Chapter 58 The villain also has childhood sweethearts?
The silence in the room lasted for several breaths, and finally the rugged man laughed twice and spoke to the rescue:
"Hahaha, Qin'er and I haven't returned to Beijing for three years. It's normal that nephew Changtian didn't recognize him for a while."
"Haha! That's right, after all, women have changed in their eighteenth year!"
Wei Xianzhi laughed and winked wildly at Wei Changtian.
Wei Changtian was also unambiguous. He immediately understood and showed an extremely surprised expression, and blurted out to the woman: "Are you Qin'er?!"
The woman turned her head slightly and glanced at Wei Changtian with her big peach blossom eyes: "Brother Changtian, did you just remember?"
"No, Qin'er! You really can't blame me for not recognizing you this time!"
Wei Changtian cried out his injustice without hesitation: "Why do you look so good now? You look like a different person compared to when you left a few years ago!"
"That means I didn't look good before?"
The woman still had squinting eyes, but she looked like she was no longer angry.
Sure enough, there is nothing wrong with complimenting a woman on her beauty!
Wei Changtian quickly waved his hand: "Of course it looked good before, but it's just better now."
"snort!"
Qin'er snorted and looked at Wei Changtian with emotion: "Brother Changtian, you are different from before."
"Really? What's the difference?"
"You have never been so glib before."
"Hahaha, I'm not glib, I'm telling the truth."
Wei Changtian laughed guiltily, but Qin'er didn't say anything, just stared at him with her big eyes.
The two of them stared at each other for a long time, and just when Wei Changtian was so stared at that he almost felt like he had been exposed somewhere, Qin'er finally lowered his eyes and spat softly:
"Bah! I don't believe it..."
…
After a long absence, we naturally had a lot to talk about.
After that, Wei Xianzhi and the others kept reminiscing about the past. Wei Changtian could only sit and listen. At most, he would respond with a few nonsense words like "Yeah!", "I miss you so much!", "Of course I remember" from time to time.
But after listening for a long time, he roughly figured out the identities of these two people.
The man’s name is Liang Zhen and the woman’s name is Liang Qin.
The Liang family was a military general, and they were family friends with the Wei family. They had been in contact with each other for several generations.
Because the two families were familiar with each other, and the former owner and Liang Qin were of similar age, the two gradually got together.
It's not a fool's errand, but a social hustler.
Except for not being able to go to the brothel together, the two of them basically did all the bad things together. At that time, they could be described as "male and female evil spirits" in the capital.
It's a pity that Liang Zhen was appointed as the commander-in-chief of Shuzhou three years ago and brought Liang Qin with him, and the male and female evil spirits were disbanded from then on.
The border guard returns to Beijing every three years to report on his duties, and this time the two came back for this reason.
"Brother Liang, when do you plan to see the emperor?"
Wei Xianzhi refilled Liang Zhen's cup of tea and said with a smile: "If it doesn't work, just talk to the emperor and transfer him back to the capital. There is no war to fight these days. The most you can do in Shuzhou is suppress bandits and kill monsters.
What's the point."
"Oh, I do want to come back."
Liang Zhen sighed and said: "But there are no real job vacancies in the capital now. It's better to stay in Shuzhou and be a mountain king. It's quite good."
"Haha, if you want to be the king of your mountain, just do it. I won't advise you."
Wei Xianzhi laughed twice, glanced at Liang Qin, and then said: "But I can't let you delay Qin'er's important event."
"Although the place in Shuzhou is rich, most of them are landowners and wealthy businessmen, and there are few famous families. If that doesn't work, you can leave Qin'er in the capital this time, and I will find a well-matched husband for you!"
"Oh, it would be great if she was willing to stay. This girl really likes Shuzhou now."
Liang Zhen continued to sigh, but his eyes were vaguely looking at Wei Changtian: "As for the marriage... don't worry, we won't return to Shuzhou for another month. I'm sure the matter will be settled by then."
"Hahaha, that's right!"
Wei Xianzhi put his hands on his hands and smiled, his meaning unspoken.
The four of them chatted for a while and made an appointment for the two families to have dinner together in the evening. Then Liang Zhen and his daughter said goodbye and left.
Only then did Wei Changtian breathe a sigh of relief and finally talk to Wei Xianzhi about business.
"Dad, Xiao Feng is hooking up with the Liu family."
"What? Please tell me in detail..."
"..."
In order to attract enough attention from Wei Xianzhi, Wei Changtian basically revealed all the information this time.
But Yang Liushi didn’t say anything about being a fox demon.
As for how he conquered Yangliu Shi for his own use... it was naturally because of his handsome appearance and amazing poetic talent.
After a conversation, Wei Xianzhi indeed took this matter very seriously, and immediately agreed to send people from the Xuanjing Division, and even personally helped Wei Changtian complete his plan to counter-kill Xiao Feng.
As for the Liu family, since they still don't know the opponent's specific actions, all they can do for the time being is to be vigilant and prepare for a counterattack.
…
The dinner between the Wei and Liang families was held at the Wei Mansion.
Since Wei Changtian specifically asked Wang Er'e to supplement his "relevant knowledge" in the afternoon, he was finally able to talk a few words during the dinner, and was not as confused as he was during the day.
The atmosphere was pleasant, the food was delicious, Liang Zhen's wife was big...this was all he felt about the meal.
In addition to this, there is the matchmaking intention between the two elders, both in words and in words.
To be honest, Wei Changtian was not very interested in this.
Liang Qin is undoubtedly extremely beautiful among ordinary women, but if compared with the woman he is now...not to mention Yang Liushi, not even Lu Jingyao and Xu Qingwan can compare.
What's more, she never appeared in the novel at all.
After dinner, everyone moved to the hall to drink tea and chat, talking about the "good memories" of the two families helping each other.
After listening to it for a while, Wei Changtian felt sleepy and kept pouring tea into his mouth.
Liang Qin, who was sitting next to him, hesitated for a while and suddenly asked softly: "Brother Changtian, will you go out for a walk with me?"
"okay."
After all, they were "childhood sweethearts", so Wei Changtian didn't refuse.
The two of them said hello and walked out of the room, walking side by side in the Wei Mansion.
The night sky was not very dark, and the moonlight and starlight shed white light through the gaps in the leaves, which reminded Wei Changtian of a poem - the moon shines brightly in the gaps in the phoenix trees.
Of course he was not so crazy that he recited the poem to show off, he just walked slowly and leisurely.
Liang Qin, on the other hand, followed him with his head lowered and silent, not knowing what he was thinking in his mind.
The two of them walked like this for a while until they stopped at a small lake.
"Let's sit for a while."
Liang Qin turned around and asked, and when Wei Changtian nodded, she used her long sleeves to wipe off the dew on a piece of bluestone, and then sat on it by herself.
Wei Changtian first followed him and sat down next to him, but then felt uncomfortable, and finally just lay down on the stone surface.
The lake water behind him was rippling slightly. Liang Qin looked at the man lying beside him but at a distance, and suddenly said:
"Brother Changtian, it seems that my parents want to betroth me to you."
"Yes, I can see it." Wei Changtian responded nonchalantly.
"Then...do you want to marry me?"
Under normal circumstances, if a woman asks this question to a man, the subtext should be - marry me quickly!
But now Wei Changtian heard another meaning.
He was stunned for a moment, and then asked directly: "Do you want to get married?"
"..."
Liang Qin didn't speak or hesitate.
She just looked at Wei Changtian in the moonlight, and then shook her head gently.
