Text Chapter 118: Being Blind Date
Forced to be helpless, Zhou Mengyuan had no choice but to ride the big green horse with Sisi, and followed her father and others to her house.
At the doorstep. Sisi raised her right foot and jumped off the horse with a whizz, and then helped Zhou Mengyuan down, and couldn't wait to introduce them one by one.
"His name is Zhou Mengyuan, and he is from Huaxia. In order to realize the long-cherished wish of a monk before his death, he traveled thousands of miles to Daming Temple. This is my mayor's father..."

When Saqima was introduced, Saqima stepped forward and greeted, seemingly politely shaking hands, but the hand was so hard that Zhou Mengyuan almost didn't scream in pain.
Zhou Mengyuan didn't understand what it meant, this handshake may be to leave a memory for himself, maybe it is a warning, be careful in everything.
Zhou Mengyuan pretended to be very arrogant, everything didn't matter, one was paralyzing everyone, and the other was trying to make Teng Erda annoy, it was best to hate him so much that he got out of anger.
Living room. When Zhou Mengyuan's curious eyes saw the Chinese-style display cabinet and the bronze sheep's hammer, he couldn't help but exclaim: "How can the traditional furniture and rare things of our famous clan be here?"
"Oh oh!" Mayor Teng Erda touched his beard and didn't know how to answer for a while, "Yes... It was purchased from a long-distance trafficker. Do you think it's weird?"
"No, no!" Zhou Mengyuan went straight over and gently touched the sheep's pick, "This is a treasure that only our hometown has." It is from the Zhou Dynasty, very small in quantity, and priceless. โ
"Brother Mengyuan, if you like it, it's yours now. Sisi came over and grabbed Zhou Mengyuan's arm, "Anyway, it's just an ornament in our house, and the servants have to wipe it every day." โ
Teng Erda stole a glance at Sisi, but pretended not to see it.
"Oh! no! I didn't mean that. Zhou Mengyuan tried his best to relax, not revealing a single clue so that anyone present could see through his disguise, "This kind of thing, if I pay a little attention, I can still find a few kinds of things." โ
"So, you're from the vicinity of Gu Zhouyuan?"
"Yes. The mayor of the town, who is the native of Gu Zhou, was born there, grew up there, and knows everything there. โ
"Haha!" Teng Erda listened and became happy, "Come on, come on, young man, sit next to the fire pit, let's talk slowly." โ
Teng Erda sent away all his henchmen, including Saqima, and chatted while eating the nuts that Si Si brought brought.
"Your Huaxia is a mysterious country. It has a long history, a large land, abundant resources, and fertile land. The people there are moral, conservative, hardworking and kind... It's a pity that the society is hereditary rule, and the rulers rarely develop the economy and change the people's livelihood with macro ideas in order to consolidate their power and interests. If you let the mayor of this town be your emperor, from state affairs to foreign affairs, from officials to ordinary people, they will all flourish with each passing day..."
Zhou Mengyuan listened attentively, and was in awe of Teng Erda in his heart.
It is a rare and commendable fact that the mayor of a small town in a remote place has such a subtle insight and broad heart, and it is really an honor for the country!
Silk came with her mother and her siblings.
After introducing them one by one as usual, an elder brother first said: "Sister, my brother is a man, I can't appreciate the same sex, the only thing that can be tested is strength." โ
The elder brother said, his knuckles crackling, and he said arrogantly: "Nanguo, you can marry my sister if you want to, but you must first defeat me." You say, is it weightlifting or judo, or wrenching?"
Zhou Mengyuan took a look, the guy was tall, broad-shouldered and round-waisted, and his face was full of meat, so he hurriedly got up and saluted: "How dare you! โ
"Hmph!" is really extraordinary, even a "hum", the pronunciation is also very profound, and the energy is initiated from the throat and spurted out of the nostrils.
stretched out his hand, grabbed Zhou Mengyuan's chest, and lifted his arm straight.
"Put it down, brother, you're so rude!"
"You little annoyance, since you don't let you compare your strength, why did you call me to do it?" the elder brother said angrily, leaving a sentence and leaving, "A man is a wolf! Not a flower!"
Although he was picked up, Zhou Mengyuan was happy in his heart. Counting Saqima, who hurt him, there were already two people who were disgusted with him.
"Brother Mengyuan, don't mind, my brother is such a person, although he is rude, he has a kind heart. You can take a seat. โ
The other elder brother also despised and left, "What can you do with fine skin and tender meat?
At this point, Zhou Mengyuan understood why his hand was painful.
A younger sister put her mouth to Sisi's ear and said, "Sister, if you don't like it, give it to me." โ
Under the ruthless blow of the two brothers, Sisi lost her claim for a while, and the words of this little sister alone were not enough to comfort.
lost all the generous, romantic and persistent personality, and turned his face to look at his mother.
Mother called Sisi aside, "Sisi, you have to understand that this person is from Huaxia, a scholar, and he must have thoughts." Human nature loves the local. Our relationship with the south of the country, you have a bottom in your heart. If one day he becomes a climate, won't he leave a hidden danger?"
