144 I'm not going to get married

"Dad, there is no daughter. I just feel happy when I see my father. This article is first published by...." Zhao Min's face turned red and she said with a twist.

Zhao Yuqing teased his daughter intently and said in surprise: "Oh, my daughter even dressed up to greet her father, right?"

"Dad, don't your daughter always say that her daughter is not dignified enough? Isn't my daughter afraid of you to blame?" After pausing, Zhao Min suddenly said curiously: "Dad, you sighed just now, what's wrong? Isn't this trip going well? What about those horses?"

"The horses are all placed in the stables of our tribe and come back. My father sighed that our Zhao clan has worked hard for several months this time, and it can be said that he has even lost his capital."

"What?" Zhao Min said in surprise: "Dad, although tea is cheap and horses are expensive, but Xifan tea is rare and the Ming Dynasty is expensive, so you will never pay any compensation. Wait, let's count the days, you have only been out for more than two months, and no matter how fast you go, you probably haven't arrived in Lhasa yet. Could it be that something happened on the road, right?"

The Zhao family has experience in tea and horse trading. Besides, Zhao Min is also proficient in Nine Chapters arithmetic. After a little calculation, even if some of them are inappropriate, it will be too early to come back.

His daughter is so smart. Zhao Yuqing couldn't help but say proudly, but he felt a little disappointed. If his daughter was a son, he would be even happier. It was all because he was unscrupulous when he was young and was nostalgic for the fireworks and willow all day long. He was powerless at the back and had a daughter who was blessed by God. Fortunately, his son-in-law was half a child. As long as his daughter married well, he was still very satisfied.

Seeing his daughter's anxious look, Zhao Yuqing smiled and said, "The county magistrate Lu is indeed capable. With him, the profit has increased at least twice. However, for the sake of his daughter's lifelong affairs, he knew that the county magistrate Lu knew a lot of nobles, so he gave him all the profits, just as a reward for introducing my daughter to my daughter."

"What did he say?" Zhao Min asked hurriedly.

"I agreed. I said I would definitely find a good husband for my Min'er."

When Zhao Min heard this, her face was filled with disappointment. Her heart hurt and bit her lip and almost wanted to cry: introduce herself to others, where does he put himself? Doesn’t he know his intentions? Or maybe he feels that he is too low-class and is not worthy of him?

After thinking about it, Zhao Min still lowered her voice and said, "Dad, my daughter won't marry. My daughter is just guarding her at home and never goes anywhere."

It was too much. Seeing that his baby daughter made me almost cry, Zhao Yuqing felt unbearable and was about to tell the truth when suddenly a servant came forward to report: "Master, the county magistrate asked for a meeting."

So fast?

Zhao Yuqing raised his eyebrows, vaguely guessing what was going on, and he didn't care about his physical fatigue. He immediately said happily: "Please, please, please."

The county government office is closer than Zhaojiazhuang. Although Lu Haoshan held a meeting, Zhao Yuqing had to place the horse before going home. Those hundreds of horses could not be kept at home. When the horses and personnel were placed one by one, Zhang Yunhui, who was eager to make contributions, had arrived soon. It was a coincidence.

"The county magistrate is here. Zhao is in a hurry to welcome him, so I will forgive him for his crimes." As soon as he saw Zhang Yunhui, Zhao Yuqing said enthusiastically.

Zhang Yunhui did not look as if he had pretended to be deep in the past. He said kindly: "With our friendship, if these common etiquettes are exempted, why are you still polite?"

When Zhao Yuqing saw Zhang Yunhui smiling like a cooked dog head, he immediately confirmed that he was a lobbyist. The person in his heart became fast. When he had something to ask him for help, why didn’t he see him submitting love or something? He was just less filial and had a long face. Now, when he saw that he was about to be the father-in-law of the county magistrate, his face immediately changed.

Not bad. It seems much more serious to find someone with status to match the matchmaker than a matchmaker. This is why people with status do this.

"That's right, that's right, the county magistrate, please speak here."

"please"

As soon as Zhao Yuqing returned to the lobby, he found that his daughter had disappeared. He knew that she had avoided it, and smiled slightly, and didn't care. He asked Zhang Yunhui to sit down, and ordered someone to serve incense tea and pastries. After the guests had drunk tea and used pastries, he asked: "I don't know what advice do you have for me to visit the humble house this time?"

Zhang Yunhui smiled and said, "Congratulations to Chief Zhao, and congratulations to Chief Zhao. I have good news to tell Chief Zhao this time."

"Oh, where does this joy come from?" Zhao Yuqing's heart was as clear as a mirror, but he still asked knowingly.

Zhang Yunhui did not doubt that he was there. He thought that Zhao Yuqing didn't know about this, and said with a smile: "I will not hide it from Chief Zhao, I am the one who is the Yue Lao this time."

"Old Yue? I don't know who has such a big face, but I can actually call the county magistrate to be the throne."

"Of course, Lord Lu, the county magistrate of Jiangyou County, is the only one who is right. Lord Lu falls in love with Ling Ai at first sight and wants to form a Qin-Jin alliance. He specially entrusts Zhang to be a month old. The county magistrate is a seventh-rank county magistrate at a young age. He is talented and elegant, and has an unlimited future. Ling Ai is gentle and virtuous, beautiful on the outside and wise on the inside. He is a rare good woman. The two can be said to be a pair made by heaven and a pair of ground. I wonder what the old patriarch Zhao wants?"

