In a corner of the Imperial College campus, Liu Da is waiting anxiously, waiting to see Chen Xue, whom he has longed for, and to express his feelings about parting.
"Should I tell my father and mother about this?"
"Father will definitely beat me to death."
The person Liu Da fears the most is Liu Jin. Liu Jin has been extremely strict with his children since they were young. Liu Xin, Liu Da and the others have always had a hard time with them.
In this era where everything about marriage is subject to the orders of parents and the advice of matchmakers, Liu Jin might beat himself half to death if his father found out about his affairs.
"Alas~"
Liu Da was struggling and hesitating in his heart. He wanted to stay with Chen Xue forever, and the lovers would eventually become lovers. However, the reality was quite cruel.
"My father will definitely not agree to it. Chen Xue's family is just an ordinary family. My father will definitely not agree to my marrying her. Taking a concubine is just about the same."
Liu Da walked hesitantly on the snow.
"Are you Liu Da?"
At this moment, Chen Hui and Chen Long came over with several servants and looked at Liu Da's question and answer carefully.
"I am Liu Da."
Liu Da looked at the people in front of him. They looked menacing and had bad intentions, but Liu Da didn't take it to heart.
Liu Jin was very concerned about the education of his children. In addition to intellectual education, he also paid special attention to physical exercise. He spent a lot of money to hire several famous martial arts masters to teach his children self-defense at home.
So even though Liu Da looks like a gentle scholar, he is actually very capable in martial arts, archery, swords, rifles, horse riding, etc. Usually three or five people are no match for him.
This kind of educational philosophy certainly comes from later generations. The body is the capital of revolution. Only by having a good body can you have everything. It is also necessary to learn some self-defense techniques.
"Is it your boy who asked my sister Chen Xue out?"
Chen Hui looked at Liu Da carefully and found out that this boy's appearance was not to mention, he was handsome and tall, and he was not afraid at all when he saw that several of his people were coming with bad intentions, but he was quite courageous.
"So you are Chen Xue's brother~"
"Liu Da has met Brother Shi!"
When Liu Da heard this, he quickly saluted respectfully.
"You are quite polite, kid."
"Originally I planned to fix you up, but seeing that you are still reasonable, let's forget it."
"But there are some things I still want to say. Stay away from my sister from now on and don't pester her again. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."
Seeing that Liu Da was polite and courteous, Chen Hui did not embarrass Liu Da too much, but only warned Liu Da to stay away from his sister in the future.
"I like Chen Xue, and I ask Brother Shi to make it happen!"
Liu Da was still hesitating whether to tell his parents about this matter, but now his brother actually came to him and warned him, so Liu Da simply spoke out.
"Do you know anything about your kid?"
"Is my sister worthy of you?"
When Chen Long heard this, he immediately became even more angry and said fiercely.
"I only know that I like Chen Xue. I will be good to her all my life and love her with all my heart."
Liu Da said extremely seriously.
"You kid won't shed tears until you see the coffin, right?"
"What you like, what you love."
"Can this be eaten?"
"Do you know how much money it costs to buy a decent house in the capital?"
"You can't afford it in your whole life. Can you afford Chen Xue a decent life?"
Chen Long looked at Liu Da and said angrily.
"I believe that I have the ability to give Chen Xue a good life, and I ask my two brothers to make it happen."
Liu Da said very confidently.
"You kid is really not afraid of death."
"I need to marry my sister, right? If you are willing, come with me and go to my house to meet my father. I want to see if you have the courage."
Chen Hui immediately laughed and said.
This is also Chen Pingan's arrangement. First, give him a warning to see if the other person is courageous. If the other person is not bad and courageous, then take him to meet Chen Pingan and give him some advice along the way.
A few blows, show off, and make the other party retreat.
"I've wanted to visit my uncle and aunt for a long time!"
Liu Da naturally said without fear.
"Very good~"
Chen Hui nodded, this kid is still very courageous.
Then he took Liu Da to the side of the road, pointed to the Mercedes-Benz parked on the side of the road and said, "Do you know what this is?"
"Of course I know, this is a Mercedes-Benz car."
Liu Dadan replied calmly.
"It's good to know. The price of this car is more than 6,000 taels of silver. When can you afford it?"
"Come on, how about taking a ride in this 6,000-tael car."
Chen Hui Zai deliberately hit Liu Da and let him know that he was a poor boy and could not afford to marry Chen Xue.
"My sister must have not told you about the situation of our Chen family in school, right?"
After getting into the car, the car drove towards the Chen family. In the car, Chen Hui also said again.
"No~"
Liu Da shook his head and said.
"Now let me tell you about our family's situation. Although our family is not a powerful family, it can be considered a wealthy family, and we still need face."
"You should also know the situation of your family. You should also understand the huge gap between our two families. If you understand your own identity and status, you should also know what you can and cannot do."
Along the way, Chen Hui and Chen Long were constantly putting pressure on Liu Da, telling him to be smarter and not to pester his sister Chen Xue in the future, and not to tell this matter, otherwise Liu Da would be punished.
pause.
