Chapter 50 第50章 Strange being together 奇怪的相处 Since end of the year, interaction already between Ning Yi and Su Tan'er becomes more and more natural. Naturally, here natural is not this age „husband and wife” the such pattern, but merely is „two odd people” interaction nothing more. 自从年关过后,宁毅与苏檀儿之间的相处模式已经变得越来越自然。当然,这里自然的并非是这个年代“夫妻”这样的模式,而仅仅是“两个怪人”的相处模式而已。 After years ago face-off, the Su Tan'er first time was the own position found balanced, after being at heart steadfast, many things were also relaxed. In the past always wants to take the trouble maintained „family/home” with effort the pattern, now does not use such desirably ; In the past must seek for the topic on the dining table on own initiative, which measuring was can say that which can be the opposite party are interested, which need to evade, so as to avoid caused the unhappiness of opposite party, discussed that the feeling of business also resembled, now naturally does not need like this, but topic but on the contrary were many, does not need deliberately to look, said anything casually, found it interesting. 年前的摊牌之后,苏檀儿第一次为自己的位置找到了平衡,心里踏实之后,许许多多的事情也就轻松起来。以往总想费心费力地维持“家”的模式,如今不用这么刻意了;以往总要在饭桌上主动寻找话题,权衡哪些是可以说的,哪些会是对方感兴趣的,哪些又需要避讳免得引起对方的不快,谈生意的感觉也似,如今自然也无需这样,但话题倒反而多了起来,根本无需刻意去找,随便说些什么,也是觉得有趣。 Although Ning Yi will go out to jog every morning, but husband and wife two people often meet within the home to have the breakfast to go out, direction by no means is the same, the Su Tan'er saddle horse car(riage), Ning Yi walks with light packs. Little Chan usually faced two choices at this time, with Young Lady with Young Master, she can also certainly keep within the home, but other two choices were obviously more useful, with Young Master in the past, was all right to do, but can listen to Young Master to teach, listened to some stories, listened to Young Master to say over and over again each time at will, fascinating, she is thinking Young Master was really quite profound...... 虽然宁毅每天早晨都会出去跑步,但夫妻两人往往还是会在家中吃过早餐才出门,方向并不一样,苏檀儿坐马车,宁毅则是轻装步行。小婵在这时通常面临两个选择,跟小姐还是跟姑爷,当然她也可以留在家中,但其余两个选择显然更有用,跟着姑爷过去,没什么事做,但可以听姑爷讲课,听些故事,每次听姑爷随意地说来说去,引人入胜,她就会想着姑爷真是好渊博…… Naturally, recently, Su Tan'er is quite busy, beginning of the spring time is this, therefore Little Chan follows Young Lady to go with the choice, front has said that although she when Ning Yi and Su Tan'er are pure, but sets up the matter to come nevertheless is quite reliable, she responsible by no means also took care of a servant to be good every day intimately, Ning Yi once saw the appearance that she has taught the person panting in indignation, is frowning very earnestly, simply fierce and violent, taught also while pointed out matter that several person fight and scheme against each other held back mutually: „Do not think that I have not seen!” The made up method arranges, said several, in the hand are brandishing a short rod point must hit the person simply, then looks that short rod gawked staring, pulled hair „, the ruler that Young Lady wanted......” turned head, „has not gone quickly!” After sending the people, turned around pū pū pū hurrying runs, Ning Yi keeps laughing in behind. She was regarded the administrators to train, naturally, these two also by no means conflict, is part in her temper. 当然,最近一段时间,苏檀儿是比较忙的,开春的时候都是这样,于是小婵还是跟选择跟着小姐去,前面说过,她虽然待宁毅和苏檀儿纯真质朴,但办起事情来却是相当可靠,她每天负责的也并不只是贴心地服侍一下人就好了,有一次宁毅就曾见过她气呼呼地训人的样子,皱着眉头非常认真,简直凶悍,一边训还一边指出其中几个人勾心斗角互拉后腿的事情来:“你别以为我没看见！”弥补的方法安排好,又说了几句,手中挥舞着一把短尺点点点点的简直要打人,然后才看着那短尺愣了愣,抓抓头发“遭了,小姐要的尺子……”一扭头,“还不快去！”