Volume 1 Chapter 3 Succession (II) Asking for Recommendations
Hong Lie's old face turned red, a little embarrassed to see through, but he glanced at Hong Yu in even more surprise: "Second child...... When did you become so smart?"
Hong Yu secretly scolded himself, almost revealing his stuffing. He smiled bitterly: "Big brother, I wasn't stupid before, okay?"
Hong Lie said kindly, although he felt that the second child was really not smart before, but it was not good to say it to his face, and he was fooled by him like this. Anyone who is a little more shrewd will never be so easily diverted by him.
"Just tell me, which girls are grandpa's favorite, and I'll try to choose from them. ”
Hong Lie was overjoyed, it was great that the second child was willing to cooperate, but he didn't expect that Hong Yu had made up his mind at all, and his brother wanted to be an independent stallion!
"There are mainly the four daughters of the Yu family in the top ten golden beams, Wang Hongyu, the daughter of the Wang family, Si Yonghe, the daughter of the family, and Yang Yiyun, the daughter of the Yang family. ”
Hong Yu had a depressed face on his face, and kept these names in his heart, and he would definitely not choose them when the time came.
Hong Lie looked at his expression and immediately apologized. The gap between these families and the four heavenly pillars of the Hong family is not a little bit, it can be said that if it weren't for Hong Yu's notoriety, no matter which of these women is worthy of Hong Yu, they are all blessings from eight lifetimes of cultivation!
But now, these women are the most haode choice.
Hong Lie felt a little indebted to his second brother, but this was arranged by his grandfather, and he was helpless.
Among these companies, they either have great potential, or have strong financial resources, or have strong external support. In all fairness, Hong Shengri's arrangement is indeed for Hong Yu's consideration, after all, once his grandparents pass away in the future, Hong Yu still has a wife to rely on.
Hong Yu suddenly remembered something, and asked suspiciously: "Yang family, is it the backstage of that four-sea business?"
Hong Lie glanced at him: "You still know?"
Hong Yu's old face turned red, of course he knew that the Four Seas business was the one he used to forcibly occupy other people's property in order to buy forbidden objects. He didn't take the sixteen gold bricks in his eyes at that time, but he didn't expect that among the main people selected, there was actually a daughter of the Yang family.
Hong Lie didn't hide it from him: "The mess you provoked, the old man of the Yang family came to the door in person, and I said all the good things, and the old man Yang relented and told me that the Four Seas Business was the dowry he prepared for his eldest daughter Yang Yiyun! What do you say to let me say? You have usurped the dowry of other people's daughters......
Hong Yu was speechless: "How can this be! Isn't this forcibly stuffing his daughter into me? If his daughter is extremely ugly, then won't my big dream of a beautiful stallion be ruined?"
"What did you say?"
"It's nothing, big brother, you kept saying that you helped me deal with it, so that's how it was handled?
Hong Lie said proudly: "Although we are responsible for this matter, our Hong family is not the kind of person who is forced to marry a daughter-in-law, at most we can only give them a chance." ”
As he spoke, he saw Hong Yu looking at him with strange eyes, and he gradually lost his confidence, from the beginning of his arrogance, gradually getting lower and lower, Zuihou finally blushed his old face: "It's not all you who cause trouble!"
Hong Yu: "......"
Hong Lie suddenly slapped his head: "By the way, there is actually another person to choose, but ...... It's a bit difficult. ”
Hong Yu rolled his eyes: "You just say that it is estimated that other girls don't look down on me." ”
Hong Lie laughed dryly and said: "This time the Xiushan Autumn Meeting, it is said that Li Xiaoxiao, the first talented woman in Lucheng, will also participate, and it is rumored that Li Xiaoxiao is not only amazing and talented in writing, not inferior to my talented son in Daxia, but also beautiful as a flower, known as the first beauty in the southeast of Daxia." ”
Lucheng is the largest city in the southeast of the Great Xia Dynasty, the economy is extremely developed, and the commercial tax of Lucheng accounts for more than 20% of the entire commercial tax of the Great Xia every year.
The Li family is the No. 1 chaebol in Lucheng with strong assets, but it lacks the support of heavyweight officials in the court, so it has been trying to do business in the whole territory of Daxia all these years without success.
Hong Yu muttered in his heart: This Li Xiaoxiao specially entered Beijing, I'm afraid the purpose is not simple.
Hong Lie explained the matter clearly to Hong Yu, and before leaving, he still said a little uneasy: "Second child, in fact, you don't have to be too resistant, everyone has to get married anyway, our kind of background, whether you are a waste or a genius, marriage is not up to anyone." ”
When Hong Lie said this, he was a little depressed, but Hong Yu still saw that the eldest brother's marriage was obviously not satisfactory. He sighed sympathetically in his heart, nodded and said, "Don't worry, big brother, I have it in my heart." ”
......
"What did you tell that little brute?" Hong Shengri's study was very interesting, there were many classics on the bookshelves on the east side, but all the bookshelves on the west side were divine weapons.
