Chapter 52

The word "Misty" was written in an ancient style, full of elegance and charm. Zhang Xiaohua wrote it in one go, making the surrounding crowd stunned.

Mister Liu, who was in the hall, heard the clamor outside, and suddenly became abnormally quiet. He also came out of the hall, and when he saw the two words on the bluestone board, he didn't say anything. He tasted it carefully and was actually stunned.

Speaking of the word "Misty", it was originally the word on the token. That day, after Zhang Xiaohua asked someone to recognize it, he had simulated, tasted, and practiced how to write it more than once in his heart. Other words like "Zhang Xiaohua" and "Zhang Xiaolong" were words that he couldn't write no matter how hard he tried. However, these two words had been deeply engraved in his heart, so naturally, he could write it at his fingertips. Of course, based on his standard that hadn't entered the school, writing with a brush would definitely be ridiculed by others. Using a mop to write, he naturally didn't have to care about techniques and such. Suddenly writing it was really shocking.

Of course, there were also people who didn't know the value of the word. That Butcher Liu was the first to speak, "Why aren't you saying anything? Is it good or bad? Say something?"

These words immediately woke everyone up. Everyone clapped their hands and praised together, "Good words, good words. The meaning is casual, the ancient charm is long, rare, rare, rare."

A few people who had ulterior motives couldn't help but praise. They muttered in their hearts, "This Mister Liu, the younger brother's standard is already so amazing, not to mention the older brother. He even said that he was from a bumpkin background. Isn't he too low-key? If this standard is considered a bumpkin, then what is our standard?"

Mister Liu's gaze also moved from the bluestone board to Zhang Xiaohua. He naturally knew of Zhang Xiaolong's standard, but this Zhang Xiaohua at such a young age actually had such standard. He really hid it deeply. He had treated him as a child before, but it seemed like he had eyes but didn't recognize Mount Tai. He had to dig more in the future.

Actually, Zhang Xiaolong was also very surprised, but now wasn't the time to be surprised. He still had to face the bridesmaid's second question.

Sure enough, the second question was still a literary question: Compose a poem.

Zhang Xiaolong, Zhang Xiaohua, Liu Qian, and Mr. Liu broke out in cold sweat. Who was so shameless?

Liu Yueyue was also very innocent. She said with her big eyes, "It's all the revenge of those disappointed people. Sister, if you want to blame someone, blame your charm."

Zhang Xiaohua wanted to step forward again, but she was stopped by Zhang Xiaolong, who said, "Xiaohua, look at Big Brother this time."

Zhang Xiaolong lowered his head and pondered, pacing back and forth. Not long after, he raised his head and said to the crowd, "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm just a man who grows crops in the fields, I can't be compared to all of you. However, I've always believed that everyone in this world has their own role to play in survival. Scholars have their own uses, farmers have their own uses, no one can be missing. Today, I'll pretend to be cultured, and reluctantly compose a poem.

After saying that, he raised his voice and said, "I was originally a banished immortal in the heavens, wandering in the mortal world for decades. I was just waiting for the opportunity to meet the hidden dragon and soar into the heavens."

This time, the crowd was stunned again. Logically speaking, this poem did not rhyme at all, and the word count was also wrong. However, the concept contained within was very distant, and the momentum was boundless. The crowd did not know how to evaluate it.

At this time, Mr. Liu interjected and said, "Nephew, this poem's concept is very good. The momentum is overwhelming. I hope nephew will study hard in the future and reach a higher level."

When everyone heard this, they could not help but say, "Mr. Liu, you're still calling him nephew. Shouldn't you change your way of addressing him?"

The crowd was in an uproar, and everyone said their own words. This second question was passed. At this time, Zhang Xiaohua gave Zhang Xiaolong a thumbs up. Zhang Xiaolong smiled and used his hand to wipe his forehead. It seemed that he was already sweating.

When Zhang Xiaolong once again walked to Liu Qian's boudoir, the third question appeared. If the bride was compared to an object, what would you want it to be?

This question was very tricky. Everyone's answer would be different, and no matter how they answered, it could be said to be a very good answer. It was also this kind of question that looked easy, but on the contrary, it was not easy to answer.

Many people in the crowd were thinking in their hearts. If they were to answer this question themselves, what would they say?

However, this question seemed to be too simple for Zhang Xiaolong. He did not even think and immediately answered, "I hope that Qian Qian is a mirror given to me by the heavens. When I make a mistake, she can remind me and correct me. I hope that Qian Qian is a lotus flower given to me by the heavens. We can be harmonious, respect, and love each other forever. I hope that Qian Qian is a crutch given to me by the heavens. When we are both old, we can support each other and grow old together."

Zhang Xiaolong's answer was so simple and straight to the heart. Everyone could not help but sigh in their hearts. Liu Qian indeed had a unique insight and found her true love. Originally, there were some people who were dissatisfied, but at this moment, they also felt Zhang Xiaolong's sincerity towards Liu Qian. They could not help but applaud and cheer. Liu Yueyue, who was listening in the room, also had stars in her eyes. She smiled and said to Liu Qian, whose face was red and her eyes were sparkling, "Sister, other people are all sour scholars. This future brother-in-law has not studied for a few days. How can he be so sour?

