these days, has trouble finally come?
The masked assassin broke through the window and Qi Jun drew his sword to greet him.
A moment later, the vase placed on the windowsill by Ningjing smashed to the ground and broke.
The person coming was very skilled in martial arts. Qi Jun knew he was outmatched and planned to find an opportunity to escape. He couldn't be killed, and he couldn't be found out to be fake. That would be terrible.
He just tried to pull away several times but failed, and there were two wounds on his body. Qi Jun was thinking that he would let down Su Liang and Ning Jing's expectations. When he was explaining this tonight, the assassin suddenly stiffened and knelt on the ground!
Qi Jun was a little dumbfounded. The next moment he saw another person come in and pull out a knife from the assassin's back.
Judging from the body shape, he looks very familiar.
"Master Ning?" Qi Jun looked happy.
Ning Jing's current appearance was that of Qi Jun, "Thank you for your hard work." After saying this, he leaned over and pulled off the black cloth on the assassin's face, and saw a scar on his cheek.
"Fortunately, Mr. Ning is back, otherwise I wouldn't be able to see the sun tomorrow." Qi Jun breathed a sigh of relief, "I don't know who sent this person."
The assassin was not dead yet, looking at them in disbelief, "You are... bullying me!"
"He belongs to the Sixth Prince." Ning Jing stepped on the assassin's head on the ground.
The assassin's eyes suddenly widened, his expression obviously flustered, "I...I'm not!"
This man had fought against Ningjing before, and the injuries on his face were due to Ningjing, but he didn't know it himself.
"Qi Jun."
When Ning Jing called him, Qi Jun's expression became serious, "What are your orders, Mr. Ning?"
"Su Liang wrote me a letter and sent you to send it back. You set out from Bei'an County six days ago and traveled day and night. You arrived tonight. After handing the letter to me, you returned to Zhongxinhou Mansion." Ning Jing said calmly.
Qi Jun was stunned, and it took him a while to realize that Ning Jing asked him to leave.
Su Liang left behind some wound medicine. Qi Jun took care of his wounds, washed off his disguise, changed into clean clothes, and packed his things.
"Mr. Ning, shall I leave then?" Qi Jun stood outside the door with a bag on his back.
"Well, I'll give you the thank you gift another day." Ning Jing's voice came from the room.
Qi Jun smiled and said, "You're welcome, Mr. Ning, take care."
After walking out of the courtyard, Qi Jun came back and said with a smile, "Young Master Ning probably doesn't know yet. Mr. Qin has chosen an auspicious day for you and Miss Su, which is the sixth day of June. When Miss Su comes back in a few days, you can
We got married! Earlier than my master and his wife!"
Hearing this, Ning Jing stabbed the assassin on the ground expressionlessly and replied to Qi Jun with one word, "Okay."