打发众人之后,转身噗噗噗的赶紧跑,宁毅在后面笑个不停。她是被当成管理人员来培养的,当然,这两者也并不冲突,俱是她性子中的一部分。 Ning Yi goes home in noon or afternoon, sometimes with Little Chan together, because Little Chan will finish class before noon runs to look for him, if Little Chan has not passed, is he alone. Su Tan'er noon already had come back mostly, sometimes in room, sometimes in living room, sits in the pavilion in courtyard sometimes. Juan'er and Xing'er follow sometimes, sometimes can also not see, they also process in some main branch under the trivial matters of people. 宁毅会在中午或者下午回到家,有时与小婵一起,因为小婵会在中午下课之前跑去找他,若小婵没过去,自是他一个人。苏檀儿过了中午则多半已经回来了,有时在房间,有时在客厅,也有的时候坐在院子中的凉亭里。娟儿与杏儿有时跟着,有时也会不见,她们也得去处理一些大房之中下人们的琐事。 Su Tan'er when thinks the matter to like biting own hand, sometimes bites the fist, sometimes biting finger when gently, many are nobody manner that can reveal. Day of evening Ning Yi come back, the setting sun afterglow, Su Tan'er wears the pale yellow skirt to sit in in the pavilion reads a book, fair white teeth is gnawing the fingertip of thumb gently, occasionally crossed one page. Ning Yi walks, stood a while just to greet, Su Tan'er turned head suddenly, is nipping the fingertip as before, the big eye and Ning Yi looked the moment, the somewhat ignorant innocent feeling, soon after transferred, continued to read the account book peacefully. 苏檀儿在想事情的时候喜欢咬自己的手,有时候咬拳头,有时候轻轻的咬手指,多是无人之时才会露出的神态。有一天傍晚宁毅回来,夕阳余晖,苏檀儿穿着鹅黄色的裙子坐在凉亭里看一个本子,白皙的贝齿轻轻啃噬着拇指的指尖,偶尔翻过一页。宁毅走过去,站了一会儿正想打招呼,苏檀儿忽然回过头来了,依旧是咬着指尖,大大的眼睛与宁毅对望了片刻,有些懵懂无辜的感觉,随后又转了回去,安安静静地继续看账本。 Ning Yi sees her not to respond oneself, shrugs somewhat gets out of the way senselessly, thought that this woman is really calm, goes out not far, Su Tan'er shouted in the back: „husband! Your Eh died I!” When has turned head, the appearance of Su Tan'er Righteous Qi drum drum looks, is patting the chest with the hand. A moment later, Ning Yi shrugged speechless, Su Tan'er also smiles ill-humoredly. 宁毅见她不搭理自己,耸耸肩有些无趣地走开,心想这女人真淡定,走出不远,苏檀儿在背后喊起来:“相公！你吓死我了！”回过头时,苏檀儿正气鼓鼓的模样望过来,用手轻拍着心口。片刻之后,宁毅无言地摊了摊手,苏檀儿也没好气地笑出来。 From going home, to finishing eating food, evening pastime, to sleeps finally, everyone is gathers together, the speech chatted, discussed that this discussed that. Sometimes, Ning Yi will think that Su Tan'er and former oneself were somewhat similar, the specific issue that naturally faced will be different, the mood, was at a loss differently. Sometimes he thinks, the issue that Su Tan'er faces is perhaps severer than oneself, she is a woman, if Su Family has a man more intelligent has an ability point, matter very simple, if she, matter Jane/simple will also answer stupidly very much, she in this crevices, therefore can only forward, but must often face the issue that the because of oneself female status faces. 从回到家,到吃完饭,晚间的消遣,到最后就寝,大家都是聚在一起,说话聊天,谈这谈那。有时候,宁毅会觉得苏檀儿与以前的自己有些类似,当然面临的具体问题会不一样,心情、迷惘也不一样。有时候他想,苏檀儿面临的问题或许比自己更严苛,她是个女人,如果苏家有一个男子更聪明更有能力一点,事情会很简单,如果她笨一点,事情也会很简答,偏偏她处于这个夹缝间,于是就只能向前,还得不时面对因为自己女性身份而面临的问题。 Sometimes they „chance encounter” one time near 2nd floor that pillar. About every several days, has a look at the scenery of entire Su Family mansion together. Su Tan'er will say that some at sixes and sevens things, some cannot before others say that even if in front of them said in Chan'er and Juan'er is not good, is mainly pointless, or is she in the business planned, some self-satisfied small planning, there is a gossip, had a cousin just in her here error several hundred two money, said that saw the equally good chinaware, bought the price definitely to rise, giving money that Su Tan'er smiled, turned the head saying that to Ning Yi that fellow raised the woman outside, bit finger saying: „Later can threaten him, otherwise told Elder Brother's Wife, making Elder Brother's Wife go noisily......” 