Counting from several counties within a radius, Chenjiazhuang is not small, but it is not comparable to the scale of Changjiazhai, fortunately, the Chen family is also a generation of cultivation, there are not a few officials who have been Confucian, even President Yuan has the Chen family as a section chief, the emperor is gone, the Chang family suddenly has a sense of decline, and the Chen family has the spirit of an upstart, and it is not to blame people for such a spirit, if President Yuan Da sits in the dragon court and becomes the emperor, this Chen family can be regarded as a hero of the new dynasty.

Chang Zhenbang came to the door of Chen's house, and did not dismount, but just shook the whip in his hand, and smashed it on the black gate that had been wiped many times in the morning.

"Who, do you know that this is the Chen family in Wenxian County? There are rules, no! ”

The porter heard the sound of slamming the door, opened the small door angrily, and said uncleanly, and a whip shadow struck coldly, so frightened that he hurriedly hugged his head, hid to the side, and secretly looked at the visitors with his eyes. Looking at a talent, he also studied in the East, but such a character is also worthy of his own miss, but unfortunately he heard that he was crazy, and now it seems that he is really crazy, how can his father-in-law be so arrogant in the future?

"Open the door, I have something important to tell Master Chen!"

Chang Zhenbang smiled slightly, it was not ugly to laugh, but the whip in his hand was not idle when he laughed, and he took turns to hit the porter, although he missed two times out of ten, but it also scared the porters to cry wolf, and after opening the door, they hugged their heads and ran away.

Chang Zhenbang rushed in, bypassed the shadow back wall, and rushed into the Chen family hall. Along the way, the chickens and dogs jumped, so shocked that Master Chen thought that the bandits had come in, and he was ready to pack up and flee for his life, if it wasn't for the subordinates who came in to explain the reason, Master Chen would have entered the tunnel with a disgraced face, and listened, he was really angry, and then angrily led a group of subordinates to block Chang Zhenbang at the door of the hall.

Chang Zhenbang swept past Master Chen with a smile, then stood on his horse and said with both hands: "Father-in-law is above, forgive the son-in-law for not being able to give full salutes when he is in armor." Atonement for sins, are you still healthy in old age? ”

As soon as Master Chen heard this, his eyes were red, and he was angry, and he said in his heart that with a son-in-law like you, who is healthy? However, he is also a person who has seen the scene, and said: "This old bone has not been scared to death by you, but the words of father-in-law should be said later!" It's too early to tell! ”

Chang Zhenbang smiled and said: "Although it is too early to call a father-in-law and a virtuous son-in-law, it is also reasonable, and in a few days, I am afraid that it will not even be reasonable!" ”

Master Chen was stunned for a moment, his face moved his muscles, he didn't say anything, but his heart was like boiling water, turning over, and his heart said Could it be that this kid already knows that I want to withdraw from the marriage and regret the marriage? It should be like this, otherwise I wouldn't have entered my Chen family hall on horseback, but this matter is not clear, it is you who are here, what is my Chen family afraid of, I just can't find an excuse to regret marriage, you kid will send it to the door, if you want to blame it, blame Ni himself, who made you a madman!

Thinking of this, Master Chen smiled gloomily and said: "My Chen family and the Chang family have been better for generations, and they have also set a good relationship with the virtuous nephew for Qin and Jin. You have madness, I don't blame you for being an uncle, but my Chen family can't be so underestimated! Someone will take Chang Zhenbang for me, and by the way, inform Mr. Chang to come and get someone! ”

With Master Chen's order, the people around him rolled up their sleeves and surrounded Chang Zhenbang.

Chang Zhenbang smiled, kicked his legs, and rode into the Chen family hall.

This Chen family hall is as spacious as the courtyard outside, of course, it is not as good as the threshing floor, but it is not small, as long as it does not run enough Chang Zhenbang to cross the horse, but this has always been the place where the Chen family specially receives and entertains guests, the decoration is magnificent, noble and elegant, precious antiques, fine calligraphy and painting are not a few, if it is really here to make trouble, it affects the pond fish, it is estimated that Chen Lao even has the heart to die.

