Chapter four hundred and twentieth go around and pit yourself
Lu Sanlang, who was so excited that he was about to explode, had his head hanging down when he left. Because Zhang Shou strictly prohibited him from leaking the news, and even blocked his mouth for leaking the news in forbidden Chinese. However, he has always been fat and generous.
When I got out of Zhang Yuan and got on my horse, I immediately became elated again.
"I can't say now. How can I still cover it up when I actually start working on it? Oh, luckily Qi Liang went to Wang Datou's place, and no one competed with me to take the lead... But Qi Liang would definitely prefer to stay down-to-earth with Wang Datou.
If you work hard and stand up to the bosses in the court, he will definitely push me to become the president even if he is here! Hehehehe, my father and my eldest and second brothers never thought that I still have this glory!"
"Who made me the first chief of Jiuzhang Hall? When the second and third periods come in, I will be the senior?"
The more Lu Sanlang thought about it, the more proud he became. The more proud he became, the deeper he thought. In the end, his mumbling almost turned into dancing. Fortunately, the few followers who followed him were all sent by Mrs. Lu to follow him since they were children.
Yes, I was used to the endless thoughts and unexpected behavior of this third young master at that time, so I just pretended not to see him.
Even when they heard Lu Sanlang's soliloquy, he seemed to mention the master and the other two young masters, they still pretended to be deaf and mute and followed silently. In the end, Lu Sanlang, who was finally carried away, noticed his gaffe and coughed hard twice.
There was a sound, and he sat up straight again. One of them just stepped forward and whispered: "Master, didn't I send a letter this morning asking you to go back early tonight?"
Lu Sanlang had just gathered around Zhang Shouchang to think about the future. It was too late. How could he have thought of his original plan? Although his heart skipped a beat at this moment, he still said calmly: "It's okay. Dad's place is just trivial. Not only does he have nine
The people in Zhangtang are busy following him, and there is Xie Wanquan who works as a horse for him, so how can they care about me! Besides, there are eldest and second brothers."
Several of the entourage were all laughing in their hearts. The other two young masters? One had already finished his studies in the Hanlin Academy and was about to be appointed an official, and the other was in the imperial examination and was waiting to become a full-time official. But now that the master has stepped down, the two
My next official position is unclear, just like ants on a hot pot, but I can no longer put on my former airs in front of the third young master.
How can Lu Sanlang, who is still as comfortable as a fish in water without his father's care, be dissatisfied?
A group of people escorted Lu Sanlang back to the gate of Lu Mansion. There was a small commotion immediately at the door. One of the concierges quickly stepped forward to help Lu Sanlang hold the horse. When the fat man, who was already heavy, was helped to the ground, he rushed to grab it.
He said: "Third Young Master, why are you back just now? I have sent people to ask you several times. It has been a long time since Liu Shilang of your future in-law family has been here..."
The little fat man who was originally smiling was suddenly stunned. Future father-in-law? Liu Qing’s father? No, dad asked him to come back early today because of such a thing... Why didn’t he tell him earlier!
The little fat man's calmness turned into nervous sweat. He almost threw away the reins, then picked up the front of his robe and rushed in. As a result, the concierge had only finished half of his words before he could show off the other half.
Instead, he froze there.
Third Young Master, it's useless for you to run. What I want to say is that I've been here for a long time and I'll go back before I can wait for you... If you run in in such a hurry, I might give you a good beating if I get angry! Turn around.
Don't make me angry. Who told you to run away before I finished speaking? Why are you so impatient?
Of course, Lu Sanlang would not hear the concierge's thoughts. He was walking very fast all the way, and he was still counting on his fingers the time when people would come to his home after Sanya. He realized that his future father-in-law would not be still eating at this moment.
Dinner would probably be in his father's study, so he went straight there.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw that the bamboo curtain of Concubine Xiang was suddenly raised high, and then the eldest brother and the second brother came out with sullen faces. When they saw him, the two brothers were stunned, and then they were exposed
A trace of mocking smile. Seeing this scene, even if Lu Sanpang was smart, even if he was a fool, he would know that something was wrong.
In an occasion like a meeting between in-laws, he, the client, is pretty much the same person. Who are his two brothers to be there to accompany him?
Sure enough, probably because he noticed that the door curtain had not been lowered for a long time, Lu Wan's voice came from inside: "Who is outside?"
Lu Erlang immediately shouted first: "Dad, it's the third brother who is back."
After the first moment of silence, Lu Sanlang heard a roar from inside that was clearly suppressed with anger: "Let that evil obstacle get out of here! Once your wings are strong, you can fly, and you will be wild outside every day without caring about your home..."
