Song Chunsheng: When did these two start dating? They're flirting with each other, are they really getting married?
Zhang Bangchui didn't understand what rank of general Wei Zhongshilangjiang was, but the salary of 2,000 dan of rice was something only a duke could enjoy.
Zhang Bangchui's eyes changed when he looked at Su Mo.
What rank of general can enjoy the treatment of a Duke?
Who is this person?
If the floating ticket in his hand was not real, he would have suspected that this man was a big liar.
Isn't this family a bit too high? Such a high-ranking family has set their eyes on their little girl?
Why does it feel so unreal?
Song Jinxiu also felt it was unreal.
"Are you really attracted to me?"
Su Mo: "Yeah,"
Song Jinxiu: "Marry me as the general's wife?"
Su Mo nodded: "Yeah."
Song Jinxiu blinked, considering whether to agree.
This is a general, an official higher than the prefect.
If you can grasp it, you will be able to reach the sky in one step.
Look at my stepfather. He had to pass the imperial examination to become an official, and he had to slowly climb up from a small official position. Could my stepfather become a prefect in this lifetime?
Even if you become a prefect, how many years will you have to struggle?
In this way, it seems that relying on Su Mo is more reliable.
But my senior sister said: If a man is reliable, a sow can climb a tree.
Can this man be trusted?
Song Jinxiu looked at her stepfather again, and it seemed that her stepfather was more reliable.
But stepfather is also my mother’s man!
She looked at her brother again. He was heartbroken and glared at her with disappointment. Song Jinxiu quickly lowered her head to look for her younger brother.
Xiao Qiusheng is quite knowledgeable, so he needs to be nurtured...
But can we count on him for ten years? Eight years? Or twenty years?
Song Jinxiu wavered.
Su Mo seemed to have guessed what she was thinking and quickly threw a bait. "Marry me, I can pull a carriage with two horses, a military horse."
Song Jinxiu's eyes lit up. A carriage pulled by two horses is more stable and comfortable.
Su Mo added, "The magistrate of Lunshan County must kneel down and pay his respects to you."
Song Jinxiu immediately expressed her opinion: "I agree."
Everyone: What do you mean by agreeing?
It was your parents' order and the matchmaker's words that you two secretly decided to spend your lives together in front of your parents. Is this something a decent child would do?
Finally, Zhang Bangchui sat with Su Mo in the living room and talked, while Tian Xinghua and Song Chunsheng dragged Song Jinxiu to Junbaoyuan like a chicken and tortured her for a confession.
No one noticed that Jinfang and Qiusheng walked out of the door while whispering to each other.
Soon, the old patriarch came over, trembling with a cane.
They were called by Xiao Qiu Sheng and Jin Fang.
The two of them didn't know what kind of official position this Wei Zhong Shi Lang Jiang was, so they decided to ask the teacher.
They met the old patriarch on the way, and they thought it would be the same to ask the patriarch's great-grandfather.
The old patriarch was struck by lightning when he heard this.
What? Who's so foolish as to want to marry my baby? No way.
The old man was so anxious that he moved his legs very fast, fearing that he would be late. Jinxiu Niang agreed in a hurry.
As he got older, his legs became a little unsteady when he moved fast, and he swayed back and forth like an old lady with bound feet. Tiedan was so scared that he stretched out his arms to protect him.
The arrival of the old patriarch naturally triggered another round of greetings.
The old patriarch had prepared many words of objection, but when he saw Su Mo, he immediately pretended to be serious.
Although Su Mo hid the murderous aura in his body,
But it is said that old people become more shrewd. The old patriarch has seen countless people in his life, and this is the first time he has met such a steady young man.
Therefore, as the patriarch of the Song family, he must be able to hold his own and not weaken the momentum of the Song family.
Su Mo asked the old patriarch to take the seat.
"Um"
The old patriarch nodded and sat down in the main seat with confidence.
Then he motioned Su Mo to sit down as well.
The maid brought tea, and the old patriarch took a sip with dignity before saying, "I heard from our child that you want to marry our Jinxiu. Have you asked a matchmaker to come?"
Su Mo quickly stood up and said, "The official media is in the process of making preparations. I came here this time to meet with the elders so that we can make preparations in advance."
The old patriarch nodded and looked at him, thinking that he was quite thoughtful.
Although this boy looks a little thin, he is full of energy.
Well, you are a general who defends the country. You should lose some weight and look more energetic.
The old patriarch asked again: "Is it your parents' order?"
Su Mo said, "My parents have passed away, and I am the only one in the family."
Once the marriage is settled and he returns to the capital, he will naturally have to ask the emperor to grant the marriage.
An orphan?
The old patriarch's eyes were bright and reserved, but he looked at Su Mo with a gentle look.
It’s good to be an orphan, because an orphan can marry into the wife’s family!
"Oh, child, without brothers and sisters, there is no one to help you. It's too lonely to be alone. Look at our family, it's so lively with so many people. Child, have you ever thought about settling down in our Songjia Village in the future?
Let me tell you, our girl is looking for a husband. If you can marry into our family, our family will be big, and if anyone bullies you, the whole family will fight for you."
Su Mo said in embarrassment, "I'm afraid not. I'm a general in the imperial guards, and I'm a Duke of Zhenguo. I'm afraid I can't marry into the family."
"thump"
Zhang Bangchui knelt down.
"thump"
The old patriarch was a little slow and also knelt down.
"Please forgive your sins, Duke." The old man trembled.
What was he thinking? If the Duke married into the family, the heads of the entire family would be chopped off.
Zhang Bangchui: No wonder he gets a salary of 2,000 dan of rice. So he's really a Duke!
Su Mo quickly turned aside and refused to accept the gift. He stepped forward to support the old patriarch and gestured for Zhang Bangchui to stand up as well.
"Old Patriarch, there is no need to be so polite. I am the younger generation today, so you can speak frankly if you want to."
The old patriarch trembled and looked at Su Mo, "Is it really okay to tell you?"
Su Mo nodded: "No problem."
The old patriarch thought to himself: It doesn’t matter, I don’t dare to say it.
How did Xiu Yatou end up attracting such a person to her home?
The Duke of Zhenguo...
No, no, this is not right.
The old patriarch looked at Su Mo with a fierce look in his eyes.
"You said you are the Duke of Zhenguo? As far as I know, we in Cangwu only have one Duke of Zhenguo. During the Five Kings Rebellion, the people were living in dire straits. The Duke of Zhenguo stepped forward and turned the tide. In the end, he died young in order to save the current emperor.
It is said that the Duke of Zhenguo has only one son, who disappeared at the age of six. This is a fact known to all the women and children in Cangwu. You say you are the Duke of Zhenguo? Are you lying to me?
Even I have come out, which shows that the old patriarch is angry.
Su Mo explained, "I inherited the title of Duke at the age of six. I entered the Hidden Sect that year and returned at the age of sixteen. So, old clan leader, don't worry. I'm not a liar, and no one dares to claim the title of Duke."
That year, he was only six years old. Although his father had made great military achievements, he also had many enemies.
After his father passed away, he suffered more than ten assassination attempts in just one month.
His mother had no choice but to send him to join the hidden sect, where he stayed for ten years.
When I returned home at the age of sixteen, I found out that my mother and sister were both gone.
The Su family army also became a mess.
After my father died, my uncle took over the Central Army and temporarily served as the General of the Guard.
Later, my mother was worried that my uncle would become too powerful, so she let my brother-in-law lead the Western Army and let her confidant Cheng Yuan take over as the Lieutenant General of the Eastern Army.
So the first thing he did when he came back was to take over the Su family army again.
