Chen Dabao is a person who keeps etiquette, since the eldest brother came, although he had just come back from outside, covered in dust, he still personally greeted him at the gate.

However, to his surprise, in addition to Han Xinghao, there was also Mrs. Han at the door.

"Big brother and sister-in-law are fine." Chen Dabao bowed. He was a little confused in his heart, what is this Mrs. Han doing here?

More than ten years ago, Mrs. Han and her wife had a quarrel when they met, and the two families had almost no contact.

Later, after the death of his wife, Mrs. Han attended the funeral of her due to etiquette, and she never came to the door.

Today, he came to visit inexplicably, and looking at the appearance of Mrs. Han, there was still anger on her face.

When Chen Dabao saw this sister-in-law, he was very hesitant. It's been more than ten years, and I've been putting on a stinky face to show anyone.

But although he didn't like it in his heart, he still gave enough courtesy.

Han Xinghao saw Chen Dabao salute and hurriedly returned the salute. Mrs. Han snorted coldly, seeming to be quite disdainful.

Chen Dabao was so angry that he didn't even look at Mrs. Han, and only said to Han Xinghao: "Big brother, please come in." ”

Han Xinghao also noticed his wife's stinky face, was a little embarrassed, smiled embarrassedly at Chen Dabao, and walked into the house.

Mrs. Han followed her husband into the door.

After the guests and hosts in the hall were seated, Chen Dabao ordered his men to bring tea and said: "The younger brother has just returned from Kaifeng, and he has just arrived at home. ”

Han Xinghao smiled: "Dabao, you must not be polite. Family, what else to talk about hospitality is not thoughtful. ”

When Chen Dabao heard this, he smiled slightly, thinking that you treat me as a family, and I'm afraid that you, a lady who can't be provoked, may not.

Sure enough, I saw Mrs. Han say with a gloomy face: "Dabao, my daughter Qingying is now the deputy envoy of the Ministry of Inspection, and she has been appointed as the deputy head catcher of Yuzhou and the envoy of the left road of western Henan. ”

When Chen Dabao heard this, he was immediately extremely surprised in his heart. This is a long period of official position, and he is quite confused. Let's not talk about the latter one, just according to the deputy envoy of the Inspectorate Department, it is an official position from the fourth grade.

How can a teenage girl improve so quickly?

How much credit does this have?

However, although the grade of the fictitious position is high, the latter two actual awards actually do not have much power. According to the practice of the officialdom of the Daping Dynasty, Han Qingying's power is equivalent to the level of the Tongzhi of Luoyang Mansion.

But Rao is so, for a teenage woman, this is already quite a promotion.

Compared with Han Qingying, Chen Ran of his own family is only the head of a small sect, which is really not worth mentioning.

Thinking of this, Chen Dabao showed a smile on his face and sincerely blessed: "I see that this niece has high ambitions and outstanding abilities since she was a child. Today is indeed soaring. I'm an uncle, so I really have to congratulate her. Congratulations to the two of you for cultivating such an outstanding daughter. ”

Hearing Chen Dabao's praise, Han Xinghao couldn't help but smile on his face, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "The little girl has made meritorious contributions, speaking of which Chen Ran has contributed a lot. As the little girl's helper, he followed the little girl deep into Jingling, and directly served the main altar of the Frost Moon Sect, and cracked this great eucalyptus for the imperial court in one fell swoop. Among them, I am afraid that Chen Ran also contributed a lot. Speaking of which, we also want to express our gratitude to Chen Ran. ”

Chen Dabaole said: "It's nothing, they are all cousins, and it is right to help each other." ”

The two of them talked happily with each other, but Mrs. Han said with a gloomy face: "It is true that brother and sister are in deep love, and my family Qingying is very respectful to your family." ”

When Chen Dabao heard this, he finally heard the intention of the two. Sure enough, it's for the next generation.

Listening to what Mrs. Han meant, these two people actually fell in love with each other, haven't they already made a private decision for life?

When he thought of this, his heart was suddenly very happy. Although Mrs. Han and his family do not deal with each other, this niece Qingying Chen Dabao also likes it very much, if Chen Ran is really allowed to marry and be his daughter-in-law, it will be a beautiful thing.

But Qingying's official is not small, will the men be weak and the women strong? Chen Dabao was a little secretly worried in his heart.

All in all, if these two people can really succeed, Chen Dabao must be extremely satisfied in his heart.

Han Xinghao also said on the side: "Qing Ying always mentions Chen Ran at home, saying that he has the ability, and it seems that what my cousin says is more effective than those of us parents. ”

Chen Dabao's face immediately showed a fatherly smile, this little girl seemed to have a lot of friendship with Chen Ran. Since ancient times, cousins and cousins have indeed been close to each other.