After mentioning it, Zhao Yuqing was very happy, but he still suppressed his excitement and pretended to be surprised and said, "Mr. County Magistrate, you won't be joking, the county Magistrate will take a fancy to my Min'er. This is unlikely."

"You can eat things randomly, but you can't talk nonsense." Zhang Yunhui said seriously: "No matter how ignorant Zhang is, he will not make fun of lifelong affairs. Please rest assured that the matter is absolutely true. The county magistrate told me personally."

Zhao Yuqing said with some embarrassment: "The county magistrate is the seventh rank. Our Zhao clan has no fame and fortune, so he is afraid that he cannot afford to climb."

If Zhao Yuqing had agreed on it on weekdays, so as not to have too many dreams. However, this time he had known the answer, so he was not in a hurry for a while. He deliberately delayed it, and showed his character, and the secondly, he agreed too quickly, which made his daughter look less expensive.

What, still refuse?

Zhang Yunhui thought Zhao Yuqing would respond quickly, but in fact, he would agree immediately if he had changed to himself, and agreed without hesitation. Unexpectedly, the guy in front of him wanted to refuse. This old guy was stupid, right? Zhang Yunhui wanted to ask him if his brain was still normal.

"Some things are so wonderful. In fact, many discerning people can see that Lord Lu and Miss Zhao are in love. As the saying goes, it is better to demolish a temple than to marry a family, and want to ask the Zhao clan to fulfill it." Although Zhang Yunhui was a little unhappy about the loyal people, he thought that he would definitely succeed when he patted his chest and said that he would succeed.

Seeing that Zhao Yuqing was still thinking, Zhang Yunhui advised on the side: "Captain Zhao, it's not Zhang that Lord Lu's character, talent, and appearance are the best choices. Jiangyou County wants to betroth his daughter to us. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. Zhang has a cousin of fifteen years old, who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, has a gentle temperament, and is handsome and dignified appearance. If the adults said that as long as Miss Zhao, I would soon conquer this marriage, to be honest, I am jealous of you and have a good daughter."

"Although the parents take charge of the marriage, my elders will discuss this matter with their daughter."

Zhang Yunhui said seriously: "If it were me, I would definitely have agreed to this marriage as soon as possible. If you think, the dignified county magistrate was rejected and his face was not good-looking. After passing this village, there would be no store."

"Cough cough" Just when Zhao Yuqing was trying to say something, suddenly two crisp dry coughs sounded behind the screen, and then there were light and eager steps running outward. It was obvious that there was someone behind the screen.

Rich families are not like small families, with only one door. In order to serve tea and food, there is also a side door. For the sake of elegant appearance, they will cover it with exquisite carved screens. Zhao Min is standing behind the screen. When he heard his father say that Lu Haoshan was going to introduce him to a partner, he felt cold and his mood suddenly fell into the deep valley. When he heard Zhang Yunhui's sudden visit, she wanted to hear what the two of them said, so she hid behind her. Unexpectedly, she was proposing marriage.

The moment he heard the marriage proposal, his heart filled with sweetness for a moment, and he felt like he was lost and regained. Zhao Min felt like he was dreaming, and his little heart ran pounding like a deer hit, and his little face turned red due to excitement. This was a bit like Lu Haoshan's style. He was playing tricks on that day and asked to introduce the woman to him. As a result, the conditions seemed to be tailor-made for himself. Now, I have introduced the partner and introduced myself.

This bad guy...

At first, I was very excited, but for some reason, my father said, but he was reluctant to agree. Zhao Min was so anxious that she was sweating in her palms. She cursed her father in her heart. She especially heard Zhang Yunhui say that she refused and looked bad. When she passed by this village, she would be even more anxious. She was no longer reserved and coughed dryly behind the screen, hinting that my father responded. Zhao Min was a woman who dared to say and love. Before she had established a relationship, she went to the county government to find Lu Haoshan alone. Now that she was related to her lifelong affairs, she could no longer remain silent.

However, after the dry cough, I felt very embarrassed. After all, it was a woman who was so anxious to marry, and there were outsiders here, so I ran away quickly.

I don’t know where my daughter was. When Zhao Yuqing heard the second dry cough, he heard that it was his daughter. He couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Well, the noble image he had worked hard to create suddenly disappeared. It’s really a girl who is too old to stay. I guess she told her daughter at the beginning. Maybe the girl thought she didn’t agree with this marriage?

The girl is outgoing and has a sweetheart, so her father is also thrown aside.

Can you disagree? I don’t know how much the price my father spent behind him, but the income from this trip was at least a few thousand taels.

"Captain Zhao, this is..."

Zhao Yuqing said with an embarrassment: "The maid at home is not trained, which makes the county magistrate laugh."

The old man and the old ghost, the old ghost, no maid dares to be so arrogant. Looking at Zhao Yuying's face, Zhang Yunhui couldn't guess anything, but he didn't point it out, just asked with a smile: "Then this marriage..."
