Chapter 318: Escape from the Tiger's Mouth
The group returned to the Lu Mansion, and Lu Hongyi and Xue Xue cleaned up and went to General Xue's birthday banquet.
When Lu Cheng saw his son go and return, he was also relieved, called Lu Hongyi to the guest room, and said in front of General Xue: "Hongyi, my father asks you, do you really mean that to that Hong Tao?" ”
"Hmph, what do you mean? I don't understand, I just know that I hate what you like, and I like what you hate. Lu Hong glared at the concubine standing next to Prime Minister Lu Cheng, and said something in his words.
When Prime Minister Lu Cheng saw that Lu Hong answered the question, he was angry enough, and said to General Xue, "If you have anything, just ask him directly, you can also see that he and I don't deal with each other very much." ”
"Hongyi, what do you mean by that person surnamed Hong? You also know Uncle Xue's personality, if you ......" General Xue also understands that emotional matters cannot be forced, if he really doesn't like Xue Xue, then they will break the marriage contract.
Before General Xue's words were finished, Lu Hongyi interrupted, pointed to the concubine beside Prime Minister Lu and said, "Prime Minister Lu, a concubine, do you want to rush her to the point of being boundless?" Young Master Ben is here, she has to get me out of the way, or I'll leave. ”
Prime Minister Lu Cheng snorted and wanted to teach Lu Hongyi a lesson, but in the end he held back and said to the concubine standing beside him, "You go out." ”
The concubine was disliked and went out in obscurity.
When the concubine left, Lu Hongyi said respectfully: "Uncle Xue, why care about the rumors outside, I am not afraid of others saying it, if Uncle Xue is relieved to hand over Xue Xue to me, I will definitely love her in every way, if Uncle Xue is not at ease to hand her over to me, then I will not obstruct it and let her find a good family." ”
General Xue didn't expect Lu Hongyi to say such a thing, so he wouldn't be able to say anything more? "Hey, in fact, Uncle Xue also hopes that your juniors can do well, you also know that the Xue family has many sons and few daughters, and she is left alone in the family to be married, uncle knows that you are a good child, and you have to learn to let go of some things that should be put down."
"Yes, I will definitely follow Uncle Xue's teachings." Lu Hongyi is very docile and obedient, and he will promise whatever General Xue says.
"Since you said that there is no such thing, of course Uncle Xue believes you." General Xue didn't want to say more, he also knew that Lu Hongyi was polite and polite enough to him, just look at his father's treatment.
Lu Hong hooked his lips and smiled, "Then I'll go out first." ”
"Go ahead." General Xue looked at Lu Hongyi's back, the child is a good child, but his heart is too heavy, if he unties this knot, it must be very good.
As soon as Lu Hong went out, he saw that the concubine was still standing outside the door, and snorted very disdainfully, and then took advantage of her unpreparedness to stretch out her feet and trip the concubine and walk away.
Luo Jun and the others returned to the room and fell asleep without saying a word.
"Hey, I stole my life, and none of you even cared about me." Hong Tao was a little dissatisfied, he was still not a friend, he was scared all night, and finally came back, but he didn't have two good words.
Hong Tao's protests went unheeded, and Luo Jun and Li Kezhao were already asleep.
On the opposite side, the wanderer said to Hong Tao: "You are so fateful, I met this good two friends, I heard that you are gone, they almost didn't sleep all night, looking for you everywhere, and I went to look for you again early this morning, I looked at that and called a touch, who can do this to me." ”
Hong Tao heard the homeless man say this, his heart was warm, he didn't expect them to care so much about him, he Hong Tao was really lucky, "It's useless for you to envy." ”
"Hey, how do you know?" The homeless man was a little surprised.
Hong Tao shook his head and said, "I don't know, I guess." ”
"I begged the Bodhisattva all night last night, I hope you don't come back, who knows you're coming back." The homeless man said that he was a little aggrieved, he was so sincere, the Bodhisattva did not show his spirit.
Hong Tao didn't expect this homeless man to be so vicious, so he jumped up all of a sudden, ran to the iron fence of the opposite cell, and stretched out his hand to catch the homeless, "Damn, Lao Tzu killed you, you hurt me twice." ”
"You can't catch me, hehe!" The homeless man is thick-skinned enough, with an expression of what you can't do.
Hong Tao was tied up all night, not to mention how heavy the aggrieved smell was, just when the homeless man touched the muzzle of the gun, "You () again, Lao Tzu asked people to open the cell door and beat you severely." ”
The homeless man was scared at this time, "Good man, good man, I'm talking about fun, don't take it seriously!" ”
"Be careful when you speak in the future, everything is not going well in Hongdu, be careful that I will kill you one day." Hong Tao is gearing up, that is, he is addicted to the skin of his mouth, and by the way, he is just scaring and scaring him.
"Don't dare." The homeless man smiled with a wooden face, and said it in his heart if he wanted to say it in the future.