Sisi understands that since she was twelve years old, she has followed her father's army to plunder several times a year, killing countless people, because of her strategy, courage and carefulness, and strong martial arts, and she is still a pioneer.
These, if Zhou Mengyuan knew about this, what would he think and do?
This dream of the red line is really annoying!
"What are you guys? Stay away. Teng Erda said, "Sisi, don't listen to their nonsense, come and sit, let's talk together." โ
"Hey!" Teng Erda's words were final.
Sisi passed happily and sat next to Zhou Mengyuan.
The mother was helpless and took the rest of the group away.
"Brother Mengyuan, you won't mind the rudeness of my two elder brothers, right?"
"Hehe..." It's hard to answer, Zhou Mengyuan just smirked.
"How could it be?" Teng Erda said, "How can a man be so stingy? What's more, your two elder brothers did it on purpose." "I pat my chest, "I promise in the name of the mayor that today, Zhou Mengyuan insists on leaving, and if your two brothers don't come forward to stop me, I will be an official for nothing." โ
Teng Erda's words reassured Sisi, but Zhou Mengyuan immediately panicked.
"Just say it. Since I was a child, my brothers have always protected me and followed me. โ
Zhou Mengyuan was silent and didn't dare to say more.
"Child!" Teng Erda said to Zhou Mengyuan, "Since you stepped into the threshold of my house, you have only been very happy when you see Yang Lian, and the rest of the time, you are depressed. Is it because I don't like Sisi in my heart, or do I don't like our place? Or is there another reason?"
"Mayor of the town, that's the case, the little one fell in love with Sisi at first sight, she is more life-saving to the little one, and she doesn't have to worry about it if she likes it. There are two things that the small ones must take the time to do. The first is that the youngest parents left a lot of money before their deaths, and the younger one wants to sell it for some silver taels; the second is that there is a blind grandmother at home, who is taken care of by her old man to grow up, and I must not be ungrateful, and I must send her to the end of my life. โ
"Okay! Filial piety! These two things, I depend on you. I'll hurry up and do it when I get back. โ
"Teng!"
Zhou Mengyuan's heart fell to the ground, and he quickly knelt down to thank him, "Thank you for the righteousness of the mayor! The little one will spare no effort to honor you as if you were your own child!"
Teng Erda said that Zhou Mengyuan was happy, and Zhou Mengyuan said that Teng Erda was excited.
The two of them have their own hearts but are like confidants, and the conversation box has been opened since then.
"Child, do you know that you have a mountain called Xiguan Mountain?"
"Yes. It is a sub-seat of Johnson. โ
"There is a Qijia village in Xiguan Mountain, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it has been a bandit for generations, and the army will be strong, and the court has no way to take it. โ
How could he be so familiar with Xiguan Mountain? Could it have something to do with the Qi family's village?
"This... The little one reads and doesn't know much about it. โ
Teng Erda was happy and poured himself a drink, "I don't know much, I'll tell you." Since ancient times, there have often been armed conflicts between the Turkic and southern countries because of problems such as resources and territory. More than 200 years ago, for the sake of harmony, the king of our country sent the abbot of Daming Temple to Daguan, in the name of exchanging Buddhism, aiming to peacefully stabilize the relationship between the two countries. A group of nearly 100 people went to Qiaoshan, encountered robbers, and only one survived. When he returned to Wolf Singing Town, he was dying, and he unfortunately left after explaining the situation. โ
Is what Teng Erda said true? How is it so different from what the abbot said?
Who, exactly, is lying?
Zhou Mengyuan was puzzled.
"Why, don't you believe it?" Seeing that Zhou Mengyuan was deep in thought, Teng Erda covered his heart with his hand and said, "I swear in the name of the mayor that all telling, respect historical records, if there is half a lie..."
"Don't talk about it, Mayor! On behalf of Huaxia, I would like to apologize to the abbot of Daguan and all the victims! May their souls rest in eternal peace in heaven!"
Teng Erda nodded and said, "Famous Heroic Souls, I hope they rest in peace!" Kind child! According to your personality and talent, you can ascend to the throne of the emperor of your country and dominate China. The mayor of this town is willing to send troops and do his best to assist. Would you like to?"
Zhou Mengyuan was shocked, knelt up, and nodded his forehead to the ground, "Please be cautious to the mayor of the town! A small grass man, who reads thousands of books, only wants to have rice for three meals a day, sleeps at night and has a quilt, is healthy, has a safe life, and has never thought of anything else." If this word spreads, the Nine Clans will be exterminated for the crime of deceiving the king!"
"Haha! is worthy of a weak scholar. A joke, look at what scares you into. You have to understand that the emperor is also a human being, and the emperor also farts. Haha..."
"Father, you're drunk. Let's go back to our room and rest. โ
Sisi said, pulled up Zhou Mengyuan and went to his room.
"I'm not drunk! When have I ever been drunk. Teng Erda said angrily, "Let that kid come back!" โ
