My master is invincible

Chapter 284 Nine Coffins (6)

After dinner, Lord Jiang led us around the town and briefly introduced the local customs and customs.

My whole heart is attached to the funeral of the old hero, and I am not very interested in these customs and customs. No matter what Jiang Ye said, he simply said "oh".

He seemed to see that I was absent-minded, smiled wryly, and led us back to the hotel.I thought that the first thing I would do when I got back to the hotel would be to talk to me about the funeral of the old hero.

Unexpectedly, Master Jiang found some tea sets and put them in the room, and boiled some hot water to make tea. Afterwards, he arranged Fatty Guo and I to sit beside him and stutter across from him.

After the tea was brewed, he poured a cup of tea for each of us and said, "There is no rush, so drink a cup of tea first to calm yourself down, and then talk about the old hero."

After finishing speaking, he picked up the teacup and took a sip. I followed his example and took a sip from the teacup. The taste was very bitter, with a hint of sweetness. I glanced at him suspiciously and asked, "Why? Does it smell sweet?"

He chuckled and said lightly: "In our carving industry, there has always been a saying that life is judged by a cup of tea. This tea looks like a glass of water, but in fact contains the ups and downs of a lifetime. The same tea leaves are tasted by different people, and there will be All kinds of tastes. And this funeral is like the cup of tea in my hand, if different people handle it, different results will appear."

I was stunned for a moment, listening to the meaning of this, is there something else hidden about the old hero's funeral?So, I asked him why.

He stared at me for a while, then asked, "Are you wondering why the masters of metaphysics in the ancestral hall chose one of the nine sons of the Lu family?"

I nodded and said, "Isn't it? Just like the emperor in ancient times, he was just the master of a funeral, so it wouldn't be so looting, right?"

He smiled slightly and said: "The old hero has too much halo, which is hereditary. As long as he becomes the head of the funeral, to put it bluntly, he can accept the halo of the old hero. This is of great importance to the nine sons of the Lu family who are in business. They can use these auras to make a big fuss, double their own assets, or even several times, with more money, it will naturally make some metaphysics masters lean towards them, which is normal!"

"The government won't intervene?" I asked suspiciously. As an old hero, the government should be able to put an end to this kind of thing. After all, the old hero is happy and mourning, and it is unreasonable to have nine sons robbing the master.

He shook his head and said: "This is the old hero's family business. In addition to the aura of the old hero, it is just some honor without actual power. The government is not good at coming forward, so we have to let it choose its own heir. However, the old hero will He has devoted most of his life to the country, and he has little regard for those honors. In terms of heirs, he has not clearly indicated who will inherit them. According to the old hero's thinking, he intends to let the country take back those honors. However, the country will not treat them like this As an anti-Japanese hero, I plan to choose one of the nine sons of the Lu family to inherit the honor of the old hero."

Hearing Master Jiang say this, I generally understand that the old hero intends to return his honor to the country, and the country is afraid of the hearts of the anti-Japanese heroes. After all, people have all kinds of attitudes, and not every anti-Japanese hero is like an old hero So open-minded.

"Then you support the seventh son of the Lu family, what's the situation?" I asked.

He picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "All the nine sons of the Lu family want to join the army, but the old hero doesn't let them join the army. He said that during the war, the Lu family can devote all their sons to the country. In peacetime, we should create more for the country." More economy and improved people's lives, this has resulted in nine sons of the Lu family, all of whom are engaged in business. The seventh son of the Lu family I support is called Lu Yaodong, who is considered the poorest among the nine sons of the Lu family, and runs a small company , A few years ago, something happened to me in Quyang, he saved me, and I owed him a favor, so I chose to support him this time, it's a kind of repayment!"

I have been wondering before that the old hero is an anti-Japanese hero. It is reasonable to say that the descendants of his family should go into the army instead of doing business.

Now that Master Jiang said this, I suddenly realized that it was the old hero who did not allow the nine sons of the Lu family to join the army.

After thinking for a while, I asked Master Jiang, "How about the other members of the Lu family?"

He smiled, poured us another cup of tea, and said: "The tiger father has no dogs, this sentence is most suitable for the Lu family. There are eight other members of the Lu family, the old Dalu Jianguo, the second Lu Jianjun, the third Lu Guoqing, The fourth Lu Aiguo, the fifth Lu Aimin, the sixth Lu Bayi, the eighth Lu Chunsheng, and the ninth Lu Qiusheng. These eight people are all extremely smart. Among the merchants in Hebei, they are all leaders in business, especially Lu Qiusheng , is known as the richest man in Hebei. Compared with these eight people, Lu Yaodong, the old seventh, looks extremely ordinary, but fortunately he has a lot of time, and he is usually by the old hero's side, and he is the most filial to the old hero."

When I heard the names of the nine sons of the Lu family, I was also drunk, and my tongue was very awkward, but from the side, I can see the mentality of the old heroes, just like the two names of Lu Jianguo and Lu Jianjun. These two people should have been born in the 49th year of Jianguo !

In this case, the old hero can be regarded as a late marriage and late childbearing. After all, he joined the army at the age of 28 and fought against Japan for eight years. In addition to some civil wars later, the old hero should not start having children until he was close to 40 years old.

"Didn't you have a daughter?" I asked suspiciously.Master Jiang shook his head, but did not speak.

I was stunned, and there was another doubt in my heart. When I was in the car, He Jianhua said that the nine sons of the Lu family did not get along with each other. Normally, they are all biological brothers, so they should have a good relationship. How could they not get along?
I asked the doubts in my heart, and Master Jiang said: "In the early years, the relationship between the nine sons of the Lu family was the same as that of ordinary families. There were some conflicts of interest in the business, and there were constant quarrels between the brothers. Now, the brothers regard each other as life and death enemies. In addition, the nine sons of the Lu family want to inherit the honor of the old hero, and the hatred between them is even greater. gone."

After finishing speaking, Master Jiang sighed and muttered: "During the Anti-Japanese War, the old heroes regarded their comrades-in-arms as their own brothers. Unexpectedly, the descendants would turn their brothers against each other and become enemies. The world is impermanent!"

After hearing this, I felt a sense of helplessness in my heart. It is said that money can change a person's heart. This is absolutely true. The nine sons of the Lu family are the true portrayal of these words. With the money, the affection is gone. In the eyes of the nine sons of the Lu family , I am afraid there are only benefits!

Afterwards, several of us chatted for a while, and the chat lasted for several hours. I knew a lot about the funeral from Mr. Jiang. Daoist Liuyun, his identity is the vice president of the Chinese Metaphysics Association.
