Chapter 1208: Remorse
Zhao Sheng himself didn't expect that Zhao Cheng, who had always been timid and weak, would do this kind of thing, once he joined the Huang Tianjun, even if he divided the land and gave the family rations, if he died in battle, the field would not be recovered, and he would only lose the rations.
In the follow-up, Zhao Cheng showed his talent in Taoism, so he did not die directly on the battlefield, in the army, the casualty rate of the big head soldier is the highest, if he becomes an officer, even if it is just a captain, the safety will be greatly increased.
Daoists, as long as they are just starting out, will be entrusted with the position of school captain.
Zhao Cheng first entered the Tao, and then became the general banner, and the environment at home was also greatly improved, and as the military family of the officer, they could move with the army, and their safety was also guaranteed.
Even, Zhao Sheng can have a shop now, and Zhao Xiang can have some meat on his body, so that he will not be as thin as dry grass, all because Zhao Cheng continues to make meritorious contributions in the army.
In fact, even the current situation is because Zhao Sheng saved most of the money given by Huang Tianjun, and planned to leave it for Zhao Cheng to marry his daughter-in-law as a dowry in the future, otherwise the Zhao family would be even more wealthy.
Of course, the original Taoist Zhao Cheng wanted Zhao Sheng to keep this money for his little sister as a dowry.
He is a Taoist and knows the dangers of war, and since he went to join the army, he never thought that he would be able to come back alive in the future.
"But, but ......"
Zhao Xiang hesitated, but still didn't say the nightmare he had at night some time ago.
In the dream, she saw Zhao Cheng's head cut off by a fierce and vicious strong man, she thought that this was just an ordinary dream, but the rumors she heard today made her feel very bad.
Although she knew that Zhao Cheng knew the Dao Method, over the years, there had never been a few Dao people who had been defeated and died......
In such a silent atmosphere, Zhao Sheng's hammer was wielding more and more vigorously, and it seemed that only in this way could he get rid of the boredom in his heart.
Zhao Xiang also lowered her head, just struggling to stuff wood into the stove, the fire was scorching, but her heart was very cold.
She couldn't imagine what would happen if the dream came true......
When Zhao's mother left, Zhao Cheng was five years old, she was only three years old, and for the next seven years, she was actually taken by Zhao Cheng.
And in the past few years, the only time she has had a happier time is probably every time Zhao Cheng comes back from the army, she can always receive a gift, or a little sugar, or a new set of clothes, or some delicate small objects.
And just when the father and daughter were relatively silent, at this moment, the door that had been half-hidden was pushed open.
An ox cart stopped in front of the shop, the ox is an old cow, and the car is very old, but in this era, those who can ride the car, even if the car is broken, have surpassed ninety out of nine people.
The person who pushed the door, who got out of the car, was a wealthy middle-aged man, this person had yellowish skin, showing a kind of wind and frost, and his eyes were a little small, but very bright, giving people a sense of shrewdness and ability.
This middle-aged man, as soon as he entered the door, his expression turned low, and before he could speak, Zhao Sheng had already spoken, and he couldn't help but ask with surprise: "In-laws, why do you have time to come to the cold house today?!" ”
While speaking, he didn't even want the half-beaten farm tools in his hand, he put them down directly and greeted them, looking very enthusiastic.
This middle-aged man, surnamed Wang, named Wang Jiran, is a businessman, a few years ago, Zhao Cheng just became a Taoist who entered the Tao, when he took the position of captain, he sent someone to find the Zhao family to say that he was married, and made an in-law with the Zhao family, and agreed to stay until his youngest daughter reached the age of sixteen, and then became married.
As for why it is sixteen, and not the universal fourteen, the Wang family said that it is too dangerous for a girl to have a child at fourteen, and after the age of sixteen, it is more secure.
Zhao Sheng hadn't read any books, so he didn't know that the Wang family was waiting for the price to sell, so Zhao Sheng was very satisfied with a family matter.
Because the Zhao family has been mud legs for generations, but the Wang family is a family of merchants, although they are not very rich, but they can ride ox carts, and their own wives are nothing more than this when the family road has not fallen.
As for Zhao Cheng, although he is a school captain, he has been promoted in the future, but Zhao Sheng still thinks that this is his own high climb because of his thinking inertia, and in addition, he is also very satisfied with the youngest daughter of the Wang family, and he does not dare to snub his in-laws.
At this moment, Wang Jiran suddenly came over, and Zhao Sheng's first thought was that the Wang family came to discuss the matter of getting married, calculating the time, the daughter of the Wang family is also fifteen, if she wants to marry at sixteen, this time is almost time to prepare.
As for the fact that Zhao Cheng is still outside, in this era, marriage is the order of his parents, and the parents of the two families are finalized, it is completely decided, and the follow-up Zhao Cheng comes back, and it is just a process.
With such a thought, Zhao Sheng was naturally surprised and delighted, and even Zhao Xiang thought of this, and at the same time his heart was reluctant, he also pricked up his ears.
