After Zhang Cheng turned around, he saw that it was Qin Sisi's father, and his expression was very unnatural, after all, he said in front of his daughter that his father didn't say it, and let her father hear it, which really made Zhang Cheng regret that he just wanted to slap himself a few big mouths.

Seeing that it was her father, Qin Sisi showed a bright smile and stepped forward and said coquettishly: "Daddy, why are you here?" ”

"If you don't come again, the old man's daughter will run away with others." After finishing speaking, he looked at Zhang Cheng with a smile on his lips as if he had a deep meaning.

Zhang Cheng had to show an ugly smile, and said fakely: "It turned out to be Uncle Qin, Gu Su is goodbye, how is your health?" ”

"Hmph, the old man is very good, but the virtuous nephew is a good method, and the golden cicada is very good to use to shed its shell!" Leng snorted twice, speaking in a strange tone of yin and yang.

Zhang Cheng secretly rolled his eyes, and said in his heart, you dead old man, if it weren't for the fact that you were an official and Qin Sisi's father, Lao Tzu wouldn't have eaten you.

I was lustful in my heart, and my mood suddenly improved a lot, but in order to cope with the past, I had to think about it, and casually made up a reason: "Uncle, the little nephew left in a hurry that day and couldn't say goodbye, so I apologize to you today, and you don't care about the villain." ”

After speaking, Zhang Cheng bowed down to apologize.

Seeing this, Qin Sisi on the side stepped forward to hold Qin's father's arm, and said quietly: "Dad, he has apologized to you, you can let him go." ”

Seeing this, Father Qin glanced at Zhang Cheng angrily, and had to say, "Okay, good, okay, the old man will let him go." After a pause, he burst out with an astonishing sentence, "Boy Zhang, when are you going to come to the door with a dowry ceremony?!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the three people in the audience were stunned, Zhang Cheng was instantly dumbfounded, Qin Sisi lowered her head shyly, and Shishi on the side had a very ugly look on her face.

After a while, Zhang Cheng glanced at Qin Sisi before he said to his father, "That, uncle, isn't it too hasty?" ”

"Hmph, why weren't you hasty when you slighted my daughter on the street?" Father Qin pointed at Zhang Cheng and snorted coldly.

"That's ......." opened his mouth, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back, and he felt that he was at a loss, so he could only keep his mouth shut.

"What, pretend to be dumb, eat and wipe clean and don't admit it, tell you, stinky boy, the old man's daughter is not something anyone can marry." Seeing that he didn't speak, Father Qin angrily reprimanded Zhang Cheng again.

And Sisi saw that he didn't speak, and she was very sad in her heart at this time, and her resentful eyes pointed at Zhang Cheng with a mist.

Zhang Cheng glanced at Sisi, saw that the corners of his eyes were misty, and sighed secretly: "Uncle, the little nephew has neither merit nor money, how to marry." ”

Seeing that Zhang Cheng finally spoke, Father Qin raised his eyebrows, smiled unnaturally on his lips, touched his beard, and said in a deep voice: "Fame is not a problem, now you are also a hot talent in Da Zhou, there is an old man, it is not a problem to recommend you to be an official, as for money, it is not a problem." ”

Hearing this, a flash of surprise flashed in Zhang Cheng's eyes, and after thinking about it for a while, he realized that it was true that this old man asked him to marry him, but his ultimate goal was to make him an official. Thinking of this, the corners of Zhang Cheng's mouth twitched unnaturally a few times, and he had to eat Huanglian dumbly, and he had to swallow it even if it was bitter.

After hesitating for a moment, seeing that everyone in the audience was waiting for his reply, Zhang Cheng had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "In this case, please ask your uncle to decide." ”

Father Qin waved his hand and said to him: "Such a big thing still requires the consent of your parents, fortunately, as far as the old man knows, your father is now living in Yangzhou and doing salt tea business, and I will let you take you there later." ”

Zhang Cheng then remembered that his cheap father was doing business in Yangzhou, and he forgot about it all the way. Talking about his cheap father, Zhang Cheng felt unnaturally worried, maybe this is because of the skin, deep in the soul, blood is finally thicker than water.

Although Zhang Cheng didn't want to see this so-called father, however, in ancient times, marriage matters had to be decided by his parents, and no matter how unruly Zhang Cheng was, he had to do it according to the rules, so Zhang Cheng had to nod and agree.

Seeing that Zhang Cheng agreed, he left the two guards and ordered to take Zhang Cheng back to Zhang's father, and Sisi looked back at Zhang Cheng in three steps, looking very reluctant, and finally left at the urging of Qin's father.