However, Mrs. Han did not have a smile on her face, she glanced at her husband and motioned for him not to say more. continued: "Qing Ying even gave Chen Ran all the rewards given by the government last time. I don't know what kind of ecstasy Chen Ran gave Qing Ying, and he actually deceived a girl who was a head catcher like this. ”

Hearing Mrs. Han use a deception, Chen Dabao's face suddenly changed, and he looked at Mrs. Han with a somewhat stunned face.

In an instant, Chen Dabao finally discovered that Mrs. Han did not mean to kiss and kiss when she came on this trip, but was making trouble.

He put away the joy and said in a deep voice: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, since it is a reward from the government, my family's Chen Ran will not dare to swallow it." He didn't take advantage of people since he was a child. ”

"But he's already taken it." Mrs. Han said again.

"I'll just let him come back." Chen Dabao's tone also became calm.

Mrs. Han waved her hand and said, "That's it, the old man is not here to chase these rewards. This kind of reward, how much will my family's green cherry blossoms have in the future. I just feel that these two children are too close now. ”

Chen Dabao frowned, and he asked directly: "What is the reason why sister-in-law is here today, please make it clear." ”

Mrs. Han nodded, and also got straight to the point: "I mean, my family is in their youth and has a bright future, and they will definitely go to Lin'an to be an official in the future." Her good years are not spent on Chen Ran. ”

"I see. My sister-in-law thinks that my family Chen Ran is not talented, and she is not worthy of your family Qingying, so she doesn't agree with this family business, right? Chen Dabao asked coldly.

He received an inexplicable insult, and his fists clenched involuntarily.

Han Xinghao didn't want to make the atmosphere too stiff, so he hurriedly said: "Don't misunderstand, Dabao, Chen Ran is a good boy." It's just that our Han family has high expectations for Qingying and wants her to go to Lin'an for development. ”

Mrs. Han sneered slightly: "It's really not enough." ”

Chen Dabao's face became gloomy, slapped the chair hard, and said, "Since you don't want to, just talk to Qing Ying." We will no longer interact with each other in the future, and that's it. My family Chen Ran, it is not that he has to climb high. You don't have to come to your door to talk about it. ”

Han Xinghao and his wife glanced at each other, Mrs. Han pursed her lips, as if she didn't want to speak, but she still said: "The key to the problem now is that Qingying is unwilling to listen to us. She... She is now on Yuyang Mountain again, saying that she wants to ask her cousin for martial arts. ”

When Chen Dabao heard this, he sneered slightly; "I understand, it's Qingying who has to deal with Chen Ran. You can't persuade your daughters yourselves. Do you want me to persuade Chen Ran, and then let Chen Ran persuade her, right? ”

Although she didn't want to admit it, Mrs. Han nodded and said, "Yes." ”

She was secretly angry in her heart, her daughter's official became bigger and bigger, but her eyes did not rise at all. So what's so good about Chen Ran? I don't even listen to my parents, it's really worrying!

Chen Dabao was silent, he was open-minded and never liked to interfere too much in his son's affairs.

But now he was approached by someone.,Forced to order his son to cut off contact with Qing Sakura.。

He wanted to refuse in his heart, but he was afraid that the Han Xinghao couple would think that his Chen family wanted to take the opportunity to climb their Han family.

After thinking about it, this matter still has to be taken care of after all. He stood up and said, "Since that's the case, then without further ado, let's go to Yuyang Mountain." It just so happens that I may not have seen my son in a long time. ”

At that moment, Chen Dabao summoned the guards of the Flying Fish Gang, and they led the way, and the group headed towards Yuyang Mountain.

Along the way, Chen Dabao and Han Xinghao and his wife no longer had any conversation, and the atmosphere was very cold.

When they arrived at the crossing of the Yellow River, many members of the Flying Fish Gang came to support them, and they crossed the Yellow River all the way and set foot on the north bank.

These days, without the suppression of the Frost Moon Sect, coupled with the blessing of the Unification Sect, the Flying Fish Gang has recruited troops and expanded a lot of people. Faintly has become a subordinate gang of the Guiyi faction.

Han Xinghao and his wife were also a little surprised to see so many people surrounding Chen Dabao and respecting him very much.

Originally, they thought that the Guiyi faction was just a small fight with Chen Ran, but they didn't reach the north bank of the Yellow River to already have such a force, and they suddenly had a new understanding of this gang.

But even so, Chen Ran is not enough to compare with his daughter.

On the border of western Henan, among these sects on the north bank of the Yellow River, except for the Wangwu faction, they are not big factions. According to the conventions of this dynasty, the Wangwu faction is the royal dojo, and the head of the sect is equivalent to the official position of the fourth grade.

I have known an old book friend for ten years to recommend a book-chasing app,! It's really easy to use, driving, before going to bed rely on this reading aloud to pass the time, you can download it here.. 】

If Chen Ran can become the head of the Wangwu faction, then he may be worthy of his daughter.