"As long as you can stop me from dismounting, I'll take my hands down!"

Chang Zhenbang shook the reins after speaking, and the black steed man stood up, his two front hooves were like black amber, and the mahogany table and chair were easily smashed by it.

"You ......"

After Master Chen talked about you for a long time, he took a breath, his body became a lot stiffer for a moment, and his tone was much gentler, saying that it was gentle was actually no different from begging, and said: "Virtuous son-in-law, there is something to say!" There's something to say! ”

Chang Zhenbang looked down at Master Chen, and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes: "Where is Uncle Chen, father-in-law's words should be said later!" It's too early to tell! Chang Chen's two families have been cultivating and reading for generations, they can't be so ruleless! ”

Master Chen was waiting for Chang Zhenbang, and he couldn't wait to eat this dog offal in one bite, he is also worthy of the rules? Is this something that a person with rules can do by riding a horse into the hall?

"The little nephew is a madman, he really wronged Ling Ai, even if there is no marriage contract, I and Xiuli also have a childhood sweetheart brother and sister friendship, I also hope that she can have a good life, and I am willing to regret the marriage for the sake of Xiuli's sister and nephew!"

"What?"

Master Chen was stunned, the problem that had plagued him for a long time was not expected to be solved like this, but not only was he not happy, but there was a faint sadness of loss, the guy in front of him was also he grew up watching since he was a child, nothing bad, but it was a pity that he was crazy after returning to China, as a son-in-law like his father, he really wanted it, but as an uncle, he also hoped that there would be a successor to the Chang family, Chang Zhenbang did not say that Guangzong Yaozu could also be a healthy young master.

"People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless!" Chang Zhenbang said lightly: "The beautiful girl is not small, uncle will arrange a good family for her!" I'll negotiate with my father! ”

"Hey! You're a good boy! Really, Uncle knows that Xiuli is not worthy of you, and her life is not good! I will definitely buy the firecrackers in Quanquan County to disperse bad luck for my nephew! Master Chen sighed and said.

In this small place in Wenxian County, there is a saying that the bad luck is to disperse the bad luck, how big the bad luck is to put how big the firecrackers, such bad luck as the divorce, others are okay to say, but for a madman like Chang Zhenbang, it is a big bad luck, without the marriage contract of his youth, what else can he find? Ordinary people don't want their children to marry crazy people!

Master Chen was very sad and sad for Master Chang, but it was a lifelong event for his daughter, and he couldn't help being sentimental, the only thing he could do was to buy more firecrackers.

The document of divorce is faster than the engagement agreement, maybe it has been prepared a long time ago, Chang Zhenbang leaned over and took the brush with a big stroke, and even the horse did not get off, after signing, the old man of the Chen family still wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say, he wanted to leave him for dinner, but there was no atmosphere.

had to wave his hand, let people disperse, opened the door, and personally sent Chang Zhenbang out.

"After the Chen family's uncle bought the firecrackers, please be sure to notify the little nephew to let people move in, it's a little embarrassing, and it will only pass after a long time!"

"For the sake of Chang Chen's two families, I can only grieve my nephew! Brother Chang, where I will be guilty! ”

"Chang Chen's two families are the friendship of the father's generation and the son's generation, so don't say anything about the uncle."

"I'm ashamed!"

Out of the gate of Chen's house, he didn't go far, Chang Zhenbang turned his horse's head and rushed back.

