Volume 2 Chapter 21 The mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law
Li Twelve took the silver and left excitedly, but Yang Cong sat there with his brows locked, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
Someone robbed his fiancΓ©e with him, and anyone who heard this news would not be happy, but fortunately, according to Li Twelve's understanding, the Lu family didn't seem to have much interest in this family matter, at least, until now, it has been more than a year, and the Lu family has not agreed to Xianning Hou Qiuluan's son coming to Lu Mansion to go on a blind date with Lu Ling'er.
Yang Cong also learned about the situation of the Xianning Marquis Mansion with Li Twelve, and this Xianning Marquis was not Yongle Xungui or Hongwu Xungui, but was canonized by the Zhengde Dynasty, that is to say, there was no huge force behind it.
However, this Xianning Marquis Qiuluan is quite good at drilling, and his desire to marry the Lu family is a clear proof, not only that, but he also found himself a position as the chief soldier of Ganzhou Town, the capital of Shaanxi.
At this time, there are not many nobles who have real power and heavy troops, and generally the nobles are suspended in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, nominally in charge of the guards, but in fact, not a single soldier can be transferred.
A noble man with no background can be so popular, such an opponent is really a bit of a headache.
He was frowning and pondering there, when the guards suddenly came to report that someone from Nie Bao's Nie Mansion.
Yang Cong thought that Nie Bao was just sending someone to encourage him, but he didn't expect that Nie Bao's reply was to let him go to the house to talk if he had time.
This Nie Bao may want to know about Xu Jie's recent situation, but Yang Cong is in a state of confusion at this moment, how can he be in the mood to talk to Nie Bao about Xu Jie.
Immediately afterwards, Mu Konghui also sent someone to reply, which roughly meant that he should review his homework and strive to get a good score in the exam.
At this time, his mind is in a mess, how can he have the heart to review his homework.
He just wanted to go to the Lu Mansion to ask what Lu Song and his wife meant, but the Lu Mansion didn't send someone to reply for a long time, and his heart was about to become a mess.
The so-called "wait for a long time, and the suspect will be ugly." After a "long" wait, the people from the Lu Mansion finally came, and the reply given by Lu Song and his wife was to ask him to go to the mansion tomorrow afternoon, after a quarter of the hour.
What exactly does the Landing Pine couple mean?
Yang Cong suffered in the inn for a day, and the next afternoon, when the hour came, he set off with a few guards, and in less than a quarter of an hour, he came to the gate of the Lu Mansion.
After a burst of rumors from the porter, an old man in charge of the affairs ran out and eagerly led him to the mansion.
This Lu family really won the emperor's favor, their mansion was even bigger than the Sincerity Mansion, and the decoration inside was quite luxurious, I don't know how many times better than the Sincerity Mansion.
Yang Cong followed the old man in charge and turned left and right, and turned for more than a quarter of an hour before coming to the inner house of the Lu Mansion.
At this time, a middle-aged couple was already sitting in the lobby waiting for each other.
No need to ask, these two must be Lu Song and his wife, Yang Cong stepped forward directly and said: "Junior Yang Cong, I have seen Lord Lu, Mrs. Lu." β
Lu Song stared at him up and down with a serious face, and did not speak, but the Li family next to him said with a smile: "Oh, you are Qingfeng, you are really handsome, sit down, sit down, come here, serve tea." β
Is this handsome used to describe a man?
Yang Cong was stunned for a moment, then thanked him again, and then slowly sat down in the guest seat.
Lu Song didn't speak, but Li was very interested in him, as soon as he sat down, Li asked with interest: "Listen to Ling'er, your family is a famous rich merchant in Quanzhou Mansion, and you are very rich, how much money does your family have?" β
Faint to death, this!
As soon as Li said this, Lu Song's face was full of black lines, and Yang Cong was almost stunned on the spot.
That's too straightforward, isn't it?
How can this Li speak the same as Lu Ling'er, the sky is real!
How to say it, this question is really a bit unexpected by Yang Cong.
He thought for a moment, and then said embarrassedly: "It's not very clear how many juniors there are, because my family's property has always been taken care of by my grandfather and my father, and I estimate that there should still be a million taels of silver." β
"Wow, so rich, it seems that Xi'er can't even come up with so much silver." When Li heard this, he danced excitedly, and seemed to almost jump up from the chair.
Seeing this, Lu Song couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Madam, how many times have I told you, don't call you Xi'er in front of outsiders, but call yourself the emperor." β
Li pouted and said: "Qingfeng is not an outsider, by the way, Qingfeng, I heard that you have been selected in the township examination last month, how about it, are you sure of the title of the gold list this time?" β
Yang Cong understood at this time, Lu Ling'er must have inherited the genes of the Li family, this mother and daughter not only look alike, but also have similar personalities, and they speak like they lack heart, and they don't use their brains much.
This mother-in-law is very coaxing, Yang Cong said "honestly": "When I was in Jinling, the deputy examiner Zou once told the juniors that the juniors' results, not to mention the top three in the first class, should be no problem in the second class." β
When Li Shi heard this, he couldn't help but say excitedly: "Great, doesn't that mean that you will be able to marry Ling'er in April next year." β
When Lu Song heard this, he fainted at the wrong point.
Yang Cong took the opportunity to say: "Thank you aunt for your success." β
When Li Shi heard this, he actually covered his mouth and chuckled: "You're welcome, you're welcome." β
Seeing this, Lu Song couldn't help but raise his hand to touch his forehead, this mother-in-law is really a headache!
I just met, and I gave my daughter's marriage after just a few words, is it so hasty?
However, he didn't dare to say anything to stop it, it was not him who was in charge of this family, but the Li family, and he also knew that if it weren't for the relationship between the Li family and the emperor, he wouldn't be able to sit in the position of the commander of the brocade guards.
Alas, forget it, this kid looks okay, there is the emperor in town, it is estimated that this kid will not dare to be naughty, this marriage, so be it.
He simply hid his face with his hands, sat there silently, and became a listener.
The so-called "mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at it, the more she likes it." This Yang Cong is so handsome, his family is rich, and he is also talented and polite, the key Ling'er is quite compatible with him, where can I find such a son-in-law!
Li stared at Yang Cong with a smile for a while, and suddenly asked again: "By the way, I heard that Xiuxiu's girl is also married, what is the name of that young man?" β
Yang Cong hurriedly introduced: "His name is Yu Dayou, the word Zhifu, originally Yongning Wei hereditary hundred households, and now Yongning Wei Chongwu Thousand Households. β
Li nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, Zhifu, I heard that he is going to participate in the martial arts examination this time, did he come to the capital with you?" β
Yang Cong obediently replied: "Here, here, this time he also participated in the Jinling Township test with his juniors, and he also won the lift." β
When Li heard this, he said excitedly: "Oh, it's so powerful, you can bring him over and show me if you have time." β
