NOVEL WEB Chapter 385 Matchmaking
But Mo Zhiran didn't care what Lu Shengjing thought. In her eyes, Lu Shengjing was just an NPC now, and everything had to be done to complete the mission.
"I don't..." Lu Shengjing was about to struggle, but was interrupted by Mo Zhiran.
"He is, who is he? Only he can save you. Tell me, what trouble have you encountered?" Mo Zhiran looked at the man in front of her with confidence.
He didn't seem to believe it, but he was obviously desperate, so he simply told Mo Zhiran and Lu Shengjing to give it a try.
"The thing is like this. At the beginning of the year, after being introduced by someone, I met the young lady from the Wang family in the next village. After the meeting, we fell in love with each other and the two families were very satisfied, so we discussed proposing a marriage. But at this time, A woman came out of nowhere and said she was my childhood sweetheart, but I didn't know her at all. She wanted to marry me, saying that we had already made a private commitment for life. I couldn't regret it and let her down. But I It’s really unfair, I don’t even know this woman, she’s just messing around.”
"and then?"
"Then the Miss Wang family learned about this matter, and she cut off contact with me in a fit of rage. I was so anxious that I ran out of ideas. I thought that Lord Fox Fairy might be able to help me by saving all sentient beings, so I came to this temple. Here we come.”
When Mo Zhiran heard this, she realized that this was a matter of marriage. The time, place, and characters all fit. Here, except for the worker in the coarse linen shirt and the one kneeling on the ground, everyone else is a monk. It is impossible for him to have any troubles in the world. There is a high probability that his problem will be solved.
At this time, the shaved man kneeling in the middle also woke up. He was always a good person. When he heard this kind of thing, he immediately reached over and joined their discussion, "Then as you said, this so-called childhood sweetheart, You've never seen it before? Do you seriously?"
"It's absolutely true, everything I said is the truth." The man in coarse clothes with a dark face was almost anxious, and he explained again and again, "But Miss Wang and her parents don't believe me. In our village, people put their reputation This is more important than anything else. If I let that woman cause trouble, my reputation will be completely ruined, and Miss Wang will never be able to marry me again."
"It seems that you really like this Miss Wang. Do you still want to be with her?" Mo Zhiran asked.
"Of course I do," the man's face turned rosy when he mentioned Miss Wang's family, but when he thought of his current experience and situation, his face turned bitter again, "But now I heard that our parents want to My daughter has been betrothed to another family. When I heard the news, I was absolutely heartbroken. It seems that we are destined to be together in this life. Alas, it was a combination of fate and destiny."
"Does Miss Wang still have feelings for you?" asked the half-shaved man.
The man in coarse clothes said bitterly, "We were originally in love, and she should also be happy with me, but now in her heart, I have betrayed her, plus her parents' orders and the matchmaker's words, I understand Her difficulties..."
After listening to the man's words, Mo Zhiran got a general idea of the situation. According to this man, all the problems stem from that childhood sweetheart who suddenly appeared, so the top priority now is to find her and confront her face to face to find out why she did this.
"Where is that so-called childhood sweetheart now?"
The man was also confused after hearing this, "I have been up the mountain for several days. Before I went up the mountain, she had been staying in my yard. She said that she wanted to marry me and wanted me to marry her every day. It bothered me so much, and it was just for her own sake. After proving her innocence, she went up the mountain to seek refuge in the temple, so I haven’t seen her for several days, probably... at my house."
"Then we will set off to find her immediately." Mo Zhiran said immediately, "All the puzzles lie in her. Only by finding her can things turn around."
The man is now helpless. Anyway, the situation is already like this. No matter how bad it is, it can't get any worse, so he will set off with Mo Zhiran and the others.
"Then I'll go too! How can I be a chivalrous and righteous young master without me!" The young man who was kneeling in the middle just now and got shaved immediately jumped up from the ground like a spring, took three steps and two steps at a time, and left. In front of everyone.
Half of his head has been shaved bald by the abbot, and the other half still has long hair reaching his waist. He looks very nondescript, but fortunately, this guy looks like he has a strong heart and doesn't care what others say. Since he can With such a hairstyle, he made an impassioned speech.
Although Mo Zhiran felt that this buddy was not reliable, he always wanted to accompany him, so he got on the carriage together.
On the way, Mo Zhiran found out that the man whose marriage was blocked was also a scholar. He was admitted as a scholar and now taught in a private school. He was still somewhat educated. However, this was also because he followed the Three Cardinal Principles and Five Constant Rules too much and treated no one like him. They were all respectful and could not utter a single curse word, which was why they were so powerless to resist when they were framed and unable to deal with rogues. It was really a scholar meeting a soldier.
