Chapter 492 Lu Gong is very human
When the guests dispersed, Duke Lv invited Liu Ji to enter the back hall, sat down, ordered his servants to make fragrant tea, and Feng Jinyu did not leave.
Feeling that the atmosphere in the back hall was extremely solemn, Liu Ji couldn't help but feel a little worried. However, fortunately, he is outgoing, bold, and he believes that he is a bachelor. There is nothing to worry about. So, he politely took a sip of tea and asked, "I don't know what's wrong with Lord Lu?"
Lv Gong looked at Liu Ji and said sincerely, "Mr. Liu is elegant, extraordinary in appearance, with his hands and feet, and he must not be a thing in the pool. At the first sight of Mr. Liu, I was deeply surprised, so I secretly asked Ning County and learned that Mr. Liu had not yet made a family. I have a biological daughter named Lvzhi in my family. I intend to marry you as my wife. What does Mr. Liu think?
When Liu Ji heard the words, a mouthful of tea almost spewed out and exclaimed, "Ah?!"
He was really scared, and this matter was completely beyond his expectation. At this time, he was nearly 40 years old. Due to his poor family and low official position, he is still alone and has not married. And Lv Gong is obviously an extraordinary elder and an old friend of the county magistrate. If he climbs to this marriage, his life in the area of Pei County will be much better in the future.
At this moment, he is in full bloom. However, he still tried his best to suppress his true feelings and dared not show too much joy to avoid being criticized.
After thinking about it and considering the words, Liu Ji said, "Thank you, Lord Lu, for your appreciation. The younger generation is deeply frightened. If you can connect with Ling Ai, you will be lucky for three lifetimes. It's just a marriage event, not a child's play, and how about allowing the younger generation to tell their parents before replying?
It's inevitable to call yourself a subordinate to your father-in-law! Liu Ji has been in officialdom for so many years, and naturally he understands this.
Liu Ji is not very human. When he first spoke, he claimed to be a subordinate. Now when he heard that Lv Gong intended to marry his daughter to him, he immediately changed his name, and it was changed very naturally and did not feel awkward at all.
"Of course, that's right," Lu Gong smiled and nodded repeatedly. Lu Gong liked this future son-in-law very much.
It is said that all the old people have become refined, and Lu Gong is naturally no exception. From the change of Liu Ji's attitude and name, he knew that Liu Ji had agreed to the marriage in his heart, and expected that Liu Ji's parents would not raise any objection. After all, Liu Ji is just a small official, and he is nearly 40 years old. He is older than the age of marriage. He will definitely not refuse this kind of marriage!
The words have been made clear. Liu Ji knew that it was inconvenient to stay for a long time, so he sat down for a moment, chatted a few words, and then said that there were still friends waiting outside. He politely said goodbye.
Liu Ji just stepped out of the door of the back hall. The curtain of a room on the side of the back hall suddenly lifted, and an old woman came out of it. As soon as she appeared, she immediately shouted loudly: "You old fool, you used to tell my mother that our daughter is different and must marry a rich man. He. When I came to Pei County, the magistrate of Ning County wanted to marry his daughter as a daughter-in-law. What a good marriage. The family is right and the age is the same. I have the intention to agree, but you said it was not suitable and resolutely refused, so I will follow you. But today, you didn't tell me in advance and vaguely betrothed your daughter to Liu Ji. Who is Liu Ji? He is nearly 40 years old, and there is no industry at home, and he is just a small pavilion chief. How promising is such a person as our youngest official position in Daqin?
The person who came is Lv Gong's wife, Mrs. Lu!
"Shh...be quiet!" Seeing his wife coming, he shouted loudly. Lv Gong's face changed slightly and quickly stopped her, because at this time, the Ning County magistrate was still drinking and chatting with several distinguished guests outside. It would be bad if it shocked him. After all, they are now under the shelter of others.
However, Mrs. Lu didn't give up and said angrily, "Shh, did you drink too much? The magistrate of Ning County took us in. It's enough for you to refuse him to propose marriage, but you won't marry your daughter to Liu Ji, a poor man. Are you angry with the county magistrate? Fortunately, they also took us in. You have suffered a pheasant!"
