my wife is a consul

Chapter 225 Rules

In the convertible jeep, Heitou drives, while Uncle Sun sits behind and drives.

In the back row are Lu Ming and He Mojun, with Yaya sitting in the middle.

Following the jeep was a sidecar motorcycle, on which Leifeng, Heifeng and Zhao students rode.

Lu Ming specially brought the magic poker from Pirlo, and made magic tricks for Yaya, which made Yaya laugh all the way.

It took more than 70 miles from Sansha Town to Jingyang Town. The dirt road was very bumpy and the car couldn't drive fast. It took nearly an hour to arrive.

Jingyang Town is a small town at the foot of the mountain. In the distance, there are deep mountains and dense forests.

The Guo family mansion has three layers of courtyards, the courtyard is deep, and the house of an old-fashioned squire is completely different from that of an upstart like Brigadier Hu.

But it's like a pot is boiling inside, it's too lively.

The second son of the Guo family, Guo Youxi and his wife, were quarreling loudly. A high-pitched female voice pierced people's eardrums repeatedly, and they could hear clearly outside the courtyard. It was probably Guo Youxi's wife, who was cursing at her brother. Guo Youdong's family, who ran away with money privately, even blamed his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and directly blamed his parents-in-law for being "foolish".

"Let's go to my parents first!" He Mojun felt helpless.

"Ah, I came here empty-handed." Lu Ming just remembered that when He Mojun told the story, he also brought his parents here. She is an only child, so it is very convenient to pick up her parents.

"It's okay, just don't write the check."

Lu Ming smiled, but in fact, this sister-in-law hasn't changed much, she is still so sharp-toothed.

There is a grocery store in the town, and Lu Ming went to buy four-color gifts, which are dim sum, two bottles of liquor, a pack of candy and a few packs of cigarettes. However, the dim sum seems to be made by someone in the town, and liquor is also a trademark. No, the candies can be seen to be out of date, some of the candies are collapsed, and the cigarettes are not in strips, they are tied together with hemp rope.

This is already the best gift I have chosen, and I spent a total of 5 cents.

In Donghai, the four-color gift for 5 cents is much more decent than this. The inconvenient transportation and lack of supplies make the prices of non-essential consumer goods even higher in areas with extremely low income.

Holding the four-color dim sum, Lu Ming could only shake his head.

He Mojun's parents live in a small courtyard not far from Guo's mansion, with brick walls and tiled houses, which are quite conspicuous in the small town.

Seeing Lu Ming, He's father and mother were ashamed, addressing them as "Third Young Masters", complaining repeatedly about their daughter's failure to live up to expectations, being ashamed of the Lu family, and being ashamed of the lintel.

He Mojun hid for a long time. She seemed to know what her parents would say when they saw Lu Ming. Moreover, the Guo family was in a mess, so she naturally wanted to go back and have a look.

Lu Ming has no impression of He's father and mother at all, but the old couple recognized him at the first sight, and now they are more like two sinners, and they may even wonder why their daughter brought her uncle over here. someone else?
Lu Ming was even more helpless. Seeing Yaya looking at him eagerly, he took out the playing cards again, and Yaya cheered immediately.

On the way, Liu Jingtang came over and reported the situation of receiving the coal mine.

He was scolded bloody by his old friends, and even had his robe cut off, so he felt a little depressed, but there was nothing he could do about it.

"Third young master, did you buy the Guo family's mine?" Father He heard the voice, and asked hesitantly when he came to pour water for Lu Ming after Liu Jingtang left.

Lu Ming nodded, "Yes, but I left a well for Guo's family, so it's no problem to maintain their current life." He kept telling his father and mother that he could call himself the third son or A Ming, but The two of them had to call themselves the third young master, and there was nothing they could do.

Hearing Lu Ming's words, Father He sighed lightly, and didn't say anything more.

When it was almost dinner time, He Mojun came back.

"Did you ask someone to go to the mountains?" Lu Ming asked.

He Mojun was stunned: "Are you serious?"

On the way to Jingyang Town, Lu Ming asked He Mojun to find someone to deliver a letter to the mountains and meet Hei Laoliu.

He Mojun thought Lu Ming was joking.

Lu Ming said: "Of course, since I came to Jingyang, I just happened to meet him by the way. Besides, it's better to settle the matter quickly than delay."

He Mojun looked at his parents, and said to Lu Ming: "Let's go to the wing room and talk." Then he said: "Dad, Mom, please watch."

The east chamber is very tidy. After entering, He Mojun stared at Lu Ming with beautiful eyes: "Do you know how many people and gunmen there are in the black sixth?"

Lu Ming nodded: "There are more than 300 people, and the ones who are really called are forty or fifty shots."

He Mojun looked at his expression, and asked again: "Although the black sixth boy has never done anything like massacre villages, burn, kill, loot, but if it doesn't go his way, he is no more merciful than the gang of old jackals, you know?"

Lu Ming smiled: "His so-called benevolence and righteousness are based on others obeying the rules he made. He doesn't charge randomly. He always sets the amount of so-called protection fees at his discretion, so that people can take it out, such as sending someone to my house. There, it is said that one thousand a month, in fact, for the general coal boss, for the sake of safety, if he is given to him, he will be given to him, if he is not given to him, it seems that he does not know how to flatter him, and his next revenge will be felt by others. Of course."

"So, his benevolence and righteousness are just an illusion, he is very shrewd, or he has a good dog-headed military advisor."

He Mojun frowned slightly, "City Guard, have you communicated?"

Lu Ming shook his head: "No need, I brought an armed force. Since Hei Lao Liu is a shrewd person, talking to him is a way out for him. I hope he is really shrewd, not only abide by his own rules You will understand the rules, and sometimes you must abide by the rules set by others.”

He Mojun looked at Lu Ming with surprise in his eyes. There was a faint meaning in this little uncle's words that he came here to make the rules.

I haven't seen him for a few years. This little uncle is really a different person, not the same as before.

If it's not that he doesn't believe in the theory of ghosts and gods, he might really suspect that the little uncle in front of him is some kind of mountain spirit and earth ghost.

Lu Ming raised his head and smiled: "Sister-in-law, I have an impression that you also studied law when you went to college, right? After your honeymoon, you made a fuss about going out to work, but in the end you didn't make it... My family wasn't so happy back then. enlightened."

He Mojun sighed: "It's all in the past, what are you talking about?"

"Okay, sister-in-law, you can ask someone to go to the mountains. I will write a letter and take it there. I will invite the Sixth Lord Hei to come to Jingyang Town if you have time tomorrow. In addition, I have to ask someone to go to the county overnight. .”

He Mojun nodded: "Since you have a plan in mind, I will ask someone to do it, but third son, you really have to think about it, there are no good men and women among the bandits in the mountains."

Lu Ming smiled: "I know."

He Mojun got up and went to the door to save himself, "For dinner, Yunan's father wants to invite you to his house. Probably, there is no hope. I think you should eat here and stay here tonight." For some reason, in front of this former brother-in-law, he couldn't say anything like "family man".

Lu Ming nodded: "Well, I'll be here." The relationship is too chaotic, and it would be awkward to have dinner at Guo's house.
