Chapter 8: As the Deputy Gang Leader (II)

On the way back, everyone talked and laughed on the surface, but they all secretly had something in their hearts, especially Tong Lanshan and Lin Huihui, who were like a pair of sisters when they laughed, but they all wanted to strangle each other in their hearts. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info had nothing to do all the way, and after going up the mountain, they went back to the village to rest, and met to eat and drink in the Juyi Hall at night. Zhu Zhirui didn't want to participate, but Lei Zhen insisted on inviting her to join her, saying that the bride-to-be could not be absent, and she had to go.

Zhu Yushi and Zhu Zhirui returned to the small courtyard of Takishui Town, at this time it was almost late autumn, the leaves were withered and yellow, and the wind swept the residual leaves along the way, and the mountain road was paved with thick and soft fallen leaves, but their small courtyard was very clean, and a teenager was cleaning in the courtyard, it was Zhuo Chong, who saw the two of them hurriedly greeted him, and said: "The father-in-law and Miss Zhu are back, can the journey be smooth?" Every time he calls himself an elder in front of him, Zhu Yushi always feels that he takes advantage of him, but he can only pretend to be old-fashioned and say: "Everything is fine, can my son concentrate on practicing martial arts?" Zhuo Chong said happily: "Yes, the child practices every day, and he doesn't dare to slack off in the slightest." Zhu Yushi said with a smile: "That's good, in the future, you just need to learn martial arts diligently, and you don't have to do this kind of cleaning the yard." Zhuo Chong said: "The child only wants to honor his father-in-law, and he will not delay his practice." Zhu Yushi said: "Show me your newly learned kung fu." Zhuo Chongxi said: "Yes, the child has practiced the twenty styles in "Yiquan", please ask your father-in-law for guidance." Zhu Yushi carefully watched him practice martial arts, and after the fight, he said: "It is rare to be able to learn three percent by yourself in two months, and what you owe is only proficiency and heat, such as the trick 'Hades Kick', you will concentrate your whole body on that leg, if you miss a blow, it will be difficult to generate new energy, and it is easy to be seized by the opponent. Zhuo Chong suddenly said: "The child understands." "After that, I used the 'Hades Kick' again, and it really improved a lot. Zhu Yushi corrected three other tricks, and when he saw that it was already dark, he said: "That's it for today, change your clothes and go to the Juyi Hall with us for a banquet." Zhuo Chong bowed and said, "Yes." ”

The three of them came all the way to the main altar of Dazhai, the village is full of lights, red paintings, jubilant, the soldiers are also wearing new clothes, waist red belt, Tong Lanshan really put a lot of effort, at least in the eyes of others she is a virtuous wife, the weak party, busy in and out for her husband to marry a new love. Xiong Bushu was out to welcome the guests, and the guests invited this time were not only the hall master, but also many small leaders, and for a while, there was a lot of noise outside the Juyi Hall, and everyone greeted each other. Xiong Bushu saw Zhu Yushi and the three of them, and hurriedly stepped forward to congratulate him: "Congratulations, the two of you have finally achieved positive results, congratulations." The wedding of the two will be organized by the next, and the day after tomorrow will be the auspicious day of the zodiac, and the marriage can be completed. He always had a warm smile on his face, as if nothing unpleasant had ever happened. Zhu Yushi is also quite a city government now, and said with a smile.

Shi Tong's master and apprentice also appeared in the crowd, Shi Tong's expression was still gloomy and cold, exuding a vicious aura, like a plague god, no one dared to stand in his place, and he didn't even glance at Zhu Yushi from the corner of his eye. Zhu Yu knew that he was going to deliberately show hostility towards himself. Since I knew about the fetish between Lei Zhen and the Qin brothers, I felt very uncomfortable when I saw them now, I used to wonder why the Qin brothers were always hostile to themselves, but now I think about it, maybe they saw that Lei Zhen was too good to them, and they were jealous, and they got goosebumps when they thought of this.

