Chapter 34
Where did Liang Zheng know this kind of daughter's mind? Since people don't want to help, they don't pay attention to it, and under the hot day, they led a group of generals to cross the city pass, find an inn and settle down, while calling Xu Hu, planning to take the name to the house of Shen Mingchen, the "father-in-law" Shen Mingchen who has never met.
"Have you collected all the silver tickets?"
On the way, Liang Zheng turned back again and asked.
"Don't worry, young master, take it all." Xu Hu replied respectfully.
Although this is the third time that the young master of his own family has asked about this matter along the way, it is no wonder that you must know that this time the purchase of brocade silk, plus the expenses of recruitment, food and salary, etc., ...... Although the Liang family is solid, it is not like the Shen Mansion after all, it is a wealthy businessman on the rich side, which has almost taken out half of the Liang Mansion......
Can you not be nervous.
"Hmm...... Remember to put it away. Liang Zheng nodded and explained again.
"That's fine." Xu Hu smiled, "It's just that young master, let's go, people will definitely ask about the marriage period, do you want to pay it back?" ”
"This ......"
Liang Zheng had a faint headache.
For the evil marriage contract system of feudal society, to be honest, he is quite disgusted......
The man and woman have never even met each other, they haven't said a word, and they don't know if each other's personalities are compatible, but they want to sleep together immediately, which ......
He thought that when he crossed over, his father had already passed away, so he could finally avoid this section, and even if he got married in the future, he could carefully choose a satisfactory one by himself. Unexpectedly, this cheap father still cheated himself before he died, not only gave the marriage, but also set the most fatal "finger for marriage......
The woman has already been your wife in her mother's belly, not to mention the character, no one has even seen the appearance - it is too late to see it, and the family affair has already been decided.
This kind of marriage is like buying a lottery ticket, and the odds of winning the 5 million jackpot are almost zero.
So after hearing this amazing news from Su Qinghe's mouth, he subconsciously avoided thinking about this question.
Since Daddy has been delaying for so long, then he is simply an ostrich......
"Let's come to Henan to buy military uniforms for group training, let's do serious things first, and talk about the rest later." He could only say, "If the other party really asks, you can say it...... Just say...... Hmmm......"
"Just ......?"
"Hmm......"
"Young Master?"
"That's it!" Liang Zheng gritted his teeth, "Let's just say that I have a hidden disease." ”
"Huh?" Xu Hu opened his mouth wide, wondering if he was a little auditory hallucination.
"It's naturally not easy for me to talk about this kind of thing myself, so it can also explain why my father has been dragging out not to get married, the best of both worlds, it's best for the Shen family to take the initiative to withdraw from the family."
"Ugh."
"Huh?" Seeing that the other party didn't react for a long time, Liang Zheng raised his eyebrows, "What?" I don't mind what else you're afraid of? ”
"No, nothing."
※※※
Shen Mansion is located in the south of Jingmenmen, Yuzhen Guandong, this area is the settlement of dignitaries, in today's words, that is, in Beijing's second ring road, Seoul's Jiangnan District, a long street is full of Henan Mansion Desu elders, gentry mansions, one is more magnificent, one is more magnificent than the other.
Liang Zheng took Xu Hu and stopped in front of a red lacquered gate with a tiger's head shopped, two stone lions on the left and right, and a large plaque with a blue background and mud gold on the main door, and a few big characters in the big book "Inner Residence Household Department Jin Shilang Zhongshen".
Liang Zheng pondered for a while, then Xu Hu stepped forward and knocked on the door, who knew that after knocking for a long time, there was no reaction at all, Xu Hu couldn't help but laugh and scolded:
"It's really fucking weird, such a big mansion, it's not even a big deal, if it weren't for this blue sky, what the hell?"
"Xu is the sky is too boring, the little guys guarding the door are too lazy." Liang Zheng wiped his sweat and shook his fan to cool down, "Shout twice, it's really no one, let's forget it, we'll come back tomorrow when it's cool, and we're not in a hurry to meet at this time." ”
As the two were talking, they heard the footsteps inside, and followed the door "squeak" halfway open, and a young girl came out, dressed in a light gauze white dress, with a long body and a slender body like bamboo, bright eyes and bright teeth, slanted eyebrows and sideburns, as if she was in the smoke and fog, but her face was obviously a little complaining and impatient:
"Who...... Yah~~! ”
The last last note, the moment he saw Liang Zheng, dragged out an exclamation of astonishment.
And the melon seed face that was combined with delicate facial features also solidified the expression at the same time.
Liang Zheng was also stunned at this moment, and involuntarily wanted to step forward, but he stood on his feet steeply, already like a puppet!
The beauty in front of her who can make people breathe is not the girlfriend Li Zhenzhen who she misses?
Soon, though, he calmed down again.
She can't be Li Zhenzhen, she just happens to look alike.
Because just ...... From the beautiful voice of her silver bell, and even from the moment she uttered the first syllable, she recognized the other person - she was the young lady who had followed her all the way.
How did she end up here?
The two men looked at each other stupidly, allowing the silence to spread uncontrollably in the world between them as if it were substance, making the already dull and oppressive air even more difficult to breathe. After being stunned for a long time, Liang Zheng said as if he had recovered his language function:
"Is this the Shen Mansion? Please report it, and say that Yongning Liang Zheng is here to ......"
As a result, before he could finish the last word "visit", the girl's originally very fair skin turned red:
"Amitabha!"
