Chapter 14 Proposals
"Brother, brother, sister-in-law, what does it look like, is it pretty. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Yaya blinked her cute big eyes, her eyes full of anticipation.
"Yes, yes, I'll tell you about the grandson." The mother also echoed on the side, with a look of excitement. My father was also looking forward to it. At this time, it is not the afterlife, it is normal to get married in their twenties, and even some people do not get married until they are in their thirties. In this era, it is common to marry at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and in the case of women, it is two years earlier. Dongfang is only in his early twenties and single, and he is already an older leftover man.
However, Dongfang Wei has never seen that Dongfang Linglong, how do you know how the family is doing, but from the mouth of the old man Gongsun Yan, I know that this Gongsun Linglong is a talented woman with amazing knowledge, and she is the leader and façade of a contemporary famous family.
Dongfang Wei hadn't seen it, so he had to call Gongsun Yan to deal with his parents. Gongsun Yan was blowing in front of his parents, and praised Gongsun Linglong for being out of the sky.
Dongfang Wei had long been tired of listening to Gongsun Yan's nonsense, and didn't want to listen to it anymore, so he thought of going out with Yaya in his arms, but obviously Yaya preferred to know about her future sister-in-law, so she cruelly refused her brother.
The only person in the East walked out, refusing to be followed by the guards. Mengfu is not far away, he wants to go over to visit Meng Tian, ask him to learn about the news of the Mo family, so that he can get a book of the Mo family's mental method to dissolve the six souls fear curse, you must know that since the Mo family rescued the Xiang family from Meng Tian's hands, Meng Tian has been haunted, so he has always been very concerned about the news of the Mo family.
However, when he arrived in Mengfu, he learned that Meng Tian had gone out two days ago, saying that he was going to exterminate the rebellion of the empire.
According to the direction in which Meng Tian went, it should be to go to the area of the former Chu State or Wu State, where the remnants of the Six Kingdoms were more active. The ruling center of the empire is in Guanzhong and the Central Plains, and there are very few people who dare to rebel here.
In the undeveloped land in the south, there are 500,000 troops of Zhao Tuo guarding it, and no one provokes it.
Dongfang Wei returned home and saw that Gongsun Yan was still blowing nonsense. As soon as the mother saw Dongfang Wei coming back, her eyes lit up and she stood up: "Son, you are back, I have discussed it with Mr. Gongsun, and in a few days, your father will go with Mr. Gongsun to propose marriage." You have to go over too, let me tell you, if you don't marry the grandson girl back, the old lady will make you look good! ”
Dongfang Wei was dumbfounded, he didn't know what ecstasy soup the old man poured into the second elder, he was in such a hurry to propose, and since Dongfang Wei became an officer, he has been paying attention to his words and deeds, and he doesn't like to call himself an old lady like before, but he didn't expect to hear it again today.
"Without further ado, pack your bags, change your outfits, and leave tomorrow morning." The smile on my father's face, the folds on his forehead, and the smiling forehead could kill flies.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Dongfang Wei said in shock.
Father glared at Dongfang Wei angrily: "Why don't you worry, you are in your twenties!" Look at Ah Hu, everyone has two sons and a daughter. ”
"Yes, yes, you have the final say." The only face in the East is helpless.
Early the next morning, Dongfang Wei prepared a large carriage of items, which was a gift for the door-to-door proposal, and the dowry would be given when the family affair was really determined, which was the result of the clothes of his father and Gongsun Yan. Originally, according to the parents' meaning, the dowry was brought together, and the province had many long nights and dreams, and the future daughter-in-law ran away with someone.
I really don't know how Gongsun Yan poured ecstasy soup and made his parents desperately want Gongsun Linglong, who had not yet met, to be their daughter-in-law.
There were two carriages, except for the gift car, and the other car was ridden by Gongsun Yan and his father. Gongsun Yan's cultivation has been stabilized at the third-rate level, his body is not as good as before, and his father has been dealing with the fields all his life and cannot ride horses.
In these days, long-distance travel was basically carried out, and wealthy families would choose horse-drawn carriages or horseback riding. After the Gongsun family was a famous Gongsun Long, Gongsun Long was the former guest of the Zhao State Plains Jun, and he was quite respected, so the Gongsun family settled in the homeland of Zhao State.
Dongfang Wei rode a war horse to open the way in front, and the carriage was guarded by more than a dozen cavalry guards. At this time, the straight road built by Daqin had been repaired from Guanzhong to the coast of the East China Sea, and it was not slow along the way. In less than ten days, the foundation entered the hometown of Zhao.
As soon as they entered the territory of Zhao State, the attitude of the people changed significantly. In Qindi, the people looked at the people who knew that they could be proud of the envy of the group, while in the land of Zhao, the people danced and stared at the only pedestrian in the east with resentful eyes.
In the past, Wu Anjun, the general of the Qin State, defeated Zhao Kuo in Changping, captured 400,000 Zhao troops, and killed them. At this point, the people of Zhao hated Bai Qi very much, and even hated the people of Qin.
Dongfang Yi Xinren rode a tall horse, dressed in dark armor, and held a spear, and it was easy to see that he was a soldier from the Qin State. Therefore, in Zhao Di, Dongfang Wei and others are unable to move an inch. Although the Zhao people did not dare to provoke the Qin soldiers, they could ignore the Qin soldiers.
On the way to Zhao Di, no one sold anything to Dongfang Wei and the others, and the tavern inn refused to accept their business. So Dongfang Wei and the others had to stay at the Qin army's post station overnight. It's just that the post station is simple, and Sun Yan, the only prince in the east, is better, and he has been fighting all year round, and the post station is already good. But Dongfang Wei's father couldn't stand it. Since moving to Xianyang a few years ago, I have been living a pampered life, and now I am not used to living in such a humble residence.
Fortunately, it only took a few days to arrive at Gongsun's house. Although the Gongsun family is a leading family of famous families, with a large number of talents and a large number of talents, it is not a huge family. According to Gongsun Yan, there are only about 20 people in the entire Gongsun family.
Twenty or so people seem to be a lot, but in fact, the big families in the feudal period were often hundreds or thousands of people, and even tens of thousands of huge families.
Gongsun's family is in Handan, covering a vast area, which is comparable to the area of an ordinary university in later generations. It stands to reason that there are only about 20 people in the Gongsun family, so they can't use such a big place, but there are not a few disciples under the Gongsun family.
"Knock knock~"
Gongsun Yan took the lead and gently knocked on the bronze ring on the vermilion gate.
The door creaked open a crack, and a boy stuck out his head and looked at Dongfang Wei and the others.
"You are?" The boy looked at Gongsun Yan suspiciously. The old man looked familiar, but he just couldn't remember who it was.
"Tell Gongsun Long to come out to greet him." Gongsun Yan is not polite at all.
Gongsun Long is Gongsun Linglong's father, the contemporary head of the Gongsun family, and the nephew of Gongsun Yan.
The boy looked displeased: "Who are you, how can you call the head of the family by his name." ”
Gongsun Yan's original smile suddenly stiffened when he returned home.
"Go, tell Gongsun Long, and say that there is a man named Gongsun Yan looking for him." Gongsun Yan said angrily.