Lu Shengjing had been silent during this period, not because he didn't want to speak, but whenever he wanted to clarify his identity, Mo Zhiran stood in front of him and wouldn't let him say a word.
Fortunately, Lu Shengjing kept his mouth shut and acted as a competent actor, cooperating with Mo Zhiran to complete the drama of playing the role of Yue Lao.
On the way, when he calmed down a little, he slightly approached Mo Zhiran's ear and said, "Tool man?"
When he said this, he also pointed at himself.
Mo Zhiran was a little surprised. She didn't expect Lu Shengjing to be so sad, as if he had suffered some huge grievance.
Mo Zhiran laughed, "Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. You have to thank me. But you're welcome."
Lu Shengjing should have just rolled his eyes at this moment, but people like him never expressed these complex emotions in person, so he still looked very calm on the surface.
The carriage soon arrived at the scholar's home.
Sure enough, as soon as she stopped, Mo Zhiran saw a woman wearing red cloth in the courtyard. The woman was lying leisurely on a deck chair in the courtyard. When she saw a carriage parked at the door, she immediately stood up and looked outside. . The moment he saw the scholar get out of the car, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately switched from the leisurely state to the mode of pear blossoms and rain. Anyone who saw his acting skills would be amazed. He would turn his face faster than turning the page of a book. If he didn't win an Oscar, What a humiliation.
"Oh, you're back. I thought you didn't want me anymore. You've made a lifelong commitment to me, how could you just walk away and ignore me? Are you going to be such a heartless person? Human? Do you have the heart to leave a weak woman like me and go alone? You are so cruel..."
Seeing the woman's crying appearance, the scholar couldn't help or support her for a while. He stood upright and froze there.
Before Mo Zhiran could step forward, the young master couldn't bear it any longer. With his cool and outrageous hairstyle, he jumped out of the carriage and started scolding the woman, "You are so strange, woman. The scholar hasn't said anything yet, but you just said a bunch of words, is it possible that he will be determined for life? Just rely on your one-sided words? What evidence do you have? Come out and see when the time comes, don't frame others with empty words here. " The young master said it so rudely that the woman who was used to being domineering didn't react and was stunned on the spot.
But after being stunned for a few seconds, the woman said in a strong tone, "I have skin-to-skin contact with him, what evidence do I need?" Isn't this evidence enough? Moreover. Who are you? You dare to come and take care of our household affairs. Get out of here quickly, or I will sue you for harassing a common woman! "
"Hmph," Young Master snorted coldly, "I've seen a lot of shrews like you. I can't produce evidence. You're used to slandering others with words. If you have the ability, come up with evidence."
The woman yelled even louder, "Who is the shrew? Who is the shrew? Tell me clearly, you are the slanderer, be careful, I will go to the government to sue you! I will sue you for harassing civilian women, and I will sue you for frame-up!" "
At this time, in other yards, the neighbors next door poked their heads out, but for fear of getting into trouble, they immediately retracted their heads and closed the doors and windows. But what Mo Zhiran and the others knew was that behind the closed doors and windows, the neighbors must have pricked up their ears to listen to what was happening in the outer courtyard.
And today, the news will definitely spread throughout the village, even to the next village, which will not be conducive to the scholar's situation.
This is the purpose of this woman, to use loud noises and rumors to destroy the reputation of the scholar, so that she has to compromise.
Looking at this woman's posture, Mo Zhiran knew that she was a messy person. She didn't care about the logic of what she said. As long as it was beneficial to her, she would say it, and she would avoid everything that was not beneficial to her. It was impossible to argue with such a person. The one who wins will only be in trouble.
"You just said that you have made a lifelong commitment. If that's the case, then I have to go to your house to propose marriage. May I ask where the girl is from?"
The woman rolled her eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "Cao County."
Mo Zhiran pretended to be surprised and said, "Cao County, a good place, it has always been a wealthy town."
Then she lowered her voice and said in words that only a few people could hear, "It seems that your family background is worse than that of Miss Wang. Why don't you go and have a look today? You can't even use the dormitory over there." , if this young lady’s parents can agree, wouldn’t everyone be happy and a good marriage would be achieved?”
When the woman opposite heard this, she wanted to say something, but she didn't.
I saw that the scholar was already shocked. If he refused, Mo Zhiran blocked his mouth just as he was about to say it.
"What did this girl want to say just now?"
The woman said, "You just said that Miss Wang is so contemptuous and it can't be done anymore. Why?"
"Then Miss Wang has already promised someone else, but it just won't work out, right?"
"Really!" The woman was overjoyed when she heard the news, but suddenly remembered that she needed to control her emotions and suppressed her joy.
