Liaozhai: A scholar should draw a sword

Chapter 140

"Uuuuuuu..."

Luo Xiaoling had something stuffed in her mouth, unable to speak, she could only shake her head desperately and struggle.

Zhou Xilin smiled triumphantly: "Don't blame me, you should know that you are acquiesced by your parents.

After the matter is completed, I will not lose you, and I will definitely marry you in a glorious way...

Well, carry her to the back room for me, and then you two will guard the door. "

"Yes, Master!"

The two subordinates responded, and pulled Luo Xiaoling out of the sack, and were about to carry her into the house.

"boom!"

There was a loud bang, which startled the three of them.

Looking up, the courtyard door was actually kicked open by life.

"Beasts, they actually rob people's daughters in broad daylight. There is no king's law?"

The person who came was none other than Zhang Bold.

He peeked outside the door for a while, and he had already roughly understood what happened. His mind became hot, and he kicked the courtyard door open as soon as he raised his leg.

Of course, although he is righteous and impulsive, he is not stupid.

Although Zhou Xilin was Lord Hou's own nephew, Lord Hou didn't like the three nephews in his family.

At least on this matter, Zhang boldly believed that Lord Hou would never protect Zhou Xilin.

Zhou Xilin saw who was coming, and couldn't help being furious: "You are so bold, are you brave enough to eat a leopard? How dare you kick the gate of my young master's courtyard."

"Master Zhou, as long as you let this girl go, the villain is willing to kowtow to you, admit your mistake, and repair the courtyard gate."

"Hahaha, who do you think you are?" Zhou Xilin couldn't help laughing angrily, and then shouted: "What are you doing in a daze? Take him down!"

"Yes, Master!"

The two subordinates rushed up with a murderous look.

"Master Zhou, I advise you not to make the same mistake again and again." Zhang Boldly shouted while hiding.

"Hit me to death!"

Zhou Xilin was even more ashamed and angry.

Hearing this, the two subordinates worked even harder.

Zhang boldly dodged a few times, received two punches, and finally couldn't help but started to fight back.

As soon as he fought back, the two guys couldn't stand it anymore, and they were quickly knocked down to the ground, groaning in pain.

Seeing Zhang Bold walking step by step with his fists clenched, Zhou Xilin was finally frightened, his face turned pale and retreated step by step: "Zhang Bold, I warn you, if you dare to touch even a single hair of this young master, this young master..."

Speaking of this, I felt that the deterrence was not enough, so I changed my words: "My second uncle will definitely not let you go."

"Bah, you still have the nerve to mention Master Hou? Master Hou has always been benevolent. If he knew you did such a thing, he wouldn't beat you to death."

After speaking, Zhang boldly knelt down and untied the rope tied around Luo Xiaoling's hands, and pulled out the cloth stuffed in her mouth.

"Wow……"

Luo Xiaoling burst into tears immediately, and then passed out again.

"Zhang Daudao, you...you insist on going against this young master, don't you?"

At this time, Zhou Xilin was obviously a bit aggressive, because what Zhang Boldly said just now made him a little guilty.

If the second uncle knew that he had robbed the women, he would not let him off lightly.On this point, he still has some ideas in his heart.

"Master Zhou, I don't dare to go against you, I just don't want to watch this girl being ruined by you."

"Nonsense, what do you know? Her parents agreed, how can it be called robbery?"

"At least what I saw with my own eyes, this girl is not willing to..."

Zhou Xilin looked annoyed: "Stop talking nonsense and tell me how much money you want."

"I'm sorry, although the young one is poor, he is not an insatiable person."

After finishing speaking, Zhang boldly carried Luo Xiaoling on his back, and strode towards the gate of the courtyard.

"Zhang Bold, stand still! 20 taels, I'll give you 20 taels of silver."

Zhang boldly said nothing, and strode towards the door.

"30 taels..."

Zhang Bold has already walked to the gate of the courtyard.

Zhou Xilin gritted his teeth: "50 taels!"

Zhang Bold finally stopped.

Seeing this, Zhou Xilin finally heaved a sigh of relief, secretly proud in his heart, it really is that money can turn ghosts around.

50 taels of silver is undoubtedly a huge sum of money for an ordinary person, and it can buy several houses in Guobei County.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Boldly said: "Zhou Shaolin, don't waste your efforts in vain, let alone 50 taels, 500 taels are useless..."

After speaking, he strode away.

"Quick, stop him!"

Zhou Xilin became anxious and stepped forward to kick two of his subordinates.

"Oh……"

The two subordinates struggled to get up and walked out of the courtyard, pretending to chase after Zhang Bold, but their steps were rather slow.

They were scared of being beaten, how dare they really catch up?

Let's say that Zhang boldly walked out of the alley and carried Luo Xiaoling to a nearby pharmacy.

The doctor stepped forward to look, pinched the person, Luo Xiaoling finally woke up...

When he woke up, he was sobbing and crying, while thanking Zhang Boldly.

