"Imperial Doctor Yu?" Qiao Guan on the side frowned and thought, "Which Imperial Doctor?" ”

Zuo Shaoyang said: "I heard that he used to be the imperial physician of Emperor Gaozu. ”

"Oh, no wonder I can't remember it for a while. The old lady has already retired from the old age, and their family is not easy to deal with. ”

Zuo Shaoyang said strangely: "Not easy to entangle? What do you mean? ”

"It's nothing," Qiao Guan said lightly, "This old lady's surname is strange, he can't remember how good others treat him, and if he treats him a little badly, he will be repaid." ”

Qiao Qiao'er glared and said, "Brother! Look at what you are talking about, Brother Zuo is marrying his granddaughter, marrying someone home, and living in the Zuo family in the future, what does it matter how her grandfather is a person? Anyway, I don't have any contact. Besides, he will repay others for his eyes, could it be that he will do the same for his own family? ”

"You know what!" Qiao Guan's iron-clad face was expressionless and reprimanded, "Although we are not together, in the end, we are in-laws, since we want to go on a blind date, we naturally have to master all aspects." The eye will tell the man who he is, and nothing else! You're too young to understand anything. Don't talk about it, lest you mislead others! ”

Qiao Qiao'er listened to her brother's official reprimand, so she glared and ignored him. How did she know that her brother was very optimistic about Zuo Shaoyang, and wanted her to marry Zuo Shaoyang, and now that she heard that Zuo Shaoyang was going on a blind date, she was naturally a little anxious, so she told her about some of the problems with Imperial Doctor Yu.

Zuo Shaoyang smiled and bypassed the topic: "That's it, Brother Qiao, you first move Qiao'er over to live, and invite the painter, I guess we won't be too long, after coming back, I will draw the medicine I need with the painter, and then you take me to Zhen's Medical Center to concoct medicinal materials." However, it may take a few days to concoct the medicine, and when I come back, I will first give Qiao'er acupuncture to relieve the pain. Wait for the medicine to be prepared, and then use the medicine. What do you think? ”

"That's a good arrangement, so be it."

After saying that, Qiao Guan learned that Zuo Gui's father got up, and he still went to the door to thank him, Zuo Gui didn't have any prejudices against Qiao Guan, not to mention that he was still an official of Bapin Beijing, and he wanted to give some face, so he also invited him into the house to drink tea and talk for a while. Zuo Shaoyang told his father Zuo Gui about the treatment plan, Zuo Gui was about to go on a blind date for his son, and he was in a good mood, and without Master Qiao present, he couldn't sprinkle his anger on the two juniors. Wen Yan comforted him and asked Zuo Shaoyang to treat Qiao Qiaoer's injuries.

Qiao Qiao'er was very scared and aggrieved when she saw Zuo Gui's father angry last time, but now she listened to him speak warmly, and told her to treat herself well, she felt the warmth of her father, and under the joy, tears welled up in her eyes.

Qiao Qiao'er saw that her illness had settled, and her heart suddenly relaxed, and she took the time to ask Zuo Shaoyang: "Brother, at that time in Hezhou, can't you choose one from me and the white girl?" My father repented of his marriage, why didn't you marry Sister Bai? ”

Zuo Shaoyang smiled bitterly: "I was going to marry, but the county commander personally visited me and said that he couldn't marry." ”

"Why?"

"Because Zhi'er is a slave and maid, and our Tang law stipulates that it is not allowed to marry a slave or maid as a wife, but only a concubine. Otherwise, the board will be played and the marriage will be dissolved. ”

"And this rule?" Qiao Qiao'er is only fourteen years old, a half-old girl, and naturally she is not familiar with the regulations in this regard, "Then why don't you look for it in Hezhou?" Baba ran to the capital to go on a blind date. ”

"I also went on a blind date in Hezhou, but either I don't look down on others, or people don't look down on me, or both families are satisfied but they don't want me to take a concubine, to put it bluntly, I married a wife just to take Zhi'er and a few of them as concubines. I am not allowed to take a concubine, what should I do with a wife? ”

Qiao Qiao'er glanced at him angrily: "You! You treat other girls like this, who dares to give you your daughter? If our two families don't have the experience of Hezhou, I don't dare to marry you if I don't listen to you say this! ”

Zuo Shaoyang sneered and said: "Yes, I won't say this now, I have some skills, but I don't know what is going on with you people in the capital, and you will regret the marriage when you say it's good." ”

"I'm not from the capital, I'm from Hezhou!"

"Yes, yes! Hey hey"

"It's not all discredited people in the capital, maybe it's a coincidence, don't you still want to go on a blind date, this time it should be no problem."

"I hope so." Zuo Shaoyang said with a smile.

This blind date is also very smooth, with the sponsorship of Mrs. Qu, both of them are studying medicine, it is easy to talk about, Mrs. Yu is also very kind, as Mrs. Qu said, the daughters of the Yu family are first-class, dignified and virtuous, elegant and decent, and also commented on Zuo Shaoyang's two plagiarized poems on the spot, naturally very appreciated, took out a few of his own poems for Zuo Shaoyang to comment, Zuo Shaoyang praised two sentences, and said that it was naturally different from others, On the contrary, it made the girl feel that Zuo Shaoyang was a genius even more, and admired it even more.

The two families talked very harmoniously, and on the issue of concubines, due to the communication with the old lady Qu in advance, they also successfully reached an agreement and agreed to take concubines in the future.

