Chapter 44 Blind Date (II) [Third Update]
Judging from the skills shown by Li Congjing, there are many ways for him to win this archery, but he found a way to extremely insult Wu Ming, and shot Wu Ming's arrows one by one, which is no longer simply a slap in the face, but a slap in the face with iron gloves.
This competition is nothing more than a comparison of high and low, and it is just a matter of comparing who is more capable, Li Congjing took the initiative to provoke Wu Jingzhong's father and son, and everyone saw what the posture was.
After a fight, Zhang Zheng was the one at the bottom, and his face was the most unbearable, but as soon as Li Congjing made such a fuss, everyone's attention was attracted to the relationship between him and Wu Ming, and no one thought much about Zhang Zheng's failure. Zhang Zheng's eyes flickered, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook slightly, Li Congjing and Wu Ming's wine shop turmoil is now known to everyone in Weizhou, and Zhang Zheng also understands it.
"This Li Congjing is very arrogant." Zhang Zhengxin said, "But it did me a favor." ”
"Arrogant boy, how dare you be so arrogant?!" Wu Jingzhong was angry, but he couldn't shout this in public, because he didn't look very good. But he thought to himself: see how crazy you are, and let you be proud first, and see if you can still be so perverse in a few days.
Li Siyuan pulled Li Congjing and praised loudly, ignoring Wu Jingzhong's face. Jing Xinmo drank tea slowly, and no one could see his expression clearly.
When the competition was completed, Ren Yuan, who was whispered by the housekeeper, changed his face several times, and almost couldn't cry or laugh, but because he was facing away from everyone, everyone didn't see his expression. It's just that when he turned to face everyone again, his whole person seemed much more relaxed.
Ren Yuan arched his hand and smiled: "Respect father-in-law, everyone, the three test questions have gone to the second, what the result is, the three sons don't have to mind, because this third question is the key, if the third question is over, the first two questions can not be considered." ”
His words made everyone misty, and everyone's eyes were not good. According to Ren Yuan's meaning, the time spent in front of this, the feeling is that you are kidding us?
Ren Yuan couldn't say that his own daughter had run away from home suddenly, and he had to come up with such a three-question idea, so that it was clear who won and who lost, and his choice was less difficult. But now, the broken woman suddenly ran back again.
To say that it is placed in an ordinary family, the matter has come to this, after the third game, the winner can be set as a son-in-law, but Ren Yuan lost his wife in his early years, and he is particularly fond of this daughter.
As a father, he can only let his daughter, who has always doted on him, have three choices, Ren Yuan is already blaming himself, but the emperor's order is like this, he can't disobey it. On this basis, as long as the daughter can be happy and let her have the right to make her own choice, what is his grievance as a father?
Ren Yuan also knew that his move was against common sense, and hurriedly remedied: "This third question, it is simple to say, the little girl has been waiting in the hall for a long time, and the three sons went to see each other, with the previous two questions as the basis, where is the meaning of the little girl, the matter is decided." ”
Ren Yuan's voice fell, and each family reacted differently.
Wu Jingzhong's father and son and Zhang Xian's father and son were happy, because their two families fell behind in the previous competition and lost to Li Congjing. Li Siyuan was a little unhappy at that time, which meant that the advantages established by Li Congjing were gone, but Li Congjing had no expression.
From the bottom of his heart, he didn't care too much.
However, if he was really not selected, or he was not favored by other people's little ladies, Li Congjing felt that he really had no face!
At this time, he couldn't help but think of the little lady with a lily bun he met two days ago, and said in his heart: Let the old lady inquire in two days, whose daughter is that little lady - beautiful, fresh, looks knowledgeable, and wants to marry, that little lady is a good choice.
This is also the best of the limited options.
Thoughts flew all the way, and Li Congjing and the others returned to the original living room with Ren Yuan.
According to the previous seat, everyone saw that the little lady in the curtain was still sitting there.
