Chapter 42: Love at First Sight
According to reliable sources, Niu Yaowu has retrieved so much gold, silver and jewelry in just over a month, which shows that this kid has good ability, if he can really become their son-in-law, why worry about the sect's future discovery.
These matchmakers set their eyes on Li Chunfeng and the fat man again, and if they can become Niu Yaowu's partners, their abilities will naturally not be too bad, even if they fail to succeed in saying that Niu Yaowu is married, they can bring these two boys back for a blind date, which can be regarded as an explanation.
Seeing that the matchmaker cast her eyes on herself, the two of them were big for a while, Li Chunfeng hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I already have a sweetheart, and I can get married next time I go back." ”
Although the fat man didn't have a sweetheart, he didn't want to participate in any blind date, so he lied: "Don't beat me to rest, if my daughter-in-law knows, she will have to break my leg when she goes back." ”
Lao Niu and Li Chunfeng looked at the fat man with strange eyes, when did this kid have a daughter-in-law, he really bragged and didn't make a draft.
Seeing that both of them had a favorite object, the matchmakers stopped bothering them.
The matchmakers set a time, and after three days, they went to their clients on a blind date in turn in order of first come, first served, and told Lao Niu the detailed address.
When the matchmakers were about to leave, Niu Xuewen took out more than a dozen red envelopes, each of which contained four or five taels of silver, and distributed them to the matchmakers, so that they could go back and say more good things.
They took the red envelope, weighed it with their hands, and knew the weight of the silver, and they immediately became smiling, and the good words kept coming out, and Niu Xuewen was full of joy.
After politely sending the matchmaker away, Niu Xuewen patted his son's shoulder violently and said, "Son, so many famous families came to kiss, you have given Lao Tzu a long face." ”
In fact, Lao Niu didn't want to participate in any bullshit blind dates, but he had to go, first, he didn't want to disappoint his parents, and secondly, these sects had some strength, if they were angry, would his parents still want to mix here in the future.
As soon as the three days came, Lao Niu put on a brand new clothes, accompanied by two companions, and came to a small city in a carriage, which was dozens of miles away from Lao Niu's house, and arrived in less than two hours by carriage.
There is a large family in the east of the city, the plaque is written with two big characters "Wangfu", the old cow got out of the carriage, came to the gate, and told the janitor about the purpose of coming here, who knew that the house did not let them enter through the gate, but led them to a small gate in the backyard, and said: "You go in from here, and someone will take you to see the young lady at that time." ”
When the three of them saw this scene, they understood in their hearts that the people of the palace clearly looked down on Lao Niu, a poor boy, otherwise they would not have let them enter through the small door.
The fat man was very angry, and just wanted to teach the family a lesson, but was stopped by Li Chunfeng, he glanced at the fat man, and signaled him not to act rashly, even if he didn't think about the three of them, he had to think about Lao Niu's parents.
Although the old cow was angry, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and walk in.
The three of them were taken to the backyard by a subordinate, and there was a beautiful girl waiting there in a gazebo, and the old cow hurriedly stepped forward, and when he came to the girl, he looked particularly restrained, and his face was as red as a monkey's ass, but after talking for long, he returned to his partner with a dejected face.
When the two saw him, they hurriedly stepped forward to ask, and Lao Niu shook his head and said: "The girl thinks I'm too real, and I'm not good-looking, so I didn't take a fancy to me, but I just want to be friends with me." ”
The fat man patted Lao Niu's shoulder and comforted: "It's okay Lao Niu, she doesn't look down on you means that she doesn't have this blessing, and you will definitely meet a good girl next." ”
In the next three days, the three of them went to different small towns, Lao Niu met with many girls, and they were all the same, no one liked him, and they all entered through the small door, so Lao Niu was very disappointed, is he so bad? None of the girls fell in love with him.
Li Chunfeng explained the reason in one sentence: "Lao Niu, it's not that you are too bad, but because of your identity, in the eyes of these rich daughters, you are an out-and-out bun, you have never seen the world, they look down on you in their hearts, so they will reject you one by one." ”
Hearing these words, Lao Niu was not hit by this, but was full of fighting spirit, although he was born poor, but he never felt how lowly he was, since these people looked down on themselves so much, then wait and see, they will regret it in the future.
There is still the last family that has not met, and Lao Niu is already mentally prepared, even if the blind date fails, his parents will not force him to go on a blind date with these families after he goes back, which is also a good thing for him.
After driving dozens of miles, they came to a small city called "Tianxuan City", the three of them rushed to the center of the city, and came to the door of a big mansion, and the plaque above these "Shen Mansion" two big characters, they were the same as before, after jumping out of the carriage, the old cow said to the keeper of the door, the family Ding heard that the person who came was Niu Yaowu, his tone became very respectful, and opened the door to personally lead the three people in.
