The Counterattack of the Cannon Fodder Man

Shi Qinghu was not unaware of the developments in the county, and he was very happy about it. This child was indeed a rough diamond, and he could be considered to have found a good talent this time.

Seeing that the child came to visit him a few days after his return, Shi Qinghu asked someone to open the door. As for the gifts he brought, the servants in the house also accepted them.

Shi Qinghu has a fairly grand mansion in the county town, but he usually keeps a low profile.

Although the master was respected by the officials in the county and many people sent gifts to his mansion, the servants in the mansion did not think highly of themselves.

Seeing Qian Tongyu, he did not despise him, but respectfully invited him in. After a few days, the news that this young scholar became Master Shi's disciple and officially studied with him spread.

It turned out that a few years ago, this young scholar had already become Master Shi's disciple. No wonder he was so powerful. Some people who originally had special thoughts about Qian Tongyu also gave up these thoughts because of Master Shi.

With the support of Mr. Shi, the old scholar, this young scholar cannot move.

Qian Tongyu, the youngest scholar in the Daqian Dynasty, was also very popular in this county for a while. Because Shi Lao Jinshi accepted this young scholar as his apprentice, some powerful people also paid attention to this young scholar.

As the business of the two shops at home became better and better, some wealthy businessmen in the county town actually planned to make plans for the Qian family's prescriptions or something.

Now that they have such a young scholar in their family and an old Jinshi as their backer, they can't move even if they want to.

Many people have put their minds to rest...

Qian Tongyu's life was turbulent and a little high-profile, but soon returned to calm. He continued to study with Master Shi, and this time he studied more deeply than usual.

Xie family.

Mr. Xie said to his son, "Qian Tongyu is indeed a good student and his future is definitely limitless.

If you need to continue to befriend him. But it was really unexpected that he could actually pass the Nanjing Prefecture examination and become the first in the court. He is also the youngest scholar in the Daqian Dynasty.

He is progressing much faster than you. I am afraid he has already caught the attention of many people. This is an opportunity but it may also involve some risks. "

Xie Cheng replied naturally: "Of course I will continue to be friends with Brother Qian. We have a deep relationship."

After returning from a trip to Nancheng County School, Xie Cheng stayed at home. He planned to study with his father first, and then ask his uncle for advice.

After the provincial examination, I will see if I can find a famous teacher in the capital. After all, Xie Cheng also plans to take the imperial examination and become an official.

Looking at his father, Xie Cheng's arrogant expression became awkward. He said a little embarrassedly: "Father, I have something to ask of you..."

Xie Cheng wanted to settle down as soon as possible because he was afraid that his beloved girl would be married to someone else. He could get engaged first and then get married in two years.

He is still a little young now, but Xiaozhu is old enough. If Xie Cheng really likes her, he should show some sincerity.

Getting engaged in advance and preparing a marriage certificate is also a guarantee for the woman.

Seeing his son's shyness, Mr. Xie also felt a little strange. His son was a straightforward person, saying whatever he wanted and rarely showing such an expression.

"Cheng'er, is there anything you want?"

"You can get a reward if you pass the exam to become a scholar. You can ask for anything you want. As long as it's within my ability, it'll be fine."

Thinking that his son had always performed very well, Mr. Xie felt that he should give his son some appropriate rewards.

"Father, I want you to go to Brother Qian's house to propose marriage. I have a girl I like, the sixth daughter of the Qian family, Qian Xiaozhu..."

When talking about the person he likes, Xie Cheng's face turned embarrassed and a slight blush appeared on his face.

He couldn't help but scratch the corner of his clothes. This was the first time he had revealed his feelings to his family. Apart from Brother Qian, no one else knew that he liked the sixth daughter of the Qian family.

Although he had tried to get along with Sister Xiaozhu and express his love for her after Qiandi revealed his feelings to him, Sister Xiaozhu seemed a little nervous and didn't understand what he meant at all.

But Xiaozhu was old, and the Qian family seemed to be preparing to see her. If he missed the chance, Xie Cheng thought he would be very upset.

Mr. Xie did not expect his son to make such a request. He was stunned for a moment, and he really did not expect his son to have fallen in love with her so early.

He did not answer immediately, but thought about it carefully.

If this marriage really happened, what impact would it have on the family? To be honest, their two families were not well matched. Although the Qian family had a scholar, their family background was still far behind theirs.

