Pawn Crossing the River

Zhang Wuyue asked, "Where is my sister-in-law?"

Zhong Boyu asked, "Do you want to hear the truth? Or do you want to hear lies?"

Zhang Wuyue became interested, "How to tell the truth, and how to tell lies?"

Zhong Boyu said, "If I tell lies, I am already like this. I can't drag others down. Besides, I am a useless person. How can I have the face to see her? I gave her all the remaining money and asked her to go back to her parents' home. Our master We have to shoulder the responsibility, this is the responsibility of being a man.”

Zhang Wuyue couldn't help but ask, "What about the truth?"

Zhong Boyu said, "The truth is, husband and wife are birds of the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster strikes. Not only do they share the same adversity, but they also add insult to injury. The son of a bitch, when he saw something happened to me, he immediately took my family property and ran away. Before leaving, I also reported to the local government that I was a demon cultist, and I was almost arrested and beheaded. I don’t know where this bitch is now raising a pretty girl. If I can make a comeback, I will kill her whole family within three days.”

Zhang Wuyue finally couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Brother, oh brother, you have a leak in the house and it rained all night. I cut the hemp rope at the thinnest part and kicked the lame man's good leg."

Zhong Boyu asked, "Do you have any cigarettes? Give me one."

Zhang Wuyue does not smoke, but he usually carries some cigarettes with him for socializing, and they are the top-notch ones, with gold-rimmed cigarette cases.

Zhang Wuyue took out one and gave it to Zhong Boyu.

"Good stuff, just this one, at least one peace coin." Zhong Boyu put it under his nose, sniffed it, and held it in his mouth, "If I had put this in my mouth before, I wouldn't have felt anything. Instead, I would have thought that I was beating you A cigarette gives you face, but now, you can’t bear to smoke it.”

"See, this is a middle-aged man. Failure is the biggest original sin. Any other morals and responsibilities are all false and deceptive."

"I have been taught since I was a child to be the pillar of support, but I have never thought about what to do if the pillar of support collapses. I now understand that if the pillar of support collapses, just move to another house to live in. What is a man? It is a tool, an ox or a horse, the kind that is thrown away after use. It’s best to die immediately when you can’t do anything anymore, so that everyone can worry less.”

Zhang Wuyue was still smiling, but when he heard this, he suddenly stopped laughing.

Why did he give up his job in Daomen and run out to make money? It's because he can't afford a house in Yujing.

Why does he have to buy Yujing's house when he has a house at home? Because I want to get married.

Getting married is a matter for two people, why should he bear the burden himself?

Because he is a man, he has been taught since he was a child to be a pillar of support and to protect others from wind and rain.

Zhang Wuyue had some regrets.

No, what about the equality promised? we agreed

Can a female Taoist priest hold up half the sky? Why am I the mainstay now?

At this point, what is the difference between Zhang Wuyue and Zhong Boyu?

Zhang Wuyue also took out a cigarette from the cigarette box and stuffed it in his mouth.

Zhong Boyu glanced at him, "It seems like you have some stories too."

Zhang Wuyue first helped Zhong Boyu light the cigarette, then lit it for himself, and took a deep breath. "I wouldn't come here without a story. But my story is nothing compared to you, brother."

Zhong Boyu blew out a smoke ring, "Actually, let's be realistic. A woman's weakness can only be exchanged for sympathy, while a man's weakness can only be exchanged for ridicule, contempt and more bullying, so you must not fail. When I am proud, you My ex-sister-in-law is also gentle and sweet, and she will do everything for me. If I can’t do it anymore, then don’t blame others for being unkind. Marrying a man to marry a man, getting clothes and food is a kind of exchange. If you don’t have any leverage, others will take care of you. I'll kick you in the ass and find someone who can protect you."

Zhang Wuyue said, "That's not necessarily the case. My sister is not like that. Back then, my brother-in-law didn't have to worry about anything he wanted. He was sincere. We even made up a joke at that time, saying that one must be sincere, have a family background and be sincere." Sincerity, you have to be sincere if you want a future, my sister never cares about this."

"Later, it turned out that we were all blind, but my sister was the one with the most insight."

"Despite the rumors that she is domineering, she thinks that my brother-in-law is strictly controlled. In fact, she doesn't care about my brother-in-law at all. The two of them discuss everything, or go their own way."

Zhong Boyu did not refute, but asked, "How many Zhang Yuelu are there in the world?"

Zhang Wuyue was speechless.

After a while, Zhang Wuyue asked, "Brother, what are you going to do in the future? You can't just wait to die like a walking zombie."

Zhong Boyu said, "I'm a damned person. I'm lucky enough to be able to save my life. I don't dare to ask for too much. Let's just leave it like this."

The two sat side by side on the steps along the street, smoking in silence.

The red cigarette butt flickered in the darkness.

When the cigarette was almost burnt, Zhang Wuyue put it out and said, "Old Zhong, come with me, I'm short of manpower now."

"What business are you doing now?" Zhong Boyu was not very interested and was still sucking on the butt of his cigarette.

Zhang Wuyue said, "What else can I do? Of course.

