Chapter 214: Cai Yong marries a daughter
Lu Zhi secretly stabbed Cai Yong and secretly teased: "Uncle, Ling Qianjin is also sixteen years old, why hasn't she been out of the cabinet yet?" If it drags on any longer, I'm afraid that rumors will spread all over Jiaozhou! ”
Cai Yong glanced at him, sighed secretly, and said, "Alas, who said it wasn't? As soon as this equinox passed, he would be seventeen years old... But..."
"But?" Lu Zhi raised his eyebrows. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Cai Yong glanced at his lips and signaled that there were many people around. Then he put his wooden card in his sleeve and whispered: "Zigan might as well go to my house, I won't tell you, I've also had a headache these days." With that, he bowed slightly to everyone in the hall and walked out first.
"This Cai Bo... There are women like this, and they still have headaches, hey! It's really a blessing in the midst of blessings, and I don't know how to be blessed Lu Zhi said secretly and said goodbye to everyone.
Half an hour later, Lu Zhi got off the horse. Familiarly touched Cai Yong's study, and asked bluntly: "Brother Bo, is the rumor true?" ”
Cai Yong didn't answer in a hurry, but poured two cups of fragrant tea with a helpless face, and asked him to sit down before sighing: "Since even you know, do you say it's true or false?" ”
"So, Ling Qianjin is reluctant to leave the cabinet for a long time, just to emulate Wang Xiaozi's wife? But my sons and daughters of China, how can there be a peach and plum after the year, and then go out of the cabinet after the year is over..."Lu Zhi was puzzled, but halfway through the words, he replied to himself: "There really is..."
Cai Yong hurriedly said: "Wang Xiaozi and his wife are just making up for it!" ”
"Well, that's..."Lu Zhi glanced at him and comforted, "Now that it's over, Brother Bo will let it be." Perhaps, there are people like Wang Xiaozi who will come to marry Zhao Ji. ”
"Alas..."Cai Yong sighed heavily and took a sip of tea. Looking out the window, he said, "What else?" ”
Seeing that the other party didn't hear the meaning of his words, Lu Zhi secretly scolded him for being confused, and smacked his lips: "Cai Bojiao, Cai Bojiao, don't you really think that someone is like Wang Xiaozi?" ”
Hearing this, Cai Yong blew his beard and glared, "Then what are you talking about... Entertain me?! ”
"Confused!" Lu Zhi shook his head, pointed at him and said, "Let me ask you, how old is Mrs. Wang Xiaozi?" ”
"One in thirty."
"Do you have children?"
"None."
"Does the boy have a concubine?"
"None."
"Isn't that it?"
Cai Yong was stunned for a moment, repeating these questions in his mouth, and constantly reflecting in his mind. After a while, his eyes lit up and he exclaimed: "Yes, this Wang boy has passed away, and his wife is one in thirty, and the probability of giving birth to an heir is very low." I'm afraid it won't be long before I consider taking a concubine. ”
"Yes!" Lu Zhi stroked his beard, looked up at him, and before he could laugh, he heard him say again: "But at that time, the little girl was also old, how could Wang Xiaozi look down on Zhao Ji." ”
These words made Lu Zhi so angry that he was half dead, and the original laughter was stuck in his throat, and he almost couldn't catch his breath, and scolded: "Cai Bojiao! Wang Boy only chooses more than 20 women, don't you know? ”
"What! And what's going on? Cai Yong inhaled and said, "Who said that? ”
Lu Zhi drank tea, and he didn't want to go back to him: "A few years ago, the Cai family and the Kuai family of the Jingzhou clan, the Qiao family and the Bu family of Yangzhou, as well as the Lu family and the Gu family of Jiaozhou, all went to the gate of the prince's mansion and wanted to marry their daughter to him. ”
"And then?" Cai Yong subconsciously asked urgently, and the teacup in his hand became tighter and tighter, as if he really regarded Wang Yifan as his son-in-law.
"And then?" Lu Zhi pushed the empty cup in front of him, and waited for Cai Yong to fill it before he said heavily: "Naturally, they all go home empty-handed!" ”
"The rumor that the boy only marries women over the age of twenty is..."
"Oh, it came from the Qiao family and the Bu family in Yangzhou."
"Joe's... Bu clan..."Cai Yongnian repeated, he has been on the run in Jiangnan for more than ten years, and he still knows a little about these families. Therefore, they were also very aware of the gap between each other, and couldn't help but say bitterly: "Isn't that Zhao Ji even more hopeless..."
"No!" Lu Zhi pointed to the table with his hand, and said a word: "Ling Qianjin is sixteen years old this year, and she will be seventeen after the spring equinox, ha... and counts sixteen, but the second daughter of the Qiao family is only twelve, and the little daughter of the Bu family is only seven years old. Hopeless? ”
"Uh..." Cai Yong nodded in astonishment, and secretly said happily: It makes sense! What's more, Zhao Ji has always been by Mrs. Wang Xiaozi's side, and she has long been familiar with Wang Xiaozi and his wife, and she has been going back and forth... Maybe there's a chance!
So, while the popularity of several major families had not subsided, Cai Yong also knocked on the gate of the palace with his daughter's eight characters.
Speaking of which, at the end of the Han Dynasty, when there were two meals a day, eating lunch was also a special feature of the dignified Jiaozhou pastor. Not only that, but the governor of Jiaozhou does not talk about the slightest table etiquette, and any civil and military officer comes to the door, as long as he asks him if he says he has not eaten, he will be pulled over. And this Cai Yan, who has been following Tang Yun for a long time, seems to have taken "eating lunch" as a matter of course.
When Cai Yong arrived, the three of them had already eaten almost enough. And Wang Yifan, who doesn't go home much, is responsible for cleaning up, and he said: "The division of labor is clear." "As the son of a fast-food restaurant owner, it couldn't be easier to clean the table, and it was in his own home, and it didn't matter if he was a state pastor or not. But for Cai Yan, it was another novel experience.
Seeing his father, Cai Yan got up from the banquet and saluted: "Father..."
Tang Yunchu also got up and yawned slightly, only Wang Yifan looked up at him, and asked with a smile while continuing to wipe the table: "Mr. Cai has something to do with me?" ”
"Uh..." Looking at the scene in front of him, Cai Yong was stunned, and then his heart was ecstatic. Le He arched his hand: "The lord is really a wonderful person!" ”
"Hehe... Before coming to the South China Sea, the boy was also a common man, so why can't he do it? Before the words fell, he cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the table, let the subordinates on the side take over, and walked out around the table and said, "Mr. Cai has something, let's go to the study to talk in detail." ”
"Hehe..."Cai Yong smiled and bowed his head.
Half a moment later, Wang Yifan looked at a square piece of paper and said suspiciously: "Mr. Cai, this is..."
Cai Yong replied: "This is the little girl's birthday. ”
"Birthday?" Wang Yifan was a little confused, but he understood the role of the eight characters of birth in this era. Therefore, after listening to what Cai Yong said, he only felt that the thin piece of paper in his hand suddenly became three points heavier, "Cai Gong, this..."
To be honest, Cai Yong was a little nervous at this time, but for the sake of his daughter's happiness, he gave up. "Hehe, the old man heard that there have been many wealthy families who have come to the door recently. Yong Bucai also wants to find a marriage for the little girl. ”
Wang Yifan was stunned when he heard this, and said with a wry smile: "But the kid already has a wife..."
Cai Yong stroked his beard and persuaded: "Linggong still has three wives. With the talent of the lord, there is no need for three wives. ”
"But..."
