Chapter 2 Marriage
After eating, Liu Tianxu hurriedly went to the hall, and at this time in the main hall of the Liu family, the old man Liu Chongru was sitting on the main seat squinting his eyes and tasting fragrant tea, listening to a guard of the Liu family in front of him to report the information, in addition to Liu Chongru in the hall at this time, there were two people sitting on the left hand, one was nearly middle-aged, with a white face and no beard, and his figure was not tall, but it made people look as depressed as a mountain, this person was Liu Xunxiang's uncle, the number one real power person in the Liu family except for the old man of the Liu family in the Liu Mansion, Liu Tiandong.
There is a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy sitting next to Liu Tiandong with an honest face, but the Liu family knows in their hearts that this young man's heart is not as honest as it seems, this young man is Liu Tiandong's only son, Liu Long, who is known as the Qilin son of the Liu family.
The father and son looked at the guards kneeling in the hall with a leisurely expression, their eyes flashing with an inexplicable light.
"Tell the head of the family, the eldest master, the eldest young master, the little one has learned that Su Luo's daughter Su Zhiling was recommended to practice in the National Academy of Education a month ago, and the Holy Judgment of the National Academy has come down, and Su Zhiling is allowed to enter the National Academy to practice, and another person can be accompanied by him, and he will leave soon, this matter is true, Su Luo has entered the arrangement, and I heard that Qinghe City will also send a team of city guards to respond. ”
"Well, step aside. Liu Tiandong waved his hand, and his mood was exceptionally good.
"Hahahaha, God really help my son, Dad, we will prepare a gift and leave for Su Mansion now, no matter what, we must also fight for this personal quota, when the time comes, as long as Long'er enters the National Religious Academy, he will naturally soar to the sky, and he will definitely become a famous monk of the Song Kingdom in the future, and the lintel of glory will be glorious." After the guards retreated, Liu Tiandong stood up and said to Liu Chongru, and the more he talked, the more excited he became.
Liu Chongru played with the teacup in his hand as if he hadn't heard it, Liu Tiandong frowned when he saw this, and then turned his head to make a color to Liu Long, who was sitting on the side, and Liu Long instantly understood.
"Grandpa, Daddy, I'm a seven-foot man in Liulong, how can I be a slave of a girl, can't I step on the top of the path of cultivation to protect my Liu family for thousands of generations? After that, Liu Long looked at Liu Chongru, his eyes were firm: "Grandpa has done enough for his grandson, and his grandson has been powerless to repay him, so I implore grandpa not to fight for the name of this slave for his grandson." ”
Liu Chongru slowly put down the teacup, and a pair of old eyes flashed with appreciation: "Tiandong, although Long'er is young, he can see more clearly than you, how can this family be named after it, how can it be so easy to get." ”
Liu Tiandong immediately smiled and said: "What my father said is that Long'er has been smarter than the children in the clan since he was a child, and I, who is a father, sigh to myself, if you have a son, what more can you ask for." ”
Liu Chongru stood up and smiled with satisfaction, "Hehe, Long'er must not underestimate the name of this slave, what it contains is something that no family in the Song Kingdom can give, and besides, the little girl of Bingling is also a big one I have seen since I was a child, she is a beautiful embryo, if Long'er can get along with it for a long time, wouldn't it be close to the water, killing two birds with one stone?"
Liu Tiandong was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes flashed brightly, Jiang is still old and spicy, why didn't he think of this, no wonder, Su Zhiling is only about ten years old this year, who would consider this step of marriage: "It's still Dad, you think about it thoroughly, the background of the girl in Zhiling, if Long'er can marry, it will get twice the result with half the effort, but the daughter of the Su family is immediately a disciple of the National Education Academy, how does Su Luo see my Liu family." ”
When Liu Long heard Liu Chongru say that he wanted to pursue Bingling by himself, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, Su Zhiling himself had seen it, although he was a little younger, but that appearance was really cute, and when he grew up, he should be even more beautiful, and with his grandfather's family, why should he not be able to step on the top of the cultivation path.
Just as the three of them were worried about how to compete for the spot, there was the sound of footsteps outside the hall, and then a hearty voice was heard coming in.
"Dad, I have something to tell you. ”
I saw Liu Tianxu rushing into the hall in a hurry, and he didn't care about saluting his eldest brother Liu Tiandong.
Liu Chongru frowned, and said unhappily: "If there is anything to talk about later, your eldest brother and I have important things to do now." ”
After saying that, he waved his hand to let Liu Tianxu retreat.
"Dad, what I want to say is very important, the Su family may decide to give Xiang'er the quota for their relatives. Seeing this, Liu Tianxu didn't care about the other people in the hall, and hurriedly said to Liu Chongru.
