Fortunate Young Gentleman
Chapter 20: Frenzy of Love
In ancient times, Qixi Festival was a very lively festival. In the first year when Tang Ning traveled through time, he did not have the opportunity to see this kind of liveliness.
The rain started from Qixi Festival and lasted for a day and a night. In addition to extinguishing Qing'er's desire to listen to the whispers of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, it also temporarily extinguished the heat that had been lingering for many days.
Father-in-law was naturally happy about this. The temperature dropped, which meant that no one would die of heat. Every year, people in Yong'an County died from this. If the heat prevention work was not done well, he, the county magistrate, should also bear some responsibility.
This year is even more different from previous years. A few days ago, because of the forced marriage, his relationship with the Lingzhou governor had reached a freezing point. The Lingzhou governor had not made a move to embarrass him for so long, which was not in line with common sense.
Tang Ning learned about the Lingzhou governor's personality from Tang Yaoyao. It is said that he is a petty person who is vindictive and vindictive. He is a villain among villains...
He estimated that the other party had not made any move for such a long time, and he should be waiting for the skill to cool down so that he could hold back a big move at that time.
One is the governor of a state, and the other is the magistrate of a county. The situation is not optimistic. Tang Ning is secretly alert, but the situation is too passive, and he is weak and can't really do anything.
All he can do is to help his father-in-law, the county magistrate, keep an eye on him and don't let him make any mistakes or be caught by others.
Tang Ning was tidying up his clothes in the room. Qing'er poked his head in from outside and asked, "Son-in-law, are you ready?"
Tang Ning adjusted his collar and said, "It's almost ready."
He had agreed to go out to a banquet with Zhong Yi tonight a few days ago.
Qing'er ran in from outside and said in surprise, "Son-in-law, why are you still wearing this clothes?"
At noon, Zhong Yi brought him a new piece of clothes. Tang Ning fiddled with it for a long time, but the buttons of the clothes were straight and slanted. He didn't know how to wear it, so he simply gave up.
Tang Ning picked up the clothes on the bedside table and asked, "How do I put this on?"
"Oh, you are so stupid, uncle!" Qing'er ran over, picked up the clothes, and said, "Qing'er will help you, hurry up, or the lady will be waiting anxiously!"
Tang Ning had no choice but to stretch out his hands and let her do it.
While helping him take off his clothes, Qing'er asked, "Uncle, the princess we talked about last time was taken away by the beast. What happened to her later?"
She was talking about the adapted version of "Beauty and the Beast" that Tang Ning told her last time.
Tang Ning said casually: "Later, the beast became a prince of another country, married the princess, and lived a shameless life."
Qing'er asked while helping her button up: "What is a shameless life?"
"Life after marriage is shameless."
"Then the son-in-law and the young lady are also shameless?"
"No."
"Oh..." Qing'er nodded, and said: "Son-in-law, tell another story..."
Tang Ning thought for a while and said: "Once upon a time, there was a county magistrate's daughter. She had a silly maid and a son-in-law..."
"Then what?"
"This silly maid was very silly and confused. She was always spanked for being disobedient."
"Then what?"
"That son-in-law went to bed early and got up early. He would not get up in the morning unless he was lying in bed."
...
After telling Qing'er the story, he put on his clothes.
Tang Ning stood in front of the mirror and looked at himself. He looked like a decent person. It seemed so.
To be honest, he looks a little more handsome now than in his previous life, but he looks a little thin and frail. He should not eat and sleep all the time in the future. He should consciously strengthen his exercise so that he can let Tang Yaoyao stand behind him when he encounters danger next time.
Tang Ning walked out of the yard and looked at Tang Yaoyao standing next to Zhong Yi. He was surprised and said, "You are going too?"
Tang Yaoyao looked at him and said unconvincedly, "Why can you go but I can't?"
Yes, of course.
Tang Ning wanted it very much.
He knew who were the people attending this banquet.
He heard from Zhong Yi that the banquet was hosted by a very prestigious family in Lingzhou City.
