"Father, what happened?" Hua Manlou asked the doubts in his heart after sitting down.

"Does Lou'er know about Ten Smoke Village?" Hua Ruling asked

"Ten Yanzhai? What does this have to do with them?" Hua Manlou was puzzled. Although Shiyanzhai was a bandit, it had a good reputation and could be regarded as a green forest hero.

Ten Yanzhai is a cottage with a group of bandits in it. Although their leader He Gong is a bandit, he will be robbed according to the target. He will not disturb the nearby villages or rob poor people. Sometimes he will shoot when he sees someone being bullied on the road. Doing a little favor or something, so the court didn't organize too much encirclement and suppression.

"There is a severe drought in the river, and every time the food we transport there is intercepted by Shiyan Village," Hua Ruling said.

Suddenly, there was a severe drought in Hejian Mansion, and the people had no crops. For the sake of the people, the shop of the Hua family in Hejian decided to sell grain at a low price, much lower than usual, while other shops wanted to make a fortune. They didn't dare to do anything to the Hua family there, but the Hua family's food storage in Hejian was limited after all, and the food was sold out soon.

Hua Ruling immediately asked Hua's family to transfer grain from Jiangnan Generation, but he didn't know why Shiyan Village suddenly stared at Hua's family this time. After half a month, apart from a small amount of grain mobilized from other places, there were also high-priced purchases from local merchants, but these were still too small in quantity, and a large amount of grain was intercepted by Shiyan Village.

Due to what Shiyanzhai did before, Hua Ruling thought it was a misunderstanding at first. After all, it was food for disaster relief, and it was impossible to intercept it with Shiyanzhai's behavior style, so he immediately sent Sixth Brother Hua to After negotiating with Shiyan Village, He Gong, the owner of Shiyan Village, immediately kicked him out.

"Father, have you figured out why Shiyanzhai wanted to intercept our goods?" Hua Manlou also felt that there was some misunderstanding, as Shiyanzhai didn't seem to do such a thing.

"No, I have been sending people to negotiate, but Shiyanzhai has always refused to negotiate with our people, and once even wanted to kill our people. If it weren't for the fact that the few martial arts people who went there at that time were relatively strong, I'm afraid it's gone now. died."

Although the Hua family is a merchant family, it also has a certain status in the Jianghu, so the Hua family has some martial arts from Hua Ruling down to the servants, and Hua Manlou's martial arts is a first-class master in the Jianghu.

"Father, let me go to Shiyan Village. There must be some misunderstanding."

Although he knew that Huamanlou was strong in martial arts, he was still worried about going to Hua Ruling alone. Fortunately, Lu Xiaofeng was with him, so Hua Ruling felt relieved a lot, but there was Tang Mochen beside Huamanlou, so the question Coming, Tang Mochen didn't say he was going, but ever since Huamanlou said he was going to Shiyan Village, Tang Mochen grabbed Huamanlou's clothes and refused to let go.

Tang Mochen's meaning was very clear, and he also wanted to follow. Since his father sent so many people there and failed to solve the problem, Hua Manlou would naturally not think that he could solve it as soon as he waited for someone to go. If there is a misunderstanding, then it is very likely that the Hua family was plotted against. Even the people who plotted against the Hua family, Hua Manlou and others can make a rough guess. After all, the timing is too coincidental to make people suspicious.

Because it is very likely that someone is plotting against the Hua family, they are even more dangerous this time, so Hua Manlou really wanted Tang Mochen to stay here and wait for him and Lu Xiaofeng to come back, but Tang Mochen refused to agree.

So Hua Manlou told Tang Mochen seriously about the seriousness of this matter and the dangers involved, and wanted to persuade Tang Mochen to stay. Who knew that Tang Mochen grasped it even tighter after listening to it, and his little eyes were full of stubbornness. , biting his lips desperately, so Hua Manlou relented, but he really couldn't take him there.

