Chapter 179 Failed to propose marriage? There is another reason
Tie Tang took a quick look.
Not only did I not feel angry at all, but I instantly stabilized my mind.
If you have an acquaintance, it will be easier.
Whether it will work or not is still open to question, but at least I can see the real owner and not be driven away directly.
When Shen Jianbai heard the laughter, he naturally knew who it was from. He turned around and asked, "Does Yu Xingming know this person?"
The person holding her stomach and laughing on the eaves in front was none other than Yu Qiulu.
She made a leap, jumped in front of Tie Tang, and said to Shen Jianbai, "If you drive others away, that's okay.
But there’s something wrong with this guy, so it’s hard to get rid of him easily.”
"He is..."
Yu Qiulu rolled her eyes, bad thoughts welling up in her heart, ready to scare Shen Jianbai.
"He is the inspector, and he came to visit... Are you afraid your family has done something bad?"
"Supervisor?"
"Supervisor?"
"So young?"
"I've never seen it before."
Everyone in the Shen family was shocked. Even Shen Jianbai was a little panicked. He was thinking about what happened to his family and whether someone had done some dirty work without telling him.
When an inspector comes to your door, it is definitely not good news for any household.
If you really want to find fault with yourself, I will find something for you even if you have nothing to do.
This is a big trouble!
"Miss Yu, stop making trouble. Tie Tang has never offended you in the past." Tie Tang was speechless. He didn't expect Yu Qiulu to be so playful.
He clasped his fists and bowed, and said solemnly to Shen Jianbai, "Tie is not coming here as an official today. Please rest assured, Master Shen.
I am indeed here to propose marriage because of the brother beside me."
"It turns out it's because of this little monkey. Why did you come to Shen's house?" Yu Qiulu has met Biqi several times and knows him.
At this time, everyone's eyes focused on Biqi. Everyone felt relieved for a moment, but at the same time, hundreds of doubts came to their minds.
"Dad, let's talk to the hall first." The eldest son of the Shen family said something to wake him up.
Shen Jianbai slapped his head and came to his senses. His attitude also changed a lot. He carefully apologized and said with a smile, "I was negligent. Sir, please come inside. Let's sit down and talk slowly."
Tie Tang did not reveal his identity at first, firstly because he did not want to use his power to overwhelm others, so as not to arouse the other party's resentment.
The second reason is that he now has real power but no status. He can only be regarded as a half-supervisor and has not been officially canonized.
At least in the name of the imperial court, he is not a true supervisor.
Everyone entered the Shen family's living room, and the other witches and wizards dispersed, leaving only the Shen family's father and son and Yu Qiulu.
Yu Qiulu was still sitting on the chair carelessly, without any feminine temperament, and looked like she was watching a good show.
Tie Tang was sitting upright, sitting with Biqi.
"My little girl is indeed young, and what I said before is not false. However, the Lord actually came to the door in person, so Shen is not beyond consideration.
Shen still doesn’t know how the little girl can get to know adults. The story behind this... I hope I can tell you in detail."
Shen Jianbai was the first to speak. Although he was a little afraid of Tie Tang's status as supervisor, he would not sell his daughter for glory.
Moreover, he asked himself that he had done nothing wrong, acted upright, and sat upright, without condescending or fearing slander.
"You tell me." Tie Tang looked at Biqi.
Bi Qi was not timid either. Facing this future Taishan, he slowly told the story of his acquaintance with the Shen girl from beginning to end.
After Yu Qiulu heard this, she was so happy that she said, "I picked up twenty taels and only gave two taels? It's really yours, so that's okay."
This was not a glorious thing, so Bi Qi lowered his head, slightly embarrassed.
The story of how the two got acquainted was so simple that even the Shen family and his son couldn't believe it.
Shen Jianbai loves his daughter very much on weekdays, and since she is unable to practice, he loves her even more.
He hardly interferes in any affairs, allowing her to travel around and be at ease.
But this wandering... unexpectedly reached the line of supervisor, which was completely beyond Shen Jianbai's expectation.
He looked at Biqi, his expression slightly complicated.
If Tie Tang proposes marriage, as long as his daughter also likes him and has no objections, Shen Jianbai will not refuse.
But when the target is changed to Biqi...it's not so easy to accept.
This kid is only at the Bone Forging Realm. He is so weak and pitiful that he can be blown to death by just blowing on him.
If she marries such a person, won’t her daughter be bullied in all kinds of ways in the future?
After thinking about it, Shen Jianbai decided to refuse, even if it might offend an inspector.
But when it comes to his daughter's lifelong happiness, he has no choice but to make a choice.
"Master Tie... I think this matter... we can discuss it again. Maybe it won't be too late to come back in a few years."
The meaning of rejection was already obvious, but it was not completely revealed, and Tie Tang also understood it.
He raised his eyebrows.
The first time you proposed marriage to someone, was it going to fail?
"Ahem, Head Shen, I think we can think more about this matter and let Siying come out and ask her what she thinks.
After all, it’s not you who got married, why did you refuse so quickly?”
Yu Qiulu began to exert her strength. At this time, she offered to help and win the favor of a genius like Tie Tang. It was a business without capital. If you don't make money, you won't make it in vain.
The Shen family father and son are also very thoughtful people. From Yu Qiulu's words, she could instantly tell how much she valued the two people in front of her.
Biqi...obviously cannot be the main cause.
So.
