Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty-Three: Madam Mighty
Hao Fenglou got up early in the morning and rinsed his mouth. Then a famous stinger handed over it, saying that Li Chang, the son of the Li family in Songjiang, was visiting him.
The young master of the Li family should be living nearby. Recently, he often walked around the Hao family. When he heard Hao Fenglou coming home, he rushed over.
Hao Fenglou took over the famous sect, but it is better not to see him or not.
After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Please go to the main hall."
There is a difference between the main hall and the small hall. The main hall receives guests, while the small hall receives regular guests. On the surface, it seems to show respect, but in fact it means alienation.
When Hao Fenglou arrived at the main hall, Li Changzai had already arrived. He was so scarves and Confucian clothes that he was so handsome that he was still handsome. When he saw Hao Fenglou, he quickly stood up and said, "Hello Brother Hao Shi, I have been looking forward to meeting Brother Hao Shi since I arrived in Nanjing. However, Brother Shi has been doing everything he can to do every day. Today, I finally have time. This is the presumptuous place, I hope he can forgive me."
He spoke in a gentle manner, quite like a young Shujishi from the Hanlin Academy. He was a little proud and showed a high level of cultivation.
Hao Fenglou invited him to sit down, and Li Chang began to talk loudly after sitting down: "Both families are family friends. They used to walk around frequently, but they moved to Nanjing from the Hao family, and became unfamiliar. Fortunately, I plan to live in the capital and prepare for next year's imperial examination. Ha... I will come to visit more at that time."
Hao Fenglou just said, "That's natural."
Seeing that Hao Fenglou was not very enthusiastic, Li Changzai started to talk, first asking Annan what happened. Hao Fenglou answered indiscriminately. Li Changzai said, "Yes, I'm looking for a house recently. There is a good place in Jiming Temple. I heard that Brother Shi is a disciple of Mr. Yao, and I have always admired Mr. Yao."
This means a bit implying that Hao Fenglou introduced Yao Guangxiao.
Hao Fenglou sneered in his heart. Li Chang said so much, but he didn't mention Xiangxiang, but he always asked about his connections indirectly.
Hao Fenglou pretended to be ignorant and just said, "My teacher wanted to live in the mansion, but he was a little uncomfortable after living there for more than a month. Although he returned to Jiming Temple, he has been staying in the door recently. Alas... I, a disciple, want to pay homage, but it is difficult for me to climb to the sky."
Li Changzai's face was full of disappointment, and he smiled and said, "Mr. Yao is different from others, so it is natural. I have heard of it since I made my teacher indifferent to fame and fortune."
After talking for half an hour, Li Changzai saw that it was almost done, so he stood up and said goodbye. Hao Fenglou did not keep him and sent him out.
As soon as Li Chang left, Hao Fenglou went to ask Hao's mother for advice. Hao's mother was having tea in the small hall. Hao Fenglou approached, but heard Hao's mother's voice. Hao's mother said excitedly: "No, what's the saying, can the decided things be changed? This is for your own good. Why are you so ignorant? What's the use of staying in the mansion? My old man really wants you to serve you for the rest of your life? At most, it's a family member who stays here is a wife. Even if Mr. Li doesn't pass the imperial examination, his family
The family is rich, and you will be served in the future. Xiang'er, you have been with Laoshen for so many years, and Laoshen has always regarded you as a daughter, hoping that you can have a good life. Since Mr. Li loves you, this is also a blessing. We are women, and women can do nothing else if they don't seek an identity for themselves? If you put away your tears, which daughter doesn't want to cry when they get married? The Li family plans to have a big fuss, and all the six gifts are given. Can you still return it?"
When Hao Fenglou heard these words, he felt a little uncomfortable. He pursed his lips and couldn't bear to listen anymore. He couldn't help but folded himself and sat in the pavilion in the back garden with a few depressed mood.
It was already spring, and the back garden was full of spring. Hao Fenglou sat alone in the pavilion. After a long time, he felt even more upset.
But after some time, someone tiptoed to bring the tea and whispered: "Young Master... Master, drink tea."
Hao Fenglou looked back and saw that it was Xiao Xiangxiang. Xiao Xiangxiang seemed a little cramped. The tears had been wiped dry, but her eyes were still a little red. She grew a lot taller, so when she bent down to pour tea, her hair could not help but put on her hair and touched the back of Hao Fenglou's neck. She hurriedly avoided it in panic and said, "Yes... I'm sorry, Master..."
Hao Fenglou stared at her and said, "Why are you sorry? You used to be so embarrassed and didn't say sorry."
Xiao Xiangxiang hesitated: "I...I'm grown up... The lady said... I'm going to look good... It's not like this when I grow up, my body and skin..."
Hao Fenglou sneered at him: "Is my parents responsible for my body, hair and skin?"
"Yes, yes..." Xiao Xiangxiang's pretty face froze.
Hao Fenglou smiled even colder and said, "Nonsense, the original text of this sentence is that the body, hair, skin, and parents dare not harm it. It is the beginning of filial piety. What does this have to do with you now? Could someone ask you to shave your hair? Even so, you should say that men and women are not allowed to get along with each other."
