He Jiafu Ya, four people came to the living room, two of them are Xu Youliang, the county magistrate of Xufu County, and his housekeeper, and the other two are Lu Renjie, the richest man in Xufu County, and his youngest son Lu Zhongnan.

He Fang, the master of the He family, let the four guests who came to sit down, and then ordered someone to bring good tea and serve him.

"Lord Xu, you have come all the way here, please forgive me if there is any inconsiderate hospitality from the lower officials. As he spoke, he picked up the teacup and arched his hand.

Xu Youliang smiled when he saw this, and responded: "Lord He doesn't have to be so polite, my visit to your town this time is not a public matter, but a private matter." Of course, this private matter is mainly related to this little young master of Brother Lu, and I think it is up to Brother Lu to say it himself. ”

He Fang thought that he didn't have much intersection with the other party, but since he was led by Xu Youliang, he couldn't refuse, so he said, "I don't know what Brother Lu is looking for me?"

Lu Renjie smiled slightly, and responded: "Lord He, my name is Lu Renjie, and this is the dog Lu Zhongnan. Zhongnan, why don't you get up to see Uncle He!"

"Meet Uncle He!" Lu Zhongnan hurriedly got up and saluted.

After the ceremony, Lu Renjie continued: "This time I asked Lord Xu to come and meet Master He, in fact, it was only for one thing, and this matter had to start from a year ago. A year ago, the dog came to Qingniu Town to deliver goods, and accidentally met a girl, who looked like a fairy, and the dog became infatuated with her. Later, I inquired that it was Lord He's daughter, so I asked Lord Xu to match, hoping that my Lu family and He family could tie the knot. In order to show the sincerity of my Lu family, today I have asked people to bring the dowry and invite Lord He to take a look. ”

After speaking, Lu Renjie ordered his entourage to carry the dowry up to the lobby, only to see three large wooden boxes inlaid with gold neatly arranged, and when the next person opened the wooden boxes, the gold, silver and jewelry occupied two large wooden boxes, and the remaining box was full of pearls and jadeite.

These three boxes of dowry gifts are enough for the daily expenses of the third generation of the He family, but He Fang was unmoved when he saw the dowry. Because he knew that his daughter He Xiang was not only at this price, others might not know, but he knew that the price of the Martial Saint was not only ten thousand gold, but also millions of gold and ten million gold at his fingertips.

Lu Renjie saw that He Fang was unmoved, and smiled secretly in his heart, only greedy people have a chance, and the other party pretended to be reserved, which shows that the other party wants more. So he continued: "Lord He, these are just the deposits I gave to the He family, and on the day when the dog and Miss He get married, there will be three large boxes of jewelry." ”

He Fang shook his hand and said: "Brother Lu is too polite, I don't dislike the amount of gift money, but the marriage matter, I will not interfere in the little girl's decision." If the little girl is destined for the noble son, I will never interfere more, if the little girl does not look down on the noble son, with all due respect, it is useless for Brother Lu to bring more gold, silver and jewelry. ”

"This!" Lu Renjie didn't know how to say for a while.

At this time, Xu Youliang on the side interjected: "Lord He, since ancient times, children's marriages have been the words of their parents, and I don't think this matter can be decided by the children themselves." ”

He Fang saw that his boss came out to speak, nodded and responded: "What Lord Xu said is reasonable, but the little girl He Xiang has already been engaged to the beggar gang leader Xi Duoduo, if I accept the gift money from the Lu family, how can you let me meet the world? Do you want me to be an unkind and unrighteous person?"

Xu Youliang smiled and said, "How can the young gang leader of the beggar gang be compared with the Lu family, the richest man in Xufu County, is Lord He planning to marry Miss He to a beggar? In this case, people in the world still don't laugh at Lord He for being extremely pedantic? How can there be a reason in this world to let his children suffer with a beggar?"

