Lu Liang had a strange look on his face and gave Lu Fang a look that was asking for blessings.
Wang Ye's eyes were squeezed into slits by the fat cheeks, "My dear nephew, how have you considered what we talked about with the county magistrate yesterday?"
"this……"
Lu Fang said somewhat sarcastically: "I am still young and don't want to think about marriage yet, so...the two uncles are kind to me, nephew..."
"Eh."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wang Ye, "At your age, nephew, you can talk about marriage now. Although my daughter is not a beautiful woman, she can be regarded as pretty.
No? In terms of knowledge and beauty, it’s hard to pick someone better than her in Ningyuan County, right? My nephew, to be honest, if this girl didn’t really like you, I wouldn’t want to marry her off so soon.
!”
Xu Zhilou coughed lightly from the side, "My Ruoyun is not bad, right?"
Wang Ye nodded repeatedly, "Of course."
These two guys really are wearing the same pair of pants.
Without waiting for Lu Fang to reply, Wang Ye said again: "Your Uncle Xu and I have discussed it. Since the girls from our two families are attracted to you, and they have been close friends since they were young, it would be better to marry you together."
Duan Jiahua. What do you think?"
Xu Zhilou nodded repeatedly.
Lu Fang was stunned.
Is this okay?
Married both Wang Yeyan and Xu Ruoyun?
For the rest of the people in Ningyuan County, it would be a good thing to have smoke on their ancestral graves, but Lu Fang was not willing to do so.
I don't want to marry even one woman I don't like, let alone two.
There is no saying that good things come in pairs in this kind of thing.
Unless it’s Bingdilian!
But he couldn't refuse Wang Ye and Xu Zhilou openly, lest he offend these two guys again.
Lu Fang spoke a little and said tactfully: "The two uncles are kind, but the nephew is scared. Miss Wang and Miss Xu are both rare beauties. It would be my nephew's fortune to marry either of them. However, my nephew only has ordinary assets. I'm afraid...
...If this spreads out, it will make people laugh at my nephew, right?"
"What's this?"
Wang Ye said: "It doesn't matter if a big man has his ambitions in all directions, marrying two wives. I know what you are worried about, nephew. Your Uncle Xu and I have... ahem, we have already discussed it. You haven't established any meritorious service now, so why not?"
If you don’t have a career, then marry my girl first. After two years when your career is successful, you can then marry your Uncle Xu’s second girl into the family and be an equal wife. By then, no one can make irresponsible remarks.
."
Xu Zhilou added next to him, "If my nephew is impatient and often goes to my Xu house to walk around or stay overnight, I won't care."
Stay overnight?
Doesn't this mean that he is tacitly agreeing to sleep with her daughter?
No, it's just instigation.
Are people in the Chongqing Dynasty so open-minded?
Lu Fang didn't expect that Wang Ye and Xu Zhilou had even discussed this, and he just felt like his scalp was going crazy. These two old foxes were really difficult to deal with.
This means that he has to marry their daughter to him.
He looked at Lu Liang and said with a smile: "Two uncles, let's talk about this later! Our Lu family has an ancestral motto that if an elder brother is not married, a younger brother is not as good as him. At the moment, my brother is not married yet, so you ask me to marry the king.
Miss and Miss Xu, you are asking me to violate the rules of my Lu family..."
Wang Ye and Xu Zhilou both looked at Lu Liang.
The corner of Lu Liang's mouth twitched, "There is such a rule."
Wang Ye and Xu Zhilou just chuckled.
How could they not see it?
If the Lu family had this rule, Lu Liang wouldn't have told them yet. He would have used this argument to frustrate the two of them a long time ago.
Obviously, this was a temporary fabrication by Lu Fang.
But they could see Lu Fang's intentions.
This boy from the Lu family doesn't like the girls from their two families.
Although they felt a little angry, it was not to the point of being angry. With Lu Fang's poetic talent, even they felt that it was normal for them to look down on Wang Yeyan and Xu Ruoyun.
Xu Zhilou suddenly said to Lu Liang: "Your Majesty, the eldest girl in my family is not married yet, so why not..."
Lu Liang's scalp was also numb, and he continued: "This county is busy with affairs, so let's talk about it later!"
I never thought that this fire would burn my head.
Fortunately, Xu Zhilou and Wang Ye were not aggressive.
