Chapter 0853 - Jade
Ruan Gumao thought of a different scenery in his heart.
He knew that since Ruan Shanlin couldn't become the city lord, then he didn't plan to stay in this Heavenly Sword City, Ruan Guheng discussed it with Yuan Ying, and Yuan Ying neither agreed nor objected to Ruan Gumao's plan to follow him and move his family south.
Ruan Gumao has the bottom in his heart.
In the early years, when they were in exile, the Ruan family was lonely, and later met Yuan Ying, Ruan Guheng had a good relationship with Yuan Ying, and the old Ruan family slowly grew bigger.
If Yuan Ying is gone, then the Ruan family is bound to decline.
Sandwiched between the Yao family and the Fan family, his surname Ruan is not easy to behave, so it is better to leave and let the Yao family and the Fan family fight to the death.
So when Fan Zhihua came to visit, Ruan Gumao actually didn't want to see him in his heart, but Fan Qingsong was now the next Heavenly Sword City Lord, and he couldn't see him out of courtesy.
"Invite people to the guest hall!"
Ruan Gumao guessed that if Fan Zhihua could come to him, he must have invited himself to stand on the same side as him, how could he refuse him without offending him too much?
However, when he saw Fan Zhihua, Ruan Gumao still had to force a smile.
"Oh, why does Brother Fan have time to come to my house!"
Fan Zhihua also smiled all over his face: "I haven't been close to Brother Ruan since the competition, if I don't come and walk around again, I'm afraid I won't be able to say it!"
"Where, where!" the two men laughed and spoke, but they couldn't laugh in their hearts.
After Fan Zhihua took a seat, she immediately lowered her voice and approached Ruan Gumao: "Brother Tai heard about it?"
Of course, Ruan Gumao knew what he was asking, "Of course, all this is now in charge of City Lord Yuan, and it will be City Lord Fan's turn to call the shots in the future!"
"Dude, do you know what this means?"
"Alas, what it means has nothing to do with my Ruan family-"
"How can it not have anything to do with you? You and I have never been as calculating as the one surnamed Yao—"
Hearing Fan Zhihua say this, Ruan Gumao felt disgusted, if he Fan Zhihua didn't know how to calculate, he wouldn't push Fan Qingsong to the position of city lord.
I heard Fan Zhihua continue: "The hilt of the sword was stolen this day, and I think nine times out of ten it was the mastermind of the surnamed Yao!"
When Ruan Gumao heard him say this, he immediately straightened up and put on an attitude that he didn't care about himself: "I said Brother Fan, you can't say that." Our old Ruan family doesn't say anything about it, we don't say anything!"
Seeing Ruan Gumao's look of wanting to get out of the matter, Fan Zhihua knew it.
At this time, everyone wants to protect themselves, and it is the most common way to clear up their relationships, so he leaned in front of Ruan Gumao again, Ruan Gumao could only tilt his head and keep a distance from Fan Zhihua as much as possible.
Fan Zhihua grabbed Ruan Gumao's wrist as soon as he stretched out his hand: "What's the matter with you? I don't eat people, you listen to me finish talking to you!"
"You say, you say!" Ruan Gumao said, his body still looking resistant.
Fan Zhihua didn't care so much, he took Ruan Gumao's hand and continued: "The surname Yao has military power, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your people!"
Ruan Gumao sneered in his heart: It's good that you care about your own people, but you care about my people?
Fan Zhihua continued: "If there is really any turmoil, you and I will drag our families and lead our families, and it will be a catastrophe at that time!"
Of course, Ruan Gumao would not reveal his intention to move his family south so early, and now when Ruan Guheng goes to Zhuo County to transport things, he will send his things over in advance, obviously it seems that he sent Ruan Guheng things, but in fact he is helping himself to transport them.
All this was done seamlessly, who would have thought that he, Ruan Gumao, would want to retreat instead of fighting for the city lord?
Ruan Gumao catered to Fan Zhihua on his lips: "Yes, yes, my brother can see it thoroughly." ”
"Now the overall situation cannot be settled for a while, and there are variables for a while. Brother Ruan, I have a proposal, I don't know what Brother Ruan thinks?"
Ruan Gumao didn't speak, waiting to see what Fan Zhihua proposed.
"You and I might as well go directly to the Yuan City Lord, even if we don't find the Heavenly Sword Hilt, we should let the New City Lord take office, it's not a way to go on like this!"
Ruan Gumao asked, "Then what if Ling Lang becomes the city lord, what will the city lord Yuan do?"
"These are small things, the important thing is that we stabilize the situation first!"
Ruan Gumao thought to himself: You old fox is really good at wishful thinking, you play like I am a fool? You want the overall situation to be stable, and you plan to let me stand in line? I am not so stupid!
"This, Brother Fan, I won't tell you, I don't have any pursuits now. If Brother Fan has any decision, our Ruan family will definitely support it. As for how to stabilize the situation, I can't help you because I'm not a good learner!"
Without waiting for Fan Zhihua to speak again, Ruan Gumao instructed his subordinates to take out a piece of jade prepared in advance.
"Brother Fan, the etiquette is not good, the etiquette is not thoughtful, you said that I didn't go to the house to congratulate me in person recently, and I still ask the eldest brother to smile at this little gift!"
Fan Zhihua took this piece of jade, where did he have any mind to taste the jade now? But Ruan Gumao had to pull him to tell him in detail where he got this piece of good jade, and how lucky he was.
Then he has always been reluctant to use it, and now it seems that he just gave it to Fan Qingsong, which can be regarded as a good intention for Puyu to match the hero.
He pulled Fan Zhihua and talked a lot, from this piece of jade to the recent plan to ask Ruan Shanlin for a family matter, and how the people in the clan took turns to ask the matchmaker to talk about the item.
It's just that Ruan Shanlin's kid doesn't get in the oil and salt, and he doesn't give a good look when several matchmakers come.
Fan Zhihua was annoyed when she heard this, but she couldn't interrupt him, and at the same time, she knew that Ruan Gumao was just doing this to show herself that he didn't want to be with her.
Fan Zhihua didn't plan to agree to Ruan Gumao's side at once, so he found an opportunity to say goodbye and return to his mansion.
When Fan Qingsong went to see Fan Zhihua in the study, he was playing with the piece of jade sent by Ruan Gumao.
"Dad, where did you get the jade, it looks good!"
"It was sent to you by the surname Ruan!" he said as he handed the jade to Fan Qingsong.
Fan Qingsong touched the stone with his hand and looked at the candlelight, "I can't see it clearly at night, but I will know if it is of the best grade by looking at the sun tomorrow morning." By the way, Dad, how did you go to Ruan's house today?"
"He didn't agree, so he got such a piece of jade and sent me away. How did you send someone to inquire about it? What did the guy surnamed Yao do?"
"Dad, it's different from what you guessed, I don't think the person surnamed Yao seems to have made any moves. Yao Mansion is still mourning Yao Yuanxiu, I don't see anything abnormal!"
