Chapter 44 Door-to-door proposal

The night is like water, and the silver moon hangs high.

Back at the Lu Mansion, Lu Zhi waved his hand and called Liu Zhan to him, and said, "Zhan'er, you don't have to worry about your marriage with the Cai family, everything will be handled by the old man." As for you, go back to the mountain gate tomorrow, report the matter to your master truthfully, and listen to his opinion. ”

Liu Zhan bowed: "Shibo has thought it through, my nephew has written it down, and I will go back tomorrow and show it to my master." ”

"Well, let's go back to the house and get some rest." After Lu Zhi finished speaking, he turned around and ran to the study. Lu Zhi is a man of both humanities and martial arts, likes to read, and must read the classics every night before going to bed, and will not go to bed until three o'clock in the morning.

Liu Zhan came to his room and saw Diao Chan already waiting in front of the bed.

Diao Chan saw Liu Zhan coming back, so he quickly got up and served Liu Zhan to sit next to the desk, poured a cup of hot tea for Liu Zhan, and then meekly came behind Liu Zhan, kneaded Liu Zhan's shoulder, and said softly: "Lang went out to work for a day, tired, let the slave give Lang a good massage." ”

Liu Zhan picked up the teacup, took a sip of hot tea, slowly closed his eyes, and enjoyed the warmth of the beauty.

After a while, Liu Zhan suddenly grabbed Diao Chan's willow waist and hugged Diao Chan in his arms.

"Ahh......h Hmm......" Diao Chan struggled slightly, and then began to respond gently to Liu Zhan's kiss.

After some lingering, Liu Zhan burned himself, and his body was about to explode, but he couldn't really put it into action, so he had to rush to the courtyard and play a fist and kick.

After calming down a little, Liu Zhan returned to the room in a sneer, looking at the beautiful and delicate Diao Chan in front of the bed, and felt uncomfortable like a cat scratching in his heart.

The world says that it is the most difficult to accept the grace of beauty! At this moment, there is something different about this.

Guarding such a peerless beauty, but having a minor body, this is undoubtedly a huge torture for a dry man like Liu Zhan.

Thinking of this, Liu Zhan exclaimed: I'm too difficult!

What to do?

Be presumptuous, put out the fire first?

No way! The body has not yet grown, which may cause unknowable hidden dangers to the body.

Liu Zhan struggled painfully, as if the soul in his body was divided into two, each holding on to his own words, and arguing.

Liu Zhan was so uncomfortable that grass grew in his heart, and suddenly laughed at himself: I am doing it myself, it seems that I can't let Diao Chan warm my bed in the future, or I won't be able to hold it sooner or later.

As soon as he thought of this, Liu Zhan called Diao Chan to his side and truthfully told Diao Chan what he thought in his heart.

Diao Chan's face was flushed, and she lowered her head and said softly: "The slave understands Lang's affection, and the slave will wait for Lang." ”

Liu Zhan smiled helplessly: "Cicada, this way, you bring a few volumes of the classics in the study, I will read the classics for a while and then sleep, you can go back to your room to rest." ”

"The slave doesn't want to go back to the room, so let's serve Lang here, okay? Wait for Lang to sleep and go back to the room. ”

“…… All right. ”

After a while, Diao Chan took the classics and put them on the desk, then stepped aside, waiting for Liu Zhan's orders.

Liu Zhan looked at Diao Chan, then picked up a book and studied it.

Half an hour later, Liu Zhan became as calm as water, as if he forgot that Diao Chan was still in the room, and stood up to move his muscles and bones by himself.

Diao Chan slowly got up and came to Liu Zhan's side, gently came to Liu Zhan's side, and said softly: "Childe, it's not too early, it's time to rest." ”

Hearing Diao Chan's delicate voice, Liu Zhan was stunned for a moment, then remembered that there was a beauty on his side, looked at Diao Chan gently, and said softly: "Cicada, you go back to the room, I'll sleep in a while." ”

Diao Chan gave a salute, turned around and was about to leave, rushed into Liu Zhan's arms, kissed Liu Zhan lightly on the face, and then slowly walked out of Liu Zhan's room.

What Diao Chan didn't know was that at this time, she was stared at by a pair of eyes in a corner......

In this way, Liu Zhan took the initiative to stop the extremely painful behavior of letting Diao Chan warm his bed, and began to spend all his energy on practicing martial arts and reading.

Early in the morning of the second day, Liu Zhan sent Pei Yuanshao back to Shanqian to train the dozens of brothers in the cottage briefly, and he himself rushed to the mountain gate with Diao Chan.

……

Ten days later.

The wind and the sun are beautiful, and the sky is clear.

The shadows of the trees are swaying, and the fragrance of flowers is pleasant.

The street is full of pedestrians, bustling, and a lively scene. The birds in the air fluttered happily and gathered in a freak of dispersion, sometimes landing on the rooftops and sometimes jumping on the branches, as if to celebrate this festive day.

Under the guidance of the matchmaker, Lu Zhi walked on the street with a spring breeze on his face, wearing a brocade robe and a red satin belt around his waist.

Although Liu Zhan and Cai Yan are privately determined for life, there are many etiquettes in ancient times, and marriage must not be a child's play, so the procedures that should be followed are the same. So, after Lu Zhi returned home, he invited a matchmaker, and the next day he asked the matchmaker to write a letter of appointment to Cai's house, and asked for Cai Yan's birthday, and combined the birthday eight characters for Liu Zhan and Cai Yan in the Lu family ancestral hall. Through this period of getting along, Lu Zhi has already raised Liu Zhan, a child with a tragic fate, as his own child, so he set to give the two of them eight characters in the Lu family ancestral hall.

