The master comes down the mountain: I don’t want to be a son-in-law

After Wutongju experienced a brief period of excitement, it became deserted again.

Lin Manqing and Ding Xiang went to college in Qiantang, and Lin Yun also returned to high school. They only had half a day to practice martial arts on weekends.

As for Sister Mei and the others, they were already masters. After receiving the guidance from Li Muchen, they began to cultivate independently.

The business of Jianghu Restaurant has been very prosperous recently, which also gives them less free time.

In Wutong Residence on weekdays, apart from Li Muchen and Bai Jingjing, the only ones left were Xu Guoli and Aunt Qing.

With Xu Guoli as the gatekeeper, Aunt Qing in charge of food and daily living, and Bai Jingjing as the protector, Li Muchen simply started to retreat.

Before going to the capital, he needed to digest the worldly insights he had gained during the recent period.

In addition, you should also refine some medicines and charms to carry with you in case of emergency.

Before retreating, he went to Lin's house again.

It happened that Lang Yuwen was also at the Lin family, and he and Lin Qiu Sheng reported to Li Muchen on the recent business situation.

"The Yuan family has suddenly exerted its strength in the past two days." Lin Qiu Sheng said with concern, "All our lines are in crisis, the capital chain has been broken, and the strategy of demolishing the east wall to repair the west wall cannot be delayed for long. No, You know why, the Yuan family attacked almost regardless of cost, and it seems they want to eat us up in one bite."

Lang Yuwen said: "This just shows that the Yuan family is already in a hurry. As long as we survive this wave, we may be able to survive."

"But how can we survive this wave?" Lin Qiu Sheng said, "The Yuan family's strength is ten times that of ours, and we are isolated by them. Other families and forces either seek refuge with the Yuan family, or watch the fire from the other side. We are now surrounded by enemies in the west. ”

Lang Yuwen's thin body sat at the end of his pen, he held the cigarette between his fingers, put it to his mouth, and took a puff. When smoking, his nose habitually twitches, causing the glasses on the bridge of his nose to move slightly. Behind the lenses are his deep eyes.

"We need to adjust our tactics."

Lang Yuwen blew out a long puff of smoke, and the mist spread, covering his lenses, but it couldn't cover the flashing light in his eyes.

Next, he talked about a series of strategies on business adjustments and capital mobilization, and Lin Qiusheng nodded repeatedly.

Li Muchen doesn't understand business, so it's like listening to a book from heaven.

He doesn't care about this. Anyway, with Lang Yuwen here and Lin Qiusheng who is good at keeping things, he should be the best partner.

Since ancient times, the most important thing for those who have achieved great things is to be able to employ people. They must know people well and assign them well, and they must be trustworthy in employing people.

After Lang Yuwen and Lin Qiu Sheng finished discussing, Li Muchen only asked one question: "How long can it last?"

"If the Yuan family makes no mistakes, it will take at most two months. If the Yuan family makes a mistake, I have a series of counterattack plans that will make them pay a price that will make them regret."

Lang Yuwen pushed up his glasses, with a ruthless look in his eyes, like a general on the battlefield who saw the enemy's flaw.

"Of course," Lang Yuwen changed the topic and looked at Li Muchen, "Without backup, this is not enough to change the final result. A mouse can bite a cat back, but it can never bite the cat to death."

Lin Qiusheng was slightly dissatisfied with Lang Yuwen's comparison of the Lin family to mice, but he could not refute it.

In fact, compared with the Yuan family, the Lin family is like mice fighting cats.

Li Muchen suddenly remembered the cartoon he had watched when he was a child, in which a cat was always chasing a mouse.

At that time, he and his grandfather lived in a garbage compound, and the TV set was also picked up from junk. Because there were no lines, we could only set up an antenna and receive one or two stations vaguely. Later, Dingxiang's father got a pot lid from somewhere and he was able to receive many TV stations at once.

He and Ma Shan often stayed at Ding Xiang's house and watched TV. In order to watch cartoons, they even forgot to eat and were even spanked by their grandfather.

The game of cat and mouse is going on and it will never stop.

He thought again of the demon possessing Yuan Shijie.

Who is the cat and who is the mouse?

After taking a break, Li Muchen came to his senses and said with a smile: "As long as you can hold on for two months. Don't worry, I will take action when I can't hold on."

