After the servant woman withdrew, Wang Xiaoyu flattened her mouth and said to Wang Yuanwai: "Daddy, have you seen it?" You said that the affairs of the family should be handled by your daughter, but even such a trivial matter as setting up a banquet, they didn't listen to me, and they asked Daddy to make a decision. Alas, I see that they look down on their daughters at all. If the father doesn't give his daughter a prestige, they don't know what means to use to embarrass their daughter!"

Wang Yuanwai smiled and said: "You have such a hot temper, how dare they make you angry? Xiaoyu, these people work hard every day, it is not easy to make a living, our father and daughter have a lot to rely on them, you must not deliberately embarrass them." ”

Wang Xiaoyu said: "They pretend to be respectful servants in front of their father, but in front of me, they love to ignore it, and they serve yin and yang." There are also some hateful house slaves with sinister intentions, sowing discord in front of their fathers, and vainly trying to destroy our Wangjiazhuang. ”

Wang Yuanwai's face changed, and he said: "Don't let the children's family talk about it, let Zhu Gongzi and Miss Murong laugh shamefully, where is the face of our father and daughter?"

Wang Xiaoyu said: "Wu Laosi is a living example! He relied on the favor of the Wuda girl, flaunted his power in the Zhuangzi, and won over a group of people with foreign surnames, wanting to seize the position of the owner of the village of his father......

Wang Yuanwai didn't wait for Wang Xiaoyu to finish speaking, and said in a deep voice: "That's enough! What do you say about these messy things?

Wang Xiaoyu said: "This matter also has something to do with Zhu Gongzi, otherwise I don't have to tell my father." Zhu Gongzi went to Jinan Mansion to run errands, encountered wind and waves at sea, damaged the boat, and drifted to Dongliao County. In order to repair the mast, Zhu Gongzi's friend came to our Wangjiazhuang to buy wood. Wu Laosi and several of his henchmen gambled money in the gatehouse, resenting Zhu Gongzi's friends for disturbing them, and even did not report to his father, concealed the matter, and led a big fight to drive Zhu Gongzi's friends out of Zhuangzi. ”

Wang Yuanwai was surprised, glanced at Wang Xiaoyu, and said, "Is this true?"

Li Qiufeng saw that Wang Xiaoyu was speaking solemnly, and was about to explain a few words, but heard Wang Xiaoyu say: "Of course it's true! In order to cover up his ugly deeds of gathering people to gamble and set up his father, Wu Laosi, a wicked slave, simply did not stop doing anything, sowing discord and framing Zhu Gongzi's friend for stealing wood from the Sky Ridge ......"

Wang Yuanwai's face changed greatly, and before Wang Xiaoyu finished speaking, he immediately said in a deep voice: "This evil slave dares to do such an evil thing, but he is against him!"

Murong Danyan secretly thought in his heart, although Wu Laosi was domineering, but the idea of ambushing Li Qiufeng and the others on the Sky Ridge was Wang Xiaoyu himself, and it had nothing to do with Wu Laosi. Wang Xiaoyu framed Wu Laosi, naturally because he had long been dissatisfied with the Wu brothers and wanted to take this opportunity to drive the two out of Zhuangzi.

I only heard Wang Xiaoyu say: "My daughter mistakenly believed Wu Laosi's lies, and brought someone to Motianling last night, and almost had a conflict with Zhu Gongzi's friend. Fortunately, Sister Murong and Zhu Gongzi mediated between them, so they didn't have any dirt. And after last night's incident, her daughter found that Wu Laosi had formed a party of his own in Zhuangzi and had a lot of power. The Zheng brothers and Mao Lao Er exposed the treacherous conspiracy of the Wu brothers and sisters, they were so bold that they wanted to assassinate their father, take away their father's property, and then drive the Wang clan out of Wangjiazhuang and change this Zhuangzi into a martial arts village. ”

The more Wang Yuanwai listened, the more shocked he became, and his face turned pale. Li Qiufeng sat on the side, thinking that Wang Xiaoyu's words were not true, most likely because she had long wanted to deal with the brothers and sisters of the Wu family, but the girl of Wuda was quite popular with Wang Yuanwai, and it was not easy to bring down the two brothers and sisters. happened to accompany Xiao Dong to Motianling to steal wood, Wu Laosi was arrogant and domineering, and was finally caught by Wang Xiaoyu. She took the opportunity to take down Wu Laosi, and slandered in front of Wang Yuanwai, naturally she wanted to uproot the Wu family brothers and sisters and her confidants, which went to her heart.

I only heard Wang Yuanwai say: "This matter is very important, and it must be considered in the long run." Don't worry about this, let your Uncle Wang find out. ”

Wang Xiaoyu wanted to say more, but when he saw that Wang Yuanwai's face was not good, he had to nod. At this moment, I only heard someone outside the door say respectfully: "Master Qiqi, the wine and food have been set up in the Wanghua Pavilion." Invite the lord and distinguished guests to the back garden to dine. ”

Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan walked out of the main hall with the Wang father and daughter, and walked through the courtyard five times in a row, and then arrived in the back garden. The more Li Qiufeng walked, the more frightened he became, and secretly thought that for ordinary large families, it was rare to enter the courtyard three times. Wang Yuanwai was just a merchant selling medicinal herbs, and it was unbelievable that he could build a mansion of this scale. No wonder there is a rumor that he has a cornucopia hidden in his house, and if you see the situation in this courtyard, it is hard to believe that he is just a self-made medicine dealer.

