Wang Hongtai sat in the Yan family's Xinrong Hall serving tea, and when he looked up, he saw a long couplet hanging in the middle hall, and couldn't help but get up curiously.

Wang Hongtai couldn't remember who it was for a while, and he secretly said in his heart: "I can't imagine that a businessman like the Yan family has such a good thing." It's not easy. ”

At this time, a young servant preached: "The master is here." As he spoke, Yan Yongnian was helped into the hall by Yan Gang.

"Oh, outside of Yan Yuan, I haven't seen you for a few months, but your old body is getting stronger and stronger." When Wang Hongtai saw Yan Yongnian coming in, he hurriedly smiled and said.

Mr. Wang was polite. Sit quickly, the person is old, and his arms and legs are stiff, making Mr. Wang wait for a long time. Yan Yongnian smiled faintly.

The old gentleman laughed. I'm the one who bothered me. Wang Hongtai smiled pleasantly after sitting down.

"Mr. Wang is here at this time, but what is the important matter?" Yan Yongnian asked.

"Well, it's true that there are some small things that trouble Yan Yuan, but it's just ......." Wang Hongtai looked around and smiled awkwardly.

"Stand down." Yan Yongnian waved his hand and said. At this time, the people waiting in the hall left one after another.

"Don't hide it from Yan Yuan, I heard people in the city say that your Yan family's Taijiquan is very powerful, and several junior brothers in the family are also martial arts jīng, so I want to borrow a few people from the Yan family to use it." Wang Hongtai clenched his fists and smiled.

"Hey, it's just other people's nonsense. Mr. Wang is not serious. Saying this, both of them smiled slightly.

"I'm curious, Mr. Wang, a scholar, how did he find a martial artist? Could it be that something happened at home? Yan Gang on the side asked.

"Isn't it here, it's one of my students, have you heard of the second mansion of the Zhang family in the east gate of Yongkang?" Wang Hongtai said with a smile.

"Zhangjia Second Mansion outside the East Gate? Are you talking about Zhang Ran's mansion? The old man groaned and looked up and asked.

"Yes, I asked you for help this time, for his son Zhang Mu. I'm sure you've heard that a few times ago, my aunt in his house suffered a catastrophe, and I'm just a little worried. Why did the old gentleman see Zhang Ran? Wang Hongtai asked.

"Zhang Ran is kind and charitable, and he has the style of Meng taste. The old man had a relationship with him. I know it, too. In this way, since Mr. Wang came in person, the old man admired Zhang Ran's personality, this favor, the old man helped. It's just that at the moment, everyone in my Zhuangzi is running outside to buy and sell, can you wait a little longer, sir? Yan Yongnian said.

"It's ......." This was when Wang Hongtai was in trouble. Suddenly, only a shout was heard outside.

"Don't run!"

Wang Hongtai saw a thin child wearing a blue sè deep coat walking like a fly, and instantly flashed into the flower hall.

He was followed by a child about his age, but the child had large shoulders and a round waist, and looked several years older than the emaciated child.

The emaciated child was holding a purse in his hand, holding it high, and shouting, "Come after me, you have the ability to chase me." ”

"Watch me clean you up!" Immediately, the tall boy reached out and grabbed his right hand, and the thin man took a step back, then stabilized his body, lost a bow, pushed his left shoulder outward, pressed his body, and suddenly shot out with all his strength, and suddenly the tall child sat on the ground with a pop.

"What kind of system, show him to me." Yan Gang drank it immediately.

When a big man rushed in from outside the door, he immediately rushed towards this emaciated child, but just grabbed his shoulder, this child put his hands together, blocked his arm with a move, followed him to take a step, his body bowed back, his hands were raised, and a move to move and block suddenly hit the big man.

The big man staggered back seven or eight steps, and as soon as he came back to his senses, the child had already run to Yan Yongnian's side and said, "Grandpa, see if my kung fu has grown again?" "

At this moment, Wang Hongtai's eyes suddenly lit up, the child in front of him was two or three years older than Zhang Mu, with a slender figure, fair skin, a sharp chin, jīng facial features, long eyelashes, and a pair of red phoenix eyes shining. At first glance, I thought it was a female doll.

"I think this kid is in order. Protecting Muzhi's side, it is not easy to notice. Wang Hongtai thought secretly in his heart.

"Don't you see any guests here?" Yan Gang frowned, and immediately drank it.

And the slender child immediately made a grimace at Wang Gang, but he was not afraid of him at all, but the tall child who fell down hung his head and said, "Grandson knows that he is wrong." "

"Bullying your brother again?" Yan Yongnian liked this child very much, and asked lovingly stroking his head.

"What bullied him? Grandpa, look at this purse, I saw it on my cousin the other day, and it's on him in the next few days. Haha, you say it's not weird. He said as he winked at the tall man, grimacing.

"Yes, it was given to me by my cousin." The tall child's face suddenly turned red and he stammered.

"Alright, let's go down first." Yan Yongnian smiled faintly.

Immediately, they left the hall.

