Chapter Twenty-Six: The Courtyard Is Opened

Zhan Dongrong was blown and glared at Chenxing: "Friend Chen, you are deceiving people too much!" It's just that you are a guest from afar, and the old man is a landlord, so he doesn't want you to pick your eyes. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info How many guests do you want to invite? The old body bears it! Just the wrong time, you take responsibility. ”

Chenxing smiled: "I don't have much spare time, it's just that I helped you teach you a lesson yesterday." Senior calf care, you have to find me trouble, what can I do? The longer this drags on, the harder it will be to figure it out, so it's better to fix it sooner. ”

When Zhan Dongrong heard this, he was even more angry, and he hated Chenxing so much that he was itching, but he was scheming and could no longer give people shortcomings in his words, so he sneered: "The old man wanted to prepare a glass of water and wine, and invited friends from the rivers and lakes to gather and understand the rights and wrongs between us. ”

Chenxing said: "Don't worry, it's already noon, even if you want to fight, you have to eat your stomach first, and you can't let the guests do things on an empty stomach." Zhan Dongrong heard him say this, obviously deliberately cheating, so he sneered: "The old body admits that he is not, and he can't think of a way to entertain many extra friends in a short period of time, what is Xiaoxia going to do, please make it clear, the old body must listen carefully." ”

He didn't want to let go of this cunning young man, and he was determined to deal with Chenxing to the end. Chenxing's answer surprised Zhan Dongrong. But Wen Chenxing smiled and replied: "Senior, inviting so many guests is also my own temporary idea, I can't blame you for not being prepared." It doesn't matter, we might as well entertain each other, my guests will be entertained by myself, and I will only borrow your place for use, this is always okay, right? ”

As he spoke, Chen Xing took out a small flute from his arms, put it on his mouth and blew it, and suddenly saw a group of people coming from afar, some picking tables, some picking firewood, and some picking dishes, which were immediately set up in the courtyard.

The villagers who watched the excitement did not leave at the door, but when they saw that Chenxing had changed so many things like a trick, they were even more interested and refused to leave.

Chenxing went to the door and smiled and stretched out his hand to invite guests: "Please!" Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming, I have no respect for you, only a little thin dish is prepared, and it is not a tribute. ”

The people were surprised and delighted to see the excitement, but they still didn't dare to go in. Chen Xing said again: "Don't worry about offending the Zhan family and getting into trouble in the future." I think Zhan Daxia is a decent family, and he won't do that kind of indiscriminate thing, and he is not ready to ask everyone for much help, just write down today's events, and tell people the truth in the future. ”

Hearing him say this, Zhan Dongrong's face became even more ugly, and only some of the people at the door entered the door after listening to Chenxing's words, and most of them still waited.

Chen Xing smiled: "Senior, your power here is really not small. ”

Zhan Dongrong's face turned pale, and he waved outside the door and said: "Fathers, if you are not respectful enough to you on weekdays, don't blame it, please come in with a face." If there is really any misconduct in the lower parts, please also come to the face to give advice, and you should be taught in the lower parts. ”

When he said this, some people actually entered the door, while others ran a little farther.

Chenxing beckoned, "Come in, everyone!" If you don't appreciate your face again, Zhan Daxia will really be angry. Zhan Dongrong was indeed so angry with him that he couldn't even speak, but those people finally rushed in because of Chenxing's words.

More than twenty tables have been set up in the courtyard, which is almost enough to sit. More than a dozen men greeted and watched, poured wine and served dishes, and a few chefs lit a fire to prepare new hot dishes.

