Chapter 73 Talk

When people were allowed to enter the yard, the Fan family's yard naturally could not be compared with the Zhang family. It was just a dozen courtyards, and the family was not prosperous, unlike the Zhang family, who had dozens of relatives.

At this time, Fan Tianyang had already come out of the main flower hall. He thought he was reserved, and all the people came were juniors, so it was appropriate to give him a greeting and greeting, but after sitting in the flower hall for a while, he couldn't help it. As Mrs. Fan laughed, she still walked to the door of the flower hall. After walking around, she looked towards the door from time to time. The servants at home were laughing when they saw the old man's face scratching his head. They only heard that the future son-in-law was afraid of his father-in-law, but they had never heard that his father-in-law was so anxious to meet his future son-in-law.

When his two sons led Zhao Shi and Zhang Shiwen to the front of the flower hall, Fan Tianyang listened to the servant's report and turned back to the flower hall to sit. It was not until they came to the front of the main hall that the old man walked out in a fake manner, but his eyes glanced past Zhang Shiwen and looked at Zhao Shi enough.

Zhang Shiwen didn't know the nature of this father-in-law. He was amused and quickly took Zhao Shi to greet him. After a few greetings, he immediately went to the flower hall to take a seat.

Mrs. Fan is from a small family and has no airs. Although the Fan family has a small family business in Gongyi County, it is not very small, and there are not many rules. She turns around and sits in the main seat, Zhang Shiwen and Zhao Shi sit on the left head, and Fan Tianyang's two sons are with her.

When the incense tea was served and the snacks were arranged, except for the two girls who served the old lady who poured tea and water to everyone from time to time, there were no outsiders in the hall.

As soon as the hall calmed down, everyone's eyes were all focused on Zhao Shidi. In such an occasion, Zhao Shi was nervous and couldn't stand it. He moved on the chair a few times uneasy, and became particularly uncomfortable.

The first person to speak was Zhang Shiwen. He smiled and said, "My father-in-law is in good health recently. My son-in-law was busy with official business a while ago and did not come to visit you two elders. Don't be surprised."

Fan Tianyang laughed and his voice was loud, "It's nothing, our old couple is so stunning, you don't have to worry about it. It was a few days ago that the county robbers were in trouble. I don't know what the situation was like in the end. I just heard that the thieves were wiped out. Is this news true?"

After saying these words, Fan Tianyang looked at Zhao Shi. It was obvious that he wanted to bring the topic to him. Zhang Shiwen naturally understood and smiled, "Before he introduced his father-in-law, this is my incompetent cousin. When he talked to his father-in-law a few years ago, he was still playing carefree in Zhaojia Village. However, a few days ago, my uncle unfortunately died, leaving only the family of four orphans and widows to live. So he went to join the army, and now he has been the commander of the Imperial Army, which has achieved some success.

Speaking of the bandits in the county, it was my cousin who led people to wipe out it, and he also earned the title of Gong Yi's tiger. My cousin, have you seen Uncle Fan's family?"

At this time, no matter how reluctant Zhao Shi was, he could only take one step at a time. He stood up and gave a gift to Fan Tianyang. He didn't know what to say on this occasion, so he sat back on the chair and frowned slightly. She disagreed with the marriage at first, and did not mean that she looked down on the other party's family affairs. She was also from a small family. She was gentle and did not have the same idea as a wealthy family. However, her daughter was only eight years old. Before her sister talked about marriage, she hurriedly gave her younger daughter out. She was always uneasy. After seeing this young man, she was still Zhou Zheng, and she always had a cold face. It looked very difficult to get along with, so she couldn't help but take some more thoughts for her daughter.

But Fan Tianyang had a completely different idea from her. Marrying a daughter is different from marrying a wife. Marrying a wife naturally requires marrying a kind of gentle temperament and able to live a family life. But when marrying a daughter, you have to find someone with ability to get married. No matter how good a man is, if he has no strengths and is bullied, how can he give his daughter to the other party with confidence, right? Although this young man acted a little rudely, he seemed to be a dislike, but as a man, he was very useless in his mouth. If this young man came up, he would be slick and kind words rolled in. Fan Tianyang really had to hesitate. But now, although he just beat him up, he had already agreed halfway.

At noon, there was nothing to say. He prepared wine and food, and several men gathered together to eat and chat. As the saying goes, "A man is old, a ghost, a spirit, and Zhang Shiwen said a lot of good things to Zhao Shi at Fan Tianyang, but Fan Tianyang didn't believe it very much. He didn't know the art of observing people, nor could he see other people's character in the details. But he only recognized one thing in his life, which was how a man could see a person's true nature when drinking. During the meal, he couldn't help but persuade him to drink, but he didn't drink much, but forced others to dry up all the wine. This kind of trick is naturally uneasy among his peers, but there is no other lady on the table, except for his wife, who was not from his juniors, and naturally ate everyone.

