Chapter 551: Good things come in pairs, but it's not enough, so that you can win the eyes of others

The Zhang family had already married three granddaughters-in-law before, and now this time coincided with the Northern Expedition, and the future groom official was just a prison student who had not yet become a proclamator, as if it should not be eye-catching. However, this is the marriage of two families close to the Wu'an Hou Hutong, one is the marquis's daughter, and the other is the grandson of the Zhang family.

Since this was negotiated by the two elders a long time ago, the insight had been prepared in secret, so now although it is in a hurry, it does not seem to be in a hurry, and the procedures are all perfect, and even Aunt Zhang, who was completely kept in the dark earlier, gradually died. is so aggressive, even if it is really Mrs. Zhengfang's intention to hide from Zheng Heng, this marriage has become a foregone conclusion.

Daughter Zheng Fangfei is only fourteen years old now, and she doesn't know how many times she has quietly tried Zheng Heng in this marriage, every time Zheng Heng said with a smile that she will definitely choose a good family affair, and she doesn't know how many times she counted the children of the noble people of the right age in Jingshi, but she never expected that it would end up in the Zhang family.

The door of the Zhang family is naturally not weak, but it is the second room that has won the title, and her future son-in-law's father has just returned from Jiaoluan, just such an inconspicuous Shuntian mansion. Not to mention that compared with the second room of the Zhang family, even the third room is now more conspicuous. If only that old lady could have ten or eight years of life, but it was already a big tree that was about to fall in the blink of an eye!

This one is not very happy to pick and choose, and the Zhang family naturally has countless people who pay attention to the future long-term chief and granddaughter-in-law. Due to his grandmother's illness and the preparation of the marriage, Zhang Zhen asked the Guozijian for two months of leave. It's just that the marriage is imminent, but he spends more time being fiddled around like a hanger, but the elders can't disobey. It was rare to have leisure on this day, he really couldn't stand it, so he simply quietly went out of the house with two entourages and slipped to Xipailou Lane to find Fang Jing to complain.

"I've only met that girl once, and if I knew that my grandmother was the one who picked her, I had to look carefully when I went to Wu'anhou's house to pay New Year's greetings last year. I just remember that it was a childish kid with a childish face, and nothing else...... I heard that she is the daughter of Wu Anhou in the palm of her hand, and I am just a prisoner...... Hey, I don't want to marry a who takes advantage of her mother's power to oppress people! ”

Fang Jing's size has jumped by more than half a head from last year to this year, and he is about the same height as Zhang Zhen, at this time, he saw this friend who was born as a proud son of heaven wrinkling his face and sighing, and couldn't help laughing: "The old lady is such a shrewd person, and she loves you so much, how could she choose someone with a bad temperament and character to be your daughter-in-law?" Fourth Brother Zhang put 10,000 hearts, you may have seen other people's homes many times, but I just didn't tell you. Men always want to get married, that is, Brother Wan, don't you have a sweetheart? ”

"Hopefully ......"

The heavy stone in Zhang Zhen's heart never let go. He has never cared about the girls around him, and he doesn't know how many new faces he has experienced over the years, but he has also experienced personnel. Among the three sisters-in-law in the family, the sister-in-law is a virtuous and good old man, and in the past few years, all the girls that the eldest brother has touched have been accommodated, and the fennel who gave birth to a son has become an aunt; The second sister-in-law is bitter and mean, but no matter how mean she is, she can't resist the second brother's greed for freshness, and she can't stop the second brother from messing with flowers and grass outside; The third sister-in-law is not only generous, but also capable, and no one can find faults, even the third uncle's red aunt who stayed in the mansion often praises her for her kindness.

Even if he can't be like the third sister-in-law, but he can be like the eldest sister-in-law, he won't learn from the eldest brother to raise an outer room outside!

"Little Four, what are you muttering!"

Hearing the voice behind him, Zhang Zhen couldn't help but be startled, and when he turned his head, he saw that it was Wan Shijie and Xia Ji standing behind him with a smile, and when he came back to his senses, he actually found that Fang Jing didn't know when he was gone. He didn't know if he really said something just now, so he hurriedly stood up and bowed and shouted Brother Xia.

