Chapter 53: Candidates

Unlike Yang Min and Yang Jun of Yancheng, who were welcomed back by Yang Rui and Yang Xian, who were stationed in the barracks, Yang Jian directly escorted Yang Duan's team of more than 20 people into the city lord's mansion in Xizhou City.

When they arrived, Yang Wu and Tian were already standing outside the City Lord's Mansion and waiting. However, there was not much greeting, and from the first time the two saw Yang Duan, Gu was shocked and hurriedly welcomed Yang Duan into the mansion, and strictly refused to see guests.

It stands to reason that when the clansmen came, Yang Wu should have said a few words and made some comforting gestures, but now when he saw at first glance that his old man was injured, he couldn't care about anything else.

If Yang Wu could see that Yang Duan's injury relied on his innate sensitivity, then how could Tian Wei see it?

To be precise, he didn't rely on "looking", but smelling - the medicine that Hua hated Liu applied to Yang Duan was unique to Si Chou Zhai, and he was not afraid of his own medicine, how could he be unfamiliar with it!

"Elder En, let me see!" Yang Wu welcomed Yang Duan back to the mansion and waved everyone away, leaving only Tian Bufu, Yang Jian, and Hua Haliu behind, and hurriedly stepped forward to see his injuries.

"It's okay!" Yang Duan waved his hand, but instead glared at Yang Wudao: "What's the matter?" You were actually injured at this time? ”

"This ...... It's not that ...... injured" Hua Hate Liu saw Yang Wu timid for the first time on the side, only to see Yang Wu's face flush and say: "It's just that you can't use force for the time being." ”

"Rubbish!" The old man scolded angrily, and directly slashed his head and face at Yang Wudao: "The head of the dignified family, the proud protΓ©gΓ© of the peerless Sword Saint Emperor Fu Old Mr., hum, shame!" ”

If in normal times, someone dares to scold Yang Wu to his face like this, Hua Hate Liu believes that from the word "waste", that person is already destined to become a dead corpse - now it is different, the old man spits and flies, and after sitting and scolding for a while, he stands up directly, and almost grabs Yang Wu's ears and scolds into his head. In this process, Yang Jian couldn't bear to see his father being scolded several times, but the mouth that had just opened was stopped by Yang Wu with his eyes one by one.

"What about Yang Jun?" Relieving his breath, the old man opened his mouth and asked.

"There just happened to be some things to deal with, and I went out after the New Year." Yang Wu didn't say anything specific about going to be scolded, and Yang Duan didn't ask in detail.

"You'd better let me see the wound......" Yang Wu asked again.

"Look at what! No one can die! Yang Duan impatiently waved Yang Wu down again, and turned his eyes to the side to stare at the lively and lively scene, and he couldn't see the injured two people at all.

"This is Mr. Chou?" Yang Duan changed his clothes, asked Xiang Tian with a warm and kind expression, and when he saw that Tian was not afraid, he nodded a few times in flattery, and said to himself: "Is it reliable to be so small?" ”

After speaking, regardless of the eyes of the sky and not afraid of grievances, he turned to Yang Wu again, pointed at Hua Hate Liu and said: "I think he is more reliable than this kid, clever, has eyes, and knows how to help my old man dress his wounds - much better than you." ”

After hearing his words, Yang Wu nodded with a smile on his face, looked at Hua Hate Liu, and saw that Hua Hate Liu nodded slightly although he was embarrassed, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: I think that the injury has been controlled, otherwise it would be impossible to have such a big temper to admonish. Therefore, I no longer insist on looking at the wound.

Yang Jian glanced at Hua Hate Liu dissatisfiedly: Grandpa is old and confused, and he even said that this person is stronger than his father, hey!

"How are the two old bastards Yang Min and Yang Jun?"

"The second and fifth uncles have all gone to live in the camp outside the city before you, and I haven't gone there yet." Yang Wu responded truthfully.

"Humph! Two old immortals! Hearing Yang Wu say this, Yang Duan said with disdain: "I don't know what kind of little Jiujiu is fighting at this time, it's dirty!" ”

Hearing this, Yang Wu couldn't help but smile bitterly: If the two of them are old and immortal, you can be three or five years older than them......

