Chapter 123 Just Afraid of Pretending to Be a Pig and Eating a Tiger?
Su family.
The chief steward led the two sisters and brothers through the corridor, walked through the courtyard, and came to this courtyard.
"Little brother. ”
The chief steward said: "The Su family is outside, and there is often contact with people, and there is no shortage of distinguished guests, so when the house was rebuilt, it was also in the backyard and repaired some places for visitors to live. ”
Su Ting glanced at it and said, "Yes, this courtyard is okay." ”
The chief steward bowed slightly and said, "You have to take your luggage from the carriage later?"
Su Ting nodded and said, "Okay, just let someone take it." ”
The really valuable things, both sisters and brothers carry with them, and most of the things on the carriage are just a change of clothes and the like.
However, those five little monsters jumped away before coming to Su's house, and most of the nest was about to be cleared.
The chief steward whispered some trivial things that needed attention, and then withdrew.
Seeing the chief steward leaving, Su Yuefeng exhaled, looked at Su Ting, and said in a low voice: "Xiaoting, why did you give the jade box to others? ”
Su Ting smiled, approached, and said, "There is a saying, it is called an artist who is bold, and you know how high my ability is." Although this Kanling Su family is powerful, it can't help our sister and brother, not to mention, the old head of the Su family actually has no malice, at least not just now. ”
Su Yuefeng remembered his ability, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
Su Ting said with a smile: "If you don't have the ability, our sisters and brothers don't dare to come to the door rashly, after all, these six-sided jade plates are related to the secret of the Su family, and they are also related to a huge amount of money...... If you really don't have the ability, you come rashly, and you are waiting to be killed. ”
As he spoke, he looked in the direction he had come from, and raised his eyebrows.
In this world, there are never many such things as ruthlessness and murder.
A huge family like the Su family can climb to this position, and there are dark and dirty things in it, and it is impossible to say that there is no such thing at all.
Su Ting has never been an innocent and innocent teenager, and when he came, he thought about many situations.
It's just that he didn't expect that this old master was a little different from what he thought in his heart.
The scenario envisaged did not happen.
......
Su family ancestral hall.
Several old men came to the door of the ancestral hall.
The old master turned his head and said, "The explanation you want is inside." ”
At this moment, several clan elders were not so eager.
The old man in the sixtieth century, who was called Lao Qi, was still thinking about the cart of silver taels and the Lieyuan Huomu that symbolized the cart of silver taels, and he considered his words, but still persuaded: "Does the head of the family really want to do this legitimate business? Isn't this too cost-effective?"
The old man felt quite helpless, glanced at him, and then sighed, and said: "This huge amount of money, if you can save it, it will be earned, haven't you thought about it?"
As soon as these words came out, all the clan elders were surprised.
"Since the head of the family has thought about it, why don't you do it?" the seventh elder said in a deep voice: "However, the two young juniors don't seem to have practiced martial arts, so it is not difficult to deal with them. ”
The old man shook his head slightly, and said: "People can't look good, the sea can't fight, we only know that this young man is from the Su clan of Luoyue County, and the rest don't know anything, how to do it?"
As he spoke, he exhaled and said, "What's more, I can make the old temple Zhu of Luoyue County look at it, and I specially wrote a letter for him, which shows that the weight is not light." ”
Several clan elders, most of them know the old temple wishes, after all, this Song Lao also lived in the Su family for a period of time, and he is an old acquaintance with the old master.
But at this time, it sounds like it's not just old knowledge.
"This old man, although he is old, has a lot of ability, and he is tinkering with the art of ghosts and gods, and it is not easy to provoke. ”
The old master said slowly: "After all, this Su Ting knows him, even if he looks at the face of his old friend, it is not easy to attack this young man...... What's more, what is the condition of this young man, the old man is still uncertain. ”
An old man next to him, who was almost ancient, couldn't help but be surprised, and asked: "The head of the family has decades of experience, has seen the wind and waves, knows the emperor, and looks at people's eyes, he has always been extremely accurate, and he can't see through him?"
At first sight, the old man couldn't see through him. ”
The old man said: "That's why I laughed and talked with him for a long time, and it was a temptation, but it was like a fist in the cotton, and it was useless." ”
Several clan elders can also be called old fox-like characters, but they are not like him, facing this young man directly, but they don't have too many feelings.
