The trouble was temporarily resolved, and Xie Fuchun quickly returned to the usual bustle. Ladies and daughters from all walks of life arrived in droves, and in a short time, Xie Fuchun's shop was completely packed.
Mo Li'er has hired two old ladies since she opened the business. They were so scared that they hid when Qin Yu's people came to cause trouble. Now they saw the uncle who suddenly appeared and calmed down easily. They felt a little embarrassed and went back to work.
I was busy and worked much harder than usual.
Xu Zizhen left Daye and the others behind, and followed Mo Lier to the back hall.
Mo Xie was still lying on the bed. When she heard Xu Zizhen's arrival, she immediately became energetic and sat up under Mo Li'er's service. Only then did Xu Zizhen enter the room. When they met, he bowed respectfully and then said: "
Mom, I’m back, no one will dare to bully you and Li’er from now on.”
This mother-in-law scream made Mo Xie shed tears on the spot. When she was in Suzhou, Xie Fuchun was implicated by Xu Zizhen and closed down, but she never blamed Xu Zizhen. She had been in business for many years and had long developed a pair of piercing eyes. Xu Zizhen's future achievements
He is limitless and sincere to others. His daughter will never be wronged if she follows him.
It's just that Xu Zizhen has been gone for half a year, and there is no news. These days, she has been worried and worried, not because of the profit the mascara brought to the store, but because she has really regarded Xu Zizhen as her son-in-law.
"Zhen Gu'er, it'll be good if you come back, it'll be good if you come back!" Mo Xie choked up after only half a sentence. Mo Li'er hurriedly supported her and took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.
Xu Zizhen smiled slightly: "Mom, you have to take good care of yourself quickly. There are still a lot of things waiting for you to do next."
Mo Xie was startled and didn't realize it: "What are you busy with?"
Xu Zizhen looked at Mo Li'er and said with a smile: "Li'er and I have been engaged for half a year, and it's time to choose a date to give the gift. What do you think, mother?"
Mo Xie was overjoyed and felt a sense of relief all over her body. The illness she had accumulated for several days seemed to disappear in an instant. She pointed at him with a smile and said: "You even called me mother, what are you waiting for?" He was full of energy as he spoke.
He stood up and walked around and took out an old almanac. He flipped through it a few times and settled on a certain page. He waved to Xu Zizhen and said, "Zhen Guer, what do you think of this day? On the third day of April, everything is suitable...
…”
Mo Li'er wasn't wary that Xu Zizhen would suddenly talk about getting married, and she didn't expect that her mother would be so cooperative. She had already chosen the date before she even came back to her senses. Her face turned red with embarrassment and she stamped her feet.
Escape from the house.
Xu Zizhen and Mo Xie smiled at each other and did not pull her away. After the laughter ended, Xu Zizhen suddenly looked embarrassed and said in a chuckle: "Mom, there is something I have to discuss with you first. I'm afraid Li'er can't
...cannot be my legal wife."
Mo Xie was stunned for a moment, then gave him a meaningful look: "Then let me tell you first that no matter how humble Li'er is, she will not be a concubine."
Xu Zizhen scratched his head and chuckled: "How can this be possible? I treat Li'er like a pet, and I won't hide it from you. In fact, I have met several girls in the past six months, and one of them was in
By chance, she got engaged to me, and her status is a bit...hehe."
In the Northern Song Dynasty, a man was allowed to have multiple wives, but usually there was one wife and three wives, and the others were concubines. In fact, Mo Xie never thought that Li'er would become Xu Zizhen's wife. After all, the status of merchants was not high these days.
She thought that if Xu Zizhen could succeed, her daughter could be an equal wife.
However, Xianggui thought so. When she heard Xu Zizhen talk about this, she couldn't help but tease: "What's wrong? Could it be that she is still a princess?"
Xu Zizhen laughed dryly and said in a low voice: "You guessed it right, she is really a princess, and she is not from the Song Dynasty, but from Xixia."
Mo Xie was dumbfounded. She had thought that Xu Zizhen might have become a high-ranking official. She even guessed that she would be the daughter of former Suzhou magistrate Wen Chengyan. However, she never expected that Xu Zizhen would actually marry a princess.
Dear, doesn’t this make you the Prince Consort of Xixia?
"I...I'm going to find Li'er." Xu Zizhen felt guilty and slipped out while Mo Xie was in a daze.
No one knew where Mo Li'er was hiding, and Xu Zizhen was not in a hurry to find her. She had to give her some time to digest such a big deal, and besides, Li'er was so thin-skinned, even if he found her now, she might not be willing to see him.
As soon as he returned to Bianjing, the Qin Yu incident came up. After thinking about it, Xu Zizhen decided to go to see Zhao Gou first. He left Kou Qiaoyi behind to help Mo Xie with the wedding arrangements, and he took Daye Bao with him.
Er and Su San went straight to Prince Kang's Mansion.
Zhao Gou received the news when Xu Zizhen came back, and returned to the house early to wait. The guard at the door led Xu Zizhen straight to the back hall. As soon as Zhao Gou saw him, he stood up and greeted him with a smile: "Zi
Zhen, you made a big fuss as soon as you came back."
Xu Zizhen straightened his clothes and was about to bow down. Zhao Gou grabbed him and said seriously: "From now on, you and I won't have to make such a false courtesy."
"Okay, thank you Master Qi." Xu Zizhen was not pretentious. Anyway, he was annoyed when he saw him kneeling down and kowtow.
After the two sat down, Xu Zizhen expressed his guess. Zhao Zhizai thought for a moment and sneered: "My fifth brother still can't trust me, but it doesn't matter. Come as you please, who is afraid of whom?"
Xu Zizhen put his hands on his hands and laughed: "That's right, come as soon as you come. Anyway, this is what the fifth master will do in the future, so don't worry."
Zhao Gou said: "Even if he has something in the future, I may not take him seriously. Let's not talk about this disappointing thing. Let's talk about you. I heard that my second brother went to find you?"
Speaking of this, Xu Zizhen couldn't laugh or cry: "Master Qi, why don't you, your second brother, recommend me to go to some yamen? You have to let me go to school. I'm a rough guy, why can't I make the gentleman from Xiuwen Hall so angry that he vomits blood?"
"
Zhao Gou laughed loudly: "Rough man? If you are a rough man, how many thin ones are there in Bianjing City? The west wind blows, and people are thinner than yellow flowers! I have copied down the two poems you wrote in Suzhou. Could it be that you want to
Shall I take it and ask some of the great Confucian scholars in the court to comment on it?"
Xu Zizhen was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed, but he forgot about this. Since Rong Xi is Zhao Gou's biological sister, the two masterpieces he copied at the time would naturally not escape Zhao Gou's ears.
Zhao Gou laughed for a while and then said: "I think it is a good thing for you to go to Xiuwen Hall. Although there are many scholars in the world today, most of them enter the court to gain fame and become officials, and then they try their best to please, and then
There are a few people who can think about the world. If you go there, you may be able to rectify the evil trend in Xiuwen Hall."
Xu Zizhen said: "Please stop trying to push me. I think I am quite crooked."
Zhao Gou said: "Then let's fight fire with fire." He paused for a moment and suddenly had a rare smirk on his face, "There is a concubine in the Xiuwen Hall."
Xu Zizhen jumped up immediately: "Really? I'll go!"
