Chapter 318: Marry Carefully
Just now, Zhao Yun and Dian Wei outside the door also heard it. Seeing Wang Xu come out, Zhao Yun instructed the maid to enter the house to help Zhao Yu clean the house, and immediately followed with a worried face. "Lord, Yu'er is with the army, I'm afraid it's not suitable, right?"
"Huh! Are you worried about the safety of the rain? Wang Xu said with a smile.
"I'm not worried about safety, with Yu'er's martial arts, there is no danger in following the army." Saying that, Zhao Yun looked at Wang Xu hesitantly, and then continued: "It's just that I'm worried about her temperament, I'm afraid it's ......."
Hearing this, Wang Xu couldn't help but wave his hand and said, "It's okay, give her a chance!" I have never seen the look on her face, and a woman may not be able to go to war, as long as she can prove herself, she can make an exception. If anything really goes wrong, just send it back immediately. And on this expedition, the spy will also send some female masters to guard Xu Shu, and Zhao Yu will follow, and there is no problem with safety. ”
Hearing this, seeing that Wang Xu had made up his mind, Zhao Yun didn't want to say more, arched his hand, and changed the topic. Chatting casually about the preparations of the army, the three of them quickly walked out of the Zhao Mansion, and because the direction of the military camp and the General's Mansion was different, they parted ways outside the mansion.
Returning to the General's Mansion, he inspected the various offices of the former mansion, chatted with everyone, and saw that there was nothing serious, so Wang Xu asked Dian Wei to find things to do casually, and he also returned to the main courtyard of the inner mansion. But as soon as I walked to the arch of the main courtyard, I happened to run into Xiaoyu holding an empty tray.
"Master, you're back!" Xiao Yu smiled sweetly.
"Hmm!" Answering with a smile, Wang Xu looked at the tray in Xiaoyu's hand and couldn't help but wonder: "What?" Are there any guests? And let you have a snack at this time? ”
"Hehe, it's not a guest, it's Madame's father who is here. We're talking in the gazebo by the pool! Xiaoyu smiled.
"Oh? Father-in-law, his old man is here? Wang Xu glanced at the pavilion in surprise, and couldn't help asking, "But what's the matter?" ”
"I don't know about this slave, but General Xu is also here." Xiaoyu replied.
Hearing this, Wang Xu thought about it before nodding and smiling: "Hmm! Okay, I got it. Go get busy! ”
"No!" A salute. Xiaoyu didn't say much, smiled softly at Wang Xu, and slowly retreated.
My father-in-law has rarely taken the initiative to come to the General's Mansion, and there must be something going on today, what will it be?
With doubts in his heart, Wang Xu walked quickly to the side of the pavilion and saw his father-in-law and mother-in-law and Xu Sheng from a distance. was even more surprised, and immediately couldn't help laughing: "The little son-in-law visits his father-in-law and mother-in-law!" ”
When the few people who were talking and laughing heard the voice, they couldn't help but turn their heads, and when they saw that it was Wang Xu, they immediately got up to greet each other: "See the young master (lord)!" ”
Instead, Xu Shu glanced at Wang Xu and said angrily: "Father." Mother, brother, there is no outsider here, don't exalt him like this! ”
"Huh! Don't waste the ceremony! Hearing this, Xu Rui frowned and said Xu Shulai reproachfully.
"Huh! Father-in-law, Xu Shu is right, there are no outsiders here. Or don't be so formal. He said. Wang Xu had already walked into the pavilion and sat next to Xu Shu with a smile.
Listen to what Wang Xu said. Xu Rui smiled slightly, did not refute it head-on, and quickly changed the topic. "Young master, don't call me father-in-law anymore, since I was a child, you have called me Uncle Xu, it sounds more affectionate."
When Xu Mu on the side heard this, she also nodded gently. "Yes, when my father-in-law and mother-in-law call me up, I always feel that there is something more different."
Wang Xu doesn't mind much about the title, anyway, Uncle Xu and Mother Xu have watched themselves grow up since they were children, and they take good care of them, which is equivalent to half a father's mother, so it doesn't matter what they call it. Seeing that both of them said this, they couldn't help but laugh and said, "Okay, then you can like it!" ”
Hearing this, Uncle Xu and Mother Xu looked at each other and smiled, and didn't say anything about it anymore, but said: "Young master, don't hide it, I brought Xu Sheng over today, there is something to discuss!" ”
"Huh! I don't know what's going on? As long as your second elder gives an order, Ziyang will definitely not slack off, so why do you need your second elder to come in person? Wang Xu asked curiously.
