Soon, the fleet of the aristocratic families arrived along the river to Jingkou Town.
In addition to the five families of Wang Cui, Lu, Zheng and Li, who switched to Jingkou this time, there were also Hongnong Yang family, Yangzhai Chu family, and other famous families.
Therefore, Cheng Jinyang did not dare to neglect and hurriedly brought people to greet him.
As for why the five surnames families took the lead in Jingkou, rather than Wuchang where the emperor and Yu Zhongshu were, Cheng Jinyang went back to ask the girls and found out that it was true that everyone had informed the elders of the family about the arrival of the fifth rank.
Overall, the attitude of the five surnames is normal. Chu and Yang were overjoyed. The daughter was at the fifth grade before she was 20 years old. Wouldn’t she be guaranteed to be the third grade in the future?
More importantly, everyone is surrounded by Cheng Jinyang, so everyone cannot help but think about it.
The current view of the five surnamed family is that this nine-person team, including Cheng Jinyang, must have mastered some special method of exploding blood.
As for whether it is owned by Cheng Jinyang, it is hard to say.
If so, how can we explain that the Shendu Cheng family is still the only one with the fifth grade so far?
By extending this method of blood explosion, dozens of guaranteed third-tier ranks were created in the Shendu Cheng family. In the future, not to mention the five surnames, even the emperor can directly abdicate and give way to the wise.
In other words, either this method is not owned by Cheng Jinyang, and it is not up to him to decide whether to promote subjectively or not; or objectively, it does not have the conditions for large-scale promotion.
In any case, the blood explosion is much more attractive than the Iron Giant God Soldier.
The latter... At least the third ranks of the five surnames can fight together. The former will definitely surrender directly - they are all gentry brothers, please take me to fly together. If you have any price codes, just offer it!
After a symbolic parade in Jingkou, most families turned to the south by land, and bypassed Taihu Lake to Lin'an City.
However, including the five surnames, including the Chu family of Yangdi, Yang family of Hongnong, and Xing family of Hejian, a total of eight families, continued to stay in the Cheng clan of Jingkou in the name of the gentry and taking care of their daughters.
"Jinyang." Chu Jiye was the first to find Cheng Jinyang privately, and politely made a few words, then asked the question, "I heard that you have an engagement with the Xing family daughter?"
Cheng Jinyang was confused when he heard this, and Chu Jiye himself was embarrassed to ask. After all, parents of both parties should sit down and talk about it. How could they directly ask their father-in-law for their son-in-law?
However, Cheng Jinyang's parents are no longer there. Ask the patriarch, he is the patriarch himself. Are there any other elders? No more, they are all dead.
So I can only ask Cheng Jinyang himself.
"Yes." Cheng Jinyang replied restrainedly, "It was the engagement made by his father during his lifetime."
"That's it." Chu Jiye smiled and said, "The Cheng and Xing families are in the same mood, and it is understandable that Ling Zun has made a marriage contract. Although the orders of their parents are not easy to violate, you are now the head of the Cheng clan.
It should be put for a longer period of time.”
"Of course, I'm not saying that the Xing family in Hejian is not good, but the Chu family in Yangdi and the Cheng family in Shendu are also very close. Remember? We have always been the largest supplier of Tianluo military equipment."
Cheng Jinyang nodded quickly and said yes.
Indeed, the Chu family in Yangdi has always supplied a large amount of military equipment to the Cheng family in Shendu, but it was purely a trade deal, with money and goods, and there was no friendship between families...
Like the Xing family in Hejian, members have long-term marriages and intermarriages, and there are also information exchanges. Even if they speak out to the outside world, they must be unified within the two families first. That is what is called "the same spirit and the same branch"?
Of course, since Chu Jiye was interested in bringing the relationship closer at this time, Cheng Jinyang would not have directly refuted the other party's face, otherwise Qingqing would have to kill him later by cutting metal.
