Daming: From the end of Hongwu

Chapter 97
Er Xian's impression of Zhang Wu is not bad, but it's not very good either. She looks forward to marrying in fear. This emotion comes from her age, or from the perception of her in this world.

Now that Zhen Wu was relieved, she didn't dislike Zhang Wu, so she was naturally happy.

In the nave.

Erxian and Zhang Wu were sitting a few steps away, but both of them were silent for the first time, flustered, and Zhang Wu was even more anxious.

He just watched Erxian sitting there quietly, which made his whole mind go blank.

After a long time, it was Er Xian who asked first: "I don't know how many people are in your family?"

Zhang Wu's conditioned reflex was average, and he immediately replied: "Three people, my family is small, only my parents and me."

Erxian nodded and said, "I remember your home is in Xiaolingzhuang."

Zhang Wu suddenly hesitated and didn't know how to answer. He was a little ashamed for this, so that he lowered his head in shame, leaving only a deep muffled hum.

The Erxian thought for a while, but smiled: "It's not far from the city. I remember going to Xiaoling Village with my father when I was young. At that time, I took my elder brother and I to pick mulberries in the nearby forest, oh Speaking of which, I would also like to thank you for the mulberries you sent earlier."

Zhang Wu didn't expect Erxian not only didn't feel displeased about it, but also showed his face and smiled, and talked to him about the interesting things in his childhood, and he was immediately elated, saying: "I know you like to eat, from now on I will pick a lot of them every year. Many, let you eat the fruit for the season."

The Er Xian laughed and said coquettishly: "Who eats it like this, but I loved it when I was a child. Speaking of it, it's just a taste now."

"I don't know what else to give you."

Zhang Wu's mood fell down again, with a frowning face, but the next moment he revived his fighting spirit and said: "But don't worry, no matter how hard or tired, I will definitely not let you follow me to be wronged. Don’t like it because my family’s current conditions are not good.”

Erxian rolled his eyes, and then gave Zhang Wu an angry look: "Am I so distasteful about the poor and love the rich? Speaking of which, if my family doesn't have my eldest brother, it can't compare to your family."

Speaking of this, Er Xian smiled bitterly and said: "You don't know, in the days after my father passed away last year, my family couldn't even eat enough."

"Ok?"

Zhang Wu didn't know about these past events. Ever since he met Zhen Wu, he had never seen Zhen Wu worry about money. Not only that, when interacting with friends in the army, although they were not high-profile, they never showed timidity, and even often deliberately Let the people in the army take advantage of him.

The two sages started talking, and the memory flashed in their eyes and said: "Actually, at that time, I was so worried that I couldn't sleep every day, and I wanted to find some errands with my mother every day, but my elder brother knew how to move a stool and sit Basking in the sun at the gate of the old house, I don't know what he is thinking, and he doesn't talk to others. I still blamed my elder brother in my heart for this, but he just sat there for a month, turned around and worried my mother and me. The difficult problem was solved, and that day I knew that my elder brother had a plan in his mind."

Speaking of this, Erxian smiled embarrassedly and asked Zhang Wudao: "I... If I let you and my elder brother learn more, will you be unhappy?"

Zhang Wu's head immediately turned into a rattle.

He also smiled wryly and said: "You only know about family affairs, but you don't know that your elder brother often does admirable things in the army. Not to mention anything else, just say that when your elder brother first entered the barracks, he was not my opponent. How long has passed, and now I dare not fight against him."

"You still want to fight with my elder brother?"

"No, no, you misunderstood. I and your elder brother are good friends, and he is my boss. How could we fight with him? From now on, I will treat him as my brother-in-law..." As he spoke, Zhang Wu realized that something was wrong. After that, the girl in front of me hasn't agreed yet.

The two sages looked at Zhang Wu with bright eyes, not annoyed, but rather happy.

Zhang Wu is not stupid, seeing this scene, he immediately climbed up the pole.

"Don't worry, I will definitely get along well with your elder brother. Even if there is any dispute, I will leave it up to him. In the future, I will work hard, make more contributions, and receive more salary. I will never make you suffer."

Erxian smiled, like clear water in summer.

"I'm not worried about suffering. As long as you are willing to make progress, I'm not lazy, and I will never be poor." As he spoke, Er Xian's voice became smaller and smaller, but when he spoke smoothly, it seemed as if he was ashamed in his heart. He was also suppressed, and said boldly again.

"And there is my elder brother. I... my elder brother told me that if I am not happy in the future, I can find him. I know he has a way to make money, and he will definitely help me."

Having said that, Erxian showed pride.

……

In the middle hall, the voices of the two were still rustling, but at this moment Zhen Wu frowned, and couldn't help but gasped several times.

Mom sells batches.

Is this called big brother?

And did Erxian misunderstand helping her? Who meant that?This is really an excellent brain melon for making money.

But the next moment, Zhen Wu sighed again.

My own girl.

I am afraid that my head is full of one thing.

Even if he knew that Zhen Wu would help her, he only wanted to let Zhen Wu help them to make their life better, instead of giving her multiple choices and making her life better alone.

As the sun set slowly towards the west, Zhen Wu interrupted the two of them, and after dismissing Zhang Wu several times, the two sages were too ashamed to face Zhen Wu, and hid back in the room, refusing to come out.

Zhen Wu turned to Zhang Yuqing and had a good chat about it.

Zhang Yuqing didn't refute Zhen Wu's decision, but after Zhen Wu left, he turned around and called Er Xian over, and the mother and daughter talked for a long time.

On the second day, the matchmaker hired by Zhang Wu's family came to the door.

This time the chat went much faster, without any surprises. After the bride price regulations were negotiated, the next step was to discuss and set a time.

Both Zhen Wu and Zhang Yuqing didn't want it to be too early. To be honest, the family would be inseparable from the two sages for a while. There must be a time to adapt, so it was set in March.

In the evening, when Zhen Wu and Zhang Yuqing were discussing dowry items.

Zhen Wu thought for a while and said, "Let's add our old house. Erxian has never lived in Zhuangzi since he was a child. The two environments are always very different. Let Erxian stay in the city. Well, Zhang Wu's family can live here with a small population, and with his current monthly rations, he can also support his family by renting out the military farmland to others."

Zhang Yuqing exclaimed: "How did this happen? This belongs to you and the third child."

"I'll give him the third child's future, you don't have to worry."

Zhang Yuqing was still a little reluctant: "Even if you give it to the third child, there are still a few younger ones left. When the second child gets married, you will give the house, and the fourth child, the fifth child, and the sixth child."

Zhen Wu sighed and said: "There will only be more and more in the future, just this, I'm afraid that the two sages will complain that I don't pay much for being the eldest brother."

"You just miss them all, why don't you miss you." Zhang Yuqing felt angry on Zhen Wu's behalf.

But no matter how unwilling Zhang Yuqing was, he finally agreed under Zhen Wu's persuasion, and then Zhen Wu found some time to chat with Zhang Wu about this matter.

The old house still needs to be repaired, Zhen Wu asked Zhang Wu's family to take advantage of this time to repair it, and decided to stay in the old house directly when they get married, which is also convenient, and the house deed will be sent along with the dowry when the time comes.

Zhang Wu had no objection, he was thinking of borrowing some money to buy a house in the city, and now he would be happy to have an escort, but he felt a little embarrassed.

Zhen Wu patted him on the shoulder, didn't say much, just said: "It's better to treat the two sages in the future."
