Chapter 1056(1/2)
At this time, the man with squinting eyes said something
"Time waits for no one. The person above is impatient, otherwise we will have to replace him."
"How dare you threaten me?" Yongquan stood up from his chair with a sudden sound, his eyes blazing.
"How dare you? It's just a fact. If you don't think about yourself, you also have to think about your family."
"You" Yongquan exudes a fierce aura, but you can control yourself very well.
Yongquan's behavior, which the man didn't care about, remained the same.
Yongquan's expression kept changing. The next second, Yongquan couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't blow his head off.
But
"Hey, I agreed, but I just have a few conditions."
"Say, don't go too far."
"I want to send my grandson away first." Yongquan gritted his teeth. His son had died in the battle, and his grandson must guarantee it first no matter what.
"No problem. By the way, why bother with sending it out and coming back?" The man gave Yongquan a meaningful look.
Yongquan didn't say anything. Now that he had made up his mind, he would keep going.
"I still need time to make arrangements."
"It's up to you, we will cooperate with you." The man had already stood up and left.
Yongquan just watched the other party leave, sitting on the chair and not moving for a long time.
Near noon the next day, Zhao Man sent someone to invite Gu Zheng to go back to Zhen Lou for a reunion. Gu Zheng said hello to Xue'er and went to the banquet.
Huizhenlou is the largest restaurant in Nanyue City, with a total of four floors. The first and second floors are ordinary halls. There are small private rooms on the third floor. There are a total of four private rooms on the fourth floor, corresponding to the four corners.
Ordinary halls are not as noisy as ordinary restaurants, and most of them are whispered. There are at most talented people, beautiful ladies, and high-ranking officials here. No one speaks loudly like those lower-class people, which is too rude.
Of course, Zhao Man was also in one of the private rooms on the fourth floor.
When Gu Zheng arrived, Hahaha had someone specially to receive Gu Zheng and took him all the way there. Zhao Man had arrived early and was waiting for Gu Zheng.
There were only two people in the huge box, Zhao Man and Gu Zheng.
Zhao Man didn't mention anything first and politely asked Gu Zheng to sit down.
"Cousin, this is the first time we met. I was a little bit disrespectful. I will punish myself with three cups of wine first. Please forgive me, cousin."
Zhao Man drank three glasses of wine without saying a word.
Zhao Man was also sincere for Xue'er. He followed Xue'er and called him cousin Gu Zheng, and his attitude was very similar.
Gu Zheng pretended to be confused and said, "It's okay, we don't know each other if we don't fight." Although he was the one making the fight, he still knew each other, so this was not wrong.
"Haha." Zhao Man's expression was a little awkward, but he still pretended to smile and said, "My cousin is so humorous."
"I don't know where my cousin's home is." Zhao Man probed carefully,
"Hungry, Brother Zhao, you and I are about the same age, so just call me Gu Zheng." Gu Zheng felt a little weird being surrounded by Zhao Man's cousins one after another.
"Our family lives on the other side of the mountain. Most people can't find it. I am the eldest in our family. I make the decisions in our family." Gu Zheng made it up randomly, but at least there is something going on. He is the boss.
"That's great, Brother Gu. People in the Ming Dynasty don't tell secret stories." Zhao Man couldn't help it anymore, "I like Xue'er, and I want to propose marriage to her. Please make it happen, Brother Gu."
Parents' orders have been very effective since ancient times, especially for a lonely person like Xue'er. If there are relatives who make the decision, they can completely replace their parents.
"As you know, our family doesn't have many rules, but it's a little different from others. If possible, I won't object. After all, you did a lot of things for me, and my cousin also told me."
Gu Zheng started talking nonsense seriously.
This made Zhao Man's mood fluctuate, like a roller coaster, going up and down.
"How can you agree that I will give everything I have to marry Miss Xue'er." Zhao Man was a little anxious. He put his hands on the table and leaned his upper body towards Gu Zheng.
"Are you willing to give up all your wealth and status, and go back to the dilapidated mountain village with us, where there is no big fish or meat, just plowing at sunrise and returning at sunset, a poor and simple life?"
Zhao Man's body stiffened instantly, and he asked himself, would he be willing to give everything for her? Would he be willing to give up this noble status and live a secluded life with her?
Zhao Man remembered how cute and kind she was when he first met her two years ago.
She just walked into my heart inconspicuously, and I fell hopelessly in love with her. I cared about everything, understood her world, and slowly fell into it.
Gu Zheng watched Zhao Man's initial astonishment slowly turn into a smile.
"I do." Zhao Man said firmly. At this moment, Zhao Man felt that he was willing to trade the whole world for Xueer's smile.
"Okay, you passed." Gu Zheng knew that this was what he really thought. Although he still has love, he has been alone from the time he was on earth to now. Maybe he has been alone for a long, long time, but it does not mean that he will not be alone for a long time.
I admire people like Zhao Man.
"As long as Xue'er doesn't object and is willing to marry you, I have no objection."