"Zhang Gongzi, please come here." One Guardian Road.

The thought of seeing the cheap father in a while, my heart was full of reluctance, but I still got into the carriage with Shishi.

Speechless all the way, his heart was very uncalm, and it was difficult to sit still, Shishi stepped forward and gently held Zhang Cheng, which made Zhang Cheng's heart a little calmer.

"Shishi, do you think I should go to see my father?" Zhang Cheng leaned back against the carriage and asked in a low voice with squinting his eyes.

Shishi thought for a while, and then said: "Xianggong, you have been away from home for some time, as the saying goes, your parents are not far away, you still have to meet anyway." ”

Zhang Cheng sighed and nodded.

About half an hour later, the carriage had stopped, Zhang Cheng was very worried, and rubbed on the carriage for a long time, and finally Shishi got off the carriage half-pushed and half-pulled.

After the guards said goodbye to Zhang Cheng, Zhang Cheng stood outside the door, looking at the plaque that said Zhang's firm, and a kind of sourness appeared in his heart.

Shishi didn't know what to do at this time, so she could only stand aside until she caught the attention of the second child in the store.

"This son, I don't know what you're doing here?" Xiao Er saluted and asked.

Zhang Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that it seemed that he didn't even know what the cheap father's name was, so he had to smile bitterly in his heart and say to him: "You go to report to your master, and say that Zhang Cheng is here." “

Xiao Er was very surprised when he heard this, looked up and down, and guessed in his heart that this son was also surnamed Zhang, could it be a relative? No matter what, let's report it first.

"Childe, please wait a moment, the villain will go." After finishing speaking, Xiao Er walked towards the back room.

After a while, I saw a middle-aged man stepping out of the back room. A stiff and cold face, the appearance is seven or eight points similar to Zhang Cheng, and the eyes are shining with a sharp light, which is very majestic.

"Son, where have you been all these months?" Father Zhang was anxious in his heart, and asked with concern while scolding. After a pause, he shouted loudly, "Your mother wrote to me, and I already know about Luluo, but you ran away from home without permission, and you still have me as a father in your eyes?" “

Zhang Cheng was just silent, not wanting to talk to him. Besides, now that this cheap father is on the rise, he doesn't know what to say, forget it, it's okay to be scolded by him.

said that there was a small half-pillar incense time, and Zhang's father noticed that there was a beautiful woman next to Zhang Cheng, so he asked him: "Cheng'er, who is this girl?" “

Seeing that Zhang's father asked about Shishi, he couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb anymore, and replied: "Dad, this is Shishi, one of your future daughters-in-law!" ”

Father Zhang's eyebrows furrowed slightly, looked up and down slightly, and said to him, "Hmph, let me in first." ”

followed Zhang's father into the shop, and walked straight to the study, and when he arrived at the door of the study, Zhang's father said to Shishi: "Shishi girl, I still have something to talk about with Cheng'er, you can rest for a while." ”

After hearing this, Shishi looked at Zhang Cheng, saw Zhang Cheng nodding his forehead, saying a blessing to Zhang's father, and retreated.

After Zhang's father saw Shishi leaving, he closed the door and was about to open his mouth to ask Zhang Cheng, but he didn't expect Zhang Cheng to take the lead and said: "Dad, you have to ask me about it later, and now Cheng'er has something to tell you." ”

Father Zhang was stunned when he heard this, but he still spoke calmly, "Say it." ”

"Dad, do you know Lord Qin, the secretary of the military department?" Zhang Cheng asked.

"The military department is still in the book?" Father Zhang was a little surprised, and his face was full of incredulity. After a pause, he asked in a tight voice, "Cheng'er, did you commit something?" ”

Zhang Cheng hurriedly said: "No, he has a daughter named Qin Sisi, I have a love affair with her, and I want to marry her, so I came to you to ask." ”

Zhang's father looked dazed, and when Zhang Cheng saw this, he told Zhang's father what happened today.

After hearing this, Father Zhang's face was overjoyed, but he still couldn't believe it, so he said in a slower tone: "Cheng'er, this is a rare opportunity, you have no merit and fame now, since it is best to have Lord Qin to take care of it, I agree to this marriage." ”

Zhang's father was very excited, if Zhang Cheng could really enter the court as an official, then the Zhang family would step into the officialdom again, and his regrets would be made up.

Then he remembered that he didn't know how to be an official back then, offended his colleagues, and was ostracized and framed by villains, but fortunately he escaped with the help of nobles, otherwise the Zhang family would have been finished.