"That's it!" Xu Shu also interjected: "Father, mother, what is the matter?" When I asked you just now, you still won't say, you have to wait for him. ”
"Huh! This kind of thing should be discussed with the young master. As he spoke, Xu Rui shook his head before slowly looking at Xu Sheng beside him. In fact, this time it was for Xu Sheng. ”
"Wen Xiang?" "Brother?" Wang Xu and Xu Shu looked at Xu Sheng suspiciously almost at the same time.
However, Xu Sheng was stared at like this, and suddenly became a little embarrassed, embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
But Wang Xu was even more curious, and immediately asked out loud, "What's wrong?" Wen Xiang, but what did you do wrong? ”
As soon as these words came out, Xu Sheng was immediately startled, and he shook his head again and again. Xu Rui also hurriedly took over and said: "Young master, it's not for this, if he really made a mistake, I won't come." ”
At this time, Wang Xu was even more confused, hesitated, felt that he was not good at asking more, and couldn't help but glance at Xu Shu.
Of course, Xu Shu understood what he meant, and immediately gave a big roll of his eyes. But knowing that he was embarrassed, he immediately took the initiative to speak: "Father, why is that? Isn't my brother doing well lately? ”
Hearing this, Xu Rui hesitated for a moment before he slowly spoke: "Young master, that's the case, Xu Sheng is not young anymore, he is away all the year round, and he didn't leave an incense for the Xu family. ”
"Oh! Marriage! Wang Xu suddenly laughed, winked at Xu Sheng, and waved his hand: "This is a good thing, we have been wandering around together all these years, fighting in the south and the north, but we have delayed a lifelong event, and Wen Xiang should also find a sister-in-law for Xu Shu." ”
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Xu Shu suddenly pinched him.
"Oops!" The soft flesh on his waist hurt, Wang Xu couldn't help but look at Xu Shu innocently, and complained, "Why are you pinching me?" It's time for Wen Xiang to get married! But then I saw Xu Shu's eyes, thought about it, and immediately reacted. Oh! It's because this expedition has delayed the wedding date! ”
said, without waiting for the other party to answer, he immediately waved his hand and smiled: "This is simple, Wen Xiang doesn't have to go out this time, stay behind, and get married by the way!" It's a pity that I can't eat the wine, hey! ”
But when he heard this, Xu Sheng was startled, stretched out his hand, and said hurriedly: "Lord, don't!" I'm going on a campaign. As he spoke, he hurriedly pulled Xu Rui's hand. Father. Stop it. Don't marry! ”
However, Xu Rui ignored him, and said with a smile: "The young master has misunderstood. Although it is important to start a family, how can it be compared to a military event. I just want to settle down first, and after this expedition, I will choose an auspicious day to get married. ”
Hearing Xu Rui say this, Wang Xu was even more confused and thought about it. couldn't help but wonder: "Then you need me to be the matchmaker?" ”
"How dare you let the young master be a matchmaker!" Xu Rui hurriedly shook his head, seeing that Wang Xu didn't understand what he meant, he hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but remind him euphemistically: "Young master, Sheng'er is Shu'er's brother, this marriage is a big deal." I should discuss it with the young master first, otherwise I won't be able to wait for a decision! ”
These words immediately made Wang Xu understand. actually ignored this matter, Xu Sheng is Xu Shu's brother, so the person he married has a relationship with him, with his current position and influence, of course, he must be cautious.
Glancing at Xu Rui with a little gratitude, Wang Xu also slowly calmed down, but he didn't make it clear. Instead, he asked, "I don't know which girl's daughter it is?" ”
"It's the Liu family in Lingling Haoyang. The eldest daughter of Liu Xiang, the former Jiangxia Taishou. Xu Rui replied.
"Liu Xiang? Has he returned to Lingling after being forced to resign by Liu Biao? Wang Xu frowned.
"Hmmm! He's been back for more than a year. Saying that, Xu Rui had already taken the initiative to explain. These months. Because he was worried about Xu Sheng's marriage, he asked someone to introduce him, and after turning around like this, he turned to Liu Xiang. His eldest daughter is eighteen years old, beautiful in appearance, and knowledgeable in books and etiquette, we think it is good, so I have this intention. This came to discuss with the young master to see if this matter was appropriate? ”
Hearing this, Wang Xu couldn't help but think about it carefully. Including Xu Shu, they didn't bother and waited quietly.
This Liu family is a big family in Jingnan, but it was suppressed in a gentle way at the beginning, especially after Liu Xiang, the pillar of this generation, was forced away by Liu Biao, and it has declined rapidly. And at this time, Xu Rui picked a son-in-law, but just went around to him, is it really that coincidental? As the lord of Jingnan, Wang Xu had to think seriously about this issue.