After she calmed down for a while, Zhang Boldly carried out her good deed to the end, and escorted her home to avoid being captured by Zhou Xilin on the way.

As soon as I entered the hospital, I saw a woman about 25 years old hurried forward.

"sister……"

Luo Xiaoling plunged into her sister's arms, crying heartbrokenly.

"Okay sister, don't cry, it's okay..."

While comforting her sister, Luo Xiaojuan glanced at Zhang Boldly in doubt.

Zhang Boldly explained: "Your sister was kidnapped. Fortunately, I found out that something was wrong, so I rushed into the yard and rescued her."

Luo Xiaojuan was taken aback: "Ah? Who is so bold?"

"Zhou Xilin!"

"It turned out to be him, damn it..."

"Sister, I don't want to live anymore, I'm ashamed to face people, woo woo woo..."

Zhang Bold was taken aback, and quickly persuaded: "Hey, Miss Xiaoling, you must not do stupid things..."

"Yes, sister, fortunately this elder brother saved you in time. By the way, I don't know how to call this elder brother?"

Zhang Bold scratched his head in embarrassment: "My surname is Zhang, and everyone calls me Zhang Bold."

"So it's Brother Zhang. I'm Xiaoling's older sister. You can call me Xiaojuan."

"So it's Miss Xiaojuan..."

Luo Xiaojuan smiled self-deprecatingly: "Brother Zhang, what kind of girl am I? It's been a long time ago...Look at me, busy talking, Brother Zhang, come in and sit down, I'll pour you a glass of water."

"it's okay no problem……"

"Brother Zhang, you're welcome, you can be regarded as Xiaoling's savior. If Xiaoling really... With her personality, I'm afraid she will really do extreme things."

After a few words of politeness, Zhang Bold went to the main room and sat down.

Luo Xiaojuan made a cup and put it on the table, then asked with some concern: "Brother Zhang, you rescued Xiaoling, and Master Zhou must have held a grudge that day, so you must be careful."

"It's okay, I'm a bachelor, what am I afraid of him doing? At worst, I will risk my life."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xiaojuan was stunned for a moment, and asked casually, "Brother Zhang didn't get married?"

"Oh, it's hard to describe!" Zhang Boldly sighed, "I was married before, but something happened later...they went their separate ways."

"So it's like this... It's similar to me, except that my dead ghost will never be seen again."

Hearing this, Zhang Bold couldn't help but feel his heart move.

Never to see again, the implication must be that her husband is dead.

Before, he was only focused on saving people, but now he has calmed down, and suddenly remembered the marriage that Mother Fox said.

Could it be that the marriage Hu Niang mentioned refers to Luo Xiaojuan?

With such a thought in mind, Zhang Bold couldn't help but take a closer look at Luo Xiaojuan, she had a gentle appearance and a pleasant voice.

It must be a happy thing if he can really marry her as his wife.

"Brother Zhang, are you... Is my face dirty?"

Seeing Zhang Boldly staring at her, Luo Xiaojuan blushed a little, lowered her head, and subconsciously wiped her face.

The shy look made Zhang Bold's heart skip a beat, and he quickly waved his hands: "No, it's just... just a pity for you."

"Oh, maybe this is fate."

To be on the safe side, Zhang boldly asked tentatively: "You look young, so you can't just be single forever, right?"

"Then what can I do? There is no suitable one..."

Zhang Bold's brain became hot, and he blurted out: "What do you think of me?"

"what?"

Luo Xiaojuan was stunned, because she really didn't expect Zhang Bold to be so direct.

Afterwards, he seemed a little ashamed and dissatisfied: "Brother Zhang is making fun of me?"

Zhang boldly blushed, and quickly waved his hands: "No, no, I really didn't... I... I... I'm sorry, I was too abrupt, please don't take offense, Miss Xiaojuan."

His simple and honest appearance made Luo Xiaojuan quite fond of him.

"Brother Zhang, I know you are a good person, otherwise you would not have saved my sister for nothing.

It's just...it's just that it was too sudden, I was completely unprepared, so...so please don't be offended, Brother Zhang. "

"It's okay, it's okay, I have no other intentions, I... I have nothing to do, I'll go back first."

After speaking, Zhang boldly stood up and said goodbye.

When he thought about it, Luo Xiaojuan's answer was a polite refusal.That being the case, he couldn't be thick-skinned and threaten her by saving her sister, right?
"Brother Zhang..."

"Huh? Miss Xiaojuan, what's the matter?"

"I..." Luo Xiaojuan curled her face and twisted her fingers: "I...Actually, I have a pretty good impression of Big Brother Zhang....

I'm in a hurry today, and I have to go to appease my sister, so... that... I wonder if Big Brother Zhang is free at noon tomorrow?

If you're free, you might as well come over and have a seat, I'll prepare some food and drink, right as..."

"Free, free!"

Before Luo Xiaojuan could finish speaking, Zhang Boldly responded with joy on his face.

"Then...then it's settled."

"It's a deal, it's a deal, then I'll go first, and you can comfort your sister."

