I left with excitement and came with a heavy heart.
Matchmaker Li looked at Dr. Xu with a smile on his face, and became more and more angry. Dr. Wu said:
"They are both doctors, but their quality of life is so different."
However, Xu Xian's marriage proposal has been declined by Wu Renjie, and Matchmaker Li is a little uneasy:
"Dr. Xu, yesterday you asked me to talk to the boy Xu Xian about the matchmaking. I have already been to Dr. Wu's house. I have to talk to Dr. Xu about some things, and explain them thoroughly, so as not to create barriers between us."
Doctor Xu's heart sank when he heard this, but he was not too disappointed. The final result of this matter was already expected:
"Grandma Li, if you have anything to say, just say it straight away. We are all fellow villagers. We don't see each other when we look up. There is no need to beat around the bush."
After hearing this, Matchmaker Li smiled softly and said somewhat sarcastically:
"This time I went to the home of Dr. Wu, the president of the Three Emperors Patriarch Association, to propose marriage to Xu Xian, and I have already received a reply."
"Doctor Wu said that if Xu Xian wants to marry Miss Yulian, he must show a certain degree of sincerity."
"Sincerity?"
Doctor Xu was overjoyed, could there be something wrong:
"What's your sincerity? Granny Li, just say it. As long as I can do it, I won't hesitate to give it my all."
Matchmaker Li said:
"This is not a matter of money. Doctor Wu put forward two conditions. If you can meet them, there is still hope for this marriage. If you cannot do it, there is not much hope for this marriage."
Dr. Xu listened quietly, paying attention to every word, for fear that if he missed a word, it would affect his son's marriage.
"The two conditions are that one is that he hopes that Xu Xian can achieve the title of the most talented person in the world, and feels that only the most talented person in the world can be worthy of his daughter."
"The second is that he hopes to have a child in the future who can inherit the Wu family business so that the Wu family will not be wiped out."
"The most talented man in the world...the adopted child inherits the incense?"
Doctor Xu repeated it unconsciously, with a bitter look on his face:
"This does not mean that I have agreed to the matter between the two of them. This is clearly a polite rejection of my Xu Xian."
Matchmaker Li was a little embarrassed:
"More or less, there is still some hope at last. Maybe lovers can get the protection of Yue Lao and finally be able to be together."
"With your good words, I have to think carefully about what to do."
Doctor Xu was a little confused and his hair was pale and unforgiving:
"Grandma Li, why don't you go back after eating here."
Matchmaker Li said:
"No, no, think about it carefully. If you can really do these two things, I will definitely send the beautiful woman to your mansion."
After seeing off Matchmaker Li, Doctor Xu sat blankly in the security hall:
"In Qiantang, Zhang Yutang is the smartest, and it is said that he has incredible magical powers. Every word he writes is the truth and the great road, and he can be praised by sages of all ages."
"If I want Xu Xian to achieve good results in the World's Best Talents Conference, I can only ask Zhang Yutang to see if he has any good ideas."
Doctor Xu didn't care much about incense. If Xu Xian could actually give birth to two sons in the future and adopt one to Wu Renjie, there would be no problem.
If it was an only child, there would be no way to talk about adoption.
…
After a brief tidying up, Doctor Xu came to the Holy Master's Mansion alone.
In the Holy Master's Mansion, Zhang Yutang had already returned from Sui Yuanju and was sitting in the courtyard reading a book.
"Sir, Doctor Xu is here."
Abao came to report:
"If you want him to come in, please give me your instructions."
"Of course I want to meet him. He is Xu Jiaorong's father. He is the same generation as my father. I have to go and greet him."
Zhang Yutang put down the book in his hand and beamed:
"Abao, go and call Xu Jiaorong over and tell her not to allow the doctor to come to see your daughter."
"Yes, sir."
Abao left in response. After a while, Xu Jiaorong trotted to the yard. Doctor Xu also walked in, chatting and laughing with Zhang Yutang.
After asking Dr. Xu to sit down, Zhang Yutang also did so. Xu Jiaorong stood behind Zhang Yutang and glanced at Dr. Xu from time to time. She also wanted to know what Dr. Xu came to see Zhang Yutang for.
Zhang Yutang looked at Dr. Xu, who was looking a bit sad when he was silent, and his face straightened:
"Uncle Xu, if you have anything to do, just tell me."
"Oh, that's it."
Doctor Xu repeated Matchmaker Li's words and sighed:
"Xu Xian is diligent and studious, but his talent is limited. He failed the exam twice, so how can he become the most talented person in the world? This is clearly a rejection of my son."
After Zhang Yutang listened:
"Uncle Xu, you plan to ask me to help Xu Xian gain the title of the best talent in the world. How can I help?"
"Even myself, I am not sure that I will become the most talented person in the world."
Doctor Xu said:
"I also know that this is a bit overwhelming. I am in urgent need of medical treatment now. I just have the attitude of giving it a try. If it works, the better. If not, I can only do my best and listen to fate."
Zhang Yutang pondered for a moment:
"Okay, Uncle Xu, please wait for me at home. Let me think about it and see if there is any way that can help people enlighten themselves and become extremely smart people."
Enlightenment?
Suddenly, the story in The New White Snake that Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva enlightened Xu Shilin came to mind. Xu Shilin was a naughty boy at the beginning. After being enlightened by Avalokitesvara, Xu Shilin's knowledge and cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, and he became the number one scholar at that time.
"If I can enlighten Xu Xian, it will not be too difficult to unlock the wisdom of his past life, become extremely smart, and defeat others to become the most talented person in the world."
"How to open the orifice? Could it be possible that the kitchen knife could be used to cut open a watermelon gourd on the head?"
Zhang Yutang was meditating in the hall, and Doctor Xu had already left.
…
In the Yuelao Temple in Qiantang, a poor Taoist priest with flying hair sat cross-legged, holding a string of rosary beads in his hand, muttering something:
"My baby is gone? My baby is gone? My baby is gone?"
Ever since five years ago, the poor Taoist priest saw the peerless sword energy soaring into the sky and the mighty god descending, he felt that there must be a treasure in Qiantang. With the greed in his heart, he transformed into an old beggar and walked around the streets in Qiantang, looking for the treasure.
The so-called treasure.
In five years, he traveled to almost every corner of Qiantang. It was not until one day that the statue of Yuelao in Yuelao Temple collapsed, causing the poor Taoist priest to restrain himself:
"The statue of the god does not exist. This is the death of the god. Is someone killing the god?"
There was a panic in my heart:
"Although Yue Lao is not a supreme god, he is still a famous god in the world. He is in charge of all marriages. How can he just say it is gone?"
As time went by, the poor Taoist priest disappeared and stayed in Qiantang for five years. On this day, he relaxed all over and naturally sat in the Yuelao Temple and fell into meditation.
As if sensing something, he suddenly opened his eyes.
Two rays of red light fall into the Yuelao Temple, creating a vast haze. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to become a registered member of Piaotian Literature to recommend this work. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
