Relief

Chapter 24

Although Tang Haifeng was the guest of Liang's family, he seemed to be quite afraid of Chen Rong, with a gloomy face.

Chen Rong looked around the private room, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, especially paid more attention to Feng Zhichang, turned his head and said to the guards: "This trip is just to invite the boss to the mansion, what are you delaying here? Are you being used as swords by others?"

Tang Haifeng really couldn't hold his face anymore.

Xie Zhixu finally understood, co-authoring this is an act of pretense.

"Let's go." Chen Rong frowned, and once again glanced at Feng Zhichang with probing eyes, facing the messy meal messed up by Liang's guards, he led them away from the second floor without a word of apology.

I don't know who this Chen Rong is. On the surface, he is just Liang Ting's musician, but his airs are quite high, and his whole body is impressive. Pride is engraved in the bone marrow and manifested in words and deeds.

"Those who have their hands on their lives will never be able to get away with it. I know that, we will wait and see."

Tang Haifeng left behind these words and left.

Yue Guanshan leaned against the window lattice and watched the audience with great interest: "Is this the end of the show?"

After the play was over, Feng Zhichang had finished eating, and there were still a variety of dishes, each dish was lightly tasted, and Liu Liu, who had a small stomach and a big stomach, cleaned up the mess.

Feng Zhichang seems to be in a bad mood tonight, although he has been putting on a dead face, but Xie Zhixu just has a feeling, as if the black-scaled poisonous snake hidden in his sleeve opened its eyes full of resentment, making people He shuddered when he took a step closer.

Liu Liu: "Fifth brother, thank you very much today. My second brother and I are leaving first."

Feng Zhichang's wheelchair was facing Xie Zhixu.

Xie Zhixu stood where he was, really couldn't think of any topic to strike up a conversation with: "Okay, uh... hey wait, that... Liu Liu, do you have any other plans for tonight?"

puff--

He heard Yue Guanshan covering his mouth behind his back and sniggering, and he couldn't help but wonder if it was a bit abrupt to ask the girl.

Liu Liuxing's eyes turned sharply, she knew what he meant, she didn't know what instructions she had received, and said with a smile: "No, I'm at the inn tonight, fifth brother can come to me if you have anything to do."

"Ah, good good!"

Yue Guanshan suppressed a smile and put his arms on Xie Zhixu's shoulder: "It's a little beauty~ It turns out that the hero is here to save the beauty. You should have said it earlier, my brother can make you look more handsome."

"Fuck you," Xie Zhixuan shook his shoulders and shook his hand, "Let's go back to the inn too, do you have anything else to do?"

"It's gone, it's gone, poof——I want to reserve an audience seat, and I'll wait to watch the show tonight hahahahaha, don't hit me!"

Halfway through the way back, the two of them remembered that they forgot something on the street just now.

What is it?

Can't remember, forget it.

Xie Zhixu walked into the gate of Fuyunju with a red bean lard cake bought from the famous century-old Jinzi cake shop in Suzhou City. The warm oily paper bag was wrapped in the heart, and the smell could make people feel The happiness of sweet beans full of teeth and lard not greasy.

When he entered the door, he bumped into a person, Wu Li, with disheveled clothes and a crooked hair crown, his handsome face was reduced, looking pitiful and embarrassing.

"Hey, senior brother, what's the matter with you?" Xie Zhixu asked strangely seeing his senior brother's downcast appearance that he hadn't seen in ten years.

Wu Li held on to the door frame as if he was struggling, his whole body was full of self-abandonment, and a golden star appeared in front of his eyes: "I didn't expect that I am the third disciple of Qiongshan Mountain, handsome and handsome, kind and helpful every day, humble and polite, generous and forbearing, smart and confused for a while. -"

Xie Zhixu listened to him boasting for a long time: "..."

"There will be a day when I will be forced to sell myself!!"

"It's all you bastard! You and Yue Guanshan broke your promise and left me alone in the restaurant! You don't even pay the bill! I can't even get a copper coin out of my body. I'm poorer than the little girl who sells fruit. !"

In the room, Wu Li complained with snot and tears.

Yue Guanshan and Xie Zhixu scratched their heads in embarrassment.

"Ahaha, I remembered, I remembered, I mean I forgot something."

"No, it's obviously what I said."

"I said it!"

"I said!"

Wu Li lost his focus: "Seeing that I have no money to pay the bill, the manager of the restaurant... actually said——!"

"If you don't have money, you can pay for meat|hehehehehehe..."

"What!" Yue Guanshan rose up against the crime, furious, "That guy is so rude, even if he has no money, he can't force someone into prostitution! Xiao Wu, brother, I'm going to punish that hooligan and return your innocence!"