Hong Tao looked at Luo Jun and Li Kezhao very gratefully, and he secretly swore in his heart that he would definitely live and die with them in the future, "Good brother." ”
Finally, Luo Jun and Li Kezhao woke up, "Hey, I finally slept peacefully." ”
"Thank you for your hard work, causing you to worry about me so much." Hong Tao was very embarrassed, and he was in trouble every time.
Li Kezhao rubbed his neck and asked, "What did you do yesterday?" How did you get tied up? ”
Hong Tao waved his hand, "Don't say it, it's like this, didn't that Lu Hongyi tell me that I am his beloved?" You say I'm a normal man, how can I put up with this? So I weighed it in my heart and decided that I should get out of here. ”
"If you want to leave, you have to tell us, why did you leave alone." Li Kezhao reproached, if he really wants to leave, he won't let him go alone.
Hong Tao's face was full of shame, and said: "I know, I said that you must be willing to go with me, but how can I be willful that you go to eat and sleep with me, so I want to go out to find a job first, and I have been shopping for an afternoon, and I don't have an errand, so I happened to meet some scammers selling fake drugs, I just wanted to ......"
Luo Jun glanced at Hong Tao and said angrily: "You just want to learn from other people's black and eat black, right, and threaten others with selling fake medicines, who knows that stealing chickens will not lead to a handful of rice?" ”
"It's not, I was about to succeed, who knew that I would bite the gold halfway, I was blackmailing the fake Tiger Hall, and the real Tiger Hall came to clean them up, I was more unlucky, I happened to be there, and I was implicated." Hong Tao was embarrassed to say it, but when he thought about how powerful the Tiger Hall was, it was not a shame that he, a small leader of the Silver Club, was kidnapped by others.
Li Kezhao smacked his mouth, "You really let you be right, I didn't expect Hongdu to really have a tiger hall." ”
"But no, what people do is murder, I have no choice in a hurry, I have no choice but to say that I am Lu Hongyi's good friend, otherwise I am afraid that I will not be able to come back." When he said this, Hong Tao was obviously embarrassed, he originally wanted to find a way to get out of here, but he didn't expect that in the end, he had to rely on other people's names to save his life, what a big joke God made.
Li Kezhao looked at Hong Tao, and then said sincerely: "Speaking of which, you are really fateful, and you will not die if you don't die." ”
"Why?" Hong Tao opened his eyes and asked what he meant.
Li Kezhao said slowly: "Do you think that Lu Hong will come to you as soon as he hears the news that you have been kidnapped?" No, originally Lu Hongyi left from General Xue's birthday banquet and rushed back, who knew that people wouldn't save you again, we begged for a long time, and after saying all the good things, they promised to take a hundred taels of silver to ransom you. ”
Hong Tao didn't care when he heard it, smiled indifferently, and said: "Heh, a hundred taels of silver, it's not difficult, just return it to him in the future, I think I was a rich man at the beginning." ”
"Hmph, one hundred taels, your life is more than one hundred taels, your life is precious, I said that you will have a blessing if you don't die, think about it, one thousand taels and one life." In order to show the enormity of the number one thousand taels, Li Kezhao stretched out ten fingers.
Hong Tao exploded when he heard this, slapped the table and said, "What, one thousand taels, he is really good at killing people, you agreed?" ”
"Agreed, Luo Jun agreed without blinking his brows in order to save you." Li Kezhao nodded weakly, the debt is easy to owe, and the debt is difficult to repay.
Hong Tao hugged Luo Jun with emotion, "Good brother, I'm sorry for you, I made trouble along the way, hey, I, one thousand taels, (Mom), in this way, Lu Hong saved Lao Tzu with one hundred taels, not only did he not lose, but he also turned a lot of money, this Lu Hongyi." "Moved by all the anger, this Lu Hongyi will really take advantage of the fire to rob.
"Okay, you come back safe and sound." Luo Jun doesn't have much mood swings, one thousand taels is not a small amount, but as long as he has a heart, one thousand taels is not a difficult thing, if it is really not finished, his juniors can continue to pay it back.
"No, I'm going to go to him and let him forget it." Hong Tao didn't want to pay Lu Hongyi so much money for no reason, a thousand taels was enough for them to enjoy for a lifetime.
Luo Jun stopped Hong Tao, "Okay, the words have been spoken, how can you change it, the gentleman is difficult to chase after a word." ”
"Did you sign any notes?" Hong Tao hurriedly asked nervously.
Luo Jun and Li Kezhao shook their heads, "No, at that time, it was just a verbal agreement, and I was in a hurry to save you, so I didn't care about it." ”
Hong Tao relaxed when he heard this, clapped his hands and said: "Since this is the case, then it's good, there is no evidence, if he asks you for money, but there is no evidence, let's just deny it." ”
Luo Jun frowned, shook his head and said: "What are you talking about, the eldest husband is true to his word, and the verbal promise will be counted, don't worry, I will bear the money, and the exam will be in half a month, you can settle down for a while, just don't go out and run around."
