who and the rivers and lakes

After Zhan Zhao was seated, watching the lively scene, although he had something on his mind, he had to suppress it temporarily and raised his glass to drink.

Holding the jug in one hand, Zhu Tianwei was attentively persuading him to drink while observing Zhan Zhao's calm expression. Even though he still couldn't guess his reason for coming, he let go of his hanging heart.

After drinking a few more glasses of wine, Zhu Tianwei's handsome face was even more red, and he shouted for blessings to add wine and food.

The old butler promised with a blessing, turned and walked out of the hall, but returned quickly, walked to Zhu Tianwei's side in a hurry, and whispered a few times.

Zhu Tianwei's hand holding the wine glass stopped in mid-air, his brows frowned, and the smile on his face disappeared completely. For a moment, he showed a bit of ferocity, but in a blink of an eye, he returned to his previous smile, but said coldly: "Let him in .”

The old housekeeper Fu stood still, opened his mouth to speak, turned his eyes to Zhan Zhao, but closed his mouth again, said yes respectfully, turned and went out again.

A moment later, there was a sound of rolling wheels from the promenade outside the door, and a wooden wheelchair turned out.

Sitting obliquely on the wooden wheelchair was a man in his early twenties, with a pale complexion, a round head, and prominent forehead, but his body was disproportionately short and thin. , but his eyes were shy and timid, and he deliberately avoided them, not daring to look at people.

Behind the wheelchair was a little book boy named Lianji, thin and thin, wrapped in a short shirt that was washed white, as if his body hadn't grown yet.His head was bowed deeply all the time, his hair was disheveled, covering his eyebrows, and only his pale complexion and pointed chin were exposed between the scattered hair.

The two masters and servants appeared in the hall one after the other, completely out of tune with the crowds of visitors and the lively atmosphere. People saw it, and they couldn't help feeling disgusted while feeling pity in their hearts.Everyone in the world loves to be gorgeous and decent, who would want to see such a humble and pitiful person?

Seeing the wheelchair, although he tried his best to restrain himself, Zhu Tianwei still showed strong disgust and hatred on his face. It seemed that just one more look at the boy in the wheelchair would make him deeply ashamed and unbearable.

Not only Zhu Tianwei, but the Zhu Bai family sitting at the main table also showed contempt and disdain.

Although Bai Xinyu also had disgust in his eyes, he was not lacking in sympathy, and whispered to himself, "He's here after all."

Ding Yuehua asked in a low voice, puzzled: "Who is this person?"

"The second young master of the Zhu family, Zhu Tianxiang. He seldom shows up, so you haven't seen him." Bai Xinyu lowered his voice, as if he was worried that just saying this name would arouse great resentment in people's hearts. .

Ding Yuehua was taken aback. He looked at the ugly boy in the wheelchair, then at the tall and imposing Zhu Tianwei, and couldn't help but look up at the grand ancestors of the Zhu family in the painting on the wall. He never thought that this weak and ugly boy would They are descendants of the Zhu family.

Zhu Tianwei is tall and handsome, with a superhuman spirit, and is also shrewd and capable. In his hands, Zhujiazhuang has been managed in a splendid manner. Not only has Zhu's family's 48-style whirlwind Ruyi knife technique been carried forward, it has become famous in the martial arts world, and even in terms of business and wealth, it is far ahead of the predecessors. .

But look at Zhu Tianxiang, the second young master of the Zhu family, with an ugly face, slender limbs, a trance, and a promise.Even Lianji, the little book boy following behind him, was also thin and pale. He buried his head deeply from beginning to end, not daring to look at anyone.

It seems that the second young master of Zhu's family not only seldom shows up, but is also rarely mentioned by people in Zhu's village, so although Ding Yuehua has been here for a long time, it is the first time today that he knows that Zhu Tianwei has such a brother .

After Ding Yuehua was amazed, she looked around with big eyes, and gradually showed more sympathy when she looked at Zhu Tianxiang. Her heart was full of pity for his unfortunate situation, and at the same time, she was very dissatisfied with the bad attitude of Zhu Tianwei and others.

As soon as Zhu Tianxiang's master and servant appeared, there seemed to be a strange smell mixed into the delicious dishes and wine in the hall, which made people feel uncomfortable and unspeakable.The guests in this hall saw Zhu Tianxiang appearing, some of them knew the inside story, knew that the second young master was born with deficiencies, and the day after tomorrow he was neglected and rejected by his parents and elder brothers, gradually they started to discuss and spread the word.Some mature and honest people turned their heads and pretended not to be interested, while some people who were already jealous of Zhu's family's prestige and wealth showed contemptuous smiles on their lips, as if to say, No matter how many generations of talents in your family, you are proud and arrogant, and you will give birth to such useless and incompetent children.

Zhan Zhao watched from the sidelines with a calm face and soft eyes.In fact, who can know the pain in his heart?He is not afraid of power, nor does he despise the weak. He has always believed that everyone in this world should have the equal right to live, regardless of whether he is ugly or beautiful, or whether he is intelligent or not.But in fact, there are all kinds of inequality and bullying in this world.What could be more tragic than cannibalism?Between people, once there is a difference between strong and weak, once there is a difference between good and bad, even two people who are as close as brothers can loathe and hate, like water and fire are incompatible.