Since both parties are very satisfied, immediately make an engagement, Zuo Gui is prepared to go this time, with the matchmaker with the dowry, immediately by the matchmaker to put together the eight characters, naturally there is no problem, immediately hired, the other party wants a bit of a dowry, to eighty, fortunately, Zuo Gui's father has already prepared, discussed with the old lady Qu in advance, and borrowed fifty taels of silver from the old lady Qu to prepare, and immediately took out the next appointment, the other party saw that the Zuo family was so refreshing, and did not even bargain, and was very happy, and immediately finalized the wedding date.

After some twists and turns in this matter, Zuo Gui's father proposed that it was better to choose a son than to bump into a son, and immediately wanted to marry the girl of the Yu family, pass through the door first, and then worship heaven and earth to get married, which frightened the other party. In such a hurry, the old lady naturally disagreed. Zuo Gui's father insisted on refusing to give in, and was naturally frightened by the previous two repentances. After Mrs. Qu explained, she told Zuo Gui's father that the Yu family would never regret it.

Zuo Gui's father still disagreed, insisted on marrying immediately, even if the Zuo family passed the door, there was no way to repent of the marriage, which made everyone a little unhappy, and in the end, the old lady was reasonable, wrote the marriage book, and vowed not to repent of the marriage, otherwise he was willing to bear all the guilt of repentance.

Zuo Gui's father still muttered unhappily with the marriage book, and after the old lady Qu patted his chest on the side and promised that the Yu family would never regret the marriage, Zuo Gui's father reluctantly agreed to give the Yu family a few days to prepare for the kiss.

Flip through the yellow calendar, after the four days is a good son to marry, the two families agreed to marry after the four days, and return directly to Hezhou to worship and marry.

After the negotiation was completed, the Zuo family said goodbye and left, on the way, Zuo Gui's father was still not at ease, and asked Zuo Shaoyang: "Zhong'er, you said, this time this marriage will not be yellow again, right?" ”

Zuo Shaoyang smiled: "It's hard to say." ”

"Huh?"

"What does my father think is the reason why the woman's family regretted the marriage after the first two times?"

"Hey! The people of the capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, regard our Hezhou as the countryside, think they are superior, and don't take us seriously, so they go back on their word and regret their marriage at will! ”

Zuo Shaoyang shook his head lightly: "If they hadn't thought about it, they shouldn't have agreed so happily to let us marry." And agreed, and waited for the door to come back to regret it, by no means thinking that the people of the capital were superior to others and tossing people blindly to play so simple! ”

Zuo Gui's father said curiously: "Then what do you think they are crazy about?" ”

"I looked closely, and the remorse of these two families seemed to have something unspeakable, but they didn't dare to say it, instead of deliberately playing with us. If it is a wishful trick, it will not apologize or even compensate for the loss later, so it is time to continue to play. ”

Zuo Gui's father nodded frequently: "Well, it makes sense." Then why do you say they regretted their marriage? ”

"I don't know, and it is precisely because of this that this marriage with the Yu family is worried that it will repeat the mistakes of the past."

Zuo Gui's father was taken aback: "Are you saying that their Yu family may also regret their marriage?" ――They all wrote marriage letters, and the old lady Yu is an official from the sixth grade, so he shouldn't be discredited, right? ”

"I'm afraid that the reason why they will regret their marriage is that they can't resist it! I'd rather self-destruct my promise than not regret my marriage! ”

Zuo Gui's father was a little dumbfounded: "Won't it?" We are just a pharmacy in Hezhou, and the capital is full of high-ranking officials and dignitaries, why do you want to target our family? ”

"I just don't know why, alas! It would be nice if my brother Xiao was here, and ask him to help find out why those two families regretted it, but unfortunately they couldn't contact him along the way, and the temples near the capital didn't even have news of him. A few days ago, we walked around the capital, also went to the temple, and asked, but no one knew him. ”

Zuo Gui's father said with a gloomy face: "I don't care what his reason is for Imperial Doctor, and I don't care what his hardships are, anyway, I am married to the daughter-in-law of the Yu family!" If he repents, we'll see you in court! He has already accepted the dowry and issued the marriage letter, hehe, this daughter-in-law is already our Zuo family! I put up with the anger of the Gao family and the Li family, this time, I definitely can't bear it! Don't try to bully us rednecks! ”

Zuo Shaoyang was also a little indignant when he saw that his father looked angry, but he always had a hunch that this time, I am afraid that there will be trouble again.

Back at the inn, Qiao Guan waited at the door of the inn downstairs, and as soon as he saw Zuo Shaoyang, he immediately greeted him and said, "Zuo Gongzi, is the blind date over?" What do you think? ”

Zuo Shaoyang smiled: "That's it, the dowry is down, the marriage book is also down, and I will marry in four days, and go directly to the state." ”

Qiao Guan was very deflated, but his face was still ironclad, since the marriage had been decided, there was no way, and said: "What about the injury of the sister?" Is it possible to get married in the capital and then live for a while? We take care of all the costs! ”

Zuo Shaoyang looked at his father Zuo Gui.

Zuo Gui's father laughed coldly: "I'm sorry, we came to the capital to marry a daughter-in-law on a blind date, since the daughter-in-law has been married, we have no interest in staying in the capital any longer, and we will go to the state when we receive the daughter-in-law, and the Qiao'er girl's illness will be treated, so we will go to Hezhou, otherwise, we can only ask Gao Ming." ”

After that, Zuo Gui's father went back to the inn with his hands behind his back.
