Chapter 104: The Gao Family's Son-in-law
Through conversation, Lu Fang learned that the maid's name was Xue'er, and she was the maid of the eldest lady of the Gao family. This time, he was dragged into the Gao family because he wanted to make him rich.
Originally, Lu Fang wanted to run directly, but looking back, is there any hardship in this?
Otherwise, whoever is willing to pull a person at will will ask others to join in.
"Don't rush it."
Lu Fang can leave at any time if he wants to leave, he wants to hear what the Gao family lady has before leaving, and it is not too late.
After some washing.
Xue'er combed Lu Fang's long hair and said, "Childe looks like a weak scholar, I didn't expect my physique to be so strong, my young lady will definitely be very satisfied with you." ”
Lu Fang tried a few words, but Xue'er didn't know anything, but she just said that she would know when she asked Miss.
He simply didn't ask.
After packing up, Xue'er left, and Lu Fang sat alone in the room, waiting from noon to afternoon, and from afternoon to evening, before a maid came to ask him to meet Miss Gao.
The backyard of Gaofu.
In a huge boudoir, the sandalwood incense in the incense burner slowly wafted, and the whole room was fragrant.
"Miss, someone brought it."
The maid bowed.
I saw a woman in her twenties by the window, looking at a ledger, her black hair tied with a green ribbon, and her delicate face was amazing.
Lu Fang couldn't understand how a woman like this could find a down-and-out scholar very abruptly and ask him to join him.
As long as she opens her mouth, I think there are many people who are willing to marry her.
Gao Youyao looked at Lu Fang, nodded slightly, and said, "Let's make a long story short, if you join the Gao family, I can let you not worry about money in the next life, but we can't have the reality of husband and wife." ”
"You can't look for wild women out there either."
"But don't worry, if you follow the rules, in three years, I will give Xue'er to you as a concubine and inherit the lineage for your family."
Lu Fang frowned and said, "Why do you want to do this?" ”
"You don't need to know that." Gao Youyao continued to open the ledger.
Lu Fangwan smiled and said: "That's not good, I must know why, otherwise how would I know if it will be dangerous to become your Gao family's son-in-law." ”
Seeing Gao Youyao frowning, Xue'er hurriedly said: "Young Master Fang, that's the case, the master is only one young lady, and the old man has been seriously ill recently, and he wants the young lady to marry immediately." ”
"That's all?"
Lu Fang asked suspiciously.
It is indeed understandable to find a controllable down-and-out scholar as a son-in-law.
Xue'er sighed and said: "It's so urgent, it's also to block Lord Zheng's son-in-law from wanting to marry my young lady, that idle gentleman just wants to take the Gao family's family business." ”
"It's because he released his words that the local people, when they heard that they were going to join the Gao family, they didn't want to, so they could only grieve Fang Gongzi."
"And this?" Lu Fang raised his eyebrows lightly and said, "What is the origin of that Lord Zheng?" ”
Xue'er said: "It's the county order of this county, and the three generations of the Zheng family are all big officials here, and the power here is very strong, but don't worry, as long as you don't run around, there will be no danger." ”
Lu Fang was puzzled: "This place is so close to Shangjing, can a small county official be so domineering?" ”
"You're so big-breathed, little county magistrate?" Gao Youyao said in a deep voice: "In Beicheng, Lord Zheng is a parent official, do you want to go to Beijing to complain?" People also have a relationship there, what do you think I should do? Or what can be done? ”
Lu Fang pondered for a moment and said with a wry smile: "In this way, being the son-in-law of the Gao family is even more dangerous than I imagined. ”
Xue'er hurriedly said: "Miss's master is a six-grade martial artist, and he can come to Beicheng in a few days, and when the time comes, it won't be too much to want to come to Lord Zheng." ”
Gao Youyao shook her head and said: "Xue'er, your words today are a bit too much, since he is afraid of danger and is unwilling, then forget it, I think he is just a scholar with low eyes, otherwise how could he be like this." ”
Cher blushed and didn't say anything more.
Lu Fang nodded and said: "I didn't say I didn't want to, people are about to starve to death, although it is dangerous, but I am willing to join the family." ”
He wanted to see how domineering the so-called county officials at the feet of the Son of Heaven were.
Anyway, this son-in-law of the Gao family is also a formality.
"Well, if you are willing, I still have to think about it, come here, bring Fang Gongzi down first, so that I can entertain you." But Fang Gongzi, please rest assured, even if I don't choose you at that time, I will give you some silver compensation. ”
Gao Youyao waved her hand after speaking.
After the maid took Lu Fang out, Gao Youyao looked at Xue'er without saying a word.
Xue'er pouted and said, "Miss, why do you look at me like this." ”
Gao Youyao rolled her eyes and said, "You little hoof, did you take a fancy to this square shoe?" What attracted you to him? is down, and he is still so high-handed, and his appearance can only be regarded as upright. ”
Xue'er twisted and shook her body and said:
"Miss, Fang Gongzi is not as bad as you think, he is a decent man, and he has a quality in him, it is very comfortable to stay by his side, I can feel that he must not be a bad person."
"And that's him?"
Gao Youyao asked.
She and the maid Xue'er grew up together, and the relationship between the two is like a relative, this time it is said that she is looking for a son-in-law, but in fact, it is almost the same as finding a husband for Xue'er.
Naturally, she has to look at Cher's opinion.
And Gao Youyao didn't hate Lu Fang, but felt that this person, without a little consciousness, had fallen into something, and he still looked like a literati.
But that's fine, at least there's no problem with the character.
Next.
Lu Fang was reading the relevant records of Beicheng in the room, when Xue'er knocked on the door and walked in, "Young Master Fang, Miss's master has arrived, Miss asked you to go over and take a look at the master together." ”
"Okay." Lu Fang got up and followed him to the backyard of the mansion, and on the way he asked, "What is the illness of Master Gao?" Is it serious? ”
Xue'er sighed lightly: "My master ......"
Listening to Xue'er's brief introduction, Lu Fang learned that Master Gao was still a Confucian student, the kind with Haoran righteousness, but he was only a Confucian student in the Nine Rank Realm.
The old man was in good health before, but somehow, three months ago, he had a strange illness, and his body was getting weaker and weaker day by day.
Until now, it is often a time to fall into a coma and rarely be mentally awake.
As for Gao Youyao's master, it was Master Gao's friend named Wu Feng before, and she worshiped under his door when she was a child.
Conversations.
The two had already arrived at a courtyard, and Gao Youyao, not far away, was talking to a middle-aged man in his forties.
Lu Fang sensed that the other party was a six-rank martial artist, and secretly thought in his heart, this middle-aged man thought that it was that martial seal.
Gao Youyao made a gesture of please and said, "Master, you have seen a lot of knowledge in the rivers and lakes, just help my father to see if he has been poisoned, this strange disease came too suddenly." ”
