Chapter 759
"Okay, okay, don't all flatter me. If I hadn't organized this dinner party today, I would have been suffocated to death at home."
"Brother Dongfang is having a smooth sailing. Zhang De was cleaning up the court two days ago, but your Dongfang family is safe and sound! So what's there to worry about?"
Dongfang Shuo sighed: "You don't know, I like that young lady from the Liu family, but recently I found out that she has been engaged for several years. After hearing this, I always felt uneasy, so I wanted to find someone.
Let’s have a drink with old friends.”
"What girl from the Liu family?" Zhao Min's eyes lit up after hearing this. It was obvious that he liked to listen to gossip the most, especially this kind of gossip, which made people's hearts beat the most.
"Okay, Zhao Min, have you read too much in the picture book? Please stop saying a few words, this is not a picture book."
"What does that mean? I'm just asking whose lady is so honored."
Zhao Min was really curious. Although Dongfang Shuo was usually lustful, he was still very talented. Although he didn't win the exam last time in Qiu Wei, he was the one with the most potential among the candidates this time.
Wei Rulan looked at the smoky environment, the mocking voice in the distance, and the rich smell of powder. He had already been sitting here impatiently, watching these things fight with him.
Wei Rulan becomes even more irritable when she doesn't care about people.
We knew that this boy Zhao Wenwu was fine, what serious purpose could there be in calling him out? If I had known, I wouldn't have come out.
"Which young lady from the Liu family could she be? Who else in our capital could be worthy of me except Liu An's daughter Liu Wenjing?"
After Dongfang Shuo finished speaking, he drank a glass of wine, which seemed to relieve a thousand worries.
"What? Are you talking about Liu Wenjing? That sister is a well-known lady in Beijing. She is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has a good character. My mother told my father two days ago, who would marry her?
This Liu Wenjing is burning incense on her ancestral grave."
Hearing what Zhao Min said, the group of friends next to him all joined in.
"Yes, yes, I heard that too. I heard that Liu Jia's threshold was almost broken, but Liu Wenjing ignored her at all."
"And I also heard that Liu Wenjing never likes to go out, but her reputation has spread throughout the capital."
"So there is a saying in ancient times that the aroma of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley. This is probably what it means."
Dongfang Shuo drank while listening to your conversation, thinking about that surprising glimpse, and always felt that something was missing in his heart.
Just like what they said, Liu Wenjing doesn't go out easily, and she doesn't like to gain any good reputation. Even her recent good reputation was three years ago.
At that time, Liu Wenjing's father was transferred to the capital. Liu Wenjing was dressed in white and looked like she had emerged from the mud. She was praised by the people in the capital as the most holy beauty in the capital.
This reputation is not for nothing. Ever since he met Liu Wenjing two days ago, even Dongfang Shuo, who is used to seeing beautiful women, has been deeply attracted to her.
Looking at the group of women from Yihongyuan dancing in front of them, they are simply vulgar fans.
Dongfang Shuo admitted that he was actually lustful, but now he felt that the reason why he was lustful was because he had not met the right person.
"Liu Wenjing! I have met her a few times."
Li Yingcai is no longer everyone's young master. His father was dismissed and sent to the border. In fact, his father Li Jinzhong had been tortured to death by Zhang De. Now Li Yingcai is a lackey around Dongfang Shuo. After all,
We grew up together, and Li Yingcai’s knowledge and literary qualities have stood the test.
"What did you say? You have seen her."
Dongfang Shuo immediately put down his wine glass and grabbed Li Yingcai's shoulder.
"You have met her, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Young Master Dongfang didn't ask. If I had asked, I would have told you long ago."
Li Yingcai took Dongfang Shuo's hand off, patted the worn silk clothes, and then said slowly.
"I was destined to meet her five years ago. I met her a few times in Ankang County. I was shocked at that time. However, there has been no news in these years. Counting the years, she should have reached the age to discuss marriage.
I’m not married yet, I don’t know why.”
Dongfang Shuo was actually very surprised. For a girl as outstanding as Liu Wenjing, there should be many people asking for her hand in marriage. Why was she so old and not married yet?
"I only found out that Liu Wenjing has actually been engaged for a long time, but the wedding has not been held yet. I don't know what the Liu family thinks."
"What else can you think of? You must be spoiled for choice."
Zhao Wenwu is a rough man. He picked up a few peanuts with chopsticks, but he was starving to death. He had already skipped two meals to find Wei Rulan, right?
"What do you mean?"
Perhaps it was because Dongfang Shuo liked Liu Wenjing and was not willing to let Liu Wenjing's reputation be ruined by others, and he did not allow anyone other than him to speak ill of Liu Wenjing behind his back, so he felt a little hostile towards Zhao Wenwu.
"Hey, brother, don't get excited yet, listen to me."
Zhao Wenwu put down his chopsticks, and then thought about it seriously before saying: "I mean, maybe Liu Wenjing is riding a donkey to find a horse. She first finds a man with good status and conditions, but she doesn't really care about him.
I am satisfied, so I have delayed getting married until now. Then Brother Dongfang’s opportunity will come!”
Dongfang Shuo's eyes lit up after hearing this. Is it really like this?
"Probably not."
At this time, Zhang Zhengwen, who had not spoken to anyone since Wei Rulan, spoke up.
In fact, Zhang Zhengwen is two years younger than Dongfang Shuo and the others, but he is also a few years older than Zhao Min. In addition, Zhang Zhengwen is already tall and big, and something like that happened to him when he was a child, so he is relatively mature mentally.
"If Miss Liu really wanted to ride a donkey and find a horse, he would have attended various gatherings. But if Brother Dongfang hadn't mentioned it from now on, I would have basically forgotten about this person. Liu Wenjing wanted to fade away from people.
Sight."
Dongfang Shuo nodded after listening to Zhang Zhengwen's words. He really didn't understand now, what was the Liu family's plan?
If Liu An really wanted to do the best for his daughter, he should have married her off long ago and wouldn't have had her aborted until now.
If you really don't want your daughter to get married, you should have broken the engagement early. The current situation is really confusing to Monk Zhanger.
