Chapter Eighty-Five: Family Affairs
"Master, you are finally back" In the afternoon, the sun went west, at the gate of Zhao's mansion, the carriage stopped, Zhao Changfeng just walked out of the carriage, and Mrs. Zhao, who had already waited for the door, called out with a happy face to greet him, and all the family members of Zhao's mansion also called out one after another, and the lord went forward.
"Madam" Zhao Changfeng also stepped out of the carriage, stretched out his hand to hold Mrs. Zhao's hand, smiled on his face, and said affectionately: "During this time, I am fortunate to be sorry for you." ”
Zhao Changfeng's words pierced the soft place in Mrs. Zhao's heart, thinking of what happened during this period of time, especially the two times that Shanmei came to kidnap Zhao Abao, and a few of the family members in the house died, I only felt an urge to cry, but seeing that everyone in the family was present at this moment, I couldn't bear the pain in my heart, but I bowed my head slightly and didn't say much, at this time, accompanied by Xiao Rong, Zhao Abao also came out.
When the "father" saw Zhao Changfeng, Zhao Abao also shouted in surprise, trotted over in three steps and two trots, and threw himself directly into Zhao Changfeng's arms as soon as he came up: "My daughter misses you so much." ”
"Good, good!" Hearing Zhao Abao's words, Zhao Changfeng also smiled on his face, and his heart was happy and pitiful: "I miss you for my father." ”
The father and daughter only hugged for a while before parting, and then the group walked into the mansion, and the entire Zhao Mansion overflowed with a festive color, Zhao Changfeng came back, for the entire Zhao Mansion, it was indeed a great joy, the whole Mansion was busy and lively, like an instant, the entire Zhao Mansion was celebrating the New Year.
Entering the house, the busy things are naturally handed over to the next person to do, Zhao Changfeng, Mrs. Zhao, and Zhao Abao found a quiet place to sit down, this time Zhao Changfeng went out but left for more than a month, and reunited after a long absence, naturally talked a lot, first there was a cold greeting between each other, and then they talked about their respective lives during this time.
At this time, Mrs. Zhao naturally didn't need to care about anything, and told everything that had happened in the Zhao Mansion in the past two months, from the murder at the beginning to the last incident of Shanmei's abduction of Zhao Abao twice, Zhao Changfeng's face was as unpredictable as the June sky.
Sometimes worried, sometimes angry, sometimes fist-clenched, worrying, only he can understand, he never thought that he had only been away for more than a month, so many things had happened, looking at his wife and daughter in front of him, Zhao Changfeng couldn't help but feel a deep guilt, as a man, he couldn't protect his wife and daughter at the most dangerous moment, but let them be frightened, I am afraid that for any man who has a sense of responsibility, it is a worrying and guilty thing.
"During this time, you have suffered from you?"
Groaning for a while, in the end, Zhao Changfeng could only turn into a leisurely sigh, looking at the wife and daughter in front of him, he felt guilty for a while, seeing the guilt in Zhao Changfeng's eyes, Mrs. Zhao and Zhao Abao's mother and daughter were also a little distressed, thinking that this time they couldn't blame Zhao Changfeng, Zhao Changfeng went out for them, and it may not be easy outside, so I couldn't help but say.
"Where does the master say, if you want to say that you are happy, among all the people in the family, you are the hardest. Mrs. Zhao said.
"Father, don't blame yourself too much, besides, isn't it okay for me to be with my mother?" Zhao Abao also said.
"Yes, people are fine, people are okay is the best. Zhao Changfeng also nodded when he heard this, there was a sense of happiness in his heart, he thought about it and said: "This time the house suffered a catastrophe, those dead family members, give their families more money and bury them, as for the rest of the people, give more wages for these two months." ”
"Well, okay!" Mrs. Zhao and Zhao Bao both nodded slightly in agreement.
"That master, what about that dream of immortality. After a pause, Mrs. Zhao said again, expressing the worries she had always had in her heart: "That dream Changsheng has always been obsessed with Ah Bao, and this time he saved Ah Bao, and now he somehow has a martial arts, I ..... it."