Imperial College is not far from Chen's house. They are both located in the core and bustling area of New Town in the South District. It only takes less than ten minutes to reach Chen's house.
After getting out of the car, Liu Da looked at the villa in front of him, and he didn't expect that Chen Xue's home was not an ordinary ordinary people's home.
"Let's go in and have a look."
Chen Long looked at Liu Da. This Liu Da had always been calm and calm all the way. He was courageous and polite, which was pretty good.
Entering the Chen Mansion, the interior decoration of the entire Chen Mansion is also extremely luxurious. The latest crystal chandeliers are installed, and there are also many maids and servants.
Arriving at the living room, Chen Ping'an and Mr. Qian were sitting on the main seats, looking serious and extremely unhappy.
This brat is actually smelly, tough, and a very courageous master.
When Liu Da walked in, Chen Ping'an and Qian's eyes also lit up slightly.
Liu Da's appearance perfectly inherited Liu Jin's appearance. He is handsome and handsome, with excellent appearance. In addition, he is tall and straight. In terms of appearance, he is impeccable.
"Liu Da has met his uncle and aunt!"
When Liu Da entered the living room, several of them politely saluted Chen Ping'an and Qian.
"Hmm~"
"You are a guest, please take a seat."
Liu Da was also very polite when he saw him, and because he looked good, Chen Ping'an's expression softened a lot.
"Thank you uncle!"
Liu Da replied politely again, and then slowly sat down. When he was sitting, he sat upright, standing like a pine tree, and sitting like a bell, making him look very rested.
"Liu Da, where are you from, and what is your family situation like?"
Chen Ping'an did not attack Liu Da at first, but asked about Liu Da's situation.
"My family's ancestral home is from Changli County, Beizhili. My father later worked as an official in the capital and settled down after the imperial examination and high school. I was also born and raised in the capital."
After thinking about it, Liu Da also replied.
Hearing Liu Da's words, the Chen family was also greatly surprised. They did not expect that Liu Da was the son of an official, and his father was an official in the court.
In this way, he is a good match for his own family, and the other party is also good-looking, so he can accept things about Liu Da and Chen Xue a lot in his heart.
"Oh, your father is still an official in the court. What is his name? What is his official position and rank now?"
Chen Ping'an's eyes lit up slightly.
It seems that the other party's family background is quite good, at least it can be regarded as a scholarly family.
"My father's name is Liu Jin. He is now the chief minister of the cabinet and holds a first-rank official position."
Liu Da thought for a while and finally told his father.
"What?"
"Are you Liu Jin's son?"
When the Chen family heard this, they immediately stood up.
Of course they knew who Liu Jin was.
The current chief minister of the cabinet, the Duke of Liao, a celebrity around the emperor and the prince, is also known as the God of Wealth. The Chen family's wealth is not even a drop in the bucket in front of the Liu family.
The Liu Da in front of me is actually Liu Jin's son, which is really hard to believe.
Qian on the side couldn't help but take a closer look at Liu Da in front of her, and then said: "It looks like, it really looks like, it can be said that it is exactly the same."
"It really looks like Mr. Liu. I didn't even notice it at first. He is exactly the same as Mr. Liu when he was young."
When Liu Jin won the first prize, he rode on horseback and paraded through the streets. Many people saw Liu Jin, and he won the hearts of many ladies at that time. Qian also met Liu Jin at that time and had a very fond memory of Liu Jin, the first prize scholar.
Deep down, now that I took a closer look, I realized that the Liu Da in front of me was very similar to Liu Jin back then.
"Have you met Liu Gong?"
Chen Ping'an immediately glanced at Qian and said.
"When Mr. Liu was the top scholar in high school, he rode a horse and paraded through the streets. Everyone in the capital saw it."
Qian nodded and said, "Liu Da, this kid looks almost exactly the same as Liu Gong."
"You are actually Liu Gong's son~"
"Is he really the son of Liu Gong, the chief minister of the cabinet?"
Brothers Chen Hui and Chen Long were both dumbfounded. They wanted to teach Liu Da a lesson just now, but fortunately they didn't hit him, otherwise, this would have been a big trouble.
Thinking about how much he was showing off and showing off just now, this old man couldn't help but blush.
"Since you are Liu Gong's son, and you and Xue'er are consensual, we will not object to your affairs. Go back and talk to Liu Gong about this matter, and when will the matter be finalized."
"Aren't you going to South Africa?"
"Please take care of this matter before you go."
Chen Ping'an looked at Liu Da, and after thinking for a while, he also said.
The family of Liu Gong, the chief minister of the cabinet, is really no ordinary family. It is the top wealthy family in the Ming Dynasty. It is a hereditary public and iron rice bowl of the Liao Kingdom. In addition, Liu Jin is also the chief minister of the cabinet, and has an extremely huge industry under his command.
Of course, the Liu Da in front of me is also a very nice person. He is good-looking and extremely polite. He looks like a kid from an aristocratic family. He doesn't look like a carefree or playboy at all. He is also a top student who graduated from Imperial College. This is fitting.