Leaving this Buddha name that made Liang Zheng stunned again, Shen Wanyue turned her head and ran away with her hands on her face.
"Young, young master, ...... this?"
It was Xu Hu who spoke, and he obviously hadn't recovered from the unexpected encounter just now.
However, Liang Zheng already understood it thoroughly.
The bits and pieces along the way, like a movie, flashed in his mind:
lived in Henan, accompanied by maids and servants, and appeared in the Shen Mansion...... It turned out that the one who walked with him all the way was his wife Shen Wanyue, who had never passed through the door.
Along the way, she has been wearing a shallow dew, and she can't see the true face of Lushan, although judging from her body shape, she should be a beauty embryo, but Liang Zheng never imagined that she herself was so beautiful.
More important ......
She actually looks exactly like her girlfriend Li Zhenzhen!
I remember that Su Qinghe once said to himself: Shen Juren has no children under his knees, only this daughter, who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can also help her father take care of business and share worries and labor......
No wonder she played the piano well, no wonder she carried so many cargo boxes with her, and even attracted the attention of the robbers because of this.
It's really "a hundred years of repairing the same boat"......
actually won a 5 million jackpot!
"Anything goes." Liang Zheng was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and quickly coughed a few times to cover it up, and then smiled faintly, "Since the door is open, let's go in." ”
※※※
Despite being left in the doorway again, the embarrassment did not last long. Not long after Shen Wanyue ran away, a small guy came out of the rockery behind her, bowing and laughing vigorously:
"I really didn't know that my uncle was here, just now the girl let ...... Phew, just now the old man asked the little one to invite the little uncle to the study to talk. ”
Liang Zheng smiled slightly, didn't care about his slip of the tongue, led by him through a moon cave door, bypassed the verandah on both sides, went around the back door, zigzagged for a while, came to a big house with carved beams and paintings, just opened the curtain cage, and heard a hearty laugh from inside:
"My God, I can count myself on seeing people!"
Speaking of greeting a middle-aged scribe with a clear appearance, Xiao Shuxuan pulled Liang Zheng, as if he had picked up a treasure, and kept looking up and down:
"I remember the last time I saw you, it was only me with my knees high, and now I am ...... I don't even dare to admit it - is the old general good? ”
Shen Mingchen was happy in his heart.
He is a scholarly family, a person who has read books, and understands the truth of Entu Bao: I want to be famous and desperate when I fell to Sun Mountain, if it weren't for Liang Yuanzhi's funding, I'm afraid that my bones would have turned to ashes now. How can we have the illustrious wealth now?
What's more, in theory, the marriage contract is there, and the daughter is the wife of the other party, even if the other party is so poor that he wants to eat, he must not change his wife and remarry, not to mention that the in-laws still carry themselves with one hand and help their great benevolence in the most difficult time.
But seeing that his daughter is gradually growing up, but his in-laws have always been hesitant about marriage, as a father, he is anxious.
Speaking from the heart, Shen Mingchen also wondered if his in-laws disliked him, after all, although he is now an imperial businessman, he has the word "business" in the end...... However, Liang Yuanzhi's answer was negative, but the reason was never to say, he asked a few times, and simply disappeared, and Su Qinghe, who was in charge, received him on his behalf, and he ran away a few times, so he was embarrassed to come to the door again.
Now that his daughter is as big as a day, she is about to be widowed, Shen Mingchen is looking at it in his eyes, anxious in his heart, he didn't expect that the other party finally came to the door today, can he be unhappy.
didn't want him to ask casually, but Liang Zheng sighed quietly: "My father has died." ”
"This ...... Is this true? Shen Mingchen was taken aback, his head "buzzed", and his face suddenly turned pale.
It's only been a few years, why did General Liang pass away?!
"It's true, it's the year before last......"
Xu Hu stepped forward to help, and told the other party about Liang Yuanzhi's dying entrustment. Hearing Shen Mingchen's sighs, he remembered that the two of them went to Beijing together, sat together, drank and talked about poetry, talked about current affairs, and denounced the eunuchs...... How exhilarating?
All this seems to be just yesterday, I didn't expect that I hadn't seen it for a few years, but it was already separated by yin and yang, and I couldn't help but cry like a spring, thanks to everyone's slow persuasion, I gradually stopped, welcomed Liang Zheng into the room, and the two talked slowly.
Shen Mingchen saw that his son-in-law was good at talking and behaving well, and his appearance was also top-notch, he was already overjoyed in his heart, and when he knew that he was now famous and an official, he was even more happy. Hearing that Liang Zheng was coming to purchase brocade silk, he agreed on the spot:
"The virtuous son-in-law just rest assured, some little things are wrapped up in me, at least three days, at most five days, I will definitely be ready, and I will send someone to send it to you."
"Thank you so much." Liang Zheng hurriedly thanked him, and presented the silver ticket for the purchase.
After the settlement was clear, the two talked for a while, and Shen Mingchen turned the topic to the place he was most concerned about: "By the way, about the marriage date......
Here it comes!
It's finally here!
Unexpectedly, the trip to Henan was so smooth, not only solved the problem of brocade silk in military uniforms, but also married a wife like flowers and jade by the way.
Liang Zheng folded the fan and stood up suddenly......
However, before he could speak, he suddenly found that there was another tall figure in front of him, and he directly came to Shen Mingchen's ear:
Xu Hu: "Master Shen, this matter should not be known to people outside the house, but when it comes to this point, I have to say that my young master has a hidden disease......
