Chapter 4: Chu Rou
"Brother Xu, do you know what they are doing here?" Chu Xu was still listening intently to the small talk between his father and the old man, and the cousin next to him turned his head and asked.
"Well, Brother De, do you know?" Chu Xu looked at this cousin Chu De curiously, he was the second son of Uncle Chu Fu, and he didn't have much contact, after all, the age difference was ten years old.
Chu Xu's father Chu Xiong's generation is different from others, Chu Xiong is six or seven years younger than his elder brothers, and Chu Fu has no cultivation talent, Chu Xu's grandfather let several of them get married early and have children, so by the time Chu Xu was born, the rest of the cousins were already in their teens, and the age gap plus the usual Chu Xu concentrated on martial arts cultivation, so he didn't have much communication with his family.
But from the fact that he was ten years older than Chu Xu, but he was just a martial artist, he knew that he was not a weapon. Chu Xu has always been fair, and all the resources obtained from the master's family are used to cultivate the next generation, and all of them are only at the beginning of the martial arts, which is inevitably disappointing. I even heard that it lingers in the Goolan Tsing Yi place all the year round.
Chu Xu looked at his strange eyes, didn't know what he was paying attention to, and asked rhetorically.
"Your brother and I have been a little tight on funds recently, and I need a little financial sponsorship, I don't know if my brother is willing to support my brother's career. Chu De was sitting precariously, but the lewd smile on his lips could not be stopped.
Gently stuffed 10,000 Huaxia coins from the cuff. Said softly: "My brother needs funds, and my younger brother should sponsor it, but my younger brother doesn't have much work, and I studied martial arts every day before, and I don't have much income, so this is all I can do. β
Chu De looked at Chu Xu, who was not leaking, and couldn't help but think, didn't you say that this kid didn't know anything about the world?
"Brother Succession's mind, your brother has received it. Then Chu De pretended to be profound and said to Chu Xu, "Can Brother Xu see the crescent moon on their robes?"
Following Chu De's words, Chu Xu looked at it, and sure enough, the old man and the woman had a Chu character at each end of the sleeves of their robes.
"So what, the head of the Chu family, didn't you already know this, is this what Brother De wants to tell?" Chu Xu looked at Chu De suspiciously.
Seeing Chu Xu's expression, Chu De was a little breathless, and couldn't help but say, "Do you know, who in the main family can wear Chu character robes?"
"Isn't it okay for the Chu family?"
"No, the Chu family has strict family rules, stipulating that no matter who is only after arriving at the samurai, they are eligible to wear clothes with the crescent moon and Chu characters of the Jiangdong Chu family. In other words, hum," Chu De said proudly to Chu Xu.
"In other words, has that woman's strength reached that of a samurai?" Chu Xu said in surprise.
"Do you know how many young Heavenly Pride Girls there are in the Chu family, what is their name?" Chu De looked at Chu Xu and said word by word. "There are not a few girls in the Chu family who have reached the rank of samurai, but there is only one who has reached the rank of samurai at such a young age, Chu Rou. Chu De looked at Chu Xu playfully, very satisfied with Chu Xu's current demeanor, and looked stunned.
"Chu Rou, the head of the Chu family, Wuyi is waiting for Chu Yi's pearl in the palm of his hand, and the fiancΓ©e who has been married to me since she was a child?" Chu Xu couldn't help but have a big headache, there were a few good things at this time, he wasn't afraid that people would do something and make him lose face and be angry. As a young man who has been influenced by free marriage in the 21st century, he doesn't hate this kind of designated marriage, but he never likes it, so this marriage is more restrictive for him. But once he divorced, his whole family would lose face, not only would his father lose face, but even his mother would be poked in the back, thinking of what might happen to his mother, Chu Xu couldn't help but feel irritable.
"So you mean she's going to break the engagement?" Chu Xu suddenly stared at Chu De tightly, like an angry lion.