The sixth daughter of the Qian family is just a farm girl. But Qian Tongyu is indeed highly investable. They missed the Chu Lan before.

Qian Tongyu was not only a promising talent, but also had a good eye. He also assisted Chu Lan and even married him.

If I could marry into the Qian family, it would be great to have two more promising scholars as my connections.

This young scholar has a bright future. The fact that he has Master Shi as his apprentice is enough to show that he has a bright future.

After calculating, this is still profitable. This young scholar may become a great figure in the future. If my son has a marriage relationship with the Qian family, it may be able to help my son in the future.

Xie Cheng couldn't help feeling disappointed when he didn't get a reply from his father... But even if his family didn't agree, he still wanted to be with Sister Xiaozhu.

Before Xie Cheng made up his mind to say anything harsh, Mr. Xie also made a decision after thinking about it in his heart.

"Okay, it's not impossible to ask the Qian family for marriage. But you must study hard and continue to take the imperial examinations. You must pass at least one Juren exam before you are 25 years old."

Mr. Xie had high expectations for his son. He himself passed the imperial examination and became a juren, which made him feel a little regretful. He failed to pass the imperial examination and became a jinshi...

"Okay, Dad, I agree."

"But can you wait a few days before proposing?"

Although Xie Cheng was very happy that his father agreed, he suddenly remembered that this matter still needed to be approved by the woman in advance.

The Qian family really values ​​their daughter's opinion, so he must first settle with Sister Xiaozhu. Thinking of Sister Xiaozhu's completely unknown situation, he became a little anxious.

But the good news now is that my father has agreed to it, so there will definitely be no problem with my mother's side. Xie Cheng was a little surprised that his family agreed so quickly.

He didn't think at the moment that it was his brother Qian's value and future that attracted his father, a shrewd investor.

Mr. Xie looked at his son and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This child has really grown up. He also replied:

"Okay, whatever you want. As for the gifts for the marriage proposal, my family will prepare them in advance. The girl from the Qian family is not bad either. But you have to think about it. This girl is two years older than you.

As for when she gets married, she will have to learn how to manage the household and the accounts. "Although Mr. Xie could reluctantly agree that the two families were not a good match, the Xie family was still a big family after all.

They only have one son, and he will definitely become a lady in the future. He has to learn everything he should learn, and it might be a bit hard at that time.

After dealing with his father, Xie Cheng also plans to continue working hard to deal with Xiao Zhu. He will definitely prove his intentions.

Xie Cheng was afraid that Qian Xiaozhu had gotten engaged to someone else, so he spent some of his time pursuing her.

But Qian Xiaozhu didn't seem to expect that this classmate who was two years younger than her would like her. Moreover, this was the baby of Mr. Xie.

This inexplicably made Qian Xiaozhu feel flattered.

"No way, how could you possibly like me?"

"Did you break your brain?"

After Qian Xiaozhu knew that this guy liked her, she couldn't help but take a few steps back, and her face turned red for no reason. No one had ever confessed to her in her life.

This made Qian Xiaozhu a little confused about what to do.

Qian Xiaozhu said awkwardly, "We are not suitable for each other, and I don't have that kind of intention towards you. Not only am I two years older than you, but our families are not opposite to each other."

"Your family should be able to find a good partner for you in the future, maybe a lady from a wealthy family. You may have been saved by me once before, so maybe this is just out of admiration.

It seems a little unlikely that you like me. After all, we haven’t spent much time together, and liking me may just be an illusion...”

Facing the young man Mu Ai's thoughts, Qian Xiaozhu also wanted to cut it off. After all, the two of them were really not suitable...

Her family had no intention of finding her a marriage partner with such a high threshold, and she knew that this was a good match. In Qian Xiaozhu's eyes, Xie Cheng was at best just a younger brother.

If she really married Xie Cheng, she might run into some trouble in the future. She couldn't stand her mother-in-law targeting her, and there were also the rules of the big family.

She had always felt that the Xie family was out of her reach. In the county, the Xie family was a wealthy family and had connections with the county magistrate.

Xie Cheng did not expect to be rejected so bluntly. Although he was a little frustrated, he still said firmly: "I really like Sister Xiaozhu, and age is not a problem. My family has already agreed.

If Sister Xiaozhu marries me, I will treat you well and never make you sad..." He liked so many girls, but he didn't want to give up so easily.