"This clan meeting, I'm afraid it won't be easy for you to be re-elected as the patriarch!" Yang Duan, who was silent for a few breaths, spoke again, but his previous tone changed and became full of sighs and pity for his juniors as an elder.

"This ...... In fact, I didn't think about being re-elected at the beginning, after all, among the previous patriarchs, those who could be re-elected were all highly respected, and Yang Wu was ashamed of himself. Yang Wu smiled slightly, knowing that the old man was about to get down to business, he himself was much more relaxed.

"Didn't think about it at first? Did you hit your head against the wall or were you kicked by a donkey? After hearing this, Yang Duan's tone changed again, and he was no longer polite when he spoke.

Hua Hate Liu was surprised that an old man who was already over eighty years old could still have such a rich expression, and couldn't help but slander in his heart: Is this the so-called "old and immortal is a thief"!

"En Lao is angry, I didn't make it clear......" Yang Wu didn't say that Yang Duan misunderstood, but attributed the blame to himself for "not making it clear", which was to find out the old man's temper - before the old man spoke, you fought for whoever was right was who was right; If the old man says that you are all wrong, then there is no need to say more, you must be all wrong.

"Say!" Although the tone was a little harsh, even if Tian was not afraid of such a child, he could hear that there was not much reproach in it.

"You say I'm qualified, and I know why. It's not that I don't know the severity and say something disrespectful, in the whole clan, except for your older generation Yang Wu is really inferior, who can drive me away from the essay Taowuluo? Who can be stronger than me in the prime of life? Who dares to say that I am better than the governance of the clan? Who is better than me in the faith of leading the clan to the path of revival? It's not as good as that! ”

"If you say that you are not as good as our older generation, you are already humble, since this is the case......" Yang Duan was still quite satisfied with Yang Wu's statement, which at least proved that he did not trust the wrong person at that time. However, he was still puzzled by Yang Wu's re-election to the clan, "If you are worried that with the general trend of the world, the clan will drag Xizhou back, then it is redundant, the entire clan and Xizhou will live and die together, and that group of people will not oppose it......"

"Yang Wu naturally knows this." Yang Wu took over and said, "Although it is not re-elected, this clan still needs to work together in one direction in accordance with the general trend, so this clan must move forward in our expectations." ”

"What do you mean?" Hearing this, the old man's eyes were shining, and he instantly understood what Yang Wu meant.

"Exactly!" Yang Wu knew that the old man understood what he meant, and immediately nodded.

"However......" As soon as the glint in his eyes passed, Yang Duan had doubts in his heart: "You can't say that there is no suitable candidate on your side of the younger generation - but Yang Jun is a big man, it's okay to fight and kill, and even if you manage the entire clan, even if you have our support, it will be difficult to calm down the resentment......" As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at Yang Jian, and shook his head again and again: "Ah Nan's ability is enough, and he can get rid of you when you were young, but this daughter is ......"

When Yang Jian heard this, his heart was also sad, and he thought: I hate this skin, but I can't help my father at a critical time!

"Naturally, it's not the two of them." Yang Wu also knew that Yang Jun and Yang Jian were not suitable people, but they only said that they were not but did not directly say who they were, but instead asked the old man to guess.

"That's right!" Yang Duan seemed to have thought of something, slapped his thigh and said, "I heard that your younger brother Yang Wei also has a whereabouts, he had a talent for management when he was young, and this is no worse than you...... Do you want to? ”

"He has been adrift for many years and is not familiar with his family...... There wasn't that much time for him to get used to it now. Besides, he said that he didn't want to come back for the time being, and I haven't been able to take good care of him, I'm afraid he doesn't feel comfortable in his heart. In the end, Yang Wu's heart was also gloomy.