After listening to the other party's words, He Fang was unmoved, and retorted: "The outer disciples of the Beggar Gang do make a living by begging, but the millions of disciples of the Beggar Gang, the young gang leader is the dragon and phoenix among the people, if he becomes the leader of the gang in the future, I believe he will not treat the little girl badly." ”

Xu Youliang saw that the other party's oil and salt did not enter, and said angrily: "Why, you are really pedantic! ”

He Fang saw that the other party was angry, and apologized: "My lord, please stop being angry! The little girl's marriage, the lower official said before, if the little girl looks down on the little son of the Lu family, then I have nothing to say, if I don't look down on me, I will naturally not force the little girl to do something against her will." ”

"Hmph!" Xu Youliang said lazily, turning his head and not saying anything more.

Lu Renjie on the side saw that He Fang was determined to leave He Xiang's marriage to her own decision, so he followed his meaning and said: "Since Lord He said so, then let Miss He make her own decisions." Where is Miss Ho now, and can you let her meet me?"

He Fang naturally had no opinion, so he ordered the housekeeper to go out to find He Xiang.

Half an hour passed, and the housekeeper and He Xiang rushed back to the mansion together. When He Xiang entered the reception hall, Lu Zhongnan immediately recognized it as the goddess in his heart, so he walked forward and greeted: "Lu Zhongnan, the county seat, meets Miss He!"

"Who are you? Did we know each other before?" He Xiang was still angry at this time, and he didn't look at Lu Zhongnan properly, and when he saw the other party coming over, he was very displeased.

Lu Zhongnan thought that he was handsome and chic, but Miss He would be overjoyed when she saw it, and then surrendered to herself. But the reality is that the other party ignores him, and his self-confidence is hit.

The ideal is beautiful, the reality is skinny, although Miss He in front of her has not seen the world, but she has a beloved, and this person has a life-saving grace for her, it is worth giving up everything for this.

Seeing the other party's indifferent attitude, Lu Zhongnan reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said, "I had a relationship with Miss, but Miss He didn't see me before, but I never forgot Miss He. I came here with my father today to propose marriage to the young lady, and I hope you will consider it carefully. ”

"Yes, Miss Ho. My son is infatuated with you, and I have seen it in my eyes for the past year, and I know that he is moved by his true feelings. Besides, my Lu family is the richest man in Xufu County, if Miss He marries my son, I, Lu Renjie, promise that I will not let you be wronged in any way, and in the future, you will live a life that is far inferior to ordinary people. Lu Renjie interjected.

He believes that no woman in this world can really resist the temptation of money, especially in a small place like Qingniu Town. Although He Fang is a parent official, he will never be able to give He Xiang the luxurious life he wants. His Lu family is different, the Lu family's business is all over Dunhuang Prefecture, even in the whole state, it is the number one rich family.

He Xiang was silent, she didn't know how her father decided, and if she decided rashly, she would definitely embarrass her father.

Xu Youliang saw that He Xiang was silent, and also interjected: "Miss He Xiang, you are still young, I don't understand that there is a saying called 'Don't come again when the opportunity is not lost', the Lu family is a big family, don't be stupid, if you can form a relationship with Lu Gongzi, it will be of great help to your father's official career to a higher level in the future." ”

Xu Youliang was hinting at the other party, telling He Xiang to marry Lu Zhongnan, and he would secretly promote his father He Fang in the future.

He Fang was so shrewd, smiled slightly, and said: "Daughter, you can rest assured, Dad's official career does not need to be exchanged for the happiness of your life." As long as you are happy, Dad will not have any complaints even if he takes off this official uniform. ”

After listening to his father's words, He Xiang already had a plan at this time, so he answered: "This adult, Uncle Lu, and Master Lu, I have understood the kindness of the three of you, but I am still young now, and I don't want to think about marriage for the time being. ”

He Xiang did not refuse the Lu family, nor did he want his father to have a bad relationship with the county lord, so no one would be offended. Seeing this, Lu Zhongnan was not easy to force marriage, so he arched his hand and said: "In this case, my son will propose to Miss in five years, and I hope Miss will not refuse at that time." ”

But before He Xiang could answer, suddenly a shrill voice sounded outside the mansion.

