Chapter 144: Dowry (Subscription Requested)

The man has tears and doesn't flick, but before he is sad, Hong Chengchou, who is surging with alcohol at this moment, has completely lost control, and the unhappiness in his heart has been infinitely amplified by the alcohol recently.

Drinking to drown his sorrows is a truer portrayal of him at the moment, and his tears are out of control and can no longer stop.

Hong Chengchou thought back to what he had experienced recently, and he didn't know for a while whether to be happy or painful.

Hong Chengchou studied at the Xiyi Museum as a child. Due to his poor family, he dropped out of school at the age of 11 and helped his mother make dried tofu at home.

At that time, Hong Qiyin, a talented son of Xixuan Changfang, ran a village school in Shuigou Pavilion, and Hong Chengchou often listened to lectures outside the school hall in addition to selling dried tofu, and occasionally helped students make pairs. Hong Qiyin found that Hong Chengchou was extremely talented and ambitious, so he accepted Hong Chengchou as an apprentice for free and returned to school.

23-year-old Hong Chengchou went to the province to participate in the township test and was the nineteenth person in the Chinese style of Yimaoke. The following year, he went to Beijing to take the examination, and even Jiedengke, ranked 14th in the second class of the Bingchen Branch Palace, and was given the background of Jinshi.

Hong Chengchou was first appointed as the director of the Jiangxi Qing Officials Department of the Criminal Department, and served in the Criminal Department for six years. Two years later, he was promoted to two Zhejiang and announced the political left senator.

In recent years, he was promoted to the governor of Shaanxi, and then Yang He fell, and he succeeded to the post of governor of the three sides. thought that he had finally survived, but in less than a month, he was dismissed from his official position by the Ming Court.

Everyone in the world knows that it is easy to go from poor to rich, but it is difficult to go from good to poor. Coupled with the fate of being arrogant and arrogant, but life is thinner than paper, Hong Chengchou will cry like a little girl, and there is nothing to make a fuss about.

Mao Wenlong just looked at him quietly, and did not say anything to consol him. Hong Chengchou's original fate would have been like this, but now it will become like this, Mao Wenlong knows that it has a great relationship with his own appearance.

Hong Chengchou would not have been so depressed, but his original trajectory was to surrender to the Qing State, and the name of 'traitor' in the history books of later generations also accompanied him throughout his life.

At this moment, Mao Wenlong not only did not have the slightest sense of guilt, but he felt that he was saving Hong Chengchou. Although Hong Chengchou was disappointed at this moment, Mao Wenlong did not dare to guarantee what kind of glorious achievements Hong Chengchou would have if he followed him?

The only thing that Mao Wenlong can guarantee is only one thing, that is, he will not have to bear that infamy in history in the future. And for this alone, Mao Wenlong felt that it was worth the money.

After some happy indulgence and venting, Hong Chengchou gradually calmed down, and the depression accumulated in his heart seemed to have dissipated in the wind with the tears just now.

Hong Chengchou, who was relaxed as a whole person, seemed to have changed! Just from his expression, you can see that he is very relieved.

"I've made you see the joke!" After Hong Chengchou calmed down, he threw away the remaining wine jar in his hand, turned to look at Mao Wenlong and said lightly.

Mao Wenlong always had a smile on his face, neither ostentatious nor made fun of him, which made people look very warm. He shook his head and said, "People are born to suffer in this world, and how can they see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain." Where does the joke come from! ”

Hong Chengchou felt Mao Wenlong's sincerity, nodded and said, "I didn't see it, you are a martial artist who understands such a big truth." ”

Mao Wenlong didn't like it and retorted: "I have never eaten pork and have always seen pigs running away, so it is not appropriate for you to generalize like this." ”

Hong Chengchou smiled, he knew that he was indeed a little radical just now. At this point, he stopped the topic and stopped discussing it with Mao Wenlong.

He hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said seriously: "What do you think about the little girl Ziyan?" ”

Mao Wenlong seemed to have expected Hong Chengchou to mention this matter, and when he was asked, he was not in a hurry: "Sincerely!" ”

Mao Wenlong, regardless of his expression or tone, was very sincere when he said this! But Hong Chengchou obviously still didn't believe it, and still kept vigilant and said: "Isn't there some other selfishness mixed in?" ”

From the first time he met Mao Wenlong, Hong Chengchou was tempted, and Mao Wenlong intended to recruit him from the beginning. This is also why he has always suspected that Mao Wenlong is good to his daughter, and he wants to use his daughter to achieve his goal of recruiting himself.

Therefore, he was very resistant from the beginning, of course, Mao Wenlong was nothing at that time, and he was still a person who could not see the light. Under such circumstances, Hong Chengchou definitely had no intention of defecting to him.

Mao Wenlong stared at Hong Chengchou for a long time, he also hesitated for a long time at the same time, and finally sighed and said, "To be honest, I did approach Zi Yan with the selfishness you thought at the beginning. ”

After a pause, Mao Wenlong couldn't see that Hong Chengchou showed signs of anger, so he continued with relief: "But later, the closer I got to Zi Yan and the more I got to know her, I began to fall in love with him inextricably. So I don't know how to explain it to you. ”

"Count you boy sincere!" In just one sentence, it has been proved that Hong Chengchou forgave Mao Wenlong.

The latter was immediately overjoyed and asked, "So my uncle agreed to my marriage to Zi Yan?" ”

Iron needs to be struck while it is hot, and it is rare to be able to talk to Hong Chengchou about this, so Mao Wenlong naturally wants to quickly confirm the relationship between him and Zi Yan.

Hong Chengchou smiled, the smile looked ill-intentioned, and he said word by word: "Whether you agree or not depends on your sincerity." ”

"Sincerity ......." Mao Wenlong muttered in a daze.

"Yes, it's sincerity. In the future, not only will you have to take good care of Zi Yan, but the most important thing is to see what you are going to marry me Hong Chengchou's pearl. ”

At this moment, the smile on Hong Chengchou's face unconsciously expanded a lot, obviously, he was deliberately embarrassing Mao Wenlong.

Feeling Hong Chengchou's ill-intentioned thoughts, Mao Wenlong did not back down in the slightest. stood up and patted his chest in front of Hong Chengchou and said, "Uncle can open his mouth whatever he wants, except for the stars or the moon in the sky, and the throne of the Ming Court, everything else can be." ”

"If you boast about Haikou like this, aren't you afraid that I will make things difficult for you?"

"Since ancient times, there have been beacon fire drama princes, just for the Pomeranians to smile. Although I, Mao Wenlong, don't have that ability, but in order to win the beauty, why worry about making it difficult. ”

"Hahaha......." Hong Chengchou was in a happy mood, and Mao Wenlong's statement was better than anything.

But the old fox is still the old fox, although he is already very satisfied at the moment, but he does not stop there, but officially said: "When you quell the rebellion in the Central Plains, it will be the day to marry my daughter." ”

"It's a deal!"

"It's a deal!"

At night, an old man and a young man looked at each other and laughed at the night sky!