I was running errands for my brother-in-law. But you also said that my brother-in-law is now a man of great influence. Even if I just work as a follower for him, his career will not be too small. I didn't lie to you just now. I did just finish negotiating a business with someone, and I had a rough idea. There are still many things to do next, and I need a helper. "

Zhong Boyu flicked away the cigarette butt with some residual sparks, "Can I do that?"

Zhang Wuyue said, "The fact that you were able to infiltrate the core members of Bai Yutang shows that you are capable. Moreover, the world has changed, and it is not difficult to recover even if your cultivation level is lost. There are always ups and downs in life, aren't you still there?" Do you want to take revenge on your wife? "

Zhong Boyu said, "My identity is sensitive, you'd better ask Master Qi before making a decision."

Zhang Wuyue didn't force it, and said, "I live in the Taiping Inn in Xingang. You can go find me there."

Zhong Boyu responded.

Zhang Wuyue stood up and left.

Walking on the street this time, Zhang Wuyue looked at the bright moon in the sky and secretly made up his mind to complete this errand and not end up like Zhong Boyu, becoming a waste in the eyes of others.

But Zhang Wuyue doesn't know that human nature is always greedy. Even if you have power and money, you still can't escape this disaster.

Lu Yujue has been in a bit of a bad mood recently. Considering his age, position, rank, and power, no one can say that he is not good. He is considered to be the best among Taoist priests. To work as an assistant in the Southern Continent, you need to have face and dignity. The only drawback is that I am away from home all year round and cannot go home.

It happened that Lu Yujue was married, and his Taoist companion was Zhou Xiaosong. This long-term separation did have an impact on their relationship. At the beginning, he might not have noticed anything, but as time went on, Zhou Xiaosong became dissatisfied and lonely. He complained about Lu Yujue, thinking that he didn't know how to coax his wife, and even scolded Lu Yujue for not counting on anything. When she falls in love with him, she has to do everything by herself, and it's like being a widow.

Lu Yujue naturally felt that he was wronged. I have been away all year round for Taoist errands. When the two sides were fighting, I had to cooperate with the army and go to the front line under the fire of the Westerners. It's okay if you don't understand me, and you said you can't count on me. If I quit and stay with you every day when I go home, will you think that I am incompetent and incompetent? Are you going to dislike me for not being able to give you face? How can you take advantage of all the good things in the world?

As for coaxing my wife, if you are in a bad mood, I am still in a bad mood. I'm stressed out all day long. It's hard to deal with Westerners, and it's even harder to deal with my immediate boss. Who's going to comfort me?

That being said, Zhou Xiaosong did not recognize this truth, and the conflict between the two continued to intensify.

At this time, it becomes more dangerous. Because when many women reach this point, they will seek help from others.

During the war between the North and the South, when Lu Yujue was busiest, Zhou Xiaosong gave Lu Yujue a big cuckold.

The process is not complicated. Zhou Xiaosong is the head of Tiangang Hall, and his immediate boss is the deputy head of the hall, Li Minghuang.

Because of the relationship between superiors and subordinates, Zhou Xiaosong often went to Li Minghuang's contract room to report, and troubles arose when he went back and forth.

I have to admit that Li Minghuang is a very charming man and very strong.

On the contrary, Lu Yujue is not very strong at home and likes to pamper Zhou Xiaosong.

Zhou Xiaosong was used to being the only one at home, but when she suddenly met a domineering man like Li Minghuang, who forced her down, she felt suffocated. Especially the way Li Minghuang looked at her was extremely aggressive, like a knife, as if he could see through her whole body and want to strip her naked, giving her a special feeling in her long-lasting body.

Occasionally, the two of them would have some physical contact, which would make her heart tremble every time.

Li Minghuang was a romantic man, and Zhang Jucheng's daughter and Li Tianlan's wife were both his prey. But Li Minghuang is very smart. He knows which women he can touch and which women he cannot touch. For example, Zhang Yuelu cannot be touched. Only fools like Li Tianzhen would hit him.

Not to mention that Tiangang Hall is the territory of Master Cihang. If he dares to provoke Zhang Yuelu, Master Cihang will not spare him.

Not to mention that Qi Xuansu looks generous but is actually vindictive. The key is that he is ruthless and ruthless. If he really gets involved, he will easily lose his skin.

In Li Minghuang's eyes, Zhang Yuelu can't even be considered a woman. This woman's temperament is too weird. I don't know what is going on in her mind. She can't be judged by common sense. It can easily lead to anger and anger, so it's best to stay away.

There is also Yao Pei, who is also somewhat seriously ill.

In short, Li Minghuang was very afraid of Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu.

But in Li Minghuang's view, who is Lu Yujue, can he be compared to Li Tianlan? Lu Yujue's wife just eats it. What else can Lu Yujue do to her? Grab Dier with your head.

Lu Yujue was born in Beichen Hall. What does Beichen Hall do? He was the one in charge of intelligence. Although Lu Yujue himself was not in the Central Plains, he had many old colleagues, old friends, and even relatives in Beichen Hall. Soon someone knew about it and told Lu Yujue.
