Chen Wanfang
After lunch, the old man loaded the planted vegetables on the car, beckoned the old woman and Mo Li, and the three of them pushed the cart all the way to Gaoyou City. Along the way, the three of them talked and laughed, and before they knew it, they came to the gate of Gaoyou City. After arriving outside the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city gate refused to let go, only that there was a big family surnamed Wu in the city, and he lost a large amount of money the night before, and now the whole city is in an uproar, so this Gaoyou City is now not allowed to enter, nor is it allowed to go out.
Seeing this, Mo Li said to the guards: "Since it is a thief, it is good not to let it out, why don't you let people in?
Where would the guards talk to Mo Li about those reasons, and when they saw that the people who came were only two old men and a young man, they thought that they were a family of three, and when they saw him pushing a cart of vegetables, they concluded that the people who came were from the surrounding farmers and wanted to enter the city to sell vegetables. Although the "soldiers, peasants, industrialists, and merchants" and peasants were ranked second, the guards were also officials and could barely be regarded as "scholars." Naturally, they looked down on these peasants, and their eyes turned upwards and said, "Who are you?" I see that you are acting strangely, and eighty percent are accomplices with the thief, and today you will be taken down and convicted and imprisoned. ”。
Seeing this, before the guard drew his sword, before Mo Li made a move, a dodge came to the guard, handed over a piece of broken silver, and said to the guard: "I am waiting to enter the city this time, one is to sell vegetables and ask for a livelihood, and the other is to visit relatives and friends, and see my sister-in-law and her daughter who has not yet left the cabinet." As he spoke, he glanced at Mo Li with an ambiguous look in his eyes.
The guard let go of the hand holding the handle of the knife, and said loudly with a smile: "Misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, it turned out to be a relative of the Wu family." Even if you are a child of the Wu family, it is impossible for your own family to steal from your own family. As he spoke, he instructed the other guards, "Open the gate and let you go." "Obviously, this man is still a leader-level figure.
When the other guards heard this, they knew it as they pleased, but they didn't say anything, but moved the wooden fence sandbags that blocked the road according to the order, and let Mo leave the group and enter the city.
After entering the city, the three of them walked all the way to a slightly remote mansion. The old man buckled the vermilion door and said, "Li Yan and his wife Li Chen and nephew Mo left to come to see the ceremony, please let me know." ”
After a while, a housekeeper-like person opened the door of the house, hurriedly led the three of them into the inner courtyard, and then said, "Madame has instructed that if Li Chen's family comes, there is no need to report it, and it will be introduced directly." ”
This is a two-entry house, and after the old man handed over a cart of vegetables to a servant, he followed the housekeeper to the living room. At this time, Chen Fang, who had been notified by someone, was waiting for the three of them in the living room early.
Seeing the three of them coming, Chen Fang bowed slightly and said, "Chen Fang has seen her brother-in-law." Then he hurriedly stepped forward to greet Chen Fen, held the old woman's hand and said, "Eldest sister, why are you back? Why didn't you tell me earlier? I also let the next person prepare some wine and food to entertain you well." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Mo Li and asked, "I don't know if this son is ......?"
Before Mo Li could answer, Chen Fen preemptively said, "Your brother-in-law and I are here for him this time." Xiaofang, what do you think of this future life?"
"It's handsome, but I don't know what my sister means?" Chen Fang replied with a smile.
"This son has a good character and good looks, I want to tell him that Yuan'er is a husband in your family, I don't know what you think, Xiaofang?"
"This son was born well, but this marriage should have been ordered by his parents and the words of the matchmaker. I don't know such a big thing, why don't I see the elders of his clan coming?" Chen Fang wondered.
Chen Fen replied: "In this later life, he went to the Broken Soul Mountain with the elders of the clan to hunt, and the elders of the clan were all killed by a black bear spirit, and he was the only one who survived with his superb martial arts. Since Xiaofang wants the elders to come here, then I will accept this son as a nominal son today, and he can be regarded as an elder in the clan. He turned his head to look at Mo Li and said, "Since there are no elders in your family, I will take you as a righteous son, are you willing?"
Mo Li replied: "To be able to become Madame's righteous son, I am naturally willing, but I ......."
"Auntie, are you here to see Yuan'er? Did you bring anything delicious for Yuan'er? A twelve or thirteen-year-old girl jumped into the front hall from the inner courtyard, and before anyone arrived, a voice came in, interrupting Mo Li's words.
Mo Li was stunned when he saw the person coming. The person who came didn't want to be as otherworldly as the fairy in the painting.,But it's smart.,Plus the age of twelve or thirteen.,It's the age when Lori first grows up.。 Mo Li was not a Lolita, but the moment he saw this woman, it was like a string in his heart was plucked, and he couldn't stop beating wildly.
