Chapter 43: Does That Make Sense?
Jiangliu Mengshi and the others followed Liu Chengwu left and right, and walked for a while before they came to a small courtyard.
In this courtyard, the courtyard wall has a few newly repaired appearances, the yard is not big, and there are still a lot of sundries piled up in the corner, anyone can see that this is an abandoned yard that has been hastily repaired.
The courtyard gate faces the three main rooms, and there are two more modest side rooms on the right hand side of the courtyard gate, which also look to have been simply repaired.
Liu Chengwu took Jiang Meng and the others to the main house, and at this time, a girl walked out of the room on the right, who looked a little like Liu Wenmin, and it was estimated that she was Liu Wenmin's sister.
The girl has a beautiful face and a not very fair complexion, but it makes the whole person look heroic.
The girl saw that Liu Chengwu was back, and she also took two young people with her.
"Dad, why are you still going out if you're not feeling well!"
The girl swept the river, her eyes stayed on Meng Shi for a moment, she didn't give Liu Chengwu a chance to speak, and then said:
"Who are you?"
Jiang Liu was about to speak, Liu Chengwu said:
"This is a disciple of the Dragon Sword Sect and a friend of your brother. ”
When the girl heard this, she suddenly became emotional, blushed and said:
"Why did my brother have an accident? Now that the people are gone, why are you still doing it? Get out!"
Liu Chengwu hurriedly explained to Jiang Liu and Meng Shi:
"The relationship between the two brothers and sisters has always been very good, and she said angry words when she was excited, don't take them to heart. ”
Then he said to the girl:
"Girl, these two are your brother's good brothers in the sect, they brought your brother back, go pour some water. ”
After Liu Chengwu finished speaking, tears couldn't help falling again.
Although Liu Wenmin died in the sect, Liu Chengwu himself as a sword cultivator, and he also knew that the cultivation was full of difficulties and dangers.
Not only did he not have a grudge against the Dragon Sword Sect, but he was even a little grateful.
Sword cultivation died in the experience, and most of them could only be buried in the belly of the beast, and burying the bones in the wilderness was a good ending.
The Dragon Sword Sect was able to send back his son's ashes, which could indeed be regarded as a benevolent act.
The girl turned her head, wiped it on her face, and walked back to the room she had been in.
Liu Chengwu took Jiang Liu and the others to the main house, and Jiang Liu saw that the furniture in the house was not only simple, but also a little old.
Liu Chengwu beckoned Jiang Liu and Meng Shi to sit down first, and then he sat down.
At this time, Liu Wenmin's sister came in with tea, poured a cup for each of the three of them, and stood beside Liu Chengwu with a cold face.
Jiang Liu has roughly said what happened in the secret place, of course the secret place can't be said, only when he is training.
After speaking, Jiang Liu said:
"I told your uncle before, Brother Liu is because he saved me, so I will be your son from now on. ”
"Life and death are unpredictable along the way of cultivation, but it is estimated that people are old, and they really can't accept it all of a sudden. ”
Jiang Liu's words seemed to make Liu Chengwu unload his defense, choking and crying.
The other three people in the room also burst into tears.
After a while, the emotions of the four calmed down.
Jiang Liu asked:
"Uncle, why don't you wait to send Brother Liu away and give up the position of patriarch so soon?"
Liu Chengwu said with a bitter look on his face:
"Min'er is gone, and I'm also disheartened, and I don't want to take care of the affairs of the clan. ”
At this time, Liu Wenmin's sister said angrily on the side:
"The day after receiving the bad news from my brother, the second uncle took the three clan elders to find my father, saying that the family could not have no successor, and that my father had to give up the position of patriarch.
He also said that my father was not the patriarch anymore, and it was not suitable to live in the original place, so let us move.
You saw it, and you moved us here.
Isn't it just relying on his son to be in the Haotian Sword Sect, don't worry, Dad, I will also go to the sect assessment next year. ”
Jiang Liu and Meng Shi accompanied Liu Chengwu to have a conversation again, and the situation was almost understood.
got up to say goodbye and went to the inner hall of the Liu family.