Wu Li said with a cold face: "No need. He made me stand outside the restaurant for an hour, and got a total of six tables of guests. He paid back ten times the price of the meal, and the two have been settled."

The sweet and soft red bean lard cake was placed on the table, and Wu Li reached out to open the oil paper bag: "I can eat casually for dinner, and let me fill my stomach."

Xie Zhixu pounced to protect the food, and stared at Wu Li's unbelievable grief and explained: "Wait a minute, senior brother, this is actually bought to eat when listening to stories at night."

Liu Liu opened the door for them, and was taken aback: "So many people?"

Wu Li: "Good evening, Liu Liuer."

Yueguanshan: "Meet you again, little beauty~"

Xie Zhixu held the oiled paper bag and tried his best to block in front of the two: "I didn't shake the tail clean, I'm sorry!"

The pastry is no longer as hot as it was just out of the oven, but the mottled and soaked oil stains are still vaguely reminiscent of delicious memories such as melting in the mouth and leaving a fragrance on the lips and teeth.

Liu Liu smiled and said, "Fifth Brother, you've worked hard, did you buy it from the Jinzi Cake Shop? Second Brother has always wanted to eat it, but unfortunately there are too many people waiting in line."

"Where is it, I also want to thank my sister for her guidance. It is our duty as a junior to think what the senior brother thinks."

Liu Liu stepped aside to open the door of the room and let them in.

The sun is getting dusky, the purple curtain outside the window, the red clouds and the orange river gradually fade into a bright and clear color, the tired birds from all over the world return to their nests and land among the branches of weeping poplars, a pot of tea is placed on the window sill, covered by Feng Zhichang’s back half.

Liu Liu stepped lightly, walked to the side of the wheelchair, bent down a little: "Second brother, someone is here."

Feng Zhichang's room seems to be no different from ordinary guest rooms, not because of the owner's unique preferences, but the walls are hung with skeletons, skulls and internal organs, or snakes, scorpions, centipedes, spiders, earthworms, caterpillars, mantises and other poisons are crawling everywhere.

On the contrary, the inside of the house is very tidy, and the items are arranged meticulously, as if it is still smelling incense. The aroma overflowing from the inside has the freshness of camphor and the mellow sweetness of almonds.It is a popular provincial reading incense nowadays. When literati are reading, they light this incense to dispel tiredness. It is always kept in Mr. Wang's study.

An image of a person who likes to read books and doesn't talk much appears in Xie Zhixu's mind.Sure enough, the rumors are not credible. Knowing a person starts from the details of life. Xie Zhixu suddenly felt a sense of pride in Qiongshan Fengqingyuelang.

"Ah-"

The moon in the water was disturbed by Yueguan Mountain's screams.

"Why is there a snake on the stool!!"

It was the thin black-scaled snake that was two palms long, because Yue Guanshan almost sat on it, and it was bowing its body and showing its pale fangs, full of aggressiveness.

"Okay, don't make a fuss," Wu Li reassured, "This is a Black Swamp Snake, a bite from it won't cause any pain."

"Oh, it's not poisonous, so it turns out."

"It can help you escape all suffering in the world."

Yue Guanshan turned pale with shock, and dodged to hide behind Wu Li.

Liu Liu pushed a wheelchair and formed a table with the crowd, Feng Zhichang's face was dull, as soon as he got to the table, the black scaled snake hissed into his sleeve, Yue Guanshan was dumbfounded.

Xie Zhixu thought that his senior brother didn't know Yueguan Mountain yet, so he took the initiative to introduce: "This is a friend I made with the third senior brother in Suzhou, named—"

Liu Liu: "Sick child."

Xie Zhixu and Wu Li: "???"

Yueguanshan looked around: "Huh? Who's sick?"

Liu Liu: "Stop talking nonsense, let go of farts."

"Okay, okay," Xie Zhixu wiped off the sweat on his forehead, hurriedly untied the oiled paper bag, and respectfully placed chopsticks on Fengzhi Chang Cheng, "Snack after dinner, my story is a bit long, brother, you can taste it while listening two."

Only then did Feng Zhichang's impatient expression ease.Wu Li also secretly picked up a pair of chopsticks.

