The first Taoist priest of the Tang Dynasty

What is this called?

This is called having never experienced a blind date, and you will never know what kind of state a blind date is.

Never know, a blind date brings curiosity and heart to both parties.

Zhong Wen in his previous life had never experienced a blind date.

Therefore, Zhong Wen was very curious, wondering whether women in this era would reject or accept such things.

What kind of mood should I be in if I meet someone who looks crooked?

Fortunately, Zhong Wen is still pretty and handsome, and he has a height if he wants to, and he has a good appearance.

Although she looks slender and zero, she is also impatient.

At this time, Xu Jie was sitting there with her head lowered, occasionally peeking at Zhong Wen, sometimes shy and sometimes blushing.

It made Zhong Wen feel a little embarrassed.

"Wen, don't just sit still, Jie is a good girl, you have to talk a lot with her." At this moment, Xu Shi looked at the young couple and spoke directly to Zhong Wen.

However, as soon as Xu's words fell, Zhong Wen felt even more embarrassed.

It seems that no one cares about face.

Zhong Wenke is also a normal man. Although he has seen some things, he has little contact with some women, so he doesn't know what he wants or what to do.

But now, as soon as Xu's words were spoken, the victims on both sides really didn't know what to do.

blush.

Xu Jie blushed, and Zhong Wen's old face also began to blush.

"Wen, Jie was raised by me. She is kind, kind-hearted, and literate." Seeing that the young couple didn't seem to speak, Xu introduced him again.

"Yes, yes, Wen, although you don't know Jie, A Niang has hugged her before, but she is sensible." At this time, Xiu also joined in, pretending to want to fast-forward the progress bar.

Zhong Wenqian sat there with his head lowered, feeling a little overwhelmed.

Blind date, blind date, let yourself in.

Originally, on the way here, Zhong Wen was determined, and his mentality should not change much, at most, he would just start as a spectator.

But now, being troubled by the current scene, he seemed to be a real blind date.

To be honest, Zhong Wen didn't intend to have any kind of blind date, let alone agree to such a marriage, no matter what, Zhong Wen would mess things up.

But now, it seems that there has been a change at the moment, and he has trapped himself in it.

"Grandmother, I'll go and see the villagers first, you are resting at home." At this moment, Zhong Wen really couldn't resist his family, so he hurriedly broke his embarrassment.

"Wen, what are you doing? The villagers are fine. Today is your business. You can't leave." Seeing that her grandson seemed to be running away, Mrs. Xu got up to stop her.

"Grandmother, I'm not leaving. You all sit here, and I don't know what you want. Besides, I have a thin face." Zhong Wen had to find an excuse to get away.

"Hehe, it turns out that Wen is also thin-skinned. Grandma didn't expect it. She blamed you. Then, Jie, you go out with Wen. The two of you can talk too much. It's really embarrassing to keep you here." You look a little embarrassed."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xu laughed.

However, Mrs. Xu didn't let go of Zhong Wen's blind date. She directly approached the lady Xu Jie, pulled her back, and said to her.

At this time, Xu Jie's face was almost like a burning cloud.

I don't know what she is thinking in her heart, but from her eyes, I can see some general situation.

It is estimated that Xu Jie has already taken a fancy to Zhong Wen.

In fact, in ancient times, men and women basically did not meet before they got married.

But fortunately, this era is a little more open, and it is not like the Ming and Qing Dynasties. After all, that era was the heyday of Confucianism.

But right now, the family of officials and eunuchs may pay a little more attention. As for scholars, they will definitely pay more attention.

But in the folk, or ordinary people's homes, basically they don't pay so much attention.

Most of them are still like Zhong Wen and the others, meeting or something, in front of the elders of both parties, to confirm whether the marriage is successful or not.

But it is basically impossible for Zhong Wen to take a girl out for a walk alone, but right now, it is also a precedent.

However, fortunately, it is Bai, and being in the village, basically there will be no jokes or gossip.

"Jie, it's convenient for you to go out with Wen for a walk. Mother knows you are thin-skinned. We are here, and you are too embarrassed to speak up. Go." Vigorously encouraged his daughter to go out.