"It's all my own family, what are you doing with so many courtesies!" Wan Shijie dragged it up, and flicked a finger on his head, "I've been so busy these days, it's easy to take a half-day vacation, and I happened to meet Xiao Xia at the mouth of the alley and came back early." Good boy, you are younger than me, but now you are going to marry a daughter-in-law, we have to congratulate you! By the way, Xiao Xia is going out, and he will go home to get married, he can't drink your wedding wine! ”

"Brother Xia is also getting married?" Zhang Zhen was stunned for a moment, and saw Xia Ji's face smiling like a flower, and he was also happy for him in his heart, and said a few congratulations again and again. He often went here to ask for homework when he was resting in the country, and he naturally couldn't get acquainted with the two of them. Finding that Xia Ji's happiness was a little unusual, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Xia is so happy, could it be that he married a sweetheart who he has long taken a fancy to?" ”

"It's his childhood sweetheart's cousin, of course he's happy!"

Hearing Wan Shijie's straightforward piercing of his heart, Xia Ji, who was embarrassed and angry, suddenly glared at him fiercely, and then ignored him, pulled Zhang Zhen aside and muttered some common sense about the groom's official needs, and then went straight back to the house. And as soon as he left, Wan Shijie stepped forward and said to Zhang Zhen: "In the future, one by one will get married, I'm afraid it's not so easy to come out, now that I have a good drink." I sent Xiao Fang to the place at the entrance of the alley to buy wine and food, as for this wine...... I recently inquired about a good place, so let's go buy it together. ”

Although he drank as much as Zhang Yue, he drank a glass at most when relatives and friends gathered, but after opening his mouth on Wanshijie, Zhang Zhen didn't want to go home to be a target at this time, so he immediately agreed. He instructed his two attendants to stay here and watch the door, and he and Wan Shijie went out together. Riding a horse and turning through several small alleys, he gradually lost his direction, and found that the old horse of the Wanshijie seemed to know the way, he couldn't help but be amazed by this kung fu who was looking for good wine to drink, and immediately remembered what Fang Jing said just now.

Brother Wan also has a sweetheart? Who would that be?

He was thinking about it, and he didn't notice at all, Wan Shijie got off his horse and entered a small wine shop with a low façade, and still rode his horse forward. After walking for a short time, he suddenly came to his senses, but when he looked left and right, he didn't find anyone, and then he was taken aback, and hurriedly turned his horse's head and walked back. However, this area was originally a place where ordinary people lived, and there were many people and roads, so he was confused after going around two circles, so he had to get off the horse and ask for directions.

Just as he was asking an old man how to get to the West Pailou Lane, he suddenly caught a glimpse of several figures coming out of a teahouse not far away. Most of them were unfamiliar faces, but one of them struck him as familiar, as if he had seen them somewhere. In this distraction, he didn't hear the old man's nagging instructions for turning left and right and going straight, and only looked at the people who got on their horses. It wasn't until someone tapped him on the shoulder that he woke up.

"You kid, I bought wine and came out to find that you didn't know where to go, and you turned out to be asking for directions here!"

A man on a horse over there had already noticed Zhang Zhen staring at him, but when he heard this shouting, and saw that the new person was pulling people to the side angrily, he was relieved, turned his head and beckoned the group to leave. And after Zhang Zhen complained to Wan Shijie for a few words, he still glanced at the remaining person who was riding alone in the opposite direction, and suddenly remembered where he had seen him.

Isn't that Cheng Jiu, who has come to the house several times with Lu Feng?

Wan Shijie pulled Zhang Zhen out to buy wine, who knew that he lost people, he was originally angry and funny, but when he just stepped forward, he found that Zhang Zhen only cared about looking at others, but he didn't find that people had paid attention to him, so he interrupted. At this moment, seeing that the head of the Zhang family, Sun Sun, showed a suddenly realized expression, he carefully stuffed the urn of wine back into the horse coat, and dragged people on the horse alive.

"I said Zhang Xiaosi, even if you recognize people, how can you stare at others like this without squinting? If someone else is doing a secret thing, and they see you find out, maybe they will do it. You have to catch a glimpse of someone like me, for example! ”

Zhang Zhen, who was suspicious in his heart, saw the demonstration action of sneaking a peek at Wanshijie, he was stunned at first, and then laughed so much that he almost fell off the horse. After laughing easily, he told Wan Shijie about the person he had just recognized, and then he couldn't help but be a little afraid.

"Brother Wan is right, I shouldn't have stared at people at that time, after all, it was from Dongchang. By the way, did they just notice that I recognized them...... If I did, wouldn't it ......?"

