Hearing Hua Yuan'er's thoughtful speech, Tang Ji silently gave him a thumbs up in his heart, but he also missed Jiang Ran.
Before I knew it, we had been separated for more than two months.
However, how are you doing in Kyoto?
But Chen Changye's face darkened, his brows furrowed, and he raised his hand and pointed at Hua Yuan'er: "Boy, I don't care whether you are sincere or you are acting here with me, I said, Wu Tao is my woman, if you know the truth, now
Just get out, otherwise you can't afford the consequences!"
Wu Tao was about to continue speaking, but Hua Yuan'er took the initiative to step forward and responded domineeringly: "I'm standing here, what can you do to me?"
Seeing that the other party was strong, Chen Changye did not dare to act rashly. He nodded and took two steps back, then looked at Wu Chengyun on the main seat above: "Master Wu, this is the answer you gave me, isn't it?"
At this time, Wu Chengyun had no ink left, so he stood up slowly, spread his hands and said, "As Master Chen heard, my daughter already has someone she likes. You'd better invite her back."
After hearing what he said, Chen Changye's face became even more angry: "Okay, okay, you are treating me like a monkey, right? Wait, you all just wait for me!"
Without saying a word, he led his two servants and walked out of the lobby without looking back.
Soon after, a servant came to report that Chen Changye had left with his betrothal gift.
Wu Chengyun breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the chair again. Several scattered raised wrinkles appeared on his sallow face, which showed that he was upset at the moment. He sighed again and then looked at Wu Tao.
: "Tao'er, didn't my father say that you don't have to come forward when encountering such a thing? Also, how could you let Hua Shaoxia pretend to be your fiancé? If word spread, it would not only ruin Hua Shaoxia's reputation, but also your
How will you get married in the future?"
"My daughter is worried that Chen Changye will embarrass her father!" Wu Tao clasped his hands in front of his abdomen, lowered his head silently, and after some inner struggle, continued: "Dad, I didn't let brother Yuan'er pretend to be, he is me.
My fiancé is my daughter-in-law whom I have chosen since childhood."
Hearing her words, Hua Yuan'er raised the corners of his mouth, and a big stone in his heart suddenly fell to the ground.
Previously, his adoptive father had also looked for several good-looking girls for him in the village, but he rejected them all at that time. The reason was that he could not let go of the marriage that had been planned since his mother's womb. He couldn't help but recall the two girls in his mind.
Scenes of people playing together when they were young, eating a bowl of rice when they were hungry, drinking a glass of water when they were thirsty, and sleeping in the same bed when they were sleepy...
"What are you talking about? When did your father make a decision for you..." Wu Chengyun was halfway through his words when he suddenly realized something and jumped up from his seat: "Tao'er, he, he is
That brother Yuan'er you often talked about when you were a kid? But isn't he dead?"
Wu Tao nodded: "Dad, my daughter misunderstood. Brother Yuan'er was also rescued back then, so we can meet again today."
"This...how is this possible?" Wu Chengyun felt a little unbelievable. He couldn't help but look at Wu Jun, who was sitting on the seat next to him. Then he exhaled and said directly: "Tao'er, no matter how you were before, you have to
You know, you are my daughter now, so your marriage should be decided by your father."
Hearing this, Wu Tao nodded slightly, lowered his head, and asked softly: "Is dad dissatisfied with brother Yuan'er?"
Hua Yuan'er seemed very relaxed, as long as he was sure that Tao'er was still interested in him, he quickly said: "Uncle Wu is right, you have raised Su Su for fifteen years, and you should really make the decision on her marriage. I will
Prove yourself to you.”
Wu Jun, who was sitting next to him, looked up at him with no expression on his face.
Soon, Wu Chengyun waved his hand: "Okay, we will discuss this later. You can go and rest first."
After hearing his words, Hua Yuan'er and Wu Tao briefly looked at each other, bowed, and left one after another. Only Tang Ji stayed where he was.
