Chapter 47: Marriage
I don't know what Zhuang Yun talked to Bai Chongwen after he came out, Bai Chongwen's face was also a little heavy.
Walking up to the second elder, Dong Li followed the eyes of the old county commander and pointed at the old man Bai Chongwen, who nodded and stopped talking.
Dong Li stepped forward and whispered, Bai Chongwen shook his head and sighed, but got up and entered the room.
Zhuang Zhengde sat in the room, staring at the floor with his eyes, and didn't even hear Bai Chongwen come in.
Looking at his eldest nephew, who was a little distracted, Bai Chongwen coughed lightly and said, "Zhengde, let's talk about something." ”
"Ah, Uncle Bai, you're here, please take a seat." Zhuang Zhengde was taken aback, and hurriedly got up and pulled Bai Chongwen to sit down.
"Uncle Bai, I just told my father about this marriage event. My dad doesn't quite agree with him, so I want to ask you for an idea. You see......"
Staring at Zhuang Zhengde for a long time, Bai Chongwen found that there was a trace of blood-red aura wrapped in the eldest nephew's life, frowned and thought about it, Bai Chongwen said in a deep voice, "You can tell me Xiaoyue and your birthday, and I will calculate it." ”
Zhuang Zhengde didn't dare to slack off, so he ran to find a pen and paper and wrote it down on paper seriously and handed it to Bai Chongwen.
took out three copper coins from his arms, Bai Chongwen rubbed them in his hands and threw them on the table six times, with words in his mouth. Zhuang Zhengde stared at it for a long time, only knowing that this was the I Ching gossip, and he had seen fortune tellers use it before, but he didn't understand the mystery of the copper coins thrown out.
While looking at the hexagram thrown out of the copper coin, Bai Chongwen's brows furrowed even deeper.
Looking at Bai Chongwen's expression, Zhuang Zhengde was a little anxious, but it was difficult to open his mouth to rush away.
After a long time, Bai Chongwen pinched his fingers for a long time, straightened out his thoughts and muttered, "Zhengde, I'll calculate just now." According to my meaning, it is better for you to think about it again, and you can take the opportunity to get married in August next year, but now is indeed not the time. ”
"My old man is seeking truth from facts, not trying to coax you. Since you're going to have a plan, let's come up with a foolproof solution. I'll tell your dad that he just can't wipe his face for a while. From this hexagram combined with the eight characters, I can also see that this girl is from a bitter background, you don't have to worry, the time for this marriage has not come, and you can't force it. ”
After listening to Bai Chongwen's words, Zhuang Zhengde was a little discouraged. This man has been brought back, but how is it good?
"Call the girl in the evening, and I'll take a closer look. You don't have to worry, I'll do this bad guy. Your father and I are all for your good, don't think about it yourself. Bai Chongwen had already seen Zhuang Zhengde's concerns, and hurriedly spoke out to persuade him.
The matter has come to this point, and Zhuang Zhengde has no choice but to admit it, but he has not been able to turn the corner for a while. Looking at his thoughtful eldest nephew, Bai Chongwen didn't bother, gently patted Zhuang Zhengde on the shoulder and walked out.
Sitting on the chair weakly, Zhuang Zhengde wanted to cry without tears, and didn't understand why Bai Chongwen would say this.
Seeing Bai Chongwen's solemn expression just now, how could Zhuang Zhengde not feel that it was not just a matter of eight characters, but if there were really other things, Zhuang Zhengde couldn't understand the crux of it.
"Resign yourself to fate, I just hope Satsuki doesn't blame me."
When it was almost evening, Zhuang Zhengde was full of worries and his face was heavy, and he slowly walked on the way to the inn.
Today's situation is completely unexpected by Zhuang Zhengde, and this reaction from the old county commander is what Zhuang Zhengde has expected. didn't expect that Old Man Bai Chongwen's calculation would be such a result, and Zhuang Zhengde didn't know how to explain to Xiaoyue at all.
In the evening, Zhuang Zhengde came to Qinhuang Inn.
When he saw Xiaoyue and Gray Xiaoshu, Zhuang Zhengde barely squeezed out a smile. Xiao Yue saw it in her eyes, and she knew it in her heart, stepped forward and hugged Zhuang Zhengde, and said, "Zhengde, I know what my background is." You don't need to be embarrassed, if your father doesn't agree, then I'll go back to Taizhou first. ”
Smiling bitterly, Zhuang Zhengde shook his head and said, "My father didn't refuse this matter, maybe it will take time to run in." Let's not worry, since we're here, we'll see my dad and others in the evening. ”
Xiao Yue and Gray Xiaoshu glanced at each other, in fact, when the two chatted together in the afternoon, Xiao Yue expressed her concerns about coming to Qinhuang this time. But since he has come, and he is determined to marry Zhuang Zhengde, no matter what difficulties and obstacles he has to face bravely.