Seeing Mo Li, the girl was also stunned, and then her face turned red directly to the base of her neck, turned around, and stopped talking.
Seeing this scene, Li Yan and the three of them looked at each other and smiled, and Chen Fang took the lead in speaking: "Yuan'er, I still have something to say with your aunt and uncle, so you can take this Mo Gongzi to the inner courtyard to play." ”
The girl responded with a "yes" in a mosquito voice, then walked to Mo Li's side, bowed and said, "Wan Fang has seen Mo Gongzi, Mo Gongzi, please come with me." ”
As the girl came to a pavilion in the inner courtyard, the two sat opposite each other, not knowing what to say for a while, and the scene was very embarrassing for a while.
It wasn't Mo Li who broke the deadlock, it was the girl. After being silent for a long time, the girl took the lead in speaking: "I don't know where the son's home is, can there be a wife and a child at home?"
Mo Li said sadly: "The elders of the clan were killed by a black bear in the mountains before, leaving me alone to survive, and I previously recognized your aunt as my stepmother, and the two of them are my only relatives." ”
Xu is Moli's experience aroused the girl's sympathy, and the girl said: "There are days in the dark, and I ask Mo Gongzi to mourn." ”
Mo Li smiled slightly, indicating that he was fine, and then asked: "Miss Wanfang doesn't have to be like this, I have already seen it in the next place, I just hope they can live well in heaven." ”
As if to divert the topic, and as if to show her talent, the girl said: "I don't know what Mo Gongzi is proficient in literary and martial arts? Wan Fang learned martial arts with his father Xing Cheng since he was a child, and learned the six arts with his mother after the age of seven. At this time, if you have nothing to do, why don't you and I have a discussion?"
Mo Li arched his hand and said: "It turns out that the girl's surname is Xing, which is really disrespectful and disrespectful." I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and my martial arts are acceptable, but this martial arts is rude, and I am afraid that it will hurt the girl. I still know a little bit about this qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and I can communicate with the girl. ”
The girl said: "Wan Fang was originally surnamed Xing, but when she was young, her father disappeared after going to Shanhaiguan with the army, and her mother was afraid that she would be sad, so she asked the slave family to change her mother's surname, so her name was Chen Yuan, and the word Wan Fang." It made Childe smile. ”
Hearing the girl's words, Mo Li's brain suddenly shut down, and he was directly stunned, "Chen Wanfang, Chen Yuan? Isn't this Chen Yuanyuan, one of Qin Huai's eight Yans? I took the lead and robbed Wu Sangui's wife!"
"Mo Gongzi, Mo Gongzi!" Chen Yuanyuan saw that Mo Li was stunned, so he called Mo Li twice.
"Oh. Seeing that Miss Wanfang was born so beautiful and moving, she lost her temper for a while, and I hope that the girl will not blame her. Mo Li hurriedly said.
Hearing Mo Li say this, Chen Yuanyuan's face turned red again, and he said angrily: "Flammy tongue!" just said this, but his heart was happy.
"Don't hide it from Miss Wanfang, my father-in-law and mother-in-law are here this time to propose marriage to your mother. If the girl doesn't like it, she can tell her bluntly, and she will push the matter down. ”
After listening to Mo Li's words, Chen Yuanyuan hurriedly said: "Being able to marry Gongzi, Wan Fang is happy in her heart. The son may not know something, and the slave family has known since she was a child that women who have not left the cabinet are not allowed to see people. Now when I see my son, I have recognized my son, and I will not marry if I am not a son in this life. If the son dislikes the slave family, then the slave family will not marry in this life. ”
"Wan Fang was born so beautifully, how could she dislike it, it's just ......" Mo Li stopped talking.
"Just how?" Seeing that Mo Li was halfway through speaking, Chen Yuanyuan hurriedly asked.
"It's just that I have no relatives and no family wealth, if Miss Wanfang marries me, I'm afraid I will wronged Miss Wanfang. ”
As if he was afraid that Mo Li would not marry her, Chen Yuanyuan hurriedly said: "As the saying goes, 'marry a chicken with a chicken, marry a dog with a dog'." The words are a little rougher, but that's the truth. After you and I get married, we can give birth to more than a dozen sons, and after 20 years, we can be regarded as having a family. As for the money, if the son is willing to work hard, the slave family believes that the son will become a wealthy gentleman. Afraid of hurting Mo Li's self-esteem, the empathetic Chen Yuanyuan said tactfully: "If the son is indifferent to fame and fortune by nature, and the mother is only my daughter, and there are no other heirs, after getting married, this mansion and the family's property will be the son's, as long as we save some, we don't have to worry about food and clothing for a lifetime." ”
"Thanks to Miss Wan Fang's refusal to give up, then I have to be respectful and obey my fate. ”