"Brother also knows that I went to the island in the lake this morning. I was really interested in the anecdotes about the island in the lake and the Liang family, so I went to inquire about it." Without sarcasm, Xie Zhixu quickly explained, "Uh, eavesdropping is of course not my intention—well, back to the topic, I have gained a lot this trip, and I learned very interesting stories. If you like to listen to operas, let’s start—”

A generation of famous families in the middle of the lake, the head of this generation, Qiu Hengdao, has a unique skill of slashing a sword to the sky, and his life-long wish is to revive the family by shining the lintel. However, the timing is not right, and the imperial government's policy of emphasizing literature and suppressing martial arts has caused the sects of the world to wither.Qiu Hengdao was frustrated, and in order to relieve the depression in his heart, he had to change his wish, hoping that the unique martial arts skills of Huzhongdao could be passed on from generation to generation.

However, this is also a matter of luck for him.Because of Huzhong Island's sect rules, martial arts are passed on from male to female, and his wife was born with two daughters due to illness, and her successors are weak, and her natal family is powerful, so he is never allowed to take concubines. A bowl of bitter juice ruined Nianxiang.

Although the two daughters were born Yuxue and were lovely, standard beauties, and there were many aristocratic families coveted by far and near, but Qiu Hengdao was still unsatisfied, feeling the energy loss in his aging body, and lamenting all the time.

To relieve her father's worries, the eldest daughter is willing to take off her skirt to get rid of her yellow flowers, and practice together with all the disciples in her school, but she is scolded by her father.

"It doesn't look like a daughter's house! All you need to do is embroider, arrange flowers, add fragrance and order tea. How can someone with thin arms and legs compare with Erlang? If you come to the boudoir at sunrise to marry the husband, it is not my Qiu family. Qiu's secret skills If it is handed over to you, it will eventually flow into the hands of others. Women should not speak in vain."

Unexpectedly, the eldest daughter has her own ideas. She is neither humble nor overbearing, nor arrogant or impetuous: "Father's knowledge is also short, and his words are stale. My daughter is not for the Qiu family, but for herself. She will find a way out."

The eldest daughter has been away for fifteen years. When she left home, she was still a little girl who was not as good as cardamom.She doesn't wear a skirt but wears a Hu suit, doesn't wear makeup or hairpins, and wears a waist and leggings with a heroic appearance. She is already a well-known heroine in the Yangtze River area.

I don't know what kind of kung fu she practiced to defeat her biological father.Qiu Hengdao has such a daughter, but he is not proud of it, but ashamed. One of his own daughters practiced kung fu of other schools; At this age, she became an old girl who picked up leftovers, making him, a father, a joke of a suffering family.

Counting each item in detail, the eldest daughter became the person Qiu Hengdao least liked at home.

Contrary to the eldest daughter, the youngest daughter is very obedient and obedient. She has been married to the two elders for many years, and she has been raised weakly and delicately, and she is a little bird.It's a pity that among these people, there is no one who is in line with Qiu Hengdao's heart. Qiu Hengdao has no children under his knees, and all his hopes of becoming a family are pinned on his daughter. The in-laws must choose the best one.

The so-called best, Qiu Hengdao has a detailed plan for this.He has learned a lesson, understands the current situation, and understands that at the moment when the imperial court is everywhere in control, only by communicating with the officialdom can he swim upstream in the withered martial arts.

The Liang family lived next to him on the island in the lake by the edge of Taihu Lake. The ancestors were the founding generals who disarmed and returned to the fields.

Coincidentally, in the year when the eldest daughter returned home, the Liang family, whom Qiu Hengdao had been looking forward to, finally came to propose marriage.

It's about his island in the lake, no matter the eldest or the second, just look at the marriage.

The eldest daughter said: "I have no plans to get married, and I don't plan to get married in the future. I will leave soon and continue wandering in the rivers and lakes. It is best not to look for me, otherwise you will not be able to find a bride on the day of the wedding. Don't blame me for losing your face."

The youngest daughter said: "Father, don't embarrass my sister. My daughter is willing to share your worries and solve your problems. Although my daughter has heard that Mr. Liang... spends time and wine, sleeps in flowers and sleeps in willows... It's okay for my daughter to suffer some grievances for the Qiu family... It's just my daughter. I can no longer be by your side, thinking that I will miss you and my mother every day, I can't help crying... It's okay for my daughter to marry, but even my sister has to leave, who will take care of you in the future, who will be for you and for you My mother is in retirement... My sister has been away from home for many years. I thought I would never leave again when I came back this time. Who knows, in my sister's eyes, our house is an inn where you can come and go freely. Don't blame my sister for speaking straight, she is really a sister I also can't bear my elder sister. In the future, my younger sister has a husband and an heir, and my elder sister refuses to get married. She is always alone. When you get sick or old, who will take care of you, won't you be lonely?... Sister, no family Life is incomplete."

Qiu Hengdao made a decisive decision and married his eldest daughter to the Liang family.
