Volume 1 The Ups and Downs of This Life Chapter 94 Mrs. Long
After the proprietress left, Hu Liang drank several sips of wine and said slowly: "Lao Li, you are becoming more and more soft-hearted, you are the one who said outside the city that it doesn't matter about it, and now you are the one who is moved by compassion when you enter the city, you used to encounter this kind of thing, and you won't even blink your eyes more." ”
Li Xuandu said helplessly: "People's hearts will change, you see many emperors in the history books, when they were young, they were all promising kings, but when they were old, they were deaf, in the final analysis, their minds have changed, the heart of the old life is lovely, and there is no vitality when they were young; I have experienced a lot of ups and downs, and there will inevitably be some changes in my mind. ”
This time it was Hu Liang's turn to let out a long sigh.
Li Xuandu changed the topic and asked, "What kind of character is Long Xiaoyun, the head of the Long family? You often walk on the rivers and lakes, and you are better informed than me. ”
Hu Liang didn't answer immediately, but asked, "Do you really want to take care of this gossip?"
Li Xuandu shook his head and said: "I know how many catties and taels I have, but we have come to Ping'an County, so we must know ourselves and our opponents, so as not to catch us off guard." ”
Hu Liang thought for a while and said: "Long Yuyun this person, I have no contact with him, but I heard that this person's martial arts training qualifications are excellent, he was accepted by an elder of Jing Zen Buddhism at a young age, and he has practiced martial arts for many years. ”
Li Xuandu fell into deep thought.
Hu Liang sighed and continued: "Lao Li, it's not me talking about you, after all, you are not as good as before, not to mention that Long Yuyun is very likely to set foot in the Returning to Truth Realm, even if he doesn't set foot in the Returning to Truth Realm, he can't do a sword thing like you used to, if he is lucky enough to set foot in the Returning to Truth Realm, Yin and Yang are combined, and return to the basics, even if I have the 'Great Grandmaster' in my hand, I'm afraid I am not his opponent, he provokes the people of the Lady Sect, it is inevitable that the two tigers will fight each other, and there will be an injury." So whether you wade into this muddy water or not, you can weigh it yourself. ”
Li Xuandu asked rhetorically, "If I want to wade into troubled waters, what are you going to do?"
Hu Liang smiled bitterly: "What else can I do, accompany you to wade through the troubled waters." ”
Li Xuandu shook his head and smiled: "This is not like what you said when you advised me not to act rashly just now. ”
Hu Liang sighed: "At this time and that time, of course I don't want to mix these things, and I don't want you to mix it, if you are willing to listen to me, then it will be the best." But if you don't want to listen to me, then I can't help it, I can't watch you go alone, so I can only go with you. ”
Rao has known and intersected for many years, and Li Xuandu was also moved at this moment, and at the same time felt a little guilty, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's difficult to know people, and when you don't have a tribulation, you don't see your true temperament." Tianliang, do you know what I just thought of you?"
Hu Haoqi asked, "What do you think of me?"
Li Xuandu stretched out his finger and pointed at him, and said in an accentuated tone: "Sophistication!"
Hu Liang didn't care, and laughed and said: "People live for a lifetime, how can there be no worldly sophistication? If everyone is the heroic hero in that story, there will not be so many disputes on the rivers and lakes." ”
Li Xuandu nodded and said, "That's right. ”
Hu Liang poured himself a drink and asked, "Lao Li, you reappeared in the rivers and lakes this time, do you have any other ideas besides wanting to settle the grievances of the year?"
"Absolutely. Li Xuandu said softly: "Since I am from the right path, I also want to be a person in the right path and do some chivalrous things within my ability." ”
......
After the sky was bright, the Long family mansion, which had been silent all night, came back to life. Although the maids and servants were busy with their own errands, they could not hide the panic on their faces.
Today's dragon mansion in the undercurrent surging, the city Wancheng dart bureau more than a dozen dart head dart master died the news has spread throughout the whole house, should have returned to the dart bureau at this time the old dart head Luo Xiao and has not returned, for a time there are thousands of strange rumors in the house, some people say that this is the devil's trouble, some people say that this is a ghost to ask for life, and some people say that the enemy on the rivers and lakes has spent a lot of money, please move the killer of Wan Dumen, to destroy Wancheng Dart Bureau and Long's full door. All the rumors are conclusive, and they are almost sworn by the sky.
The head of the Long family, Long Yuyun, is still in retreat, and the people of the Long Mansion say to the outside world that the lady is in charge, but for some reasons unknown to outsiders, it is actually the chief steward who is in charge. There are a few stewards under the chief steward, who are not subordinate to each other, they are all directly under the orders of Long Yuyun, so they are not convinced by each other, and they look like they are separated, after the chief steward goes to the dart bureau, the dragons in the Dragon Mansion have no leader, and no one can suppress this increasingly fierce people's hearts.
