Chapter 231 The Cao family quarreled over breaking off the engagement
Not long after, the news spread in Xuzhou City that Lu Bu failed to propose marriage to Zuo's family and was rejected by Zuo Jiao face to face.
It has become a topic of conversation among people in the streets and alleys after dinner, and everyone is a little ridiculed.
"I heard that Lu Bu failed to propose marriage to Zuo's family."
"Lu Bu is the new generation master of Xuzhou. I wonder why the Zuo family didn't agree."
"Hmph, whether Lu Bu, the new master of Xuzhou, can stand firm depends on the support of the powerful family."
"Haha, the most embarrassing thing for Lu Bu this time is that he, the governor of Xuzhou, was rejected by a little girl in person. It's so embarrassing and humiliating."
This incident not only affected Lu Bu's reputation, but also reduced the prestige he had finally established in Xuzhou.
Moreover, it almost made the Cao family regret their marriage.
When Mrs. Cao heard the news, she immediately became furious, ran home quickly, and had a direct quarrel with Cao Bao.
At that time, Lao Cao was drinking tea and listening to ditty.
Mrs. Cao was like a female leopard. She came into the room and snatched his tea cup away, saying angrily.
"Old Cao, listen to what is said outside. The Zuo Rong family will not marry their sister to Lu Bu, but to marry Liu Bei.
Why don't you listen to me?Just say stubborn. "
Cao Bao: "I think Lu Bu is pretty good. Moreover, Chen Deng and his son have become Lu Bu's subordinates. Doesn't that prove that he is great?"
It seemed that she didn't hear what Cao Bao said at all, Mrs. Cao still muttered angrily.
"People say Lu Bu is bad, why don't you listen?
Lingling is my biological daughter, my sweetheart. If Lu Bu fails and runs away in two days, her life will be ruined. "
"Lu Bu cannot fail, he can even defeat Cao Cao."
Mrs. Cao was shocked: "What? He also beat Cao Cao.
Then he must have violent tendencies. What if he hits our daughter again in the future? "
Cao Bao swallowed speechlessly and patiently tried to reason with his wife.
"He was fighting Cao Cao. Cao Cao was a bad guy. This proves that Lu Bu is capable. What does it have to do with his tendency to violence?"
Not listening to anything, Mrs. Cao's face turned red with anger and she pinched her waist with both hands, as if she was being taken advantage of.
“I don’t care, if you hit someone, you have a violent tendency.
Moreover, I saw Lu Bu last time when he came to propose marriage. He was tall and handsome. Anyone who is too handsome is unreliable. "
Cao Bao angrily spoke faster: "Cao Cao is an enemy, an enemy. Doesn't Lu Bu's running away prove his ability?"
"Don't tell me about your men, do you think you are capable? How can I, a woman, understand this?
I just said that Lu Bu’s character is not good..."
Seeing his daughter-in-law messing around and arguing with each other, Cao Bao flew into a rage, stared at her and shouted.
"Where did you hear that? Why is Lu Bu's character so bad again?"
Staring at Cao Bao angrily, Mrs. Cao said in a sharp voice: "Don't be angry, don't be angry.
You usually get angry when discussing problems calmly. Can getting angry solve the problem? "
After hearing what Mrs. Cao said, Cao Bao's chest was about to explode with anger. His hands were dancing in the air in anger, and soon he kicked the table away.
Bang.
The table shattered.
Mrs. Cao was so frightened that she started to cry. While crying, she scolded Cao Bao aggrievedly.
From a certain sentence he said on the wedding night, he kept scolding her till yesterday when Cao Bao went to bed without washing his feet.
The servants didn't dare to come to persuade him, so they could only stand aside with trepidation.
After a prominent person from the Cao family came to persuade her, Mrs. Cao stopped crying. If it was a normal quarrel, she would be fine after crying.
Today, when it comes to Cao Xiaoling's marriage, Mrs. Cao still feels awkward. Seeing that her husband's mood has become more stable, she mumbles again.
"If that doesn't work, let's break off the engagement to Lu Bu."
Angrily, Cao Bao turned his hands behind his back, his face was livid, he was stunned for a moment, and he seemed to have made a big decision with a wave of his hand.
"Both of us don't want to make a decision. We just call my daughter over. She can choose whoever she wants, okay?"
Mrs. Cao: "Okay."
After waiting for a while, Cao Xiaoling was called over. Her big, watery eyes looked at her mother in confusion, then she turned around and pouted at Cao Bao.
"Father, mother is used to being unreasonable and making trouble. Why did she make her cry again this time?"
The onlookers couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.
It seems that Mrs. Cao's usual quarrels are unreasonable.
Just as Cao Bao was about to speak, Mrs. Cao was worried that he kept praising Lu Bu, so she hurriedly came over and held Cao Xiaoling's hand affectionately.
"Son, my mother is not unreasonable this time. I quarreled with your father because of your lifelong event.
You are still young and ignorant.
I went out to find out for my mother that Lu Bu has violent tendencies..."
Cao Bao interrupted: "Don't talk nonsense, I don't have any violent tendencies."
"Okay, okay, I get it."
Giving Cao Bao a blank look, Mrs. Cao continued.
"Have you heard of Liu Bei? He is a descendant of Prince Jing of Zhongshan and a clan member of the Han Dynasty.
The most important thing is that he has big ears and long arms, which are blessings.
Good girl, listen to your mother and let’s marry Liu Bei, okay? "
After hearing her mother's words, Cao Xiaoling's eyes were obviously confused. She looked at everyone in the hall and said timidly: "What about father's opinion?"
"I propose to choose Lu Bu because..."
Clearing his throat, Cao Bao wanted to praise his players, but unfortunately Mrs. Cao interrupted with a foul.
"Why? Daughter, mother will not harm you, Liu Bei is benevolent and righteous."
Pursing her lips, Cao Xiaoling felt a little nervous as everyone looked at her expectantly.
Ever since she met the tall and handsome Lu Bu, especially when she hugged him, she had always had an inexplicable feeling in Cao Xiaoling's heart.
To be honest, Cao Xiaoling usually tossed and turned at night these days and couldn't sleep. When he closed his eyes, he looked like a tall and mighty figure.
At night, Cao Xiaoling's snow-white thighs felt so hot thinking about them that she had no choice but to stretch them out to dry them.
Seeing that her daughter remained silent, Mrs. Cao poked her anxiously: "Speak to Liu Bei quickly."
Her little feet twisted on the ground, and Cao Xiaoling's voice was like a mosquito humming: "Huh? Actually, I actually want to choose Lu Bu."
……
These words soon reached Lu Bu's ears through Er Pang.
"Okay, this is a good girl." After receiving this news, Lu Bu felt indescribably happy.
He secretly decided that whether it was his wife or his concubine, as long as they were his women, he would treat them wholeheartedly.
Ye Yun: "Sir, we still have to find a way to marry into the Mi family.
The largest family in Xuzhou is none other than the Donghai Mi family.They have a lot of land and their business network covers the whole country.
He has tens of thousands of slaves, even more than some warlords.
In front of the Donghai Mi family, the Cao Bao family and the Zuo Rong family are not enough. "
Lu Bu looked mysterious.
"Haha, I have already prepared it, and it will be effective soon."
