Chapter 131: Becoming an Old Man

"Why?" Wu Chengxu cares very much as he encounters his little cousin, and he also hopes to do something for his aunt and cousin?

"Every time Ancheng Bofu treats people and goes out to visit, they are their second sons, and most people in Handu now only know that there is a second son in Ancheng Bofu, and they don't know that there is also a big son, what do you mean by me?" Liu Haihua has already said it so bluntly, what else does he not understand, unless he is really a fool, he will not understand, and Liu Haihua doesn't want to say anything more.

Wu Chengxu also knew more or less about these situations, and then he knew that things were really like that when he looked at the brothers all nodded, the people in Ancheng Bofu were really hateful, they just didn't take their aunt and cousin to heart, and they didn't take Wu'anhou Mansion in their eyes.

"But my aunt has never been a tough person, she is a soft-hearted person, even if she receives more hardships and grievances, she will only cry silently." Wu Chengxu was very disappointed in his aunt, disappointed in her forbearance, disappointed in her self-deception, disappointed that she still had hope in that person.

Zhang Zhen looked at Wu Chengxu's sad eyes and knew what his embarrassment was, looking at Luo Kun's innocent appearance, he didn't want Luo Kun to be bullied, he thought about it and said: "My mother loves to hold banquets the most, I will mention to her about Luo Kun's cousin and your aunt when I go back, my mother is the most distressed about such a thing, and she will definitely give your aunt a post in the future, with my mother's guidance, your aunt will definitely be reborn." ”

"Thank you, with the persuasion of the county lord of Langhua, my aunt may really be able to be tough." Wu Chengxu knew the scheming and methods of Zhang Zhen's mother, the county lord of Langhua, if his aunt really followed the county lord of Langhua, maybe his mind would really change a lot, and the county lord of Langhua was notoriously powerful in Handu.

"Don't take it to heart, it's just a little thing, my mother also likes to make friends, just so you can let your aunt talk to my mother, and find something for my mother to do, so that I don't just wipe dominoes every day." The lord of Langhua has nothing to do now, and when he is bored, he teaches those warblers and Yanyan at home, and the rest of the time is very lonely, so he can only hold banquets often to pass the time.

"Luo Kun, since you call me brother, your business is my business, my brother tells you a word, everyone's kindness to you is not necessarily really good, you have to look at people and things, see clearly the people who are really good to you, your grandmother's kindness to you is just to corrode your ability, over time, even if you are the eldest grandson, the patriarch of Ancheng Bofu will not let you inherit Ancheng Bofu, and at that time, you and your mother will not have any status in Ancheng Bofu, you will only be bullied, are you willing? Willingly? ”

Liu Haihua is more and more attentive to Luo Kun's little brother, he has no younger brother, and he has never enjoyed the fun of being a younger brother, and Luo Kun's 'brother' completely touched his heartstrings, he is willing to use the warmest strength to protect Luo Kun's innocence, and he is also willing to plan for Luo Kun's future.

"Brother Haihua, I know that my grandmother's kindness to me is different, every time my second brother and I are in her yard, she will ask Sister Fenglan to take the second brother to the study, and leave me by her side to accompany her to wipe dominoes or teach me to gamble, and I said that I want to go to see the second brother or take the second brother over to play together, she will be angry, just like the second mother in the house looks at me exactly the same, but only for a short time." Although Luo Kun is simple, he also understands that the people in the mansion treat him differently from Luo Qi, he can feel the difference inside, even if he is innocent, he is also sensitive.

These words were all expected by Wu Chengxu, he knew that what his cousin said was only a tiny part of it, Liu Haihua smiled lightly and said: "Luo Kun, if you are willing to play with your brothers in the future, as long as it is suitable for the occasion with you, your brother will send you a post, even if you go back to Ancheng Uncle's Mansion, you will have the opportunity to play with us." ”

The rest of the people also said to each other that they would take his younger brother with him at any time, which also made Luo Kun moved, the crystal clear in his eyes was crumbling, out of his cousins, he had never met someone so good to him, and his heart was warm like the warm sun in March shining into his heart.