Well, originally Zhong Wen wanted to hide for a while, but the quietness was impossible.

Zhong Wen went out of the house, and Xu Jie followed.

How could there be anyone in the village at this time? In such a cold place, who would come out to suffer the cold with nothing to do? The only bad excuse Zhong Wen made.

The two of them were so stupid, walking in the village one behind the other.

Most of the time, neither of them had ever spoken a word, and they just knew they were walking forward like this.

"I heard that you have read some books?" Zhong Wen couldn't stand the embarrassment, walked in front, and asked without looking back.

"Yes, I have read some books, only the Analects of Confucius and the Thousand Characters." Xu Jie suddenly heard Zhong Wen speaking in front of her, and her heart was pounding.

"Reading is good. You should read often. My sister has also read a lot of books." Zhong Wen really didn't know how to continue chatting with such a girl, looking for something that was not there.

Even my own sister was pulled in.

"I know, I've heard from grandma." Xu Jie replied in a loud voice.

Hua has read books and can read, she knows it.

However, she also got some general information from Zhong Wen's grandmother. She also knew that Zhong Wen was a Taoist priest.

"Can you do farm work?" Zhong Wen suddenly stopped and asked.

But at this time, that Xu Jie followed Zhong Wen with her head down, but she didn't expect that Zhong Wen would stop suddenly and hit Zhong Wen's back directly.

This time, the scene became even more embarrassing.

However, Zhong Wen didn't turn around, because he was embarrassed to turn around, fearing that this embarrassment would make it even more embarrassing.

At this moment, after Xu Jie hit Zhong Wen's back with her head, her heart beat even faster.

She has never had such close contact with a man, and she has reached the age of youth, moreover, Zhong Wen in front is still her blind date.

All of this made her chest bump wildly, her head lowered even lower, her face was already as red as that apple, and she was so hot that she was about to congest her brain.

"I, I, I don't know how to do farm work. A Niang who is a student should not do farm work, or I will be sorry for Wenquxing." Xu Jie paused for a long time before replying.

"Can't do farm work? You know my family needs to work. If you don't know how to do farm work, you don't need to go to school." Zhong Wen looked into the distance again and responded after listening.

Ruci replied, is this a blind date?

It was a blind date, but Zhong Wen wanted to use this to reject the marriage.

If she really wanted to marry into Zhong Wen's family, she wouldn't need to do any farm work, at most she would just do some housework.

A county marquis with the status of a governor, if his wife still needs to do some farm work, shouldn't the servants laugh at him?

Although Zhong Wen is a county lord and governor of a state, Zhong Wen is still that Zhong Wen.

Inseparable from anything, he was the son of a tenant.

When it's time to do farm work, I guess I have to do it, not to mention that I have a Taoist identity.

What do Taoists do?

Do you really think that meditation is done by reciting scriptures?

of course not.

Taoists also have to work, know how to do farm work, and do whatever they can.

"I, I can learn." Xu Jie immediately responded when she heard Zhong Wen in front of her about to do farm work.

"Do you know that my family was originally a tenant household, but now we no longer farm the land, so we must do some farm work. Although I am a county lord now, I am also a Taoist priest, nothing High officials and nobles."

"My Zhong Wen's wife may not be beautiful, but she must be sensible. I, Zhong Wen, dare not marry a woman who does not eat the fireworks of the world, and who does not touch the spring water with her ten fingers. Do you understand these things?"

Zhong Wen's words may be too straightforward.

But it was just as he thought in his heart, every sentence was reasonable, and also expressed his original wishes, and at the same time, he also wanted Xu Jie to understand that Zhong Wen didn't want to agree to this marriage.

"I know, I am willing to learn." After hearing this, Xu Jie felt a little nervous.

Although, before she came to Tagou Village, Xu had already identified Zhong Wen's identity, even if Zhong Wen's family had been in the past, she had heard Xu's story.

But when Zhong Wen's words came out again, she just remembered that the blind date man in front of her was a county lord.

Although, she, Xu Jie, didn't know what the county marquis represented, let alone how honorable the county marquis was.

