Chapter 610: So is he a step too late?

Chapter 610 So he came a step too late?

The housekeeper came in and saluted respectfully: "Sir, Zheng Tianhao, the new top scholar outside, would like to see you."

"What's he doing here? I have no contact with him!" Master Lao Luo was a little confused. He had never given him any advice. He won the top prize, so he didn't need to come to thank him!

The housekeeper couldn't say what he said: "He came here to ask for a hand in marriage."

"Asking for marriage? Who are you asking for?" Master Lao Luo was a little confused. Although he had daughters of the same age, he hadn't asked them yet. How could he find them by himself?
"It's Miss Wenjuan."

"Wenjuan? When did they meet?" Master Lao Luo was completely confused now. In his impression, Wenjuan was the most well-behaved child. Just now, he was actually hesitating whether to propose a proposal to Goldman Sachs. For a moment, he felt that Wenjuan and Goldman Sachs were a good match.

It's just that Goldman Sachs seems to be focused on studying, so he can't bother him with these trivial matters, making it seem like his daughter can't get married.

"Dad, you are here to ask the butler, why don't we go out and ask Zheng Tianhao what's going on." Luo Tiancheng said and stood up. Since this Zheng can't get over it, he must marry this lively person.

Master Lao Luo nodded. No matter whether he succeeds or not, the new champion is considered his disciple and he must go to see him.

Zheng Tianhao was sitting in the hall, calmly drinking the tea brought by the maid. He knew that Luo Wenjuan would definitely choose him this time. After all, he now has a reputation and has been investigated. Goldman Sachs didn't even take part in the imperial examination, how could such a man compare with himself.

"Mr. Zheng, my master is here." The butler led the way. Lord Luo, Luo Tiancheng, and Goldman Sachs all came at the same time. Of course, Goldman wanted to leave, but was dragged over by Luo Tiancheng.

"Why are you here?" Zheng Tianhao never dreamed that he would see Goldman Sachs at Luo's house, so was he a step too late?

Goldman Sachs naturally understood the meaning in his eyes, thinking that he might serve as an official in the same court in the future. If Goldman Sachs' previous attitude was followed, he would definitely not be willing to explain. But now that he has experienced vague things, he feels that she should open her mouth. .

"I came here to ask Mr. Luo to help me read the article." The implication is that I am not interested in Luo Wenjuan.

Master Lao Luo looked at Zheng Tianhao and then at Goldman Sachs. Have these two people known each other before?

"Master Luo, if the student still has something to do, he will go back and come to visit another day." Goldman Sachs said and bowed, then turned and left. He should not have seen this bustle in the first place.

Master Lao Luo didn't stop him. After all, this matter was a private matter in the family, and it was really inappropriate for Goldman Sachs to be an outsider.

"Sit down!" A guest came in. Although Mr. Luo didn't understand the process yet, he still had to be polite.

Zheng Tianhao nodded and sat down. The certainty he felt just now was indeed gone at this moment, replaced by nervousness.

Luo Tiancheng looked on and couldn't help but shook his head. With such courage, he still wanted to go to Luo Wenjuan?I really don’t know how high the sky is and how high it is.

"I heard from the housekeeper that you want to marry Wenjuan and come here to propose marriage?"

After hearing this, Zheng Tianhao hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Yes, the student wants to marry Miss Wenjuan, please give me your permission."

"Have you met Wenjuan?"

"Yes, we have met several times." Zheng Tianhao did not dare to tell the truth to Lord Luo. He was afraid that as a father, he would think that he was too much for Meng Lang.

Master Lao Luo lowered his head to drink tea, thinking about it in his mind. He thought for a while: "Go and ask Miss Wenjuan to come out."

"Yes." The housekeeper hurriedly walked to the backyard.

Luo Wenjuan had just returned to the house at this time. She was weak and weak. The maid hurriedly helped her sit down: "Miss, what's wrong?"

Luo Wenjuan glanced at the maid. She didn't have the nerve to say anything. She just said angrily: "Don't ask, but someone came to see me?" "No."

"Then what is Goldman Sachs doing? Has the investigation been clear?" This is what Luo Wenjuan is more concerned about.

The maid nodded: "The eldest son invited him to come over and read the article."

"sure?"

"Yes."

Luo Wenjuan breathed a sigh of relief. She thought for a while: "When you have time, go out and buy some red flowers and come back. Be careful not to be seen."

The maid hesitated for a moment, then just nodded and said yes. At this time, the housekeeper came over and asked Luo Wenjuan to go to the front hall.

Luo Wenjuan's heart tightened and she said with a smile: "Do you know why dad came to see me?"

"It's the newly crowned scholar who has come here to ask for the young lady's hand. I dare to guess that I probably want to ask about the meaning of connection!" the housekeeper said with a smile.

"The new champion? Who is that?"

"Miss, you don't know yet? It's Mr. Zheng." The housekeeper smiled.

Luo Wenjuan couldn't laugh anymore. Everything today seemed to be against her. Mr. Zhao, who originally thought he would gain fame, lost his name, but he took advantage of him again. She also told herself that he wanted to buy an official position to do it. , now that the management is so strict, all he can buy is a small official. Do you want to make him suffer even more?

"Miss?" The housekeeper looked at Luo Wenjuan standing there motionless and reminded her.

Luo Wenjuan came to her senses and said, "I'll change my clothes and I'll be there soon."

"Okay, I'm waiting outside." The housekeeper said and left. The maid helped Luo Wenjuan change her clothes. Luo Wenjuan looked at her and said, "Go buy me red flowers. Go now, secretly. "

The maid nodded and walked out of the back door. She originally wanted to go to the drug store she always went to, but who knew someone covered her mouth halfway. God knows how desperate she was.

When the person covering her mouth released his hand, she said tremblingly: "If you want money, I can give it to you."

"Little girl, I don't want money, I want you to do a favor." The voice was very familiar, and the maid looked up and saw that it was Mr. Zhao.

"Do you still remember me?"

"Zhao... Mr. Zhao." The maid was a little confused as to why Mr. Zhao was looking for her.

Mr. Zhao smiled and took out a piece of silver from his arms: "I asked you to do a small favor. I don't think you will refuse to agree!"

The maid didn't say anything, and Mr. Zhao was not in a hurry: "Your lady asked you to buy red flowers?"

The maid still didn't speak. Mr. Zhao raised her chin with a fan and said, "Promise me to use the cheapest safflower, the kind that has no effect. This ingot of silver will be yours. If you don't agree, I can give you mine." The boys will arrange it for you."

Looking at the two people behind Mr. Zhao, the maid agreed after only a brief hesitation. She looked at Mr. Zhao and said, "It is my blessing to work for Mr. Zhao, but Mr. Zhao cannot betray me in the future."

"That's natural." Mr. Zhao smiled, he liked talking to smart people.

Watching the maid leave, the young man was a little worried: "Master, can she trust you?"
