My Confucian Father

Chapter 30 Proposing marriage to the Su family?
After tidying up Zhuge Bin again, Zhuge Qingfeng's anger finally subsided, but he still had a sullen face and didn't want to speak.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhuge next to him taught Zhuge Bin a lesson: "Your father and I are not saying that you are not allowed to play outside, but we must also focus on studying and passing on family learning."

"Look at Su Mu from the Confucian sage family. He can stay at home and study for sixteen years. Will he go to the brothel like you guys?"

"The other day I went to see him at Confucian Saint's Mansion. He is really young and promising, with great ambitions. If you spend more time with a hero like him, how can your father and I talk about you?"

Hearing this sentence, Zhuge Bin became more confident, and said confidently: "Yesterday, my boy went to the brothel with Brother Mu. Brother Mu said that this is called exploring the unknown and practicing the Confucian sage's way of unity of knowledge and action." !"

"Mother, didn't you ask me to learn from Brother Mu, I just followed suit!"

Mrs. Zhuge and Zhuge Qingfeng were both stunned.

Then Zhuge Qingfeng got up slowly, pulled out the seven wolves around his waist, and said sadly: "It's because my father neglected to discipline you. I didn't expect you to learn to lie now."

"If I don't teach you a good lesson today, I will be a father in vain!"

Zhuge Bin jumped up in fright, and said anxiously: "Father, I really didn't lie to you! It's true!"

Zhuge Qingfeng sneered and said: "Confucian sages have been to brothels, so Su Mu may have really gone to brothels to realize the unity of knowledge and action; but as a father, he has never been to brothels, so why do you go?"

"A rebellious son looks at the fight!"

The loving father had a stick in his hand, and Nizi was whipped.

Zhuge Bin was filled with grief and indignation, he knew that his father was just looking for a reason to beat him up.

What does it matter to me if you haven't been to the brothel?
Obviously it's your mother who won't let you go!

After being beaten three times, Zhuge Bin finally became honest, because if he kept his mouth shut, he would be beaten more severely later.

Although he was used to being beaten, Pi Ke didn't become thicker because of it. Now he grinned his teeth in pain when he moved his buttocks, and he even struggled to walk.

"Father, you are too ruthless. My son will help people set up the spirit gathering formation tomorrow. What should we do now?"

"Why don't you help me arrange it."

Zhuge Bin covered his buttocks and said while taking a breath.

He promised to help Su Mu set up the spirit gathering formation, but now his whole body hurts when he walks, let alone set up the formation.

Arranging formations is a delicate task, which requires steady hands and a careful mind. In his current state, it is obvious that he cannot arrange them.

After playing outside until late at night, he accepted the beating and had no complaints, but he had to do what he promised. Zhuge Bin never had the habit of breaking his promise, so he wanted to ask his father directly to do it.

"roll!"

Zhuge Qingfeng couldn't be bothered to talk to this unworthy son at all, and almost couldn't help but smoke the seven wolves again.

What is his identity?An imposing Mohist giant, Minister of the Ministry of Industry!Condescending to help others set up a mere spirit gathering array?
What a joke!
Even if it is a colleague of the same level or even a minister with a higher position than him, it depends on his mood if he wants to ask him to take action.

Because he is the most skilled craftsman in the entire Great Yan Dynasty, and even in the entire world!
Throwing the teacup heavily on the table, Zhuge Qingfeng left the lobby with a sullen face, and began to reflect in his heart how he could have given birth to such a rebellious son.

Mrs. Zhuge stepped forward to help Zhuge Bin up, and scolded: "From now on, don't hang out with your gang of cronies, they are only close to you because of your father's identity."

"Let your father, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, help others to set up the spirit gathering array, will you be beaten stupid, kid?"

Mrs. Zhuge was all worried and worried.

My daughter is withdrawn by nature, and my son is innocent and unscheming, what should I do in the future?

I really envy Xu's rough woman, who gave birth to such a beautiful and intelligent son, who is a hundred times better than his own stupid son.

"But mother, Brother Mu asked me to help."

Zhuge Bin sighed with a sad face.

I wanted to take this opportunity to show it well in front of Su Mu, who knew that I would encounter such a situation now.

Zhuge Qingfeng had just walked out of the lobby, but he stopped suddenly after hearing these words, and turned around to look in surprise.

"The person who asked you to set up the spirit gathering array is Su Mu?"

He never thought that the person who asked Zhuge Bin to help would be Su Mu.

"Yes, he said that he wanted to set up a spirit-gathering formation in his residence to speed up his cultivation. The boy has already promised him, so you can't break your promise now, right?"

Zhuge Bin told his father everything frankly.

Zhuge Qingfeng only pondered for a moment after listening, then raised his head and said: "Understood, I will arrange the matter of the spirit gathering array."

After he finished speaking, he paused, and added with a calm face: "I did this for my father to protect the reputation of my Zhuge family outside, and it is absolutely not for a gentleman to break his promise."

"You did a good job this time. It will be good for you and not bad for you to have more contacts with Su Mu in the future."

Zhuge Qingfeng gave his son a meaningful look, then turned and left the lobby, leaving only Zhuge Bin in a daze.

He was just trying to say this just now, and he didn't have much hope. You must know that the spirit-gathering array is the most basic formation for the Mohist disciples to learn, and any Mohist disciple will be able to arrange it.

But who knew that as soon as Su Mu's name was mentioned, his father's attitude immediately changed drastically.

From the original disdain directly to the full promise.