Before Lu Wan could say anything else, the little fat man scurried through the door - but before entering, he arrogantly gave each of his two brothers a big roll of his eyes, and then used a very small expression.
The voice said sarcastically: "I can still have wings to fly without my dad to help me, but your wings have been interrupted, right? You wouldn't be an official without dad. Where is your usual air!"
Before Lu Dalang and Lu Erlang could get angry, Lu Sanpang had already entered the study. He stood there and scanned the surroundings, and found that his future father-in-law, Liu Shilang, was nowhere to be seen. Although he was a little regretful, he planned to visit him in person to apologize someday.
, but he didn’t take this incident to heart at all.
Lu Wan, who was originally just half-truth and half-wig to get angry, became really angry because of his completely nonchalant attitude. His son spent all day in the Imperial College and took over the narrow dormitory as his own, so forget it.
He had specially sent someone to come back early tonight, but he didn't take it seriously at all and went directly to Zhang Shou to show his courtesy!
That smooth-talking teacher is so much more important than his father and father-in-law?
In her anger, Lu Wan completely forgot that when she sent someone to deliver the message, she didn't even mention that Liu Shilang was coming over tonight.
Although the little fat man is used to being angry with his father, he is indeed a first-class person when it comes to observing words and expressions. When he turned back his gaze, he noticed that Lu Wan seemed to have a sullen look on his face, so he immediately stepped forward and saluted with a smile on his face, because
Explained; "Dad, I originally wanted to come back early, but today the young gentleman went back to the Imperial College to check his homework, so I had to take those things from before..."
"Huh, Zhang Shou not only went to the Imperial College, but also to the public school. You don't have to give me a reason."
Lu Wan interrupted Lu Sanlang's explanation impatiently, and when he thought about the news he had received, he became even more angry. Not only did Zhang Shou go to public school, he also specially invited Xie Wanquan to speak alone. According to him,
The informant there came to report the conversation between Ren Ren and Xie Wanquan. Even though he listened to the report, he almost turned his nose in anger.
Of course, after listening to the informant's show-off report, he was actually very suspicious in his heart. You must know that the kid next to Zhang Shou was able to sneak into the Lu family and deliver a message to Lu Sanlang without warning. How could he not be able to guard against a mere informant with no skills? Since
If this is the case, it means that Zhang Shou is not afraid of anyone listening at all, and even just tells it to him on purpose.
But because of this, he felt aggrieved. Who made Zhang Shou actually instruct Xie Wanquan to find him to resolve life-long matters!
He is not Zhang Shou. With the help of a free young lady like Zhu Ying, how can he have the ability to secure a match and pull a girl? I think that when he found such a marriage for Lu Sanlang, the result was that something went wrong and almost caused trouble.
It was a great blessing, but now I feel unlucky just thinking about it!
Therefore, at this time, he stared at Lu Sanlang indifferently and smiled happily. He was not at all like the eldest son and the second son who were cautious when meeting him. He only felt mixed feelings in his heart, and he was happy that this son finally had a future.
The emperor probably didn't remember the eldest and second eldest son of the Lu family, but he remembered this little fat boy. But what made him angry was that this son was raised for someone else!
He took a deep breath and then said stiffly: "Today your future father-in-law came to me to discuss the wedding date. I originally wanted to ask you what you meant, but since you didn't come back, I made the decision directly.
. Zhang Shoudu, whom you keep calling your teacher, is not married yet, so you, the disciple, just have to be patient and wait until next year. What do you think?"
The little fat man was immediately heartbroken. He had made up his mind at the end of last year! Although he was a little busy afterwards, he didn't pay much attention to the arranged marriage. In addition, Zhang Chen and those guys were not loyal and went to Xingtai to do it.
As for the textile business, he still has to take care of the pan-entertainment industry here in the capital, so he seems not to be enthusiastic about marriage, but he really hopes to get a wife!
Now his father actually told him... that he wanted to postpone it until next year? And he even pulled out Zhang Shou's marriage to silence him?
This is unbearable! Lu Sanlang took a deep breath and was about to try hard to protest. Who knew that Lu Wan would put away the sullen face just now and said seriously: "If you want to marry me as soon as possible,
Having a wife and a family will also make your mother happy, so don't go out in the world and at least come back to see your mother more often, and remember to pay more attention to the public school affairs!"
When you are away, I often come back to see my mother... Dad, your emphasis is entirely on the second half of the sentence, right?
Lu Sanlang was really convinced now, but suddenly he felt that his father, who had always felt cold and unapproachable in the past, was actually just looking arrogant and looking forward to getting close to him. For the sake of his lifelong happiness, he quickly nodded and bowed and said that he would definitely do it.
