Chapter Ninety-Eight: Putting the cart before the horse
If you ask why you study to seek fame, you will say that it is all for survival; If you ask why you depend on reading to survive, then you say that this is not the only way.
Everything in the world is like this, although people in the world are not born because of money, they can die because of money, which is the so-called death of people for money, and death of birds for food.
Sometimes you know that it will be empty in the end, but you still have to have a life-and-death struggle in this complicated world.
In the end, if you win, everything is easy to say, and if you lose, there is also a saying that you will become a king and lose a king to comfort yourself.
The good is you, and the bad is you. Which is right or wrong between the two is up to you.
This is just like Yang Yiwen's mentality of being in the world, although he has tried repeatedly but failed, he still boasts of a clear stream.
So much so that to this day, he always daydreams about that one day in the future, he will be able to meet Bole, and then be able to glorify his ancestors and become famous.
It's a pity that Yang Yiwen, who is nearly 30 years old, has not really seen himself clearly.
Maybe he is really a once-in-a-century talent, but he is guilty of a common problem inherent in most people - overestimating himself and underestimating others.
Yang Yiwen just took it for granted that he was only eight years old, and he was rich and five cars, so he should be superior. But he didn't fully realize that he still had a series of potential hidden dangers that were difficult to overcome, such as timidity, greed for life, fear of death, and fear of the tail, and even he himself had not yet been aware of it.
Imagine what else can a person who can grieve to the point of crying his father and calling his mother after his books are broken?
It was still a bit overcast that morning. At this moment, Wu Xianggong was already out, while Liu Ruotian was still asleep and was reluctant to get up.
At this moment, Liu Ruotian, who was sleeping in a daze, just turned over and was suddenly awakened by a terrible scream.
After Liu Ruotian heard the sound, he opened his eyes and got up to check the situation.
Then, Liu Ruotian was surprised to find that there was an abnormality in Yang Yiwen's house next door, so he hurriedly got up and went to find out.
At this time, the sky was just dawning.
The layers of frost that formed during the night still covered the ground outside the house, and it had not completely melted.
Out of the door, the biting cold wind is still very penetrating. After only a while, Liu Ruotian was frozen with snot.
Seeing this, Liu Ruotian hurriedly returned to the house, and then changed into the cotton clothes that he had taken off before, and then dared to go out.
When he was young, Liu Ruotian, who was shivering from the cold, came to Yang Yiwen's door with his hands.
As soon as he arrived here, Liu Ruotian heard Yang Yiwen shouting inside, and the situation was very strange.
Seeing this situation, Liu Ruotian didn't dare to hesitate more, even if he quickened his pace, and then hurried to the back room.
As soon as he entered the house, Liu Ruotian was dumbfounded.
I saw Yang Yiwen sitting on the edge of the bed, unkempt and unkempt, with a pair of big feet exposed, already red from the cold. However, as if he was unconscious, he only hugged his head and cried.
On the dining table in front of Yang Yiwen, there was a small wooden board similar to a tablet, on which were written five big characters - "The Spirit of Love Books".
It turned out that Wu Xianggong only rescued him that day, and ignored the already tattered books and baggage.
When Yang Yiwen gradually woke up and asked the two about the whereabouts of these things, he learned from them that these beloved things of his were still unattended in the wilderness at the moment.
After Yang Yiwen learned about this, he ran desperately to the side of the path, trying to rescue his love book.
But when Yang Yiwen arrived there with great apprehension, he reluctantly found that the books scattered here had already been blown away by the strong wind last night.
Seeing this, Yang Yiwen had an extremely heavy heart, and then carefully picked up the few remaining pages, carried them in his arms, and carried them back to the wooden house safely.
On the eve of the eve, Yang Yiwen did not react much. Just when everyone thought that they were all right, they did not expect such a miracle to happen this morning.
Liu Ruotian has lived for so many years, and it is the first time he has seen someone set up a tablet for a book, so he can't help but laugh out loud.
Yang Yiwen on the side saw that Liu Ruotian was still laughing, and he cried more and more.
In the end, he simply threw himself on his knees, and then cried desperately.
"Oh my mother, how can I live here, why did you abandon me like this! Oops......"
Seeing this, Liu Ruotian couldn't help laughing even more. So he held the door frame with one hand and his stomach with the other, and burst out laughing.
"Hahahaha...... You're funny...... Hahaha...... If others don't know, they really think your mother is dead! ”
Yang Yiwen was crying to death or alive, and Liu Ruotian was smiling backwards, which was really different.
When he was young, Liu Ruotian may have realized that there was something wrong with his behavior, so he tried to calm down his emotions, and then stepped forward to inquire about the situation.
"There is a saying that the 'book' cannot be resurrected after death, so you have to mourn and change! For now, it is only important to find those robbers first, and then 'avenge' your love book! Tell me what are the people who rob you? ”
When dealing with people who are different, it is natural to use different methods to solve them. If not, it is not a way for him to cry like this all the time.
As soon as Yang Yiwen heard that Liu Ruotian wanted to help him, he wiped away his tears, and then carefully recalled the characteristics of those people.
Suddenly, Yang Yiwen, whose eyes were red from crying, said something to Liu Ruotian.