"I'm just talking, you're really interested!" Wan Shijie shook his head angrily, with a look of indifference, "Since you said that it is Dongchang, then it will be fine." Those are the most brutal characters, I didn't do anything to you just now, I'm afraid I forgot about it afterwards. Well, don't think so much about it, go back drinking! ”

Back at home, he drunk two prospective groom officials who had already set a lifelong event, but he went to the kitchen to ask Wen Bo to cook a bowl of sobering soup. A bowl of hot soup was in his stomach, and he felt that the wine was relieved, and he told Wen Bo to wait until the two of them woke up and tell them to go to their errands, and then went out again. Stumbling outside and easily flipping onto the horse's back, he couldn't help but tilt his head and groan.

In the past few days, the military headquarters has been reporting constantly, and it should not be long before the division will be completed, but the atmosphere in the DPRK and China is very strange. Zhao Xuan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, has often been inexplicably bright in the past few days, and there are still some strange rumors behind his back, saying that something is like the old things of Yongle in the twelfth year. According to this reason, even if the emperor defeats the Uliangha, this triumph may have to change its flavor...... The whereabouts of the people in Dongchang are secretive, isn't there something wrong?

After thinking about it, Wan Shijie's eyes lit up, and he suddenly thought of the best idea, and he didn't care that he was half drunk at this moment, so he slapped it on the horse stock and ran out at a gallop. Having found the gate of the house which he had frequented some time ago, he jumped off his horse and leaped up two steps in a hurry, when he saw that someone had come out of it.

"Little Five Girls!"

"Brother Wan?" Xiao Wu saw Wan Shijie's surprised and happy smiling face, so he went down the steps briskly to say hello. Smelling that he still smelled of alcohol, she couldn't help but wonder, "It's not yet time for dinner, why did you drink wine?" ”

"Isn't it for the sake of congratulating Zhang Xiaosi and Xiaoxia, the two prospective groom officials!" Wan Shijie was a little drunk at this time, and when he saw Xiao Wu suddenly realized, he sighed and said, "Both of them are younger than me, and now they are going to marry wives, but I am still a bare pole, it is really depressing to think about." When will I be able to wear red flowers again? ”

Seeing Wanshijie talking and talking, as if there was some weakness under his legs, Xiao Wu couldn't help but be startled, forgot about everything else at once, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him. Dragged the person to the door, she repeatedly ordered Yue Shan to wring a cold towel, and immediately said: "My sister also told me a story at the beginning, well, it was General Huo. People say that the Huns have not been destroyed, why do you think of your family, you are still a manly husband, I am not afraid of being married at this age, what are you afraid of! Ah, you've been busy for the past few months, and it seems like it's the first time you've come to see Daddy, right? If you go in drunk, you have to attract his cold face! ”

The sky is not afraid of the earth, but it is afraid of angering the future father-in-law Wanshijie, but the nondescript comfort in front of Xiao Wu made him snicker in his stomach. It was easy to clean up, and Xiao Wu covered the wine on his body with a few flavors of medicinal herbs, he was naturally grateful, and when Xiao Wu went out with a smile and got into the car and left, he restrained the urge to chase after him and turned back to enter the door.

Du Zhen heard Qiu Shi say that he often visited Wanshijie during his imprisonment, and volunteered to help a lot, plus this is Zhang Yue's friend, so when he heard that Wanshijie came to see him, he thought for a moment and ordered someone to lead him directly into the study. He has always been a cold person, so he is not very accustomed to an uncle on Wanshijie, and when the other party said with embarrassment the coincidence when he went to buy wine with Zhang Zhen today, he immediately remembered what Yang Shiqi said.

"Do you see clearly?"

"Fourth Brother Zhang recognized it, I don't know that person well, so I can't confirm it, but I wrote down the place. Because this matter is really strange, and Yuan Jie is not there, it is difficult for Yang Ge to find people in the cabinet every day, so although he knows that his uncle is still recuperating now, he has always said before Yuan Jie that his uncle is good at making decisions with his eyes like a torch, and I can only come here to ask for an idea. ”

Du Zhen was pondering, and suddenly heard the last sentence, and couldn't help but look up at Wanshijie. Eyes like torches and good at making decisions...... He understands Zhang Yue's temperament very well, how can he praise him so much behind people? remembered that his wife had praised Wanshijie for her good temperament and good character, and he couldn't help but remember the situation when she wanted to marry her daughter to Zhang Yue.

The female university is not staying, this sentence is really true at all.