After reacting, Zhuge Bin couldn't help admiring: "As expected of my brother Mu, even my father has to give face if he has a face."

He knew that his father had always had a bad temper, and when others came to ask him to forge magic weapons, he would always ignore them, no matter what his status was.

But when it came to Su Mu's side, it was completely different. Instead, they rushed up and just set up the spirit gathering array.

"Don't be silly, go to bed and get some medicine."

Mrs. Zhuge glared at Zhuge Bin, and patted his buttocks gently, making him gasp in pain.

After ordering the servants in the house to carry Zhuge Bin away, Mrs. Zhuge left the hall and went to the study,
Seeing Zhuge Qingfeng standing in front of the window of the study, Mrs. Zhuge stepped forward and asked, "Husband, do you really want to go to the Su Manor to set up the spirit gathering array yourself?"

"No matter how you say it, you can be regarded as his elder. Isn't it a bit disrespectful to do such a thing?"

Although Su Mu is said to be the son of a Confucian sage with extraordinary status, Zhuge Qingfeng is the Minister of the Ministry of Industry and a giant of the Momen, and he is also an old acquaintance with the Confucian sage, so his age and seniority are there.

Now personally going to the door to set up a mere spirit gathering array is like a master of the first rank chasing down street thieves.

Not a class at all.

"There is no status or status. No matter how high my status is, can I be higher than a Confucian saint?"

Zhuge Qingfeng shook his head slightly, a trace of self-mockery appeared on his dull face, and then he said, "That kid Tao An can't do other things well, but being able to bring Bin'er to play with Su Mu makes me look a little different."

"Since you have this kind of relationship, you should maintain it well. If you want to lose face, it's all falsehood."

He was willing to personally go to the door to set up a mere spirit gathering formation, just to pave the way for Zhuge Bin.

The formation is not important, the important thing is that he goes in person.

"Bin'er has a simple mind and mediocre talent. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to inherit my mantle in the future; so it's better for him to have a good relationship with the Tao family boy and the Su family boy. At least he won't be bullied in the future."

"If I hadn't seen that kid from the Tao family really treat Bin'er as a friend, do you think I would have turned a blind eye to him going out to play?"

Zhuge Qingfeng smiled, if he really wanted to be strict, he wouldn't let Zhuge Bin and Tao An get in touch at all.

The main reason is that if he doesn't care at all, he is worried that his son will really become a dude, so his superficial attitude is very strict.

Now that Zhuge Bin got acquainted with Su Mu, he can relax depending on the situation and be less strict.

Mrs. Zhuge understood what her husband meant, and then asked: "As for Yanran, what do you think about his marriage with the Su family's son?"

She has been thinking about this matter for the past few days.

My daughter is the same age as Su Mu, and their Zhuge family background is not bad, and the two families can be considered well-matched.

She also met Su Mu that day, he was indeed a pretty good young man, she was quite satisfied.

But I still have to ask Zhuge Qingfeng for his opinion.

"This matter is not urgent. When I go to the Su Manor tomorrow, I can get in touch with the Su family."

"If it's as good as you said, you can consider proposing marriage and get engaged first."

"Tomorrow, I will also go with Yanran."

Zhuge Qingfeng said that he is not sloppy about the major events of his daughter's life, and he doesn't just look at the background of the other party.

During this period of time, he heard a lot of rumors about Su Mu, but he still wanted to go and have a look in person.

"Okay, the husband has the final say."

Mrs. Zhuge smiled gently, and went forward to help Zhuge Qingfeng straighten his collar, and smoothed it carefully.

Looking at the beautiful and charming wife in front of him, Zhuge Qingfeng suddenly asked: "You didn't marry Su Changqing, but married me. Would you regret it?"

At that time, the Confucian saint Su Changqing was the most romantic person in the world, the dream lover of countless women, and the wife in front of him was the most beautiful in Shengjing, and she also favored Su Changqing.

But in the end, she married him, who was still a small official of the Ministry of Industry at that time, and his appearance was also ordinary. I don't know how many people were shocked.

"Ask this question, is your waist no longer hurting?"

Mrs. Zhuge said with a smile, which made Zhuge Qingfeng slightly embarrassed, and did not dare to look at her eyes.

I can't stand it, I really can't stand it.

After joking around, Mrs. Zhuge stretched out her hand and turned Zhuge Qingfeng's face to look at herself, her eyes were full of tenderness: "I have never regretted marrying you."

"Su Changqing has his flair, but it doesn't belong to me; although you are honest and stupid, you are mine."

Zhuge Qingfeng was silent for a long time after listening, his eyes were slightly red.

Mrs. Zhuge hugged him tenderly, and the two stood quietly like this, gentle and beautiful.

But at this moment, Zhuge Bin pushed away the people in the study, limped in, and said loudly, "Father, tomorrow you..."

I saw the parents embracing each other in the study.

Zhuge Bin's voice stopped abruptly.

The whole study fell into silence.

"Hi, excuse me, father and mother, please continue, continue..."

As he said that, he was about to turn around and leave, but a hand suddenly reached out and grabbed his shoulder.

Zhuge Bin's face turned pale, and he turned his head to see that his father was looking at him with a half-smile.

"It's all here, what are you doing so fast?"

Zhuge Qingfeng smiled and untied the seven wolves around his waist, while Mrs. Zhuge closed the door cooperatively.

"As a father today, I will let you know what etiquette is!"

Zhuge Bin's screams were soon heard in the study.