"The Lu family's dog is off, get out of here! Do you dare to rob the woman of this young gang leader, do you want to find death?" The shouter is Xi Duoduo, who rushed to hear the news, he doesn't care what the identity of the person who came, so whether the Lu family has anything to do with the county government or not, he scolded as soon as he came up.

At this time, in the living room, Lu Renjie heard someone scolding, and he was immediately furious.

"Lord He, do you still have a vicious dog in your He family?" Lu Renjie stared at the other party, wanting an explanation.

But without waiting for any answer, He Xiang explained: "Uncle Lu, our family's prosperity is very obedient, and it is my fiancé who is shouting outside, and he made a marriage contract with me in his early years, which my father can testify. ”

I saw He Fang nodded, and responded: "Indeed, as the little girl said, the son's name outside is Xi Duoduo, and he is the leader of the beggar gang, this time he came to make trouble because he thought that Lu Gongzi robbed the little girl, and now he is angry outside." In my opinion, they are all young men, who doesn't have a little temper, not to mention that it was Lu Gongzi who provoked first, no wonder this son. ”

"Very good! In that case, let me see who this young leader of the beggar gang is, and he dares to bully my Lu family. Lu Renjie saw that he didn't help him speak, and the other party was obviously biased towards that kid.

After speaking, Lu Renjie took Lu Zhongnan out of the mansion, and Xu Youyou and others also followed. When the group came to the door of the mansion, they saw that Xi Duoduo was still scolding.

"You are the young leader of the beggar gang?" Lu Renjie said angrily.

Duoduo saw that the other party's eyes were not good, but he was not afraid, and grinned: "Hehe, I am the young leader of the beggar gang! Are you the Lu family dog who robbed my daughter-in-law?"

When Lu Renjie saw that the other party still called him dog offal in front of him, he was immediately furious and said, "Where did you come from, didn't your parents teach you to respect the old and love the young?"

Duoduo didn't care, walked forward, and asked: "Old dog, don't think that you dare to pretend to be garlic in front of the master with a few more hairs on your chin, to tell you the truth, your parents died early, I don't know what bullshit respects the old and loves the young, if you stare at me in front of the master again, I will beat you out of shit." ”

"Hugh is going to be rude to my father, Xiao Ye Chong, you have the ability to play a few tricks with me, if you lose, quickly give me Miss He Xiang, otherwise I will beat you out of and pee." Seeing that his father was humiliated, Lu Zhongnan scolded loudly.

"Yo he, it turned out that you were the woman who wanted to rob me of this puppy, very good! Today I will let you understand what it means to be low-key, not everyone you can afford to provoke, this little master is the kind of person you can't afford to mess with, even if you have money, it's useless, the little master still beats your mother and doesn't know it." Duoduo's words were full of provocation, before he mistook it for the old dog in front of him to rob his woman, and he didn't expect a puppy to pop up, now he must teach the other party a lesson, otherwise he will be a person in the future.

Does it make people say that their daughter-in-law has been robbed, but they don't dare to squeak, and he is still the young leader of the beggar gang? Obviously, Xi Duoduo is not this kind of person. Duoduo's life philosophy is: Lao Tzu is Lao Tzu, and if you don't accept it, you will lie down.

Lu Zhongnan saw that the other party was looking for a fight, which was exactly what he wanted, so he opened a posture and prepared to fight with him.

Duoduo stood in place, stretched out his middle finger with his right hand and hooked it, signaling the other party to make the first move. Lu Zhongnan smiled, clenched his fists and hit Duoduo's face.

In Lu Zhongnan's opinion, the other party is just a clown jumping off the beam, how can he be his opponent, now he has already practiced the "Western Xuanwu Sutra" to the third level, Xiao Zhou Tian has already opened up, and the other party asked him to fight first is to find abuse.

