Liu Zhongwu said: "I said hand me the rice bucket at your feet." ”

Lu Boyan was stunned, leaned over and lifted the rice bucket to the table,

Liu Zhongwu picked up the plate and poured the leftovers on the table into the bucket one by one.

Lu Boyan frowned and said, "Ziwen, what are you doing here?" ”

Liu Zhongwu said: "Eat, what else can you do." As he spoke, he lifted the spoon and ate it.

Lu Boyan smiled and said, "Haven't you eaten yet?" ”

Liu Zhongwu buried his head in eating, and said: "When people are full, it is common for me to not eat for two or three days when I was a child, if there is a big drought, I can only go to ask for food, four brothers, three starved to death, I am a soldier just to eat, you have been a child since you were a child, you will not understand." ”

Hearing him say this, Liu Qi couldn't help but feel sour in his chest outside the door, and thought: "I haven't heard my father say this." ”

Liu Zhongwu has always been not easy to speak, and his background is even poorer, and there is a difference between him and a family like Lu Boyan, and it seems very strange to outsiders that the two can become friends.

I only heard Lu Boyan laugh and said: "But you are not a soldier now, you are a general." ”

Liu Zhongwu said: "They are all acting on orders, and in my opinion, there is no difference." ”

Lu Boyan smiled, didn't mention the matter, and quietly watched him eat.

Outside the door, Lu Jingyuan and the three of them couldn't help but swallow their saliva when they saw Liu Zhongwu holding the rice bucket and eating in a big gulp.

Liu Zhongwu ate an amazing amount of food, and after a while, most of the food in the bucket was gone.

At this time, Lu Boyan suddenly sighed.

Liu Zhongwu frowned and said, "You sigh because you're afraid that I'll eat you?" ”

Lu Boyan smiled slightly and said, "In my place, you can eat as much as you want." ”

Liu Zhongwu said: "Then what are you sighing for no reason?" ”

Lu Boyan said: "I'm thinking about the words of the old handsome talent. ”

Liu Zhongwu nodded, ate the leftovers in the bucket in three or two times, wiped his mouth, and said: "Cai Yuanchang and our old boss Tong Guan joined forces to force away his brother Planter Dao, and since then, this kind of family has been inseparable from the two of them, and there have been more than once or two open and secret fights, what is there to think?" ”

Lu Boyan's eyes narrowed, he didn't speak, he walked to the window, saw the sunset outside the window, and after a while, he turned around and said, "It's going to Tokyo to be eventful, what are your plans?" “

Liu Zhongwu said in a low voice: "Tong Gelding can't believe it, Cai Yuanchang can't believe it, and Gao Taiwei can trust it." “

Lu Boyan's heart froze, he waved his sleeves to extinguish the long lamp behind him, and said in a low voice: "Why? “

Liu Zhongwu said: "Last year, Wang Yu fell, these two people are too deeply involved, and the right talent in the seed master is definitely not drunk, he is obviously here to probe our mouth, he knows that the two of us have been at odds with Tong Gelding recently, and want to kill people with a knife." ”

Lu Boyan sneered: "He's looking for the wrong person, we only have ears, not mouths." “

Liu Zhongwu said: "But Changshan has a long mouth, and he still has a big mouth." “

Lu Boyan's face sank, and he said: "Changshan has been in Tiannan for a long time, and he is used to being casual, but he is not a stupid person, he is smarter than you and me, the three of us have made an appointment to advance and retreat together, and when we arrive in Beijing, you only need to remind him one or two, and tell him not to lose his words in front of the officials." “

Liu Zhongwu frowned and said, "Aren't you going with us?" “

Lu Boyan shook his head and said, "I'll be back two days later." “

Liu Zhongwu said: "Why? “

Lu Boyan said: "I said that I have been ill for nearly half a year, and I am suspected of avoiding war, if someone makes a big fuss about this, it is not good for me, I have asked my wife to go to Beijing first to probe the official's house for me, she has some friendship with Concubine De, and it is always convenient for them to speak." “

Liu Zhongwu said: "You have too many thoughts. “

Lu Boyan said: "It's eventful, it's better to be careful." “

Liu Zhongwu touched his short beard and said, "This time I entered Beijing, in the final analysis, it was for the sake of the juniors, and the Youlan Hunting Meeting was imminent, didn't you call Jing Yuan back?" “

Lu Boyan shook his head and muttered: "The martial artist is dangerous, I sent Jing Yuan to a distant relative who is extremely knowledgeable, hoping that he will succeed in his studies and find another way." “

Liu Zhongwu was stunned when he heard this, and after a while, he nodded and said, "It's okay, although those scholars are in awe of us, they also look down on us in their hearts, I know this." “

Lu Boyan smiled, didn't mention the matter, turned around and re-lit the long lamp.