Lv Gong was furious, his face darkened, and he shouted angrily, "What do you know as a woman? Do I want my own daughter to suffer in the future? When did I miss someone? Didn't you see Liu Ji's magnificent appearance? No one with this kind of appearance is a general person. Although he is not famous now, it's just that the time has not come. He is the dragon and phoenix among people. I won't look at the wrong person. Keep your eyes wide and wait and see!"
Mrs. Lv laughed and said, "What kind of people are the dragons and phoenixes? I said that he is almost the snakes and chickens among people. Is there any famous people who are nearly 40 years old?"
Lv Gong waved his hand and said resolutely, "What do you know? Women are just brainless and ignorant. If he is superior now, it is impossible for you to talk to him. There is no chance to please him, let alone get married to him. Don't say any more. I've made up my mind. I have to marry pheasant to Liu Ji. It's useless for anyone to say it!"
"Good! Then it depends on you. I want to see what kind of son-in-law I met! Humph!" Mrs. Lu saw that his wife's tone was firm and unwavering at all. She knew his temper and it was inconvenient to quarrel any more, so she left a word and left angrily.
Liu Ji walked out of the county gate and left with Xu Han.
The two stepped on the moonlight and walked along Peixian Street. Along the way, Liu Ji spit and talked loudly about the adventure just now, dancing and dancing with enthusiasm.
Xu Han was surprised. What surprised him was not that Liu Ji had such an adventure, or that Liu Ji was drunk and talking nonsense. He believed that what Liu Ji said was true. What surprised him was Lv Gong's vision. He knew that he could see that Liu Ji would definitely be king and be rich in the future, and Lv Gong, relying on the naked eyes of ordinary people alone. At a glance, he could see that the depressed Liu Ji in front of him must make great achievements in the future, and resolutely betrothed his daughter to Liu Ji. This vision and courage were serious. !
The two walked all the way and chatted all the way. After walking for a long time, they actually walked to the gate.
It's just that the gate is closed at this time and I can't leave the city. So the two found an inn near the gate of the city.
Liu Ji drank a lot of wine and was appreciated by Lv Gong. He was looking forward to his family and felt comfortable for a moment. As soon as his head touched the pillow, he snored like thunder and fell asleep.
Xu Han looked at Liu Ji sleeping like a pig and shook his head with a wry smile. If he hadn't learned the method of looking at Qi and confirmed that Liu Ji was a big nobleman, he would not have bothered to play with him. However, since there is some good fate, he naturally has to make good use of it. As for the real purpose of this trip, Jin Fengyu, it is secondary. Anyway, she is now by Lv Gong's side, so she can ignore her for the time being.
Xu Han called Xiao Er, gave him a few gold coins, and told him that he would rest here with Liu Ji for a few days and not allow anyone to disturb him.
When the store Xiaoer saw the gold coin in Xu Han's hand, his eyes were straight and his saliva flowed down. He immediately patted his chest and said that everything was wrapped around him. As long as he was there, no one dared to knock on the door.
After the guarantee, the shop's little two eyebrows left with a smile.
Seeing Xiao Er leave, Xu Han closed the door, went to the bed, looked at Liu Ji, who was sleeping soundly, and whispered, "Brother Liu, I will send you to a comfortable place to sleep!"
With that, Xu Han picked up the sleeping Liu Ji with one hand, just like an eagle catching a chicken, then took out the transmission array and stood on the array step by step...
Returning to the cave in the Grand Canyon outside Mengshan, Xu Han put Liu Ji down, then sat down cross-legged, and soon entered the state of cultivation.
A few hours later, it was estimated that it was almost dawn. Xu Han slowly opened his eyes, stood up, used the change mark to turn himself into the white-haired old man, and then used the transmission array to transmit himself to the bridge where he met Zhang Liang yesterday.
At this time, before dawn, only a trace of fish belly was white in the eastern sky, and there was no one around.
Xu Han was slightly disappointed when he didn't see Zhang Liang, but he was not in a hurry and sat cross-legged on the bridge waiting for him.