"Luo Kun, don't thank you brothers, you won't have to be alone in the future." Wu Chengxu understood Liu Haihua's thoughts as soon as he heard it, no matter which one of the people here is more powerful than Ancheng Bofu, Liu Haihua is the sister-in-law of the Duke of Qi, Zhang Zhen's mother is the lord of Langhua, and Yu Xiao is the son of the eldest princess of Jinghe, the people in this are not something that Ancheng Bofu can offend, even if Mrs. Luo is reluctant, she doesn't dare to stop Luo Kun, the number of times the post comes to the door, Uncle Luo will also weigh the meaning, and will not let Mrs. Luo be partial.

Luo Kun didn't know the deep meaning, but he was also happy to think that he could go out with his brothers, and when he was pushed by his cousin, he immediately smiled and said: "Thank you, brothers, Luo Kun is so happy!" ”

Seeing Luo Kun's smiling face, the melancholy in his eyes was all joy, Liu Haihua and Zhang Zhen were also happy in their hearts, they were willing to take care of this innocent younger brother, and they also secretly made a note that after they went back, they would let their mother or grandmother take care of Wu Qinglan, the eldest young lady of Ancheng Bofu, so that they could also improve their own weight for Luo Kun's mother and son.

"Then when you see us later, you have to call our brother a few more times." Yu Xiao is the youngest son of the eldest princess Jinghe, and there is an older brother and sister in front of him, and he has never enjoyed the taste of being an elder brother.

Without Wu Chengxu's introduction, Luo Kun didn't know what to call Yu Xiao's brother, and even looked at Wu Chengxu several times, but Wu Chengxu deliberately pretended not to see it, but Luo Kun was in a hurry, and looked at Yu Xiao with a red face and whispered 'brother', Wu Chengxu couldn't help but smile, thinking that his cousin was raised so cute.

"Alas, I really deserve to be my brother's good brother, Brother Ming'er sent you a post to my house, and my brother took you to the Gyeonggi camp to teach you horseback archery." Yu Xiao and Luo Ling's relationship is an iron buddy, and his eldest brother is also in the Gyeonggi camp, he often sneaks to the Gyeonggi camp alone to ride a horse and hunt.

"Oh, Luo Kun, I'm so good to you, why can't I compare to Yu Xiao's bastard boy, you call him brother, and call me Brother Haihua, I'm jealous, what should I do?" Liu Haihua pretended to be very aggrieved and looked at Luo Kun pitifully, scaring Luo Kun so much that he really offended this brother, but he didn't know what to do in his heart, his eyes turned several times, and he bit his lower lip.

After a while, I heard Luo Kun say in a hurry: "You are all my brothers, you are so good to Luo Kun, Luo Kun doesn't want to make you unhappy." ”

It was this casual remark that made several people receive unprecedented warmth, everyone is the son of a noble family, how can they not know the warmth and coldness of the world, the family in the family, intrigues, and the warmth on the surface are the sharp knives behind them, but they were moved by the simplicity of this younger brother who met for the first time.

"Yes, we're all your brothers." Several people said their heartfelt words to Luo Kun in unison, they had never been so emotional.

Yu Xiao stepped forward and grabbed Luo Kun and said: "That's it, tomorrow I will pick you up at your house, I don't believe that the old witch of your family dares not to let you go, the little master has been walking in the capital for so many years, who are you afraid of, don't think she is an old woman, I don't dare to beat her like this, there is a kind of her going to the scene and the eldest princess's mansion to sue me." ”

Yu Xiao is a little overlord, he and Qiao Pre are on par, both of them are not afraid of things, these days I didn't go to Qiao Pre to play, but it has stopped a lot, this met the things that made him atmosphere, he has secretly decided in his heart to wait to see Qiao Pre, he must tell Qiao Pre such an indignant thing, he has learned Wu Chengxu to call Mrs. Luo Old Witch, you know how much he looks down on her.