有时候他们会在二楼的那根柱子边“巧遇”一次。大概每隔几天的时间,一块看看整个苏家大宅的风景。苏檀儿会说些乱七八糟的事情,有些是不能在旁人面前说的,就算在婵儿、娟儿她们面前说了也不好,主要是没有意义,或者是她在生意上的一些打算,一些得意的小算计,也有家长里短,有个堂哥刚在她这里讹了几百两银子,说看见一样好瓷器,买了价格肯定有涨,苏檀儿笑眯眯的给钱,转头上来跟宁毅说那家伙在外面养了女人,咬着手指说:“以后可以威胁他,要不然就告诉嫂嫂,让嫂嫂去闹……” Su Tan'er is very intelligent, has the talent in doing business very much, but after all is only the 19-year-old age, the pressure that faces, many time nowhere sue, Ning Yi perhaps is only one by one can give her with the reduced pressure space object. The thing that in her opinion oneself said that this husband understands part, but not necessarily does to understand versatilely, sometimes Ning Yi also said the thing that several she does not understand, she such is listening, such time, even if the Ning Yi speech word usage is strange, the thing that said is incomprehensible, she will not feel unusual. 苏檀儿很聪明,在经商上也很有天赋,但毕竟只是19岁的年纪,面临的压力,许多时候无处去诉,宁毅或许是唯一一个能够给她以减压空间的对象。在她看来自己说的东西,这个相公懂一部分,但未必全能搞明白,宁毅有时候也说几句她不懂的东西,她就那样听着,这样的时刻,就算宁毅说话用词再古怪,说的东西再不可理解,她也不会感到稀奇。 Having a matter is quite unusual, perhaps the first time is when chatted together to her Century Egg, chatted for the second time, Su Tan'er somewhat started to speak but hesitated, soon after asked: „husband has not brought to eat?” Then said, „next time will bring the point to eat.” 有件事情是比较奇特的,或许是第一次在一起聊天时给她一颗松花蛋,第二次聊完,苏檀儿有些欲言又止,随后问道:“相公没带吃的吗？”然后说,“下次带点吃的吧。” After that holds the point to eat to her, a packet sugar, peanut and candied date and so on, Su Family are not short of money, provide these things to have no pressure, there is this season already the pear that is difficult to eat. Once Ning Yi took a pie conveniently, beginning winter end spring, the weather is cold, freezing is like the dried beef. Su Tan'er did not mind, took ripped in the mouth slowly, finished eating well satisfied. Then said: „husband intentional.” 此后给她揣点吃的,一小包糖、花生、蜜枣之类的,苏家不差钱,提供这些东西没什么压力,也有这个季节已经很难吃到的梨。有一次宁毅顺手拿了一张大饼,冬末春初,天气冷,冻得跟牛肉干一样。苏檀儿也不介意,拿了在嘴边慢慢撕,吃完了心满意足。然后才说:“相公故意的吧。” To in February/two months, the topic was more optional, they seem like this time very strange friend, doing business, a lane departing from the classics and betraying principle small invention. Once Su Tan'er asked Ning Yi: „Why husband never goes to the places of these brothels, goes to invitations of these talent?” 到得二月,话题就更加随意了,他们看起来像是这个时代很奇怪的朋友,一个经商,一个弄点离经叛道的小发明。有一次苏檀儿问宁毅:“相公为何从来不去那些青楼之地,赴赴那些才子的邀约呢？” Ning Yi shrugs: „Two words, will unable to soak little girl Ah…...” 宁毅耸耸肩:“就会两首词,泡不到妞啊……” Su Tan'er thinks there for a long time understands these words probably, smiled: „Spends money to pound them, these younger male cousin Younger Male Cousin, each time dozens two from Tan'er here error, patronage also is completely some famous. husband with previous several hundred two, in addition the fame for talent, what Qilan, Lu Caicai they, see above several want not to have issue really...... was right, after the evening of the lantern festival, pouring to hear that Young Lady Qilan is quite sincere about husband, on the evening of several th, recited husband Green Jadeite Bowl every night, tweedle persuasive chilly anything, perhaps, husband can also become what charming story with her certainly......” 