How prestigious was it...
The Fang family in Lingzhou had produced a Taifu, a prime minister, and two third-rank officials within four generations. Although the Fang family has long lost its former glory, it still has a lot of connections in the court. Not only that, one of the favorite concubines in the palace is the daughter of the Fang family.
The Fang family in Lingzhou is a place that even the governor of Lingzhou cannot afford to offend.
The old lady of the Fang family likes to be lively. This time, the old lady of the Fang family invited not only the famous ladies in Lingzhou City, but also a lot of talented people, among whom there are many suitors of Zhongyi.
Although Zhongyi did not say it clearly, Tang Ning could guess that her going there this time was somewhat to help her resist those wild bees and butterflies.
Two fists cannot beat four hands. Who knows how many suitors Zhongyi has? With Miss Tang, Tang Ning felt more at ease.
What wild bees and butterflies can resist Miss Tang's kick?
In the carriage, Tang Yaoyao looked depressed: "My father is really a fool. He insisted that I go to this crappy banquet. Those women have to write a few sour poems at any banquet. What's the point of writing poems? If you have the ability, just fight?"
Tang Ning could hear that Tang Yaoyao had a story.
Thinking of the scene where she was surrounded and forced to write poems, Tang Ning wanted to laugh.
Tang Yaoyao glanced at him and said angrily: "What are you laughing at!"
"Nothing..." Tang Ning shook his head and said, "I think what you said makes sense. If you have the ability, fight. There is nothing that can't be solved by fighting. What's the point of writing those crappy poems..."
Tang Yaoyao's embarrassed eyes turned into admiration, and asked, "Do you think so too?"
Tang Ning nodded seriously.
"You say one thing and mean another!" Tang Yaoyao glared at him and said, "You don't like writing poems, but you can write so well. Xiaoyi said she can't compare to you..., one thing on the surface, another behind the scenes, you men, none of you are good!"
This is a woman.
Tang Yaoyao was obviously in a bad mood, and Tang Ning simply closed his eyes and rested, so as not to suffer any more misfortune.
He was thinking about another thing these days.
Although Zhong Mingli used the power of the county government and did not find out his identity, it is impossible for such a living person to jump out of the cracks of the stone.
He is here, does he have any friends or relatives..., these are all things Tang Ning doesn't know.
Although this had nothing to do with him, Tang Ning always felt guilty if he didn't do something for such a big favor.
The carriage slowly stopped, and Tang Ning opened his eyes. Tang Yaoyao had already jumped off the carriage and helped Zhong Yi down.
It was not completely dark at this moment. Tang Ning jumped off the carriage and saw a mansion that was much more magnificent than the Zhong Mansion.
It is said that this is not the ancestral home of the Fang family, but just a garden of the Fang family in Lingzhou City.
At the gate, people walked in one after another.
Zhong Yi and Tang Yaoyao walked forward and handed over the invitation.
After checking the invitation, the servant smiled and stretched out his hand, saying: "Miss Zhong, Miss Tang, Mr. Tang, please come in..."
"These days, can any messy thing be called a young master?"
A cold snort came from the side, and the voice was three parts teasing and seven parts disdainful.
Zhong Yi frowned slightly, and Tang Yaoyao showed anger on his face.
Tang Ning looked back and saw several young men coming towards them.
The leader glanced at Zhong Yi and Tang Yaoyao, then stopped at him.
They were coming for him.
Tang Ning looked at him, sighed, and said, "Why do you say that, young master?"
Zhong Yi was stunned for a moment, then covered his mouth, almost unable to hold back his laughter.
Tang Yaoyao was stunned for longer than her, and after reacting, she covered her stomach and laughed without caring about her manners.
She bent over, covered her stomach with one hand, and slapped Tang Ning's shoulder with the other hand. Tang Ning's facial muscles twitched. As a woman, in public, couldn't she pay attention to her image...
More importantly, her hand was very strong, and it really hurt when she slapped!
