Chapter 0017 - Snatching Relatives
Cai's inner house.
"Father, my daughter will never marry into the Hedong Wei family."
Cai Yan trembled, it was the first time she had spoken so loudly to her father, but for the sake of her future, she had to resist.
Just this morning, Hedong Wei's family came to propose marriage, Cai Yong was already ready to get married, and he came to Cai Yan just to inform him in advance.
When Cai Yong was exiled, Shuo Fang had received the favor of the Wei family, and the two families had mentioned this matter at that time, and now that the Wei family has come to the door, he has no reason to refuse at all.
What's more, the Wei family is a family in Hedong, and the descendants of General Wei Qing and Empress Wei Zifu are now in decline, but because their predecessors are too corrupt, they are still deeply rooted in Hedong and cannot be underestimated.
In Cai Yong's opinion, marrying his daughter to the Wei family is also a good destination, but he never expected his daughter's reaction to be so fierce.
So, he explained bitterly: "Wen Ji, Wei Zhongdao is a talented young man, filial piety and reasonableness, you will never be wronged if you marry......"
"I don't listen, I don't listen...... I will never marry that Wei Zhongdao, let him marry someone else's daughter! ”
"Nonsense!"
Cai Yong stopped, in fact, he really wanted to find a good home for Cai Yan, after all, he was just such a baby daughter, but he never expected that Wei Zhongdao was a short-lived ghost, which caused Cai Yan to be displaced all his life.
"Next year you will be an adult, and it's time to get married, and since ancient times, you have always paid attention to the life of your parents......"
Cai Yan bit her lip and said stubbornly: "I don't want to listen, and I don't want to marry!" ”
"Hmph, you can't help this matter, my father has already agreed to this family business, do you want to regret it?"
Cai Yong's words were interrupted again and he was angry, where could other people's daughters be like this, which one didn't obediently obey their parents' arrangements? If this gets out, what will others think? The daughter of the Cai family has no tutor, and his generation of Confucians has a false reputation? Then what kind of face does he have to go out to meet people?
Thinking of this, Cai Yong added another sentence: "You have to marry if you marry, and you have to marry if you don't marry!" ”
But he never expected that Cai Yan grabbed the paper cutter on the desk and put it across his neck and said, "Then I will die!" ”
"Wen Ji can't!"
Cai Yong exclaimed in surprise and was about to step forward to grab the knife, but Cai Yan hurriedly took a few steps back and said resolutely: "Father, if you insist on marrying your daughter to the Wei family, then I will die here!" ”
Just when the two were at a stalemate, Cai He, the housekeeper of Cai's house, hurriedly came to report: "Master, Gongzi Chen is here, saying that he wants to propose marriage to the master!" ”
When the paper cutter in Cai Yan's hand fell to the ground, and then ran out of the room with tears in his eyes, Chen Gongzi really didn't deceive her, but his father had already promised the Hedong Wei family, can they still be together?
The front yard hall of Cai's house.
At this time, Chen Tianyang had just sat down when he saw Cai Yan running over with tears in his eyes, throwing himself into his arms like a milk swallow returning to the nest.
Of course he knew what was going on......
Originally, he had just gotten the official documents and was going back to the inn, but on the way, he heard that the Hedong Wei family had gone to Caifu to propose marriage, so he directly changed his route to Caifu.
Cai Yan stared at Chen Tianyang, and said with teary eyes: "Son, my father wants to marry me to the Hedong Wei family!" ”
"Don't worry, no one can snatch Wen Ji away from me."
Chen Tianyang smiled, gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said, "Wen Ji, you have to believe me!" ”
"Well, Wen Ji believes in Childe."
Cai Yan's whole body shrunk in Chen Tianyang's arms, this feeling is what she wants.
When Cai Yong rushed to the hall with the housekeeper Cai He, he happened to see the picture of the two hugging each other tightly, and he was completely blindfolded, what is the situation?
When did Cai Yan and Chen Tianyang have already developed this step, and he, the father, didn't know anything about it, so he was furious on the spot.
"You, you two are shameless!"
Chen Tianyang patted Cai Yan, who was a little nervous in his arms, and said very calmly: "Lord Cai, I am in love with Wen Ji...... Today is the door-to-door proposal, please Lord Cai to fulfill! ”
"Hahaha......"
Cai Yong laughed wildly and said angrily: "Chen Xuan, why are you, why do you want the old man to fulfill you, huh?" ”
Of course, Chen Tianyang understands what Cai Yong means, his Chen family can be regarded as a big family in modern times, and the marriage of the children of the big family is all about the right family, even after more than a thousand years, he has not completely got rid of this shackle.
Although he has never disdained his identity, but he has grown so big, it is the first time that he has been disliked and born badly, if this is known by his old man, I don't know what his expression will be?
"Lord Cai, my name Chen Xuan will definitely be famous all over the world, and naturally I will not lose your reputation, let alone Wen Ji's wrong love......"
"Hmph, I dare to come to the door empty-handed to propose marriage, it's the first time I've seen it."
I don't know when, another middle-aged man appeared in the hall, he stared at Chen Tianyang coldly, and anyone could see the anger in his eyes.
Wei Qi reported to his home, Chen Tianyang immediately understood that this middle-aged man was Wei Zhongdao's eldest brother, he glanced at the other party coldly, and smiled indifferently: "How do you know that I am empty-handed?" ”
As he spoke, Chen Tianyang put his hand into his arms, and when he stretched it out again, he had a few more gold bars, and repeated this more than a dozen times, until the pile of cases next to him was no longer there.
"Lord Cai, there are 10,000 gold here, I don't know how about the Wei family?"
Before Cai Yong could speak, Wei Qi couldn't help but ask, "How can you hide so much gold on your body?" ”
"Do I need to sue you?"
One sentence choked Wei Qi back, Chen Tianyang hugged Cai Yong with his fists, and said: "Lord Cai, today's kid is in a hurry, this 10,000 gold is entitled to be used as a meeting gift, and tomorrow the kid will definitely prepare a dowry gift and send it to the house!" ”
"Chen Xuan, who do you think of the old man?"
Cai Yong's face turned blue and white for a while, and he said angrily: "Do you think the old man is selling his daughter?" ”
"Mr. Cai is a generation of Confucianism, you are a lowly businessman, how can you be worthy of Miss Wen Ji?" Wei Qi finally interjected again.
"Why do you look down on Shangjia, I can feed tens of thousands of refugees around Luoyang, can you defend your family?"
Chen Tianyang was also a little angry, and said coldly: "Besides, did you say that I was empty-handed, and I just took some dowry, did it scare you?" ”
"I, I ......"
Wei Qi snorted twice, and said stiffly: "After my Wei family is General Wei Qing, how can it be compared to a shoddy merchant family like you?" ”
"The heroes don't mention the courage of the year, you actually moved out all the ancestors, I'm really not ashamed!" Chen Tianyang was also drunk.
"Have you two had enough of arguing?"
Watching the two arguing, Cai Yong, who had a gloomy face, was very irritable.
The hall finally quieted down, Chen Tian gave Cai Yan a reassuring look, and then clenched his fists and said, "Lord Cai, since Wei Qi and I are both here to propose marriage, why don't you let me solve it with him?" ”
Cai Yong glanced at Cai Yan, and finally sighed and responded.
"As long as you can convince Boru to give up, I will allow this marriage!"