In the bedroom of the main courtyard of the Long family's mansion, a woman had just gotten up, sitting lazily in front of the dressing mirror, and the little maid behind her combed her hair. Although the woman is nearly forty years old, because of her pampering, her beauty has not diminished, and her mature feminine style is about to come out.
At this time, she looked at herself in the bronze mirror and was stunned. married a martial arts idiot husband, not a good person, married for many years, her husband practiced in retreat all day long, just as she was a clay puppet, it can be said that she has been neglected for a long time.
A woman of this age, in the year of the tiger and wolf, after tasting the best taste in the world, where can she endure loneliness, but unfortunately this is the Long family, her husband is a first-class martial arts master figure, the slightest wind and grass will be detected, she can only stay alone in the empty room night and night, and now this eyebrows and sideburns are groomed, and I don't know who to see!
After finishing the makeup, the woman changed into a gorgeous palace dress, and when she was a little bored, a housekeeper gently knocked on the door outside and respectfully reported: "Madam, Master Sun is visiting." ”
The woman's face changed imperceptibly.
In this huge Ping'an County, the only person who can be called Master Sun is Sun Hui, the head of the Sun family.
She thought for a moment and asked, "Do you have a female dependent?"
The lady in charge hurriedly nodded and said, "Mrs. Sun also came over." ”
After all, the woman is from everyone's background, and the etiquette that should be there is still no deficiency, since the other party still has a female dependent, then she will relax a little, so it is not rude to go out to see each other, and ordered: "Please go to the flower hall Master Sun." ”
The so-called flower hall is the place where the guests of the inner house of the large family meet, generally the architectural layout of the inner and outer coat room, and the drinking banquet can make the people who are not strong enough to drink temporarily rest in the inside, so there is a screen partition between the inside and outside, the outside is the place of the guests, and there is a bed in the inside.
After a short while, Mrs. Long came to the flower hall, where a middle-aged couple was already seated. The man looked at him quite old, in his forties, with three locks of long beard and an elegant demeanor. The woman is a mature woman with excellent charm, fresh and elegant, and I want to come to such a woman, whether it is twenty years ago or twenty years later, she is a talented woman that many men covet. She and Mrs. Long are two completely different women, the former is an elegant lotus, and the latter is a graceful peony, each with its own touching features.
Mr. and Mrs. Long and Mr. and Mrs. Sun are old acquaintances, and Mrs. Long and Mrs. Sun are close friends, so they can't talk about avoiding suspicion or not, after a few words of greeting each other, Sun Hui took a sip of tea and said: "I also just learned about the Wancheng Dart Bureau, more than a dozen lives, the stakes are very high, so I specially came to visit one or two, I don't know if Brother Long has ever been out of the customs?"
It was only at this time that Mrs. Long realized that something seemed to have happened to the Wancheng Dart Bureau, thinking of the strange atmosphere in the mansion today, her face couldn't help but turn slightly pale, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Seeing that she didn't know about it, Sun Hui couldn't help but be stunned, so he could only roughly talk about the rumors in the city.
After hearing this, Mrs. Long was shocked, "There is such a thing? In broad daylight, there is such a vicious person...... What a guts......"
Speaking of this, Madame Long's face was already snow-white.
Mr. and Mrs. Sun glanced at each other, and Mrs. Sun said: "Sister don't worry too much, I think it's a little bit of a small river, take advantage of Mr. Long's retreat to provoke, and after Mr. Long comes out of the customs, he will retreat." ”
After being comforted by Mrs. Sun's gentle words, Mrs. Long was also a little relieved, of course she would not think that it was some evil devil doing it, most of it was a vendetta on the rivers and lakes, but the Dragon Mansion had Long Xiaoyun in charge, as long as he waited for him to get out, there was no need to be afraid of anything.
The three of them talked some homely gossip again, and Mrs. Long got up late, and between the conversations, it was already noon, so Mrs. Long got up and instructed the housekeeper who was standing outside the door: "Go and prepare a table of wine, I will feast on Master Sun and Sister Sun." ”
"Yes, ma'am. The lady in charge immediately answered, and turned to leave.
When Mrs. Long sat down again, there was a gust of fragrant wind, and Sun Hui, who was sitting on the side, had a strange look on his face, and he subconsciously turned his head to look, and it happened that Mrs. Long was also looking at him at this time.
The eyes of the two intersected, and the woman's eyes flowed, and she was ashamed to speak.