Seeing that Duoduo's face was about to be beaten, I saw Duoduo tilt his head and then stretch out his right foot. Lu Zhongnan's punch missed Duoduo's face, and his body rushed to Duoduo's right side, but his feet were tripped by Duoduo's outstretched legs, and his body was immediately unstable, and then the whole person immediately fell to the ground.

"Hehe, Lu Gongzi, be careful! My brother Duoduo is very powerful, don't keep your hands. On the side, He Xiang reminded with a smile.

This Lu Gongzi suffered a loss, He Xiang was naturally happy in his heart, and reminded the other party that it was just hypocrisy. But Lu Gongzi's mind was more axial, and he thought that He Xiang cared about him before he said this, so he thanked him: "Thank you Miss He for reminding me, and then it will be up to me to teach this little beggar a lesson." ”

After Lu Zhongnan finished speaking, he patted the dust on his body, and said unashamedly: "Little beggar, don't be complacent, it was my son's carelessness just now that let you take advantage of the loophole, this time you lie down honestly for me, I promise not to kill you." ”

Duoduo shook his head and said with a smile: "Ouch, my son Lu, thank you for your large amount, and I hope you will be merciful." ”

"Look at the fight! Xuanwu strikes!" Lu Gongzi shouted, and then waved his fist, concentrating the three layers of power into his right fist.

I saw a Xuanwu beast with condensed true qi smashing towards Duoduo, Duoduo pretended to be scared, and hurriedly ran away, the Xuanwu beast's attack distance was limited, and it turned invisible after hitting ten meters.

"Little beggar, don't run if you have the ability!" Lu Gongzi was a little annoyed and said loudly.

Obviously, the use of True Qi in his body was still immature, otherwise the Xuanwu Beast would not have dissipated after hitting ten meters.

"Dog offal, you have the ability to beat the master, and if you can beat it, you will win. Duoduo continued to provoke, not affected by the other party's words in the slightest.

Next, Lu Gongzi kept chasing Duoduo, Duoduo was like a slippery loach, Lu Gongzi couldn't beat no matter how he fought, and soon Lu Gongzi's true qi in his body was exhausted.

Without the support of the true qi in his body, Lu Gongzi was out of breath, and then stopped chasing. Duoduo turned back when he saw this, and then came to the other party, then lifted the other party's shirt with his left hand, and slapped the other party's face with his right hand.

Syllable!

Only a crisp sound was heard, and the five palm prints were clearly printed on Lu Gongzi's face.

"Dog offal, who told you to rob the woman of the master?" Duoduo threw the other party to the ground.

"Ouch, why are you so vicious?" Lu Gongzi shouted. At this time, he was very aggrieved, his true yuan was exhausted, and he had no strength to stand up.

Duoduo stepped forward, followed by another slap, this one on the other side of the face. After a while, Lu Gongzi's face was swollen like two big steamed buns.

"Stop!" Lu Renjie scolded loudly when he saw his son being beaten.

"Dog offal, look at you robbing my woman!" Duoduo ignored it, and then slapped the other party twice.

I saw that Mr. Lu didn't hold back for a while, and he cried. You must know that he has beaten others since he was a child, and it is the first time he has been beaten up like today. Lu Gongzi wanted to hold back the pain on his face, but the slap was harder than the other, and Lu Gongzi couldn't help crying for a while.

"I told you to stop, Xiao Ye Chong, are you trying to kill someone?" Lu Renjie was extremely angry, and he wanted to teach a lot of lessons.

At this moment, He Fang opened his mouth and said, "Young helper, please be merciful to your subordinates, the son of the Lu family did not marry He Xiang, please don't hurt the harmony." ”

Seeing that the old man opened his mouth, he had to give face, so he grinned and said: "Hmph! Little dog offal, I will spare your dog life today, if it weren't for my father-in-law to intercede for you, I would have to beat you out of shit." ”

He Xiang didn't want to continue to mess around here, so he hurriedly came over and took the other party's hand and left. The father and son of the Lu family suffered a big loss this time, and when they saw that they had no face to stay, they turned around and left angrily.