Liu Haihua saw Yu Xiao muttering there alone, and didn't know what to say, so he asked, "Ah Xiao, what are you talking about mysteriously and babbling?" ”

"I haven't met Qiao Cheng much recently, and when Qiao Pre comes back from Xishan Villa in two days, I must tell him about this matter, Qiao Pre and I will definitely avenge Luo Kun's younger brother, you can rest assured." Yu Xiao will definitely be able to join forces with Qiao Pre to destroy the old witch with a package ticket.

"Then dare to be kind, with you and Qiao Yu, who would dare to bully Luo Kun's younger brother?" Liu Haihua is holding Yu Xiao and blowing, but there is really a combination of Qiao Pre and Yu Xiao, and no one in the whole Han dares to touch the tiger's ass, unless he is impatient.

However, what caught Liu Haihua's attention the most was that Yu Xiao said that Qiao Pre came back from the Xishan Courtyard, that is, Qiao Pre is now in Xishan, and the relationship between Qiao Pre and Princess Xiaoyang is very good, with Princess Xiaoyang's means, it is not a problem to let Qiao Pre go to Xishan to save a person, is it really related to Qiao Pre that Guo Ran's disappearance is really related to Qiao Pre, if it is really like that, this matter is much simpler, with Qiao Pre's intervention, even if Jiang is angry, he will not dare to take any action, and Qiao Pre and Yu Xiao have been inseparable since they grew up wearing crotch pants, What Yu Xiao said must be true.

Liu Haihua thought of these things, and glanced in the direction of Cheng Qingyuan, Cheng Qingyuan also looked at Liu Haihua after hearing what Yu Xiao said, and looked at each other, Liu Haihua nodded lightly, to show his affirmation of his doubts, hoping to completely dispel the doubts in his heart.

With Liu Haihua's signal, Cheng Qingyuan was completely relieved, it would be easy to handle if it was really Qiao Sigongzi, and his cousin would come back safely in two days.

"Everyone, it's not too early, why don't we change places, and then we go to the Allure Tower, and we don't get drunk and don't return, what's the matter?" Liu Haihua saw that the wine and food were almost there, and he already knew about what he wanted to investigate, and he had already said everything he needed to say, and even solved two big things.

As soon as Zhang Zhen and Yu Xiao heard that they were going to the Allure Tower, they were immediately interested, the sparks in their eyes were full of sparks, and they hurriedly said: "Okay, good, I'll go to the Allure Tower, I'm not going to go back today, I haven't drunk this pear blossom yet, the Blue Moon girl must be fruit wine this time, and I'm not drunk yet!" ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, Qingyuan will not go with you, the elders in the family still have something to order, take your leave!" Cheng Qingyuan was about to leave as soon as he heard that they were going to Allure Tower, he also knew what kind of place Allure Tower was, even if the reputation was particularly good, he would never go to that kind of place, the family rules of the family have always been like this, not to mention that he is not a woman, and he is about to get married, he is not willing to be one of those women who will accompany him for life, and after listening to Luo Kun's experience, he is also ashamed of those men who can't start and finish well, he doesn't want to be such a person.

The people present all knew the strange family rules of Chengfu, and they also talked about it, and now Cheng Qingyuan was about to leave as soon as he heard the mention of the Qinglou, Zhang Zhen was a person who couldn't wait to stay in the flower building, seeing that Cheng Qingyuan hurriedly shirked the appearance and said with a look of hatred: "You, you don't even go to the Qinglou, what fun do you have at all?" Don't say anything else, come with us tonight, and we're guaranteed to get you drunk and die. ”

"No need, there are still things in the house, and everyone knows the rules of my mansion, Qingyuan, as a member of the Cheng family, should naturally follow the rules of the family, and I hope you Haihan." Cheng Qingyuan bowed his hand to everyone, and prepared to leave the private room with a slight apology, he had his own bottom line, and he would not touch it no matter what.

