"That's right, I know how to fight and kill all day long. Didn't I tell you a long time ago? Use your brain when things happen. Use your brain!"
After hearing his wife's words reprimanding his son, Mr. Xu decisively stood on his wife's side and began to criticize and educate Mr. Xu.
Boss Xu was dumbfounded for a moment and stared at his father. His eyes were clearly asking, "Dad, are you serious?"
Speaking of fighting and killing, it seems that his father is the instigator!
The person from the Xu Mansion was first beaten by his father, and then killed by someone who came out of nowhere.
When people from Xu Mansion come again, they will come to kill them.
Then, this group of people was wiped out by his father in the blink of an eye. After that, he pinned the matter on the head of an unknown knight, his unlucky fourth uncle.
Mr. Xu winked and gave Mr. Xu an ambassadorial wink.
This means, oh, I understand, let me stop being so murderous in front of my mother.
Got it, got it!
Boss Xu is indeed a smart kid, as good as his father in terms of his mind.
"Mom, you're right, my son got distracted!"
"It's better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. We have to find other ways to resolve this matter!"
Isn’t it just that the mother-in-law has one thing and the mother-in-law has another thing
Boss Xu is familiar with this.
After all, there are people who have been teaching this matter by words and deeds. After studying for so many years, I have already become better than my master.
"That's pretty much it!"
Old Mrs. Xu snorted, "Remember, when something happens, don't always think about fighting and killing. Of course, I don't mean to treat your brothers as helpless. If they are unreasonable, you must use your fists to speak. , then you’re welcome.”
"No matter what method is used, your safety comes first, do you understand?"
"understand!"
How could you not understand
Boss Xu immediately stated that he had been thinking about this matter carefully and tried to think of a way to solve the problem to the best of both worlds.
Of course, that's what it says.
But it is really difficult to find such a method.
The carriage turned around Lingshui Village and went straight to the courtyard gate of Old Xu's house.
Xu Laoer was squatting on the threshold. When he saw the carriage coming back, he jumped up.
"Dad, Mom, when you go to visit relatives, why don't you call me?"
“…”
Hearing Mr. Xu's obviously childish words, black lines appeared on Mr. Xu's forehead. Should this silly son be beaten
"Yes, yes!"
Before Mr. Xu could say anything, Mr. Xu also jumped out, "Dad, our family has relatives in this town? Why have you never mentioned them before?"
"Lao San, why are you back?"
"I'll come back with a message!"
Xu Laosan shrugged, "Dad, I heard that your uncle and our uncle were granted the title of Noble Marquis of Wealth!"
"By the way, you guys, don't just go..."
As expected, Xu Laosan had a quick mind and guessed it right away.
Mr. Xu snorted and said, "Why are you blocking the door? Hurry up, go in and talk in the room!"
"oh oh!"
Only then did Xu Lao Er and Xu Lao San get out of the way, and the group entered the house.
Mr. Xu glanced at his three sons standing neatly in front of him, raised his hand and pointed toward the door, saying: "Go and call all your wives over here!"
"okay!"
The three brothers filed out, went back to their respective houses, and called their wives into the main room.
Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu were sitting upright, with serious expressions.
When Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Li and Mrs. Wang came in, their hearts tightened when they saw the expressions of their father-in-law and mother-in-law. They inexplicably felt that the atmosphere at the scene was a bit serious.
As a result, the three of them stood in a more orderly manner, looking very reserved.
"Sit down, everyone, don't be so formal!"
Seeing the restraint of the three daughters-in-law, Mrs. Xu smiled and her expression softened.
"Mom, let's just stand!"
This was obviously going to be a big deal, so it was better for them to stand and listen.
Mr. Xu immediately told the story about recognizing this relative of the Zhao family.
"Although I recognize this relative, you still have to remember one thing, that is, don't have too much contact with the Zhao family. This relative of the Zhao family is not very close. Will we turn against each other in the future? I Not sure either.”
"You can decide this specific measure yourself!"
After hearing Mr. Xu finish speaking, Ms. Zhou looked at Mr. Xu, Ms. Li looked at Mr. Xu, and Ms. Wang stared at Mr. Xu.
