Fortunate Young Gentleman

Chapter 171 Two Women Arrive in Beijing

The capital city is indeed not short of rich people. There are so many people buying novels that cost 500 wen per volume. It is estimated that when the 20 volumes of "Romance of the Western Chamber" are finished, his big house that can accommodate many people will be settled.

For the sake of so many silver notes, he will not bother with Manager Peng about the two taels of silver.

Tang Yaoyao pushed the door in, and Tang Ning hurriedly put away the silver notes on the bed.

She glanced at Tang Ning and said, "What are you afraid of? I don't want your money."

This is not a question of money, but a question of courtesy. What if she pushed the door in and saw him changing clothes, what if she saw him taking a bath, what if she saw Su Fox sleeping on his bed?

Tang Yaoyao seemed to remember something, suddenly looked at him and asked, "Where is your friend surnamed Su? I haven't seen her for a long time."

She thought about it carefully. The last time she saw that fox spirit was when she was having dinner at Tianranju.

Not knowing why Tang Yaojing suddenly mentioned Su Mei, Tang Ning looked at her and said, "She left the capital for something and may not be back for a few months."

Tang Yaoyao looked at him and asked, "You haven't seen her, how do you know she left the capital?"

"..."Tang Ning thought for a while and said, "Xiao Jue told me."

Tang Yaoyao walked out the door and waved to the people downstairs. Xiao Jue came up and asked vigilantly, "Miss Tang, is there something wrong?"

Ever since he saw Lu Teng flying out of Hongxiu Pavilion last time, he has been wary of this long-legged girl.

Tang Yaoyao looked at him and asked, "Are you familiar with Miss Su Meisu?"

Xiao Jue thought for a moment, looked at Tang Ning, and said, "Not as familiar as him."

Tang Yaojing was about to ask again, but Shopkeeper Xu ran up from downstairs and said, "Miss, there are two girls downstairs looking for you and Mr. Tang, one is named Zhong, the other is named Su..."

Tang Yaojing's figure disappeared instantly, Shopkeeper Xu turned around and stared at her jumping directly from the upstairs.

Tang Ning was stunned for a moment, then strode out of the door and walked downstairs.

Xiao Jue followed her downstairs with a puzzled look on his face.

Downstairs, Tang Yaoyao held Zhong Yi and Su Ru's hands and asked, "Why did you come so late? Where are uncle and aunt?"

Zhong Yi looked at her and smiled, "Dad and mom went to the county government first. Xiao Ru and I came to find you."

She looked at Tang Ning coming downstairs, smiling, and whispered, "Husband."

Tang Ning opened her arms and gently hugged Zhong Yi while he was stunned.

Zhong Yi blushed and hurriedly stepped back. Su Ru beside him looked at him and lowered her head and said, "Brother Xiao Ning."

Tang Ning also gave Xiao Ru a hug. Tang Yaoyao looked at her and said, "I want to hug too..."

Tang Ning was surprised and said, "You?"

"I'm not talking about you!" Tang Yaoyao glared at him, hugged Zhong Yi and Su Ru, and said, "That's good. Now that you come to the capital, I won't be so bored."

Tang Ning glanced at her. She was boring as hell. All she did all day was listen to romance stories and play mahjong, waiting for Xiao Ru and Xiao Yi to come and join a table.

Xiao Jue stood at the stairs, looking at the two women Tang Ning hugged in front and behind, standing there, as if petrified.

He stretched out one hand, counted, and then stretched out the other hand.

Shopkeeper Xu stood upstairs, looked at the two strange women, and then looked at his own lady, as if he had discovered something extraordinary, with a look of shock on his face, and then he forced himself to calm down.

Tang Ning and the others did not stay in Hongxiu Pavilion for long. When they arrived at Ping'an County Office, the servants of the mansion had almost settled everything.

When his mother-in-law saw him, she naturally asked about his well-being again.

Zhong Mingli looked at him with some relief and some complexity. The letter that Tang Ning sent to Lingzhou had been received before they set off. At that time, he realized that this sudden and unreasonable transfer order was not because His Majesty took the wrong medicine, but that he once again benefited from his son-in-law.

