Chapter 20

Ling Runyun jumped off the side wall, and as expected, Mr. Chen and Chen Xiaoyu were waiting for him.

At first they thought it was a storm of criticism, but the two of them glanced at Ling Runyun, said something together and came back, and then began to sigh.

Ling Runyun was puzzled and looked at the faces of the two of them.

Needless to say, Mr. Chen is in his 40s, probably because he has read too many books, and his wrinkles are as many as the pages of a book, making him look very old.

Under the state of abnormal expression, his brows were twisted into a pimple, and Mr. Chen, who looked not young at all, was a few years older.Under the contrast of Chen Xiaoyu, her thin body also seemed to be crumbling with the wind.

It doesn't look like my father punished the two of them, and I walked back quickly. As long as the two of them didn't tell the truth, the old man probably didn't know about it.

Ling Runyun didn't care about avoiding being scolded, so he held his husband's arm and asked, "What's wrong, sir? You are frowning, maybe the students can help?"

Before the husband's long sigh stopped, Chen Xiaoyu who was beside him punched the tree trunk next to him with a bang, and the leaves fell off everyone.Chen Xiaoyu began to cry while helping the two of them pick and pull the leaves.

... This is the first time seeing Chen Xiaoyu cry.

The big sister who is eight feet long is humming in front of you, and Ling Runyun's psychological shadow is also about eight feet square.

Mr. Chen finally sighed, "I'm not afraid of my son's jokes. There was a marriage for Xiaoyu before, but that family has been procrastinating and refusing to marry. Just now someone came to report that the boy of that family secretly had an affair with another girl. Forever."

Ling Runyun knew the etiquette, so he was furious when he heard it.

It's a person who is obviously married, but still can't get along with others, what is this.

Ling Runyun said: "Do you need my Ling family's help to come and reason? Let the family divorce the bride who is not in accordance with the etiquette, and marry Miss Xiaoyu... How can you go back on your word with the words of your parents and matchmaker?"

Mr. Chen grabbed Ling Runyun's wrist with tears in his eyes. Unexpectedly, Ling Runyun was only 12 years old. He thought he was a baby who was born in a honey pot and didn't care about other people's affairs. Now he wanted to help himself and his daughter to seek justice.

Chen Xiaoyu punched the big tree again, "No need, although the books I read from my father are fragmentary, but the twisted melons are not sweet! He can't see my goodness, someone will always know me, Chen Xiaoyu Up in the hall, down in the kitchen, husband and son are gentle and pleasant."

Ling Runyun looked at the two indistinct punch holes on the tree trunk with lingering fear, and his heart trembled a few times along with the big tree, "Sister Xiaoyu is so...gentle, there must be someone who knows how good you are."

Mr. Chen was touched, and turned his head to Ling Runyun and said, "You know etiquette, righteousness and shame, so if the family makes a marriage for you in the future, you must not let the girl down.

Although it is still early to tell you about marriage, but since you are smart in reading, I am afraid that you will understand the relationship between men and women earlier than your peers.You have also seen the suffering that your sister Xiaoyu has suffered.In the future, if you marry someone else in your family, you must not tear up the marriage contract and make people laugh. "

Mr. Chen is Ling Runyun's teacher, so it is natural to teach through family affairs.It's just that this teaching also contains the teacher's ardent expectations for the future of Ling Runyun, "As the eldest son, you are educated and reasonable, and you will naturally walk above the court in the future. You can't lose your reputation as a gentleman because of trivial matters."

Ling Runyun suddenly thought of the rumors about him and the three-year-old baby outside, and it was really funny that a bunch of nonsense came out after just shopping together.However, I just jumped off the wall and got caught when I went home. Under the guidance, I had no reason to justify it, and I kept bowing my head and saying yes.

"Students understand that they will not disappoint Mr.

While the three of them were talking, the master of the Ling family strode over from the courtyard path, his feet were windy, his hands were raised higher than usual, and his face was full of joy.

Mr. Chen and Chen Xiaoyu stood aside, listening to the voice of the master of the Ling family announcing the great news.