After being silent for a long time, Wang Xu took a deep breath and slowly raised his head. "Uncle Xu, is that woman really good? I mean the woman herself. ”
"Hmmm! With the eyes of my many years of acquaintance, I will not be mistaken, she is a virtuous and virtuous woman. Xu Rui said with certainty, but then he shook his head with a smile: "However, if the young master thinks it's not suitable, forget it, just find another good girl." ”
In fact, Wang Xu really didn't want Xu Sheng to marry a woman from a big family, but this era is like this after all, he can't force him to marry anyone because of his own selfishness! Not to mention that Xu Sheng has been wandering with himself for many years, and life and death intersect, even if it is the kind of relationship with Uncle Xu, he can't do that.
Xu Shu knew Wang Xu very well, although his face did not show it, he could know from his eyes that he was very contradictory. But she was even more embarrassed to say anything, just gave a supportive look.
After struggling inwardly for a long time, Wang Xu finally showed a slight smile and nodded: "This family business is good, and the daughter of the Liu family is also worthy of the above direction." Since Uncle Xu and Mother Xu both think that woman is good, let's settle it like this! However, there is one point, Ziyang has to say, I hope Uncle Xu will forgive me. ”
"The young master can do whatever he wants." Xu Rui immediately replied solemnly.
"Hmm!" Nodding, Wang Xu no longer hesitated, and said with a slight smile: "Uncle Xu, Mother Xu, you have watched me grow up since I was a child, and you have the grace of teaching and nurturing me, and you are my dearest. I won't hide it from you, if you are not stable today, you will help the world in the future, Jingnan is my foundation, I definitely don't want to see Jingnan have a strong and strong existence, so that I have worries! Therefore, anyone who wants to be a member of the Liu family in the future must obtain my consent, and at least one of the direct family members must serve in my general's mansion. I don't know if Uncle Xu understands what Ziyang means? ”
Hearing this, Xu Rui didn't say a word, quickly stood up, and said hurriedly: "Don't worry, young master, Xu Rui has followed the lord for many years, and it is impossible to make wedding dresses for others. In this matter, the minister will definitely explain to the Liu family. ”
In fact, Wang Xu also really trusts Xu Rui, he is not only his father-in-law, but also his father Wang Yan's friend and courtier for decades. Watching Wang Xu grow up since he was a child, he takes good care of him, and he is honest and courteous. If even Xu Rui doesn't trust him, then there are really few people who can be trusted.
Seeing Xu Rui expressing his heart so excitedly, Wang Xu also stood up instantly: "Uncle Xu, don't be so polite. You are an elder, that's why Ziyang said so bluntly, Ziyang can't afford such a big gift, sit down! ”
It wasn't until Xu Rui slowly sat down that Wang Xu smiled slightly, turned his head to look at Xu Sheng, and admonished: "Wen Xiang, don't mention what you said today. In the future, when you marry a wife, you'd better not tell her about it, you know? ”
Xu Sheng didn't say a word, and immediately firmly bowed his hand and said: "The military affairs, the last general will never say much, with the head of the head of the item, the lord can rest assured." ”
"Hmmm! That's good. Nodding with satisfaction, seeing that the atmosphere at the moment was a little heavy because of the topic just now, Wang Xu couldn't help but smile and said: "Okay, let's not talk about these things, the family finally got together today, Uncle Xu and Mother Xu are here, so it's better to eat here!" I haven't had a few drinks with Uncle Xu for some days. ”
"Huh! All right! Xu Rui did not refuse, and nodded with a smile.
"This ...... I also want to go to the barracks. Xu Sheng hesitated a little.
Seeing this, Wang Xu immediately waved his hand. "Huh! All the generals are in the barracks, and it is okay to relax once in a while. Happy today, have a drink with me! Besides, Xu Shu rarely reunites with you on weekdays, and you, as an elder brother, didn't say that you cared about it! Look at Zhao Yun and Zhao Feng, how good they are to Zhao Yu. ”
Hearing this, Xu Shu also smiled and said, "That's it!" On weekdays, I was bullied by him, and my brother didn't say anything about standing up and saying a word. ”
"This ...... All right! Xu Sheng couldn't shirk it, so he could only nod. But then he smiled bitterly and said, "Sister, it's not that I don't love you, I don't dare!" Besides, I haven't seen the lord bully you, but you often bully the lord, this Jingnan, you are the only one who has the courage! ”
"Hahahaha......" Hearing Xu Sheng's words, everyone couldn't stop laughing.
Only Xu Shu's face was flushed with anger, and she glared at Xu Sheng fiercely...... (To be continued, if you want to know what happens, please log in to the http://www.biquge.info.)