苏檀儿在那儿想了好久才大概理解这句话,笑了出来:“用钱砸她们嘛,那些堂弟表弟啊,每次从檀儿这里讹上几十两,光顾的也尽是些有名气的。相公拿上几百两,再加上才名,什么绮兰啊、陆采采她们啊,见上几面想是无甚问题的……对了,元夕之后,倒听人说那绮兰姑娘对相公颇为倾心呢,有几日晚上,夜夜吟唱相公的青玉案,琴声婉转凄绝什么的,说不定啊,相公还能跟她成什么佳话……” She transfers the eye to shoot a look at Ning Yi, Ning Yi pondered, nods: „Has this matter? I will go to one tomorrow evening well...... others after all not easy......” 她转着眼睛瞥瞥宁毅,宁毅想了想,点点头:“有这种事？那我明晚去一趟好了……人家毕竟也不容易……” Late what Su Tan'er this eats is the broad bean, the vision coldly shoots a look at him, soon after creaks bites for quite a while, soon after snort/hum smiles: „That husband then takes Little Chan to go together.” 苏檀儿这晚吃的是蚕豆,目光冷冷地瞥他,随后嘎吱嘎吱地咬半天,随后哼的一笑:“那相公便带上小婵一块去吧。” Ning Yi nearby is not short of money, because mainly has been able to want with Little Chan, he uses are not many, Su Tan'er has not had what opinion at these things. However even if Little Chan clever (child), if Ning Yi really runs a move of prostitute, which Little Chan will stand in one side can be imagined, even in the surface anything does not say, will definitely still cause under the Yin move the short rope/obstruction. At this time sighed the one breath: „Only the female and villain are difficult to raise...... your woman is also hypocritical and malicious, not sincere. Broad bean also I, not allowed to ate!” 宁毅身边不缺钱,主要因为一直可以跟小婵要,他用的不多,苏檀儿也未在这些事情上有什么意见。不过就算小婵乖巧,若宁毅真跑去招妓,小婵会站在哪一边可想而知,就算表面上什么都不说,肯定也会使阴招下绊子。这时叹一口气:“唯女子与小人难养也……你这女人口蜜腹剑,一点都不实诚。蚕豆还我,不许吃了！” Su Tan'er took small bag drawing back suddenly one step, only smiles looks like the fox: „Tan'er did business for several years, never listened to the merchant really to have the sincere, husband then took on.” 苏檀儿拿了小袋子突的退开一步,笑得像只狐狸:“檀儿经商好几年了,从未听过商人真有实诚的,相公便担待吧。” In February/two months in this type in average not wonderful the day passed to Ning Yi, the student, Nie Yunzhu, Little Chan, Su Tan'er, chemical industry , met with Old Qin and Old Kang sometimes, several chats, understand Song Xian and Ardent Wu Army situation from other ways sometimes. He recalls martial arts of that female, but that female assassin also already after the evening of the lantern festival, disappearance vast however. 二月就在这种对宁毅而言平平无奇的日子里过去了,学生、聂云竹、小婵、苏檀儿、化工、有时也跟秦老、康老碰个面,几句闲谈,有时从其它途径了解一下宋宪、武烈军的情况。他回忆那女子的武功,不过那女刺客也已在元夕之后,消失渺然。 In early March, the Su Family business is also busy, but Su Tan'er vacated for day, goes to outside Jiangning City with Ning Yi and three maidservant together the picnic. This afternoon comes back, goes to the teahouse to drink tea, accidentally actually hears the next door to have the person who several scholars dress up to discuss Century Egg, said that is the present operates that Century Egg female is the beautiful woman of talent and skill outstanding in both fields, but is only willing both hands to support oneself, studied the Century Egg facture, talent admired its disposition, had pursued several years, at this time slightly executed the sub-total, in less than half a month then opened the sale for that novel thing and so on. 三月初,苏家生意也忙,不过苏檀儿还是空出了一天,与宁毅、三个丫鬟一块去江宁城外郊游。这天下午回来,去茶楼喝茶,无意间却听得隔壁有几个学子打扮的人在谈论松花蛋,说是如今经营那松花蛋的女子是才艺双绝的佳人,不过只愿双手养活自己,研究出了松花蛋的制法,一位才子仰慕其心性,本已追求数年,此时略施小计,不到半月便为那新奇事物打开销路云云。 In fact now Nie Yunzhu, although is also busy, but must say that the Century Egg fame spreads very far that is not not possible. This time several people discussed that „slightly to execute sub-total”, indeed oneself made Li Pin help find the person matter that when held. in the heart is funny, does not know how Li Pin had the relations for this matter with Nie Yunzhu, but also the pursue anything, the conduct was not careful for several years, then Li Pin however asked for trouble. However listens to the moment again, discovered that the matter is not such. 