Chapter 40 Childhood Sweethearts, Fighting Wits and Courage 1

Zhu Xishi said: "In this case, please rest assured, all our shopkeepers, during the period of grandpa's absence, will definitely be loyal and dutiful and wait for the master to come back." ”

"Haha, okay, I'll bring you happy eggs when I come back."

Zhuxi Shi is first-class in terms of seniority and ability among all the shopkeepers, and everyone is very convinced of him. No one disagreed with Master Bamboo's decision.

They all congratulated Master Zhu and wanted to hug his grandson. Some people also said that they laughed so much that they could find a second young grandmother or a good son-in-law in the capital.

Yahuan suddenly came and reported: "Master Li Zhuang is here." ”

Master Zhu was obviously not very happy: "Is he one person or two people?" ”

The maid said, "There is only Master Li Zhuang alone, do you want to invite in?" ”

The shopkeepers saw that Master Zhu had guests and said goodbye.

Master Zhu said to Zhuxishi: "You go to the study first and wait for me, and I'll come over later." Zhu Xishi looked at Master Zhu and nodded.

"Why did Brother Zhu call everyone to a meeting today?"

Master Zhu said: "Yes, I am going to live in the capital for a while, my eldest daughter-in-law is pregnant, and my son wrote to say that he wants us to live for a while." ”

Li Zhuang didn't believe that it was such a coincidence, he only came to the door yesterday and the Zhu family was going to Beijing today.

"Where is the need to be in such a hurry, it's still early to conceive a baby in October."

Master Zhu laughed: "My wife misses her son and daughter-in-law, and she can't wait for October so much." There is also a property in the Zhujia family in the capital, so it will not be troublesome to live. And you also know that my second son is about to be thirty years old in a few years, and he hasn't even made a marriage. ”

"We thought that it might be a girl from Yang County, he didn't like it, so he simply looked for one in the capital. Then it's time for double happiness!"

Li Zhuang said: "What is the double happiness coming, and the three happiness is powerful." My son thinks about your daughter for a long time, and he hopes that we can get married. ”

"Dude, my daughter hasn't been able to do it yet? Just let me stay for two more years, I promised, and my wife won't agree. ”

This kind of talk is already tired of Li Zhuang owner, what is not as good as it? It's just an excuse that I don't want to say yes.

"Brother Zhu is only the two of us now, please tell me the truth again. Is that book in your possession or not? ”

Sure enough, I came for the book.

"That book has been ruined, and it's definitely not in my hands."

Master Li slapped the table, and the teacup fell to the ground.

"That book was written by the mighty general himself forty years ago, and it is impossible for it to be destroyed. Mai found the book from the beggar, and you gave it to the beggar. ”

I didn't expect him to know so clearly.

Master Zhu really wanted to ask him, why do you know that it is a book of mighty generals, why do you still ask for this book for foreigners, and what benefits did they give you?

"Books? What book? I didn't give the beggar a book, that book was really destroyed. ”

Master Li Zhuang held the knife in his hand and said, "Brother Zhu, let me tell you the truth, as long as I help the foreigners find that book, they will title me as the king of the alien surname." So I have to get this book, you don't want to toast, don't eat, eat and drink. ”

Master Zhu said, "You know, I've never liked to drink. ”

"Okay, good, don't blame anyone else if there is any trouble in your family then." Master Li sneered.

After Master Li left, Lan Yunjin walked out from behind.

"What's wrong with the flute? Aren't you supposed to help your mother with things? ”

Lan Yunjin said, "Dad, are you sad?"

Master Zhu sighed: "It's false to say that you are not sad, a king of the opposite sex sold his family and country." How could he not want to think about how others could tolerate him? ”

Because the stake is so great that it has blinded him. In fact, maybe he was such a person, but he used to pretend to be too good. ”

"Eh, do you think they will do anything to the shop and the rest of the Bamboo family?"

Lan Yunjin said: "They don't want the book to be known to everyone, and their purpose is just to find the book, us." They shouldn't be out of trouble when we're gone. ”

The next day, some rumors suddenly circulated, saying that Master Li and Master Zhu had a falling out, because Master Zhu didn't want to marry his daughter so early. The owner of Li Zhuang forcibly came to the door to propose, but was rejected, and he was angry and quarreled with Master Zhu.

There is also a big monk in Lijiazhuang who suddenly came, and the monk was very rich, and he wanted to find the treasure with the owner of Li Zhuang.

Needless to say, these rumors were all released by Lan Yunjin, and they also used rumors as weapons in their previous lives, and she can do it this time.

"Dad, who is that monk? Why do people outside now say that you and Uncle Zhu broke up? ”

Li Zhuang slapped the table: "I didn't expect that the person surnamed Zhu is also such a sanctimonious person, and from now on I will be inseparable from him!"

Li Pei said: "Dad, what are you talking about?" You have been friends with Uncle Zhu for more than 40 years, how can you break it off? And you know, I like Xiaodi, and I won't marry her in this life. ”

Master Li Zhuang slapped Li Pei's face: "Don't be wishful thinking here anymore, others don't look down on you at all!" I tell you, don't have any more dealings with the Bamboo family from now on, and if I know I'll break your legs!"