"You are always in front of me, praising your juniors, how unfazed, how humble and not arrogant, how polite and thoughtful, and how easy you are at meeting people. ”
The old master said: "But today, this young man is better than the few juniors of the Su family that you are proud of. ”
The Seventh Elder shouted, "Isn't it?"
The old master exhaled and said, "How can he not be so easy in the face of us old guys, how many teenagers in the clan can be like him?"
"It's not from our main family, naturally he doesn't have the same as the juniors in our clan, he has been in awe since he was a child, and it is normal for him to be rude. ”
The Seventh Elder was saying this, but when he saw the old family master shaking his head, even if he didn't dwell on it too much, he changed his words and said: "Even if he admits this, he is indeed a little calm, but no matter how good he is, what does it have to do with us? He is not the descendant of our master's family, what kind of bullshit is a relative of three or five hundred generations, what is the difference between him and outsiders? Doesn't the family master want to cultivate him?"
"You still don't understand what I mean. ”
The old man shook his head and said: "This young man, in terms of demeanor and bearing, is even better than the descendants of our Su family, so such a young man, is he really a young man from a poor family? What is his origin? What kind of family background is he? Do you know? If you want to move him, do you still have the confidence?"
The Seven Elders were speechless when they were questioned by the head of the family.
The other clan elders also fell silent.
And the old head of the Su family, with his hands behind his back, showed a contemplative look.
"If it's just because of Song Lao, that's it. ”
"But I'm more skeptical of this teenager. ”
"He was dressed simply, but he had a good temperament, and he rode in a two-horse carriage and two good horses, and his family was anything but unusual. ”
"Look at what he said before, between the words, he was indifferent, in our Su family, in the face of our old guys, he didn't feel restrained, he was at ease, just this kind of heart is not bad. ”
What's more, I have tested him many times before and after, and I have vaguely threatened him a few times, but he still turns a blind eye and is fearless. ”
Speaking of this, the old master's gaze fell on the Seventh Elder and said, "Fearless of threats, do you really think he is a young man and ignorant?"
The Seventh Elder was speechless, he had always been impatient, but with many years of experience and power, he was not stupid.
The old master said in a low voice: "He is so plain, between his eyebrows, his expression is confident, nine times out of ten, he is consciously able to settle any obstacles that the Su family gives him." ”
At this time, another old man muttered, "But this young man looks so ordinary?"
"Ordinary...... That's what is scary. ”
The old master frowned and said: "If he is like the prince of the dynasty, he is magnificent, and he walks like a tiger, and he knows that he has an extraordinary origin at a glance, and you don't dare to touch him if you want to." But he seems ordinary, and he is like a trap......"
As he spoke, the old master looked at the Seventh Elder and said, "If it weren't for me this time, you would be the only one in the clan, would you have attacked him?"
"This ......" the Seventh Elder hesitated slightly, then nodded, "It's natural. ”
"That's it, pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger. The old man said, "The tiger is coming, and you dare not touch him, but when a mediocre pig comes, you want to slaughter and eat meat...... But in my eyes, what if this pig is really dressed as a dragon crossing the river?"
The elders were speechless for a moment.
"Head of the family......" The Seventh Elder hesitated, "Isn't it too cautious?"
"Isn't it because of my prudence that the Su family can have today?" said the old master, but he paused for a moment, and said: "However, I often think too much and be too cautious, so this matter cannot be all based on my guesses." ”
"What does the head of the house mean?"
He claimed to be from Luoyue County, so he went to Luoyue County to find out his origin and find out his roots. ”
The old man said seriously: "After finding out the roots of this young man, we can decide whether this matter can be saved as Lao Qi said." ”
When the Seven Elders heard this, they immediately praised: "The head of the family is wise, no wonder we couldn't fight you when we competed for the head of the family." ”
The old man waved his hand and said: "Don't play tricks, in addition to checking his identity, you also have to check, what kind of thing is the so-called Lieyuan Huomu?"
"This is the ...... I think it could be slower. The Seventh Elder said.
"Order someone to check it immediately, and there shall be no mistake. The old man said: "If you can't save this money, then this column of firewood should also be handed over to others." ”
The clan elders seemed to have an idea, and nodded in a deep voice.
And at this moment, another clan elder said in a deep voice: "This matter may not be without exception. ”
All eyes were on him.
The clan elder said: "If we investigate the mystery of this jade plate as soon as possible and get the great secret passed down by our ancestors, then this jade plate is just a jade card, and at that time, return the six-sided jade card to him, that is." ”
The Seventh Elder smiled: "It's still true that Lao Jiu said. ”
