Chapter 486: Jinhang Road

Jinling City is not far from Yangzhou to the north, and out of Jiangsu to the south, and Hangzhou is not far from Zhejiang after entering Zhejiang. Of course, Hangzhou is much farther than Yangzhou, and there are several capitals in between. Compared with Yangzhou and Jinling, which are close to Beiqing, Hangzhou, as the hinterland of the south of the Yangtze River, seems to be a lot more "leisurely".

On the official road from Hangzhou to Jinling, except for scattered refugees, there are few commercial vehicles and pedestrians.

But this is not because of the rain, but because whether it is from Hangzhou to the north or from the north to Hangzhou, most people will choose the waterway, and the number of people who take the official road is much less. And now it is the spring rain and flood, coupled with the tense situation in Nanqing, and Hangzhou is in the hinterland, so this is not more lively than Jinling and Yangzhou, and it seems a little leisurely.

At this time, on the official road from Hangzhou City to Jinling in the rain, there was a lonely carriage, squeaking forward, bringing a trace of sound to this deserted official road. Although this carriage looks a little shabby, the characters sitting in the carriage are not simple at all!

Bai Qinghe, as the famous Confucian of the world, the only son died on the battlefield, this old man can be said to be full of fame, and his reputation is resounding throughout Daqing. Even if it is Nanqing who is a first-class official, after seeing him, he needs to bow respectfully and call Mr. Bai!

It stands to reason that he has reached the age of sixtieth birthday, and he should have spent his old age in his homeland of Jinling. But now, he appeared on the official road outside Hangzhou, sitting in this somewhat shabby-looking carriage......

There are not many things in the world that can make this great Confucian in the world, at the age of the sixtieth century, make such a big move. In other words, there should be only one thing, and that is the marriage of his granddaughter Bai Suzhen!

Bai Suzhen, as Bai Qinghe's only relative, is also the person who gives this great Confucian the most headache.

Bai Suzhen, as a woman who said "Bento has no eyebrows in the world", is full of legend in herself, and she has a charming appearance, not to mention her family background. Whether it is Nanqing or Beiqing, no one of the young talents is unwilling to be the grandson-in-law of Bai Qinghe, the great Confucian of the world, and at the same time, all the scholars in the world are like conquering this woman who speaks wildly.

But as a result, they all lost to Bai Suzhen one after another, making the reputation of this "strange woman" even more famous. But Bai Qinghe, the great Confucian of the time, was not happy about this.

Of course, Bai Qinghe was also proud of his granddaughter's intelligence, and he also felt that his granddaughter was not allowed to shave her eyebrows...... But now, he finally knows the truth of "a woman is virtuous if she is not talented".

Seeing that he is getting older and older, and the marriage of his granddaughter is still unsettled. All the young talents he was looking for, from the sons of high-ranking officials and nobles, to the sons of wealthy merchants, even ordinary scholars in cloth clothes, were "defeated" by her again and again, and rejected again and again!

Although the order of his parents and the words of the matchmaker are great, Bai Qinghe can't bear to see his only granddaughter unhappy, and he doesn't want to forcibly marry him, so he has been following the meaning of his granddaughter, trying to find a man who can surpass her in literary talent and martial arts.

There are so many men in the world, but Bai Qinghe has never found such a person. It wasn't until a month ago, before the Jiangnan Poetry Club, that he held a wedding conference for his granddaughter in Jinling, that things finally took a turn for the better.

At that time, she listened to the strange questions that her granddaughter said, and she couldn't answer the questions that the great Confucian of the world couldn't answer, and she thought that she was going to be in vain. But I didn't expect that there was a ...... named Shi Yuan Bastard, he had a good time talking with his granddaughter.

Although he heard others say that this Shi Yuan was a fallen scholar picked up by the old lady of the Lin family in Jinling, from a humble background, and he was also giggling at that time, and he was completely out of shape, but fortunately, this kid was talented and learned, and his granddaughter was also very abnormal at that time, and even said something like "marry him" unusually.

Seeing that his wish for so many years has finally been settled, Bai Qinghe can't say how happy he is. Therefore, he didn't care about Shi Yuan's background at all, and announced his granddaughter's marriage in public at that time, and almost held a wedding for the two of them in public!

But unexpectedly, the bastard boy shirked it, and he also babbled a paragraph that he didn't know at all:

"Please, old man white! Your future grandson-in-law's family lives in B1, No. 101, Qiantang County, his name is Xu Hanwen, he has an older sister, and a brother-in-law who works as a fast catcher in Yamen. Your granddaughter and he will meet on the broken bridge of West Lake on March 3rd! Please don't pester me anymore, OK?

……

Now that I think about it, I really shouldn't have believed this kind of pretending to be a ghost at the time. Instead, he should have tied up that kid directly, and it was only right to marry his granddaughter.

But he believed it at the time, because after all, he was a great Confucian in the world, and he couldn't do such a thing. And before the Qingming Festival, he brought his granddaughter from Jinling to Hangzhou. Yesterday, I was stupidly holding an umbrella in the rain, looking for a long time in the West Lake, in such a heavy rain, let alone that Xu Hanwen, it is difficult to even see a figure!

Only then did he realize that he had been smacked by that kid! At this time of the Qingming Festival, most people go outside the city to burn incense and worship their ancestors.

"Shi Yuan, that bastard boy, when I go back this time, I must ask him for an explanation!" Bai Qinghe, who was in the car, said a word with a glare. After saying that, it seems that it was because of the excessive force, and I couldn't help coughing.

Seeing this, Bai Suzhen, who was sitting on the side, hurriedly patted his back with his hand, took out a blanket from the side, and draped it over his grandfather, and then said with some disgust: "Grandpa, the weather is slightly cold, you were infected with wind chill in the rain yesterday, we can stay in Hangzhou for a few more days, and we will come back when the weather improves and your condition is better!" You're ...... like that."

After Bai Qinghe finished coughing, he took a heavy breath, and then waved his hand at Bai Suzhen and said, "Suzhen, I'm fine!" A few days ago, Lin Chengming promised his granddaughter to that kid, I wanted to go to him at that time, but you stopped me. If it's too late to go back this time, and the Lin family gets married, how can this happen? ”

Hearing her grandfather talk about this, Bai Suzhen's face couldn't help but be slightly embarrassed, and she was silent for a long time, and then she said lightly: "Grandpa, maybe my granddaughter should be like this, and it's no wonder that other people's ......"

What do you mean? My Bai Qinghe's granddaughter is still worthy of his bastard boy? Hearing his granddaughter's words, Bai Qinghe couldn't help but interrupt it loudly. A moment of annoyance caused him to cough again......

This is just out of Hangzhou, not far away, to Jinling, to say the least there are still four or five days away, and it is raining again...... Bai Suzhen looked at her grandfather like this, and her face was full of sorrow for a while......
