Chapter Seventy-Eight: You Blackmail Me

happily carried the wild boar home, Lu Yu moved the wild boar to the backyard and hung it, and asked Mrs. Yan to boil a large pot of boiling water. When he was scalding the pig and shaving and peeling the skin, Fang Daping's youngest son Fang Weili came over in a hurry.

When Fang Weili saw Lu Yu, he said anxiously: "Uncle Da Yu, someone from my family is here, my father asked you to come over." ”

Seeing that Fang Weili looked anxious and his face was full of sweat, Lu Yu hurriedly asked, "Who is from your family?" What do you want me to do? ”

"It's... It's for my father's trouble, I don't know. Uncle Da Yu, go over quickly. ”

Lu Yu put down the kitchen knife and asked Yan Xi'an to stay at home and go over to take a look for himself.

When he arrived at Fang Daping's house, Lu Yu saw several unfamiliar faces, all of whom were sitting on the chairs diagonally, and when they saw Lu Yu, they only raised their heads.

Lu Yu asked Fang Daping: "Village Chief, what are these people here for?" ”

Fang Daping left the chair and stood up, and said to Lu Yu: "Da Yu, these people are the leaders of the regimental training in our town. ”

"Oh." Lu Yu nodded, thinking: "Fang Daping really wants to invite the regimental training village soldiers to defend the village, but is anyone willing to pay this money?" ”

But Fang Daping said again: "These people said that they should ask our village to invite them to guard, but our Yangshan Village is famous for its poverty, so how can we afford to invite them to help." ”

"I see." Lu Yu said: "We don't have any money, so we won't invite you, these people want to serve us for free?" ”

A long-bearded man sitting in the middle said, "It's impossible to be free, but this time we came to the door in person, so the price can be discussed." ”

Lu Yu smiled and said, "It turns out that a few of them are going to buy and sell!" ”

Those few people didn't deny it, they all smiled and said nothing.

Fang Daping said: "Da Yu, what do you think of this matter?" ”

Lu Yu glanced at Fang Daping and thought, "What should I do?" Didn't you call me here just to get me to send these people? He turned to the bearded man and said, "We can't afford to hire a few people in our village, so you should go elsewhere to find business." ”

The long-bearded man glanced at Lu Yu a few times, then shook his head and said, "This can't be done, we're all here, can we still go like this?" ”

Lu Yu sneered and said, "Then what do you want to do?" ”

"Give money, give food, there are seven of us, one person has a thousand catties of grain."

Lu Yu and Fang Daping took a breath at the same time, and Lu Yu said, "You guys are here to rob, right?" ”

The long-bearded man tilted his head and said unhurriedly: "If you don't give it to us, you will live here, don't look at this in your village, I don't believe that anyone dares to touch Lao Tzu." ”

The long-bearded man is very confident, but it's a pity that Lu Yu really dares to touch him.

Lu Yu didn't speak again, walked up to the long-bearded man, reached out and grabbed his front breast, and lifted him up. The man's face changed dramatically, and he exclaimed, "What are you doing here?" Are you kidding? ”

Lu Yucai didn't joke with him, the man was lifted by Lu Yu in his hand, and he couldn't use any strength in his body, several of his companions stood up and wanted to help, but they were all pushed to the ground by Lu Yu with his left hand.

Bringing the long-bearded man to the door, Lu Yu slammed him to the ground, and the long-bearded man who fell had gold stars in his eyes and was sore all over, and then Lu Yu went to pick up the next one.

The few people who came over today were all tall and strong, but as soon as Lu Yu stretched out his hand, he easily grabbed one person, and the other party had almost no ability to resist, as for the accomplices who wanted to come over to help, they were pushed away by Lu Yu again and fell to the ground.

Not long after, there were seven regimental training leaders who came to ask for money and food in front of Fang Daping's house. At this time, the villagers who love to watch dramas have already gathered in a big circle.

Lu Yu mentioned the long-bearded man led by him, and said to him face to face: "This food, you still want it?" ”

The long-bearded man was stunned for a long time, and it took him to wake up after a while. This guy has a hard mouth, and shouted: "You, you wait for me, Lao Tzu will let you walk around without eating." ”

Lu Yu slapped him unceremoniously, his voice was crisp, and the long-bearded man's cheeks immediately became red and swollen. Lu Yu said again: "I'll wait, but you haven't said if you want this food?" ”

Fang Daping had already told the onlookers that these seven people had come to the village to ask for food, and they wanted 7,000 catties. Most of the villagers were indignant when they heard this, saying that these people were just underbeaten. But there are also some people whispering: "If you ask for it and not ask for it, this annoys them, and it is not the village that suffers." ”

When Lu Yu heard the muttering, his heart moved, and he said to the long-bearded man: "That, there are kind-hearted people in our village, who seem to be willing to give you food, how about you come back to him in the future?" ”

The long-bearded man was scared of being beaten, thinking that Lu Yu was joking, and hurriedly said, "No, no, I will never come to your village in the future." ”

The person who whispered just now was called Xu Kaifu, the younger brother of Xu Kaigui who died because of the plague. Lu Yu walked up to Xu Kaifu with the long-bearded man, put the long-bearded man down, and said to him: "I'll let you go back, and next time you enter the village, just look for this old Xu in our village." ”

"Lu Yu, what do you mean?" Xu Kaifu pointed at Lu Yu and shouted, "I recruited you to provoke you?" What did you say? ”

Lu Yu is very fierce, doesn't Xu Kaifu know?

