Chapter 968

Apart from the butler Hu Tian, ​​there was also Xia Nu who followed Shen Hao.

The members of the Shen family have heard about Hu Tian for a long time, and know that this is an old man in Shen Hao's mansion, he is a confidant, and his status is not light and dare not neglect, so although Hu Tian abides by his duty as a servant, he can The Shen family still treated him as a distinguished guest.

Not to mention Xia Nu. Who doesn't know Master Shen dotes on the three fox girls in his mansion? Now even if you go home to recognize your ancestors, you will bring one, which means that it is treated as a concubine. The Shen family naturally did not dare to take it lightly.

During the banquet, Shen Wentian took the seat, Shen Hao sat on Shen Wentian's left hand side, and there were four other people at the table, all of whom were the second generation of the Shen family. The others sat at the next table.

Pushing a cup to change a cup, Shen Hao's drinking capacity can be regarded as the kind that can be held in the army, but in the Shen family, it is the existence that sweeps away everyone, no matter who comes to toast, he will be bored, the small cup of five yuan , drank more than 20 glasses in one breath, and it was more than a catty of wine, and it was still Wuliangye. The rest of the people here would have been drunk already, but for Shen Hao, it was just warming up.

The second generation of the Shen family originally consisted of five people, three men and two women. After one married off, the remaining four were light drinkers. Let alone Shen Hao, even the old man Shen Wentian was much stronger than them.

However, Shen Wentian was getting old after all, so he stopped the cup after drinking a couple of ounces, and chatted with Shen Hao.

In fact, Shen Hao really had nothing to say, most of the time it was Shen Wentian who said he was listening. He listened carefully because he found that many of the "past events" that Shen Wentian slowly told were true and false, which made it difficult for you to tell the truth from the false, and there were even some small childlike pasts of Shen Hao's "childhood".

When he was happy, Shen Wentian laughed and pulled Shen Hao to clink glasses and drank it down. When it comes to sadness, it will wipe away the tears from the corners of the eyes.

Shen Hao watched the excitement and listened carefully, admiring the other party's professionalism and at the same time writing down everything the other party said. This is basically Shen Wentian helping him to perfect the "childhood past events" that did not happen in this world. If anyone asks about it in the future He just took Shen Wentian's rhetoric to deal with it.

Even after Shen Hao drank half of the wine, he felt that his "life experience" became plump in an instant. Even if it was fake, it still felt real. With the help of the Shen family, who would say that all of this was fake? ?

"Speaking of which, there are only two houses left in our Shen family. The big house on my side, and the third house on your side. The family members have declined to this point, and our descendants are also ashamed of our ancestors."

Shen Wentian is no longer an acting skill. From Shen Hao's point of view, this old man has completely substituted the identity of "uncle" into reality, and everyone can hear the shame and worry in his words. Combined with that look, Shen Hao was actually a little flustered, he realized what the next words would be.

Sure enough, as soon as Shen Wentian changed the subject, he switched from "ashamed to his ancestors" to Shen Hao.

"Although Dafang's children are not very up-to-date and there are no outstanding figures, they just rely on some hard work over the years to slowly prop up the situation. But fortunately, several daughter-in-laws can give birth, and the grandchildren are all smart. Smart and filial, I am very relieved.

But Hao'er, you are the only one who returns to the sect, and now you are the only one in the third house, there are no seniors and no younger ones, this is not appropriate. Besides, you are also in your thirties, and you are not married at this age, but do you want to be like your sister Wan Hui and be a bachelor for the rest of your life? "

Shen Wanhui is also in her late thirties, but she is still unmarried and takes care of her family's business. But Shen Wentian has always been brooding about this, even though he didn't force Shen Wanhui to marry, he would always say something about her.

It was the first time in Shen Hao's two lives that someone urged him to marry. He was a little distracted in a daze, and was almost brought into the role by the liar opposite. But the scene was okay, he smiled and replied: "Not at all. I met a woman before, so take your time."

"Talk about it! Make Uncle happy too! Haoer, Uncle tells you, you have to hurry up on this kind of thing, take your time and wait for nothing in the end, and if you encounter a good one, you must seize it, understand?"

Shen Hao nodded with a smile, followed Shen Wentian's words and gave a general account of his relationship with Yu Qiao, a young lady from the Yu family in Jingbei, and finally said: "I have only met twice, whether it will be possible or not?" clear."

"Stupid!"

Shen Hao was stunned by this sentence. How many years has no one dared to speak like this in front of him? Even Jiang Cheng and Pang Ban never talked to him like this. This old liar Shen Wentian is really courageous! Because Shen Hao's perception clearly felt that when Shen Wentian called him "stupid", the souls of the people present visibly trembled a few times, this was an instinctive reaction when they were frightened.

"What do you mean, uncle?" Shen Hao really didn't understand some rules about marriage in this world, and he didn't think to understand it before. Now being mentioned by Shen Wentian like this, I also want to hear what the other party has to say. As for the "stupid" the other party said just now, he just memorized it, and he didn't plan to make any more reactions.

Shen Wentian is naturally very courageous, otherwise he would not have done the trick of impersonating Shen Hao's relatives. Shen Wentian was very satisfied with the trial just now, although he sweated secretly, the result was still within his expectation.

From Shen Wentian's point of view, Shen Hao's performance was indeed making room for their relatives. The stiff smile on his face and the jerky soft eyes showed that this Mr. Shen was trying his best to show affinity, and it also showed from the side This "relative" is so important to this Mr. Shen who has been lonely since he was a child, so much so that he is willing to change his way of doing things.

If we really want to talk about emotional ties, Shen Wentian knew that just being a "relative" in name was far from enough to establish a family relationship with a stern person like Shen Hao, so he tentatively asked about Shen Hao's marriage. After all, according to Shen Wentian's understanding of the officialdom of the old Jing Dynasty, it is very rare for Shen Hao to get married in such a position, and it will even become a huge obstacle to his continued promotion.

Unexpectedly, he actually asked this question, and there was really a sign in Shen Hao's body. In this case, Shen Wentian naturally had a plan in mind.

For example, to help Shen Hao confirm the marriage, and formally appear as Shen Hao's elder in it. And there is no need to deliberately find out the reason, because when the two parties get married, according to the etiquette, the elders of both parties should help the younger generation to make arrangements, and customs such as betrothal gifts should also take the lead.

"Hehe, Hao'er, you didn't understand this matter. The Yu family even let you meet their young lady, and you also accepted the things they gave you later on. Together, it's considered a tacit relationship. People are definitely still waiting for your action now!"

Shen Hao was a little taken aback when he heard the words: "What action?"

"Wait for your dowry!"