Zhang Zhengmu does not squint, takes care of his own identity, and adheres to the principle of not seeing and not listening to a gentleman's incivility; Wu Ming saw Zhang Zheng's Qinggao, his eyes showed a trace of disdain, he secretly scolded stupidly, and smiled at the little lady in the curtain; Li Congjing glanced over the curtain.
This glance made Li Congjing's brows furrow.
The person behind the curtain, although he was still wearing a veil and was still dressed like before, Li Congjing obviously noticed something unusual, and it felt like a different person.
Through the curtain, Li Congjing couldn't see it at a glance, and it was not easy to stare at others. But the eyes of a person with good archery skills must be good, which is the same as the sniper's good eyes, so he found something unusual, he didn't know if Wu Ming found it, after all, through the curtain and the scarf, maybe Wu Ming patronized the dress. But Li Congjing clearly felt that when he looked over, the little lady was also looking at him, and her eyes were blazing.
"Probably hallucinations." Li Congjing said secretly when he retracted his gaze, thought about it, and felt that it was wrong, "I have always believed in myself, and I believe in myself all the time, since I just feel that something is wrong, then there must be a problem." ”
Look at Ren Yuan. Ren Yuan's demeanor is appropriate, but it seems to be a little different...... didn't hold back, Li Congjing glanced into the curtain again, this time he did it deliberately, different from the previous casual glance, this time he saw it clearly, and he couldn't help but be surprised.
Why is it so much like the little lady of the Lily Bun Ren family before?!
"It just doesn't make sense!" Li Congjing felt that he might really be hallucinating, could it be that he just wanted the marriage partner to be the little lady, so he had a hallucination? This demon came too quickly......
Wu Ming noticed that Li Congjing was glancing at the curtain, and couldn't help sneering, turned over and sneered in a low voice: "Boy, it's useless to look at it all the time, you can't get it!" ”
Li Congjing turned his head and said with a face full of "surprise": "Are you sure?" ”
Wu Ming snorted coldly, his eyes showing disdain, "You can also play tricks and grab sticks, you can't do this kind of meticulous work." Look, this little lady must be mine! ”
Li Congjing was "shocked" and said, "Are you really sure? ”
Wu Ming didn't bother to say more, and dropped a sentence "We'll see!" ”
Ren Yuan got up in the main seat and said: "Ren is not talented, it is also a family of cultivation and reading, the little girl is also coarse in literature and ink, this last question, the three sons each write a poem, and hand it over to the little girl, the little girl will give a comment, and the comment will indicate her attitude, if you approve of whom, you will also explain in the comment, the three sons, please." ”
Li Congjing and the three of them got up together, and under Ren Yuan's instructions, they went to the other side of the hall, where three desks had been set up, and the three of them sat down in turn.
There is really nothing to say about writing poetry, Zhang Zheng holds his own scholarly family and is full of confidence; Wu Ming thinks that he understands women's hearts best, and his attitude is calm; It's Li Congjing, although he has a lot of books before, but they are all works of the world, and writing poetry is not his forte.
The curtain rolled in the spring breeze, and the three of them finished writing in turn. Zhang Zheng was the first to put pen to paper, Wu Ming was second, and Li Congjing was last.
After writing, the servants of Renfu handed over to the little lady behind the curtain in turn, and Li Congjing and the three returned to their original positions and sat down.
Li Siyuan asked Li Congjing with concern, "Congjing, do you have confidence in this way of writing poetry?" ”
Li Congjing smiled but did not answer.
Wu Ming was full of confidence in Wu Jingzhong's answer, and explained in a low voice: "Today's poetry is not in the literary style, but in the mind, I know the girl's heart best, although my father is relieved." ”
Zhang Zhengze said slowly: "Acceptable, acceptable." "There is a subtle and unrevealing look of confidence on his face.
Through the curtain, everyone could see it, and the little lady inside looked at the works of the three people in turn.
From time to time, a maid came out with a gift box with three pieces of rice paper on it. The maid saluted Ren Yuan and said, "The lady's comments to the three sons have been written. ”
"Leave it to the three sons." Ren Yuandao.
