Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of the game, Lao Zhu resigned and retired.

Chapter 699 The Old Man in Zhuangzi

Lao Du!

Another familiar yet unfamiliar name!

From the very beginning, Hu Weiyong was used to calling him Lao Du.

Because this kid looked old by nature, when he was in his teens or twenties, he looked like he was forty.

But there is one good thing about this kid, that is, he is good at martial arts and is quite loyal.

In the past, he, like Lao Zhang, was a bodyguard protecting Master Hu.

To put it bluntly, he is a bodyguard.

After all, Master Hu at that time was far less glorious than he is now, and he was not even the prime minister.

When officials or factions fight each other, they sometimes really resort to murder.

Especially during the period of founding the country, the entire Central Plains was in chaos.

If you go out, especially if you go far away, and don't bring a few bodyguards with you, you might really die.

And Lao Du was injured during a mission to protect Master Hu.

One arm was chopped off on the spot.

After receiving treatment, he was sent to Hujiazhuang to recuperate.

He said he was recuperating, but in fact he was just retiring.

He settled down in Hujiazhuang, started a family, had children, and gradually became an ordinary farmer.

Naturally, Mr. Hu would not sit idly by and watch such a "hero" who had made great contributions to his family be completely ignored.

Not only do they double the New Year and festival gifts, but they will also definitely help with any problems you have in your daily life.

Therefore, seeing that Old Du had become like this, Master Hu was somewhat unhappy.

"Even if Lao Du spent a lot of money on treating his family, can he still starve to death if he doesn't tell Hu Yi?"

"How did it come to this?"

This is actually what puzzles Mr. Hu the most.

Hujiazhuang looks like a farm where tenant farmers cultivate the land, but in fact, it is a bit like the farm I saw in my previous life.

Here, you can directly go to Hu Yi for many matters such as eating, drinking, defecating, and urinating.

It’s just like the situation that Lao Du’s family is in trouble right now.

If you can’t handle it, it’s okay, just go find Hu Yi.

Hu Yi can definitely arrange it for you.

Of course, Hu Yi is also a smart man, he will definitely not solve all your problems cleanly.

More importantly, we help solve the most troublesome problems.

But it's good enough to do this.

What else do you want?

When Old Zhang heard what Master Hu said, he simply led Master Hu towards the "dangerous house".

"Master, let's go inside!"

"You'll know after you look at the situation!"

The house is not tall. It is obvious that no one paid much attention to the renovation and it was just done in a haphazard manner.

After pushing open the shabby door that was hardly a door or a fence, the two of them walked into the dim room.

As soon as he entered, the first person Mr. Hu saw was not Lao Du, but a little girl with a pale and thin face but round eyes.

Judging from the look of the little girl, she is only three or four years old at most?

But this little kid, wrapped in tattered clothes, was struggling to hold a broken tea bowl and carefully pouring rice soup or tea into the mouth of Old Du who was lying there.

Mr. Hu didn't care about Lao Du at all at this moment.

Just by looking at the smell of alcohol filling the room and the disgusting filth on the ground, you can tell that Old Du is most likely useless.

My mind is broken, so I drink!
He doesn't care about Lao Du now, but the girl opposite him.

At this moment, the girl was also dumbfounded, staring at the two of them with her big round eyes.

"Lao Zhang, is this Lao Du's daughter?"

"Why do I remember him as a son?"

"Master, that's the eldest brother. He's now serving in the southwest. I heard he's become a county magistrate, not bad!"

"But you also know, sir, that the road is long and the sky is high. How can he come back without an imperial edict or a transfer?"

Seeing that Mr. Hu was interested in the little girl, Lao Zhang quickly introduced her.

"This girl is not as good as her elder brother. Her elder brother has everything. I remember that he went to school with the young master when he was a child." "And this girl is the daughter of Old Du in his old age!"

"But in the end, the Du family could only support it with all their might!"

"Unfortunately, her mother left her alone, and she died after only two years!"

"Then Old Du was ruined, and this girl had to eat at hundreds of houses and barely survive!"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Hu frowned and pondered for a moment.

Then, in the frightened eyes of the little girl opposite, he snatched the tea bowl from her hand and threw it aside, then picked her up and walked outside.

"Lao Zhang, ask someone to take Lao Du to wash up and sober up!"

"Then give him a good beating, loosen up his muscles, and bring him back to me!"

"I took this girl away. He didn't want a daughter, so I took her!"

After saying that, he strode out of the room!

And the little girl in his arms was indeed a smart one.

She was obviously a little girl of four or five years old, but at this moment she didn't cry or make a fuss. Instead, she looked at Master Hu with her big eyes and asked in a naive voice.

"Are you the master?"

Master Hu smiled when asked by the little girl.

"Yes, that's right, I am the master!"

"Your father used to work for me!"

"But your father isn't doing his job well now!"

"Look, I haven't taken good care of you!"

"So, I asked Lao Zhang to beat him up!"

"By the way, what's your name?"

小丫头听说自家老爹挨揍，双眸微微一闪，脸上的笑容都收殓了。

The little girl looked at Master Hu cautiously.

"Master, my name is Yaya!"

"Master, Yaya begs you, please don't beat my daddy!"
