"What is it?" Li Zhang said in disbelief when he heard Lu Wu's words, he wondered if he had heard it wrong?

"Blind date, you're not too young, it's time to find a partner!" Lu Wu said again, listening to his tone, it seemed that it was a very normal thing for the twelve-year-old Li Zhang to go on a blind date.

"I ...... I'm still a child, Uncle Wu, are you sure you're not mistaken? Li Zhang shouted with a sad face, although he has the soul of an adult, he is indeed a child on the outside, and during this time he has slowly adapted to the identity of a child, and he has never thought about getting married, even if he adds the previous life, he is also a single.

"What a child, twelve is not young anymore, and there are many people who are fathers in twelve!" Lu Wu couldn't help but say it, and at the same time, he didn't stop at all, and he didn't know where to take Li Zhang.

Hearing Lu Wu's words, Li Zhang was completely dead, he and the other party have a generation gap of more than 1,000 years, and there is no way to communicate on the issue of marriage, of course, what Lu Wu said is also the truth, some people have children at the age of twelve to become parents, but this kind of thing is relatively rare even in the Great Song Dynasty, and generally Song people will get married in fifteen or sixteen.

Lu Wu pulled Li Zhang through Wuqi Street, and then turned left and right through the alleys, and finally Li Zhang couldn't help but ask again: "Uncle Wu, where are we going, why do you suddenly want me to go on a blind date?" ”

"It's almost here, it's not that I want you to go on a blind date, but I discussed it with your father and decided to set up a family affair for you as soon as possible, and a man can only settle down when he becomes a parent!" Lu Wu finally glanced at Li Zhang meaningfully at this time.

"Then why don't you get married, Uncle Wu, your heart hasn't settled down yet?" Li Zhang immediately asked rhetorically.

"Stinky boy, I'm different from you, don't talk so much nonsense, there is the person who is going to go on a blind date today, your father has already discussed it with others inside, wait for you to behave better!" When Lu Wu heard Li Zhang's words, he was a little annoyed, and then he ignored Li Zhang, and pulled him to the door of a quiet small courtyard, where there was a tall mulberry tree, and its lush branches and leaves almost covered the entire courtyard.

Lu Wu pulled Li Zhang to the door, and then knocked lightly on the door, and then a dark and thin middle-aged woman opened the door, and when she saw Lu Wu, she immediately invited them in, and her eyes kept looking at Li Zhang, Li Zhang was also looking at each other, and said that her daughter was like a mother, if she wanted to meet the daughter of the woman in front of her, then he was really a little disappointed in this blind date.

This courtyard is not big, there are three main rooms plus a side room, Li Zhang was pulled into the main hall by Lu Wu, and saw Li Yonghe sitting there at a glance, and when he saw the owner of this house, he was suddenly stunned and shouted: "Why are you?" ”

The old man on the main throne was also stunned when he saw Li Zhang, and then smiled in surprise: "It seems that we are really destined, but I didn't expect that the person who was going on a blind date today was you!" ”

Although the old man Li Zhang has only seen him once, he is deeply impressed, because he is the old pedant who wrote letters when he went to Wuqi Temple to ask for words that day, and the other party still pulled him to tell him about the "Nine Stacks of Seals", but Li Zhang ran away without looking back, never expected that the person he wanted to go on a blind date would be him?

"You know?" Lu Wu couldn't help but ask in surprise when he saw the performance of Li Zhang and the old man.

"I can't talk about acquaintance, it's just that he went to me to ask a question, and he had a relationship." I saw that the old man looked at Li Zhang and smiled at this time, and Li Zhang was also a little embarrassed at this time, he didn't expect to meet the other party one day at all, and it was in this situation.

"This is called fate, Master Zhou, look at how my son is, not only has a long spirit, but also opened a store by himself, so that his son-in-law can't find it with a lantern!" Li Yonghe's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately pointed at Li Zhang and praised him.

Li Zhang only knew that the old pedant's surname was Zhou, and at this time Master Zhou also invited them to sit down, and then a little girl about the same age as Li Zhang brought them tea, and secretly looked at Li Zhang, it is estimated that she is the daughter of Master Zhou, and her appearance is quite delicate, but her thin body can't even tell the front and back, Li Zhang is not Lolitacon, and she is naturally not interested in this kind of little girl.

"Master Zhou, if you think it's appropriate, why don't we get married!" At this time, Li Yonghe spoke again, which made Li Zhang also frown, he didn't want to get engaged, and he always felt that Li Yonghe's attitude was a little strange, even if it was a blind date, he had never seen someone who was so anxious to get engaged?

"This kid asked me for a word last time, and I heard him say that he has also studied, and he is also a good child, but the little girl is young, is it a little early to get engaged now?" At this time, Master Zhou stroked his beard and said with some hesitation.

