Chapter 38: I Want to Marry Your Sister

Jiangning Mansion, Wanfu Building.

"I want to marry Sister Ling."

This was the first thing Zhao Hao said when he saw Wang Jue.

straightforward and straight to the point, Wang Jue just poured a sip of wine into his mouth.

"Brother Zhao Yushu is in the wind, graceful, talented, literary and elegant, and what is even more rare is that he is kind and charitable, helping the world and saving people......"

"You and my brother will say yes or no?" Zhao Hao couldn't help but interrupt when he saw that he had spoken a lot of words but didn't have any dry goods.

Wang Jue put down the wine glass and said with a wry smile: "Brother Fool has always admired Brother Zhao as a person, and he is a brother and sister with Brother Zhao, how can he be unwilling?" It's just that this is not something that a foolish brother can decide, and he has to pass the six arts assessment. ”

"Foolish brother should know that this matter must be examined...... You have to pass the six arts assessment, but it's just an assessment, and you have to help with the help of the virtuous brother. ”

Wang Jue sighed slightly and said, "Since Brother Zhao is so persistent, Brother Fool doesn't know whether to say something or not?" ”

Zhao Hao was stunned: "Brother Xian is coming." ”

"Parents are usually in charge of marriage. In the marriage of the third sister, the father wanted to marry the third son of the Zheng family, but the mother preferred his cousin Xie Gongzi, and the parents could not decide, so they recruited relatives, as for Brother Zhao...... My father and mother don't seem to have any intention of getting married, I'm afraid Brother Zhao ......"

Wang Jue didn't continue, Zhao Hao's heart was already bright: The Wang family is a dark box operation, the unspoken rules have been set, either Zheng Yu or Xie Yu, nothing does to him Zhao Hao.

"Sister Ling and I were born a pair, a pair on the ground, we are in love, and we are lovesick, how can Lingzun Lingtang beat the mandarin ducks?"

“……”

"There is a saying, I would rather demolish ten temples than a marriage, I and Ling Mei are willing to be winged birds in heaven, and we are willing to tie the knot and branch on the ground, grow old together, and live and die unswervingly!"

“……”

Zhao Hao talked nonsense in a serious way, and seeing that Wang Jue was unmoved, he had to ask dejectedly: "Six Arts Assessment, Brother Wang has an invigilator?" ”

Wang Jue said: "Foolish brother is still martial, invigilating archery." ”

Zhao Hao looked at Wang Jue with a smile, and said leisurely: "Brother Wang and I are brothers and sisters, and I hope that Brother Wang must help me in the matter of archery assessment." ”

Wang Jue frowned suddenly, and was silent for a long time, and said for a long time: "Even if the foolish brother goes out and does something for Brother Zhao, after passing the level of archery, I'm afraid it won't help, and you have to go through three more arts." ”

Zhao Hao was overjoyed when he heard that he was relieved to help, but his face was calm and relaxed: "If Brother Xian can help me pass the archery assessment, I will pass the three arts of calligraphy, mathematics, and music, so that my sister can enter the Zhao Mansion." ”

Wang Jue saw that he was full of confidence and confident, his face showed doubt, and asked: "Brother Xian's calligraphy, I have already learned it at the Peony Flower Club that day, and I am safe." It's just that I haven't seen the virtuous brother play music, and there are many musicians in Jiangning City, so it's probably not easy to get into the top ten. And the art of arithmetic is even more profound, with all due respect to the foolish brother, the virtuous brother has never liked to read, and it is even more difficult to pass the arithmetic level. ”

Zhao Hao smiled indifferently: "Don't hide it from Brother Xian, I recently studied under Meilin Jushi, and I have been learning the piano for several months, and my piano skills have improved by leaps and bounds, so I may be able to give it a try." As for arithmetic, if I don't bother with it, I will pass it. ”

When Wang Jue heard the words "Merlin Layman", his expression immediately became solemn, and when he saw Zhao Hao's confident appearance, he was no longer suspicious, and said decisively: "In this case, as long as Brother Zhao can pass the other three arts, I will be scolded by the adults, and I will also help Brother Zhao pass the first level of archery!" ”

Good brother, for a lifetime!

Zhao Hao was already happy in his heart, and he still maintained a faint smile on his face, looking at Wang Jue and listening to him continue.

"In the examination of archery, I should help Brother Xian pass the test, and as for the other three arts, I also ask Brother Xian to ask for more blessings."

After Wang Jue finished speaking, he stood up and saluted Zhao Hao: "Today's matter, this is the end, I hope that Brother Xian will be cautious, and don't pass it away." ”

Zhao Hao hurriedly got up and returned the salute.

But seeing Wang Jue suddenly turned around, he looked at Zhao Hao with a solemn face, and said word by word: "That day, at the Yiya Conference, Zhao Fu won, and the sister cheered, even happier than the foolish brother...... I'm not helping Brother Xian, but helping my sister, and I hope Brother Xian won't take it. ”

After throwing down these words, Wang Jue strode out without looking back, leaving Zhao Hao with a confused face, standing in the private room.