"No, not necessarily. Although some people have objected to Chu Rou and your marriage, Lord Wuyihou has the absolute right to speak in the family, and no one dares to refute it, and he has never thought of canceling the marriage contract. Chu De's words changed, "However, it is rumored that he was accepted as a disciple by a mysterious powerhouse and joined the sect, so Chu Rou was able to be promoted to a warrior in just two years, so what is he doing on his visit, unpredictable, with his mysterious master as the backing, even if it is Wu Yihou, he has to consider Chu Rou's own thoughts, so you have to prepare for the worst." β
"Prepare for the worst?" Chu Xu couldn't help but clench his fists, this kind of fate decided by others is really uncomfortable, and it was soon loosened again, and even the injuries on his body had to rely on his father to ask for help from others to heal, what could I do.
Turning his head to look at Chu De: "Brother De, do you know this news in detail, and how did you know it, I'm afraid my father doesn't know a lot of information." β
"The relationship between Uncle Tuo and Wu Yihou, my brothers and I also have the honor to go to the master's house to study, and my cultivation qualifications are not good, so I like to inquire about these side news, so I know a lot of things. β
"Brother Xu, don't get me wrong, your brother De, I came to tell you this, not entirely for money, but I hope you don't be impulsive. β
"Impulsive?" Chu Xu glanced at Chu De deeply.
"That's right, I'm afraid that you will be impulsive for my brother, although we are not brothers, and our brothers rarely communicate because of the age gap. But your brother De is very self-aware, I know that my cultivation qualifications are not good, and I took the resources to train warriors, and I barely became a martial artist, I understand, one glory and one loss, so I hope that no matter what happens, you can heal your injuries first, only then can you step by step towards what you want to do. β
I didn't expect Chu De to say such a thing, which was completely different from Chu De's impression just now.
"You are the only one of us who has the potential to be promising, our generation depends on you, and the rise of the Chu family will fall on your head, forgive your elder brothers, so everything is premised on your recovery, and the rest of the trivial matters will be taken back one by one until you have the strength." β
Just when Chu Xu and Chu De were chatting, Chu Xiong and the old man in plain clothes also started a different topic.
"The head of the Chuxiong family knows who this person below me is. The old man in plain clothes said to Chu Xiong.
"At that time, I was worried about my beloved son, but I didn't ask the identity of all my colleagues one by one, I don't know this young lady?," Chu Xiong looked at it carefully, then shook his head and apologized.
"Chu Rou has been practicing outside with his master for two years, and it is reasonable that Uncle Chu Xiong can't recognize it, and under Chu Rou, his father Chu Yi. Chu Rou smiled.
"Haha, it turned out to be Chu Rou's niece, I said why is it so beautiful, but I heard that Wu'er was injured and came to visit. Chu Xiong praised with a smile, as if he saw his future daughter-in-law, and suddenly felt a little happy.
"It's not a secret, in addition to visiting Chu Xu and accompanying the eldest grandfather to treat you Chu Xu, there is also a matter of asking for something. Chu Rou's verdant voice was like a jade bead falling on a plate, but it was a burst of slams on Chu Xu's body.
Chu Xiong was stunned, Chu Rou is the pearl of the Chu family's prestige clan, and he is more than 10 million meters behind him, so what can he help with? Although he is older than her, he has not made any progress in his strength for many years, so what can he do to help? Could it be? The sphincter at the corner of Chu Xiong's mouth twitched lightly twice, his face was much gloomy, and the hand holding the cup also shook twice, and after tasting a cup of tea, he said to Chu Rou with a little hoarseness, please say.
"I don't know if my uncle can let other people involved wait out, this matter is relatively private, and Rou'er doesn't want others to know. Chu Rou stared at Chu Xiong and said with a smile.
Seeing this smile, Chu Xiong not only became angry, deceived people too much, without the slightest guilt, but also turned against the customer. "Since it's a private matter, Chu continues to stay, and the rest will go down. β