Lang Yuwen didn't ask any more questions, he just glanced at him with curiosity, expectation and, of course, trust in his eyes.

Although Lin Qiusheng had more doubts, he didn't ask any more questions. After so many things happened, the future of the Lin family seemed to rest on this son-in-law.

He was even a little worried. After all, this son-in-law's title was still empty. He wished that his daughter Lin Manqing and Li Muchen would get married quickly. After all, how binding was the marriage contract? If one day the son-in-law changes his mind, wouldn't the Lin family be in danger?

After symbolically listening to the business report, Li Muchen went to visit Lin Shangyi, the old man of the Lin family.

Lin Shangyi's face is now red and full of energy.

When he met Li Muchen, he repeatedly praised his efficacious medicine.

"Mu Chen, I feel like I'm young again. Even if there is a tiger now, I dare to go up and give it a try! Hahahaha..."

Lin Shangyi smiled heartily.

The Lin family was also very happy.

Only Li Muchen knew that Lin Shangyi's time was running out.

He now relied entirely on the power of Huiyuan Dan and the true energy that Li Muchen had transferred into his body.

Li Muchen promised Lin Shangyi that he would definitely let him see the moment when he and Lin Manqing got engaged.

Yan Huimin cooked herself a light yet hearty meal.

Li Muchen and the Lin family had a lively meal together, and even Lin Yun was called back, feeling a bit of relaxation and joy in the tense atmosphere for days.

During the dinner, Li Muchen found that Chen Wenxue, who liked to join in the fun, was not here, so he asked Lang Yuwen.

Lang Yuwen said that Chen Wenxu had returned to Shenzhou and seemed to be in a hurry when he left. It must have been a family matter.

Li Muchen didn't think much about it, but Lang Yuwen mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally:

"Young master Chen is always joking and joking, but he actually works very hard. I can't help it. Since I'm a concubine, my status in the Chen family is not as good as other young masters."

Li Muchen was stunned.

Concubine?

Doesn't that mean illegitimate child?

Lang Yuwen seemed to see Li Muchen's doubts and said: "Wen Wenxu's mother did not marry into the Chen family. Wen Wenxu grew up with his mother when he was a child, and was later claimed by Mr. Chen. His mother still refuses to enter the Chen family. Door."

Li Muchen finally understood why Chen Wenxue had such an unwillingness to admit defeat, which was completely different from his cynical appearance. It turned out to be because of his mother.

He could imagine the status of a son of a concubine in the Chen family. At any time, he would definitely think in his heart that he could not embarrass his mother.

"Uncle Lang, you are familiar with the Chen family. If there is any trouble with literature, you must tell me."

Li Muchen knew very well what Chen Wenxu was like. He was hip on the outside but proud on the inside. He would not ask for help easily when things happened.

When Lang Yuwen mentioned this to Li Muchen, he naturally hoped that Li Muchen could help Chen Wexue.

The fact that he could follow Chen Wenxue to Hecheng shows that the relationship between them is extraordinary.

Seeing that Li Muchen took the initiative to mention it, Lang Yuwen smiled happily: "It shouldn't be a big deal. If there is anything, I will definitely tell you."

Mrs. Lin Yan Huimin greeted him back and forth. Apart from the old man, the one she took care of the most was Li Muchen.

While feeding Li Muchen vegetables and soup, he kept asking: "Is it delicious?"

"delicious!"

Li Muchen admitted that Mrs. Lin's cooking was really good. Although it was not as good as Master Rong's authentic Beijing chef skills, the exquisite home-cooked dishes had a unique flavor.

When Mrs. Lin saw that Li Muchen liked it, her face burst into laughter.

"You like it. When you and Man Qing get married, I will cook it for you every day!"

Li Muchen felt a little embarrassed because he mentioned the matter of getting married.

Lin Qiusheng reminded: "What you said is that young people have to live a small life. What's wrong with an old woman like you following me around every day?"

Mrs. Lin was dissatisfied and said: "Do you think I am old? Huh! If you dislike me, my son-in-law will not dislike me. From now on, I will live with my daughter and son-in-law, so you can be jealous!"

Her words made the whole family burst into laughter.

Even Li Muchen couldn't help but laugh.