He was humble and flattered, and said without hesitation, saying, "The war has not yet settled, and my nephew dared not get married." Chu Jiye also understood what he meant.
It means that Cheng Jinyang hasn't thought about it yet.
If you leave it to someone else and get such an answer, Chu Jiye will immediately become angry and turn around and leave.
After all, the woman came forward and directly hinted that the man actually wanted to delay, which was too embarrassing for the woman.
However, Cheng Jinyang was young and promising after all, and was promoted to the fifth grade at less than 20 years old (what Chu Qingqing said), which was equivalent to the third grade guaranteed. In terms of talent, he was very compatible with Qingqing.
Both parents died, and the weak background of the fifth-rank family, Qingqing would not be constrained and bullied by Cheng's family even after marrying her. She was simply the best son-in-law of her natural son-in-law.
No wonder even the Wang family in Taiyuan fell in love with him!
Although the chance of winning is not great, it is definitely not embarrassing to compete for a good son-in-law with the Wang family in Taiyuan.
If Cheng Jinyang finally chose my Qingqing, then I would be Chu's son-in-law who beats Wang's family and gets a great advantage.
Take a step back and say that even if Qingqing finally loses, I, Chu, will not lose much! I have the talent of the third-grade guaranteed rank, and Isn’t it going to be robbed if I put it outside?
Therefore, Chu Jiye did not show any anger, and even put himself in his shoes and changed his perspective. He could understand why Cheng Jinyang was not in a hurry to make a choice at this time.
If you don’t get rejected, you will be successful!
"My family Qingqing has also been promoted to the fifth rank recently." Chu Jiye hinted wildly, "You are all young talents and live close to each other on weekdays. You can communicate more with each other."
"Uncle Chu Shishi said very much." Cheng Jinyang also said tactfully, "Qingqing is with Wanrou and the others on weekdays, and occasionally she will cook and wash hands to make soup. My nephew visited them the day before yesterday and was fortunate to taste Qingqing's craftsmanship, which was very surprised.
”
"Hahaha, my Qingqing does have a good cooking skills. I dare not say that I can buy dragon liver phoenix marrow, but it is not a celebrity chef in the restaurant."
Chu Jiye was happy and sad when he heard this.
What was delighted was that Qingqing had indeed shown her talents and seemed to have left a deep impression on her son-in-law.
What’s sad is that I, an old father, have never tried my daughter’s skills in so many years!
However, there are not many young ladies from aristocratic families who know how to cook these days, and their good cooking skills are often extended to the Gu family, which is a plus for "wife virtue".
Therefore, Chu Jiye and Cheng Jinyang continued to chat in depth on this topic, called inquiry, but actually for sales.
Cheng Jinyang had already received the news from Miss Qingqing and was fully prepared. Therefore, he had a great time chatting with his father-in-law, making Chu Jiye's more and more pleasing to him.
As for the metal hydrogen factory a year ago, the incident of Cheng Jinyang, who was Tianluo at that time, had long been left behind by Chu Jiye today.
An old bad thing! What should I do to mention it? People should look forward!
When he returned to the temporary resettlement office of the Chu family in Yangdi in Jingkou, Chu Jiye was inquiring about the tribe affairs and then returned to his residence.
Chu Qingqing, who had been waiting aside, quickly brought tea to greet her father obediently and asked how she was talking.
Chu Jiye took the teacup, took a sip, and was about to speak, but suddenly remembered something again, frowned and said:
"Qingqing, I'm a little hungry."
"My daughter asked the chef to bring some food," Chu Qingqing said immediately.
"Remove the word 'cake'," Chu Jiye said.
Chu Qingqing:?
"Why, I've been talking about your father for a whole day, and you don't even want to cook?" Chu Jiye raised his face.
I felt inexplicably unhappy when I thought that I hadn’t eaten the food my daughter had cooked.
"Daughter doesn't dare, what does my father want to eat?" Qingqing said gently.
"Let's just have the 'Ba Daozhen' first." Chu Jiye said casually.