Zhan Dong smiled and said, "Young man! It turns out that you have been prepared. ”

Chen Xing smiled: "All the friends in the rivers and lakes who have heads and faces have been invited by their seniors." I had to pull some on the street to join in the fun. I just want to say in particular, those villagers don't know each other in Xia, they are nothing more than local villagers, and they will never favor me. ”

Zhan Dongrong sneered: "Well said." Villagers are also very welcome to come and help sort out the merits together. Chen Xingyi smiled and said, "Don't be busy, eat first." In addition, I have already paid for these drinks and food, and my predecessor only needs to greet the guests you invite. Zhan Dongrong listened and asked, "Xiaoxia is really afraid that the guests I invited will be partial to me, which is unfair to you?" ”

Chen Xing said: "I don't dare to say this, in short, your friend has scruples when he speaks, and it is also human nature." At this point, I believe that these villagers invited will have to live here in the future, but I am just a passerby, and they are not guilty of marrying the elders for me. Having said that, if there are more people, there will always be more miscellaneous words, and it is inevitable that there will be a fair word in the future. ”

In his words, he had already decided that the notary public that Zhan Dong allowed would be unfair. It's a great move. Especially some martial arts people who are a little famous and have a neutral position, they are even more difficult in their hearts: if they are biased towards Chenxing, they are embarrassed here in Zhan Dongrong; If it is biased towards Zhan Dongrong, it will be difficult to hear it in the future.

Originally, it was a pattern in which the strong dragon did not suppress the head snake, but Chenxing actually ate the head snake. Zhan Dongrong hurriedly went back to his own hall seat. If he stayed outside any longer, he would have to vomit blood in anger.

The guests he invited were also a little uneasy. Although there was a banquet in the back room, the atmosphere was not harmonious.

Some people deliberately wanted to avoid suspicion and refused to be too eager with others, and Lu Dafang didn't dare to talk to the guests more.

Some people regret that they shouldn't have to do a lot of things to wade into this troubled water, it seems that the young man's head is not easy to shave, so that they now think they are sitting on wax, and if they don't do it well, they will become Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror - the two sides are not people.

The young man talks eloquently and has a straight posture, so he must have a lot of background, and it is also troublesome to offend.

The best way is to stay out of the matter, but now it is impossible, so I have to be unbiased on both sides, try to be fair, and talk back.

In addition, in their subconscious, they also want to see Zhan Dongrong embarrassed, just because they are somewhat oppressed by the Zhan family. Zhan Dongrong regretted himself the most, and deeply felt that he had made a mistake in making things bigger.

If you really talk about the merits, your two sons are not right, and the other party is impulsive under the misunderstanding at most, and he does not lose his chivalrous nature.

What's more, at that time, everyone had already beaten up, and if he admitted his mistake, he could still gain a reputation for being modest.

Anyway, it happened on his doorstep. No matter what he does, no one can say that he is seconded because he is afraid of things. And now, he has made it difficult for him to ride a tiger, and he doesn't know how to end it.

Chenxing is the first to take the lead, the first to take the lead, to gain the upper hand in momentum, and also to take advantage. Only Zhan Dongrong invited the fair person in advance, but he did not obtain Chenxing's consent. He is a favor, involving a lot of idlers, and pushing the boat down the river, naturally.

Those cooks or something, Chen Xing told Xi Kai to help them. And Chenxing has even more unique arrangements: just when the banquet was about to end, a large group of people came outside the door, both men and women, young and old, not from the martial arts, just small people in the market, or local, such as Old Man Ye who sells sugar, Grandma Hu who sews clothes, San'er who grows vegetables, Chun Liu'er who sells wontons, Xiao Huilian who sells flowers, etc.

Zhan Dongrong straightened his eyes, and vaguely felt that something was even more wrong. There's no reason for these people to come here, what did Chenxing do when he brought them here? Zhan Dongrong didn't recognize these people very well, and some of them were familiar, and suddenly saw that the old man Ye who was selling grain was known, so he glared: "Old man Ye!" Today is the meeting of the people of the rivers and lakes, what do you want to do here? ”

Old man Ye was scared stupid and didn't know what to do. But Chenxing smiled: "These people are all invited guests, and they don't have to worry about their predecessors, and I will entertain them." ”

He asked Xi Kai to invite these people to the table and sit down. The table top was one that Chenxing had specially ordered to prepare. At that time, people didn't know what important guests he had invited, but they didn't expect it to be such a group of people, so they were puzzled. Chenxing was very polite to these people, personally took the cup for them, toasted everyone with a round of wine, and diligently persuaded them to eat more.