Zhuo Xinghai squeezed through the crowd and said with a smile: "I heard that Brother Fu has shown his might in the Western Regions, and even Liu Shaoqing of Shenjian Villa can't help you, and he also killed the assassin who assassinated the King of Qi in Luoyang, Brother Fool is really happy for you." Zhu Yushi said: "If it weren't for the help of the Lei Gang Master, I'm afraid I wouldn't have come back." Zhuo Chong bowed and saluted, "Father." Zhuo Xinghai nodded and said, "If the dog doesn't obey the discipline, Brother Fu will beat him." Having Brother Fu as his stepfather is a blessing he cultivated in his previous life. Zhu Yushi smiled bitterly in his heart and said: "Chong'er is diligent and studious, he is a good boy, and Brother Zhuo is a good blessing." Zhuo Xinghai suddenly lowered his voice and said: "When I asked the helper to say goodbye just now, the helper asked me if I would be convinced if I would let you be the deputy helper, and I replied that I was absolutely convinced, it seems that the helper has the intention of promoting you." Zhu Yushi remembered that Shi Tong had said that Lei Zhen had a special "good impression" of him, and he couldn't help but feel creepy, and reluctantly smiled: "I just want to assist Brother Zhuo in taking care of Huangxingtang, and it is enough for the deputy hall master to have a wife." Zhuo Xinghai said with a smile: "Whether it is enough or not is up to the helper, huh? He is also here." ”

Zhu Yushi turned his head to look, only to see a pair of resentful eyes flashing in an inconspicuous dark corner, that person was obscene, short in stature, with one leg lame, standing on the trunk of a tree, it was Tong Zijian, presumably he also learned the news that he was going to marry Zhu Zhirui, so he hated himself even more.

The banquet dishes are very rich, those little leaders are all a large number of cattle drinks, the atmosphere is noisy and intense, the sound of changing cups, guessing the boxing order, loud laughter and scolding one after another, many people know that Zhu Yushi is the celebrity in front of Lei Zhen, and they have come to toast him in advance, and Ling Xudu is also among them. Shi Tong's table was the quietest, and no one dared to disturb him. Tong Zijian drank sullen wine alone, and from time to time he cast a loving and hateful look at Zhu Zhirui, who was so disgusted with him that she completely ignored his existence. Since he was lame, Tong Lanshan didn't want to see him, just for him to eat and drink, his fox friends and dogs saw the wind and steered, and no longer flattered him, although he was also the deputy hall master of Huang Xingtang, his status was really different from Zhu Yushi, Zhu Yushi had the right to command Huang Xingtang's army, and he was just in vain.

Tong Lanshan and Lin Huihui sat on Lei Zhen's left and right, the two women seemed to get along well, bowing their heads from time to time and whispering, covering their mouths and sneering, and pouring wine for Lei Zhen alternately, but only they knew how many scheming cities were hidden behind the laughter.

At this time, Lei Zhen suddenly clapped his hands, and the hall slowly quieted down, and he got up and said: "Today, the heroes are rising together, although the power of our horse gang is not strong, but it has great potential, and now it has newly acquired land and towns within a radius of two hundred miles, the situation is very good, and you need to work hard to carry forward our gang." The crowd applauded together, and after the applause stopped, Lei Zhen continued: "There are so many towns at once, and only one deputy gang leader is afraid that he can't manage it, I intend to promote another brother with both ability and political integrity as the deputy gang leader, do you have any good candidates?"

Tong Lanshan's face changed suddenly, she could tolerate other women sharing her husband, but she couldn't stand others sharing her rights, she said expressionlessly: "The new deputy gang leader is such a big matter, why didn't the gang leader discuss it with the big guy in advance." Lei Zhen said: "Isn't it being discussed now?" Zhu Zhirui said: "The slave family is saying that there is no need to set up another deputy gang leader." Lei Zhen said: "Do you think it's unnecessary?" Zhu Zhirui said: "It's not necessary at all, the slave family is enough for one person." Lei Zhen smiled with a complicated expression, and said: "But don't forget that you are a woman after all, and if you have children in the future, where will you have the energy to take care of the affairs of the gang, and it is also for your sake to find someone to share your worries." Zhu Zhirui's cheeks turned red, thinking that you never have sex with me, where to have children, but I couldn't find a suitable reason to refute, so I had to say: "If the helper really wants to set up another deputy helper, the slave family recommends the Xiong Tang master, he starts a business with us, the oldest qualified, and the most familiar with the things in the gang, and only he is the deputy helper." ”