Before Cheng Qingyuan reached the door of the private room, he suddenly turned around and said, "Brother Chang, aren't you leaving?" Uncle Yi seems to be still playing chess with my grandfather in the mansion, are you sure you won't go with me? ”

Li Mochang listened to Cheng Qingyuan's words and immediately deflated in his heart, he didn't dare to commit a crime against the wind, his father's temper was too hot, if he didn't pay attention to it, he copied books or copied a lot of books, today he still took a step back and opened the sky, Cheng Qingyuan's kid is a person who is not good at lying, as soon as he tells a lie, his eyes are dodging unconsciously, his ears are red, and he knows at a glance that what he said is false or true, if his father asks a little, won't he be exposed.

"Brothers, I'll go with Qingyuan, the two of us will go by the way, he has been afraid to walk at night since he was down, I will give him courage, let's 'get drunk and dream to die' together next time." Li Mochang hurriedly ran to Cheng Qingyuan's side to make his position clear, he didn't want to be reprimanded by his father again, so it was better to go back with Cheng Qingyuan.

"Oh!" Yu Xiao glanced at Li Mochang meaningfully, and said I understand everything, don't explain, explanation is to cover up, to cover up your weakness.

Li Mochang followed Cheng Qingyuan with an innocent and pitiful face and reluctantly left the downstairs, seeing Zhang Zhen and Yu Xiao laughing heartily, next time he must learn what he looks like today in front of Li Mochang, it is like a gas bag.

Seeing Li Mochang and Cheng Qingyuan leaving, although Wu Chengxu also wanted to go to the Allure Tower, but Luo Kun was still by his side, he definitely couldn't take Luo Kun to the Allure Tower, he couldn't bear the pain and said: "Brother Hua, Ah Xiao, Ah Yu, I won't go either, there will be time in the future, I will send my cousin back to Ancheng Bofu first, otherwise my aunt should be worried." ”

Although Wu Chengxu was very disappointed in his aunt Wu Qinglan, he was reluctant to make her sad and worried, and still wanted to send Luo Kun back to Anchengbo's Mansion as soon as possible, hoping that it would not cause some unnecessary trouble, there were a lot of troubles in Anchengbo's Mansion, and he didn't want to mess with them.

"In that case, you should send your cousin back quickly, if there is any conflict, don't be impulsive, everything is based on your cousin, you have to believe that with Ah Xiao and Qiao pre-present, there will be more and more troubles in Anchengbo's Mansion, they will only take care of themselves, why should you be like them." Liu Haihua has a long-term view, since Yu Xiaoyou has already been talking about telling Qiao Pre, and Princess Xiaoyang will definitely know what Qiao Pre knows, Princess Xiaoyang has been tireless in trouble recently, maybe the next one to suffer will be Ancheng Bofu.

"Yes, I see, Brother Hua."

"Luo Kun, you have to remember what Brother Haihua said to you, don't let others take your innocence for stupidity, you know?" Liu Haihua has infinite tenderness as long as he faces Luo Kun and Lan Yue, as if he has never been the iron-clad General Liu who fought on the battlefield before.

"I know, Brother Haihua, thank you brothers for being kind to me!" Luo Kun is a sensible child, otherwise how could he be raised by Mrs. Luo so crookedly, it can be seen that he is still smart and clever.

The two cousins thanked Liu Haihua and others for taking care of Luo Kun, and also left the Tianxia Mansion, and went to Anchengbo's Mansion with a nervous heart, while Luo Kun had been hiding behind Wu Chengxu, even if he got into the carriage.

"Cousin, these brothers I saw today are all worthy of trust, there is no need to doubt their kindness to you, they are all cousin's best friends for many years, even if that old witch really has other thoughts about you and your mother in the future, you don't have to be afraid, even if your cousin can't do anything, those brothers will try their best to help you, do you understand?" Wu Chengxu hopes that through tonight, Luo Kun can truly integrate into his circle of friends.

"Luo Kun knows, cousin."

The ingots outside the carriage listened to the words of his master and the little cousin, and couldn't help but secretly curse the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of Ancheng Bofu, they couldn't look down on such a kind person as the young master, but they took a fancy to the little annoying spirit who was in front of him and behind the back, isn't that the little ghost a cheap life!

