Marshal Zhang's gaze fell on his two sons, which made them both puzzled.
Zhang Xueyuan, who was familiar with the development, naturally knew that this should be about marrying Yu Fengzhi.
Originally, Zhang Xueyuan did not join the army. Marshal Zhang had decided to let his six sons marry Yu Fengzhi. However, Xueyuan had his own abilities now. Therefore, Marshal Zhang wanted to ask for his two sons 'opinions this time.
"I brought you two here today because I have something to discuss with you. In the early years, I set up a marriage contract with Yu Fengzhi, the eldest daughter of the famous merchant Yu Wendou in Fengtian.”
"At that time, I was in a difficult situation and was indebted to Yu Wendou for taking care of me. He could be said to be my great benefactor.”
"Later, after I made a name for myself, I found Yu Wendou and set up a marriage contract. If both parties were boys or girls, they would become brothers or sworn brothers. If they were a boy and a girl, they would get married.”
Little Zhang Six looked uninterested. As a young man of the new era, he yearned for romantic love and was more opposed to this feudal marriage contract.
As for Zhang Xueyuan, he had a lot to consider.
Yu Wendou's influence in Fengtian was huge. If he married Yu Fengzhi, it would help him in his struggle for power. Most importantly, Yu Fengzhi was also a great beauty.
"Now, you two brothers are not young anymore, so take a look at your own thoughts.”
Marshal Zhang's gaze fell on the two of them.
Zhang Xiaoliu didn't hesitate and said,""Dad, I don't agree to this engagement."
Marshal Zhang looked a little unhappy.
Seeing this, Zhang Xueyuan said to Marshal Zhang,"Dad, since brother doesn't agree, leave it to me. I'll marry Yu Fengzhi.”
Commander Zhang and Little Six Zhang were both shocked. It was beyond Commander Zhang's expectations.
One had to know that in Marshal Zhang's plan, Zhang Xueyuan would directly reject him. In the end, it would be Zhang Xiaoliu.
After all, as a scholar, Zhang Xueyuan's yearning for Western culture was a common characteristic of scholars in this era.
"Xueyuan, have you decided?" Dashuai Zhang said with certainty once again. His eyes widened as he looked at Zhang Xueyuan.
Zhang Xueyuan nodded and said,"Dad, I've thought about it. The Yu family is father's savior and our Zhang family's savior. Xueyuan doesn't want to make things difficult for father, so I agree to this marriage.”
Of course, he didn't say his true thoughts. Some things were enough for him to know later. He didn't need to care too much.
Commander Zhang nodded his head in comfort.
"Yes, Xueyuan, in that case, immediately get someone to prepare a betrothal gift and send you to the Yu family to visit Old Master Yu.”
"Alright, I'll do it. However, father, I want to marry Qing He together. This is my only request. Qing He is already my woman. I will give him an explanation in this life.”Zhang Xueyuan continued to speak to Marshal Zhang, his eyes filled with determination.
Marshal Zhang was a little stunned. He knew this very well. However, he quickly calmed down.
"Yes, this matter can be done, but the first branch must be Yu Fengzhi.”
Zhang Xueyuan was a little conflicted. He also knew that with Qing He's family background, there was no way she could become his wife.
Walking out of the marshal's office, Zhang Xiaoliu called out to Zhang Xueyuan.
"Xueyuan, wait a moment."
"Brother Liu Zi, what's wrong?"
"Xueyuan, were you really thinking just now? Do you really want to win Yu Fengzhi?”Zhang Xiaoliu's gaze fell on his younger brother, and there was still a sense of gratitude in his heart.
If it wasn't for Zhang Xueyuan, this marriage would have been hers.
"Brother, I was wondering what it was. You also know the relationship between the Yu Family and Father. We all know Father's character. We can't make Father angry because of this matter. So, brother, don't worry. I did it willingly."
Zhang Xueyuan looked indifferent, which made Zhang Xiaoliu feel even more touched. He never had such thoughts. He had always wanted to find a woman he liked and spend the rest of his life with her.
"Well, in that case, I will give you my blessings. On your wedding day, I will give you a big gift.”Zhang Xiaoliu said to Zhang Xueyuan.
Zhang Xueyuan smiled indifferently, then turned around and left.
When he returned to his room, Zhang Xueyuan saw Qing He, who was cleaning the room. He didn't know how to explain this matter.
"Young Master, you're back?" Qing He's gaze fell on Zhang Xueyuan as she said gently.
"Yes, I am. Qing He, I have something to tell you.”Zhang Xueyuan pulled Qing He into his arms.
"Young Master, there are still people outside? Don't let others see you." Qing He looked a little shy.
"Whoever wants to watch it, let them watch it." Zhang Xueyuan said casually as he placed his hands on Qing He's waist.
"Qing He, today, father has arranged a marriage for me. The other party is Yu Fengzhi of the Yu family. However, I have discussed with father that we will marry you when the time comes. However, I can only let you suffer and be the wife of the second branch.”
Zhang Xueyuan's gaze fell on Qing He, and his face was filled with apology.
Qing He's small face was shy, but her heart was unusually touched, and her eyes gradually turned red.
"Qing He is willing to follow Young Master for the rest of her life, even if she doesn't have any status.”
With that, tears fell from the corners of Qing He's eyes.
"Qing He, no matter what the result is, you will always be my woman. I will protect you for the rest of your life."
Zhang Xueyuan expressed his true thoughts, which made Qing He very touched.
"Young Master. When will Young Master go to the Yu Family?”Qing He said weakly.
"We'll leave tomorrow. Time is a little tight.”Zhang Xueyuan said helplessly.
Qing He's expression was a little gloomy. She did not expect him to be so anxious.
Moments later. Zhang Xueyuan carried Qing He to his bed.
The next morning, Zhang Xueyuan got up from his bed and looked at the tired Qing He. He couldn't bear to wake him up.
However, a small movement still woke Qing He up.
"Young Master, let Qing He help Young Master get up.”Qing He said to Zhang Xueyuan, her gaze a little shy.
Yesterday, Zhang Xueyuan had told Qing He that he was going to the Yu Family today.
This trip might last for ten days to half a month. At night, Qing He could not help but cry again.
Dressed neatly, she walked out of the room. The morning sun shone on her body, making her feel warm.
Today was the day he would go to the Yu Family. Commander Zhang had already made the arrangements last night.
Wu Junsheng would accompany him to the Yu family.
The betrothal gifts and gifts prepared for the Yu family were placed at the entrance of the marshal's residence, and the guards were moving them into the carriage.
In the marshal's office, Zhang Xueyuan saw Wu Junsheng and Zhang Xiaoliu.