Li Ji looked at his father in shock, could it be that the friendship of more than forty years was broken like this!

"Blocking people's money, such as killing parents. I'm telling you that if I can get that book, our family will enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future. ”

Master Li's eyes were full of murderous aura: "I will never let others get in my way." ”

Li Ji looked at his father in disbelief, how could his father, who had always been heroic and affectionate, suddenly turn against his good brother?

Just because of that book? Because of that monk? No, if the book is really in the Zhu family, and the Zhu family refuses to hand over the book, then the monk named Mai will definitely not let go of the Zhu family.

No, he can't watch this happen, if it does, then he and Xiaodi really have no chance.

Li Ji ignored his father's threat and turned around and ran out.

Li Ji rushed to the door of Zhu's house and hurriedly knocked on the door.

"Open the door quickly, open the door quickly, I want to see Master Zhu and see Xiaodi."

Zhu Danfeng opened the door and brought a group of servants behind him.

"Why are you knocking so quickly? There are no dead people in our family. ”

Li Ji grabbed Zhu Danfeng and said anxiously: "Second Brother Zhu, I want to see Uncle Zhu, and Xiaodi." Please let me in, I have something very important to say to Uncle Bamboo. ”

What else to say? Say that your father collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, and said that our Zhu family went to Beijing to hide from your Li family? Say that it is absolutely impossible for us to hand over the war book?

"There's nothing more to say, some things are already predestined."

Li Ji couldn't understand Zhu Danfeng's words, and begged Zhu Danfeng to let him in, Zhu Danfeng always regarded Li Ji as his younger brother, and couldn't bear to let Li Ji in for a while.

Lan Yunjin knew that Li Ji was here and felt that he would go out to see him, Li Ji had been very good to him for so many years, if he didn't know the original plot, this person was actually a good person.

Li Ji not only met Master Zhu but also everyone in the Zhu family, and Mrs. Zhu hid behind the curtain and secretly wiped her tears.

"Is there anything you're here for?"

Li Ji suddenly knelt down: "Ask my uncle to promise to marry Xiaodi to me!" ”

Master Zhu helped Li Ji up: "Good boy, I know your intentions, but now I can't marry my daughter to you." ”

Li Ji looked at Lan Yunjin anxiously and took Lan Yunjin's hand and said, "Sister Xiaodi, help me persuade your father, I really like you, I have always liked you for so many years." If you marry me, I will definitely treat you well, you believe me. ”

Lan Yunjin broke free of Li Ji's hand, and looked at the man in front of him who had always been in love, and suddenly felt that love was a little funny.

Now I look affectionate to you, but when I see another woman, I like another person at a glance.

"Li Ji, did you have a monk here for two days?"

Li Ji thought to himself that it was really because of this monk: "It's a monk who came, and the monk said that there is a book in your Zhu family, and it seems that as long as my father helps him get this book, it can be of great benefit." ”

Lan Yunjin said calmly: "You go back and ask your father, what kind of book is it, and that book has been destroyed." Brother sent Li Gongzi out, you still don't come to me in the future. ”

Li Jizhu Danfeng went out and threw it out of the gate. No matter how Li Ji knocked on the door, the door would not open, and the people of Li Jiazhuang soon took Li Ji away.

The day the bamboo family went to Beijing, the sky was cloudless and the sky was refreshing, and those who had a little friendship with the bamboo family came to send it, after all, the bamboo master was a good person.

He never made enemies with others, and even the owner of Li Zhuang came.

"Master Zhu has a long way to go to Beijing, you have to be careful."

Master Zhu said: "Thank you Master Li for reminding me, I will definitely be more careful." "The two of them are smiling and clash in secret.

Watching Master Zhu's family get into the carriage, Master Li's smile gradually faded, and his face became gloomy.

Master Zhu hugged Mrs. Zhu: "Madam, are you afraid?" ”

Mrs. Zhu said, "There is nothing to be afraid of, as long as you and the children go to do something." ”

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and they understood what they meant.

In Yang County, Li Zhuang didn't dare to make a move, but outside Yang County, Li Zhuang could show his strength.

Not long after the carriage left Yang County, someone stopped it, it was a Mai monk.

"Master Bamboo, Mrs. Bamboo, please get out of the car."

The groom had already been instructed to stop the carriage and run away, and the groom was still very strange how someone could really stop the car.

The groom immediately ran away, and ran into the woods without a figure.

The Mai monk stepped forward and opened the curtain, and a fan hit him directly on the hand.

"The great monk is so tight, so he will move his hands and feet as soon as he comes up."

A man got out of the carriage and wore a big red dress with a fan.

Zhu Danfeng pulled his red clothes: "How good it looks, I don't wear red much, but I wore it today because it was festive." ”

He was the only one in the carriage, and a horse followed behind it. The horse walked to Zhu Danfeng's side and rubbed his head against Zhu Danfeng's face.

Mai said: "Childe Yushu looks good in anything in the wind, dare to ask Childe if the book is in your hand?" ”