Hearing the buzzing discussions in the hall, Zhu Tianwei held back the annoyance and anger in his heart. He had 1 regrets in his stomach. If he had known this, he should have made a decisive decision just now, and it would have been fine not to allow Zhu Tianxiang to enter the hall.But now that he was at the table, he could no longer be driven away under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Although Zhu Tianxiang is in a wheelchair, he is not physically disabled, but weak and unable to stand and walk for a long time.He timidly called Big Brother first, lowered his eyelids, helped the book boy Lianji's hand, stood up with difficulty, and sat down at the end of the main table.

When he finally sat down, he was gasping for breath. It seemed that these movements were easy for ordinary people, but they were extremely difficult for him.

After he sat down, he felt that there were countless pairs of eyes staring at him, especially Zhu Tianwei's eyes on the opposite side. His eyes were like knives and swords, piercing ruthlessly, as if he wanted to poke a few big holes in his body to relieve his hatred.He was even more flustered, not sure if it was proper etiquette, so he hurriedly said a few words of happy birthday wishes, muttering, but no one could hear him clearly.

Zhu Tianwei only felt anger rising, and couldn't help but snorted heavily.

This hum, like a thunderclap, rang in Zhu Tianxiang's ear.He shook his hand, and the chopsticks he just picked up fell to the ground with a clatter.

Zhu Tianwei was furious, he put the wine glass in his hand heavily on the table, glared at Zhu Tianxiang, wishing he could just raise his hand and knock him into the ground, and just disappear from the world.

The servants and maidservants serving at the table all looked at the face of the master and acted. At this moment, they turned their faces away and pretended that nothing happened.As for Zhu Tianxiang's dropped chopsticks, no one stepped forward to pick them up, and no one wanted to exchange for another pair of clean ones.

Lian Ji stood behind Zhu Tianxiang, hunched over, like a little turtle hiding in its shell, and didn't listen or move.

The table was silent for a while, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. Some were unwilling to interfere, and some wanted to help, but didn't know what to do.

Bai Qingyun, who had been silently sitting in the chair with her head down, suddenly jumped up, pointed at Zhu Tianxiang, and screamed: "It's you again, it's you again, why did you do this? Why? You did it on purpose, you wanted to kill everyone Only people are happy, aren't they? Are they?"

There was no blood on her face, a strand of hair fell on her forehead, her facial features were distorted, her voice was extremely shrill and piercing, her eyes were staring straight and wildly.

When the incident happened suddenly, everyone was shocked. All their movements seemed to freeze suddenly, only pairs of eyes looked around in horror.

At that moment, even the candlelight seemed to be dimmed, and the shadows shook, reflecting strange expressions on everyone's faces, and the joyous hall suddenly became gloomy and frightening.

It took Ding Yuehua a while to recover. He looked at Zhan Zhao first, and saw that there was confusion in his bright eyes, then turned to look at Bai Xinyu, thinking that she would get up to comfort and take care of her own sister.Unexpectedly, Bai Xinyu stared at the bowls and chopsticks on the table, remained silent and expressionless, as if he had long been familiar with such things.

Bai Qingyun burst into tears like rain, looking crazy, kept screaming, repeating just a few words.

Zhu Tianwei stared at Zhu Tianxiang, his eyes seemed to spew fire, but at the same time, he turned his face and shouted to Bai Qingyun in a deep voice: "Hurry up and shut up!"

Bai Qingyun's body trembled violently, as if someone had suddenly strangled her neck. There were a few gurgles in her throat, but then there was no sound at all.She looked around, as if she had just woken up from a nightmare and realized where she was, her eyes were no longer frantic, but her face was paler, and she flushed with shame because she realized her gaffe just now.She sat down slowly, pretended to be brave enough to look at Zhu Tianwei, then quickly lowered her head, with a flustered expression, suppressing the tears in her eyes, and huddled into a ball in the chair.

Who would have thought that there would be such an unknown family affair in this glamorous Zhujiazhuang?

Only then did Ding Yuehua truly understand why Bai Xinyu sighed so much for her sister earlier.She turned her head and saw that Bai Xinyu's beautiful eyes were full of sadness and regret, but the older brother Bai Qingfeng was still indifferent and unmoved.

Ding Yuehua looked at Zhu Tianxiang next to him again, feeling more and more pitiful for him, thinking that for a person like him, in such a family, with such an elder brother, life must be difficult.She didn't care what the master thought, she left her seat and bent down, picked up the dropped chopsticks, handed them to a maidservant behind her, and said, "These chopsticks are dirty, get another pair."

Although the maid took the chopsticks, she didn't move, and looked at the old housekeeper for blessing.Blessing didn't speak for now, just looked at Zhu Tianwei.

Zhu Tianwei finally calmed down, nodded with a sullen face.

Zhu Tianxiang has a pair of new chopsticks, but he dare not use them, for fear that if he makes a move, he will cause trouble again.Like Bai Qingyun sitting on the other side, he shrank in the chair, not daring to move.When he thought no one was paying attention, he turned his face secretly and glanced at Ding Yuehua, his eyes were full of gratitude, and also contained a bit of youthful love and appreciation.

Zhu Tianwei looked at all the guests in the hall, and then at Zhan Zhao, the haze in his eyes was still there, but there was a smile on his face, and he raised his glass again to persuade him to drink.After a while, he has regained his former enthusiasm and boldness, he can speak and laugh freely, and he has become that Zhu Tianwei who is a hero in the world again.
