Chapter 27, Wu Guotai looks at his son-in-law
Since Liu Bei's visit, Qiao Guolao heard the news, and he rushed to find Wu Guotai impatiently the next day.
Wu Guotai, that is, Sun Ce's mother and Sun Quan's aunt.
His father Sun Jian married a sister flower, Sun Quan's mother died early. It can be said that Sun Quan was brought up by Wu Guotai, and his feelings are no different from his biological mother and son. In order to be able to ask Guotai for peace from time to time, Sun Quan kept him in the backyard of the house.
"Haha, Kunita. Congratulations, congratulations! ”
"Haha, the old man has been in the future for a long time, what a joy is this."
Qiao Guolao has a special identity and entered Sun Quan's mansion. As if you were in your own home, you went straight to the backyard. According to etiquette, the backyard is not something that ordinary people can enter.
When Qiao Guolao saw Wu Guotai, he hurriedly congratulated him. This move made Wu Guotai a little inexplicable, how can you congratulate him?
"Naturally, congratulations to Shang Xiang for getting a good match, and Guotai is happy for a good son-in-law!"
"What the old man said, the old body never knew!" Wu Guotai greeted the person, introduced the seat and asked.
"Huh? The news has spread all over the streets. The people of Nanxu have passed it on by word of mouth, so they don't know it. ”
When Wu Guotai heard this, his expression was even more puzzled. My daughter is getting married, and I don't know that I'm a mother.
Seeing that Wu Guotai's face didn't want to be fake, Qiao Guolao hurriedly asked again: "Could it be that Guotai really doesn't know?" Yesterday, Liu Xuande came to visit our house, saying that it was Marquis Wu who personally sent Lu Fan to Jingzhou to talk about the matchmaker. If you want to marry Shang Xiang, don't you have to? ”
"Don't panic, come and watch tea with the elders." Wu Guotai said that he told Qiao Guolao not to panic, but he actually told himself.
"Come on, go to the street and check the truth of this news."
After all, it was the woman who supported the huge Sun family after Sun Jian's death. Now although he has retreated to the back hall, he still has a calm bearing.
The subordinate was instructed, and went to inquire without mentioning it.
"The elder of the country tasted it, this is the method of drinking tea from Jingnan, I heard that it was created by a great talent known as Youlin. This method is quite exquisite, it is said to boil tea spring water to take up, river water to take the middle, well water to take down and so on. The tea brewed in this way is indeed a little more sweet than usual. Recently, it has become quite popular in Koto. Wu Guotai didn't mention marrying for the time being, but chatted with Qiao Guolao about common things.
"Oh, could it be the great talent who is called Youlin?" Qiao Guolao also exclaimed when he heard this.
"What, the old man knows?" Wu Guotai asked.
"Haha, the old man has also drunk the immortal drunk he created, the wine he served. There is a liquor shop in Nanxu that sells it, but unfortunately the production is not much. If there is another next time, the old man will bring a bucket for the country. ”
Qiao Guolao said, and said with emotion: "It is rumored that this person is a Jingzhou Gaoshi, and he has only been in the limelight recently. Jingzhou has Zhuge Liang's Wolong, and now there is a young Lin, which is really outstanding. ”
As Zhou Yu's father-in-law, he knows his son-in-law's ability. I also heard Xiao Qiao talk about Zhou Yu's jealousy of Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang is already such a character, and he doesn't want to have another young lin.
Youlin is naturally Liu Xian, there is no doubt that he shouldn't have such a big reputation, but he can't stand to have a good father. His father Liu Du is also an old man in the official eunuchs.
In the Han Dynasty, no matter what career or anything, fame was talked about, so you can see the hype of fame everywhere. For example, Wolong and Phoenix Chicks were famous in Jing Chu before they came out, relying on the more or less advocacy of Pang Degong, Huang Chengyan, and Sima Hui. Or, decades ago, the Yuedan reviews were all the same way.
Liu Du's popularity in Shilin is not high, almost equal to nothing, but he always understands this set. Not to mention among them, there is still Liu Bei who is adding fuel to the fire.
As a result, it is natural that wherever Liu Xian's immortal drunken shop opens, "Have you heard......
