"Brother, are we really getting engaged?" Cheng Yaojia hugged her knees and asked suddenly.
"Why, you don't want to?" Liu Zhiheng looked at Cheng Yaojia and said with a smile.
"No, it just feels like a dream, it's too fast." Cheng Yaojia muttered.
"I think it's okay, but getting married is no big deal. Just live the same life as before. You still call me senior brother, and I call you junior sister." Liu Zhiheng shrugged and said with a bad smile.
When Cheng Yaojia saw Liu Zhiheng's evil smile, she knew that he had bad intentions, so she couldn't help but shyly hit him twice with her fist.
Liu Zhiheng didn't hide, but tilted his head and whispered something in Cheng Yaojia's ear, making her even more shy.
Just listen to him whispering: "Junior sister, don't worry, if you don't want to have a baby, we will do the same as before, I will use my inner strength to force it out, hehe..."
........
Baoying County, Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province has a special geographical location. It is located in the hinterland of Yangzhou, surrounded by lakes and rivers. The terrain is flat and the temperature is mild. It is very suitable for growing grain. And because it is close to the coast, transportation is convenient and constant. Therefore, people from all over the five lakes and the west sea come here. All supplies can be seen here.
As the saying goes, there is a world where there are people, and the overlord of Baoying County is none other than the Cheng family where Cheng Yaojia lives.
Speaking of the Cheng family, we have to talk about the current head of the Cheng family, Cheng Zhi'an, who is Cheng Yaojia's father and Liu Zhiheng's prospective father-in-law. Cheng Zhi'an was eager to learn when he was young, but failed the exams many times. Later, his father unfortunately passed away. As the eldest son of the family, He can only step forward and inherit the family business.
It was at this time that Cheng Zhian's business talent was discovered. Business is complicated, but it is just buying and selling. If you want a good business, reputation is very important.
Cheng Zhi'an's advantage lies in his honest appearance, which makes it easy to win the favor of others. In addition, he is smart and adaptable, and is good at seizing opportunities. In the end, he gained a reputation as a good person during a major plague, and established the Cheng family's reputation as a charitable and affordable person. Shop sign.
From then on, the Cheng family became famous and made a lot of money. When Cheng Yaojia was still young, every time she celebrated her birthday, the banquet was always full of guests, and all kinds of expensive gifts were sent to her home for free.
As the family accumulated more and more money, Cheng Zhian couldn't help but worry about whether he would be targeted.
So after asking about Cheng Yaojia's intention, he spent a lot of money to establish a relationship with the Quanzhen Sect, and sent his only daughter to the Quanzhen Sect to be a disciple of Qingjing Sanren Sun Buer, and became an ally with the Quanzhen Sect. .
You must know that the Quanzhen Sect is a famous and powerful sect in the world. Among other things, it ranks first among the Five Absolutes and has the supernatural power King Chongyang. Everyone in the world must have heard of it.
What's more, it's not like the Quanzhen Sect has no successors. The Seven Quanzhen Sect can be regarded as the mainstay, and each of them is a first-class player in the world.
With the protection of the Quanzhen Sect, the Cheng family's business is getting bigger and bigger, but Cheng Zhi'an is becoming more and more low-key. After all, he is getting older and is not as energetic as he was when he was young...
In Baoying County, Liu Zhiheng was carrying a baggage and holding Cheng Yaojia's little hand, looking at the bustling streets of the Western Zhou Dynasty with some surprise.
"I didn't expect Baoying to be so prosperous." Liu Zhiheng said with emotion.
"That's right, Baoying is the most prosperous county in Yangzhou." Cheng Yaojia said proudly with a smile on her face. She looked at the familiar and unfamiliar streets, and her eyes couldn't help but recall the scene when she was a child.
Ever since he went to Mount Zhongnan and worshiped the Quanzhen Sect at the age of twelve, Cheng Yaojia had only returned home twice, and both times were when he was still young. Looking back now, he probably hasn't returned home for three years.
"Junior sister, we're home now, why don't you arrange delicious food for senior brother?" Liu Zhiheng smiled and squeezed Cheng Yaojia's little hand.
Cheng Yaojia came to her senses and said angrily: "My home is not your home. Brother, let's go. Let's go home first. My mother must have prepared a lot of delicious food for us."
"Looking forward to it!" Liu Zhiheng said with a smile.
In Cheng Mansion, Liu Zhiheng and Cheng Yaojia were walking side by side on the path, their steps were so fast that Cheng Yaojia couldn't hide the smile on his face.
Arriving all the way to the hall, Liu Zhiheng and the two unexpectedly met their master, Sun Buer.
"Master." Liu Zhiheng said very happily when he saw Sun Buer.
