Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Marriage Contract
"Old man, is Feng'er really back?"
In a Suzhou courtyard next to the Humble Administrator's Garden in Suzhou City, two old people sat opposite each other, a husband and wife, the old woman was wearing a cheongsam, medium in stature, but she was radiant, and her appearance was somewhat similar to Lin Zhifeng.
Opposite Lao Suo was dressed in a Mao suit, tall, his hair was meticulously combed, and his sitting posture was extremely upright, after hearing the old woman's words, Lao Suo laughed, obviously very happy: "Come back, this kid has been out of business for so many years, and now he is finally home." ”
Hearing this, the old woman was extremely happy.
The two are Lin Zhifeng's grandfather Lin Shouguo and grandmother Ding Chuntao, and the purpose of Lin Zhifeng and Zhao Yuanshu's trip to Suzhou is to visit the two old people.
As if remembering something, Ding Chuntao suddenly said with a smile on his face: "Since we Feng'er is back, then what Lao Zhao and his wife agreed with us back then... ”
It's just that before Ding Chuntao finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Shouguo: "When is it now, you still have to engage in arranged marriages." ”
Ding Chuntao sighed, and said with some pity: "I really like that female doll, although her temperament is colder, she is not bad-hearted, and she looks good, if my little Feng'er can marry this daughter-in-law, I am afraid that I can wake up with a smile even if I dream." ”
"Okay, don't talk about this matter anymore, even if you really want it, you can only mention it in Yuanshu first. Lin Shouguo obviously thought the same as his wife, and did not say anything to death.
Ding Chuntao seemed to think of something, and said with some joy: "Do you remember? The fortune teller back then said that Feng'er had a relationship with the Zhao family, so we made a marriage contract with the old Zhao family." ”
"Godfather, godmother, Yuanshu has come to see you. Lin Shouguo was just about to speak, when he heard someone knocking at the door of the courtyard, and he was overjoyed, it turned out to be Zhao Yuanshu coming to the door.
Lin Zhifeng came to Suzhou in a daze, but he didn't expect that Zhao Yuanshu's destination was actually the courtyard of his grandparents, and Zhao Yuanshu actually called his grandparents godfather and godmother?!
With excitement, Lin Zhifeng finally saw his grandparents who he hadn't seen for many years.
Zhao Yuanshu said with a smile: "Godfather and godmother, look at who I brought you?"
"Feng'er!" Lin Shouguo and his wife looked in the direction of Zhao Yuanshu's finger, and finally saw their precious grandson who they hadn't seen for many years.
"Grandpa!" Lin Zhifeng knelt on his knees, his eyes were already red, his grandparents had not seen him for many years, and he was a lot older.
"Good boy, get up, just come back, grandparents are happy!" Lin Shouguo and his wife hurriedly helped their grandson, also with tears in their eyes, Zhao Zixin seemed to be moved by this warm scene, and covered her mouth with moist eyes.
The first thing to react was Lin Shouguo, smiling and pulling everyone into the door, the courtyard scenery was excellent, one step at a time, the group did not feel bored at all while watching and walking, Zhao Yuanshu has been praising Ding Chuntao for taking care of it well, managing a huge courtyard in an orderly manner, and praising the old man with joy.
Lin Zhifeng is now more and more confused, grandma was in politics when she was young, grandpa taught martial arts, and left a lot of protégés, but he has never heard of grandparents having such a godson as Zhao Yuanshu since he was a child, looking at the conversation between the three, he obviously treats Zhao Yuanshu as a son, with questions, but Lin Zhifeng is not in a hurry to speak, he knows that grandparents will definitely mention this matter to him.
Sure enough, Lin Shouguo took someone to sit down in the living room and looked at Lin Zhifeng and said with a smile: "It seems that your kid already knows your Uncle Yuanshu, okay, you don't need grandpa to introduce you to each other." ”
"Yuanshu is the son of grandpa's old friend Zhao Lei's grandfather, I remember that when you were a child, Grandpa Zhao Lei also taught you kung fu, do you remember?"
Speaking of Lin Shouguo, Lin Zhifeng also remembered the past, and said with a smile: "Remember, I still remember that Grandpa Zhao taught Tai Chi back then, and I was disobedient at that time, and I deliberately urinated on Grandpa Zhao's pants." ”
Hearing this, Lin Shouguo laughed, Zhao Yuanshu also smiled a little, and looked at Lin Zhifeng's gaze a little warmer.
Ding Chuntao glared at Lin Zhifeng, and said in a reproachful tone: "You still dare to say that you were the most naughty when you were a child, and it is thanks to your grandfather Zhao that he is big-minded, otherwise you would have been indispensable with a whip at that time." ”
Everyone laughed and talked about the past, everyone was very happy, Lin Zhifeng also learned that Zhao Yuanshu's father, that is, the grandfather Zhao Lei he had seen when he was a child, and his grandfather Lin Shouguo were classmates, and they were each other's confidants after leaving the society, and the two agreed to teach each other in the future, so Lin Zhenyong and Lin Zhenyi's master since childhood should be Zhao Lei, and Zhao Yuanshu has followed Lin Shouguo since childhood, no wonder he will call Lin Zhifeng's grandfather his godfather.
It's a pity that Old Man Zhao is not in good health and died ten years ago, and his wife Huang Jing is depressed and unhappy, and she also left two years after Zhao Lei's death, so Lin Zhifeng will not be impressed by them.