It’s Tie Tang.
But an inspector... Although he has great authority, the Shen family is not a vegetarian. Is there anything else in it?
To make people like Yu Qiulu look at him differently, Tie Tang may have other identities.
"Haha, what Yu Xingming taught you is that Shen took the liberty and drank tea first."
After speaking, Shen Jianbai waved to the eldest son of the Shen family, "Hetai, go and ask Siying to come out."
In the meantime.
Shen Jianbai calmly chatted with Tie Tang for a few words, trying to extract some other information.
But Tie Tang also has a straightforward temperament and doesn't like to beat around the bush, and he has no reason to brag about himself.
The two chatted for a long time, but it was all nonsense.
Yu Qiulu next to her couldn't stand listening anymore. She was originally a fun-loving person, but she couldn't delay her business just because she was having fun.
"Okay, okay, you two, stop talking. What nonsense are you talking about? My ears are almost calloused.
Tie Tang, I came to the Shen family this time just for the county-city competition. Since you are here, you might as well tell him yourself."
County-city competition?
Where is this?
Tie Tang was confused. He didn't know how the Shen family got involved in the county-city competition.
"Miss Yu means..."
"Oh?"
"You don't know?"
Yu Qiulu looked at Tie Tang curiously, stood up and walked around the living room, picked up a flower arrangement, put it to the tip of her nose and smelled it.
"You dare to go to my master? Didn't the county guard ask you to come to the Shen family? Since it is for the competition, there is no reason why Wu Congyun should not contribute to Qingshui County."
Shen Jianbai frowned, he didn't seem to like this matter, and his face was extremely ugly.
"To be honest, the county magistrate only asked me to look for Supervisor Su, and didn't ask me to come to the Shen family." Tie Tang told the truth, he didn't even know who Wu Congyun was.
Shen Jianbai stood up with a serious face and waved his hand to refuse.
"There is no need to say anything more about Yu Xingming. I have been suffering from illness for a long time and cannot contribute to the county and city again. And it is not that I, Shen, look down on my hometown.
You and I both know that with the power of the Sheriff alone, there is nothing we can do in the competition. Whether we can maintain this ranking is a matter of two minds."
"You have no ambition, you are a cheapskate." Yu Qiulu rolled her eyes and complained crazily.
Shen Jianbai was not angry either. He knew that the other person had this temperament and liked to talk a lot, but his actual actions were completely different and he treated people very well.
Since I have clearly expressed my intention to refuse, the other party will never pester me again, let alone use force to pressure others.
But this time...
He seemed to have guessed Yu Qiulu's thoughts wrongly.
"My lord has said that according to his fortune-telling, Wu Congyun can be reborn this time, but the prerequisite is to participate in the county-city competition."
Shen Jianbai shook his head and refused again, "The way of divination is only a small way. Even if the ancient supernatural powers see the future against the will, they may not be able to truly see the future direction.
It’s not that I can’t trust Mr. Su, it’s that this kind of thing... Shen doesn’t dare to risk his wife’s life.”
Yu Qiulu smiled and put the flower arrangement back into the vase.
"You just said that Qingshui County can't even maintain its ranking this time. I can't tell you.
Not only will Qingshui County not fall this time, but its ranking will be greatly improved. Do you believe it?"
"False words!" Shen Jianbai didn't believe it at all.
"Here, the person next to you is the trump card of Qingshui County this time. He is at the top of his game, the supreme genius, and the Dzogchen Master of the seventy-two orifices.
Now, what do you think?"
The ultimate state?
Shen Jianbai has not heard this word for an unknown amount of time. It is almost legendary.
The young inspector in front of me...has he reached the pinnacle?
Tie Tang had already sensed some meaning from the conversation between the two.
It seems that the wife of the head of the Shen family...is an incredible master, and Yu Qiulu is here to invite her to come out.
But the other party seems to be seriously ill and doesn't want to take action easily.
"Miss Yu, since Mrs. Shen is suffering from a serious illness, why should we force her to take action? If it doesn't work, I will go back to find that great monk Tianwen.
With the combined power of the two of us, we can also sweep across the Secret Realm of Wujin."
Yu Qiulu curled her lips and asked, "Whose side are you on? Tianwen is a true disciple of Daleiyin Temple.
If he can represent Qingshui County, I will chop off his head and use it as a stool for you to sit on."
A true disciple of Daleiyin Temple?
Shen Jianbai was dazzled by the series of words and became a little distracted.
It's not that he hasn't seen the world, it's just because he knows enough about it that he knows what the peak of the world and the Great Thunder Sound Temple represents.
But Biqi, who was truly ignorant, looked confused as he listened to the conversation between the three of them, like a book from heaven.
What's going on?
My friend came to propose marriage today, but why is the topic almost going to the sky?
Can it still happen?
At this moment.
There was a scent of medicine coming from outside the living room.
Tie Tang, who was sitting upright, immediately stood up and felt that there seemed to be a savage beast approaching quickly in front of him.
A slightly decayed female voice came from far outside the door.
"The ultimate state?"
"Take my knife and let me see...whether it's true or not!"
Whoa!
The black sword light, mixed with the scent of medicine, swung down from the sky outside the living room. The sound was not loud, the sword energy was not obvious, but it was extremely condensed.
Like a real black knife, it cuts through the air and wants to take the head from the iron collar.
Before anyone arrives, the knife will arrive first.