Wu Guotai and the two chattered for a while, and soon the servant came back with news.
"Qi Yu Guotai, it has been spread all over the street! Indeed, as the elder said, Wu Hou will marry Miss Xu, and now Liu Bei has come to Jiangdong. ”
"What!" Wu Guotai almost didn't believe his ears, and was shocked for a long time before he finally commanded sharply: "Go quickly, call Zhongmou, the rebel!" ”
At this time, Sun Quan didn't know that he had a pit teammate. Hearing the call of the country's wife, he hurriedly walked to the backyard.
"The child meets his mother and meets the elders." As soon as Sun Quan arrived, he saw that Qiao Guolao was also there, and hurriedly greeted him together.
"Humph!"
Wu Guotai saw that Sun Quan had arrived, and he made an angry face. Sun Quan looked at his expression and listened to this cold snort, doubting in his heart, and hurriedly asked.
"Mother, but what happened to Quan'er to provoke her mother?"
"Let me ask you, what do you think of me?" Wu Guotai didn't answer when he heard this, and asked rhetorically.
"Naturally, I regard my mother as my biological mother! Why did my mother say this? ”
Sun Quan heard Wu Guotai ask this, although he didn't know what was going on, he hurriedly said. The true feelings are revealed, and the tone is even a little anxious, which is indeed filial.
"You still treat me as your mother, why do you have to hide such a big thing from me?"
"This, what my mother said is ......" Although Sun Quan's words were doubtful, his mind turned and he said straightly: "It's broken!" ”
"Let me ask you, did you marry Shang Xiangxu to Liu Xuande?"
"This, this...... Where did this mother come from......"
"Rebel, you still have to hide it from me! Everyone on the street knows it, but I don't know it! Wu Guotai saw that Sun Quan didn't admit it, and his heart was even more nameless.
"This, my mother misunderstood, misunderstood. This is Gong Jin's plan, just to send Liu Bei to Nanxu, not to really marry his sister to him. ”
Seeing this, Sun Quan hurriedly dragged Zhou Yu's plan out, one to explain, and the other to die and not die.
"What a useless Sun Zhongmou, Zhou Gongjin! If you want to take Jingzhou, just take it, and you will pay attention to your sister! ”
Contrary to Sun Quan's expectations, Wu Guotai didn't understand when he heard this, but scolded both him and Zhou Yu. Although it is a little bad to use his own sister, it is not unacceptable in terms of the great cause of the territory.
Wu Guotai Xu was not relieved, and continued: "I think your father and brother are heroes, if you fancy any state and county, you can lead the troops to fight it." Zhou Yu, I think it's getting more and more alive! Back then, he and Bo Fu dared to conquer the six counties of Jiangdong with thousands of people, but now they want to make a fuss about Bo Fu's sister! Hmph, poor my daughter, do you want to be a widow before you pass the door? ”
"Guotai is angry, Zhou Yu ...... When the old decay sees it one day, he will teach him a good lesson. It's just that now that Uncle Huang has arrived in Nanxu, and everyone in the world knows that he came to marry Shang Xiang, it is better to make a mistake for a long time. Liu Bei also saw it yesterday, and he is a hero with generosity. Seeing this, Qiao Guolao hurriedly came up with an idea.
"Don't..... Never. "This is just a ploy, from beginning to end, Sun Quan has always been, and he really has no intention of marrying Sun Shangxiang to Liu Bei.
"It's not a good thing you've done!" Wu Guotai scolded angrily when he heard this, and scolded angrily: "Stay on the side honestly, and dare to speak out." ”
"I also know that it is not easy for you, so be it. Tomorrow, Liu Xuande will be called to Ganlu Temple for a blind date for his mother. If you don't match, you will arrange it, and if you do, I will recruit a son-in-law. Don't disobey! ”
Wu Guotai is not an ordinary woman, so she naturally knows the ambition of the Sun family. One side is the heart and soul of his beloved daughter, and the other side is the foundation of his late husband's son, and finally decided to go on a blind date.
"This, the child obeys."
Sun Quan knew that this was his mother's biggest understanding concession, and he didn't dare to be unwilling to persecute, so he could only agree.