The table was full of dishes, but some of them were already cold. Many dishes are still eaten hot, and even the taste is different when it is cold, but these guests don't care too much and still eat very energetically.

In their memory, they had never eaten such a luxurious banquet. Ordinary people, it's not easy to make a living, how can they eat and drink? Occasionally, there will be red and white ceremonies, and you can have a banquet, but the quality is much worse. The wine and food that Chenxing called for today were good, although they were placed in the open-air courtyard, they were more sumptuous than the banquet in the hall.

Zhan Dongrong hadn't noticed these before, but now in order to ask Old Man Ye and the others about their intentions, he went outside to take a look, only to find the dishes on the table in the courtyard, and suddenly felt his face dull.

Zhan Dongrong is actually not stingy, today's table is seven taels of silver, and the hall is full, and it is also very passable. Only the people he invited were martial arts people with status, and he couldn't be rude.

However, there are not many famous people, so they gather a few tables, sit sparsely, and don't talk much, which is much more deserted than outside. Chenxing's guests are mixed, everyone who sees them has a share, and they can sit full at once, which is more polished than Zhan Dongrong.

Zhan Dongrong not only invited few guests, but also had to consider their status and status, and only those who were similar and not in bad feelings could be arranged together, so as not to offend people.

The most difficult thing to deal with during the banquet is the seat.

Zhan Dongrong took a lot of effort to arrange the seats in the hall and sit down, and he was already drinking freely outside. When he came out, he saw that what Chenxing used to greet the people in the market was actually a special banquet of less than ten taels, and in comparison, he was very embarrassed by the big gentry sitting on the ground.

No wonder Zhan Dongrong walked towards Chenxing with a heavy face: "What does this mean, Xiaoxia?" Chen Xing seemed to be clear about Zhan Dongrong's question, but he pretended to be confused and replied, "What did the predecessor ask?" Although I also invited some guests to watch the excitement, but I paid out of my own pocket to entertain them, nothing more than borrowing the courtyard of the house, and there was nothing to offend my predecessors, right? ”

Zhan Dongrong was so angry that he didn't say a word, so he could only turn around and leave, and before leaving, he left a sentence: "Xiaoxia, don't go to the end, and don't deceive people too much!" ”

Chenxing smiled: "As the saying goes, the road is uneven, and someone steps on it." I don't dare to be in the name of chivalry, I just do things with my conscience. When you encounter a bully who oppresses the good people, you don't dare to care how hard the other party is, and you always want to reach out to manage it, so you will become a sin and deserve death? ”

Zhan Dongrong didn't dare to attack: "Okay! You might as well be hard-mouthed, but you have to give me a clear explanation when you turn around. After saying that, he left, for fear of alarming the guests inside, and it would be very embarrassing for him to go out and see the dishes outside.

Finally, when both sides had finished eating, the family cleared out of the yard, and the negotiations finally began.

Zhan Dongrong led a large number of people out of the hall: "Your Excellency, it's time for us to talk about the topic. ”

Chenxing smiled: "I've been waiting for a long time." Zhan Dongrong said: "The old man wants to introduce a few distinguished guests first-" Chenxing immediately shook his hand: "The younger generation doesn't want to know any distinguished guests at present, just because what is currently fighting is a reason, what you want is justice, if you know each other first and hear about the identity of the other party, you will be restrained." ”

Zhan Dongrong said angrily: "These are all famous people in the rivers and lakes, and they will definitely not take sides." Chenxing said: "I understand. It's not that I can't trust them, but I'm worried that they will sell face to talk about friendship and act as peacemakers, and if I don't agree, I'll offend others; If I agreed, I would be sorry for my conscience, so I would rather not admit it. Zhan Dongrong suddenly complained: "You seem to think that I am wronged? ”

Chenxing replied: "If the masters can penetrate the world and not be overwhelmed by your power, then they can't find my fault." I don't want to know the friends you've invited, and that's why I might be able to make some reasonable demands on them before I know who they are, or else I'll be trying to make them feel like I'm trying to embarrass them. ”

Zhan Dongrong pointed at Chenxing: "You seem to be ......" suddenly felt that his fingers seemed to be slightly numb.

