Chapter 23

Early the next morning, Wang Zhen hired a carriage to go to Zhang Xuan's estate. Because it was not summoned by the owner, the manor was very large, and it had to be reported layer by layer, and Wang Zhen waited at the door for nearly two quarters of an hour before being allowed to receive it. When he came to the usual hall, Zhang Xuan was still sitting on the Taishi chair, and Tang Qiu was standing behind him.

After Wang Zhen saluted, Zhang Xuan feigned anger and said: "Wang Qian, you actually dare to jump out of the window in my brothel and escape, do you know how much reputation damage you have brought to Yuexianglou?" People who don't know still think that the girl in my Yuexianglou is ugly, so they will force you to jump out of the window. ”

Wang Zhen clenched his fists and said: "Sin! Sin! I'm really sorry that the recklessness of the next moment has damaged the reputation of the Dongjiabao store! ”

Zhang Xuan raised his hand and smiled: "Forget it, it's just a joke with you." Do you have anything to do with me today? ”

Wang asked: "I came to see the owner today to recommend a guest to the owner. ”

Zhang Xuan said: "Oh?! Where did this person come from? What are the talents? ”

Wang Qiandao: "This person was originally the left protector of the Wudoumi Sect, and because he didn't want to be in the same stream with the Wudoumi Sect anymore, he wanted to defect to the owner. This man's swordsmanship is outstanding, as fast as lightning. I'm afraid Tang Qiu is not capable of being an enemy. Tang Qiu, who was standing beside Zhang Xuan, turned his head to look at Wang Zhen, revealing an interested look.

Zhang Xuan said: "Okay, I'll give you a carriage, and you can take him to the house on my behalf." How is it? ”

Wang asked: "I am willing to serve the owner!" In addition, there is another thing I would like to ask the owner to help with. ”

Zhang Xuan was a little curious and said, "Oh?!" What's up? Let's hear it. ”

Wang Zhen bowed and bowed, and said, "I want to ask the owner to come to my door to propose marriage for me in the future." ”

Zhang Xuan was very surprised and said, "Propose? Which girl? ”

Wang asked: "Chen Jun Xie's." ”

Zhang Xuan was shocked, leaned forward with his handrail, and asked, "Chen Jun Xie?!" Xie Daoyun? Do you want to marry Xie Daoyun? ”

Wang Zhen said very seriously: "Yes! ”

Zhang Xuan looked up to the sky and laughed, and said: "Wang Qian, Wang Qian, do you know that the Xie family has been an official for generations, and the Xie family's uncles have important border ministers who guard one side outside, and there are the cornerstone of the court that will support the society?" ”

Wang asked: "I know! ”

Zhang Xuan smiled: "Do you know that the Jiangnan clan and the Jiangbei clan have no intersection? ”

Wang asked: "I know! ”

Zhang Xuan put away his smile and asked, "Then why did you choose me as your matchmaker?" ”

Wang asked: "Because the proprietor is the person with the highest status and prestige among the people I know. ”

Zhang Xuan said: "You are a commoner, you have no power and no power, what do you think are the chances of you proposing to the Xie family?" ”

Wang asked: "It's not high! ”

Zhang Xuan said: "It's not high, to put it bluntly, if you go to propose marriage, you are humiliating yourself, do you know?" ”

Wang asked: "I know! ”

Zhang Xuan said: "Since you know everything, why should I help you do such a thankless job as helping you propose?" ”

Wang Zhi said: "The relationship between the East Family, the Jiangnan Family and the Jiangbei Family is tense, although it is not to the point where water and fire are incompatible, but it is also not compatible, if the East Family proposes goodwill to the famous Chen County Xie Family at this time, both the Jiangnan Family and the Jiangbei Family will think that the East Family is a broad-minded and tolerant person, which is a benefit; If the proposal is successful, the owner and the Xie family will have a marriage friendship, which is the second benefit; Wang Zhen and the owner have no relatives and no reason, even if the marriage is not successful, it will not hurt the face of the owner, but will make the Jiangnan family fight for the owner, which can enhance the prestige of the owner in the Jiangnan family, which is the third benefit; The owner deigned to be a small shopkeeper to the Xie family to propose, which will be of great help to the owner in the future to make a good relationship and attract customers. The proprietor is a businessman, and he can talk about the proposal as a business, and the conditions are opened by the proprietor, which is the fifth benefit. With these five advantages, isn't it worth the owner to run for the king once? ”