Xiao Xiangxiang lowered her head and tears fell down: "I don't understand, the lady said a lot, and sometimes I didn't listen carefully."
Hao Fenglou sighed and said, "Are you going to get married? Marry that Young Master Li?"
Xiao Xiangxiang bit her lip and said with a hint of grievance: "It was my wife who asked me to marry."
Hao Fenglou's sword eyebrows frowned deeply, and suddenly felt very suffocated in his heart. He stared at Xiao Xiangxiang with concentration and said, "What do you think? Do you want to marry that young master Li?"
"Madam...Madam said..."
However, Hao Fenglou interrupted Xiao Xiangxiang's words at this time, and his voice became a little higher: "Don't say it to your wife, I'll let you say it!"
Xiao Xiangxiang's clear eyes faced Hao Fenglou's eyes, and finally lowered her head and said aggrievedly: "But the lady will not harm me. The lady said that this is the best destination for me. Only when I marry Mr. Li can I be the wife and... The lady's words are always right, how can the lady harm me..."
Hao Fenglou couldn't help but sigh. He suddenly realized that he seemed too excited, so he spoke a little gentler: "Don't cry, actually... hey... you're right, the lady won't harm you."
Xiao Xiangxiang bit her lip, looked at Hao Fenglou, and said, "Young Master, you have lost weight. You have suffered so much fatigue. I guess it's very hard. If you drink tea, drink tea first."
Hao Fenglou had to lower his head to drink tea, but the irritability in his heart was unable to open the Buddha's name. He suddenly said, "Young Master Li, have you seen it before?"
Xiao Xiangxiang nodded and said, "I have seen you."
"What do you think?"
"It's done."
When Hao Fenglou heard this, somehow, he was inexplicably angry and turned his lengthened face aside.
Xiao Xiangxiang said quietly: "But...but...Young Master, you eat tea. This is ginseng tea to nourish your body. The lady specifically told me... " She seemed to have forgotten Hao's mother's teachings and was stagnant for a moment.
At this time, a family member came over and said, "I heard that the young master was back, so Mrs. Lu rushed to the mansion. The old lady asked the young master to see him."
Hao Fenglou had to get up and glanced at Xiao Xiangxiang deeply. He felt like he had a lot of words but couldn't say them. He couldn't help but smile, thinking that he was too stupid. He had a wife, why did he delay being a wife? Madam... It was indeed right.
So he said, "I won't drink this tea, you can drink it." After that, he got up and left.
Xiao Xiangxiang stood alone in the pavilion, Xiang's shoulders swayed slightly. She was stunned for a while when she looked at the tea, and suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but murmured: "Young Master, actually I want to say that compared to the young master, Mr. Li is not even as good as Hao San."
She let out a long sigh, carefully holding up the tea, but didn't know where to go, and she seemed to be out of her mind. Her mind was like a lantern. A wife appeared again, and a young master appeared again. Occasionally, Mr. Li appeared. However, when Mr. Li appeared, her brows frowned slightly.
"Sister Xiang..." When several girls saw Xiangxiang, they were holding tea with a confused look on their faces, but they went to the right wing. Someone stepped forward and said, "Sister Xiangxiang is going to pour tea for the young lady? The young lady has gone to the small hall and is not in the right wing room."
Xiao Xiangxiang had no choice but to say oh, suddenly remembered the young lady, and suddenly became even more panicked, saying in her heart, will the young lady beat me to death?
Seeing that Xiao Xiangxiang's face was pale, some people teased her: "Sister Xiangxiang is going to be a wife, I think she is too happy..."
Xiao Xiangxiang pulled her face, lowered her head, and said, "Madam told me to do things..." and left in a flash.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
These days, Hao Fenglou has a very strange temper, which makes Lu Yan very worried.
She thought Hao Fenglou had some evil in Dali Temple, so she listened to Mrs. Lu's instigation and went to pray to God and Buddha.
It’s just a pity that no matter which temple it is, it is said that it is from the Hao family, and they are all trembling. These people are even more abnormal than Hao Fenglou. How could she know that the evil name of her husband was long known in the world of "Shenxian" or "Shenxian". If she touched the word "Hao", the gods and immortals would make up their minds to pack up their bags and go away like plague gods.
Because Hao Fenglou had just returned home, many people came to visit him, some of whom were really familiar with each other. Hao Fenglou cheered up and drank with them. Some were also because he had been a little bit related to each other. Now that he saw that the Hao family became more prosperous, he came to have some relationships. Hao Fenglou could only barely hold on to these things.
Because as the only male owner in the family, Hao Fenglou has no choice but to avoid it.
Li Changzai came to visit him several times, but he was just getting close to him. During the chat, he couldn't help but mention the marriage next month. Li Changzai seemed not enthusiastic about this, but just said that everything was ready at home and that he could marry him on a good day.
Hao Fenglou felt a deep disgust towards him, so he was perfunctory to him.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month passed. In this month, the debate in the court was inevitable, and Annan's disposal had become the focus of the court at present.
However, during these days in Hao Fenglou, the Jinyiwei had been placing a few times. Most of the time, he stayed at home honestly, and more often, he felt upset.