Look at the star again, as if nothing happened. The numbness of his fingers disappeared, as if it was Zhan Dongrong's own illusion.

Chen Xing still talked eloquently: "I'm just saying that I didn't know any of these people I invited myself in advance, and some of them are not even from the rivers and lakes, so I can make a fair judgment." I only want two answers, right or wrong, not for people to be peacemakers. ”

Zhan Dongrong asked, "What about after you distinguish between right and wrong?" And what to do? ”

Chen Xing smiled: "This is very difficult to say, if it is my fault, I might as well admit my mistake to you and ask your son to punch me back a few times; It's better to be a song in the seniors, just look at how the seniors say, and the juniors don't dare to ask for anything. ”

Zhan Dongrong didn't dare to respond, he found that Chenxing was a difficult person, as if he was fully sure, if he was impulsive, he would also agree to similar conditions, but it would be too good. He said tactfully: "The old body will naturally have an explanation!" Now—"

Chenxing interjected: "It's better to invite the two Linglang out first." After all, they are the parties involved, and they are more aware of what happened. Zhan Dongrong angrily waved his two sons out, the one who was beaten by Chenxing, there was still a plaster on the bridge of his nose, and half of his cheek was still swollen, which showed that the punch was not light.

The two young masters were hostile to Chenxing, and their eyes were full of anger, but they were also a little timid, after all, they were weak-hearted, and this time the situation had expanded to make them uneasy.

Chen Xing didn't care about waving his hand, and made a circle around: "Everyone, I was worshipping in the Martial God Temple, and I suddenly saw these two young masters flirting with a girl. Chenxing didn't hold back, so he punched him, what happened like this, is there anything wrong? ”

The last sentence was for the two young masters of the Zhan family. The elder brother had a crooked nose and could not understand what he could speak, and the younger brother replied, "This is the case...... But that girl is the daughter of our long-term worker Xu Gua, we grew up together, and we are used to jokes. ”

Chenxing sneered: "I don't know if you guys are used to making this kind of joke. The younger brother said coldly: "Then maybe you should ask before you make a move." Chenxing replied, "Do you need to ask more?" Your brother grabbed her arm and wanted to kiss her, and she cried and struggled, which shows that he was not willing to be teased by you. For that alone, you will be taught a lesson. ”

Zhan Dongrong sank his face and said, "The behavior of the little dog is not considered, but the old body is next to it." If you want to teach a lesson, it should be up to the old body to do it himself. ”

Chen Xing said: "It is precisely because you are here that they should be beaten well." The girl's crying was so loud that no one could hear it, but no one heard it. And your two young masters still dare to be so presumptuous even though they know that you are nearby, so you can see how you usually upbring your son. ”

Zhan Dongrong lowered his voice: "Xiaoxia is going to investigate the crime of poor upbringing?" Chenxing replied. of. If the seniors could discipline them well, they would not have become such evil youths. ”

At this time, an old man said: "Chen Shaoxia! The two Zhan Shi brothers have a young temper and are fun, but they also know that self-love is by no means evil. ”

Chenxing looked at the old man: "Mr. is helping Zhan's seniors?" Or is it to be just? ”

The old man said, "The old body is here to do justice." It was only because the old man knew the two little brothers that he said two words of justice for them. The Iron Leg King Kong recognized that it was also an old man, so he explained to Chenxing in a low voice.

Chen Xing smiled when he heard this, and hugged his fist to the old man: "The old gentleman naturally doesn't talk casually, but you don't stay with them from time to time, I'm afraid you will be a little blinded." The younger generation can put forward a lot of human evidence to prove that it is not too much to say about them. Old man Ye, stand up and say! Don't be afraid, I'll call the shots for you. ”

Old man Ye finally dared to stand up after a few bowls of yellow soup, pointing out that the brothers of the Zhan family often went out of the city to hunt with some friends, and once kicked over his sugar burden. There is also a vegetable grower who has been trampled on the vegetable garden, and he has been whipped a horse.