He said that he had seen one of the robbers somewhere before, but he did not know whose name he was. only vaguely saw that this person seemed to have two fingers broken, so Yang Yiwen was most impressed by him.
That's right, this person is Zhu Sangui.
It turned out that since Liu Aodong cleaned him up fiercely, the invincible Zhu Sangui was frightened by him, and he was really panicked, so that he was always worried that Liu Aodong would come to him again for trouble.
In desperation, Zhu Sangui thought of Zhu Jingqi. and wanted him to help him find another safe place, so that he could stay away from Liu Aodong, the terrifying "devil", to the greatest extent.
However, when he is a court teacher, how can he be seen by ordinary people?
For this reason, Zhu Sangui did not hesitate to scatter his family wealth to check up and down, in order to see Zhu Jingqi as soon as possible, and then be able to save his life.
Unexpectedly, after some tossing, his money was like a mud cow entering the sea. In this way, Zhu Sangui panicked.
However, he did not give up completely, but chose to go to Zhu Jingqi in person to ask for an understanding. I didn't want to, but I didn't even see Zhu Jingqi's figure, so I was blasted out by the family.
Originally, Zhu Sangui had no money at this time, but he didn't expect to encounter robbers on the way home, which was really worse.
Seeing this, Zhu Sangui came up with a bold idea.
Since you, Zhu Jingqi, don't miss the old feelings at all and want to put me to death, then I won't do anything and just fall into the grass.
In this way, he can not only save his life, but also rely on the power of these people to avenge his hatred.
Like this, there is no need to be afraid of the malicious disturbance of Liu Aodong and others, but he will be at ease.
However, if Zhu Sangui wants to join them smoothly and obtain the corresponding status in them, he must hand over some benefits.
After thinking about it again, Zhu Sangui immediately said to everyone, saying that he knew Zhu Jingqi's daughter Zhu Yanji.
If she is tied up to blackmail Zhu Jingqi, then they will not wait until the time comes.
As soon as the robbers heard that it was Zhu Jingqi's daughter who was going to be kidnapped, they became timid. However, Zhu Sangui assured everyone with confidence that this matter was absolutely foolproof.
So the crowd began to plan how to do this.
In order to make it easier to transfer and arrange personnel, the robbers also respected Zhu Sangui as a "military advisor" and asked him to give them advice.
However, these people have always been a rabble. Although it is difficult to make a climate, it can also create a lot of trouble.
One night, a few days later, someone came to report that they had found Zhu Yanji's residence, and it was a good time to start.
When everyone heard the news, they were overjoyed, and then immediately took action.
In order to prevent accidents, Zhu Sangui also deliberately sent two brothers who were quick and alert and nimble to take the lead. If the situation changes, they will be informed by a message.
So, where was Zhu Yanji at this time, so that Zhu Sangui and others dared to take risks and start her idea?
It turned out that Zhu Yanji was not in the Taishi Mansion at this moment, but in a newly built courtyard.
Do you still remember what Zhu Yanji wanted to take the opportunity to knock on Zhu Jingqi before? This courtyard is the price Zhu Jingqi paid after making his daughter angry.
Since Zhu Yanji arrived here, she has been smiling and laughing every day, and she has finally lived an unrestrained and free life.
Although it is quiet and elegant, it is also relatively remote. The distance from Zhufu is more than ten miles, so that there is a slight lack of security.
It's not that Zhu Jingqi doesn't worry about his daughter's safety, it's that he spoils Zhu Yanji too much, so much so that he has reached the point of obedience. How can we go on like this without evil?
But Zhu Yanji didn't think so, so she only asked her father to arrange a few maids and servants to serve here, but the rest of the guards were pitiful. If not, how dare Zhu Sangui have ill intentions towards him?
Besides, the scenery in this courtyard is really unique and ingenious.
On the side of the main entrance of the annex, there is a cloister. Around this corridor, there are hundreds of exotic flowers and plants.
These flowers and plants are planted in the natural order of the four seasons, so that the people in the courtyard can be surrounded by the refreshing fragrance of the flowers every day of the year. It will not make the people in this place sad because of the desolate scene around them when the seasons change.
According to the distance in the corridor, there are many resting places just right.
There are swimming fish jumping and springing, there are petals flying and landing, there are hundreds of birds competing and playing, there are beautiful scenery and pretty......
All of these make people happily return and indulge in it, which is really a fairyland of cultivating sentiment.
Just as Zhu Yanji was intoxicated, several masked people who appeared beside her suddenly broke this beautiful situation in an instant.
At this moment, it is already night, and there are already few people here, and now there is no one else around.
At first, Zhu Yanji was very frightened when she saw such a scene, so she screamed unconsciously.
However, this did not alert the people in the courtyard, but rather angered the robbers.
Seeing this, Zhu Yanji didn't feel scared, but walked in front of Zhu Sangui alone, and then joked with him with a hippie smile.
At this time, Zhu Yanji thought that this was a "special performance" specially arranged for Zhu Jingqi in order to make her happy. As everyone knows, they are robbers who kill people without blinking.
And when Zhu Yanji gradually realized her dangerous situation and tried to escape, it was too late.
At this critical moment of life and death, a man suddenly appeared in front of them, presumably to rescue Zhu Yanji.
