Kong Qingqiu: "But I have no impression of this Zou family."
Mr. Kong: "'Continuing our relationship' is just an excuse. At that time, he was already the head of a thousand households, so how could he still like our family? Our family has been in business since your great-grandfather, and it wasn't until you were sixteen years old that he He has supernatural power, but it is just his mental power that can see through other people's thoughts. You know, Mr. Zou also has this magical power. There are still many people with magical powers in the world. Of course, he wants to find someone more powerful. Assist his son."
Kong Qingqiu: "So the marriage was finally abandoned, right?"
Mr. Kong: "That's right, his family has torn up the marriage certificate, so it's over. I keep this marriage certificate till now. I just hope that if one day you have a husband of your dreams, I will tell him the whole story in person. Make it clear so that no nefarious person will stir up trouble in the future. After all, you are the daughter of a family, and this is a child who has gone through a clear path, so I will always explain the whole story clearly to your future husband-in-law."
Master Kong looked at Tang Ren solemnly and said, "I hope Mr. Tang can forgive me for my selfishness. I'm afraid that if I tell you this old incident first, I will scare you away. But this is not my fault, she has been I have never met Mr. Zou in person. We, the elders, did not arrange it well, so she suffered an annulment in vain. I think Mr. Tang is infatuated with his daughter, and the daughter also has a deep love for Mr. Tang. They are really a couple. Husband and wife, I hope there won't be any estrangement because of this old incident."
Kong Qingqiu looked at Tang Ren anxiously.
Tang Ren held Kong Qingqiu's hand and said to Master Kong: "This is not Qingqiu's fault. How could I blame her for such a thing! Master Kong, don't worry too much, and Qingqiu shouldn't worry too much. I have spent my whole life The treasure was given to Qingqiu, and I recognized her. No matter what she has gone through, I will remain committed. What's more, a man relies on his own ability to settle down and live a life. Marrying a wife and having children depends on being in love with each other. It doesn't matter if you have been engaged. In the end, he and her It’s me who lives my whole life, and that’s enough.”
Master Kong felt relieved, and Kong Qingqiu also exhaled.
Master Kong immediately tore up the old marriage contract and hired a good friend with a prosperous offspring to act as a matchmaker to set a wedding date for Kong Qingqiu and Tang Ren.
Since then, the marriage between the two has been finalized, and Kong Dalang was the first to rejoice.
He was extremely proud, and told everyone he met that his future brother-in-law was a fifth-grade peak Confucian knight who was about to enter the Confucian Ranking.
Kong Qingqiu was not idle either. He collected grain and various rare soldiers with great fanfare, and showed off Tang Ren's preference for her to others without hesitation.
The marriage of the Kong family attracted a lot of attention and discussion, including the Zou family.
Zou Chongyu knew that he and Kong Qingqiu were engaged since he was very young. He had also seen Kong Qingqiu from a distance. She was as her name suggests, beautiful and cheerful, and she was a woman who suited his liking.
But his father told him that no one in the Kong family had supernatural powers for four generations. If he married a family like that, he would probably live a mediocre life in the future.
Having a father from a thousand households, Zou Chongyu was really unwilling to marry a mediocre merchant family.
Although Kong Qingqiu is beautiful and refined, compared to a wife with supernatural powers, Kong Qingqiu is not so precious.
But it's strange that ever since he began to understand things between men and women, he seemed to have never met a woman like Kong Qingqiu.
Although there are often distinguished guests coming and going at home, the girls they bring to see them are either submissive and indifferent, or they are annoyingly arrogant. Sometimes they have similar temperaments, but they always feel that they are inferior to Kong Qingqiu. Meaning, he couldn't tell what the difference was.
His parents had been looking for candidates for him since he was fourteen years old. In the blink of an eye, five years later, they had not been able to find anyone who satisfied him.
When Zou Chongyu was nineteen years old, his father could no longer stand his pickiness and finally prepared to get him engaged. However, news suddenly spread to the Kong family that Kong Qingqiu had developed supernatural powers.
Zou Chongyu intercepted the matchmaker on the street who was going to accept the lottery. He begged his father not to look at the Kong family again, maybe he could get married with the Kong family this time.
Mr. Zou refused, saying that there was no turning back when the bow was fired.
A few days later, Zou Chongyu actually ran away from home on the eve of the war, completely offending Mr. Zou's chosen in-laws.
Unfortunately, the marriage had to be abandoned.
Zou Chongyu waited until the news of the cancellation of the marriage was confirmed before returning to the Zou family. He was severely punished by Mr. Zou. Mrs. Zou cried and stood in front of her son to prevent him from being beaten to death.
After his anger subsided and he returned to his senses, Mr. Zou found a way to go to the Kong family to find out what was going on. It turned out that Kong Qingqiu's awakened magical power was actually the same as his own, and he could read people's thoughts.
Mr. Zou feels that marrying a daughter-in-law who has the same magical powers as himself is asking for trouble. Not only will he not be able to plan freely at home in the future, but his thoughts will also be read by his daughter-in-law. He firmly does not allow this marriage, let alone Allow Zou Chongyu to see Kong Qingqiu.
Zou Chongyu wanted to run away from home, but his father imprisoned him in advance for half a year.
When Zou Chongyu was finally released, news came from the Kong family - Kong Qingqiu was engaged to a Confucian knight at the top of the fifth rank!
When Mr. Zou heard the news first, he was happy. Now he could finally stop thinking about his son.
But then he heard that the scholar had given all his treasures to Kong Qingqiu, and he couldn't sit still.
He sent people to visit the shops and people Kong Qingqiu had visited recently, and found that Kong Qingqiu not only collected a wide range of food and spiritual plants, but also spent a lot of money to buy many weapons and spiritual treasures.
The Kong family is not in the weapons business, but Mr. Kong, who has always been cautious, actually let Kong Qingqiu do whatever he wanted.
Does Kong Qingqiu want to support his husband to become the next Qianhu?
So, the magical power she cultivated was not just his mind power, but something even more powerful?
Therefore, that fifth-grade Confucian scholar named Tang Ren was willing to give away his lifelong treasure?
Of course Master Zou would not know that Kong Qingqiu's "new magical power" was actually a treasure book given by Tang Ren. Kong Qingqiu did not tell anyone else about this, and Master Zou could not read this from anyone's mind.
But from the thoughts of many servants of the Kong family, he read the magnificent scene in Kong Qingqiu's boudoir that night, and also read the joy of Master Kong and Kong Dalang. Kong Qingqiu's high-profile behavior made him even more suspicious.
Master Zou had a plan in his mind.
He called Zou Chongyu and asked, "Do you still want to marry that Kong Qingqiu now?"
Zou Chongyu was heartbroken: "How could my father not know that she is already engaged?"
Mr. Zou: "So what if she is already engaged? I just ask you, do you still want to marry that Kong Qingqiu?"
Zou Chongyu raised his eyes and looked at his father: "Can I?"
Mr. Zou: "Do you want to?"
Zou Chongyu's pupils suddenly grew bigger: "I think, I think, of course I do!"
Mr. Zou: "As a father, I will help you."
The next day, he took Zou Chongyu to the Kong family with a wedding certificate and three cars of betrothal gifts.
The huge procession of marriage proposals attracted countless people on the street. Some interested people came forward to ask, and Mr. Zou's servant replied: "Our Zou family has already made an appointment with the Kong family, and now we are going to marry Miss Qingqiu." Hire!"