The maid first came to Zhang Zheng with the gift box, Zhang Zheng gave a slight salute, Shi Shiran picked up the rice paper, unfolded it, and suddenly stiffened on his face with a smile, and lost his mind for a while, so he looked incredulous.
Seeing him like this, Wu Ming almost couldn't hold back his laughter, and before taking his comment, he bowed to the curtain, and then picked up his comment unhurriedly, and the victory was in his hands.
But when he looked down, his face was suddenly wonderful, distorted for a while, and even his body couldn't help but tremble, and he even shouted regardless of the faux pas: "This ...... What's going on?! ”
Seeing his appearance, Li Congjing knew that it was okay to read his comments or not, for the sake of safety, he still looked at it, and saw a column of delicate small characters written on the rice paper: Does the son still remember the little girl he rescued by the river the day before yesterday?
It's a simple sentence, with a lot of affection.
"Sure enough, it's her." Li Congjing sighed slightly in his heart, a little happy and proud.
looked at Wu Ming again, his eyes were full of sympathy.
"Ahem!" Jing Xinmo coughed lightly twice, still in a male duck voice, "Although the comment was given to the three sons by the daughter of the Ren Mansion, since our family came by the emperor's order, this comment determines the final result, but our family can't help but look at it." The three sons are rude. ”
As he spoke, he stood up, walked up to Zhang Zheng, and stretched out his hand.
Zhang Zheng smiled bitterly and handed the rice paper to Jing Xinmo, Jing Xinmo glanced at it, and said to everyone without changing his face: "One word for comment: go." He paused and sighed lightly: "It seems that Shangshu's daughter has a very clear meaning, and Zhang Gongzi can't stay here." ”
Zhang Zheng retreated and saluted without saying a word.
Jing Xinmo walked in front of Wu Ming again, and saw that his face was ugly, and his cold hair stood erect, like an angry lion, obviously not in a good mood, but Jing Xinmo was not afraid, and said indifferently: "Wu Gongzi, please give us your comments to see." ”
"Don't look at it!" Wu Ming roared with a calm face, "Anyway, this son won't stay." Looking at Ren Yuan, he smiled cruelly: "It's just that Ren's daughter doesn't want to marry, so humiliating my Wu family, do you really think my Wu family is easy to bully?!" ”
Ren Yuan's face changed, inexplicably.
Jing Xinmo caught a glimpse of Wu Ming's comment, and then said with a smile: "It turns out that Wu Gongzi's comment is also a word, this word is ......" paused, and said meaningfully: "Get out." ”
"What?" Wu Jingzhong was furious and stared at Ren Yuan, "Ren Shangshu, what does this mean?" It's so humiliating! ”
"What do you mean, General Wu really doesn't know, or is he too old to react?" Li Siyuan stood up with a smile, feeling very happy, "The meaning is very clear, Ren Fu's daughter, she will be my Li family's daughter-in-law in the future!" ”
"You ......" Wu Jingzhong was angry.
"Ling Qianjin behaves like this, how do people think of my Wu family? Ren Shangshu really didn't give an explanation? Wu Ming said gloomily.
Jing Xinmo was about to say something, when a coquettish snort sounded, "If you want to explain, this girl will give you an explanation!" ”
Saying that, under the eyes of everyone, the little lady of the Ren family opened the curtain and walked out, first saluted in front of Jing Xinmo, and then went to Ren Yuan to make amends, then looked at Wu Ming, slowly untied the veil, and revealed her true face.
Wu Ming was stunned for a moment, and almost fell to the ground, "You...... How are you? ”
The little lady of the Ren family said coldly: "Wu Gongzi, how can you give this girl an explanation for your absurd behavior in the downtown that day, how can you give this girl an explanation today?!" ”
Wu Ming understood at this time, he didn't come to kiss today, he came to smoke.
Seeing the fiery posture of the little lady of the Ren family, Li Congjing secretly sighed: A girl with a strong temperament, she is really strong!