Master Chen was afraid that he would change his attention, so he hurriedly asked: "The divorce has been overcome, what else does the virtuous nephew have to say?" ”

Chang Zhenbang said: "The emperor is gone, the troubled times will rise, Chang Chen and the two families have been good for generations, and they are in the same breath, one day, if my Chang family encounters bandits, I hope Uncle Chen can see today's situation and help a bunch!" ”

Master Chen said: "What is the virtuous nephew talking about, the Chang Chen family is in the same breath, the generation is good, relying on this friendship I don't know how many bandits have been repelled, if the Chang family is in trouble, my Chen family can't stand by!" It's good to rest assured! ”

Chang Zhenbang arched his hand and said: "With the words of the uncle, Zhenbang's heart will be put in the stomach, it will be windy and rainy outside, the uncle should go home, and the little nephew will leave." With that, the crotch dismounted and neighed, and he threw his hooves and rushed out.

Master Chen looked at Chang Zhenbang's figure, shook his head and said, "Brother Chang, why are you doing this?" Even if you don't break the marriage contract, if there is a bandit, you and I will still fight each other, and we will be in the same spirit! It's just that the emperor is gone, President Yuan Da has ascended the throne, and it should be my Chen family's turn to lead these ten villages and eight townships! ”

"Someone!"

Master Chen yelled for no reason, and the Chen family came out one after another, standing in front of Master Chen.

"No matter how much money you spend, buy me all the firecrackers from Wenxian County and several surrounding counties! The old Chang family is benevolent and righteous, and our old Chen family can't lose their share! ”

"What!" When Mrs. Chen heard this, she almost wondered if there was something wrong with her ears, and how much silver did it cost to buy so many firecrackers?

Master Chen looked at his wife with a gloomy face, what did she think, how could she hide it from the pillow person for decades, and said, "What? Do you think our beauty is not as good as these artillery battles? ”

"The Chang family's benevolence and righteousness are true, but the Chen family's money is not blown by the wind, is it? It's not like I'm reluctant to give up that little money! Our Xiuli's character is one of the best in this Wen County, not to mention, but the knowledge of the university is incomparable to other girls, it stands to reason that Zhenbang took the initiative to withdraw from the marriage, which made it beautiful, and also fulfilled the face of our Chen family, but it is not good to be so ostentatious! What do you make the Chang family think? Isn't this a slap in the face of Chi Guoguo? Our old Chen family can't do this! ”

Master Chen shook his head, picked up the small teapot placed beside him, took a sip gently, held it in his throat, and swallowed it after it was slowly moisturized, and said beautifully: "What do you know about a woman?" Do you think Zhenbang wants to get out of the marriage? Would you be replaced? It's not arranged by Brother Chang! When there was an emperor, Brother Chang led the common royal bandits in ten villages and eight townships, what a scene! Seeing that the Emperor Xuantong is gone, the decline of the Chang family is a foregone conclusion, and President Yuan Da ascends the throne, how can the leaders of these ten villages and eight townships not get out of the palm of our old Chen family, on the surface, Zhenbang is withdrawn from marriage, but in fact? It's just that Brother Chang sold it to our Chen family and served our Chen family, Zhenbang's stupid boy thought it was okay after he quit the marriage, but in fact, the last sentence was the main purpose of Brother Chang sending him today! Understand this truth, do you want to buy this firecracker! Hehe! Hey! ”

Mrs. Chen pondered for a long time, and sure enough, this is the case, but the old man did this, it was too hurtful, the Chen family has been together for a hundred years, if it hurts the harmony, it will not be good, thinking of this, she hurriedly said: "The master said that this firecracker should be bought, but it is not good to make such a big fanfare!" Be forgiving and forgiving, folks in the township, don't make trouble! ”

"What if you do?" Master Chen smiled and said: "Today, Zhenbang stepped on the Chen family, it was really majestic, and he didn't put my old Chen family in his eyes at all, if this is spread out, some people really think that my old Chen family is afraid of the old Chang family!" Hum! Before bowing his head, he made such a scene, since the old Chang family did this, my old Chen family can't show weakness! I just want to let everyone in ten miles and eight villages know that the old Chang family has served my old Chen family, and my old Chen family will be the largest household in this Wen County from today onwards! ”