Zhao Man felt that he was radiating joy from the inside out, "I will ask my father to propose marriage and give Miss Xueer a grand wedding. Don't worry, I will never regret it. We will go back together then."
What's going on? Gu Zheng looked at Zhao Man in surprise, and quickly grabbed Zhao Man who wanted to go back, and said angrily, "What are you thinking? Didn't you hear me? I mean, you heard me clearly?"
Gu Zheng took a deep breath and said, "As long as Xue'er has no objection and is willing to marry you, I have no objection."
"Do you want me to repeat myself?"
Zhao Mansan returned to his seat and said, "I understand, I understand."
The next meal was a feast for both the guests and the host.
Having said that, this guy is actually pretty good, not to mention Cher.
"That Zhao Man, now that we've finished eating, it's time for me to go back. Thank you for your hospitality."
At the end of the day, Gu Zheng was too lazy to continue communicating with Zhao Man. He tried to trick me at every turn. Am I that stupid?
Thinking about it again, Gu Zheng went downstairs.
He accidentally bumped into a figure. Gu Zheng was fine, but the person he hit rolled down.
"Hey, let me go. How dare you bump into me without fear of death?" Yong Yuxin shouted while rubbing his waist.
Yong Yuxin was angry just now. His beloved grandfather ordered him not to cause trouble in the past few days, especially with that boy Zhao Man.
Yong Yuxin, who looked unhappy, had no choice but to come to drink. He was thinking that the girl downstairs was good, but he was knocked down.
Fortunately, I only climbed a few steps, but I couldn't afford to fall this time.
"It's the bad guy again." Although he had only met Gu Zheng for a few days, Yong Yuxin had encountered more unlucky things than in the past year.
"It's this kid again, he deserves it." Gu Zheng laughed and gloated in his heart, but retorted: "What's the matter, you fart like firewood, you have an opinion."
Compared to the relatively pure people at this time, Gu Zheng achieved immediate results with a little firepower.
Yong Yuxin was so angry that his eyes turned red. He was so angry that he didn't care about anything and rushed up on his own, shouting.
"I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you."
Gu Zheng directly kicked him down. This kind of indolence and indifference to grains, regardless of his identity, could beat any ordinary person. He couldn't take care of himself.
Zhao Man happened to come out from upstairs and saw Yong Yuxin struggling and insulting him, and understood something.
"Don't you know who he is?" Zhao Man didn't know that Gu Zheng didn't give him face yesterday, and he was a little surprised.
"I know." Gu Zheng looked unconcerned.
Tsk tsk, Zhao Man looked at Gu Zheng's fearless expression, it seems that this cheap cousin is a bit mysterious.
"Sir, what's wrong?" At this time, Yong Yuxin's men came up with a young and beautiful girl. Seeing this scene, they didn't care about the girl in their hands.
Quickly help your son up.
At this time, Yong Yuxin was still in a daze, and all he wanted to do was kill Gu Zheng, the guy who made himself look embarrassed.
"Hey, why did Mr. Yongda behave like this? It seems that he accidentally made a mistake. Zhao Man decided to take the responsibility himself.
Listening to the familiar voice, Yong Yuxin raised his head, gritted his teeth and looked at the two people in front of him, thinking that the two people were in the same group.
Yong Yuxin wanted to wave his hand like a fairy and destroy them, but unfortunately he couldn't defeat them. The old man's harsh words came to his mind.
Yong Yuxin broke free from the support of his men and walked away without even saying a harsh word.
"There's something evil about this. Normally Yong Yuxin can't defeat you, but it also disgusts you." Zhao Man muttered in his heart.
Without the troublesome guy, Gu Zheng and the others of course continued downstairs.
But when he passed by the girl, Gu Zheng stopped.
Speaking of being ruthless, Gu Zheng would do whatever it takes to face the enemy, but looking at the girl whose delicate little face was covered with tears and crying silently, Gu Zheng could not be ruthless.
The girl was wearing a long white dress, holding an ancient pipa in her hand, standing there pitifully.
After a few inquiries, the girl looked at the warm Gu Zheng in front of her and thought she was about to fall into the clutches of the devil again. She cried and told the truth.
It turns out that this girl suffered an accident in the village and fled to her distant relatives from a remote mountain. Unfortunately, her distant relatives were no longer where they were. She didn't know where they had moved. Fortunately, she still knew some musical instruments.
She was thinking about making some money by performing, so she bought a pipa with all her money. Today, she was spotted by a bad boy on her first day out. She was so timid that she didn't even dare to call for help.
Now she is still timidly looking at Gu Zheng and the others, but at a glance she knows that the person in front of her is either rich or noble, and he is better dressed than the Mr. Wang she has seen. At this time, the girl is waiting for the judgment of her fate.
Gu Zheng thought that if Yong Yuxin came back, this girl would become his scapegoat, and he felt sorry for the girl's life experience. It happened that Xue'er was short of someone to help, so he couldn't help all the time.