"Hmph, a poor scholar wants to marry my daughter, it's just wishful thinking. ”
Hearing this, but without waiting for Mrs. Zhao to finish speaking, Zhao Changfeng's face sank, and he snorted coldly, but he originally looked down on Meng Changsheng, plus the scar thing Meng Changsheng threatened him once, and later learned that Meng Changsheng had something to do with the people in the Tiger Village, and he had a bad impression of him to the bone, and at this moment he heard Mrs. Zhao say that Meng Changsheng still missed Zhao Abao, and immediately became angry.
"Don't look at what his identity is in his dream of Changsheng, a poor scholar, and he still wants to marry my Zhao Changfeng's daughter, the toad wants to eat swan meat, don't think about it. ”
Zhao Changfeng immediately became angry, and said, his words were full of disdain and contempt for Meng Changsheng, and Zhao Abao next to him was slightly uncomfortable when he heard the words, and he didn't know if it was because Meng Changsheng had saved him, and when he heard his father say that Meng Changsheng was worthless, he felt a little bad in his heart, and felt a little too much, but she had always been a good girl, but she would not refute it, even if she was uncomfortable, she would not show it.
"Daughter, don't worry, this time my father has already found you a wishful husband, I am sure to make you satisfied, that dream of Changsheng is not in a hurry, in a few days, our family will go to Hangzhou. ”
Zhao Changfeng said again, but it surprised Mrs. Zhao and Zhao Abao, but the mother and daughter behaved differently, Mrs. Zhao was surprised, and Zhao Abao felt upset for no reason.
"This time, Bao's marriage has been negotiated for his father, and it is Ma Mingyu, the son of Ma Lian Ma's family, who is sentenced by the Hangzhou County Law Department. Zhao Changfeng said, saying this, his face and eyes all showed a look of pride for a moment: "Lord Ma Lian Ma is the justice of Hangzhou County, in charge of the entire Hangzhou County Justice, the same age as me, it is my old friend, and Master Ma's father Master Ma Qiong is a servant of the court, that is the third rank of the dynasty, and he is a high and powerful position." ”
"Servant!" Hearing this, Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but exclaim, her eyes were full of horror and surprise, it was really too amazing for such a big man, although their Zhao family was powerful in Chen County, but it was not enough to see it when they got out of Chen County, not to mention that in front of such figures, when they were the imperial servants, they were a high-ranking and powerful figure in the entire Wu Dynasty.
Even Zhao Abao couldn't help but show surprise, Zhao Changfeng's eyes kept paying attention to the mother and daughter, and when he saw the surprise on the faces of the mother and daughter, he couldn't help but feel more satisfied.
"That Ma Mingyu is the only son of Master Ma Lianma, that is, the grandson of the servant Ma Qiongma, and the age is similar to that of Bao, you should marry him, it should be the most suitable. Looking at Zhao Abao, Zhao Changfeng continued: "That Ma Mingyu has also seen it personally as his father, he is dignified, handsome and extraordinary, and he is a famous talent in Hangzhou Academy.
Zhao Changfeng opened his mouth and only praised Ma Mingyu to the sky, and Mrs. Zhao next to him only listened with joy, thinking that this Ma family is so prominent, and this Ma Mingyu is so outstanding, if this family affair is formed, it will be really gratifying, whether it is for Zhao Abao or for his Zhao family, it can be described as a great joy.
Zhao Abao was also moved by Zhao Changfeng's words, and was originally a little upset when he heard about this marriage, but at this moment, he heard that his father said that the Ma family was so prominent, and how Ma Mingyu was outstanding and excellent, not only with a prominent background, but also with both talent and appearance, only to feel closer and closer to the person in his mind, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved.
"Bao, you are still satisfied with this family business that your father chose for you. Seeing that what he said was almost over, Zhao Changfeng also stopped continuing to brag about the Ma family and Ma Mingyu, but looked at Zhao Abao and asked.
Zhao Abao is a person who is obedient to her parents, not to mention that at this moment, she herself was also a little tempted by Zhao Changfeng's words about Ma Mingyu, so naturally she would not refute it, and said in a low voice.
"It's all up to Daddy!"
When Zhao Changfeng saw Zhao Abao's posture like this, he couldn't see that Zhao Abao was also moved, and immediately laughed, and Mrs. Zhao next to him also had a smile on her face when she saw this.
