Chapter 40: Sincerely
That night, Pei Min called Wang Zhongsi out to speak.
It is not far from the pavilion of the annex where Wang Zhongsi and the Queen Mother lived.
The evening breeze is blowing, and the winter night is particularly quiet, and a few cold plums come through the wall, which has a different taste.
"Brother Min!" For Pei Min, who is like a brother and a father, Wang Zhongsi respected as always, called out respectfully, and stood aside.
"Sit down and talk, you and my brother, what's polite!" Pei Min sat down casually and said with a bit of a joke: "It's really fast, it's only been a few days." Are you planning a flash wedding? The idea is very good, and I chose a girl from the Western Regions who doesn't pay attention to our oriental etiquette! ”
Wang Zhongsi said with a smile: "I told Brother Min earlier, my brother doesn't need Brother Min to work hard in this regard, and he can solve it by himself......"
Pei Min was stunned when he heard it, in his memory, Wang Zhongsi really said such a thing, and at that time he seemed to be ridiculed, and smiled wordlessly: "I don't know where you learned this skill, you don't know how to teach yourself?" Anyway, I don't remember teaching you that...... I have to warn you, though. Marriage is a lifelong thing, and you can't harm other girls. ”
In the 21st century, it was a mutual harm, but in ancient times, it was a scourge of the side.
Women suffer the most in this regard.
The Tang Dynasty was even better, and you could remarry, but generally speaking, retiring the wife of the husband's family and expelling the family from the house would mean that the three subordinates and four virtues were missing, which made people look down on them.
Very few people are willing to marry such a woman, and it will be a disaster for her life.
Wang Zhonghe's character has been getting along all these years, how can Pei Min not know the truth.
He is steady, wise and brave, responsible and courageous, only fifteen this year, and already has the potential to be an excellent general.
Pei Min himself did not hide his clumsiness, not only taught him Xue Rengui's art of war, but also handed over Su Dingfang's art of war to him. If it weren't for Wang Zhonghe's personality that was not suitable for Li Jing and Pei Xingjian's military studies, and he was worried that he would be greedy and chewy, he wouldn't mind passing on the military books of the two to him.
Perhaps Wang Zhongsi inherited the brave bloodline of his father Wang Haibin, Wang Zhongsi was very eager to go to the battlefield, eager to become a great hero admired by everyone like his father.
This kind of character is not much different from what is recorded in history, and the same is true of Wang Zhonghei in history. When he was not yet officially famous, he often led a light horse out of the fortress, leading more than 100 brothers to carry the lone Turks to rush and kill, just like beating grass and valleys, so that the Turks did not dare to graze in comfort.
This kind of brave fighting character, Pei Min still admires it very much.
But Wang's request is not excessive.
As a mother, the Wang family has only one relative, Wang Zhonghe. She didn't mean to restrain Wang Zhonghei, she just wanted to leave a queen for the Wang family, that's all. Even if there is really an accident, there is one more thought of living.
Pei Min faced this little request from a mother, and couldn't think of the slightest reason to refuse.
Wang Zhongsi found one for himself in an instant, Pei Min was really worried that he was just going to the battlefield, so he casually found a girl to meet the queen mother's wishes.
If that's the case, it's so unfair to that girl.
As an elder brother, Pei Min can't help but pay attention to it.
Wang Zhongsi nodded and said, "Brother Min meant, brother understands." I told Brother Min directly, that day, my mother and Brother Min both told me about staying for the Wang family, and my brother's first reaction was indeed to find a virtuous lady as soon as possible to meet my mother's wishes. Whether you like it or not, whether you like it or not, it doesn't matter much. As long as the other party is as virtuous as Jiao Chen's sister-in-law, can take care of his mother, husband and children, and let his brother fight outside without worry, he is satisfied. ”
Pei Min frowned, he was worried that Wang Zhongji would take the wrong path in order to go to the battlefield as soon as possible.
When Wang Zhongsi said this, he said with a little embarrassment: "This matter of fate is also coincidental. Wu Qi'er is the original owner of Brother Min who gave me Yi'en, when the horse thieves stole the foal to Chang'an to sell, and finally passed through the hands of Brother Min and fell into the hands of his brother. The conflict with the prince of Mi is also due to this. At that time, Wu Qi'er gave her brother a deep impression, and she could see the meaning of Yi'en to her. Later, I also heard her say that it was her most important person, a gift to her before she died. If it weren't for the fact that Yien was sent by Brother Min, it would have an extraordinary meaning to me. In addition, he has also cultivated a deep friendship with Yien over the years, and the younger brother really has the intention of returning Yien to her. ”
Pei Min smiled: "It's really a bit of pity." ”
Wang Zhongsi smiled honestly: "These days, my brother is thinking about where to find a virtuous lady, and when I meet Wu Qi'er again today, I am not afraid of Brother Min's jokes, and I have an inexplicable impulse in my heart, how good it would be if I could marry her." After some conversation, this thought became more and more vigorous, and it was made clear to her. Brother Min doesn't have to worry about me, my brother doesn't know what love is, but his heart to marry Wu Qi'er is sincere, and he won't wronged her! Speaking of this, he felt a big headache and said: "It's just that I originally planned to find a virtuous person, but now I don't know if an eldest lady like Wu Qi'er can take care of my mother......
Pei Min listened to Wang Zhonghe's sincere words, and was also relieved, and said with a smile: "Your mother is my mother, can you still treat her badly if you live in Pei Mansion?" As long as you like it, then this marriage is decided...... You've made a private decision for life, but you're a little childish. It happens to be tomorrow's Yuan Festival, and it's okay during the day. I will prepare a generous gift to go to the Siyi Pavilion to personally visit Wu Qi'er's father and ask you to propose marriage to him. I am sure that her father will sell me a few thin noodles and promise you a good deed. ”
Wang Zhongsi said with a little excitement: "That's great, thank you Brother Min." ”
Pei Min also saw that Wang Zhongsi was indeed moved by other girls, not just to stay behind, and said with a smile: "Be polite to me, your business is my business." It's not early, you go to sleep first, have a good rest, and you may not be able to sleep at the big carnival tomorrow night! ”
After saying goodbye to Wang Zhonghei, Pei Min also returned to his bedroom.
On the small bed on the side, Xiao Qi Xiaoba had already slept peacefully.
"How?" Jiao Chen smiled: "It's because you are too careful, I don't think the loyal heir is the kind of person who is not kind." ”
"Madame is wise!" Pei Min hugged Jiao Chen's waist and said, "Mrs. really said it, the loyal heir really fell in love with others." The husband didn't think much about it, if he didn't have this Wu Qi'er, the loyal heir might really find someone to marry casually. ”
Jiao Chen said: "If he really comes like this, he won't be able to pass Lang Jun's level." ”
"That's nature! The eldest brother is like a father! I don't worry about his affairs, who will worry about it? Pei Min touched his chin and muttered: "It's just that this matter is over, but there is an inexplicable feeling in my heart that I will compare to him...... Only fifteen years old, this method should not be too clever. Thinking about Gongsun You, who stood up for him at the banquet, he also knew that it was time to deal with the relationship between them.
