Chapter 263: Don't be afraid of rumors
Zhou Zhi was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart, it has only been five or six days since he went to Gaoyang County, how could there be rumors at home?
Glancing at his mother's melancholy appearance, Zhou Zhi asked softly, "The child doesn't know where his mother's words start, what kind of rumors are they?" Please also ask the mother to tell the child well. ”
Zhou Heshi, the mother, said in a deep voice, "Actually, I don't believe in the rumors, but I am really worried about my mother, this is someone deliberately destroying my son's reputation, and my son still has to guard against it." ”
Zhou He just said this, and his sister Zhou Luyun suddenly came over and said, "Mother, who is not clear, hum!" That's when others saw that my family's life was better, and Xiaozhi won the first case in the county exam, the government exam, and the provincial exam, and there was a lot of limelight, some people were envious, jealous and hateful, and said bad things about him behind his back, and it was inevitable to have some right and wrong. ”
Zhou He and Zhou Luyun only said this, but they never said what the rumors were, so Zhou Zhi couldn't help but be a little anxious, but fortunately, his brother-in-law Hu Zhe said with great concern, "After Xiao Zhi went to Gaoyang County in the past few days, somehow, rumors about you appeared in Gaochang Town.
Rumor has it that you are a prodigal, frivolous person, entangled with a geisha named Li Yuanyuan in the Ten Mile Piaoxiang Restaurant in Gaochang Town.
That Li Yuanyuan was originally a woman from a good family, but in the restaurant, Xiao Zhi fell in love with her at first sight, and he did it. At that time, Xiao Zhi also said that if you passed the Xiao Sanyuan exam, if Li Yuanyuan follows you, he will definitely be able to eat and drink spicy food in the future, and enjoy endless glory and wealth.
In short, at that time, Xiaozhi was extremely frivolous with Li Yuanyuan, and he was dissolute, making the whole restaurant miserable at that time, and Li Yuanyuan repeatedly begged you to let her go, but you still moved your hands and feet against her, pestering.
At that time, it was also thanks to the shopkeeper of the restaurant who came forward to speak for Li Yuanyuan, so he stopped you and saved Li Yuanyuan. ”
When Zhou Zhi heard this, he was angry.
What the hell is going on? Li Yuanyuan, what entanglement can I have with Li Yuanyuan, can I be entangled with a prostitute and a femme fatale? It's too underestimating me, right?
What nonsense, blood spurts!
Zhou Zhi's face turned red for a while, and his chest rose and fell violently.
Mother-in-law Zhou He, sister Zhou Luyun and brother-in-law Hu Zhe all comforted together, "Xiaozhi don't be so angry, those with ulterior motives will jump out on their own sooner or later, hum!" When the time comes, Xiao Zhi will find a way to clean him up. ”
In fact, Zhou Zhi is very clear that the so-called Mu Xiu Yu Lin Feng will destroy it, and he doesn't say that he is showing Yu Lin now, but at this time, he is somewhat famous, and it is reasonable to be hated by others.
But this person who hates himself thinks of something that is not good, but he made such a scandal out of nothing, which is really ulterior motives. But who is this man? In fact, I have always been cautious these days, and I have never offended anyone.
Alas! Maybe the mouth grows on others, and they can say whatever they want. You can't let these trivial gossips affect your mood and delay your big things.
I am thoughtful and righteous, walking at the end of the road, dignified, not afraid of rumors.
The most important thing at the moment is to build a machine workshop and develop your family's textile industry.
Zhou Zhi thought of this, and suddenly remembered that his sister Zhou Luyun went to the Kou family in Tang County to give a big dowry instead of him. Speaking of which, this matter seems to be more important than the construction workshop, after all, it is a lifelong event, involving his beloved little girl Kou Peihan.
Zhou Zhi asked anxiously, "What was the result of my sister's visit to Kou's house this time?" ”
Zhou Zhi mentioned this, his mother Zhou He and his sister Zhou Luyun showed joy on their faces almost at the same time, and Zhou Luyun said, "This is a happy thing!" My sister and Mr. Fan Jin, as well as Uncle Wang, went to Kou's house to give a big appointment gift, and first talked about the fact that you won the first case in the test. Cluck! Whoever thinks about the Kou family already knows.
Kou Peihan was excited and happy, not to mention, even the Kou family Master Kou was also smiling and warmly entertaining us and other good students.
Master Kou said that he had already seen that his future son-in-law was a great talent, and now he has passed the first test and has become a show talent, and he will be able to take the test next year. Jinshi is coming!
The future son-in-law of his family is a talent among talents.
As for the marriage between Xiaozhi and Kou Peihan, everything is up to Kou Peihan. ”
Zhou Zhi was also very pleased when he heard this. I didn't expect it to go so smoothly this time, and the future father-in-law Kou Dagang originally commented on himself like this. Alas! This is great, Kou Peihan once said that as long as she wins the first case in the Taoist exam, she will soon marry into the Zhou family. But if you don't get the top of the case and are just an ordinary talent, you will have to wait until the end of the year.
If you pass the first test of the case, then the wedding date should be set, right? Pei Han is about to enter the door, right?
Thinking like this, Zhou Zhi could hardly hide the excitement in his heart, and said with a smile, "That sister went this time, did she set a wedding date?" ”
Zhou Luyun hesitated slightly, and then said, "The wedding date has not been set, but in my sister's opinion, the wedding date will not be far away."
Miss Kou Peihan asked about Xiao Zhi, and she heard that Xiao Zhi went to Gaoyang County for her friends, and she seemed to be a little stunned at that time. However, she soon rejoiced again, and said that after Xiao Zhi came back, she wanted you to go to Kou's house in person, and the wedding date would be set. ”
In fact, the date of marriage is set by the matchmaker of both men and women. But Kou Peihan is not an ordinary woman, so she insisted on going to Kou's house and setting a wedding date with Zhou Zhi in person. Zhou Zhi knew very well that this was actually just an excuse for Kou Peihan, who had not seen each other for so long, and Kou Peihan was thinking about himself.
Also, although I am always a little busy these days, Kou Peihan's beautiful image lingers in my mind. I should have gone to meet her a long time ago, and I took the first test and passed the little three yuan, what a happy thing it is.
When there are happy things to share, it makes sense to share them with your loved ones.
Thinking like this, Zhou Zhi nodded lightly and said, "Then I'll go to Kou's house in Tang County tomorrow." ”
Although he was very anxious and eager to see his sweetheart, his face was very indifferent at this time. Hehe! It can't be helped, sometimes you have to be hypocritical so that you don't get ridiculed.
Subsequently, Zhou Zhi invited his father over, and the family held a small family meeting in the makeshift shack.
Zhou Zhi talked about the beginning and end of this trip to Gaoyang County. Explain the whereabouts of the 4,800 taels of silver clearly, and then Zhou Zhi went through a detailed analysis and explanation, and finally said that he wanted the Zhou family to develop the textile industry.