As soon as Wu Chengxu and Luo Kun left, the only ones left were Liu Haihua, Zhang Zhen and Yu Xiao, and it was not interesting for the three of them to go back at this time, so they decided to go up to the city tower to listen to a little song, drink a little wine, and continue to have fun.

"Alas, I forgot to tell Luo Kun that Ming'er will pick him up at the time of Mochen, what can I do?" Already out of the downstairs, Yu Xiao remembered what he had forgotten, he just felt as if he was missing something, it turned out that he had forgotten such an important matter.

At this time, Wu Chengxu and Luo Kun were already far away from the distance between the upper floor of the world and the Allure Tower, Yu Xiao couldn't, so he had to give up, and hung his head sullenly.

"What's there to worry about, just wait for Ming'er to come to the door directly, and the people from his Ancheng Bofu dare to stop you?" Liu Haihua knows this person's temperament best, if he doesn't figure it out, he will be so listless and depressed tonight, and then he told him a simple and rude method, which is also a method that Yu Xiao often uses.

was reminded by Liu Haihua like this, Yu Xiao also felt that this was a good way, no matter what to do, the people of Ancheng Bofu treated Luo Kun so much, so he didn't want to give face to those shameless people, could it be that the people of Ancheng Bofu dared to disagree with him, and he was not something they could bully at will.

"Let's go, no matter, we won't get drunk on the city tower." Zhang Zhen put his arm on Yu Xiao's shoulder, he didn't care about Yu Xiao's troubles, what else was there to worry about in front of the wine and beauties, wasn't it something that could be solved by getting drunk with a few cups of pear blossoms.

The three of them hooked their shoulders and walked towards the city tower without style, Liu Haihua was not in a hurry to go home, the sky had not changed, the excitement in the house had not yet begun, and it was not interesting to go back, but it might cause trouble, and his eccentric mother had a big brain.

When the three of them went up to the Allure Tower, listened to a little song, and drank pear blossoms and got drunk, Cheng Qingyuan and Li Mochang had just returned to Chengfu through the night, and Cheng Qingyuan was too shocked to know what happened today, and he must not let other people in the mansion know, especially his grandfather and grandmother.

"Brother Chang, you just haven't heard of your cousin's affairs, today you just went to meet friends, talk about wine and sing about wine, you should forget everything!" Cheng Qingyuan was worried that Li Mochang would say something wrong, and he still didn't forget to remind him the moment he entered the mansion.

Li Mochang has been 'reminded' by Cheng Qingyuan all the way to the point that his ears are calloused, he knows that this is a very important thing, but he can't stand Cheng Qingyuan from treating him as an idiot, and hurriedly said: "I know, you have been talking all the way, can I forget?" Why are you such a mother-in-law today. ”

Cheng Qingyuan didn't answer, he raised his leg and entered the house, Li Mochang had to follow quickly, the two went straight to the Siwu Courtyard, grandfather and Uncle Yi must have played against each other in the Siwu Courtyard, Cheng Qingyuan and Li Mochang entered the house when the chess game of the old man Cheng was not over, and the two had to stand quietly and watch the chess silently.

"Who are you going out to gather friends today?" After the old man Cheng won this game, he gave up, Li Yi quietly packed up the chessboard, he knew his teacher's habits, and allowed people who had to be close to him to touch his things, especially those things that he carried, he stayed by the old man's side for so many years, this little thing can still be understood, and this is his most respected and most grateful teacher, even if he has become a member of the court now, he still has not forgotten his original intention.

Cheng Qingyuan was slightly stunned, he didn't expect his grandfather to ask about his private affairs, but there had never been something before, could it be that he knew some news, Uncle Yi is the secretary of Dali Temple, Jing Zhaoyin's people will inevitably not want to get rid of a headless public case and upload it to the Criminal Department or Dali Temple, but Uncle Yi is a person with a sense of proportion and the overall situation, even if he knows some things, he will not tell his grandfather without authorization.
