Chapter 538: Fighting for Breath

Lu Ruobei's mood was terrible.

Yesterday, Master Lin invited him to come over and clearly told him that the Lin family would no longer embarrass the Lu family, and their cooperation ended here.

No matter how Lu Ruobei persuaded him, Master Lin insisted on not allowing it.

After returning from the Lin Mansion, Lu Ruo locked himself in the house in a huff and didn't say a word. He didn't know what kind of wind Master Lin was smoking, but he wanted to let go of the Lu family under the good situation, so that his wishful thinking was completely in vain.

Is it just a matter of letting go?

No!

Lu Ruobei is not a person who easily admits defeat, and the shame of being kicked out of the Lu family back then cannot be just settled. There is only one way to wash away the shame, and that is to be the head of the Lu family and let everyone in the Lu family look up to him.

In order to realize this idea, Lu Ruobei can pay any price.

Soon, Lu Ruobei made up his mind: even without the help of the Lin family, he would do it on his own.

……

When he came out of Lu Ruoliang's house, Lu Wuji was a little ignorant.

He didn't expect that just one Lin Mansion's election of relatives would change his life again.

Lu Ruoliang's words seemed to sound in his ears again: "Nonsense, let it go, although you can't win the Lin family, you can't let them underestimate the Lu family!" ”

When he spoke, Lu Ruoliang's tone was comforting, and there was unbearability and sympathy in his eyes, as if Lu Wuji had lost to the Lin family.

Lu Wuji cursed Master Lin hatefully in his heart: Is this guy's brain in water, and he has to compare with himself with some dice, abacus and cockfighting, what does the future of the Lu family have to do with me?

Coming out of the main house, he didn't take a few steps, and Lu Wushu saw that Lu Wushu was standing in front of the hanging flower door of the Sanjin Courtyard.

"Second brother, why are you here!" Lu Wuji didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly saluted Lu Wuxian.

"Fourth brother, I'm waiting for you here!" Lu Wuxian's tone was mixed with an inexplicable taste.

"Second brother, is there something wrong?"

Lu Wuxian solemnly patted Lu Wuji's shoulder: "Fourth brother, I know this matter is very troublesome, losing is certain, I just hope you stand up straight, don't lie down!" ”

After speaking, Lu Wuxian nodded to him and turned to leave.

Looking at Lu Wuji's departing figure, Lu Wuji felt depressed in his heart, where did this matter.

Back in the house, Xu hurriedly greeted him.

Lu Ruoliang specially called her son to talk about things, this was the first time, of course she couldn't rest assured.

After hearing Lu Wuji's words, Xu Shi breathed a sigh of relief and said with a relaxed face: "What should I do!" Master Lin can propose to compete with you, which can be regarded as giving you face, can't we still lose if we can't win? ”

Lu Wunon listened and was completely speechless.

"Tuk Tuk!" There was a knock at the door.

Xu Shi opened the door and saw that it was Lu Wufang.

"Aunt Xu, I'm looking for nonsense!"

"Miss, please come in!" Xu hurriedly let Lu Wufin into the house.

"Nonsense, what happened last time, sister, thank you!" Lu Wufang stared at Lu Wufang.

"It's my sister's luck, this has nothing to do with me!" Of course, Lu Wuji could not admit that the matter had anything to do with him.

"You don't even say that your sister knows, you must have helped your sister in this matter!" Lu Wuflaw said worriedly: "Sister is just trying to persuade you, don't take the competition too seriously, if you lose, you will lose, and if you crush your body, it will not be worth it!" ”

"Who says I'm going to lose?" Lu Wuji couldn't help but say loudly.

Lu Wuflaw was stunned.

Seeing this, Xu hurriedly reprimanded: "Nonsense, how can you talk to Miss, don't you hurry up and compensate Miss!" ”

"Aunt Xu, don't worry, nonsense may be in a bad mood!" Lu Wuflaw gave Xu a reassuring look.

Lu Wuflaw came to comfort himself, but he was angry with her, which really shouldn't be. Lu Wuji came back to his senses and looked at Lu Wufang apologetically: "Sister, I'm in a bad mood, I shouldn't be angry at you!" I'm sorry! ”

After that, Lu Wuji said to Xu: "Auntie, I'll go out for a walk, and I'll be back in a while!" ”

Looking at Lu Wuji's back and disappearing outside the door, Lu Wufang and Xu looked at each other speechlessly.

Lu Wushu is indeed in a bad mood.

Isn't it just a competition with the Lin family, Lu Wuji didn't take it seriously. But everyone seemed to think that they would definitely lose, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

Lu Wuji found Lu Yuxiao and said bluntly: "Third uncle, let's go, let's go to Youzhou City!" ”

"Nonsense, it's still early on the first day of June!" Lu Yuxiao said with a smile, "The Lin family proposed a competition, giving you a big reason, you can go to play openly these days, what are you anxious about?" ”

"Play, play, play your size!" Lu Wuji stared at Lu Yuxiao, and his tone was not good: "Do you also think that I will definitely lose to the Lin family?" ”

"Do you still want to win?" Lu Yuxiao's eyes widened.

Lou is nonsensical. The end of the world

It's okay for others to think so, Lu Yuxiao, who is inseparable every day, also thinks that Lu Wuji has lost, and Lu Wuji's competitiveness has been completely stimulated.