"What!" Liu Chongru and Liu Tiandong, father and son, looked back at Liu Tianxu with a surprised expression.
"Liu Tianxu, you make it clear, what the hell is going on. Liu Tiandong, who reacted, asked in surprise.
Liu Chongru also became interested, picked up the teacup again in his seat, and asked, "Boss, tell me, what's going on?"
Immediately, Liu Tiandong told the whole thing about the causes and consequences of the whole thing, the more he heard the back, the more happy the faces of Liu Tiandong and Liu Long's father and son, and when he heard that Su Zhiling took the initiative to take Liu Xunxiang, Liu Tiandong's face showed a smile, and Liu Long's hands trembled slightly because of excitement.
After listening to what Liu Tianxu said, Liu Chongru took a deep breath and asked with a smile: "Old man, do you think this will work?" Xiang'er can't cultivate, even if she goes, it won't help the future of the Liu family, so it's better to let Xiang'er give up the quota to Long'er." ”
With Liu Chongru's words, Liu Tiandong smiled even more, it is really the road to the sky, so this quota is set in the Liu family, and Liu Xunxiang is a mortal who can't cultivate immortals, so this quota can't be up to you Liu Tianxu.
Liu Tianxu hesitated, but still shook his head.
"Why is the third uncle so obsessed, Long'er and his cousin are of the same ancestry, if Long'er can climb the immortal road and become an immortal, then my cousin will be the head of the Liu family, and my Liu family will also become the lord of the Song Dynasty at that time, and it will not fade for thousands of years. Seeing this, Liu Long hurriedly said.
Liu Tianxu looked at his nephew, a junior of his own life, and said with a smile: "When will the Liu family council have the share of your junior to speak, and dare to argue for the position of the head of the family, who gave you the courage?"
Liu Long's face suddenly turned red, but he didn't know how to refute, and he was a little embarrassed for a while.
Liu Tiandong said angrily: "Isn't it appropriate for my family Long'er to say? Long'er has the qualifications to cultivate immortals, which is a gift from God, as members of the Liu family, we should sacrifice our ego, everything is for the sake of the family, is it possible that someone thinks that when sacrificing, hide far away, and wait for my Liu family to become famous in the Song Kingdom, can we enjoy its blessings?"
"Big brother, you ......" Liu Tianxu said angrily.
Liu Chongru slapped the table and said: "Enough, this matter is so decided, let Long'er accompany the Su family girl when the time comes, as for Xiang'er, the family will give him satisfactory compensation." ”
Liu Tianxu looked at the three of them, calmed down his breath, and said word by word: "I will never agree to this matter, Dad, you'd better not force me." ”
After speaking, he walked out of the hall without looking back.
Liu Long looked at Liu Tianxu's departing back, and a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes.
"Rebel, the old man will let you know that the Liu family is still up to you, go, follow me to the Su family and make a marriage. Liu Chongru threw his hands behind his back, and strode out of the main hall, Liu Tiandong and his son looked at each other and smiled, and hurriedly followed.
"Did you hear that? The head of the family went to marry the Su family for the eldest young master. ”
There is no secret in the family at all, that is, if the young master accidentally touches his hand, it can spread throughout the entire mansion in an instant, and soon the people in the whole mansion know the news and begin to exchange ears.
"The eldest master is so blessed, he gave birth to an immortal baby, and I heard that the head of the family went to say goodbye to the eldest young master. ”
"Isn't our eldest young master the uncle of our Yuetian Town from now on?"
"What is a marriage, it is to propose. ”
"You know a fart, let me tell you, one is to propose marriage, and the other is that our young master is going to go to the State Religious Academy with the young lady, does the National Education Academy know? The old man of Emperor Song will be the dean himself, and in the future, our young master will be a disciple of Emperor Song." ”
"My God, that's Emperor Song. ”
One news after another spread ten, ten to hundred, and soon, the entire Liu family, including the townspeople around the Liu family, knew that the eldest young master of the Liu family was going to become the disciple of Emperor Song and the uncle of Yuetian Town.
The side members of the Liu family also went to visit Liu Tiandong's courtyard with generous gifts, in groups of three or five, everyone's eyes looked at Mrs. Liu with a smile on their faces, and they were different, some were envious, some were jealous, and some were hypocritical......
But Mrs. Liu doesn't care at all, as long as her son enters the National Religious Academy and marries Su Zhiling, then these distant relatives, even if they are angry, can only swallow in their stomachs, and they have to swallow with a smile on their faces, thinking of this, Mrs. Liu is even happier a lot.
On this day, I heard that Mrs. Liu, who has always been known for being stingy, rewarded her subordinates with a lot of silver.