Lu Yu ignored Xu Kaifu and said to the trembling long-bearded man, "Did you hear that?" Next time you come, look for him, this person is very welcome. ”

"Lu Yu, I'll you!" Xu Kaifu pointed at Lu Yu's nose, as if he wanted to pounce.

Lu Yu was also a little angry when he was scolded, he slapped Xu Kaifu's arm hard, and asked the long-bearded man loudly: "Did you hear that?" ”

"Listen...... Heard it. The long-bearded man trembled, completely unaware of what Lu Yu meant.

Lu Yu nodded, and said: "I'm Lu Yu of Yangshan Village, if you dare to fight the idea here again, don't blame me for being unkind." After a pause, he said: "But I can't control this old Xu in our village, he is a good person, if you are short of food, open your mouth to borrow a little from him, I don't think he will refuse you." ”

Xu Kaifu was already angry, and couldn't help but pounce on Lu Yu with his teeth and claws.

Lu Yu was very polite, grabbed Xu Kaifu's collar with one hand, and gently threw it to the ground. But Xu Kaifu sat on the ground and couldn't get up, shouting: "Beat people, Lu Yu beat people......"

Lu Yu didn't look at him again, turned to the surrounding villagers and said, "A few people came to the village chief's house today, saying that our village would pay for them to protect them, and one person would come and ask for a thousand catties of grain, do you agree to this?" ”

"No, this definitely can't be promised."

"Where did these people come from, and the seven people dared to come to our village to spread wild, what kind of place did they treat our Yangshan Village as?"

Lu Yu sneered in his heart and said secretly: "Is Yangshan Village a great place? A bunch of stupid people who only dare to be in the nest. ”

At this time, Fang Daping said: "I have to say a few words, these people are not afraid of him, but do you dare to do anything with him?" If Lu Yu hadn't come to help, who of you would dare to help? He pointed to Xu Kaifu, who was sitting on the ground and shouting, and roared: "Don't howl!" This voice was very loud and imposing, and Xu Kaifu was really yelled at by Fang Daping.

"Xu Kaifu, what did you just say? Are these seven people coming to me for myself? Seven thousand catties of grain, do you think my family has it? Besides, the seven people are just people who go into the village to explore the wind, who knows how many people are behind? If we don't send him away, what do you say? Fang Daping was very angry with Xu Kaifu's words, and he was also very disappointed with the villagers who didn't say a word and only knew how to watch the excitement.

Lu Yu spoke again and said to the seven people: "Get out, next time you come to our village, come to me first, I tell you, no one can go." ”

"No, no......" The men got up from the ground, supported each other, and walked out of the village.

The onlookers had a lot of opinions about Lu Yu, and some said: "Da Yu, what do you mean, why can't you tell anyone?" ”

Lu Yu had long been disappointed in this group of undisciplined bastards, he sneered and said, "Is there anything wrong with what I said?" If they do enter the village, I will not point out who they must go to. ”

"That's not the right thing you say." When Lu Yu was really unreasonable, these people began to coax.

"What's wrong with it? I'm going to do my best to protect my own family, and the ones I have a good relationship with? Why is this inappropriate? Lu Yu felt that since everyone was unreasonable, there was no need for him to be polite and accommodating to them.

"You ......"

Fang Daping stood up again, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, don't quarrel here, this group will definitely not come again." He glanced at the onlookers, and said, "Da Yu is right, he won't lead those people to anyone's house, you can't blame him." ”

"It's easy to say, Lu Yu has a good relationship with you, and he will definitely take care of your family......"

Fang Daping smiled and didn't speak again.

When Lu Yu returned home, he felt relaxed.

When he got home, Lu Yu found that the wild boar in the backyard had been washed and skinned, and it was Lao Gao who came to help. Lao Gao helped Lu Yu divide the pork into several large pieces, and the pigs were cleaned up by Mrs. Yan.

At noon, Lu Yu made several meat dishes, some stir-fried, stewed and cooked, after the rice was ready, he asked Lao Gao to stay and eat, thought about it, and asked Yan Xiding to call Fang Daping.

Fang Daping originally had two sons, the eldest son was as old as Yan Xi'an, but when he was very young, he fell ill and died. Now there are only three people in his family, the couple and their youngest son, and Lu Yu asked Xiding to call all three of them over.

When Fang Daping came over, he also brought a small bag of cornmeal to Lu Yu. Lu Yu smiled and did not refuse.

Lu Yu still had half a jar of wine at home, and at noon he took it out and shared it with Bai Laogao and Fang Da.

There were many people eating, and one table could not sit down, so they divided into two tables, one table for those who drank and one table for those who did not drink. In addition to the square table in the living room, Lu Yu's house also has a small table, and the four men who are drinking sit on the small table.