When I walked into the back garden, I saw a huge pond in front of me, and the green grass on the shore around it was very smooth. A nine-curved stone bridge was built over the pond, and an octagonal pavilion stood in the middle. This pavilion is more than a foot high, with red pillars and green roofs, and there is a stone table and six stone benches in the pavilion. At this time, the stone table was already full of wine and food, and the four servants stood in the four corners of the pavilion, serving carefully.

Wang Yuanwai let Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan into the pavilion, and after the guests sat down, he waved his right hand slightly, and the four servants quietly withdrew from the pavilion and walked to the shore. The six or seven servants, who had been waiting around the pond, saw the four servants retreat to the shore, so they went out of the back garden with the four of them. As a result, only the father and daughter of the Wang family, Li Qiufeng, and Murong Danyan were left in the huge back garden.

When Li Qiufeng entered the back garden, there was something strange in his heart. The back garden covers a large area, but there is not a single tree, just green grass and dwarf flowers planted on the shore, and the whole garden seems empty. The pavilion stands in the middle of the pool, and is set off by the grass and flowers on the surrounding shore, making it look taller and taller. Li Qiufeng secretly thought in his heart that trees were not allowed to be planted in the imperial palace of the capital, because he was afraid that an assassin would assassinate him, and he would hide on the big tree and not be able to find out. However, there are also many trees planted in the imperial garden, and there are rockeries with strange shapes made of Taihu Lake stones. Wang Yuanwai is just a rich family outside the gate, and it is already a little strange that there are no trees in the house, and even the wind in the garden is not enough for a big tree, isn't it extremely strange?

When Li Qiufeng was thinking about it, he saw Wang Yuanwai holding a wine glass and said to him: "The arrival of Zhu Gongzi is a great joy. As the saying goes, listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years. Fang Cai had a very happy conversation with Zhu Gongzi and benefited a lot. If there is a chance in the future, we can do some business together, and everyone will make a fortune together! Come, Zhu Gongzi, Murong girl, let's make this cup and talk about Wang's sincerity in welcoming guests. ”

Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan hurriedly stood up, held the wine glass in both hands, and thanked them in their mouths. Wang Yuanwai's face was full of joy, and he handed over the wine glass, wanting to clink glasses with Li Qiufeng. Li Qiufeng stepped forward with a cup in both hands, and at the same time moved his hands down a few points to show respect. Seeing that the wine glasses of the two were about to touch one place, Li Qiufeng dived into internal force, and a true qi rose from the dantian, gathered in the middle of the chest, and then separated from the left and right, through the shoulders and shoulders, through the Quchi points between the left and right arms and elbows, and passed to the cup held in both hands.

The cup in Wang Yuanwai's hand touched Li Qiufeng's wine glass slightly, and he suddenly felt that his palm was hot, and the small wine glass sank instantly, and it fell off from his hands.

Wang Yuanwai was shocked, and watched the wine glass fall from his hand and fall straight to the wine and food bowls on the table. In the midst of the lightning, a hand suddenly appeared in front of him, holding it at the bottom of the falling wine glass, holding the wine glass firmly in the palm of his hand. Wang Yuanwai was surprised and delighted, and looked fixedly, but it was Li Qiufeng who stretched out his right hand and held the cup he had dropped at the last moment. He reached out and took the glass, and said with a smile: "I'm so old that I can't even hold a small wine glass steadily." ”

Murong Danyan was in his heart. Although her internal strength cultivation is limited, she also saw that when Li Qiufeng clinked glasses with Wang Yuanwai, she had already used her internal strength and took the opportunity of clinking glasses to attack Wang Yuanwai. The wine glass in Wang Yuanwai's hand seemed to fall to the table because of his momentary mistake, but in fact, he was excited by Li Qiufeng's internal force, so that Wang Yuanwai couldn't hold it before he let it go. It's just that Li Qiufeng's martial arts are strong, and his internal strength is sent and received from the heart. After the true qi touched the cup outside the king, he immediately took it back. Wang Yuanwai just felt that his hand was sinking, and the cup had already fallen, and he didn't notice that Li Qiufeng had done anything from it. When the cup in Wang Yuanwai's hand fell off, Li Qiufeng shot like electricity and caught the cup again. If Wang Yuanwai is equipped with martial arts, when Li Qiufeng approaches with internal force, he will naturally fight back with internal force, and the cup will definitely not fall so easily. Murong Danyan saw Li Qiufeng acting like this, and his heart was full of suspicions, secretly thinking that Brother Li would attack Wang Yuanwai with internal force, but he instantly retracted his true qi, obviously just to test whether Wang Yuanwai was equipped with martial arts, not to do it with Wang Yuanwai. Wang Yuanwai is generous and benevolent, but Brother Li is so tempting to him, is there something else that can't be done?
