Beloved at the Door - Chapter 21.5
Di Jing was not joking, because Pan Zeming came to visit the prison again, and this order was inviolable, so Shangguan Yan wouldn’t go back to the prison.
Pan Zeming is the son of the Pan family, and the relationship between the two families can be traced back to when Mrs. Pan and Mrs. Shangguan were still unmarried girls. At that time, they had handkerchiefs, and they often walked around each other on weekdays.
In terms of family history, although Shangguan’s family is an imperial merchant, Shangguan’s wife understands that for a woman to live a happy life, the character of her husband is more important than that of a family.
The Pan family opened a dyeing cloth shop. Although the business was not as large as the official business, it was better in honesty and good reputation. His son, Pan Zeming, was a scholar, gentle, upright and respectful. He was also an honest person, but unfortunately he was not good at business. The Pan family hopes to marry a daughter-in-law who understands business, and in the future hand over the business to the daughter-in-law to help take care of.
Shangguan Yan’s business ability is the ideal candidate for a wife.
Master Shangguan has been rolling in the mall for many years, and he often deals with officials. He sees many people of all kinds, and he can see through the insidiousness and cunning. He has discussed with his wife that with his daughter’s temperament, he is not suitable for marrying into an official family. Although they believe that their daughters will never suffer a loss when they marry into an official house, there are countless private affairs in the back homes of large families, and three wives and four concubines are commonplace.
Instead of letting her marry her daughter in a deep house compound with many rules and complicated rules, it is better to let her marry an aunt who is easy to get along with, and the family has a small population. The husband is a family that can make her daughter round and squeeze, and Pan Zeming, the first-in-law of the Pan family, is such a person. , The most important thing is that his character is approved by the master of Shangguan.
If her daughter marries him, she can continue to do her own business in the future.
It’s so good for the couple to live innocently, have a few children, and live their lives peacefully and happily. Therefore, when Yan’er was seventeen years old, the wife of Shangguan visited Pan’s family and learned that Pan’s family also liked Yan’er. What is important is that Pan Zeming himself was willing and promised to only marry a wife and not take a concubine.
For Shangguan Yan, this Pan Zeming is a good husband. She has known Pan Zeming since she was a child, and she also thinks that he has a good temper. Since her parents like it, she agrees. Anyway, who is not to marry? The one who wants to live a lifetime must be someone she can hold down, and she must not object to her doing business and catching bad people.
Since the two families were both interested, they began to consider whether they should find a date to place an order. Unexpectedly, the ancestor of the Pan family passed away within a few days. At this time, it was inconvenient to discuss the engagement, so Shangguan Yan took the lead and waited until the filial piety expired. Regarding marriage, she still wants to spend a few more years at ease anyway, so the marriage was put on hold, and she hasn’t married yet at the age of twenty.
Shangguan Yan understood that she had to hide from Pan Zeming that she hadn’t been in jail, so she had to go back to the jail and behave. The question is how can she see people with this face now? Maybe no man would want to marry such an ugly daughter-in-law, right? If he repents and changes his mind, she won’t blame him. After all, the two families have not yet hired to change posts, and the Pan family still has the opportunity to choose. She is also a businessman who sees everything thoroughly and is open-minded by nature.
Moreover, for her, she has more affection for Pan Zeming’s brothers and sisters than for men and women. If he regrets it, she won’t blame him.
Sure enough, when Pan Zeming saw her, the whole person was frightened, but the reaction that followed was unexpected.
“Ayan, you, don’t worry, no matter what you become, I will wait for you.” Pan Zeming assured her while crying, holding her hand.
Now it was Shangguan Yan’s turn, dumbfounded, and couldn’t help asking in surprise, “I’m so ugly, would you like to marry me?”
“Although I am only a scholar, Pan Zeming is also familiar with sages and sages. I should stand upright and keep my promises. Since I have promised to marry you, I will never break my word.” He spoke uprightly and firmly.
Hearing what he said, Shangguan Yan was really moved, but he seemed to understand something. It turned out that he was willing to marry her to keep his promise when he saw her look like this… Well, what she was after was his honesty and integrity. The backbone of being a scholar.
Shangguan Yan is a businessman with a careful temperament. The background and appearance of her husband have never been her priority. She has been a man for many years and has been socializing and socializing outside, and she can see more of the fancy of men.
The husband she wants does not necessarily have to be as shrewd and powerful as her father, but she must marry only one woman in his life like her father, and he must be honest, not going to the brothel, and only being good to her.
“Pan Lang…” Pan Zeming thought that her face was tortured in jail, and she didn’t explain it. She just shook his hand back and stared at him. Suddenly she felt that she had picked up the treasure. Sure enough, a man can’t just look at her appearance. Look loyal!
And Di Jing was not the only one who was surprised by Pan Zeming’s “loyalty”.
When the female guard reported the situation in the prison to Di Jing, his face was calm, his emotions and anger were invisible, but he said indifferently, “I see, go on.”
“Yes.” When the female guard left, Di Jing’s face immediately became serious, and she couldn’t help rubbing her temples.
Unexpectedly, he is not the only one in this world who doesn’t care about the appearance of his sweetheart, and so is Pan Zeming. Obviously, this rival is a person of the most affectionate and sexual. This person has no shortcomings. Correctly, and most importantly, he promised to only marry a wife but not a concubine.
This rare good man just appeared beside Shangguan Yan.
Di Jing is now a big head. The only thing he has won against Pan Zeming is his wealth and power, but obviously, this advantage is what Shangguan Yan does not care about.
He thought that Pan Zeming would not pose a threat, but it turned out that he underestimated the enemy.
He got up and came to the window, looking in the direction of the prison, the palm behind him was slightly tightened, he would not give up!
He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes shot bright and the corners of his lips were slightly hooked.
He wants to **** her over, and he can’t **** her out, he can only **** it secretly, and he can’t use disgraceful means. This is against his vigor and character. For this alone, he must never lose to Pan Zeming, otherwise he will be defeated in the future. Will not look up in front of her.