Wu Chengyun looked at him and asked in confusion: "Mr. Tang, do you have anything else to do?"
Tang Ji walked to the side chair and sat down. He had also paid attention to Wu Chengyun and his son just now. He thought that this old guy picked Wu Tao back as his daughter-in-law. He didn't expect that Hua Yuan'er would take him over, but he
Regardless of their expressions, he touched his chin with one hand and asked: "The Chen family's betrothal gift to Miss Wu can be regarded as a kind of wooing of the Wu family. Now the head of the Wu family has rejected the young master of the Chen family. In other words,
Aren't you worried that the Wu family may suffer revenge from the Chen family next?"
Just as Wu Chengyun was about to relax, his brows furrowed again, he picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and replied calmly: "I said, if the Chen family keeps forcing each other, I will fight with them!"
"Fight?" Tang Ji turned to glance at him and continued: "Fight for what? Fight for power. The Chen family is protected by the government. Fight for money. The Wu family is far behind him. Fight for power. You can also say that Chen
There are many masters in the family, how much can the Wu family master do if he takes advantage of the entire Wu family? Have you ever thought about what Mr. Wu should do, what Wu Tao should do, and there are so many people and shops in your Wu family,
What should the industry do?”
Wu Chengyun unconsciously raised his hand and looked up at the ceiling, closing his eyes for a moment: "Then what do you think I should do? I can't really let Tao'er marry that bastard Chen Changye, right?"
A mysterious smile appeared on Tang Ji's face: "I can help you."
"You? Help me?" Wu Chengyun instantly narrowed his eyes and re-examined the young man in front of him. Naturally, he didn't believe it in his heart, but out of politeness, he still replied smoothly: "It's Mr. Tang's kindness..."
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Tang Ji raised his hand and interrupted: "Master Wu, there is no need to rush to reject or doubt my ability. Let's put the words here first. You will know later whether I am qualified to help."
you."
After saying that, he pressed the handle with both hands, stood up quickly, and walked towards the door.
Looking at Tang Ji's back, Wu Jun pursed his lips: "Dad, I always feel that this Mr. Tang is something special. I also asked the guards in the house to observe him last night. His martial arts is not high, but he is one of the four knights."
The leader among the scholars must have a special status!"
After listening to his words, Wu Chengyun also nodded: "Then let's take it one step at a time. However, we must also be prepared to avoid the Chen family's revenge and be helpless."
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but say: "Jun'er, Tao'er..."
Before Wu Chengyun could finish his words, Wu Jun shook his head: "Dad, I have always regarded Tao'er as my younger sister, and I have no feelings for her at all. Please don't mess around with her. But Hua Yuan'er's
The boy really needs a test. Our Wu family has raised flowers for so many years, how can we let him pick them casually!"
Hearing what he said, Wu Chengyun couldn't say anything else: "Okay!"
"Then if there is nothing wrong with the father, the child will leave first." After Wu Jun bowed his hands and saluted, he turned and left. As soon as he turned around, the smile on his face disappeared and was replaced by a touch of sadness.
On the other side, Tang Ji left the lobby but did not see Hua Yuan'er and Wu Tao, so he had to return to the side courtyard first.
At this time, Cheng Tie and Li Qingmei had also gotten up. When Cheng Tie, who was brushing his teeth, saw him coming back, he quickly wiped his hands, took out a sealed letter from his sleeve and handed it over: "Brother Tang, this is a brother from the Xiaoyao League who just left the camp.
A secret message from the state."
A few days after Tang Ji announced the news of the Xiaoyao Alliance to everyone in Fang Wei, the Xiaoyao League was officially launched. The first thing to establish was secret messaging. It had already connected with Kyoto. Without thinking too much, he poured a glass of water and drank it.
He opened the secret letter easily, but as soon as he saw the contents of the letter, he almost choked on the water.
"Ahem, that silly girl came to the northwest?"