Seeing this situation, the three of them were very surprised, the previous janitors were very arrogant, and they all entered through the back door, how did they change this time? Li Chunfeng instantly felt that Lao Niu had a play this time.
Follow the family into the house, came to a lobby, an old man in his sixties was sitting on the main seat drinking tea, saw three young people coming, immediately got up to greet them, came to the three people, the old man bowed his hand slightly, and then invited them in.
As soon as the three of them sat down, the old man asked, "Which of the three is Niu Shaoxia?" ”
Lao Niu immediately got up, bowed respectfully to the old man, and said, "Junior Niu Yaowu, meet the senior." ”
After signaling Lao Niu to sit down, he looked at it and began to introduce me, his name is Shen Nian, he is the head of Tianxuanmen in this small city, although this sect is not big, but he controls most of the business in this small city, and he has a granddaughter, named Shen Ping'er, is fourteen years old, it stands to reason that he has reached the age of marriage, but his granddaughter is very high-minded, and he is not interested in ordinary rich sons, so he wants Lao Niu to come and give it a try.
After speaking, Shen Nian asked the maid on the side to take the old cow to the backyard to meet his granddaughter.
As soon as Lao Niu left at the foot of the mountain, Li Chunfeng said: "Senior, looking at your face, I'm afraid that your body is a little sick?!" ”
Hearing this, Shen Nian was stunned for a moment, then returned to his original demeanor, pretending not to understand Li Chunfeng's words, and said: "Li Shaoxia is not joking, the old man is very strong, what is the problem." ”
Li Chunfeng felt that this senior was not bad, and he didn't want to die like this, so he directly said the cause: "I have studied medicine since I was a child, and you are already heavily poisoned, so I am afraid that you will not live for a few months." ”
Seeing that this young man could see that he was poisoned, then he would definitely be able to save himself, Shen Nian's eyes showed excitement, and said, "Li Shaoxia, can you solve the poison on my body?!" ”
Li Chunfeng didn't rush to answer, but first asked the reason, and said, "Senior Shen, you can tell me how you got this poison first!" ”
Shen Nian pondered for a moment, and then explained the reason for the matter.
It turned out that a few days ago, when he was out, he was plotted by a nearby gang and fell into a poison called "100 Days Killing".
He is not afraid of death, but he can't let go of his only granddaughter, Shen Ping'er, so he is so anxious to find a reliable grandson-in-law to take care of his granddaughter and protect this huge family business.
The old cow came to the backyard, and a young woman sat in the gazebo and waited quietly.
A few steps forward, after Lao Niu saw the girl's face, he was actually stunned, she was really beautiful, her eyebrows were picturesque, her movements were dignified and generous, and her smile hooked Lao Niu's heartstrings.
Seeing the old cow standing in place, the girl got up and gave a blessing, and the old cow reacted and bowed respectfully to the woman, his face was red like a monkey's buttocks, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Seeing Lao Niu look so stupid, the girl smiled, gently pointed to the stone bench, and asked him to sit down.
The two chatted very happily in the gazebo, Lao Niu could only smirk, unlike those girls before, this time he really liked it, he had never seen such a beautiful girl.
And the girl had seen a lot of excellent boys before, and her eyes were full of lewdness, and even more so that she was very annoying, so she turned around and left, only Lao Niu was so sincere, which was very much in line with her heart.
Shen Ping'er understands in his heart that those so-called merry boys are just skins, only by finding someone who is really good for themselves is the right choice, background or anything is not a problem, his grandfather didn't mix up from mud legs, as long as he has the ability, why don't he worry about the family to flourish.
Nowadays, it is really rare for a girl with such a vision as Shen Ping'er, how many girls are infatuated with those sons and brothers who look personable on the outside, but they are deceived physically and mentally, and in the end they can only cry at home.
In the lobby, Shen Nian dismissed the people around him, took off his upper clothes, and saw a black line extending from his wrist to his heart.
Looking at Li Chunfeng shaking his head, Shen Nian was not too disappointed after getting dressed, and said after a long sigh: "Forget it, the old man's life is gone, as long as my granddaughter finds it to rely on me, she will be at ease." ”
Li Chunfeng frowned tightly, thinking carefully, and suddenly he seemed to think of something, and said, "I once flipped through a book in Uncle Han Jin's study, although there is no antidote to poison, but it can delay the time of the onset of severe poison. ”
Shen Nian saw a glimmer of light and asked in surprise, "What method?!" ”