Of course, she is reluctant, but she still supports Zhao Cheng to have a good relationship, and Zhao Cheng has done enough over the years.
At the same time, she can't help but wonder what her future sister-in-law will be like.
Whether it is Zhao's father or her, in fact, they have only seen the portrait of the woman, it was a few years ago, and they can't see anything at all, and they don't know what the other party looks like now.
For a moment, the curiosity in her heart even washed away the worry in her heart.
When Wang Jiran heard this, he sighed slightly and said, "Brother Zhao, I came this time to discuss the marriage contract. ”
Although he noticed that Wang Jiran's tone was wrong, Zhao Sheng didn't react for a short time, and when he heard the marriage contract, he immediately said, "Is it going to set a date?!" ”
Immediately, Wang Jiran's expression became even more gloomy, and he said: "Don't hide it from Brother Zhao, I originally planned to do the same, but just half a month ago, my little daughter suddenly fell ill, and now it has taken a turn for the worse, and the doctor said that my little daughter may not be able to live for two years......"
"So ......"
"So, I thought, Brother Zhao, your child, young and heroic, young and promising, my family is Gao Pan, how can I marry my dying daughter now?!"
"Isn't this unkind and unjust?"
"This marriage contract is still dissolved!"
As soon as these words came out, the air immediately fell silent, except for the crackling sound of burning wood, which suddenly became louder.
And whether it is Zhao Sheng or Zhao Xiang, when they hear this, they are like being struck by lightning.
"This ......"
"My ......, my family, could the doctor have seen it wrong, it's actually just a minor illness......
Zhao Sheng, the whole thing looked humble, such a "good" family business, he had been looking forward to it for a long time, and now such a result made him a little difficult to accept.
And Zhao Xiang looked at his father's appearance, and suddenly thought that Zhao Cheng's life and death were unknown, but he suddenly felt sour.
After that, Zhao Sheng pleaded several times, but Wang Jisheng still insisted, and finally had to give up.
And after this incident, Zhao Sheng seemed to be ten years old all of a sudden.
He clearly remembered that at the beginning, the other party took the initiative to let people talk about this family business, but now, it is also the other party who changes the hexagram......
……
"Father, is it done?!"
On the other side, in a big house, a somewhat handsome girl, when she saw her father coming back, she asked excitedly, as if she was afraid that the matter would not be done.
In this era, the atmosphere between men and women is relatively open, and wives and widows are very popular, and there is no stain at all if they regret their marriage.
The girl's name is Wang Mingwei, she is Wang Jiran's youngest daughter, she didn't look down on this family business from the beginning, but this is normal, her age is the age of innocence, and she loves to read all kinds of talented and beautiful people's scripts.
The ideal person in mind naturally can't be a Taoist from a mud-legged family, although her father has always told her that the general flag is not bad, and it belongs to her family.
But she has read too much of the book, and feels that the general flag is just a petty official, becoming the general's wife, and even meeting the young prince who walks the rivers and lakes, and finally becoming the prince's wife, this is her future.
It's just that it was the order of her parents before, and she didn't dare to resist if she wanted to, and she didn't want to now, his father suddenly changed his mind.
Naturally, this was a great surprise to her.
And Wang Jiran, seeing his daughter like this, frowned slightly, but then he was relieved, and he said, "It's done." ”
Wang Mingwei only felt that this was her father who had figured it out, or felt sorry for her daughter, but what Wang Jiran thought about was that Huang Tiandao was now defeated in the Southern Wilderness, and it was the king to clear up the relationship as soon as possible before the news spread.
He decided on this family business before, because Huang Tianjun was still very strong at that time, and he had this level of relationship, just taking advantage of the situation, and now the building is about to collapse, but it is not good.
As for the Zhao family, as well as Zhao Cheng, he is not afraid of retaliation from the other party, and he does not mention whether Zhao Cheng can come back from the Southern Wilderness alive, even if he comes back, his family is no longer here.
He already has plans to relocate.
……
"Wang family, do you ......dismiss your in-laws?"
"Merchants are profit-oriented and ruthless, and they have never been like this throughout the ages, and they have never been the climate."
In the study, it was raining a lot outside, listening to the sound of the rain and looking at the folds handed over by his subordinates, Huang Tiandao smiled and smiled, which was meaningful.
Taoists are not taboo to marry, there are actually many Taoists who marry the daughters of merchants, businessmen are ruthless, and Taoists are actually the same.
As for Huang Tiandao, he has been paying attention to Huang Tian since he discovered that Zhao Cheng had comprehended Huang Tian's recreation.
"It just so happens that I also have a heavenly marriage here."
Huang Tiandao muttered.
"Da Niu, you take an elite rider to pick up the father and daughter of the Zhao family, remember, don't be a little lazy, otherwise, I'll ask you!"
Huang Tiandao's expression was solemn.
A tall man standing below was immediately startled when he heard this, and immediately knelt down and said, "Oh! ”
In the past few days, I will make two changes, recuperate, and resume the update in a few days.