"Runyun, Uncle Zou, the prefect of Pianjing, do you remember that you will come to visit my Ling family in three days. You should memorize your books at home these few days, and then you will show yourself in front of Uncle Zou and Sister Xinlian."

The Ling family is rich, and the master of the Ling family also made friends with some dignitaries.Since the Ling family made a fortune, it is common to have guests from official families occasionally.But who is this girl Xinlian?
Ling Runyun said, "Uncle Zou has always acted like a thunderbolt, coming and going freely. Why is he taking his family with him this time?" He added, "Our small place is not for sightseeing."

Master Ling was overjoyed, "Of course it's not tourism, but sightseeing... barely counts."

Ling Runyun looked at his courtyard. It must be the only luxury in this city, but compared with the prefect's mansion in Beijing, there is no need for sightseeing.

The master leader patted Ling Runyun on the head. This 12-year-old eldest son has a smooth face and a suave demeanor. Inside and outside the house are all the manners of a modest son. The more he looks at him, the more he likes him.He slightly lowered his voice, "The prefect and the eldest daughter Xinlian are actually here to see you."

Ling Yunrun was startled, and had some bad premonition in his heart, "What are you looking at me for?"

Master Ling said: "Are you really stupid, or are you playing hide-and-seek with your father and me! Look at you, of course my son's reputation as a gentleman spread to Pianjing, and you fell in love with him. Uncle Zou fell in love with him. This time, we will meet in advance. If Xinlian has no other opinions on you, this marriage will be settled. When you are thirteen, our Ling family can make a dowry."

Ling Runyun also understood what his father was going to say, but he was still a little shocked when he heard the betrothal gift.

The Chen family's father and daughter immediately expressed their congratulations as if the matter had already been settled.

Marrying the prefect's daughter was a good start for Ling Yunrun's future career.Although he was younger, he first got the support of the prefect's family to start a family, and then established a career at a high level in the temple. Just thinking about it, Mr. Chen felt that Ling Runyun not only had a golden spoon in his mouth, but also jumped out of a gilded road under his feet, following the students' joy.

Ling Runyun had no yearning for marriage, he just put his hands on his waist inadvertently, there was a piece of jade missing, and it was empty.Ling Runyun listened to the beaming discussion of the three people around him, and the young boy's heart also emptied.

"What if sister Xinlian doesn't like me?"

Master Ling was in a hurry, "How is that possible! My son is handsome and knowledgeable, what girl would look down on him! Don't say such bad words, study hard, and think about how to behave in front of your sister Xinlian."

Ling Runyun said, "Is she younger than me? How old is she? Eight years old? Ten years old? Can you understand good and bad?"

When it comes to age, Master Ling's face is a bit ugly.

"All in all, you can't go anywhere these days. Mr. Chen, Xiaoyu, you watch the young master study carefully. What happened, you are the only ones to ask."

Master Ling came happily and left angrily.

Ling Runyun bowed and bowed, and didn't straighten his waist until Master Ling walked out of the courtyard.

Mr. Chen also knew about the rumors about the three-year-old baby, so he didn't mention it, he just said it.

"The parents' order, the matchmaker's words, the etiquette teachings, the teacher can say more. Whether it is eight years old or ten years old, behind Xinlian is the prefect, and behind the prefect is the official career."

Ling Runyun also bowed to Mr. Chen, "Understood."

After the two left, only Ling Runyun was left in the courtyard.Hearing heavy footsteps, Chen Xiaoyu turned back again.

"Miss Xiaoyu? What's the matter?" Ling Runyun asked aloud.

Chen Xiaoyu held Ling Runyun's hand with a pair of iron fists, and the corners of her mouth bent down a few degrees unconsciously.

"Qiang Niuer's melons are not sweet."

"Miss Xiaoyu will help you."

Ling Runyun was in pain from Chen Xiaoyu's grip, and after a few words, he didn't feel the pain anymore, only the palms and backs of his hands were hot.

"Thanks in advance."
