A Journey Through the Worlds of Film and Television

After staying in Lijiazhuang for two or three days, Lu Cheng returned to Lujiazhuang. It was the New Year, and he didn't want to continue working for the Song Dynasty. Back in the village, Lu Cheng continued to live his life as a local rich man with beauties on both sides. Although it was already the coldest month of winter, Lu Cheng had designed the heating, kang, simple heating pipes, and the latest glass windows installed on the windows, so the house was always warm as spring. Less than three days after Lu Cheng returned home, Hu Cheng from Hujiazhuang came to Lujiazhuang with people and gifts. After some greetings, Hu Cheng didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "Master Lu, what do you think of my third daughter?"

"She is a good girl with a dignified appearance and good martial arts skills."

"To be honest, I came here this time to marry Master Lu. My younger sister has been fond of swordplay since she was young. She thinks highly of herself and has always looked down on young men of the same generation. Now she is eighteen or nineteen years old and still unmarried. Since I met Master Lu last time, I fell in love with him at first sight and miss him every day. I came here on behalf of my father to ask Master Lu what he thinks. If Master Lu doesn't dislike my younger sister's appearance, our Hu family is willing to marry my younger sister to him. "Master of the Manor."

Lu Cheng smiled slightly: "I naturally have some good feelings for Sanniang. But with my current status, if Sanniang wants to marry me, she can only be a concubine."

"This little man naturally knows, and Sanniang is also willing."

"In this case, Lu will not refuse."

Hearing Lu Cheng's agreement, Hu Cheng immediately became happy: "Then... do you think we can discuss an auspicious date? We send my younger sister over?"

"Okay..."

Lu Cheng also likes Hu Sanniang a little. After all, the other party's appearance is really good, and the heroic spirit that is different from ordinary women is really attractive.

Lu Cheng has always been a vulgar man, greedy for money and lustful, and he likes young and beautiful women, and the more the better.

Moreover, women like Hu Sanniang who have practiced martial arts have better body flexibility, can easily achieve waist and horse unity, and complete various difficult movements, which can bring a completely different experience, just like Ding Baiying at the beginning.

After the two sides discussed it, Hu Cheng couldn't wait to set a date and agreed to send Hu Sanniang over before the Chinese New Year.

Lu Cheng also asked the housekeeper to prepare ten carts of betrothal gifts, including brocade cloth, silk fabrics, glass, soap, medicines, and some gold and silver treasures, and asked Wu Song and Shi Jin to personally lead people to escort this batch of materials to Hujia Village and pick up Hu Sanniang.

As for Lu Cheng, he would not go there in person. Just like when he taught Zhu Biao a lesson, Lu Cheng did not take action. After all, the status of the two parties was very different, and Lu Cheng did not need to take action.

The women in the family did not say anything about Lu Cheng having another woman.

After Lu Cheng's previous efforts, Zhang Zhenniang, Jin Cuilian, and Pan Jinlian were all pregnant, and now they are paying attention to the children in their stomachs.

Xia He and Qiu Lan have been working hard to serve Lu Cheng recently, hoping to get pregnant soon, but they don't know that their hard work is in vain, and the decision is still in Lu Cheng's hands.

Jin'er is not very thoughtful and has not thought about this issue.

Ji Ruxue is still busy practicing martial arts. When she heard that a girl who can use double swords is going to marry, she was eager to try and compete with the other party in swordsmanship.

Liu Ruyan is a calm person, not fighting or competing, and is at ease reading. Among these women in the family, Liu Ruyan is the one who likes reading the most, and it is also Liu Ruyan who often accompanies Lu Cheng to work. Her position is still irreplaceable, so naturally she will not care about a newcomer.

Just two days before the New Year's Eve, Wu Song and Shi Jin brought a convoy to escort Hu Sanniang all the way to Lujiazhuang.

On that day, Lujiazhuang held a big banquet and took the opportunity to treat all the guests to a good meal. Lu Cheng also sat down with the leaders who came back from various mountain strongholds in the north to drink and encourage each other.

Wu Song, Lu Da, Shi Jin, and Yang Zhi also returned to Lujiazhuang to celebrate the New Year together.

While eating, Lu Da introduced a new younger brother to Lu Cheng: "Master, this is Pei Xuan, known as the Iron-faced Man in the Jianghu. He used to be the Six Cases Officer in Jingzhao Prefecture. Because he was fair and impartial in his work, he offended his superiors and was exiled to Shamen Island.

I met him while escorting the convoy and rescued him. Seeing that he still had some skills, I brought him to the master of the manor. Master, how do you arrange it?"

Lu Cheng looked this man up and down. He saw that Pei Xuan was not tall, but was white and plump. He had two swords on his waist, but his face was full of righteousness. He smiled and said, "I have also heard of the name of the iron-faced man. I have heard that Pei Xuan is a rare hero and a righteous gentleman.

Since you have come to my place, you will have a place to stay. It is almost the New Year now, so you should settle down in the escort agency first. I will arrange things for you after the New Year."

"Thank you, the owner of the manor, for taking you in."

This iron-faced man, Pei Xuan, was originally an upright official. It was only because of his iron-faced and fair conduct that he offended his superiors, was persecuted and framed, and was exiled to Shamen Island.

In the original book, when Pei Xuan passed by Yinmachuan on his way to exile, he was rescued by two bandits, Deng Fei and Meng Kang. The two bandits also gave the position of the leader of the mountain stronghold to Pei Xuan. Afterwards, Pei Xuan brought two people to join Liangshan. When Liangshan gathered, he was ranked 47th and was in charge of rewarding and punishing Liangshan.

With Pei Xuan's character and ability, he is very suitable to be an official in charge of military discipline and law.

Afterwards, Lu Cheng asked housekeeper Sun to settle Pei Xuan well, and also prepared a change of clothes, 100 taels of silver, and generous gifts for him.

As for the case on Kong Xuan's back, Lu Cheng didn't care at all.

After settling Kong Xuan, Lu Cheng sat down with Yang Zhi and had a good chat, and then took out some body-strengthening pills and gave them to Yang Zhi.

For the generals under his command, as long as they have passed the initial test, Lu Cheng will not be stingy with resources to cultivate them.

Like Wu Song, Lu Da, and Shi Jin, the strength of the three people is now far beyond the past, and is definitely much stronger than the peak period in the original book.

Following Lu Cheng, not only can everyone drink and eat meat, but also improve their physical fitness and increase their military strength. If necessary, he can also help them start a family and build a career. These people are naturally loyal.

After meeting with the leaders of the northern mountain strongholds, Lu Cheng gave everyone a generous reward, and planned to go to the north to inspect the training situation of various mountain strongholds in a few months.

He was busy until the night, and after sending off all the guests, Lu Cheng returned to the house, washed up, and went to enjoy the wedding night.

The north wind was whistling outside the window, and the candlelight was swaying inside the house.

Today, Hu Sanniang took off her military uniform and put on a red dress. She lost two points of heroic spirit and gained three points of charm. There was shyness between her eyebrows, and her face was rosy. She raised her head to speak, her eyes were full, and she just called out softly: "Master~"

"My wife, it's time for us to rest."

"Master, wait a moment, I forgot how to serve... My mother gave me a book..."

"No need, I am familiar with this matter, I will teach you..."

"Master~Woo~"

The north wind swayed the branches of the dead tree, there was a sound of rustling outside the window, and there was a sound of humming~ah ah in the house...