When everyone really had no choice, Lu Xiaofeng took a pair of scissors and cut off the corner of Tang Mochen's clothes with a click. Everyone stared at Tang Mochen nervously, afraid that he would cry, as a paralyzed The Paotai Tang Mochen naturally didn't cry.

Everyone saw Tang Mochen running forward and hugging Huamanlou. Since Tang Mochen was only seven or eight years old, he only hugged Huamanlou's thigh. Lu Xiaofeng silently glanced at Tang Mochen and Huamanlou. I looked at the scissors in my hand again, and then put the scissors back calmly. This is really not easy to cut, so no one can do anything about it.

Hua Manlou bent down and rubbed Tang Mochen's little head, slowly persuading Tang Mochen to stay, without any impatience in his tone, Tang Mochen nodded his head from time to time listening to Hua Manlou's words to show that he understood, but The arms that hugged Hua Manlou tightened even tighter.

On the other side, Lu Xiaofeng was dragged out by Brother Hua, as if he had something to explain to him.

"Lu Xiaoji, you have to take good care of Xiaoqi and Xiaochen. If they suffer such a little injury, I guarantee that you will have good wine to entertain you every time you come to Hua's house in the future, but you can definitely see it. If you have it, you can’t drink it.”

Lu Xiaofeng was very depressed, he obviously went to help, but why was he the one who was threatened, or was he threatened by the person he was helping? I must be drooling and then be greedy to death. This kind of death is too aggrieved. Even if I want to die, I have to let myself finish the wine first.

"Fifth brother, are you going to let Xiaochen follow?"

"Nonsense, do you think that even if you leave Xiaochen behind, you will just stay there obediently, that's even more dangerous."

Lu Xiaofeng fell silent, it was impossible for Tang Mochen to stay obediently with Huamanlou as attached to him, instead of letting him follow them secretly, it would be safer to take them directly.

"Fifth Brother, don't worry, Hua Manlou is my best friend, and I like Xiaochen very much. Even if I get hurt, I will definitely not let Huamanlou and Xiaochen lose a single hair."

"That's what you said. I'll count them when I get back. If I lose one, I'll settle the score with you."

Lu Xiaofeng wanted to cry but had no tears, it was really just an exaggeration, fifth brother, you must not take it seriously, Lu Xiaofeng seemed to see that his wine was getting farther and farther away from him.

On the other hand, no matter how much Hua Manlou persuaded Tang Mochen, he would not let go. In the end, tears were rolling in Tang Mochen's eyes, and there was still a trace of crying in his voice, but it could be heard that he was holding on desperately. I don't see it, but he can hear the change in Tang Mochen's voice clearly.

"Brother Hua, please don't leave me."

Hua Manlou was stunned, the child holding her leg was scared, Hua Manlou remembered, ever since I met him, whenever he went out by himself, he was always by his side, at that time Hua Manlou knew that he was afraid , I am afraid that I am the same, once separated, I become a person of two worlds.

So after Huamanlou, he would take Tang Mochen with him no matter where he went. Was he afraid of the same thing because he refused to stay this time?

"Xiao Chen, brother Hua will be back soon, the place we are going this time is a little dangerous, can you stay here?"

What happened this time is still unclear. Although the other party has a good reputation in the world, they are a group of bandits. I don’t know what they will do if there is a real conflict. Although Lu Xiaofeng and I are both very good at martial arts, we are still worried. At that time, Tang Mochen would not be able to take care of it. Although Hua Manlou had softened his heart, he still didn't plan to bring him along.

"No, I can protect Brother Hua. Although I am young, I am a very powerful killer." Tangjiabao's countless foreign businessmen naturally don't need to make money by killing people, but this is their inheritance from the beginning of Tangjiabao. The occupation they have left is now their Tangjiabao way of life above the rivers and lakes, and Tang Mochen's ideal is naturally to become a powerful killer like his master.