After the start, people followed. Grandma Hu, who was sewing clothes, was also swept down by their horse and was injured and lay in bed for half a month. Xiao Huilian, who sells flowers, was teased by them endlessly. San'er, who sells wontons, made a marriage with Huilian and stepped forward to solve Huilian's problem, but he was also beaten.

There are also guys in the restaurant, who complained that the two young masters often beat him in order to wait poorly, or that he counted too much money for wine. In fact, the two brothers have accounts in several restaurants in the city, and they pay a little when they are happy, and hang up when they are unhappy.

The people in the restaurant know their temper and generally don't dare to ask for it. But occasionally they have to look for buddy's bad luck.

In fact, there are few evildoers in the city, and they are not the only two brothers, but they are the leaders among them, because they all know martial arts, their foundations are still very hard, and they have the support of their fathers. People have the biggest opinion of them.

One by one, dozens of charges were sued. Not only Zhan Dongrong's face was as pale as earth, but the two young masters also changed their expressions greatly. I didn't expect Chenxing to move in with this group of people, shaking out such a mess.

It wasn't until the last person finished speaking that Chen Xingfang said: "Thinking about what happened that day, I did have some Meng Lang, and I didn't understand." So I inquired a little more and finally came to the conclusion that they really deserved to be taught a lesson. ”

Zhan Dongrong's face turned pale, he walked in front of his son, and said sharply: "Two beasts! Get down on my knees. People say you've made mistakes, what do you have to say? ”

In fact, there is nothing special about the charges charged. When young people from good backgrounds are together, they always have to make some trouble. Ordinary people don't dare to sue. But under Chenxing's search, sue together, and the weight is large.

The witness showed that the two young masters knelt down with pale faces. Zhan Dongrong was about to beat him down with his fist, looking like he couldn't kill the two unscrupulous sons under his fist. It's just that the fist hasn't fallen yet, and Chenxing suddenly takes a step forward.

He moved too fast, and Zhan Dongrong jumped aside when he wanted to sneak attack, raising his fist to defend against him. How do you know that Chenxing made a move.

Zhan Dongrong was stunned and asked, "What is Xiaoxia doing here?" Chen Xing replied: "The younger generation knows that the seniors are strict in governing the family, and I am afraid that they don't know Ling Lang's behavior, so they should have the courage to ask for the lives of the two young masters." They are still very young, as long as they can change their ways, they will be very good. Ask the seniors to give them another chance, if they are still like this in time, it is not too late for the seniors to die again. ”

This hand is very beautiful, he actually pleaded for the other party's son, and gave Lu Dafang enough faces, showing that in Chenxing's eyes, he is a selfless and upright gentleman who can kill his relatives with righteousness.

Of course, Zhan Dongrong didn't want to kill his son, but for the sake of his status and reputation, he was forced to this point, and if he didn't kill him, he would have to knock his son unconscious.

Chenxing pleaded like this, Zhan Dongrong naturally couldn't hold on any longer, he was moved and guilty, and thanked Chenxing deeply. One day, the anger turned into peace, and the people who came to justice hurriedly praised both of them, praising both Chenxing for his righteousness and Zhan Dongrong's selflessness.

Chen Xing became the guest of honor of the Zhan family, and the two young masters stepped forward to thank him for his intercession and thanked him for his teachings.

That fist, of course, was in vain, but the two young people were indeed in awe and awe of Chenxing.

Chenxing only said his identity as a messenger for Si Ling at this time, and the people in one place knelt down and kowtowed, admiring him even more. The group talked about wine and talked happily, and pulled up the family routine.

The two young masters of the Zhan family were first angry with Chenxing, then in awe, and then introduced him as a confidant, talking about local fun places, there is a Xuande Mountain, and there is a small river at the foot of the mountain.

The river is clear, flows over bluestone slabs, and pours into a pool.

There are soft-shelled turtles in the pool, and at noon on a sunny day, the soft-shelled turtles will crawl out of the pool lazily and dry their covers on the shore. (To be continued.) )