"Master Zhou, my nephew is not an ordinary person, he can start from scratch at a young age, you should have heard of his Li Ji braised meat shop, it is really a prosperous business, if your daughter marries, she must not worry about eating and drinking, and you can rest assured in terms of bride price, we will definitely satisfy you!" At this time, Lu Wu also spoke, and he seemed to be in the same hurry as Li Yonghe, in a hurry to finalize Li Zhang's marriage.

"Lu Bantou, you also know that our family has been a scholar for generations, I have three daughters, and the two eldest are married to scholars, I see that Li Zhang's child is still young, and now he has an industry to eat and drink, if he is willing to study with me now, it is not impossible to be engaged now!" At this time, Zhou Fuzi finally said what was in his heart, and also put forward a condition.

Don't look at Master Zhou, who has read all his life and has not read any fame, and even fell to the point of writing letters to people for a living, but he has been high all his life, and only a scholar can get into his eyes, and he can't look down on Li Zhang, a small businessman who runs a cheap business, fortunately, Li Zhang is young and looks smart, so he wants Li Zhang to give up business and study.

"Okay, that's it, boy, you will hand over the business to Douzi and them in the future, and you will prepare a bride price tomorrow to get engaged!" Lu Wu immediately agreed for Li Zhang, without asking Li Zhang if he agreed.

"Uncle Wu, I don't agree!" Li Zhang stood up at this time and said, this is also the first time he has expressed his thoughts since coming here.

"What do you disagree with, what can you do as a businessman, didn't you say before that you wanted to find a gentleman to teach you to read, and now that Master Zhou is willing to teach, you just follow suit!" Lu Wu said with a glaring eye at this time.

Li Zhang can compromise on other things, but this matter cannot, I saw him patiently explain at this time: "Uncle Wu, although the braised meat shop is not bad now, but the beans are too young and their ability is not enough, if I leave it alone, there will definitely be a mess, if the business of this shop is not good, then what will more than a dozen of us live on in the future?" ”

When Li Zhang said this, he paused for a moment, and then spoke again: "In addition, although it is a good thing to study, I am also willing to study, but there are only a few hundred people in the imperial court every time, there are so many scholars in the world, and a few people can pass the exam, and take a lifetime to fight for such a small opportunity, I think it is better to go into business, at least to ensure that food and clothing are not worried!" ”

"You ......" Lu Wu was not good at words, and was also speechless by Li Zhang's refutation at this time, Li Yonghe hurriedly persuaded at this time, "Da Lang, you can't say that, although the chance of winning the lift is very small, but reading is the right way after all, I don't know how many people want to study but can't get it, Master Zhou's knowledge is also one top one, you will definitely be able to learn a famous hall in the future if you follow him!" ”

However, Li Zhang didn't pay attention to Li Yonghe's words, but stood up and bowed his hand to Master Zhou: "Master Zhou, I am a businessman, even if I study in the future, I am afraid I will not participate in the imperial examination, and today's blind date is really a bit hasty, I am not ready, why don't we all go back and think about it, I don't know what you think?" ”

"That's it, since you don't agree, then forget about this marriage!" Zhou Fuzi also heard the meaning of Li Zhang's words, and waved his hand in disappointment at the moment.

"Boy, ......" Lu Wu slapped the case angrily at this time, and his face turned red, but he didn't know what to say?

"Uncle Wu, let's go back and talk about it if we have something!" Li Zhang smiled apologetically at Lu Wu at this time, although he didn't know why Lu Wu was in a hurry to get married, but he knew that Lu Wu shouldn't harm him, but he didn't want to decide the matter of his life so easily.

"Alas~, then we take our leave!" Lu Wu also sighed when he heard Li Zhang's words, and then turned around and left, without waiting for Li Zhang's father and son, it seemed that he was really angry.

Li Zhang hurriedly followed Lu Wu, Li Yonghe kept apologizing to Master Zhou in the back, and even wanted to make peace again, and Li Zhang also caught up with Lu Wu who went out at this time, and immediately grabbed the other party and said: "Uncle Wu, don't be angry, even if you are for my good, but marriage can't be a child's play, and even if the marriage is made today, but if we don't get along after marriage, wouldn't it be more disturbing to quarrel every day?" ”

"As far as your kid is reasonable, marriage is the order of his parents and the words of the matchmaker, if she is disobedient after marriage, you can just beat it, what is so much?" Lu Wu said angrily at the moment, his view of marriage is really simple and rude, of course, this is also in line with the thinking of most people in this era.

"I married a wife because I wanted to raise my eyebrows with her and grow old together, not to find someone to fight with me, in the future, I will definitely find a woman I like and like me as a wife, if I can't find it, I'd rather not marry, so Uncle Wu, you don't have to worry about my marriage!" Li Zhang patiently persuaded again, this is Lu Wu, and Li Yong and him will not bother with this tongue.

"But......" Lu Wu seemed to have something unspeakable, and he wanted to say something but couldn't say it, and in the end he could only turn into a long sigh, and the whole person became a little depressed.
