Chapter 249: Grateful

After the little scholar was kicked, he was frightened, he raised his head and found that Zhou Ming was standing in front of him, so he asked with some surprise: "Young master, didn't you go to rest a long time ago?" How did it take so little while to get up again? ”

Zhou Ming's mind was in the study, so he didn't bother to answer the little scholar's question, but just blindly urged: "Don't ask so much, little kid, go to the house and report it." ”

"Oh." The little scholar agreed softly, quickly stood up, and ran into the study.

Zhou Zhou Ming stood at the door of the study, listening carefully to the movements in the study, for fear that the uninvited guests inside would do something terrible after knowing the news that they had come.

Not long after the little scholar entered the study, there was a conversation inside.

"Master, the young master is asking to see me outside the door, let me pass it on."

After a moment of silence, Zhou Ruhai's voice said, "Let him come in, there is a guest here who is just looking for him." ”

Then the little scholar's answer was inaudible, followed by a rush of footsteps.

Zhou Zhou Ming tidied up his clothes and became fully guarded.

After the little scholar came out of the study, he said with a smile: "Young master, I have already finished the matter passed on for you, the master said please go in, there is just a guest in the study, looking for you to have something." ”

The little scholar wanted to say something more, but Zhou Ming directly raised his hand to stop him: "I know." Let me ask you, what kind of dress are the guests in the study? Who does it look like? ”

Seeing Zhou Ming ask like this, the little scholar made a difficulty, after all, he was only ten years old, and he grew up in the Zhou family, he had never seen much of the world, and he didn't know anything about the outside world.

"Young master, you really asked me, I can only tell you that the guest's face is not very good-looking, and he is dressed in black, it looks very expensive, and he must be from a big family.

Other than that, I can't see any other information. ”

After the little scholar said this, he lowered his head with some self-reproach, although he was young, he was still clear about Zhou Ming's family status at home, and his young master was so easy to use his own place, but he was so useless, he couldn't even figure out such a simple question.

Zhou Ming was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the questions he asked this little scholar just now were really a little stupid, on the one hand, this child is young and not very sensible, on the other hand, even if this little scholar has the ability, it is impossible to judge the uninvited guest inside just by appearance, who is it, let alone him, even Zhou Ming himself, I am afraid he does not have this ability.

"Okay, I can't answer my question, and I don't blame you, you keep a good guard here, in case you hear any big movement in the study for a while, you must be smart, and quickly notify the young grandmother in the backyard, just say what I said, let the young grandmother quickly take the old lady out to play, and don't come back for a while." Before Zhou Ming entered the study, he had prepared for the worst, so he specially told the little scholar, hoping that he could quickly let Lin Ajiao escape with his old mother after the accident, after all, if even he was not the opponent of the uninvited guest, even if Lin Ajiao came, he could only give away his head.

Instead of annihilating the whole army, it is better to let Lin Ajiao take advantage of the fight with the thief and quickly escape with her wife.

The little scholar didn't understand Zhou Ming's good intentions, so he stared at him and said a little timidly: "Young master, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Don't ask so much, just remember my words." Zhou Ming suddenly straightened his face and said with a serious face.

The little scholar was frightened all of a sudden, nodded hurriedly, and agreed.

Zhou Ming no longer hesitated, he left the little scholar, and walked into the study with firm steps, every step he took, he was fully prepared, ready to face a strong enemy at any time.

This study is dedicated to Zhou Ruhai, because he always reads late in the study at night, so the lights in the room are very sufficient.

As soon as Zhou Ming entered the door, he found that his father was sitting very stiffly at one side of the table, and on the other side of the table, there was a middle-aged man about thirty years old, who had a mustache under his nose and sharp eyes, and he looked like a smart person.

The clothes on his body are the same as the description of the little scholar outside the house, all over his body, all dressed in black, even the hat on his head is dark black, if it is not for the bright lights in the study, even if he hides in the shadows of the house, no martial arts cultivators, it is difficult to find his existence for a while with the naked eye.

And Zhou Ming found out through this person's breath that he was a person who cultivated martial arts, as for what level of martial arts cultivation he was in, Zhou Ming couldn't judge it for a while, it was not because his kung fu was not at home, but it was possible that this person was deliberately hiding his strength.