After a long time, he touched his face and muttered: "I didn't expect that the charm of this son is so strong." ”

………

At night, the night is hazy.

Zheng Mansion, quiet fasting, the lights are dim.

"Nine taels of ginseng, nine taels of Ganoderma lucidum, nine taels of He Shou Wu...... The medicine leads to a hundred pairs, with the peak, boiled for an hour, and takes the decoction, which can be used to remove the disease and rejuvenate. Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, I don't know how the old official's medicine is prepared? ”

The speaker, about forty years old, lean but quite tough, wearing a brand-new black robe, eyes like electricity, intimidating, was the same Aoki Taoist whom Zhao Hao had met last night, sitting cross-legged on a futon.

"Alas...... The rest of the medicinal materials are easy to find, but it is difficult to attract a hundred pairs of medicines, and now it is eighty-five, and it is almost time to see it. Zheng An, who was sitting next to Aoki Dao Chang, changed his previous prestige, his face was full of piety, and he said to the Aoki Dao Chang respectfully.

The Aoki Daoren's eyes closed slightly, and suddenly he struck out a palm, and a brazier in front of him suddenly burst into flames, illuminating the room brightly.

The blazing firelight illuminated the innocent face of Aoki Daoren, which became more mysterious and solemn, and Aoki Daoren's hand shook, and a yellow paper talisman appeared in his hand, which was full of tadpole-like runes that looked like words.

Aoki Daoren stared at the rune for a long time, and then threw the rune into the brazier, his face became more and more solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "The way of heaven is different, the stars and the moon have no light, and the evil cult is secretly active, sooner or later it will be a disaster in Jiangnan, the land of Jiangnan, it will be a big chaos in the near future, and the old benefactor should speed up, otherwise I am afraid that the family business will be damaged." ”

Such a trick of pretending to be a ghost, if Zhao Hao was here, he would definitely take off his shoes and slap his face, but in Zheng An's eyes, it was an unpredictable and boundless performance of mana.

The Aoki Daoist pretended to be a ghost for a long time, and then took out a jade bottle from his arms and handed it to Zheng An with a serious expression: "This elixir is made after 7749 days of refining in the Poor Dao, which can temporarily alleviate the illness of the old official. ”

Zheng An was overjoyed and hurriedly took it: "Thank you, Daoist." ”

Aoki Daoren slowly stood up: "It's not too early, the poor Dao should go back to the house to practice, and the old officials take care." ”

Zheng An turned around and ordered, "Send the Taoist chief back to the room." ”

The Aoki Taoist said goodbye to Zheng An, and under the leadership of the Zhao family, he came to the door of an elegant upper room.

The door was pushed open, but on the clean and tidy wooden bed, a woman was struggling desperately on the bed with her hands and feet fixed to the four corners of the wooden bed with strips of cloth.

The family said respectfully: "Although this woman is a village girl, she is a virgin, and I also ask the Taoist chief to rest assured that she will cultivate." ”

The Aoki Michicho nodded, waving for the family to leave.

The door was shut, and the family heard a roar from afar.

"Don't panic, don't panic, the poor road just wants to double cultivate immortal arts with you......"

The family shook their heads and muttered, "With such a double cultivation, I would also like to practice every day, and I don't know what kind of ecstasy the old official has been poured into." ”

In the meditation fast, after Zheng An took the "elixir", he was really refreshed and his mind was clear.

At this moment, the fat butler of the Zheng Mansion came in a hurry, walked up to Zheng An, and whispered something.

Zheng An's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Call me all the little ones." ”

After a while, Zheng Qing and Zheng Feng father and son, as well as Zheng Hong and Zheng Yu father and son in the second room, under the leadership of the fat housekeeper, came in a hurry.

"This recruitment is related to the overall situation of the Zheng family in Jiangning, and if the three families of Zhao Xie and Wang are married, it will be very unfavorable to my family. Wang Tong's heir Wang Di is an official in Beijing, and he has always wanted to marry my Zheng family, and I heard that Wang Tong also attaches great importance to Yu'er. Even if Xie Yu performs well, I'm afraid it will not be the choice of the Wang family. After all, the Xie family has not been an official in Beijing for many years, and although the wealth is great, it is limited to the land south of the Yangtze River after all. Therefore, Yu'er must work hard, as long as she passes the assessment of the six arts, the daughter of the Wang family will be the daughter-in-law of my Zheng family. If Wang Zhengruo marries, how can Zhao Xie be enough? ”

"Save your grandson!"

"This battle is only allowed to win, not defeated, Feng'er has always been prodigal, lack of learning, it will be difficult to enter the eyes of the Wang family, but you must do your best to help Yu'er. As long as Yu'er succeeds, you will be rewarded for both rooms, regardless of each other. If that doesn't work out, don't come back. ”

"Grandson obeys!"

A recruitment of relatives has not yet begun, and the city is already full of wind and rain.