She, Xu Jie, was originally a woman from a peasant family, and she was also the apple of the eye.

Ever since she was a child, her parents have spoiled her growing up. Don't do farm work, even family affairs, they have never let her do it. They just want this daughter of hers to marry well when she grows up. people.

If it wasn't because she had only one daughter in her family, it wouldn't be the case.

As for the daughter of a peasant family, there is no one who can read and write, and no one who can't work in the fields, and she is the only one in her family.

Because of this, Zhong Wen's grandmother thought that the woman her grandson married must have been educated and literate, otherwise, she would not have arranged this blind date.

"You learn it now, can you still learn it?" Zhong Wen suddenly turned around and looked at the lady in front of him.

"I, I, I can do it, I, I..." Xu Jie was even more nervous when Zhong Wen suddenly turned her head and stared at her, and even the words began to be a little unclear.

"Doing farm work is not an easy task. In addition to being able to do farm work, you must also understand that your body is too thin. Think about it, or ask your parents." After Zhong Wen finished, he raised his legs again. Go ahead.

"Happy New Year, County Marquis." At this time, a ten-year-old boy from the village ran over and saluted Zhong Wen.

"Happy Chinese New Year, it's so cold that you're not at home, why did you go?" Zhong Wen looked at the child, a little puzzled.

"Xianhou, I'm going to pick up the rabbit, the rabbit will freeze to death in the snow." Wa replied.

"Well, yes, you all come to my place in the afternoon, and you will inform everyone later." Zhong Wen understood after hearing this.

The children of poor families have long been in charge of the family, even if they are so young, they know how to find something for the family and come back.

"Okay County Marquis." After Nawa responded, she ran home.

But at this moment, Xu Jie, who was following behind, saw another side of Zhong Wen.

Although she just listened to Xu's introduction, she couldn't tell the reason between the lines, but at this time, through Zhong Wen's conversation with a baby, she could also know some other things.

Chapter 357 New Year's Red Envelopes All over the Village

Xu Jie looked at Zhong Wen's conversation with the little baby, which made her understand what kind of person Zhong Wen really is.

Of course, she only understands Zhong Wen's behavior from this one-sided place, and there are many things that she needs to discover or understand.

As far as the moment is concerned, Zhong Wenna is only talking to the little baby he sealed, and it is impossible to know everything.

……

"Xiao Wen, how is it? How do you feel about that little lady?" At noon, Xiu pulled Zhong Wen to find out about him and Xu Jie.

If my son is married, why don't I have more snacks.

What's more, as a mother, she still knows a little about Xu Jie's character. After all, she used to be from a village.

"Aniang, have you really fallen in love with that little lady? Don't you know that she can't do much work, could it be that after she passes through the door, you are asked to wait on her?" Zhong Wen said in a low voice.

"You child, what are you talking about? Mother still has to take care of Xiao Wu. However, I heard from your grandmother that the little lady is very well-behaved and educated. That's why she wanted to tell you about this marriage." Xiu looked nervously in the direction of the main room, and then said to Zhong Wen.

"Auntie, our family doesn't invite servants. Xu Jie never did any work when she was a child. If she really married into our family, do you want Xiaohua to work and serve her? This is not reliable." Zhong Wen once again stated that Xu Jie had never done any work, so he could use this to mess up the marriage.

"It's a matter. I've been hearing what your grandmother said about it. I forgot that the little lady didn't do the work. But it's okay. I will ask you later." Xiu said about the work. If she wasn't keen, she thought that her son had to finish the marriage quickly, and she still wanted to hug her grandson.

Well, Zhong Wen has no intention of talking to his mother.

If it goes on, Zhong Wen will probably go crazy.

Perhaps, mothers are basically like this, but Zhong Wen just doesn't like this arrangement.

But if you don't like it, you have to accept it.

Who made Zhong Wen a part of this family? Moreover, he also understood that his parents wanted to embrace their grandson sooner.

In the afternoon, Zhong Wen's family and Xu's family sent the three of Xu Jie's family out and watched them go away.

And that Xu Jie always looked back at Zhong Wen from time to time, which made Zhong Wen's face a little uneasy.

Isn't this about dating?
