Chapter 68: Being Poor and Not Dying to Be an Immortal (2)
On this morning, Huai Jing got up and couldn't find Yun Wujing, and walked to the martial arts training ground with a life talisman, Ji Hui turned over and hugged an air, and then slowly stretched a jade hand between her legs, when the sky was about to dawn.
In a house closest to the city gate in Changzhifang, Huaiyuan looked out of the window and fell on the flower and stone landscape carefully built by the owner in the middle of the courtyard.
The scenery is much smaller than that of the Huaijia Mansion, and the bluestone used is lighter in color, and the pattern is also less charming.
But at this moment, in his eyes, it is also quite amorous.
This family was an old friend of his father, and because he went to Kaifeng with the transfer of the previous prefect, he handed over the property to the Huai family to take care of.
Although the pattern is small, the elegance is first-class. Staying idle for a few days can also change your mood, and it is not as bad as imagined.
If it weren't for the fact that all three of his younger brothers were in bed, maybe he would have been in a better mood.
Huaidu, Huaiyi, Huaiwei, open business on weekdays, close business, and still sit in the wine house in the Gaoge Wine Factory, and accept people from all over the world to discuss the sale of human lives. He watched his family's business gradually improve, and watched his brothers make a fortune, but he was actually quite conflicted in his heart.
On the one hand, the family has more money, and he has no reason to oppose it, on the contrary, he has to acquiesce or support. Because no one hates silver, especially the elders of the Huai family who retired to the rivers and lakes, like the second uncle, went out to travel around the world in the spring, and came back in the autumn, not to visit relatives at home, but to ask for silver from the account office.
I remember that day when the second uncle saw the numbers on the account, how cold he was in the past, and he didn't smile at his style, he actually praised a few younger brothers for the first time, and that scene made Huaiyuan feel sour every time he remembered it;
On the other hand, he is deeply worried about the future of the Huai family. The reason why the Huai family can be passed down to this day is because everyone who is in the Huai family is honestly a killer and an assassin who does not see the light. If the person with a family changes his career and becomes a businessman...... Just thinking about it makes me shudder and worry.
When I didn't want to have a good ride with my family, Yun Wujing came.
All the people who hit couldn't hold their heads up.
The three brothers who wanted to get wind and rain were beaten, and their faces were gone.
Hey, although Yun Wujing came because of him, the response of the three younger brothers was really terrible.
We are the ones who don't see the light of home!
It's not Xuzhou's city defense army!
When he was in a trance, Yan Zhen entered the house and said to him, "It's here." ”
Huaiyuan's already gloomy face showed a smile that had fulfilled his wishes, and asked, "Where is it?"
"Three miles outside the city. ”
Huaiyuan said: "Let's go, let's go and greet you!"
Yan Zhen asked with some uncertainty: "The old slave is a little worried in his heart, but he is afraid of ushering in a useless person." ”
Huaiyuan said: "You should know that the cloud arrest order that caused a sensation in the rivers and lakes many years ago. At that time, the Immortal Gang was just a small gang in Jiangning, and I didn't know what the gang leader thought, and Yun Wujing, who was disgusted with people and ghosts, issued an order for the whole gang to arrest him. provoked countless people's sideways, and also remembered the name of the Undead Gang. ”
Yan Zhen sighed: "Who would have thought that in three or four years, the Immortal Gang would develop to the point where the north and south are connected, and the 100,000 gang is 100,000 crazy." And the number of 100,000 people in this family is only behind the Taoist sect and the Buddhist family. ”
Huaiyuan reminded him: "But how can Daomen or Buddhism be regarded as a family?"
As they spoke, the two of them had come out into the street.
Xuzhou's heaven said that his face changed when he changed his face, and the wind was still beautiful a moment ago, and it rained lightly in a blink of an eye.
Many people get up in the morning to see that the weather is good, go to the street to buy something to eat, but they get drenched in the rain and rush home with breakfast.
didn't have time to shout bad luck, and even went back to the house to put down food for his family, and planned to do something in the rain with an umbrella, but when he went out to look, he was dumbfounded.
There was a dark cloud in the sky, and the sun came through, and the rain was still there, and before it left, the sun also sprinkled down, making the raindrops bright and dazzling. Thousands of drops of rain in the air refracted the light, dazzling and colorful, as if painting the saint Wu Daozi in the heavenly palace unwilling to be lonely took countless colors in the world, splashed into the clouds, and then melodiously fell from the sky.
Many people stood under the eaves and watched this sudden sun rain.
Huaiyuan and Yan Zhen were on Weiwen Street leading to the city gate, unobstructed, sighing at the wonder of creation and the wonder of heaven and earth.
Someone at the gate in front of him ran to the two men and said, "The man has arrived!"
At this time, the person who Huaiyuan had been waiting for sat on a sedan chair carried by two people, and entered Xuzhou City in a leisurely manner.
The soft sedan chair is nothing more than a soft stool and two horizontal logs, but under the man's buttocks, it looks like an extremely comfortable bed.
This man stretched out his arms, palms facing the rain in the sky, looking at the bright and fine rain, revealing a happy smile.
The sky was half rainy and half clear, the water vapor was floating, and there was a faint morning haze, and he didn't pay attention to it, or ignored the two people carrying the sedan chair, he seemed to be lying in the smoke, like a fairy in the clouds and mist, slowly drifting.
It's a pity that the two people carrying the sedan chair are too conspicuous, not to mention their appearance, but the outfit of these two people, at first glance, they look like beggars, poor and begging for food.
They each wore a pair of straw sandals on their feet, revealing their black necks. He wore a sackcloth on it, and there was no brocade and wool between the outer cover and the inner inside like a rich man, but reeds and grass wool were added, which looked thick but not frozen.
It is really the way to wear today's Great Song Dynasty, the lowest class people.
The person sitting on the sedan chair was dressed a little strangely.
The legs are crossed, and the feet are also a pair of straw sandals, exactly the same as the two asking for food, they are also bare their necks, and the trouser legs are rolled up at the calf and half of them are exposed, and they are shaking and shaking, so uncomfortable! The other leg stepping on the crosswood, the pants are not rolled up, the straw sandals on the feet are also torn, and the big toe is poked out, and as the crossed legs shake and shake, the exposed toes also shake.
The pants were patched with a coarse cloth, but they fit well and were clean, dark gray.
Wearing a gray robe, with a long collar and a long placket, it looks like a coat, but the waist is slightly narrow, and the clothes are elegant, and the whole person looks tall and heroic on him.
When they arrived, Huaiyuan and Yan Zhen hugged their fists and saluted. Huaiyuan greetings: "Martial arts gang leader, Huai has heard of the prestige of the immortal gang, and has admired it for a long time, and I am fortunate to meet today to wash the dust for the gang leader!"
The man wiped his body and jumped down from the sedan chair, and in the eyes of the two, he only felt that this person's figure flickered and stood in front of him.
In fact, when I saw him sitting on a soft sedan chair before, I couldn't see his face clearly, even his figure, not necessarily. At this moment, when they were in front of them, they asked the two to look at each other clearly.
He is not tall, but he is tall and imposing, and it is difficult to judge his age. The face is like a crown of jade, the sword eyebrows and starry eyes, showing the heroic spirit, the hair is combed neatly and neatly, the sideburns, the back of the neck, there is no trace of chaos, and an ebony gentleman's crown is worn on the top.
The gray robe was put on his body, making him tall and straight, and heroic.
Yan Zhen stood behind Huaiyuan, and couldn't help but admire in his heart, how could ordinary people have such an appearance?