Looking at Xiaoyue's resolute expression, Zhuang Zhengde was very moved in his heart. Waiting for Xiaoyue and Gray Xiaoshu to clean up, Zhuang Zhengde took the two of them to the county office.
Xie Cong and Dong Li went out early in the afternoon to do some shopping, and were helping the old cook of the county government in the back kitchen. After all, tonight is the first time that Zhuang Zhengde has brought the girl back to meet the elders in the family, and it is still more grand.
In the courtyard, Zhuang Yun and Bai Chongwen were sitting and drinking tea in the courtyard. Looking at the three people who came in outside the door, Zhuang Yun was still a little uncontrollable happy, looked at the two girls who followed Zhuang Zhengde with a smile, and got up with a smile to welcome a few people in.
When the little boy Yan Sihai saw the two beautiful sisters, he also hurriedly ran to him and tilted his head and said with a smile, "The two sisters are so good-looking." ”
The first time she came to such a solemn occasion, Xiao Yue still couldn't hide her shyness, raised her head and smiled at Yan Sihai, and hurriedly dragged the corner of her clothes and hid behind Zhuang Zhengde with her head down.
Zhuang Zhengde walked up to Zhuang Yun, turned sideways and said to Xiao Yue, "Miss Xiao Yue, this is my father Zhuang Yun, and this is Uncle Bai Chongwen that I told you." ”
"Dad, Uncle Bai, this girl is Xiaoyue, this is a friend of Taizhou Mansion, Miss Gray Xiaoshu."
Xiao Yue gave a blessing obediently, and said softly, "I've seen Master Zhuang and Uncle Bai." Gray Xiaoshu also hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted.
Smiling and nodding, Zhuang Yun invited the two girls to sit down. Although there is some mustard in his heart, Zhuang Yun has also been in the officialdom for so many years after all, and his face did not show a trace of abnormality.
Whispered a good word, Zhuang Yun still felt that this girl looked quite satisfactory.
Bai Chongwen also said hello, but he looked at Gray Xiaoshu with a strange look in his eyes. Gray Xiaoshu only felt that he was staring at his back, and sat on the stool and twisted a little restlessly.
After a while, Xie Cong and Dong Li brought out the prepared meal, and Xiao Yue saw that the two were busy with work, so they hurriedly got up to help.
Dong Li is still very satisfied with the well-behaved woman brought back by Zhuang Zhengde. looks more than enough to match his cousin, and he looks very knowledgeable, regardless of his background, Zhuang Zhengde is really a blessing from eight lifetimes to marry someone.
From time to time, Zhuang Zhengde greeted Xiaoyue with vegetables, and Zhuang Zhengde felt that these delicious meals tasted like chewing wax, and it was not a taste in his heart.
During the banquet, Bai Chongwen took the initiative to tell everyone present about the eight characters calculated today, and Xiaoyue was not embarrassed, but glanced at Zhuang Zhengde meaningfully and stopped talking.
After all, he is not a fool, Xiao Yue can still see some things, although he is a little awkward in his heart, but fortunately, Zhuang Yun did not refuse the marriage of the two. As long as there is hope, Satsuki will definitely not give up so easily.
Zhuang Yun offered to drink some wine to help the fun, and it was difficult for everyone to refuse. Zhuang Zhengde ran to the house and took out two jars of good wine, poured them for everyone, and with the wine, there was no restraint between everyone.
Worried that this Xiaoyue girl was thinking nonsense, Zhuang Yun still seriously said what he thought in front of everyone.
After all, in the event of marriage, it is not only about you and me, but also about how to live a good life for the two of you in the future. Although there are 10,000 reluctances in his heart now, Zhuang Yun understands in his heart that no one is a natural royal nobleman, and now he just can't turn a corner, which can be regarded as a test for the two young people.
If he can pass this hurdle, Zhuang Yun believes that the two children will definitely be stronger than Jin.
When the three rounds of wine were over, there was a sudden sound of shouting for help from far away, Xie Cong hurriedly ran out when he heard it, and hurriedly ran into the courtyard with an old man.
When the old farmer saw Zhuang Yun, he immediately knelt on the ground and cried and shouted, "Zhuang Lao County Order, save my son." ”
Hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, Zhuang Zhengde helped Xie Cong to help the old man to the table and sit down. Zhuang Yun patted the old man on the shoulder, "Speak slowly, what's going on?" ”