There was a burst of laughter in the main hall of Su Mansion, Su Luo sat on the main seat and looked at Liu Chongru, naturally knowing what it was like for Liu Chongru to come to Su Mansion with heavy gifts at this time, just these few days, the door rails of Su Mansion were about to be flattened by people who came to visit.
Su Luo and Liu Chongru are both scheming and calculating, the two of them come and go, idle for a long time, stunned and didn't talk to the topic, Liu Tiandong on the side wanted to interject several times, but Liu Chongru glared back, Liu Long sat upright, and even the appearance of drinking tea was more particular than usual, if ordinary people don't know, they thought it was a disciple of a great Confucian in the Song Kingdom, but those eyes were always secretly looking around, as if they were looking for something.
"Is the nephew looking for someone?" A voice sounded in Liu Long's ears, Liu Long was suddenly shocked like a child who had done something wrong and was caught, and the hand holding the teacup also trembled, and the tea splashed on the gray cloth robe, and a red glow rose on his face.
Liu Tiandong turned his head to look, just saw Liu Long's appearance, rolled his eyes, and said: "Look at your unproductive appearance, you can't sit still after sitting for a while, and if you don't get out, it's embarrassing." Then he turned his head to Su Luo and said, "The dog is stubborn, he is out of nature by nature, and he can't sit still at home for a moment, and I hope Lord Su will forgive me." ”
"It's okay, it's okay, children, their personalities are a little normal, and the same is true for my girl, who doesn't fall into the house all day long. ”
Looking at Liu Long's hurried and panicked back, Su Luo said happily with a hint of playfulness in his eyes.
Liu Chongru answered: "Brother Su, you and I have been friends for many years, and my Liu family can have today's status in Yuetian Town, all thanks to your care, so I won't go around the bend, I came today, there is something to discuss."
"Oh, brother is polite, you and I don't have to be so polite, what's the matter, but it doesn't matter. Su Luo said in surprise.
"Old fox. Liu Tiandong scolded secretly in his heart, he didn't believe that Su Luohui didn't know what he was here for.
Liu Chongru pondered for a while, and said slowly: "Brother Su should also know that my Liu family is fortunate to have three lives, and finally has a junior who cultivates immortals, but my brother I am incompetent, and the Liu family has no ability to teach Long'er at all, fortunately, the senior of my Liu family heard that Long'er has the ability to cultivate immortals, and sent someone to send a letter, and after a while, he will come to pick up Long'er, and accept Long'er as an apprentice. ”
Liu Chongru used to have a brother, the elder brother was gifted by God, and had the qualification of cultivating immortals, and was later valued by an immortal chief and accepted as a disciple, but unfortunately he encountered an accident when he was doing something for his master, and the immortal chief who also lost it was still a little affectionate, and felt that he owed something to his apprentice, so he also took some care of Liu Chongru later, and Su Luo also knew about it.
Su Luo said with a smile: "Brother Liu, the qualifications of this nephew of Liu Long are obvious to everyone, now that he can get the guidance of that senior, he will definitely be the dragon and phoenix among people in the future, but unfortunately Su Mou's ability is limited, and he can't do his best for it, I am deeply ashamed, as for what Brother Liu said, what do you say?"
"Master Su, Ling Ai and my family Long'er have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, both of them are the pride of the sky, I came here today to discuss with Lord Su, and set up a family affair for the two, although the dog did not have the opportunity to enter the first-class immortal gate of the National Education Academy, but became the disciple of that senior, I think this identity, but it is not disgraceful to Ling Ai, in addition, our marriage, what kind of benefits will it bring to you and me, Lord Su will not be unclear. Liu Tianlong said with a hint of pride, he believed that Su Luo knew who the senior he was talking about was.
Su Luo was silent, he knew very well who the senior on the Liu family was, in the eyes of that senior, the name of the National Academy of Education was indeed nothing, and now the situation of the Su family was not very optimistic, and he had to find a big tree to lean on, so he looked at it, the one behind the Liu family was just right, but when did the Liu family contact the immortal senior, why didn't he receive the news at all.
"Brother Liu, the little girl is stubborn, I'm afraid that she has messed up the rules of the Liu family, in addition, I still need to discuss this matter with the little girl, I don't know if you can give some time?" Su Luo said cautiously, he needed time to confirm the authenticity of this matter.
Liu Tiandong was puzzled in his heart, and he didn't know when the senior had written to him, so he was worried that he was talking, so he kept it a secret, thinking of this, Liu Tiandong's waist was unconsciously straighter than before.
Liu Chongru nodded solemnly: "It's okay, this matter is important, so it will naturally take some time to think about it, but it's better to make a decision before the two children leave." ”
"That's nature. ”