"Outside of Yan Yuan, the late student knows that it is a little abrupt. I just want to ask, can that little brother just now, can he help with this? When the rest of the family comes back, they will change him back. Didn't I just look at this kid's schoolwork? Wang Hongtai hesitated and said.

"I'm afraid this won't work, although Su'er can do kung fu, but she's still young, don't mention your studies. Besides, I don't have enough experience, and my old man is reluctant. Yan Gang laughed.

Who would have expected Yan Yongnian to smile and say, "What's this?" Since Mr. Wang has taken a fancy to him, it is a blessing for this child. Let him go. It's just that in the afternoon, please take a look at my homework for the remaining children, and see if any of them have any of them."

"Then thank you for the king's retirement, and you should do your best in your later life." Immediately, Wang Hongtai said with a smile.

——————————————

In the afternoon, the breeze was blowing, and all the children of the Yan family went to the study, and Wang Hongtai was checking their homework one by one.

And Yan Yongnian was on crutches, outside the window, listening to the sound of his children and grandchildren reading aloud, his cloudy eyes were deep and distant, as if he had thought of something a long time ago, and he was stunned.

"Father, this surnamed Wang is really out of proportion, and the scholar is poor and troublesome. Didn't you say that the thief had already been caught? If you don't catch it, why don't you go to the government? "Yan Gang is firmly sāo.

"I'm afraid it's inconvenient to have some hidden secrets, besides, the Zhang family is a local family in the end, and it is understandable to be kind to them." Speaking of this, Yan Yongnian asked in a low voice: "Gang'er, do you remember how I told you in the early years how I came to this Yifeng Township?" ”

"Back then, my father fled all the way from Yingtianfu South to Yongkang, and when he was dying, he was taken in and treated by well-wishers, and he survived." Speaking of this, Ji Gang was suddenly stunned, and suddenly realized: "Is the kind person my father said Zhang Ran?" ”

"When the old man met him, he was still a scholar. Knowing the old man's life experience, he resolutely kept the old man in his house for two years. After the injury was healed, he gave the old man a few acres of land. That's why you have your big family business now. Now there is no heart to compete for the hegemony of the yellow map, but walking the rivers and lakes, the righteous word is the head. Since this Zhang Mu is his flesh and blood, I didn't sit idly by and ignore the reason. Su'er has the best bones and bones to the best of my ability, and Bing Xue is smart, everything is thorough, and he is thoughtful, and he protects Zhang Mu closely, I think it is more than enough. Yan Yongnian said.

"But, Ke Su'er is a ...... of a girl's family."

"What happened to my daughter's house? If that Monk Zhu didn't have a big foot, could he have today? I see that there is no one in this house who is stronger than Su'er. If she can get in touch with Zhang Mu, it will also solve my three concerns. first, to repay Zhang Ran for saving his life; Second, it can be regarded as finding a stable home for Su'er; Third, it is not a long-term solution for us to do this partial business after all, and we must leave a way for future generations to live. This time with the Zhang family, maybe it's a good start. Yan Yongnian said in a low voice.

"That being said, I'm still worried." Yan Gang said.

"Worried about what?"

"The matter of Zhangfu, others may not understand. But I know it all by that. Zhang Ran's younger brother Zhang Chi is the head of the White Lotus Sect. I think Wang Hongtai wants to guard against him. This Zhang Chi is afraid that he wants the property in Zhang Mu's name. A few years ago, I had a grudge with him because of a sea cargo, and then I checked his details. The White Lotus Sect is not easy to deal with. Yan Gang said.

When the old man heard this, his cloudy eyes shè shè a cold light of slaughter, and he looked up to the sky and said: "The mountains don't turn and the water turns." It turned out to be an old acquaintance! A few magic sticks can't make any big waves. Waiting for the people who transported the sea goods in the village to come back, they sent a few more people to protect Zhang Mu in secret. If the White Lotus Sect is really shameless, then clean them up. Lao Tzu is not dead yet, and it will not be their turn to rebel, this one-third of an acre of land in Yongkang, I Zhang Jiusi has the final say. ”

When Yan Gang heard this, he immediately bowed his waist and said, "I know what to do." ”

"Go ahead." Yan Yongnian waved his hand, and Yan Gang retreated.

He staggered into the corridor, lifted his legs with difficulty, put them on the corridor and sat down, leaned against the railing, looked up at the blue sky, and said secretly in his heart: "Monk Zhu, Monk Zhu, Lao Tzu was not defeated by you back then, but defeated by Chang Yu Chūn and Xu Da." When I fight, I don't obey you. However, over the years, you have governed this Ming Dynasty to the peace of the country. Think about it, you shouldn't be as good as the old man? Haha, the emperor Lao Tzu has been the emperor, is this the emperor, well, Lao Tzu is not as good as you. I won't mess you up ....... ”

Listening to the sound of reading in his ears, he closed his cloudy eyes leisurely, and the ...... of the years of iron horse Jingo and blood-stained yellow sand gradually emerged in his mind.