Naturally, they have no say in this kind of matter. How to deal with this relative, they naturally have to listen to their men.
"Dad, if my uncle comes to ask us for something, should we agree or not?"
Boss Xu shook his hand, just like a primary school student asking a question.
Mr. Xu smiled slightly and said, "You decide this issue yourself and make up your own mind."
"I can't always follow you and help you make decisions."
"But remember one thing, don't be too honest with the Zhao family!"
"Dad, if you say this, I will understand!"
Xu Laoer immediately had an expression of "I've got everything under control", "You mean, don't you mean that our family, the Zhao family, and our uncle-in-law are just relatives in name only, right?"
"Right!"
Mr. Xu glared at Mr. Xu angrily, "Your father and I have always treated people with sincerity. Now that we recognize such a relative, then he is a serious relative and is my relative!"
"The point is, this is your father, my relative!"
Mr. Xu understands part of Zhao Bingzhen's thoughts and knows roughly what kind of person Zhao Bingzhen is.
"Dad, if you had said this earlier, wouldn't it be over?"
Xu Laoer looked at Mr. Xu with disgust, "I understand what you mean!"
"In other words, if you leave this family, they will be relatives; if you don't leave, they will be acquaintances!"
"Right?"
Right
Mr. Xu looked at his second son, who thought he was smart, and chuckled, "Second son, come here and I'll tell you if it's right!"
"What about that, Dad, there's no need for that!"
Looking at his father's eyes and expression, Xu Laoer didn't know that he had guessed wrong.
But, according to his father's attitude, how on earth are they going to face this relative
"What your father means is that you make your own choice about this relative. Whether you want to move around or not is up to you. Of course, if there are any problems, you have to bear them yourself!"
"Head of the family, that's what you mean, right?"
Mrs. Xu looked at Mr. Xu.
Mr. Xu nodded and said, "Yes, that's what it means!"
"You two, you two, usually think that you are extremely smart, but in fact, you are as stupid as anything!"
"Yes, yes, dad taught you a lesson!"
I train my son. What else can a son do besides being educated
"You three, come out with me!"
After reprimanding his three sons, Mr. Xu suddenly stood up and called his three sons out together. Only Mrs. Xu and her three daughters-in-law were left in the room.
The meaning is very simple, that is, let Mrs. Xu take this time to give advice to her three daughters-in-law.
Mrs. Xu understands what Mr. Xu means, and naturally she won't let this matter go wrong.
Mr. Xu called his three sons out. Instead of strolling in the yard, he went straight out of the house and walked to the fields to the east.
"Dad, what else can you do?"
Xu Laoer stood far away from his father, as if he was afraid that Mr. Xu would take the opportunity to deal with him.
Mr. Xu glanced at Mr. Xu and said, "There is something I need to tell you!"
"This matter has nothing to do with the Zhao family, it's the Xu family!"
"Before, the people who came to the Xu Mansion, especially the second ones, were led by Xu Yuanzun, the most favored son of Duke An Tai."
"It's just that he went to your second uncle's place in Fucheng with an old steward of Xu Mansion. Because he spoke nonsense, your second uncle punished him and put him in jail."
"However, that night, the magistrate's prison was breached and the prisoners inside were released. Xu Yuanzun and the steward were also missing."
"The imperial court sent people and gathered people from Xu Mansion to come down to investigate this case."
"He is still in Fucheng now."
"Dad, could it be my second uncle who clicked that Xu Yuanzun?"
After hearing Mr. Xu's words, Xu Lao Er subconsciously came up with such an idea and blurted it out.
"have no idea."
Mr. Xu chuckled and said, "Your second uncle didn't write to me. Besides, if you had done such a thing, would you tell others?"
can you
This is definitely not the case.
If one more person knows about this kind of thing, the risk of exposure will increase.
Therefore, even if the truth is indeed what Xu Laoer said, Shen Wansheng will never admit it.
"Dad, do you mean that people from the Xu Mansion will come again?"
"Maybe they will bring this matter to our family again?"
Boss Xu frowned.
At this moment, he finally understood.
Sure enough, he had kept this matter simple before. People in the Xu Mansion can't be killed just by killing them. Even if you want to kill, you have to make it look like someone else did it, and it has to be reasonable.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for the court to explain.