The two had a secret conversation, the voice was extremely soft and low, Lu Jingyuan and the three of them outside the door pricked up their ears, but they didn't hear clearly, and the room was dark, Lu Jingyuan and the others thought that the two had left, and immediately straightened up to investigate the situation in the room.

As soon as the three of them stood up straight, the lights in the room turned on again, and the shadows of the three immediately hit the door.

Lu Boyan was shocked and shouted, "Who? “

The three of them were taken aback and turned to escape, but it was too late.

Lu Boyan rushed out of the door, and when he saw the three of them, he was angry at first, but when he found that Lu Jingyuan was also among them, he was surprised again, and his anger disappeared.

Seeing that his face was full of joy, Lu Jingyuan smiled and said, "Dad, I'm back." He looked at Liu Zhongwu again and said, "Uncle Liu." Lu Boyan was overjoyed, he didn't care about speaking at the moment, grabbed his shoulder, and looked him up and down. Since last winter, Lu Jingyuan went to the south, and since then few news has been transmitted home, and the father and son have been separated for two seasons, and they are not surprised to see each other.

But when Liu Zhongwu saw Liu Qi's sneaky eyes, he couldn't help but glare at him and said, "Uncle Xin, what are you doing outside the door with your two younger brothers?" ”

Liu Qi was startled, he didn't dare to make eye contact with him, and when his eyes glanced at Tang Zhennan beside him, his heart suddenly moved, and he raised his head and said: "It's Yin Ting, he saw that Jing Yuan was back, so he had to pull him to see him." ”

Tang Zhennan said "ah", and he opened his mouth to deny it, but then said: "Yes, we just arrived at the door, and when we saw that it was dark in the house, we thought there was no one." ”

Hearing the two of them say this, Liu Zhongwu's face sank, obviously disbelieving. But without waiting to ask again, Lu Boyan said: "Brother Liu, it's not early, let's take the two juniors back to the room to rest first." ”

Liu Zhongwu nodded, looked at the two of them and said, "Let's go!" ”

Liu Qi and Tang Zhennan saw that his face was not good, and they couldn't help but glance at each other, and they both felt unlucky.

Lu Jingyuan saw that they were leaving with Liu Zhongwu, and he also felt furious in his heart, and when he turned around, he saw Lu Boyan's face was heavy, and he immediately said with a hippie smile: "Dad, you ......."

As soon as he spoke, Lu Boyan said in a deep voice: "You are eavesdropping on my conversation with your Uncle Liu?" ”

Lu Jingyuan flatly denied it: "No." ”

Lu Boyan's face sank, and he said coldly: "Don't be clever, my conversation with your Uncle Liu is not trivial, if it spreads, it will inevitably cause trouble!" ”

Hearing this, Lu Jingyuan's heart sank, and he said: "Yes, we are eavesdropping, but we only hear that old ...... The old general said who he wanted to join, and as for the conversation between you and Uncle Liu, we didn't hear a word. ”

Hearing him say this, Lu Boyan's face softened slightly, and he sighed: "As soon as you come back, you will make trouble for me." ”

Lu Jingyuan said with a smile: "The child will come back because he misses you, not to make trouble for you." ”

Lu Boyan shook his head and said, "I told you to go to your father's house and study with him, why did you come back so soon?" ”

Lu Jingyuan sneered: "What to learn? He is busier than Zhizhou in a small county, and he has never taught children anything. ”

What he said was true, since Lu Jingyuan arrived in Yixing, Lu Zai has never disciplined him, so that he has nothing to do and is obsessed with Su Yang'er all day long. However, he has never taken the initiative to ask Lu Zai for advice, obviously obsessed with Su Yang'er in his heart, which is a more important matter.

When Lu Boyan heard this, he couldn't help frowning and said, "Didn't he accept the gift I gave him?" ”

Lu Jingyuan said: "I accepted it, he not only accepted it, but also took out his newborn brother to show the child." ”

When Lu Boyan heard this, he thought to himself: "Lu Zai, a poor and sour man, entrusted Jingyuan to him in vain, and he dared to give me a perfunctory thing." ”

He was displeased, and his face did not show it, but he said, "I know, let's go home and talk about it." ”

After that, he turned around and took two steps, only to find that Lu Jingyuan was standing motionless.

I couldn't help but look back and ask, "Why don't you leave?" ”

Lu Jingyuan hesitated for a moment and replied, "Dad, I'll bring back one person." ”

Lu Boyan was stunned and asked, "Who is it?" ”

Lu Jingyuan hesitated for a while, thinking about Su Yang'er's matter related to marriage, as soon as he said it, his father would inevitably get to the bottom of it, so that his absurd behavior outside would be exposed, especially Su Qianyi's matter, which must not be mentioned, otherwise it would be difficult to escape reprimand.

At that moment, he simply took out Su's father's suicide note from his arms and said, "Dad, you will understand after reading this." ”