His two sons also raised their glasses frequently. After a few rounds, Zhang Shiwen, who had been suffering from a hangover last night, couldn't stand it anymore. He lay on the table and was unaware of the situation. After drinking, the old man was completely satisfied with the boy. He didn't talk much at the table. He drank the glass and was extremely courageous. Although he went out many times, those who had the alcohol tolerance were all good men. It was rare that he didn't speak much at the table. He looked calm and had a calm temperament. As for his temperament, he was indeed a little cold and he didn't look like a smile on his face. However, this boy is already a famous person now and may still be a general in the future. This way, he looks like he has the majesty of an official family, right?

At the dinner table, he also found that Zhang Shiwen was still a little afraid of this cousin who was more than teenager than him, and he might not even realize it. But Fan Tian was not in vain to support such an old age. Zhang Shiwen and his two sons were used to laughing. He had no reason to make it more regular when he came to his cousin. He spoke very well, as if he was afraid of saying something wrong in front of his cousin. There was something strange about it. Naturally, he didn't know what happened at the Zhang family yesterday, so Zhang Shiwen saw it. How could there be no psychological shadow left in his heart?

But in Fan Tianyang's eyes, it was another matter. Who can be respected by others? Of course, they are people with great abilities. Now the eldest son-in-law is already the salt supervisor in the county and is respectful to his cousin. Although it seems a bit naive, from this, the words that the eldest son-in-law said at his home a few years ago were mostly true, and he couldn't help but feel more satisfied.

The meal was eaten until the sun set. His two sons were helped out one after another before it was over. Only he and Zhao Shi were left in the room, and even his wife had already gone to the back to rest.

Then Fan Tianyang waved his hand and said drunkenly: "Go, please come out and pour us a few cups of tea."

Zhao Shi drank a lot. He went out for five or six times, and his throat felt sore, but he also felt that the beauty of his body was now. Although most of the wine was vomited out, it was estimated that at least half of it was left in the stomach and intestines. But now, he still had no bad reactions, his mind was very clear, and his alcohol tolerance was really good.

However, after listening to Fan Tianyang's words, he started to sweat from behind. His eyes turned, and he felt that it was too late to run away now. Didn't he say that he couldn't see the child when he proposed the marriage? Why did the rules change here? I asked very well last night. When I asked the wedding, I just met. As long as the other party accepted the gift, it means that the other party agreed. If he refused the gift, there would be no chance. In fact, calling the person over was just to see if he looked like a clever one.

If you take a brief look at your words and deeds, things will be over. The blind date scenes that you heard in your previous life are not much more complicated than those in the past. The most important thing is that even if the other party receives a gift and agrees to the marriage, they have to wait until the other party’s daughter becomes an adult before they can get married. This is why Zhao Shi can agree to this. Even if the other party immediately agrees to the marriage, the other party’s daughter is only nine years old and is adult? At least a few years have to wait? Maybe something might happen in the middle, right?

However, not only did he eat a meal, but he also added an extra program to ask the little girl to pour tea and water. The meaning is naturally self-evident. This proposal was a complete success, and the other party was satisfied with him and could not be satisfied anymore.

Zhao Shi was full of bitterness, and he didn't know what the old man looked like in front of him. Since he entered the mansion, he hasn't said a few words, and he deliberately poured a lot of alcohol into his old man, and even drank Zhang Shiwen first, missing an accomplice. Could this be the old man drink too much? This is OK? In his previous life, he only heard people say that he was aloof and rude person, but no one said a few good things about himself. Is it such a big way to have a gap in thoughts in ancient and modern times? Even looking at people is contrary to others?

Thinking of this, I felt uncomfortable all over, so I said, "Uncle, you have drunk too much. I think you should have rested, right? It's getting late, so it's time for me to go back?"

Fan Tianyang looked at him with a drunken eye and laughed. It seemed that he had drunk too much. "Do you guys not look down on our Fan family? Although I, Fan Tianyang, have no ability, I can see some things clearly. Was it forced by that boy Zhang Shiwen? I was very reluctant? Don't think that we are old and confused. Some things are clear and clear in my heart. But since you are here, I will also say something to you. Anyway, there are only two of us here, so I'm not afraid of embarrassing people.

A man can only survive in this life for decades at most. Naturally, he always wants to do something big. To put it in a big way, fame, wealth, and the country and the people are not something that ordinary people can count on. To put it in a small way, it is better if a child and a wife are warm and harmonious.

I am not afraid of you making jokes. My uncle, I recognized your aunt back then, and I didn't listen to anyone who said anything, just to see what your aunt could do... That's called it, by the way, it's called taking care of your husband and children. Look at it now, although your uncle is not as wealthy as other families, it is better than a comfortable place, and there are no messy things.

Isn’t there a saying? Family harmony is prosperous.

I'm not your uncle, I'm boasting. My three daughters may be a bit petty than those ladies, but they are all the same temperament as her mother, and they are people who live...

I am not afraid of you saying that your uncle is shameless. I just look at you at a young age and exudes a sense of steadyness. I am better than my two sons. With this, I can give you my daughter to you. I can guarantee you that no matter how big the things you do outside in the future, you don’t have to worry about the trivial matters at home anymore. What about it? You should put your heart in your stomach this time, right?"
