Chapter 662 Whether it’s your ex-father or your step-father, I don’t blame you (third update)
"Reporting to the official family, after Xiao Gao Zhuangyuan left the palace gate, he went to the Imperial City Department to handle many confidential information related to the Liao Kingdom.
After being busy for about an hour, I went straight home..."
In the palace, in the imperial study room, Zhao Ji, an official, was standing in front of his proud painting "Picture of Wintersweet and Mountain Birds".
While sipping wine, I admired the two five-character quatrains with exactly the same font and content, except for the signature and monogram.
In his ears, reports of the whereabouts of Xiao Gao's number one scholar kept coming.
"... Wu Shangshu sent a letter to summon him, and Xiao Gao, the number one scholar, has already gone to Wu Shangshu's residence."
"This kid has been working hard for half a year. He just came back and is still busy with state affairs. It's really hard on him."
"Explore again, ah no... Yang Jian, go to Wu Shangshu's residence and inquire about the situation."
Yang Jian was stunned for a moment, then he respectfully accepted the order and hurried away. It seemed that the officials couldn't wait to know the final result.
But I just feel that you are the only one I like, brother Xiao Gao. If I can’t marry you, I will become a monk."
"I don't think so at all. In fact, my elder brother also advised me before.
As a result, Master caught the opportunity to make such a move, which is not a loss at all. After all, this little sister Fujin has dealt with her many times. Except for a little tea, she has a pretty good personality in all aspects.
"Well, I have some small matters that I need to deal with. Zhu Xiang will be back soon."
Seeing the appearance of the Maode Emperor, who was as delicate and gentle as a Jiangnan woman, Gao Zhang subconsciously stood up and bowed respectfully.
It just so happened that I also wanted to have a good chat with Xiao Gao Zhuangyuan.
"The Nu family is now the daughter of the Wu family and has nothing to do with the Tian family. Please ask Brother Xiao Gao not to call her by the wrong name again."
This made Wu Zhizhong feel like a second-rate dealer, a middleman. The point is, even though he couldn't make any difference, he still had to do it.
At this moment, Gao Zhang finally met Wu Zhizhong, a veteran with a bad joke on his face.
Gao Zhang let out a deep sigh and saluted Wu Zhi.
Fu Jin held his hand with Gao Zhang, raised his head, looked at the beloved man in front of him with bright eyes, whose image had already been engraved in his heart, shook his head and said firmly.
"Which dad? Oh no, no, no, I don't blame anyone, how could I blame you?"
"..."
"Brother Xiao Gao, you won't blame my father, right?"
Gao Zhang moved forward, looked at the shy and happy Fu Jin, thought for a while, took the initiative to reach out his hand, held her slightly trembling hand, and asked softly.
"My nephew has met Mr. Wu."
Listening to the heartfelt words of Empress Maode, Wu Zhizhong could only shake his head, envying Gao Zhang for his good fortune.
He even doesn’t hesitate to offend the official family in front of hundreds of officials. It’s hard for my nephew to repay such kindness..."
Not long after, Gao Zhang saw the charming little lady Fu Jin walking out from behind the screen.
"Fu Jin, please entertain Xiao Gao Zhuangyuan for my father, and don't lose etiquette."
Come to think of it, the officials probably knew their beloved daughter's feelings very well, so they concocted such a drama.
Finally, he curled his lips helplessly and stood up.
After a few useless words with Gao Zhang, Wu Zhizhong cleared his throat and acted like a loving father.
She is indeed a smart little Di Ji, she is declaring her presence.
Then, Gao Zhang wanted to say something, but Wu Zhizhong, a veteran, was sitting here with a stern expression on his face.
After giving a respectful salute, Gao Zhang sat upright and then squinted his eyes as if aware.
No matter it's your ex-father or step-father, they are neither people I can afford to offend, okay?
When Wu Shangshu took a square step and left the house, Fu Jin glanced at Gao Zhang in front of him shyly, and quickly lowered his head.
As soon as he said this, Fu Jin, who had just deliberately exposed the skirt of his skirt outside the screen, couldn't help but stiffen.
Wu Zhizhong glanced at Fu Jin, who was squirming, and then glanced at Gao Zhang, who was staring directly at him with his eyes.
Besides, your father did that for the sake of my future. But I was also in pain at the time, actually making such a joke with Wu Zhizhong.
Seeing the changes in Gao Zhang's eyes and expression, Wu Zhizhong naturally understood that Gao Zhang had seen something. He smiled and looked at the child kindly.
Gao Zhang was not willing to have an in-depth communication with the young lady in front of a third person, so he saluted Wu Zhi, not knowing what to say.
"I didn't expect Mr. Wu to be so kind to my nephew, in order to be able to fulfill his long-cherished wish to marry my daughter to my nephew.
#####
After Wu Zhizhong walked out of the door, he quietly moved to the side and stood there with his ears open, wanting to hear the exchanges in the room.
But it happened that he was always grateful to himself both inside and outside of his words, and it was really hard for him to say anything.
It not only fulfills the wish of the beloved daughter, but also prevents the beloved disciple's career from suffering a serious setback.
"Yes, yes, it was a slip of the tongue by Mr. Gao, please be patient, madam."
The smile on Wu Zhizhong's face froze, and he always felt that this guy was just kidding.
The luxurious aqua blue dress and the pretty face with flushed cheeks were inlaid with a pair of bright, talking eyes that looked at him shyly.
Fu Jin, who also felt very embarrassed, couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief, felt happy in his heart, and bowed to his stepfather Yanran.
"Father, please go. My daughter will entertain Brother Gao well."
"My dear nephew, do you still remember the agreement you made with me in front of your master?"
The officials had really taken great pains to arrange his marriage, and they had to make him understand.
"But don't you feel aggrieved by this?"
Otherwise, there would not be so many courtiers who would be willing to frequently ask the official to marry this girl for their own son.
The important thing is that his stepdaughter Wu Fujin is staying behind the screen.
After Yang Jian left, the official Zhao Ji also sighed deeply. He had done so much and hoped that Xiao Gao could understand the painstaking efforts of his teacher.
"Fujin, come here quickly and meet Xiao Gao, the number one scholar."
Then I saw the side of the screen behind Wu Zhizhong, an old gangster, revealing a skirt that was slightly swaying at that time. Haha...
"I have met Her Majesty the Emperor Ji..."
I am the middleman who is tired, but then I think about it, at least in the eyes of outsiders, I can be regarded as the real father-in-law of Xiao Gao No. 1 Scholar.
The only son Wu Yanfu became Xiao Gao's brother-in-law. It was a good thing to have such a resourceful and emperor-favored Wen Quxing as a relative.
Not to mention how much it helped his career, at least a hundred years later, for his own sake, Xiao Gao, who has always been very understanding of human affairs, should probably take care of him a little bit.
Just when Wu Zhizhong was listening to the corner and thinking wildly, he saw the housekeeper leading the official's confidant, Yang Jian, into sight...