Liu Zhan and Cai Yan complement each other!

This made Lu Zhi very happy, and asked the matchmaker to go to Cai's mansion to discuss relevant matters with Cai Yong. In the end, it was agreed that the dowry could be given on an auspicious day of the zodiac.

Lu Zhi was followed by a band of blowing and beating, and then a mighty group of ox carts. The ox cart was full of dowry gifts, all wrapped in red cloth. Each cow had a big red flower hanging on its head, and the people who drove the car and the people in the band wore red cloth around their waists.

Pedestrians on the street came to join in the fun, stop to watch, and talk a lot. There are those who are envious, those who are jealous, and those who are inquisitive......

"Isn't this Lord Lu Zhi? Whose house is this going to propose? ”

"Didn't the two sons of Lord Lu Zhi's family die in battle during the peace of the chaos?"

"Yes, but Lord Lu got another son at the beginning of this year, I don't know!"

"Propose at the age of one...... It's really anxious. ”

"These dignitaries are just different from us, I am in my thirties and haven't married my mother-in-law yet!"

……

Because today's weather is particularly good, it is more suitable for going out to play, Wei Zhongdao also came to the street to wander, followed by Xiao Zhou Yu. After the banquet that day, Wei Zhongdao honestly returned to the inn to recuperate, took the medicine on time according to the prescription, and stayed in bed for three days before recovering as before.

After recovering, Wei Zhongdao thought of Liu Zhan again, thinking that if he stayed in Luoyang for a while, maybe he would meet Liu Zhan again one day, and he must teach a good lesson to Liu Zhan and let out this evil breath.

After spending a few days doing nothing, Wei Zhongdao couldn't stay any longer, so he thought about asking Zhou Zhou Yu to go out for a walk and pass the boring time. As soon as he thought so, Zhou Yu came to see him this day, and the two of them really had a good heart.

Wei Zhongdao and Zhou Yu slowly walked through the flow of people, and suddenly heard the sound of gongs and drums, and then saw the flow of people rushing to the other end of the street.

Standing in the crowd, Wei Zhongdao heard the people next to him saying something about "the son of the Lu Zhi family" and "proposing" or something, and he couldn't help but be a little more interested, he thought that after the autumn, his father would also come to Caifu for him to propose marriage.

Wei Zhongdao pushed aside the crowd and squeezed in front, and saw Lu Zhi walking in front of the team with joy, constantly saluting the crowd watching on both sides, and reciting words in his mouth: "Neighbors, friends, all passing by are full of joy, aha-come, share the happy fruit." After speaking, he waved his hand at a middle-aged man in the housekeeper style behind him.

The middle-aged butler summoned two sturdy young men and asked them to sprinkle happy fruits into the crowd. The so-called happy fruit is some small pastries, and then wrapped in red cloth to show festivity.

People shouted congratulations one after another, and they were noisy and surrounded by Lu Zhi and his party and slowly walked towards Cai's mansion.

After a long while, Lu Zhi led the team to the gate of Cai's mansion.

Wei Zhongdao followed all the way, and the more he followed him, the more he beat the drum in his heart: Why is the direction of Lord Lu coming from Lord Cai's family, is it ...... No, it won't! The son of the Lu Zhi family was born at the beginning of the year, how could he propose to Lord Cai's family, there is too much difference in age......

Wei Zhongdao followed while comforting himself, and when he saw the crowd stopping, he raised his eyes and looked around, only to see the two big characters "Cai Fu" come into view.

This...... How could it be!

Wei Zhongdao looked at the gate of Cai's Mansion attentively, couldn't believe his eyes, and was stunned, only to see the matchmaker dressed in festive clothes come forward and knock on the door, and said loudly: "Lord Lu comes to the door to propose, please open the door of Caifu to welcome guests." ”

As soon as the matchmaker's voice fell, the two guards opened the door and let the proposed team inside.

When Wei Zhongdao saw that the team of relatives had entered the gate of Cai's mansion, he was completely stupid and panicked, because Cai Yong had only one daughter, that was Cai Yan, no matter whether Wei Zhongdao wanted to make sense or not, Lu Zhi's proposal to Cai's mansion was an ironclad matter.

Zhou Yu saw that Wei Zhongdao looked nervous and flustered, and comforted: "Brother Dao, before you figure out what's going on, don't mess up the square inch first." ”

Wei Zhongdao smiled helplessly: "Brother Yu, this is the lice on the bald man's head, it is clear at a glance." There is only one young lady in Lord Cai's family, is there any suspense in this? ”

Zhou Yu's immature face was full of doubts, and he said slowly; However, Lord Lu Zhi's son-in-law is not yet a year old, and he and Miss Cai ...... How is that possible? ”

"The impossible has become a reality, seeing is believing."

Seeing is believing, and it doesn't have to be the truth.

Zhou Yu listened to Wei Zhongdao's words, and became more and more puzzled: "This ...... Yu really couldn't figure out why Lord Lu suddenly came out like this. ”

"That's it, let people stay and investigate for a while, let's go, let's go back first, it's very upset to stay here." After Wei Zhongdao finished speaking, he beckoned and whispered to a guard beside him, and then led Zhou Yu out of the crowd and back to the inn.

The guard was very clever, greeting the people around him warmly from time to time in the crowd, and bobbing through the crowd...... However, he was busy for a long time and inquired about the content, and he actually knew as much as he knew.

The guards had no choice but to stand at the gate of Cai's Mansion like other onlookers who were doing good things, waiting for Lu Zhi and the others to come out and then make plans.