But will Chen Ran have a chance to do it?

In Mrs. Han's heart, Chen Ran had no chance at all. You must know that the current head of the Wangwu faction, Master Chongzheng, is also a highly respected person in the martial arts, far from being comparable to a hairy boy like Chen Ran.

However, I heard that Master Chongzheng seems to have passed away recently, and he was replaced by his junior brother Chong Su Daochang.

Han Xinghao and his wife were not interested in these martial arts matters on the border of western Henan, they were just bent on entering Lin'an.

Soon, the group came to Yuyang Mountain.

At this time, Yuyang Mountain was no longer what it used to be, and the guards were extremely strict, and when they saw Chen Dabao and others, they immediately stepped forward to question.

The disciple of the Flying Fish Gang immediately said, "This is the father of Master Chen, who came to see Master Chen. ”

Then, he introduced Han Xinghao and his wife, but the tone was not so enthusiastic. On the way, they had already noticed that Chen Dabao seemed to be at odds with the couple.

Chen Dabao looked at the continuous mountains in front of him, as well as the guards on the mountains with solemn expressions and tall figures. There was something unreal in my heart.

Is this really the inheritance of his own son? That's too fast, isn't it?

He took two steps forward, put on a face with a head of the family, and said with a smile: "Everyone, I am Chen Ran's father, speaking of which, our father and son haven't seen each other for a long time, let's take the road up the mountain here." ”

He originally thought that after he revealed his identity, these guards would immediately come up and slap him like those people in the Flying Fish Gang, but he didn't expect that although the guard's attitude was still very good, he said: "Since it is Old Man Chen, please wait here for a while, and I will go and ask the head to come." ”

As he spoke, he took out a few stools from the gatehouse and asked Chen Dabao to sit under the archway and wait.

Chen Dabao was stunned for a moment, but he had no choice but to wait on the sidelines.

These guards had never seen Chen Dabao, and they were afraid of fraud, and the strangers were involved in the mountain, and the disciples themselves had to bring their relatives up the mountain, which was the rule of the sect.

Mrs. Han sneered on the side: "Dabao, your father who is the head of the sect still has to wait for the report, is Chen Ran the head of the sect?" ”

Chen Dabao smiled slightly and did not comment. But he was also secretly beating the drum in his heart, could it be that Chen Ran couldn't bring down these people, so he was stumbling on him?

After a while, I saw Chen Ran coming down from the mountain in person, followed by a Han Qingying.

When Mrs. Han saw Han Qingying's intimate appearance around Chen Ran, she felt angry in her heart.

And Chen Ran is very confused today.

First of all, my cousin suddenly went up the mountain to learn martial arts, and after a short while, the news of his father's return to the mountain came.

After not seeing his father for many days, Chen Ran was naturally a little happy. But when he walked down the mountain, he suddenly found that his uncle and aunt Han Xinghao and his wife had also followed.

Han Xinghao just returned it, but Mrs. Han's words Chen Ran hadn't seen him for more than ten years. This girl has always had a dislike for her mother, and now she has a gloomy face, and it seems that some people are not good.

He didn't care about anything else, grabbed his father's arms, and said with a smile: "Dad, how long have you been at ease in Kaifeng Mansion, and you finally want to come back?" ”

As he spoke, he used the fourth method of the Yi Jin Sutra to observe Chen Dabao's qi and blood.

With just one glance, Chen Ran came to a conclusion. Qi and blood are very weak, and they are overworked. It seems that in Kaifeng Mansion, Dad is indeed working day and night, and of course the suspicion of visiting the Goulan every day is not ruled out.

But seeing Chen Dabao smiled ashamedly, he said: "My foundation in Kaifeng, compared with you, it seems that it is not worth mentioning." ”

Chen Ran noticed that his father had a trace of loss for half his life, and saw the whiteness of his father's temples, patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay Dad, you have so many apprentices and grandchildren, you can just stand behind and strategize in the future." ”

His shot was like a father comforting his son. However, the father and son did not have too many rules, looked at each other and smiled, and suddenly there was a joy of reunion between father and son.

When Han Qingying saw the arrival of her parents, she was also a little puzzled, walked up to her parents, and asked softly, "Dad, mother, why are you here?" ”

Han Xinghao and his wife were reluctant to explain to their daughter in public, so they just glared at her and asked her to talk less nonsense.

Chen Ran could see that the atmosphere seemed to be a little wrong, but he didn't care about it in his heart. No matter what moths these two men do, they are no threat to him.

He routinely bowed to Han Xinghao, but he didn't even say hello to Mrs. Han, he only made a gesture of invitation and led everyone up the mountain.

Mrs. Han felt Chen Ran's rudeness, but she couldn't attack angrily, so she could only silently follow her up the mountain.