Jiang Liu Meng Shi and the others came to the inner hall, not only Liu Chengxue was there, but there were also three more old people in the inner hall.
Liu Chengxue introduced to Jiang and Meng that these are the three clan elders.
Jiang Liu didn't say much to them, he sat down at the top of the position, and said coldly:
"On behalf of the Dragon Sword Sect, I will go to the Liu family to deal with Brother Liu's bereavement matters.
I only want to say two points, one is that Brother Liu's funeral must be done according to the specifications of the patriarch's son.
Second, all the funeral expenses will be borne by my Dragon Sword Sect.
Patriarch Liu, when the matter is done, I will give you all the money. ”
As soon as Jiang Liu finished speaking, Liu Chengxue immediately stood up and said with a sad face:
"Two sword immortals, you see that now I am the patriarch, I'm afraid it doesn't make sense to do this, right?"
Jiang Liu also stood up and said in a fierce voice:
"Doesn't that make sense? Brother Liu's bones are not cold, so you immediately force his father to give up the position of patriarch.
Does that make sense?
Go and see the courtyard where they live, and even the guards are not as good as the guards.
Does that make sense?
The Liu family already knew about Brother Liu's death, but the Liu family, not to mention wearing linen and filial piety, did not even have a little sadness on everyone's face.
Does that make the?"
Jiang Liu's last question was shouted loudly, Liu Chengxue's face turned pale in an instant, cold sweat flowed, and the three clan elders also lowered their heads.
Jiang Liu continued:
"I, the Dragon Sword Sect, don't plan to interfere in your family affairs.
But I will never let the disciples of the sect die blindly, I don't care what you do.
Tomorrow I will see the Liu family, there is a dead young patriarch. ”
Seeing that Jiang Liu's tone softened, the three clan elders immediately agreed.
"This is indeed the fault of the clan, just do what the sword fairy said, this is all due to be shared. ”
Jiang Liu didn't care if they sincerely admitted their mistakes or were forced by the pressure of the Dragon Sword Sect, as long as they agreed, Jiang Liu was not afraid that they would not be able to do it well.
What's more, they didn't dare not agree, after all, Pingluan City was still under the jurisdiction of the Dragon Sword Sect.
Jiang Liu and Meng Shi left the inner hall of the Liu family directly and walked back to the broken courtyard where Liu Chengwu's father and daughter lived.
Back in the courtyard, Jiang Liu told Liu Chengwu's father and daughter about his arrangements, and then asked:
"Uncle, little sister, if you have any other requirements, you can put them forward, I will find a way. ”
Liu Chengwu's father and daughter expressed satisfaction with Jiangliu's arrangement and did not make other requests.
Then the four of them had a casual meal in the main house, and the meal was brought by the Liu family guards who were guarding outside the small courtyard by Jiang Liu.
During the banquet, Jiang Liu noticed that Meng Shi's eyes dodged when he looked at Liu Xiaomei, and the roots of his ears were still a little red.
Jiang Liu didn't care about Meng Shi's strange appearance first, and said to Liu Xiaomei:
"Little sister, I see that you have a great talent for cultivation, how about I take you to the Dragon Sword Sect?"
Jiang Liu really didn't tell a lie, Liu Xiaomei did have an innate talent for sword bones, and there must be elders rushing to accept apprentices when she brought it to the Dragon Sword Sect.
Liu Xiaomei was not modest at all, but her tone was very faint and said:
"I've been very talented, but now, my father is here alone, I'm afraid that the second uncle won't let him have a good time. ”
In order to reassure Liu Xiaomei, Liu Chengwu said:
"Don't worry about me, girl, the Dragon Sword Sect is willing to accept you, you can go."
I am a fourth-order swordsman, and your second uncle, a swordsman, can't do anything to me.
What's more, he is treating me like this now, that is, he is afraid that no one will believe him.
When he didn't have to worry about it, it shouldn't be like this. ”
Jiang Liu saw that Liu Xiaomei still looked worried, and said:
"Uncle's affairs, I will arrange it. Since I've asked you to come with me, I'll help you get rid of all your concerns. ”
