son-in-law

Chapter 23 Su Tang
On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, it is time to hold the lanterns.

Before the first lunar month, you can still feel some New Year's flavor in the small streets.Newly posted Spring Festival couplets can be seen everywhere, high-hanging red lanterns, brand-new door gods with the word blessing, and some of the children put on new clothes.From time to time, one or two firecrackers can be heard. It must be some naughty child who threw the firecrackers picked up during the New Year into the street.

Children from poor families couldn't afford that thing, so they would go to the gates of high-ranking families and pick up some fragments of firecrackers that failed to ignite.Take it home, hold incense in one hand, and light firecrackers in the other.The cannon letter was very short, and it rang almost as soon as he left his hand.I remember doing this myself when I was a kid.He was also scolded by his father who "always makes a fuss".

Su Changsheng cared about Su Yu very much, far more than he cared about his daughters.Everyone said that Su Changsheng's patriarchy was the most typical.It gave the impression that he didn't care even if his daughter fell into the frying pan, but if his son suffered a little bit of grievance, he would be furious.

In the middle of the small street outside Xifu, a restaurant is very lively, and the sound of punching and ordering can be heard from the second floor from a long way away.

The shopkeeper of the Chen Family Restaurant was sitting alone on the first floor, while the door on the second floor was closed, and he was not allowed to go up.He also took a break.The errand of the boy's shop sat on the threshold bored, with his arms folded on his knees, and his head drooped to take a nap.It was not long before the head finally rested on the arms, and it looked as if he had fallen asleep.

Xiao Huan was also sleepy like the waiter in the shop. Su Yu didn't let her go up to the second floor, but Su Yu still took good care of the maid, and specially ordered a plate of meat for the maid. The little maid was more likely to sleep when she was full. up.

The eldest grandson Tang Qi jumped out of the window on the second floor. He had been away for a while, and Su Yu had already had a full meal.Watching this group of five big and three rough followers punching and ordering.

Su Yu felt a little anxious. The swordsman hiding in Fuji's warehouse must be cold and hungry at this time.But he couldn't respond right away.Thinking about it, the swordsman named Zhang Xiaodao was injured because he saved Su Yu, so Su Yu couldn't bear it even more.

It's really inappropriate to wait any longer, Su Yu deliberately knocked over the wine glass, soaked his sleeves, washed his hands under excuses, left the second floor, and went downstairs.Xiao Huan wanted to follow, but was persuaded by Su Yu, only saying that it was convenient to go.Xiao Huan refused, so Su Yu went out with a sword, and Xiao Huan reluctantly agreed.

Avoiding Xiao Huan's gaze, Su Yu gave the shopkeeper a look.Then Su Yu walked towards the backyard, followed by the shopkeeper.

Su Yu said in a low voice: "Kong Xiaolin said that he can be found by looking for you."

The shopkeeper hesitated for a while, then said in a low voice, "Mayor Jun, where did the sword in your hand come from?"

Su Yu smiled and said: "It seems that you are the master hiding outside the princess's mansion. I think Kong Xiaolin has told you that I picked up this sword. But you don't seem to believe this statement. Then you think , How did this sword get into my hand?"

The shopkeeper suddenly raised his head: "Master Jun Ma, can I take a step to speak?"

"You lead the way."

There is also a small room in the backyard of the restaurant, which looks like a small warehouse for storing groceries.The shopkeeper walked in first, motioning for Su Yu to come in.Su Yu looked around, didn't hesitate too long, and followed in.There is only a slanting ray of moonlight coming in from the small barn, making the room even smaller.

The door was closed by the shopkeeper: "Master Jun Ma, I have offended you!"

While speaking, the shopkeeper punched out, but before the fist arrived, a strong wind hit.

"Boom!" Under the beam of moonlight, one hand grabbed the shopkeeper's fist.

"'Big Thunderbolt Hand' Chen Qianfu's 'Fu Hu Fist' is not what you use." While speaking, Su Yu counterattacked with a backhand punch, hitting the shopkeeper's shoulder heavily. There was a "bang".Su Yu retracted his fist and put his hands behind his back: "It's like this."

The shopkeeper threw up his robe and fell to his knees: "Li Xun, Xiaoqi of Kongziying, pay homage to the leader!"

"I am not your leader."

"The Keluoying sword is in your hands."

Su Yu stretched out his hand to help Li Xun up, and said, "When Senior Sister Yan gave me the sword, she said that the Red and Black God Sect had been disbanded. This sword no longer has any meaning."

Li Xun asked suspiciously: "You call Yan Jiaozhu your senior sister? If I remember correctly, Yan Jiaozhu doesn't have any juniors."

"I am not Chen Qianfen's own apprentice, but Senior Sister Yan's."

"Oh I got it."

"I came to you this time not to arrange tasks for you, but to discuss cooperation with you. I hope to use your connections to do some business. Now the Liang Dynasty has extremely strict control over coins, and there is a lot of black gold on the killer road after the war They need to move around. They have no place to launder money, or they can’t find a credible strong backer to launder money. If anyone can help them turn around, they will definitely be able to extract great benefits. I have known this for a long time, but at that time I don’t have the strength to do this either. But it’s different now, I’m the boss of Dongdacang, a clan of the Tang clan. The black gold flows through the warehouse of the clan of the Tang clan, let alone Luobei Fuguo County, it’s Jingzhao Prefecture, Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate also dare not come to investigate."

Li Xun said: "Master Jun Ma, are you so bold?"

"Bold?" Su Yu smiled wryly: "I'm afraid you still don't know how much the Tang family is short of money. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. But in my opinion, this camel I'm really going to lose weight. As long as I can make money now, Tang Zhen will never refuse."

Li Xun said: "It is said that Miss Fifteen is in charge of the East Mansion's property."

Su Yu said in a deep voice: "A miss is a miss after all, and the real boss is Tang Zhen."

"Subordinates understand." Li Xun thought for a while: "Not to mention, the subordinates can really contact a few people. They made war fortunes and held a lot of black gold, but I don't know if they have passed it now. If not, The subordinates will contact them. I just don’t know how to contact the Junma Lord after the contact is made?”

"You don't need to hide, just go to Da Cang to find me."

"Understood." After a pause, Li Xun said again: "I don't know where the Yan leader is now?"

"She..." Su Yu squeezed his fingers: "I don't know either. But I just met her today, and she told me, let me give this sword away."

"Give someone away?!"

"The Luoying Sword used to be a sacrifice of the Red and Black God Sect. I can't bear to give it to outsiders. Since you still have the God Sect in your heart, I think it's better to give this sword to you."

"Send me?!" Li Xun was shocked, and knelt down again: "You are the younger brother of Yan Jiaozhu, and you are a Dharma protector of the Red Black God Sect. Now Yan Jiaozhu is so angry that he said the words of disbanding the God Cult. In the hearts of our congregation, the Sect will never perish. As long as the Yan leader is still alive, we will regard her as the leader, and you are our guardian. If the leader does not want to carry the Luoying sword, the guardian will carry it. It's reasonable. I also ask Su Tang not to refuse. Su Tang's martial arts has already been taught, and he will never disgrace the name of Dharma protector. He should bear this heavy responsibility.