Although he felt a little complicated, he finally let go of his hanging heart.

"Qing'er, help your son-in-law clean up a room later." Chen Yuxian instructed Qing'er, then looked at Tang Ning and said, "Ning'er, pack up your things later and move in today."

Tang Ning nodded.

Chen Yuxian looked at Tang Yaoyao again and said, "Yaoyao, don't live outside anymore. Move to the county government office. Before we left Lingzhou, your father repeatedly told us to take good care of you."

"My father?" Tang Yaoyao stuck out her tongue and asked, "Is my father okay?"

Chen Yuxian smiled and said, "It's okay. He was angry for two days, but he got better later."

Tang Yaoyao finally put his mind at ease, took Chen Yuxian's hand, and said, "Then I'll move in today."

Zhongyi moved his room The things inside were stored in a large box. Tang Ning had it moved to his new room. He took out a booklet from it, flipped through it from beginning to end, memorized it, and threw it to Xiao Jue, saying, "This is what you want."

Xiao Jue showed a happy expression on his face and said, "I'll give it back to you after I copy it."

Tang Ning waved his hand and said, "No need to return it. I don't need it."

Xiao Jue thought about it carefully, counted on his fingers silently, and finally admitted that Tang Ning might not really need this thing.

However, the prescription was useful to him, so the secret technique should not be fake. He looked at Tang Ning and said seriously, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Tang Ning confirmed that he had memorized every page in his mind, and waved again, saying, "It's my duty to help my friend in need."

Xiao Jue punched him lightly on the shoulder and said, "I, Xiao Jue, will recognize you as my friend in this life."

Although Xiao Jue was considered a dandy, he was different from other dandies in the capital. According to his experience, those who couldn't get up in the morning were generally not bad people. Tang Ning punched him on the shoulder to express her approval.

He lay on the bed and breathed a sigh of relief.

Since he arrived in the capital, there have been bumps along the way, but things seem to have been developing in a good direction.

The next big thing is the upcoming provincial examination.

After the provincial examination, no matter what the result is, he will have to complete the steps that he did not complete last time he got married.

By that time, he and Xiao Jue would be really different.

In Zhong Yi's room, Tang Yaoyao looked at Zhong Yi who was cleaning up the room. Thinking of Tang Ning's life experience, she opened her lips. After thinking about it carefully, she still didn't say it out loud.

Zhong Yi placed a thin booklet on the table, turned around and asked, "Yaoyao, how many volumes of The Romance of the West Chamber have been published in the capital?"

Tang Yaoyao thought for a while and said, "It seems to be the fifth volume."

Although it is only the fifth volume, she has read all twenty volumes. In addition, there are also "The Peony Pavilion" and "The Palace of Eternal Life" that have not appeared in the capital yet...

Zhong Yi said happily: "The capital is indeed faster than the neighboring Tongzhou. I thought this book only had four volumes."

Tang Yaoyao looked at her and said, "If you like to read it, I have the fifth volume there and will give it to you tonight."

"Okay." Zhong Yi sat beside the bed, looking at her as if he remembered something, and asked: "The author of this book is also named Li Qing..."

Tang Yaoyao was startled and hurriedly explained: "This Li Qing is not the Li Qing you know..."

"Of course I know it's not the case. It is said that this Li Qing is an unknown talent in the capital..." Zhong Yi smiled, looked at her and said, "By the way, last time we said goodbye to Lingzhou in a hurry, we never saw each other again. I have always felt sorry for meeting Miss Li Qing. When everything is settled in two days, let’s go visit her..."

Tang Yaoyao was stunned in place and murmured: "She, she..."

"What's wrong?" Zhong Yi looked at her and asked doubtfully, "Is it inconvenient?"

"She is not in the capital now." Tang Yaoyao thought for a while and said with regret: "She likes to play around on weekdays. When I arrived in the capital, she had already left. I don't know where she went. I don't know where she went. When will you come back..."

Tangning walked in from outside and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Tang Yaoyao looked at him with a complicated expression: "We are talking about cousin Li Qing..."