He selected the most reliable person from Jiuzhangtang to take over the teaching task at Daming Public School, but as soon as he finished his promise, he suddenly slapped his forehead hard again.
I was only focused on pleasing my father and forgot about another important matter that Zhang Shou asked me to do!
Although he regretted it endlessly and was not sure whether his father was really on the same side as Zhang Shou, after thinking about it, he still had to say vaguely: "But Jiuzhangtang has a big task recently, I'm afraid the public school
Since we can't recruit too many people, Dad, you can also choose a few smart students in the public school to train them carefully. The young teacher mentioned to me some kind of guidance system, which may be useful."
Lu Wan didn't pay attention to the last part of Lu Sanlang's words. Lu Sanlang said that Jiuzhangtang had another big mission, which really made him dare not underestimate him. After all, Zhang Shou's ability to do things, coupled with his jumping up and down
My little son, one plus one is definitely greater than two.
Thanks to the teachers and students, he now also knows some arithmetic terms.
Relying on his usual sensitivity and his father's deep understanding of a rebellious son, Lu Wan pretended not to care about the word "big task" and said impatiently: "I just asked you to do something.
It's simply unfilial to push back and forth like this! Since this can't be done, I'll give you a task that can be completed casually. Just listen to me!"
"That Xie Wanquan has now lost his fame and fortune, so he can calm down and do something practical. But after all, he and Yang Yiming have a teacher-student relationship. They were so decisive before, and many people in the scholarly and official circles were very critical of him. If he continues like this
If he goes on, he will not only have no hope in the examination, but even his life-long events will not be postponed until the year of the monkey. So..."
"You help me solve his life-long problem, so that he can continue to do well in public school. As long as you handle this matter well, I will go and tell your father-in-law personally."
When the little fat man came out of the study, he looked at the moon in the sky, which was still only half full, and he doubted his life.
Is he his father's biological son? How come he didn't see his father being so dedicated in his marriage, but now he has to push Xie Wanquan's life-long event to him? In the conscience of heaven and earth, he wanted to prevent being messed up by his father.
When ordering Yuanyangpu, he asked Zhu Ying for help, otherwise...he has only seen a few girls in the seventeen or eight years he has lived!
With his handsome appearance, he has no luck with women at all, right? It would be great if he had half the demeanor and appearance of Zhang Shou. As for his current fiancée who doesn’t care about appearance but pays more attention to character, it’s simply God’s pity for him before.
Half his life was a blessing to him. Where could he find a wife for Xie Wanquan?
Lu Sanlang scratched his head irritably, and just like that, he went all the way to his mother. He used the trick of acting like a spoiled brat again, which made Mrs. Lu smile. Not only did she agree to help him scold his father, but he also gave him extra money.
A stack of money bills. However, Lu Sanlang thanked the first one over and over again, but he pushed back the latter one with all his strength.
"Mom, I am now the most famous prodigal son in the capital. Wouldn't it be a joke if I still spend your money? Don't worry, I don't have to worry about expenses at all. If you want to help me... Well, you can do it tomorrow
Can your future daughter-in-law make an appointment and let me talk to her?"
This is Lu Sanpang's strategy - as for why he doesn't just leave the matter of keeping a matchmaker and pulling women directly to his mother. Nonsense, if it were that easy, wouldn't his father just go to his mother? These ladies are the loudest.
Everyone in the capital knew it once and for all. It would be self-defeating. Secondly, the storm in the city was the most scary thing. Even if Lu Wan didn't beat him to death, he would still hit the wall!
Of course, it is also important to create an opportunity to meet his fiancée, otherwise he will just ask Zhu Ying about it!
He had three days of free time. Although the first day was dedicated to the great cause of education... and the cause of foodie, Zhang Shou still took the initiative to invite Zhu Ying in the next two days, and then made a very uncreative choice.
I left the city to escape the summer heat in Zhaoyuan, Haidian...and read my homework. As for the two-person world, we can only hold hands and be a lot of servants and followers.
When he returned to the city to prepare for the opening of classes at the Imperial College, Zhu Ying received Liu Qing, his best friend, as soon as he returned home in the afternoon. When he came over in the evening, he brought Zhang Shou news that made him laugh or cry. He sent Xie Wanquan to find Lu Wan
It was a lie, but it was true that he wanted to talk to Lu Wan, but Lu Wan pushed the matter to Lu Sanlang, and Lu Sanlang asked Liu Qing to do it, and Liu Qing came to Zhu Ying again...
Is this considered a difference between a long-term worker and a short-term worker, and a short-term worker versus a helper? Or... is he going round and round to deceive himself? Lu Wan is indeed an old fox!
