Chapter 319 Reluctance
Xu Ningyuan glanced at Zhou Huaishan in the distance. With a quick glance, except for himself, who knew that he was looking at Zhou Huaishan, others might think that he just raised his eyes casually.
Looking away, Xu Ningyuan smiled and said: "I'm here to recruit talents, aren't I?"
Zhou Ping said with a sullen face, "I'm not a three-year-old child."
"I know, you are six years old." Xu Ningyuan said amusedly: "If you were three years old, I wouldn't come either."
"You need 20 dowries to add to your talent recruitment? Don't tell me I'm six, even if I'm three, I wouldn't believe it!"
As Zhou Ping spoke, he suddenly saw a hint of loneliness in Xu Ningyuan's eyes.
The moment this word appeared in Zhou Ping's mind, he was shocked.
Could it be that I, Zhou Ping, am so awesome that I can read minds?
I can see an accurate word by looking into people's eyes?
I wipe it!
The awesomeness is booming!
Zhou Ping stared at Xu Ningyuan for another moment, and then said: "Forget it, if you don't want to say it, forget it. When my sister comes back tomorrow, I will have a chance to ask my brother-in-law, where can I find you?"
"Shen Li knows."
Not sure if it was because he was paranoid or something else, Zhou Ping always felt that when Xu Ningyuan said this, his tone was different from when he just teased him.
After looking at Xu Ningyuan again, Zhou Ping turned around and left the small pavilion.
After walking a few steps out of the pavilion, Zhou Ping couldn't help but look back. He felt that Xu Ningyuan sitting in the pavilion was so out of place with the lively and festive atmosphere outside the pavilion.
He looked really lonely.
wipe!
Why is it this word again!
Zhou Ping scratched the back of his head, turned around and ran away.
Seeing Zhou Ping's back disappear, Xu Ningyuan smiled and leaned on the railing, looking at Zhou Huaishan not far away.
Those who came to support the Zhou family today are all the old friends of Rongyang Hou.
Twenty years later, there are only so many people left who can survive the growth cycle.
Marquis Lide was over eighty years old, and he came tremblingly on crutches.
Now that I'm here, I can't do anything, so I can only sit on a chair and have fun.
Glancing at Marquis Lide, who was drooling with joy, Xu Ningyuan smiled and cursed in a low voice, "Idiot!"
However, tears slipped out of the corners of his eyes.
yes!
Twenty years!
How many twenty years can there be in life!
But those who were close to Marquis Rongyang back then, those who are still alive today, are all here today.
They all knew that Zhou Huaishan was not their playmate, Rongyang Marquis.
But, it's not important.
They just want to give an outlet for the feelings that have been accumulated for twenty years in their hearts.
It just so happened that Zhou Huaishan was their exit.
Not only they have the same name, but everything they do makes them feel miserable.
When the Marquis of Rongyang was still alive, because the Marquis of Rongyang had eight sons and no daughter, everyone joked that if he had a daughter and they got married in the future, they would only add more makeup according to their wishes.
Unexpectedly, so many people would remember this joke.
Today, when there was so much makeup covering Zhou's yard, he almost cried.
This is not a dowry!
Xu Ningyuan, who fought on the battlefield, scolded Fang Qiu, refused to show favor to anyone in the court, did not join cliques or cliques, and quickly turned himself into a rich man, was sitting in the pavilion with tears in his eyes. Fuzzy, hands on knees, shaking badly.
His life was given by Marquis Rongyang.
Without Marquis Rongyang, he would have starved to death among the refugees.
Joined the army at the age of eight.
It's true, this is almost becoming a legend.
But who knows why he joined the army at the age of eight! What eight year old wants to join the fucking army!
However, this was his only way out at the time.
Either follow Rongyang Marquis and work as a servant for him, or take a silver ingot given by Rongyang Marquis and find a way out on your own, or Rongyang Marquis throws him into the military camp.
Of these three choices, he chose the third one without even thinking about it.
The military camp is over.
At that time, Marquis Rongyang was only in his twenties, and he was no different from other dudes, just doing nothing but fighting cocks and walking around.
But on the day he was sent to the military camp, Marquis Rongyang personally found a master for him. That master was a right-hand general in the army at that time.
pity
After the incident in the Rongyang Marquis Mansion, the right-hand general also had an incident. Later, when he got the news and wanted to fish for someone, he no longer knew where he was.
The old events passed through his mind one by one. Xu Ningyuan knew for the first time that people's memories could be so good.
In this room, the dignified commander-in-chief of the army was crying like a fool.
In that room, Zhou Huaishan stood in the room with a cold face.
Zhou Huailin pressed his shoulders twice, but did not push him to the seat to sit down.
"Second brother, sit down. What's going on? Shen Li is here!"
It’s time for the groom to pay his respects to his father-in-law and serve tea and call him daddy.
After this stage, the groom will go to pick up the bride, and then the newlyweds will say goodbye to their parents together, get into the sedan chair at the auspicious time, and set off.
Seeing the auspicious time approaching, but Zhou Huaishan was stuck here, Zhou Huailin was sweating profusely.
Zhou Huaishan looked impatient and waved his hand to push Zhou Huailin away, "I'm not blind! I saw him coming."
Shen Li was opposite Zhou Huaishan. He was dressed in a wedding robe and looked refreshed and dignified. The smile on his face could not be suppressed.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Huaishan felt unhappy.
What the hell!
His daughter will have to live with such a bitch man for the rest of her life!
Wang Jin stood beside Zhou Huaishan and poked Zhou Huaishan's waist, "Brother Shan, it's almost done. This is a marriage granted by imperial decree. How can you go back on it? The dowry is gone!"
Zhou Huaishan glared at him, "Do I need that little dowry?"
Zhao Dacheng immediately said: "What nonsense are you talking about? What my brother Shan needs is a dowry? What my brother Shan needs is a girl!"
Eight sons!
All I need is a girl!
Zhou Huaishan ignored them and did not wait for Shen Li to come forward to offer him tea. He just stood there and said to Shen Li, who was a few steps away from him: "Old Shen!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place fell silent in shock.
A group of old dudes looked at Zhou Huaishan intently.
Lao Shen?
Not to mention them, Shen Li was shocked. His eyes twitched and he looked at Zhou Huaishan, "Dad!"
Children of officials in Kyoto are generally called father.
But when Zhou Qing calls him daddy, he also calls him daddy. Moreover, calling him daddy feels cordial.
Zhou Huaishan said with a cold face, "Old Shen, my daughter will be handed over to you from now on. If you dare to bully my daughter, let me know. I don't care what kind of bullshit commander you are, I will definitely come to you." "
Shen Li hurriedly cupped his fists and raised his hands.
"Dad, there is no need to knock on the door. After we get married, we will still live here."
Zhou Huaishan nodded with satisfaction, nodded twice, and suddenly realized something. His eyelids twitched, and he looked at Shen Li in surprise, "What did you say?"
Shen Li said: "Xiao Xu knows that dad can't let go of his daughter, and Xiao Xu can't bear to separate Zhou Qing from his father and daughter, so after we get married, we will still live here."
After a pause, Shen Li slowly added, "This will also make it easier for you to tutor me in your studies and pass the Jinshi exam."
At this moment, Zhou Huaishan just wanted to pick up the broom and beat this bitch out!
Listen!
Is this human language?
ah!