Zhang Xuan smiled: "Okay, you are a king, I don't think you are so clever, I underestimated you." But before I negotiate terms with you, I'll give you one more choice. ”

Wang Zhen wondered: What is one more choice? was about to ask, but I saw Zhang Xuan say loudly into the air: "Everyone is going to get married, don't you come out yet?" ”

An annoyed voice came from the back room and said, "Oh, brother, you're so annoying!" Then a young girl walked out, it was Zhang Tongyun.

Wang Zhen was quite surprised to see Zhang Tongyun and smiled. In fact, Zhang Xuan and Zhang Tongyun are both surnamed Zhang, they are both rich people, and their relationship is not difficult to guess, Wang Zhen just didn't put his mind here.

Wang Zhen bowed to Zhang Tongyun and said, "Wang Zhen has seen Miss Zhang. ”

Zhang Tongyun smiled and said to Wang Qian: "Wang Qian, Miss Xie is your sweetheart?" ”

Wang asked: "Yes! ”

Zhang Xuan said: "Wang Zhen, what do you think of my sister?" ”

Wang Zhen said with a smile: "The owner Ling Mei Bingxue is smart, lively and cute, and has a beautiful appearance, everyone will feel pleasing to the eye and cheerful when they see it." However, it is too timid and too weak. ”

Zhang Tongyun heard Wang Zhen praise himself at the beginning, his heart was happy, and he was not happy to lose himself at the end, knowing that he still remembered that he was stunned by him, so he said angrily: "Wang Qian! ”

Zhang Xuan said: "Since you said my sister so well, how about I marry her to you?" Not only do I not have to negotiate conditions with you, but I will cover all the expenses of the marriage. ”

Wang Zhen lowered his head and shook his head: "Not good! ”

Zhang Tongyun was angry and annoyed when he heard that Wang Zhen refused to marry in public, stomped his feet and ran out of the side door of the hall.

Zhang Xuandao: "Why is it bad? Don't you like her? ”

Wang Zhen said: "Let my sister see everyone's love, of course Wang Zhen likes it." It's just that Ling Mei doesn't really like me, and I'm afraid that she will regret it when she meets someone she really likes in the future. Ling Mei and Zai are also in love, I don't want her to regret it. ”

Zhang Xuan said: "However, she told me that she likes you." ”

Wang asked: "I like her too, but that's not love." Ling Mei is still a little girl, I once saved her by chance, and I was very good to her, so that she was both grateful and good to me, she regarded this gratitude and good feeling as love, which was a big bargain for Wang Qian. Besides, Ling Mei is playful and cute, it's a pity to use it as a lover. ”

Zhang Xuan said: "Oh?! So what should it be? ”

Wang Zhen smiled: "Be a sister!" ”

At this time, Zhang Tongyun walked in happily from the side door, and said to Wang Zhen with a smile: "Wang Qian, you are so good!" ”

Wang Zhen smiled: "Thank you for the compliment!" ”

Zhang Xuan said dissatisfiedly: "You said that you are a little girl, you are really a little girl, and you actually hid at the door and eavesdropped." ”

Zhang Tongyun pouted at Zhang Xuan and said unconvinced: "I don't want you to care!" Then he immediately changed his smiling face, stepped forward and took Zhang Xuan's arm and said, "Brother, you will promise Wang Zhen to help him get married, and there will be no shortage of meat." Besides, I also want to meet this Miss Xie. ”

Zhang Xuan withdrew his arm and said, "Okay! All right! I haven't figured out what the situation is now, what are you anxious about? Zhang Tongyun stuck out his tongue and stood to the side.

Zhang Xuan looked at Wang and asked, "Wang Qian, you said that you want to propose to Miss Xie, does this Miss Xie like you?" ”

Wang asked: "Mutual affection, consensual thinking." ”

Zhang Xuandao: "If it's really a good match, but it lacks the identity of the right person, this thing is not absolutely impossible." Because I heard that Xie An has a leisurely and gentle temperament, and is fair and decisive, I don't think he will do anything like beating mandarin ducks. ”