"Come, I will definitely come."
"As for whether the matter is being blamed on our family, that's not necessarily the case!"
"Don't forget, your uncle is now a first-class wealthy prince. Although he is not as good as the Xu Mansion with three masters, he is a wealthy prince who controls huge wealth. Even the emperor must take a high look at him."
"Dad, is this why you recognize this relative?"
Boss Xu blinked.
Mr. Xu rolled his eyes at his eldest son and said, "Weren't you there at that time? Why did your father and I recognize this relative? Don't you have any idea?"
Is this relative Mr. Xu wants to recognize
Isn’t it that Zhao Bingzhen holds the handle that forces him to recognize this relative
Boss Xu shrugged. I think he really asked the wrong question.
"Brother, what happened at that time?"
Xu Laoer immediately grabbed Boss Xu. He didn't follow him to see his uncle, so he naturally didn't know what was going on at that time. From what his father said, it seemed that this relative was very reluctant to recognize him!
Boss Xu chuckled and said, "Dad, the second brother is asking me, should I tell him?"
"What do you think?"
Mr. Xu gave Mr. Xu a cold look.
"Anyway, you all have something!"
"The Zhao family, for the sake of your grandmother, will remember the old relationship to some extent. Of course, the premise is that your surname is my Xu, not the Xu of Xu Mansion in the capital, nor the Xu of your grandfather!"
"But, the Xu Mansion, although they bleed the same blood as you, they don't recognize you, Xu!"
"Last time, they said they were coming to clean up the house."
"In the evening, I practice my kung fu well."
"Especially the third child, you are the only one who likes to be clever, and your kung fu is the most ordinary."
"During this period, in addition to the marksmanship I taught you, you will also practice the breathing technique taught to you by your master."
"Don't run into trouble in the future and regret that you didn't practice well before."
Mr. Xu spoke so seriously that Mr. Xu was so frightened that he nodded repeatedly.
What is this thing called
He is a good scholar, but now he has to dance with a stick and shoot a gun every day.
However, although he complained in his heart, Xu Laosan knew very well that what his father said was not a joke.
Having read many history books, he may have a better understanding of the bloody nature of the battle in the Gaomen compound than his two brothers.
Now that they are no longer in that house, they have to endure much less.
But also because of this, if the people inside want to deal with them, they don't have to play too many tricks, and they can even directly use force to kill them.
Thinking of the strong smell of blood at his door that day, Xu Laosan was filled with fear.
If his father was not at home that day, would their family be ruined now
Xu Mansion in the capital!
The hatred of life and death!
Xu Laosan originally planned to go to Xiachang to take the provincial examination next year, giving him an extra year to settle down. But now, he has changed his mind.
"Dad, I want to take part in this year's provincial examination!"
After Xu Laosan made up his mind, he immediately looked up at Mr. Xu and expressed his thoughts.
"good!"
Mr. Xu nodded directly without asking why.
"Third brother, are you sure?"
Boss Xu looked at Xu Laosan in shock, "Actually, there's no need to be in such a hurry!"
"Are you sure? Before you pass the exam, who can say that you will definitely win?"
"However, I guess it's impossible to pass the Jieyuan exam. However, it's not a big problem to pass the Juren exam!"
In fact, after passing the exam of Xiangyi Prefecture, Xu Laosan once wanted to make an impact to see if it was possible for him to win three yuan in a row and win the title of Jieyuan, Member and Number One Scholar in one fell swoop.
The Great Three Elements is an achievement that every scholar wants to achieve.
Xu Laosan is naturally no exception.
In all dynasties, those who hit three yuan in a row are very rare.
As long as one person appears, he will definitely become famous and have a bright future.
But Xu Laosan also understood that it was unrealistic to win the big three yuan.
But now, after discovering that the people in the Xu family treat their family like ants, pigs and dogs, Xu Laosan understands that he should not pursue the hopeless Great Three Yuan, he has to face reality.
When he passed the Jinshi examination, he became an official in the court.
We have to see if the Xu Mansion, which is a family of three men, can still treat the family members of the imperial officials like ants, and whether the court will allow the Xu Mansion to continue to trample on the court's laws! (End of chapter)