Could it be that sister's few days in the Zhang family can make this Zhang Xiaolong so sour? What kind of distance is that? "Liu Qian scolded," You're thinking too much.

Liu Qian scolded with a smile, "You little girl, you're always thinking in the wrong direction. I didn't think that this little dragon would have such literary talent and accomplishment. I didn't teach him these. I only thought that he had the potential in this area. It seems that I didn't misjudge him. Hee hee, Yueyue, why aren't you opening the door?" After that, she put the red veil on her head.

Liu Yueyue said, "Yes, bride." After that, she opened the door wide.

The people outside the room saw the door open and knew that the bride's side had passed. Naturally, there was a burst of cheers. Then, Zhang Xiaolong entered the room. Under the accompaniment of the bridesmaid, Liu Yueyue, he carefully brought Liu Qian out. They walked into the Liu family's hall together. In the hall, Mr. Liu was already sitting there. Zhang Xiaolong and Liu Qian walked in front of Mr. Liu and knelt down together to kowtow three times to the old man. After they finished, Mr. Liu quickly stood up and helped them up. At this time, Liu Qian was already sobbing. She felt the pain of leaving home. It was also because she had gone to other places in the past. In the end, she had to return to her home. No matter where she was, she always had this root in her heart. From today onwards, this was no longer her home. She did not need to think about coming back. She inevitably felt a sense of loss in her heart. Thinking about the place where she grew up and thinking about her mother not being able to see this scene, how could she still control her feelings?

Mr. Liu walked in front of Zhang Xiaolong. Zhang Xiaolong quickly called him father-in-law. Mr. Liu looked at Zhang Xiaolong's eyes and put Liu Qian's hand in his hand. He said, "Xiaolong, I'll leave Qian Qian to you. You must remember what you said to me before. Treat her well and don't let her down."

Zhang Xiaolong took Liu Qian's hand and said seriously, "Father-in-law, I treat Qian Qian sincerely. In the future, you can look at me. I will definitely not let you down."

Then, Mr. Liu walked in front of Liu Qian and took her hand. He said, "Qian Qian, in the future, you are a member of the Zhang family. You must serve your in-laws well and live a good life with Xiaolong. I don't want to say anything else. I just hope that you can grow old together and live a happy life."

Liu Qian cried and said, "I know, father. We will do it."

Then, Mr. Liu said, "Okay, you should go back quickly. They must still be waiting."

After saying this, Zhang Xiaolong took Liu Qian's hand and sent Liu Qian to the bridal sedan that had been waiting for a long time at the door. Then, he got on the horse and let Zhang Xiaohua lead the horse. Liu Yueyue accompanied by the bridal sedan. She led the bridal sedan and walked slowly from the Liu family's gate to the village entrance.

Mr. Liu watched from afar as the wedding crowd walked further and further away. He couldn't help but cry. The daughter that he had raised for such a long time was going to be married off in the blink of an eye. Even if she would live with him soon, she would not be the same person at that time. At that time, she would first be the daughter-in-law of the Zhang family. Thinking of this, Mr. Liu couldn't help but think of his deceased wife. It was a pity that she passed away early and couldn't see the scene of his daughter getting married.

At this time, Liu Kai also came over. He supported his father and comforted him, "Father, Xiaolong is a very good child. The people of the Zhang family are also very reasonable. Sister won't suffer any grievances when she marries over. Moreover, aren't you moving over to live with them soon? If there is anything, you will be the first to know. It's not much different from Sister living at home with you now."

Mr. Liu sighed and nodded. Then, he shook his head and turned back to the house.

Zhang Xiaolong and the others took the bridal sedan out of the village entrance of Baligou. Looking at the sky, it was already late in the morning. He said to Zhang Xiaohua and Liu Yueyue, "Looking at the time, it's already late. We have to hurry. Xiaohua, you ride with me. Yueyue, you also sit in the sedan. It's only right for the bridesmaid to sit in the sedan."

The two also followed Zhang Xiaolong's arrangement. One rode a horse and the other sat in the sedan. Only then did the wedding procession speed up and prepare to reach the Guozhuang House before noon.

When Zhang Xiaolong and Zhang Xiaohua were dealing with the bride's family, the other people in the wedding procession had already been arranged to eat and drink. Even the horse that Zhang Xiaolong rode had been fed well. After coming out of Baligou, the horse no longer played music. At this time, everyone was full of energy and was ready to hurry.

They still walked on the main road back. At this time, there were more people. Everyone was very interested in the wedding procession. Along the way, many people pointed at the wedding procession and commented on Zhang Xiaolong as the groom from time to time. They also guessed the appearance of the bride. It was a pity that the curtains of the bridal sedan were covered. Otherwise, everyone's eyes would look there, hoping to see the beauty of the bride.