"Yeah, thank you, Brother Zhang."

"It should be..."

Zhang boldly left the small courtyard beaming.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned to the Zhou Mansion, he saw Ah Zhu rushing forward: "Brother Zhang, you have caused trouble..."

"Get into trouble?" Zhang Boldly was taken aback.

"That's right, that Young Master Zhou Xilin and his father came together to file a complaint, saying that you beat Young Master Zhou, Lord Hou is sending someone to look for you."

"I beat Master Zhou?"

Zhang boldly looked surprised.He did make a move, but he hit those two servants, but he never made a move on Zhou Xilin. Could it be that the villain complained first?

Indeed, this is why Zhou Xilin made a complaint first.

It can also be said to be smart.

If he stopped worrying about this matter, Zhang Bold would not be able to take the initiative to go to Zhou Yu to complain.

The problem was that Zhou Xilin was guilty of being a villain, afraid that Zhang would sue him boldly, so he would not stop doing it, and ruthlessly mutilated himself, hurting his forehead, and then complained to his father first, saying that the servants of his second uncle's family beat him.

Then, the father and son came to discuss the Fa together.

Zhou Yu didn't know what happened, so he naturally asked Zhang Bold to find out.

Not long after, Zhang Bold came to the front hall.

Seeing him appear, Zhou Xilin's father scolded immediately: "What a slave, how dare you beat my son?"

Zhang Boldly said angrily: "Hou Ye Mingjian, the villain has never beaten Young Master Zhou."

"What did you say? How dare you argue? What happened to the injury on the young master's forehead? Could it be that I broke it myself when I was full?"

"Who knows..."

"you……"

Zhou Yu frowned, and said softly, "What are you fighting for?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhou Xilin and his son stopped talking immediately.

"Boldly, tell me what happened."

"Yes, Lord Hou. The villain accidentally found someone carrying a sack in the north of the city today. He was suspicious for a moment, so he quietly followed..."

Zhang Boldly explained what happened in detail.

"At that time, Young Master Zhou refused to let the little one save people, and even ordered his subordinates to do it, but the little one was forced to fight back.

However, the little one can swear to God that he never hit Master Zhou.

Young Master Zhou also wanted to buy the little one with money, and he said he would give the little one 50 taels of silver, so that the little one would not interfere in his affairs..."

"You spitting blood, Luo Xiaoling's parents agreed to me marrying her long ago, I just asked someone to bring her over to discuss it..."

"shut up!"

Zhou Yu shouted angrily, and Zhou Xilin quickly stopped talking in fright.

"You said her father had agreed to it a long time ago, so why didn't he offer a betrothal gift?"

"This...because...because of Luo Xiaoling...she hasn't agreed yet, so my nephew wants to have a good talk with her..."

"Talk about it? Why don't you talk about it above and above? You want to use sacks to kidnap people and take them to a secluded yard?"

"This... my nephew is mainly... mainly..."

At this time, Zhou Xilin's father saw that his son was overwhelmed, and said in time: "Second brother, Xilin's actions may be inappropriate. But no matter what, it's not the turn of a servant to take care of him.

Moreover, this piece of boldness is really too arrogant, it dares to beat Xilin, it is simply lawless! "

Zhou Yu said coldly: "It's your son who is lawless, right?"

"you……"

"It's obvious that your son robbed the civilian girl, even if Zhang Bold really beat him, he deserved it!
Don't blame me for not warning you, in the future, if you dare to do something harmful to the world, don't blame me for being ruthless, denying my relatives, and seeing off guests! "

"Yes!"

Zhou Xilin still wanted to quibble: "Second Uncle, I..."

Zhou Yu yelled angrily: "Get out, don't step into the Hou Mansion again!"

This roar scared the father and son into fear, how dare they stay for a moment longer?Hurry up and leave.

This can't be blamed on Zhou Yu's ruthlessness. He took over the identity of the original owner, and he should take care of his clansmen out of reason.

The problem is that these clan brothers and nephews have no family ties at all. As soon as the original owner lay in the coffin, the three nephews rushed to fight for the family property.

Not to mention, this week Xilin actually did such a disgraceful thing, how could Zhou Yu protect him?

Fortunately, Zhang Bold rescued the person in time. If someone died, Zhou Xilin might not have a good life.

After Zhou Xilin and his son left, Zhang Bold couldn't help but muttered: "Master Hou, I'm sorry, little one..."

"Hehe, what are you saying I'm sorry? You did a good job in this matter, and you will be rewarded with ten taels of silver."

Zhang Bold was overwhelmed with surprise, and thanked repeatedly: "Thank you, Lord Hou, thank you, Lord Hou, for the reward."

"Besides, go and inquire secretly. If Zhou Xilin dares to mess around and go to that girl's house to make trouble, the Marquis will never let her go lightly!"

"Yes, Lord Hou!"

In the morning of the next day, Zhang Boldly changed into new clothes and went to the street to buy some gifts. Then he went to Luo's house with a happy face...