He secretly made up his mind: no matter what, he would try to win the Lin family, so that these people could see that he was not as bad as they imagined.

Lu Wuji no longer paid attention to Lu Yuxiao and turned his head away.

Lu Yuxiao was inexplicable, he didn't know how Lu Wuji could be so angry, and hurriedly shouted: "Wuji, wait for me!" ”

……

Mu Qianren followed behind Chang Zhang's head, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After a while, he was uncertain and said, "You said that Master Lin invited the two of us to come over, why is this?" ”

"How do I know?" Chang turned his head and said lightly, "What are you afraid of, I'm here!" ”

When he said this, he often felt strange in his heart. Master Lin rarely invited himself to his house, and asked Mu Qianren to go with him by name, which was the first time.

"With your words, I'm relieved!" Mu Qianren couldn't see a reassuring expression on his face at all.

In the living room of the Lin Mansion, Master Lin stared at Chang Jiao and said, "I want to borrow your chicken herd for use, what do you think?" ”

"Borrow a chicken herd for it?"

Chang glanced at Mu Qianren, and said secretly in his heart: Did Master Mo Feilin fall in love with Mu Qianren?

He asked tentatively, "How do you borrow it?" ”

Master Lin smiled slightly: "On the first day of June, I made an appointment with someone to fight cocks, and I know Mu Jiqi's ability, and I want to borrow him to fight for me, and he will go back to you after the game." As for the remuneration, it will be a thousand taels of silver. ”

"It's as simple as that?" He often looks unconvinced.

"Do you think it's complicated?" Master Lin asked rhetorically.

After pondering for a moment, he often looked at Mu Qianren: "What is your opinion?" ”

"I always listen to you!" Mu Qianren said respectfully.

After Chang turned his head and Mu Qianren left, Lu Xiaoxian slowly paced out from behind the screen with his hands behind his back.

Master Lin smiled bitterly and said: "Master Lu, to be honest, I don't care as much about this Lu Wuli as you do!" I'm really convinced! ”

"The edge of the sword comes from the sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold." Lu Xiaoxian said lightly: "People's biggest enemy is often not others, but themselves. God will not favor a person for no reason, only after experiencing countless failures and tribulations, can we truly stand in this world! ”

Master Lin opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything.

Back then, his master seemed to have sharpened him like this, if it weren't for those hardships and hardships back then, he wouldn't be where he is today.

Coming out of the Lin Mansion, Mu Qianren and Chang came to his residence.

Chang sat his head in front of the stone table in the courtyard, frowned and asked, "What do you say Master Lin is going to do?" ”

Mu Qianren smiled: "Didn't Master Lin say it, he wants me to help him go cockfighting!" ”

"A cockfight deserves his caution? It's not that simple! Chang shook his head, "You don't know him, I can feel it, there must be something wrong here!" ”

While talking, Lu Wuji and Lu Yuxiao entered the courtyard.

"Chang Tou, you're there too! It just so happens that I have something to discuss with you and Brother Mu! Lu Wuji looked expectant, sat on the stone bench next to him, and explained his intention.

After listening to Lu Wuji, Chang turned his head and stood up suddenly: "Nonsense, I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry to leave now, you and Xiao Mu discuss it slowly!" ”

Looking at the back of Chang Chang who left as if he was running away, Lu Wuji said strangely: "What's wrong with him?" ”

Mu Qianren smiled bitterly, of course he knew why Chang Tuo wanted to run.

"Brother Mu, you must help me with cockfighting!" Lu Xiaoxian stared at Mu Qianren with a grin.

Mu Qianren looked embarrassed, and said hesitantly: "Nonsense, it's not that I don't help you, but I can't help you." ”

"Why?" Lu asked strangely.

couldn't hide it, Mu Qianren gritted his teeth and told the story of going to the Lin Mansion just now.

"I didn't know that Master Lin was asking you to try cockfighting, you must know that I would definitely not agree to him! Not only can't I help you now, but we're still rivals in the cockfight, don't blame me! Speaking of this, Mu Qianren said apologetically, "I am often embarrassed to face you, so I left under the pretext!" ”

Lu Yuxiao said angrily: "This Master Lin must know that Brother Mu is friendly with Wunon, so he thought of such a lack of moral idea to dig into the corner!" ”

Lu Wuji was silent.

His thoughts had already been seen through by Master Lin, so when Master Lin informed the Lu family of the competition, he had already taken the lead in recruiting Mu Qianren to the Lin Mansion, completely breaking Lu's nonsense thoughts.

If it had been in the past, Lu Wuji would have scolded him a long time ago, but at this time, he was extremely calm. He knows very well that scolding will not solve the problem.

Since Mu Qianren went to help Master Lin, the chances of winning the cockfight were not big, so he could only find a way to roll the dice.

Seeing that Lu was silent, Mu Qianren thought that he was dissatisfied with him, and was about to explain again, but saw Father Xu enter the courtyard.

As soon as he saw Lu Wunon, Father Xu asked directly: "Engong, I heard that you are going to fight cocks with Master Lin, is this true?" ”

Mu Qianren replied for Lu Wunon: "Of course it's true, Master Lin has already asked me to come over just now, let me help him tame the chicken to deal with nonsense." I can't help nonsense, and I have to become an opponent with him, and I don't feel comfortable in my heart, so I don't know how to explain it to him! ”
