Everyone in the room finally couldn't help laughing. Not only Qian Tongzhi and Dark Green, but also the usually calm Wen Chengyan and the quiet Kou Qiaoyi couldn't help laughing. Qian Tongzhi laughed especially exaggeratedly, holding his stomach until he squatted down with laughter.
On the ground, it took a long time to catch my breath, and breathlessly said to Xu Zizhen: "What do you mean...calling you Yin? Haha! Brother, this is for your own good!"
Xu Zizhen was speechless: "Teasing me is also called doing it for my own good?"
Qian Tongzhi finally suppressed his laughter, stood up while holding on to the wall and said, "You kid, don't be heartless. I said you disappeared for so long and didn't ask anyone to bring you back. You know how much my cousin misses you."
What? It's a good thing for you, you didn't even think about having a good chat with my cousin when you came back, so you just ran to take your magic machine camp. Oh, with a pretty girl like my cousin, she's not as good as those rough men.
You have eyes, right?"
Dark Green was also cheering on the side, humming: "That's right, Miss nags you every day, I almost feel calluses in my ears, but you don't care about our Miss at all, you don't even know that she is sick."
, He is truly the most heartless and heartless man in the world, I don’t know why the young lady likes you."
Wen Xian blushed on the bed, but she couldn't stop Qian Tongzhi and Mo Lu from talking loudly. In shame, she simply covered her head with the quilt, pretending that she couldn't hear.
Xu Zizhen was also bombarded by the barrage of words from the two of them. Seeing Kou Qiaoyi opening his mouth to join in the fun, he turned his head and glared at her. Kou Qiaoyi was startled and closed his mouth obediently.
, then he smiled bitterly and said: "Can't I admit that I was wrong? I also admit that I was too impatient and started training as soon as I came back. But wasn't it for Lanzhou and Lord Wen?"
Dark Green glared at her and hummed: "But you said it yourself, time is squeezed out. Is it possible that you are too busy to talk to the lady?"
Xu Zizhen was about to bow to her and said anxiously: "I have already admitted my mistake. My sister-in-law, what else do you want? How about I go and prepare the bride price right away to marry your young lady?"
Dark Green and Qian Tongzhi shouted in unison: "Okay!"
"You guys..." Xu Zizhen was about to speak when he saw Wen Chengyan suddenly sitting on a chair beside him, looking at him with a smile and saying nothing.
Before he could react, he saw Kou Qiaoyi walking aside quickly, pouring a cup of tea on the table and handing it back to him. He pursed his lips and smiled softly: "Master, Mr. Wen is waiting for your tea.
"
Xu Zizhen trembled as if waking up from a dream, and looked at Wen Chengyan with wide eyes in disbelief. Kou Qiaoyi's voice was not quiet, and it was enough to reach the ears of everyone in the room, but Wen Chengyan did not deny it.
Still looking at Xu Zizhen with a smile.
Qian Tongzhi couldn't hold it in anymore, grabbed the teacup and stuffed it into his hand, and pushed him: "Go quickly!"
Xu Zizhen stumbled forward a few steps involuntarily, came to Wen Chengyan in a daze, and said with a smile: "Sir, you..."
Before he finished speaking, Wen Chengyan took the initiative to take the tea cup from his hand, drank it all in one gulp, then put down the tea cup and said with a smile: "Xian son-in-law Zizhen, now you and I are a family, I hope you will
Treat Xian'er well and don't let her suffer any injustice."
Qian Tongzhi clapped his hands and laughed at the side: "Okay, okay, Xiao Xu, why don't you meet your father-in-law? Oh, yes, don't forget to prepare the bride price quickly and marry my cousin as soon as possible!"
Xu Zizhen felt thunder rolling from the sky, and a golden light shone in front of his eyes. In his life, he had seen people forcing gambling, debts, and never forced marriages. Moreover, it was his father-in-law and his brother-in-law who came together. He couldn't believe it. Wen Chengyan
Such a calm head of a house would do such ridiculous things.
Wen Xian remained huddled in the bed, obviously she was too embarrassed to face Xu Zizhen. Qian Tongzhi and Mo Lu were still singing and clamoring for Xu Zizhen to prepare the bride price, as excited as if they were going to get married.
Xu Zizhen stood there blankly, Wen Chengyan stood up and came to his rescue with a smile: "It's getting late today, it's not too late to talk about the bride price tomorrow, let's all go back, and let Xian'er take good care of herself.
"After that, he walked to the bedside and whispered a few words to Wen Xian, then turned and left the room.
…
Qian Tongzhi followed Wen Chengyan back to his study. As soon as he closed the door, the smile on his face disappeared without a trace. He stood next to Wen Chengyan with his head lowered, as if he was hesitant to speak.
Wen Chengyan glanced at him: "Just say what you want to say."
Qian Tongzhi scratched his head and murmured: "Uncle, I haven't asked you before. Although I really want Xiao Xu to be my brother-in-law, isn't it a bit bad for us to set up a situation like this to urge him to marry his cousin? And?
I always feel that I am sorry for my cousin by doing this."
Wen Chengyan shook his head and sighed softly: "I don't know, but... alas! Zhi'er, do you think Lanzhou City can be saved this time?"
Qian Tongzhi said resolutely: "Definitely!"
Wen Chengyan suddenly smiled bitterly: "Then let me tell you, whether Lanzhou is protected or not, my Wen family will be in great trouble."
Qian Tongzhi was shocked: "Disaster? Uncle, what... does this mean?"
Wen Chengyan said slowly: "Old thief Wang Fu already has a grudge against me regarding the Suzhou incident. If Master Qi hadn't protected me, I'm afraid he would have imprisoned me long ago. If Lanzhou wasn't protected this time, it would be the old thief's fault."
If you make excuses, you will definitely take the opportunity to retaliate."
Qian Tongzhi said: "I know this, but what if Lanzhou is not lost? What excuse does the old thief Wang Fu have to trouble you?"
Wen Chengyan smiled: "If this is the case, the old thief Wang Fu will take the opportunity to transfer me to the capital and entrust me with another important task." After saying this, he remained silent and only looked at Qian Tongzhi.
Qian Tongzhi was stunned for a moment, but then he slapped his hands fiercely and shouted: "I understand, as soon as you enter Beijing, there is a chance that you will be manipulated by him."
A hint of helplessness flashed in Wen Chengyan's eyes: "That's exactly it."
Qian Tongzhi asked: "But what does this have to do with Xiao Xu? Oh, I understand. Do you want him to leave with his cousin?"
Wen Chengyan shook his head and suddenly changed the subject: "Zhi'er, what do you think of Zizhen?"
Qian Tongzhi said without hesitation: "He is loyal and courageous, he is a man!"
Wen Chengyan stood up, patted his shoulder, and said softly: "Zhi'er, you have been smart since you were a child, but you have no intention of studying poetry and books. My uncle doesn't blame you. The officialdom of the Song Dynasty is not suitable for your temperament, but Zi Zhen
But otherwise, this son's future is limitless, and with him here, my Wen family will be safe and sound."
Qian Tongzhi's face was full of disbelief, and he said with a smile: "Uncle, he... can he be so capable?"
Wen Chengyan looked out the window with deep eyes and said slowly: "There are some things that even Zizhen doesn't know yet, so don't ask any more questions."