After chatting for a while, the two got up and left.
Lu Liang sent them out of the house.
Walking back again, Lu Fang asked him, "Brother, will I offend them both by doing this?"
"Probably not."
Lu Liang said: "With their personalities, if they were angry, they wouldn't be so polite to you. I guess they might not give up so easily."
Lu Fang curled his lips, "It's all because of your bad things."
…
Wang Ye and Xu Zhilou walked out of the county government office side by side, walking on the street without riding horses.
Wang Ye said: "Brother Xu, do you think there is still hope for success in this matter?"
"Disaster."
Xu Zhilou shook his head slightly and sighed: "I didn't expect Erlang of the Lu family to be so arrogant. Although the girls from our two families are outstanding, he may not be interested in her! And the county magistrate didn't let him talk about it.
Did you go to Tanzhou to meet His Highness the Crown Prince in the morning? Tell me...is this Lu Erlang and the princess..."
"hiss."
Wang Ye suddenly took a breath, "This, this shouldn't be possible!"
Xu Zhilou said: "I also think it's absurd, but even if Lu Erlang has no chance of becoming a princess, it is still possible for him to win the favor of the princess... The princess is a talented woman of our Great Chongqing Dynasty, and Lu Erlang's poetic talent is so outstanding, it is hard to say that he will.
There is a feeling of sympathy for each other. Isn’t it also because of Lu Erlang’s poetic talent that the girls from our two families suddenly fell in love with him?"
Wang Ye frowned and became silent.
After a long while, he said: "If this Lu Erlang never lets go, what should we do?"
The several wealthy families in Ningyuan have never lacked competition secretly, but in general, they have always been advancing hand in hand. This is why even Luliang cannot underestimate them.
These big families that have been rooted in Ningyuan County for who knows how many years are really intricately connected.
Several high-ranking officials in Ningyuan County are outsiders, but countless minor officials below are from these big families, or have very close relationships with them.
It can be said that if several big families join forces, it is entirely possible to oust the county prince of Luliang.
The official system of the Great Yu Dynasty originally used officials to control officials, but officials also controlled officials.
"What can be done?"
Xu Zhilou also fell silent for a moment and sighed: "Haven't you seen that Lu Erlang has already become a phenomenon... I have a hunch that he will sound like thunder in a short period of time, shocking countless people in Ningyuan County.
.Based on his poetic talent alone, his future achievements cannot be compared with that of the county magistrate. And I think this son’s character is the best choice for the city and government. Our Ningyuan County is just a small pond to him. He
Sooner or later, the carp will jump over the dragon's gate, and if we antagonize him, it may bring disaster to us in the future."
There was deep fear in his eyes.
How high his expectations are for Lu Fang's future means how deeply he fears Lu Fang's future.
In the final analysis, the several wealthy families in Ningyuan can only cause some trouble in Ningyuan County.
Wang Ye's eyes flashed, "What do you mean, are we continuing to be on good terms with him?"
"certainly."
Xu Zhilou said: "If you really can't get married, there is nothing wrong with making friends with him. Then think of a way to let your girls and boys walk around with him more and interact with him attentively. You are said to have a keen eye for knowing people, but
You know best whether my eyes are poisonous or not. To be honest, I have never had such a strong feeling that a person will definitely be able to stand out in the future."
The king also smiled bitterly, "You put it like that, the more reluctant I am to let go of this son-in-law who is riding a dragon."
"Ah."
Xu Zhilou chuckled lightly, "Then let's see if your girl Ye Yan has this ability. Anyway, if you plan to use other methods to force him, I won't get involved."
Wang Ye pouted, "I'm not that stupid. I'm completely convinced by your vision."
This is related to the past of the two of them.
The Wang family and the Xu family are both from Ningyuan wealthy families. Wang Ye and Xu Zhilou have also been friends since childhood. They have known each other for many years. Wang Ye has an outgoing personality and Xu Zhilou is a bit boring.
And Wang Ye was able to pursue Ni Yu, a famous beauty in Ningyuan County, and did that beautiful thing of toad eating swan meat, all because of Xu Zhilou's advice.
Xu Zhilou only saw Ni Yu for the first time, and he could clearly see her character and even her preferences. Only then did Wang Ye fall in love with her and successfully win the beauty back.
Since then, Wang Ye has been admiring Xu Zhilou's vision.