On the left side of his desk was an ancient stone tablet, and on the right was a fine piece of armor.
The large desk is made of simple processing of logs, and Hong Shengri has been a horse all his life, and he does not like those objects that are too fine. He sat behind his desk with a majestic face.
Hong Lie said respectfully: "I have already said it, the second brother does not feel too resistant. ”
Hong Shengri snorted coldly: "Really?"
Hong Lie smiled bitterly: "How dare my grandson deceive my grandfather?"
"Have you lied to me less often for that little brute?"
Hong Lie's face turned red and he couldn't speak. Hong Shengri glared at him and waved his big hand: "Order, from now on, until the start of the Xiushan Autumn Festival, Hong Yu can't take half a step out of the Hong Mansion! No matter who visits, the porter will directly block the car and will not be reported!"
Hong Lie was a little worried: "But grandpa, you also know the stubborn temper of the second child, the more you are like this, the more he wants to go out......"
"Don't talk nonsense, just three months, and you must not let him fool around with those fox friends and dog friends again!"
Hong Lie shook his head helplessly and retreated. Hong Shengri's face was grim, and he sat still, waiting for Hong Yu to come and make trouble with him.
......
Hong Yu was originally worried that the fox friends and dog friends in the past would come to harass him for a while, but he waited for Hong Shen to order him to be grounded.
In the past three months, he didn't plan to go out, but to study the novice phase and the primeval demon totem at home. It's just right that no one bothered. So Hong Yu agreed very indifferently: "I know." ”
Hong Shen waited for a while, but he didn't see Hong Yu's further fierce reaction, and he was stunned in surprise. Hong Yu wondered: "What else is there to do with Uncle Shen?"
Hong Shen hurriedly shook his head: "No, no ......"
After coming out, Hong Shen himself shook his head with a wry smile, and he was even a little puzzled in his heart: What is wrong with Young Master Yu?
When the old man Hong Shengri heard Hong Shen's return, he was even more strange: "He just agreed?"
"Yes General!"
Hong Shengri was suspicious for a while, and touched his chin: "No, this little beast must have some conspiracy!"
Hong Shen pouted secretly, not quite agreeing, with Hong Yu's previous IQ, he was only played by conspiracy, how could he play conspiracy?
"Go, keep an eye on that little brute, and don't let him play any tricks. If something goes wrong, Ben Shuai is asking for you!"
"Yes!"
......
Hong Shen received the military order from Hong Shengri, went back to the military library to hand over his duties, and quietly came to the outside of the cross-courtyard where Hong Yu lived.
Although there are many people in the Hong Mansion, it is really easy for a third-rank manifest saint to hide his traces.
He sneaked into the courtyard silently, and suddenly frowned: Why is there no one in the small building!
When he reached the realm of Hong Shen, his spiritual sense was naturally released outside his body, and if he deliberately perceived it, thirty zhang would be unexpected, and an ant under the soil would not be able to escape his spiritual sense if he moved his legs.
So he walked all the way, without having to look, he knew exactly how many people were in the surrounding houses. After entering the courtyard, he naturally subconsciously sensed his mission goal, but the three-story wooden building where Hong Yu lived was empty!
Hong Shen was very sure that Hong Yu couldn't play any tricks just now, but he didn't expect to find that Hong Yu was missing as soon as he entered the courtyard, which was not trivial. He appeared on the third floor of the small building in a flash, and was about to break in but suddenly stopped.
He saw through the window that Hong Yu was lying on the bed, sleeping very peacefully.
Hong Shen stood at the window like a ghost, looking at Hong Yu on the bed, his eyebrows locked deeply.
The moment he saw Hong Yu, Hong Yu's breath immediately appeared in his perception. But how could this be? He was very sure that he would not be mistaken, when he first entered the small courtyard, he obviously couldn't detect Hong Yu's breath?
Could it be that there is something wrong with your own exercises?
Hong Yu is a kind of person, it is impossible to escape his spiritual sense. Then there is only one possibility, that is, your exercises are not perfect, and there are loopholes hidden in them that you don't know about!
Hong Shen Khan is raining down, but now he has no time to reflect on his exercises, he has a military order, and he must take care of Hong Yu.
He sighed and sat down cross-legged in a corner of the courtyard. A few clumps of green bamboos blocked his figure, and with the strength of the three-rank saint, even if someone passed by him at this time, he would not notice that there was still a person sitting here.
After sitting cross-legged, Hong Shen thought about it, and for a safe purpose, he released his spiritual sense for thirty zhang and shrouded the entire courtyard.
In this small courtyard, there are only Hong Yu and Hong Shen now, and the people are hiding far away.
Tonight, the starlight was vast, Hong Shen sat for a while, and then began to run his own exercises. His "Starfire Divine Furnace" mental method is cultivated by starlight, and every starlight night is extremely precious to him.
Fortunately, while cultivating, he can also release his spiritual sense and monitor Hong Yu's every move.
The mental method worked, and he transformed the starry sky into a trace of pale golden energy, which was inhaled from the pores of his body and then transformed into pure martial energy.