"That's hard for me...... I heard that Yang Rui and Yang Xian, the two little rabbit cubs, are mixing well in the army, do you want to support the two of them in exchange for the support of Xiangcheng and Yancheng? Die of this heart, this is tantamount to seeking skin with the tiger. Seeing that Yang Wu was still smiling and shaking his head, Yang Duan was annoyed in his heart: Is this a joke about my old man on purpose? At that moment, he snorted angrily, and then turned his face and sulked.

Yang Wu knew that the old man would not be really angry, and seeing that his appetite was almost hanging, he hurriedly saluted Yang Duan respectfully: "Don't worry, Yang Wu has no intention of playing." Seeing that the old man's face was slightly pale, he continued: "This suitable person is on the spot. ”

"Huh?" When Yang Duan heard this, he scolded in his heart: You kid still said that he wouldn't tease me, it's obviously nonsense! If you had just said that someone was there, I would have been able to guess who it was with my eyes closed!

Thinking like this in his heart, he turned his head to look at Hua Hate Liu and looked at it carefully, only to feel that the more he looked at the posterior in front of him, the more pleasing he looked, the more he looked at it, the happier he became, and nodded secretly in his heart: It is really suitable.

Seeing that the old man's eyes were becoming more and more doting when he glanced at Hua Hate Liu, Yang Jian was very puzzled: Isn't his surname Hua? How can we be the patriarch of our Yang clan? Could it be that after changing his surname, he will be able to become a patriarch? I've never heard of that before!

The question in Yang Jian's heart was another set of thoughts in Yang Duan's heart: Although this posterior life is white and weaker, it is just in line with the life of eating soft rice, and if you become a grandson-in-law, it will be more than half a grandson-well, it will work!

Hua Hate Liu didn't know that at this time, when he thought that there was nothing to do with him, he even made a cameo appearance as a "grandson" - or "more than half a grandson".

"That...... En, you've misunderstood. Seeing that Yang Duan's gaze stayed on Hua Hate Liu from beginning to end, Yang Wu knew that it must be the old man who had misunderstood what he meant.

"Uh-huh...... What the? The old man had not yet recovered from his joy, and after answering twice, he realized that what Yang Wu said was not a flattering word such as "a match made in heaven" and "talented".

"Do you mean this kid?" Yang Duan came back to his senses, and pointed to Tian Buxing, who had just recovered from his grievances, with an incredulous expression.

"Although this kid bears the name of Mr. Chou, he is not the old gentleman back then...... You're protecting him like this, he can't be your illegitimate son, right? ”

After the old man said this, everyone present was injured.

Yang Wu: Am I such a person in your eyes?

Yang Jian: No wonder my father didn't agree to ...... me It turns out that I still have such a younger brother......

Hua Hate Liu: No, according to this calculation, Yang Wu will be his grandfather in the future, do I still have to call Aunt Yang Jian?

The sky is not afraid: the second time I fell into a deep grievance......

Seeing that although everyone had different expressions on their faces, they were all looking at him with ridiculous faces, and the old man also knew that he wanted to deviate, so he immediately laughed dryly: "Just kidding, don't take it seriously!" ”

After speaking, he glared again and asked: "This is not good, that is not, who else is suitable?" ”

Yang Wu smiled bitterly, thinking that there were only five people on the scene, and now that there are four of them, who else can there be......

Looking at Yang Wu with a wry smile on his face, the old man was angry, it was clear that you said that there was a scene, now you are not right, Ah Nan is daughter can't be a body, it's easy to see a pleasing to the eye You say no, and in the end, the only hairy child you still say I'm nonsense, I'm ......

Wait! Wait a minute...... The old man sighed in his heart, stretched out his hand and clicked on a few people at the scene, and then silently crossed out the inappropriate ones in the list one by one.

"You...... You ......" In disbelief, when Yang Duan looked at Yang Wu with a wry smile on his face, he suddenly felt that this smile was a sinister smile again.

"There is no other suitable person now, Yang Wu thought about it, and felt that only by inviting you to go out of the mountain can the clan be convinced!"

"You ......" the old man "you, you, you" didn't say anything other valuable for a long time, and finally forced the eighty-year-old man to scold a foreign sentence that he learned earlier: "Niang Xipi!" Don't do it! ”