Zhou Zhou Ming couldn't help but think in his heart, the origin behind this person should be very simple, the reason why he wore black clothes must be to make it easier to act at night, because of this, the purpose of his coming this time is definitely not simple.

This uninvited guest, although he was chatting and talking with Zhou Ruhai on the surface, his attention was always on the door of the study, and as soon as Zhou Ming entered the study, he had already found out.

After seeing Zhou Ming, his whole body immediately tensed, and a strange light appeared in his eyes, as if he was ready to attack Zhou Ming at any time.

This kind of momentum made Zhou Ming dare not slack off, he paused a little in the process of walking, and then urged his vitality to prepare for the battle.

Just after Zhou Zhou Ming was fully prepared, he suddenly found that the uninvited guest, after the light in his eyes, did not continue to act, which made Zhou Zhou Ming feel a little dazed for a while.

Am I wrong in my guess? This kid has no ill will towards me?

Although he had such a thought in his heart, Zhou Zhou Ming still did not relax in the slightest, he walked to the middle of the room with solid steps, and in the process, he remained silent, and his eyes never took off the uninvited guest.

Zhou Ruhai sat on the chair and accompanied the uninvited guest, he had been chatting for a long time, and he was almost speechless at this time, but out of politeness, he did not show any impatience.

In fact, just now, the people in the family informed him that after a group of uninvited guests came outside the gate of the house, he was a little apprehensive in his heart, after all, his son had made such a great contribution last night, if there were accomplices of the northern thieves in the capital, they would definitely not let go of their son easily, and they would definitely find an opportunity to retaliate, and the group of people of unknown origin who came to the gate were likely to be the same party of the northern thieves.

After thinking of this possibility, Zhou Ruhai was extremely frightened, and he wanted to send someone to call Zhou up immediately, so that he could solve the dilemma in front of him.

But after thinking about it, he felt that it was inappropriate to do this, because although Zhou Zhou Ming is the most powerful person in the family at the moment, but he, who is a father, can't push everything on him, after all, he is still the head of the family, he can't behave so cowardly, and when his son is away, he should also be brave, otherwise in the long run, the family will only look down on him more, and thus disrespect himself.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ruhai cheered up and immediately asked the person who came back to report, how the group of people outside the gate talked and behaved, and on the surface, they didn't look like bad people.

As a result, the people who came in to report told Zhou Ruhai that this group of uninvited guests, judging from their appearance, did not look like bad people, and they also paid great attention to etiquette when talking to the subordinates in the house.

After learning the news, Zhou Ruhai had the bottom in his heart, because as a scholar, he knew very well that a person who spoke very politely to the subordinates in the family, even if he was a bad person, would not be bad.

After figuring out this truth, Zhou Ruhai immediately took people out to see the situation.

As a result, he briefly talked to the group of people before he realized that this group of people just came to the house to find Zhou Ming to deal with some things, and there was no malicious intent.

Zhou Ruhai relaxed all of a sudden, and he even told the group that his son had rested early, so let them have anything to say, just tell themselves.

He thought that if he lowered his posture and did this, the other party would definitely be grateful, and then leave what they said to himself.

But obviously he was thinking too much, and after those people heard his thoughts, they immediately showed embarrassment, saying that only Zhou Zhou Ming could handle what they wanted to do, even if he was Zhou Zhou Ming's father, he couldn't overstep his bounds.

After this group of uninvited guests expressed this meaning, Zhou Ruhai was very angry in his heart, after all, this group of people refused his kindness in front of everyone, which made him very faceless all of a sudden.

He wanted to take the opportunity to get angry and drive these people away, but considering that his son is now in the rising stage of his career, he offended this group of people for no reason, and he is likely to cause trouble for his son, after all, he still doesn't know anything about the background behind them.

And more importantly, just now he was already a hot face against someone's cold buttocks, if he gets angry at this time, he will inevitably be criticized, if people feel that he is narrow and can't tolerate people, then the gain outweighs the loss.

It is based on the above considerations, even in the case of humiliation, Zhou Ruhai still endured a sigh of relief, he invited the leader of this group to the house, took him to the study, accompanied him personally, and then instructed the subordinates in the family to hurry up and chirp Monday.

In the process of accompanying this uninvited guest, Zhou Ruhai spoke casually, and at the same time repeatedly thought in his heart, who sent this uninvited guest?

After thinking about it for a long time, he never came up with an answer.