事实上如今聂云竹虽然也忙,但要说松花蛋的名气传出很远那也不可能。这时的几人谈论那“略施小计”,正是自己让李频帮忙找人当托的事情。心中好笑,不知道李频怎么为这件事跟聂云竹扯上关系了,还追求数年什么的,行事太不小心,这下李频可是惹火烧身了。不过再听片刻,才发现事情并非如此。 „This Gu Hong Gu Yanzhen several years ago then has raised Jiangning, this time returns from Dongjing, then for this female, he has the academic honor now in the body, was still passionately devoted about it, the reality is rare......” “这顾鸿顾燕桢几年前便已名扬江宁,此次自东京归来,便是为这女子,他如今已有功名在身,对其仍一往情深,实是难得……” „Technique uses also ingenious, but several days time, then by the problem solve...... the talent beautiful woman, if given time, must become the charming story.” “手法用的也巧妙,不过数日时间,便以将问题解决……才子佳人,假以时日,必成佳话。” „below feels not so, the female appears in public, manages this grade of business, solid non- matches good......” “在下却觉得不然,那女子抛头露面,操持这等生意,实非良配……” Hears one, detected these people discussed is completely that is called the Gu Hong Gu Yanzhen man, recalled that Nie Yunzhu seemed like some implications issues in the past few days, unexpectedly thinks something, cannot help but shook the head to smile. 听得一阵,才发觉这些人讨论的尽是那名叫顾鸿顾燕桢的男子,回想起聂云竹前些天似乎有些涵义的问题,倒是想到了一些事情,不由得摇头笑笑。 When 2nd day before dawn, to that small building before, just like Nie Yunzhu sat in that stair superior him in the past generally, saw him to come, reveals not different smile of one in the ordinary day, Ning Yi looks at her a while, faint rubbed the forehead: „It was recently tired?” 第二天天未亮,到那小楼之前时,聂云竹正如往常一般坐在那台阶上等他,见到他过来,露出一个与平日里无异的笑容,宁毅看了她一会儿,微微揉揉额头:“最近很累？” „Uh?” Nie Yunzhu gawked staring, soon after, somewhat confuses shakes the head. “呃？”聂云竹愣了愣,随后,有些迷惑地摇了摇头。 Ning Yi sits down in side, is considering the words and expressions: „Why...... has not stated clearly with that Gu Yanzhen, making him...... stop the matter?” 宁毅在旁边坐下,斟酌着词语:“为什么……没跟那个顾燕桢明说一下,让他……把事情停下来？” The morning breeze in darkness has the chill in the air, before small building, falls into one piece silent middle. After the moment, the Nie Yunzhu sound conveys from side: „How Liheng...... can...... Liheng...... why...... ask this......” 黑暗中的晨风带着寒意,小楼前陷入一片沉默当中。片刻后,聂云竹的声音从旁边传来:“立恒……怎么会……立恒……为什么……问这个……” „Uh, I heard...... that Gu Yanzhen......” the Ning Yi booth lets go, does not know how should express. “呃,我就是听说了……那个顾燕桢……”宁毅摊摊手,不知道该怎么表达。 „I...... I and I do not have...... Liheng that the relations...... they talked nonsense with that Gu Yanzhen...... Uh...... I......” “我……我、我跟那顾燕桢没关系……他们瞎说的……立恒……呃……我……” The Nie Yunzhu sound seems like some is not right, Ning Yi turned head to look at the past, ray that in the darkness only then in one side house transmitted, in the ray the expression of female somewhat seemed to be resentful, wants to stress that anything also somewhat could not hold the key appearance. Ning Yi looked at the long time, feels unreadable, to say slowly: „Um, I knew......” 聂云竹的声音似乎有些不对,宁毅扭头望过去,黑暗中只有一侧房屋中传来的光芒,光芒之中女子的表情似乎有些愤懑,想要强调些什么却又有些抓不住重点的样子。宁毅看了半晌,觉得难以理解,缓缓地说道:“嗯,我知道了……” Nie Yunzhu looked at his one eyes, is frowning appearance that must cry simply, but soon after or inhales deeply, the vision looked earnestly to Ning Yi, opened the mouth to stress, one word at a time. 聂云竹望了他一眼,皱着眉头简直是要哭出来的样子,但随后还是深吸了一口气,目光认真地望向了宁毅,开口强调,一字一顿。 „I with that Gu Yanzhen, doesn't matter.” “我跟那个顾燕桢,没有关系。”
