Chapter 373
"Master, what's wrong?"
Guo Zhengting returned home with a stern face. As soon as he entered the house, his gloomy face immediately made his wife ask with concern. Guo Zhengting snorted and shouted angrily: "Come that little brat Dalang for me!"
"What did Dalang do?"
Xue asked quickly, but Guo Zhengting refused to answer, but just snorted coldly. After a while, Guo Yaoqing was brought in by his servants, looking timid, obviously very guilty: "Father, you call your son to come, don't know what's wrong?"
"Ba"-
Guo Zhengting slapped the table on the table and asked, "Fang Family, did you bring those two boys from the Xia family?"
Guo Yaoqing had a bitter face and replied, "Yes, I heard that my father was going to host the newly appointed general. Everyone had heard of the general's style and reputation. They were curious and asked me to take them in... Who knew that they would cause trouble!"
Guo Zhengting looked calm and did not speak. Xue quickly asked, "What happened?"
Guo Yaoqing quietly looked at his father, lowered his head and said, "It seems that Fang San said something inappropriate. Ji Qi accused him of a few words. Fang San was arrogant and couldn't bear it, so he called his minions to hide in the dark, preparing to beat Ji Qiyi. Who knew that he accidentally recognized the wrong person and collided with the general."
"Ji Qi?"
Guo Zhengting asked in a deep voice: "Is it the one who studied in the Imperial College? Shouldn't he be in the capital? When will he come back?"
Guo Yaoqing shook his head: "I heard that I came back before the autumn."
Guo Zhengting frowned: "Before the autumn? Did you finish your studies? I remember that it was only two years since he went to the Imperial College?"
Xue interrupted, "If you talk about this, you know more about your wife. Ji Qi is the youngest son of the third wife of the Ji family. His mother died early. Now the eldest sister-in-law in the family is in charge of the eldest sister-in-law. The eldest sister-in-law of the third wife wants to tell her that her sister from her family is Ji Qi, but Ji Qi refuses, and she has little relationship with her over the years."
Xue's orders stopped, and Guo Zhengting was also a great man. He was surprised and said, "His brother Ji San looked at him like this and ignored him?"
Xue said: "When the wife of Ji family was alive, she felt a little bit fond of Ji Qi and had a bad relationship with her eldest son, and Ji Qi and Ji San were not very close to each other."
"absurd!"
Guo Zhengting cursed, but he knew that it was someone else's family business, so he couldn't argue. However, he thought that he had made the literary match he had carefully prepared was ruined because of the nonsense of a few playboys, and even offended Zhang Changzong. He felt a sense of depression and felt extremely uncomfortable.
He glared at his son fiercely and cursed angrily: "What's going on with Ji Qi and Fang Sanlang? Also, which one is the kid who is with Fang San?"
Guo Yaoqing hurriedly said, "When I go back to my father, Ji Qi and Fang San are both youngest sons at home. Ji Qi has always been outstanding in his studies and has a good reputation among his elders. Fang San has always been dissatisfied with him. The two have little relationship in private and have fought several times, but nothing happened, so the family doesn't care about it. The one who follows Fang San is Xia Qiang, the only son of Xia Ji Huthouse in the city. It's not worth talking about anything."
Guo Zhengting snorted, not wanting to see him. Xue is a woman and is meticulous. He asked, "I know that these children often go to and from the provincial government to hold cultural gatherings and banquets. I often have some small fights, but I don't know how to be ignorant. Why did something go wrong at this cultural gathering?"
Guo Yaoqing said silly. Guo Zhengting snorted coldly and said angrily: "I don't think General Zhang was at a loss for the ambush. Instead, the boy from Fang San and the Xia family were beaten up by him and his people. Although he did not have any contact with him carefully and looked at his past behavior, the general was not a petty and narrow-minded person. However, this time he left without leaving any face for me. He asked me to ask carefully, and there must be something else. Dalang, but what else did he say?"
As he said that, he glared at his son with a slight expression. Guo Yaoqing was so scared that he shrank his neck and wanted to disappear on the spot. Seeing this, Xue didn't understand anything, so he reached out to pat him and said, "When is it? Do you still want to hide it? Do you know that the general is a popular man in front of His Majesty and a disciple of Shangguan Xiuyi in the palace. A few days ago, someone from the capital city specially escorted him the imperial gifts. If it weren't for His Majesty's favor, why would you come and travel thousands of miles to reward? Such favors are the kings of the Wu family, and the princes have never had them! Although your father is the governor of a state, he dare not offend him easily in front of him. It is of great importance. When do you want to hide it? Say!"
When Guo Yaoqing saw that his parents were angry, he was shocked and dared not hide it anymore. He tried his best to consider the words and said frankly: "Fang San has a good one. We friends know that most of the elders don't know. The reason why Ji Qi scolded him is that it is related to his good one."
Xue asked, "What's the best? It's time to wait. If your father doesn't understand the inside story, how can he explain to the general?"
Guo Yaoqing lowered his head, dared not raise his head, and whispered: "Fang San is a good manly style."
"puff"--
Guo Zhengting sprayed all the hot tea, and there was nothing I could understand in his heart! Fang San was so handsome, and the general had a face again. When he saw the lust, he spoke wildly—
No wonder Zhang Changzong left! If he was insulted, he would probably turn against him on the spot. The general was still able to talk to him in a friendly manner, and he was already well cultivated.
Guo Zhengting had a headache. He glanced at his son who was still standing, glared at him and scolded: "Look at what he did and who he made friends with! You can't continue like this!"
As he said that, he turned his head to look at his wife who was also angry and instructed: "When the road to spring is easier, I will send someone to the clan and send Dalang back to study hard for several years. I don't ask him to study and learn and teach people well."
Xue solemnly agreed: "My husband is very worried, so let's make arrangements for his wife. Dalang is just the age to marry. When the spring comes, he will send him back in person for his wife, and by the way, he will take him to a marriage. After marrying a wife, he wants to be more stable and cause less trouble for his family."
Guo Yaoqing instantly felt bitter and waited to beg: "Father, mother..."
Guo Zhengting said decisively: "Don't mention it again! You are already 18 years old this year. Look at the General Zhang, who is the same age as you. What did he do, what did you do, are you ashamed?"
Guo Yaoqing couldn't speak for a moment and could only shut up in disappointment. Guo Zhengting learned the details of the inside and stopped mediating. The next day when the Fang family asked to come to the door, he didn't even see anyone. He directly refused the Fang family's request to introduce him, and only asked the doorman to say that the Fang family should take good care of their children.
Then, he wrote a post, visited Zhang Changzong, sincerely apologized, and politely told him about the information and the identities of the two boys. Zhang Changzong treated him as usual, with a gentle and polite attitude, and obviously did not blame him. However, when the Fang family handed over the post to pay a visit, the general's house did not even answer the post.
Xia Family—
Not to mention, it is just a merchant, so what can I do if my business is good? Not to mention the family status of a second-rank general Zhang Changzong, even the governor's mansion and others are not up to the level.
