When Li Qi brought Shu Wenbin to Zhang Mansion, he was already penniless.
If Shu Wenbin cannot be allowed to become Zhang's son-in-law this time, Li Qi's life will not be easy in the future.
However, he also thought of a way out. If Shu Wenbin didn't become Zhang's son-in-law, then he would go to the restaurant to tell stories, and he might win in the end.
It's just that he is very unsure of what is going on with Shen Jingbing now.
When you find an opportunity, you still have to go and inquire about it. As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be in danger.
"Please welcome Mr. Shu."
Following the butler's voice, Li Qi took Shu Wenbin to the main hall of Zhang Mansion.
I saw Mr. Zhang family sitting on the Grand Master's chair in the innermost position, and next to him was Miss Zhang family.
After Shu Wenbin entered the room, he felt a little nervous. If Li Qi hadn't been by his side and kept winking at him, he would have given up long ago.
"My Excellency Shu Wenbin, I have met Mr. Zhang and Miss Zhang." Shu Wenbin bowed and said.
Mr. Zhang looked at Shu Wenbin with a smile on his face and nodded slowly: "I heard Mr. Shu is working at Chen's Pier?"
"Back to Mr. Zhang, it's true."
"I wonder how old Mr. Shu is this year?"
"Twenty-four."
"Then tell me, what are the advantages between you and others?"
Shu Wenbin glanced at Li Qi and saw Li Qi wink at him, as if to say: Just follow what I told you.
Shu Wenbin took a deep breath, cupped his hands and said, "I heard that Miss Zhang not only knows how to do business, but also loves poetry..."
Upon hearing this, Miss Zhang looked at him with bright eyes and said, "Do you understand poetry?"
"I know a little bit about it," Shu Wenbin said.
Seeing his daughter speaking, Mr. Zhang rolled his eyes and said, "Then what are your masterpieces?"
Shu Wenbin opened the fan in his hand with a "swish", raised his head and held out his chest and said: "I have only one purpose for coming here today, and that is to come for the beauty... I was lucky enough to meet Miss Zhang once before, although it was just a brief meeting, but It haunted me so much that I wrote a poem after I returned home: If I have to see a beautiful woman today, I can only show my ugliness."
Miss Zhang was calm on the surface after hearing these words, but some waves were aroused in her heart.
Shu Wenbin followed what Li Qi taught him, fanning himself and pacing slowly in the hall.
Then, he slowly said: "There is a beautiful woman here, I will never forget it when I see her. If I don't see her for a day, I miss her like crazy. The phoenix is soaring here, and the world is asking for phoenix. But I have no choice but to see this beautiful woman, she is not on the east wall..."
This poem "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix" is the poem that Li Qi remembers best. Although it is a bit more straightforward, it is still full of emotion.
After Shu Wenbin finished reciting, he looked like a blockhead and turned around gracefully as he had rehearsed before. Then he closed his fan gently and stared straight at Miss Zhang.
Who could bear this meow? Miss Zhang's face was so shy that she even lowered her head in embarrassment when he stared at her.
Master Zhang saw it and was happy in his heart.
He has always wanted to choose a son-in-law for his daughter who is both talented and virtuous, and preferably a son-in-law from one of the three major wharf families.
Although he is focused on business, he still has to look at his daughter's wishes.
As long as his daughter doesn't agree, he won't force it.
Although today's Shu Wenbin is not the ideal candidate in his mind, seeing his daughter acting like this, he can be regarded as falling in love with her.
"What a poem, what a poem!" Mr. Zhang smiled brightly and called the housekeeper: "There will be a banquet later. Let Mr. Shu eat at the house."
"Master, what else..."
"Everyone else, please let them go back."
The housekeeper immediately woke up and couldn't help but take another look at Shu Wenbin standing in the hall.
"Nephew Shu Xian, I have something else to do. Why don't you and my daughter go to the backyard to drink tea and chat, and we will have dinner together later in the evening." Mr. Zhang stood up and said.
Shu Wenbin was stunned for a moment, glanced at Li Qi, and saw Li Qi nodded, before he said: "Everything will be arranged by Mr. Zhang."
As soon as Mr. Zhang left, Miss Zhang stood up and her tone became much gentler: "Mr. Shu, please move to the backyard. How about we enjoy the flowers together?"
"good……"
Li Qi originally wanted to follow him, but was stopped by a maid.
"Why are you following me?" the little maid asked angrily.
Li Qi wondered for a while, grandma, why are the maids of this era so unhappy with this young master?
"Of course I want to follow my young master..." Li Qi said with a smile.
"Didn't you see that the lady invited him to enjoy the flowers together? Why are you joining in the fun?"
"Then where should I go?"
The maid glanced at Li Qi, thought for a moment and said, "Come to the kitchen with me, and I'll get you some food."
Li Qi didn't say much when he saw this, he just prayed in his heart: Grandma, Shu Wenbin, Shu Wenbin, you must not mess up the matter. This young master has paved the way for you, you must control it.
ah!
By the way, Shu Wenbin followed Miss Zhang to the backyard. He was a little reserved and nervous at first. After all, Li Qi was not with him, and he was afraid that he would make a fool of himself.
But he soon discovered that although this Miss Zhang looked very strong, she was actually very talkative in private.
Every frown and every smile was so gentle, it made him intoxicated.
"Mr. Shu, you only saw me once and you still miss me?" Miss Zhang asked with a slight smile.
Shu Wenbin cupped his fists and said, "I'm rude..."
"Why is Mr. Shu like this? I'm just curious. Since you have never forgotten me, why did you only write one poem?"
Shu Wenbin hurriedly said: "Not one, but several!"
He suddenly remembered what Li Qihe said to himself that these poems were written by him in his past life. As long as he read them to Miss Zhang, they might be able to evoke her past life memories.
"How many songs?" Miss Zhang was obviously stunned for a moment.
Shu Wenbin opened his mouth and said: "The grass is green and the dew is like frost. The so-called beauty is on the side of the water..."
"The bond between life and death is broad, tell it to your son. Hold your hand, and grow old together with you..."
"If life is just like the first meeting, why is the autumn wind sad and painted on the fan..."
"Once upon a time, the sea was difficult to deal with, except for Wushan, it was nothing but clouds..."
In one moment, he recited all the poems that Li Qi asked him to recite without any pause.
Miss Zhang was okay at first, but when she heard his words coming out in a coherent manner, she was a little dumbfounded.
She has been familiar with poetry books since she was a child, and is very familiar with Daxia's famous poems. However, the poems read by the person in front of her are things she has never heard of before, and each one is full of talent!
After Shu Wenbin finished reciting all the poems, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Miss Zhang again, only to see that she was stunned.
Shu Wenbin thought: Could it be that she remembered something from her previous life?
Thinking about it, before he could speak, Miss Zhang grabbed Shu Wenbin's hand without saying a word, and looked at him lovingly: "In this life, I will not marry anyone who is not my husband..."
