Zi Yuan was very discerning and immediately served dried fruits, snacks and tea, and then left the space for her young lady and Mr. Zhang.
"Lianyi, what do you want to tell me?"
Zhang Xuetao asked with a smile.
"My father discussed with me and said that after I get engaged to you, he will send me to study at a bridal school in country Y to learn how to be a qualified housekeeper, and he will marry you when I return from my studies.
I was reluctant at first. I didn’t want to be separated from you for so long, but my father said that after the two of us got engaged, there would definitely be many forces who couldn’t stand it and would try every means to break us up.
I can still handle the letter. If these people don't have a bottom line to be tough, I, a weak woman, will be in danger. The most important thing is that it will hinder you. I simply avoid it for the time being, which will allow you to establish prestige in front of Duan Jiajun. What do you think? ”
Zhang Xuetao was a little surprised that Duan Lianyi said this to him, but if you think about it, you can understand that this is a kind of protection for his daughter by Marshal Duan. After all, Xia Kingdom is still in chaos and has not seen it. It was so peaceful when he arrived.
After thinking about this, he smiled and said:
"Uncle is also doing it for our own good. I have no problem. It's just hard for you to study alone. If I had If I get a chance, I'll come over and see you. "
"This is what you said, don't go back on it! But I am not ignorant. I know that you men put your career first. I will write to you often, but you must reply to me! ”
"Of course, you are my fiancée!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? We haven't held an engagement ceremony yet! I'm not your fiancée yet!"
Ripple pretended to be shy. He glared at Zhang Xuetao and said.
Then her face turned red, but her sparkling eyes were full of expectation, which made Zhang Xuetao feel much better instantly.
When Zhang Xuetao and his father got in the car back to their residence, he relayed Lianyi's words to Zhang Fenglin.
Zhang Fenglin was not surprised at all. He nodded in approval and said:
"Taoer, you did a good job. Duan Zongqing was injured in the war. He will only have such a daughter in this life. As long as you love and respect him enough, Daughter, Lianyi is on your side again, and I don’t have to worry about him not handing over his power to you.
I also understand why he did this. After you got engaged, we became allies, and what will happen next. Some big moves are just for training and training you, allowing you to establish enough prestige on both sides.
But she is not suitable to stay in the country as a girl, so she will be easily targeted by those who are interested. Once she falls into these people. In their hands, they will threaten Duan Zongqing with ripples.
Duan Zongqing will do anything for his daughter. It seems that he has not even married a wife in these years because he is afraid that his daughter will be wronged. At that time, we will be very passive. , it would be better for both families to send her out.
I will tell Duan Zongqing about this tomorrow. Firstly, it will show that we respect their family's decision, and secondly, it will also show that we have no intention of taking advantage of his daughter. "
Zhang Fenglin is an old fox, and he immediately figured out the key point.
"Father, I understand. I usually pay attention to propriety when getting along with Lianyi, and I will never be rude to her. She is now I want to be my good wife. "
On this point, Zhang Xuetao is quite confident.
"Okay, it's my Zhang Fenglin's seed, keep it up. ”
Zhang Dashuai was extremely satisfied with his son.
The heads of the Duan and Zhang families met and agreed on the engagement date. The next step was to prepare for the ceremony and invite prominent people in NN City, so the engagement date was set for ten days.
The time was set in a hurry, but Zhang Fenglin could not leave the north where he was in charge for a long time. Duan Zongqing also expressed his understanding, so after the date was set, everyone was busy and Lianyi was also busy trying on dresses. , so I haven’t met Zhang Xuetao recently.
That night, Yun Siyu picked the right time, carried a portable medicine box, and told the nurse on duty at the mission hospital that she was going to change the dressing for a patient who looked down on the doctor, and would be back later. Because she often does this, and the medical supplies she uses are bought with her own money, and it can also improve the reputation of the church hospital, so the doctors in the hospital are very supportive. After all, with a better reputation, more people will come to see the doctor. .
"Siyu, watch the time carefully and don't be too late. Those alleys are not safe at night."
The nurse on duty reminded kindly.
"Thank you for the reminder. I'm familiar with the place. I won't delay it too late."
After saying that, he left with the medicine box on his arm.
The reason why Yun Siyu went out at this time was because she had read a record of a major event, which was about Zhang Xuetao, the founding father.
Three days before his engagement to Duan Lianyi, he was assassinated by a foreign force. The incident took place near Nanning Port. It was a doctor who visited the hospital who saved the injured him. Otherwise, there would be no future father of the nation.
Because the exact date of the engagement had been published in the Nanning newspaper, she worked backwards to find out the specific time and the location of the incident. She decided to take a desperate risk and cut off the doctor Hu's credit, so that The bond between the two is deeper, and with the help of life-saving grace, they can be more bright when they get along in the future.
After arriving at Nanning Port, Yun Siyu found a place with a wider view, and then began to wait and see.
An hour later, Yun Siyu vaguely heard gunfire. Although it was intermittent, it immediately caught her attention. She looked around to determine the source of the gunfire.
The moon was very bright that night, lighting up the entire port, but it was obscured by passing dark clouds from time to time, so the entire Nanning Port flickered. After a while, thunder and lightning started, and it seemed like it was going to rain. .
With the help of the moonlight, Yun Siyu discovered where Zhang Xuetao and his party were hiding, and there were obviously more people assassinating him than those protecting him. Within a moment, two more people fell.
Yun Siyu gritted her teeth. She did not rush over immediately. She used her bare hands and did not want to die before she left the attack. She did not wait until she was sure that everyone around Zhang Xuetao had fallen and he himself was shot. , she just started to act.
At the same time, raindrops fell from the sky. In less than five minutes, it turned from light rain to moderate rain, washing the scene and temporarily hiding Zhang Xuetao's traces.
Yun Siyu took a shortcut and stopped Zhang Xuetao who was injured and running away in advance.
Because of the heavy rain, Zhang Xuetao did not recognize Yun Siyu immediately and directly put a gun to her head.
"Master Zhang, it's me! Siyu!"
Hearing the familiar voice, Zhang Xuetao did not relax, but asked:
"Why are you here?"
< br>"I came to change a patient's dressing and wasted time. I was about to go back when I heard gunshots here. I was worried, so I came over to take a look and found out it was you."
Yun Siyu As he spoke, he patted the medicine box on his body, and then exclaimed in a low voice:
"You are injured!"
Zhang Xuetao put down his pistol and was about to speak when suddenly a voice came from not far behind him:
"Hurry up and chase him! He is the only one left, don't let him Run away!”
“Here! Over here!”
At that time, Yun Siyu took Zhang Xuetao and hid in an alley.