Lei Zhen nodded and said, "There is a candidate, who has any other proposals?" Lao Meng and Lao Tao also immediately chimed in: "We also propose the Master of the Xiong Hall, he is a man who values righteousness, and the brothers admire him very much." Lei Zhen smiled and said, "Got it, is there anything else?" and then a few more people mentioned Xiong Bushu and Shi Tong. Xiong Bu's eyes lit up, and he frequently thanked the person who proposed him, and said, "Thank you brothers for lifting up." ”

Shi Tongze's face was expressionless, as if it was none of his business. Lei Zhen glanced at Zhuo Xinghai intentionally or unintentionally, and asked, "Do you have any other proposals?" Zhuo Xinghai understood, got up and said: "There is a different candidate below, although he joined the gang late, he is famous, and everyone in Luoyang City knows his name, he fights for righteousness and helps the weak, and he doesn't care about himself, even if he is his enemy, he can't help but praise 'good man'." After he went up to the mountain, his character and martial arts were all superior, and his training of the army was also quite effective, eliminating unhealthy tendencies, greatly improving military discipline, and enjoying considerable prestige among the soldiers. He also went to the Western Regions with the gang leader, and made many great contributions, so that outsiders did not dare to underestimate my gang, and proposed Fu Chou brothers. ”

After Zhuo Xinghai finished speaking, there was silence in the back hall, and Tong Zijian suddenly said: "I'm against it!" Lei Zhen said: "What is the reason? Don't say anything about personal grudges." Tong Zijian said: "He has been on the mountain for less than half a year, how can his qualifications and prestige be comparable to the master of the Xiong Hall, and letting him be the deputy hall master is already promoting him, and can he be the deputy gang leader again?" Lei Zhen said lightly: "We chose the deputy gang leader, not who is older than anyone's qualifications." The position of deputy gang leader is occupied by capable people, this is my selection criteria. ”

Everyone has seen that Lei Zhen is biased towards Fu Chou, and if he puts forward a different opinion, he is afraid that he will offend Lei Zhen. Who knew that Lei Zhen said: "Shi Tang Master's martial arts are the first in the gang, he is cold and selfless, everyone is in awe, he is the right person for the deputy gang leader, I don't know if the Shi Tang Master is willing to take up this position?" This decision was completely unexpected by everyone, Shi Tong's qualifications are not inferior to Xiong Buju, and his martial arts are even farther above it, and it is not good to say anything if Xiong does not hurt the party even if he is the deputy gang leader. Shi Tong owed a debt and said: "Thank you for the helper's appreciation, but he is not the first in the gang in martial arts, and now he feels hard to be the hall master, and he has no confidence to serve as the deputy helper, and he also asks the helper to take back his life." ”

Lei Zhen said: "The master of the stone hall is too modest, you are already the most suitable person, please don't shirk." Shi Daodao: "The gang leader is looking for 'Han Xin' who can expand the territory of the gang, and the old man can only be 'Bao Zheng', not the best choice." Lei Zhen nodded and said, "Since it is Bao Zheng, please help me decide who is the most suitable person besides you." Shi Channel: "The qualifications and connections of the master of the Xiong Hall, the young talents of the master of the Fu Hall, although both are important, but the old man thinks that if our gang wants to be among the overlords and dominate the side, it must innovate and change, and whoever can lead our gang to change its face and open up a new path is the right candidate." ”

Lei Zhen praised: "What I said is that Brother Fu is more innovative than the Master of the Xiong Hall, and Brother Fu's reform methods can be seen just from the changes in Huang Xingtang. I have made up my mind, from today Fu Chou will be the new deputy gang leader, sitting in the third position, if anyone makes disrespectful remarks to Brother Fu again, he will be punished with Article 20 of the gang rules, 'no helper'.