When Lin Shouguo said this, his expression was a little sluggish, but Zhao Yuanshu suddenly said at this time: "Godfather, my father made a marriage contract with you before that of Zhifeng's nephew and Zixin, and it should be fulfilled today." ”
After Zhao Yuanshu finished speaking, his eyes looked directly at Lin Zhifeng and Zhao Zixin, both of them were a little unclear, but Zhao Zixin looked at his father's eyes, and had a very bad premonition in his heart.
She knew that she had a fiancé she had never met, but her father and mother usually didn't mention it much, so she didn't care, but after visiting Lin Zhenyi yesterday, her father always mentioned this matter in front of her.
Ding Chuntao was overjoyed, but Lin Shouguo was stunned, he didn't expect Zhao Yuanshu to mention this matter, and said with some hesitation: "Yuanshu, it doesn't matter if you are in charge of the kid, but this matter depends on your daughter's thoughts, now that the times are different, you can't force young people, let alone a lifelong event." ”
Lin Zhifeng was a little angry, what is Zhifeng, this kid doesn't matter, it's too annoying, I don't have human rights?
Zhao Zixin finally couldn't help but get up and said: "I don't marry, I haven't known him for a day, and I don't even know what kind of person she is, why should I marry him." ”
Zhao Yuanshu's eyes were a little red, and he had always spoiled his daughter, but his attitude was extremely tough at this time: "Your grandfather's last wish before he died, even if he wants to complete this marriage, you have no right to refuse." ”
"Grandpa is grandpa, I am me, don't you want to use grandpa to press me, no matter what you say today, I will not marry this person " Zhao Zixin finally pointed at Lin Zhifeng, her pretty face was covered with frost.
Lin Zhifeng's face was also a little unsightly at this time, if he was usually belittled by Zhao Zixin like this, he would only laugh it off, after all, he teased Zhao Zixin fiercely yesterday, but now in front of his grandparents, Zhao Zixin's attitude is clearly not giving face to his grandparents, which makes him very unhappy.
Facing Zhao Zixin's eyes, Lin Zhifeng said without showing weakness: "You won't marry me? ”
Zhao Zixin heard that he wouldn't marry her, and she couldn't say anything in her heart, but when she heard the last crazy woman, Zhao Zixin completely broke out, she knew that Lin Zhifeng was saying that she slapped him in the parking lot yesterday, but at that time she didn't know that Lin Zhifeng was trying to save him, and thought that Lin Zhifeng was taking advantage of her, and originally wanted to apologize to him next time they met, but now it seems impossible.
Zhao Yuanshu frowned, the scene was even worse than he thought, his heart was horizontal, and he said coldly to his daughter: "If you agree to the marriage contract today, you won't have to work in the company tomorrow." ”
"Dad!" Zhao Zixin didn't expect her father to be so resolute, and she couldn't hold back her grievances anymore.
Zhao Yuanshu looked at his daughter's crying face, and his heart was also soft, he was indeed too unreasonable.
After half a ring, seeing that his daughter had no intention of compromising, Zhao Yuanshu finally sighed and said: "In this way, let you and Zhifeng try to be together for three months first, Zhifeng is good, let him be by your side to protect your safety, if you still have this attitude after three months, no matter who you marry in the future, I will no longer force you, but no matter what the result is, you will have to hold a wedding in three months, even if it is a formality, you must comfort your grandfather's spirit in the sky." ”
Zhao Zixin finally stopped crying when she heard this, although she was still unwilling, but compared to the previous conditions, this could still be accepted by her, as long as she ensured that she would spend the March period safely and steadily, she was still free, Zhao Zixin thought of this, and finally nodded to Zhao Yuanshu, which was considered to be agreed.
Zhao Yuanshu couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw this, and turned his head to look at Lin Zhifeng, he knew in his heart that although he didn't consider Lin Zhifeng's feelings in and out of what he said just now, he regarded Lin Zhifeng as a tacit acquiescence, but Lin Zhifeng was the most difficult person to deal with.
Sure enough, Lin Zhifeng frowned, he is a god-level master, as long as he wants, he can hook his fingers casually, and the person who wants to ask him to be a bodyguard can line up from the Great Wall all the way to Moscow, Zhao Yuanshu actually wants to be a bodyguard for Zhao Zixin, of course he is unwilling.
But what he didn't expect was that before he could say no, Lin Shouguo suddenly slapped the table and shouted, "Okay! Since the little girl Zixin agreed, then do what your kid asked." ”
"Grandpa!" Lin Zhifeng was a little aggrieved, and his grandfather's attitude was as if he couldn't marry a daughter-in-law.
Zhao Zixin is a little angry, she is also one of the four beauties in the Shanghai business world, and he is still unwilling, he really doesn't know how to lift.
"That's it, you kid don't want to make any trouble for me. Lin Shouguo was not calm at all, and blew his beard and glared at his beloved grandson.
Zhao Yuanshu smiled like a fox, this situation is obviously what he wants to see, otherwise he would not bother the two old men, for Lin Zhifeng, he certainly has the intention of keeping the marriage contract back then, this is simply one of his heart diseases. But more, Zhao Yuanshu is optimistic about Lin Zhifeng, a young man, he went back to find someone to check, Lin Zhifeng's things back then shocked him very much, a young man, can actually stir up the entire Shanghai underworld for a whole year, you know, Lin Zhifeng was only 16 years old that year, and he received the news, last night Lin Zhifeng single-handedly smashed the Huaihai bar field, this matter was in a uproar, the most surprising thing is that Lin Zhifeng also walked out unharmed, so he came to Suzhou with Lin Zhifeng today, not without the intention of protecting Lin Zhifeng。
