Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 320 Forced Marriage

Su Mu didn't know how much wine and conversations he had with Hu Ying. When they parted happily and returned home, Su Mu was still very drunk.

His nerves were extremely tense a while ago, but now he suddenly relaxed, so naturally he couldn't hold on.What's more, just got a real power official position, when people are in good spirits on happy occasions, they walk in the door humming a song.

Life, it seems that it is only at this moment that I feel some taste.

Seeing my master return home drunk, the house is naturally in a mess, and they come to help and call others.

Su Mu didn't notice the panic on everyone's face.

After being supported by others, Xiaodie came out and hurriedly took Su Mu from her family.

It was a cold day, Xiaodie probably waited in the room for a while, her little hands were freezing cold, she accidentally touched Su Mu's wrist.

Su Mu was shocked, and said with a smile: "Why is it ice here, have you eaten New Year's dinner?"

As soon as the words were spoken, Su Mu's wine became a little sober, and he suddenly felt a little uneasy.

When he went out at noon, he had promised Xiaodie that he would go home to accompany her and Wu's father and daughter to reunite, but he didn't want this delay, it was already midnight.

With Xiaodie's fiery temper, she doesn't know how to complain about him.

But I didn't want to, Xiaodie was not angry, but worried: "Master, why did you drink like this? This time, it's a little troublesome. Originally, we have already prepared dinner and waited for you to go home. But wait and see If we can’t wait for anyone, we’ll be disappointed. We’re okay, Sister Wu seems to be in a bad mood, she doesn’t even eat, she just presumes that she’s not feeling well, and went back to sleep.”

"Didn't eat?" Su Mu felt a little guilty for no reason.

Xiao Die sighed: "In the evening, that wild girl from the Hu family came to look for the master. This person is really... This Hu family doesn't have any tutors. A girl from a big girl's family actually came to someone else's house."

"Ah, Hu Ying has been here, is it all right?" Su Mu sweated.

Xiaodie: "Master, if you drink like this, you must have met Miss Hu. It's at the bridge in front. Xiaodie saw it. Why did you ask me?"

Su Mu became embarrassed and couldn't speak anymore.

However, he was still surprised, if this matter was normal, Xiaodie would have exploded a long time ago, why couldn't help but sigh today.

Xiaodie: "Miss Wu has already gone to bed, but Master Wu lost his temper and said that it was Master, you went to talk to him as soon as you got home. Now, you are waiting for Master in the main room."

Speaking of this, she whispered: "Master, you are drunk after drinking. When you see Master Wu later, you are not allowed to get angry with him. You also know his temper."

"He's waiting for me." Su Mu came to his senses this time, this old Wu is clearly asking for a crime!

His head suddenly ached.

When he entered the main room, he saw the old man sitting there, holding a copper stove in his hand, dressed so thickly that he even wrapped his face in a cotton cloth, only showing a pair of tired eyes.

Because of this, Su Mu couldn't see his expression, so he walked in and sat comfortably on the chair, and said with a smile: "I have something to stay over today, but I came back late. Mr. Wu, why don't you go to bed? It's cold enough."

Wu Juren said slowly: "When a young man was young, he was free and unrestrained in poetry and wine, which is also the refined style of the scholars of my generation. It is a true temperament, and it is not a big deal. However, the sage once said: When you are in love, you end up with etiquette. Easy. It depends on how you deal with the relationship between the two. A man is a man, he can do something and not do something. You don’t stick to small details, but you can’t be ambiguous about big things.”

Su Mu was a little surprised, in his mind, Lao Juren was a very pedantic person, why did he change his sex today.Judging from what he said, it seemed that he was talking about the private meeting between himself and Hu Ying, right?

The old man continued: "Su Mu, do you remember what I said when I saw you off when you went to Tongzhou to take part in the provincial examination?"

Su Mu was startled, and immediately understood that Lao Juren wanted to force a marriage.

It seems that after Wu Juren found out that I, Su Mu, and Hu Ying were dating outside, he felt a sense of urgency, so he brought up the old story again.

Su Mu: "I still remember."

"It's good to remember. During the national funeral, I already know that this year's test will be postponed to March next year." Wu Juren stroked the clump of beard on his chin, and said slowly: "Originally, if it wasn't for Emperor Hongzhi Okay, you have to prepare for the exam again. It is impossible for the old man to distract you. After all, it is important to study for homework. Now, I should consider it. Su Mu, I heard Miss Xiaodie said that you are not in Baoding. No relatives, I don't plan to go back to the countryside, I guess they will settle down in the capital in the future. That's fine, this place is good, let's find a matchmaker to propose marriage!"

"Propose marriage!" Su Mu was taken aback. If he really asked a matchmaker to propose marriage, let Hu Ying know, the ghost knows what that staunch woman would do: "This, this..."

Thinking of the consequences, Su Mu's vest broke out in a layer of cold sweat, and he also stuttered.

"So what?" Old Juren's green eyes glowed, and he said coldly: "Su Mu, you are also a seed of reading, you must know what etiquette and shame are. I think you know better than me about the Hu family. Factory guard and traitor, if you get married with Hu Shun, what face will you have to gain a foothold in Shilin in the future? Not only that, but others will laugh at you, and for the sake of power, you are willing to degenerate yourself. Didn’t you understand what I just said, men are outside It's not a big deal to be romantic and happy. But in this ethics, the superiority and inferiority cannot be messed up. If you want to welcome the daughter of the Hu family, you can, but you can only be a concubine."

Su Mu got angry when he heard it, and his face changed color: You, Wu Juren, wanted to marry his daughter to me, but you were the one who said, promise or not, I, Su Mu, didn't say a word, why do you object to me today, Su Mu? kill.I, Su Mu, don't owe you anything, Wu Juren, on the contrary, you have received my favor, so why are you turning your back on the guest today.

Besides, Hu Ying and I, Su Mu, have gone through hardships together, how could it be possible to let her be a concubine and suffer that kind of grievance.

It's also my fault for not being firm in my will. When Wu Juren mentioned this matter, I should have refused directly. Why are there so many troubles now.

Thinking of this, Su Mu made up his mind and said with a smile: "The old man's words are wrong. It is up to him to decide what kind of path a person will take in the future. A gentleman only needs to stick to his heart, and it doesn't matter what others say. .”

"You!" The old Juren erupted immediately, slapped the table with a slap.

Su Mu also stood up with a hush, he is a young man and has his own temper.

Just like that, the two of you kicked me and I kicked you, breathing heavily at the same time.