The same was true for Cheng Yaojia, but after calling her master, she obediently shouted to the beautiful middle-aged woman next to Sun Buer: "Mother."
Liu Zhiheng was also smart. After seeing Sun Buer raise his eyebrows, he bowed respectfully to the beautiful woman and said, "Junior Liu Zhiheng has met my aunt."
"Haha, this is Zhiheng. He is indeed a talented person. Thank you for taking care of Yaojia all these years." Hu Xinyue said kindly.
However, Liu Zhiheng was a little embarrassed. If his aunt knew that he had taken care of his junior sister in bed, she would probably want to hack him to death.
"No trouble, no trouble, junior sister has helped me a lot." Liu Zhiheng said in a low tone.
At this time, Liu Zhiheng was not wearing the Taoist robe of the Quanzhen Sect, but a white robe embroidered with clouds. In addition, he had good facial features, was very energetic, and was quite handsome. He was a very talented person.
This made Hu Xinyue have a good impression of Liu Zhiheng. It may have been affected by his appearance, or it may be because her daughter often praised him in her letters.
In short, it’s hard to explain, maybe it’s the saying that goes by, the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she looks at him, the more she likes him!
But at this time, Hu Xinyue didn't know that master and apprentice Liu Zhiheng came to Cheng's house specifically for the purpose of getting engaged.
Good things come to pass. Sun Buer did not reveal the engagement at this time, but allowed Hu Xinyue and her daughter to enjoy the warmth of family reunion.
It was night, Cheng Zhi'an came back from the shop. In fact, Sun Bu'er came to visit. Cheng Zhi'an should have returned home long ago to greet the guests, but Sun Bu'er refused. She was not a vain person, and now she was It's a good time for overseas goods to go on the market. Cheng Zhian is busy with his affairs, so there's no need to disturb him.
In the Cheng family hall, although Cheng Zhi'an's face was full of exhaustion, his brows had a darker look. He was much more mature than he was six years ago.
Cheng Zhi'an bowed his hand to Sun Bu'er kindly and said, "Sun Xiangu is here to visit. If Zhi'an is not well received, please ask Haihan."
Sun Buer smiled, waved his hand and said, "No, no, Mr. Cheng is so polite."
Speaking of Sun Bu'er, Cheng Zhi'an felt grateful in his heart. He was grateful to her for accepting his daughter as a disciple, and also grateful to her for dragging him into the Quanzhen Sect's ship.
Cheng Zhi'an turned his eyes and looked at Liu Zhiheng in the audience, and praised: "I think this is Zhiheng's nephew. My daughter returned home several times before and praised her senior brother very well. Now when I see him, he is indeed very handsome and majestic." "
Liu Zhiheng would not do anything unreasonable in front of his prospective father-in-law. He said humbly: "Uncle, you are so complimentary."
Cheng Zhi'an smiled and nodded, and said to Sun Buer, "You are now much more humble than I was back then."
Sun Buer smiled implicitly and suddenly said: "Since Mr. Cheng likes Zhiheng so much, how about recruiting him as his son-in-law?"
The truth and falsehood of Sun Buer's words made Cheng Zhi'an confused for a while. However, Cheng Zhi'an was worthy of being an old fox. He just heard him smile heartily and said: "If my daughter and Zhiheng are in love, I can do anything."
Sun Buer nodded with satisfaction and said: "Master Cheng, to be honest, Pindao came down the mountain just for the marriage of my disciple Zhiheng and Yaojia."
"Mr. Cheng must not know something. The two of them grew up in Zhongnanshan and were childhood sweethearts. As time passes, both of them have reached the age of marriage. I think it's better for them to get married?"
Cheng Zhi'an was shocked. He looked at Liu Zhiheng who was standing in the hall, his eyes suddenly turned a little evil, "Since he really wants to be a pig, why not take my baby cabbage!"
Cheng Zhi'an didn't want to hate Sun Bu'er, so he thought for a moment and said: "This is good, but I would like to ask Sun Xiangu to give me some time. My wife has a very good relationship with my daughter. I suddenly said that my daughter is getting married. I'm afraid she will accept it." No."
"Of course, it's human nature for Master Cheng and his wife to be reluctant to part with their daughter!" Sun Buer said with a smile.
After the two chatted for a few more words, Cheng Zhi'an resigned and asked his servants to take Master Sun Buer and his disciples to visit the Cheng Mansion.
After Cheng Zhi'an left, Sun Buer's expression changed slightly. Although Liu Zhiheng could see that the master was smiling, the smile was indeed fake.
"What's wrong, Master? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Liu Zhiheng asked.
Sun Buer shook his head, swept away the servants with a sweep of the fly whisk, and took Liu Zhiheng out of the Cheng Mansion.
