Chapter 183
Surrounded by four Baihutang brothers, Li Zheng walked towards the gate of the Silian Gang with a serious face.
"Hall Master Li."
The two Xuanwu Hall brothers guarding the gate saw him and greeted him respectfully.
Li Zheng glanced at the two of them, suddenly stopped walking out, and asked: "Where is your hall master?"
The two thought for a while, and someone said: "He should still be at the entrance of the hall, I didn't see him going out."
Li Zheng said "hmm" and turned around to walk towards the entrance of Xuanwu Hall.
The chief helmsman of the Silian Gang sits in the north and faces south. The chief helmsman's hall is at the deepest point. It is the side hall of Qinglong Hall and Xuanwu Hall. The branch chief helmsman is in the east and west, guarding the chief helmsman's hall.
When Li Zheng walked into the entrance of Xuanwu Hall, he saw Daxiong arranging his troops.
His eyes glanced at the dozen large wooden boxes stacked in the corner, and his heart became even heavier... He recognized those dozen boxes, and they contained fish scale armor.
Fish scale armor is a military weapon and it is taboo. Xuanwu Hall will never use fish scale armor except in war.
"Bear."
Li Zheng shouted softly.
Da Xiong turned around and saw that it was Li Zheng. He smiled and said, "Brother Zheng, why are you here?"
"Have a chat."
Li Zheng raised his chin towards the shade of a tree with few people nearby.
Da Xiong nodded, casually ordered an incense master to step forward and continue to rectify the troops, then turned around and walked to the shade of the tree with Li Zheng.
"What happened to the gang?"
Li Zheng went straight to the point.
Daxiong glanced at him, "Didn't Mr. Chu tell you?"
"I said it, but I didn't make it clear. Otherwise, why would I ask you?"
Li Zheng's tone was a little dissatisfied.
Daxiong shook his head: "Master Chu didn't explain it clearly to you. He must have his reasons. I can't talk too much."
Li Zheng raised his eyebrows and said unhappily: "Are we still good brothers?"
Daxiong smiled and said, "Just tell the story, don't talk about anything else... Master Chu has told you something, right? Just do what he told you to do."
After saying that, he was leaving.
Li Zheng held him down, lowered his voice and asked: "Tell me honestly, is it some official from the county government who wants to trouble Mr. Chu? If so, you don't need to tell me who passed by, just name it, I will go and do it tonight
If you kill him, I promise not to drag down our Fourth Alliance Gang."
Hearing this, Da Xiong held him down with his backhand: "Listen to me, this matter is not as simple as you think. If the problem could be solved by killing someone, Master Chu would have done it long ago. Do we still need you and me to make our own decisions?"
"Brother Dog, you can do whatever you want with other things. Even if you mess up, our own brothers will help you carry it. If we can't carry it, we will have Master Chu to help you. But in this matter, you must listen to me.
, whatever Master Chu says, do what you do, don’t disrupt Master Chu’s plan!”
Li Zheng was helpless and finally nodded.
…
Zhang Chu returned home.
Hearing the sound of wind chimes on the carriage, Xia Tao trotted out of the kitchen and happily presented her treasure to Zhang Chu: "Master, look, I can steam buns."
Zhang Chu calmed down, glanced at her little face like a little cat, then looked at the dead-faced steamed bun in her hand, grabbed her with a smile, picked up his sleeves and carefully wiped the flour on her face: "Fu
Isn’t there a servant here? Why are you learning this?”
Xia Tao suddenly stopped moving, as if a restraining spell had been cast on her.
She looked at Zhang Chu dreamingly, feeling his gentle breath hitting her face, and the young girl's heart seemed to have grown up all of a sudden.
"Hey, this looks so beautiful!"
Zhang Chu put away his sleeves, looked at her with a smile, then took the steamed bun in her hand, fed it to his mouth and took a bite.
"Yeah, delicious!"
Zhang Chu nodded and said.
After saying that, he gently rubbed her bun like a child and walked towards the living room.
"Master, you're back."
Zhiqiu came out of the backyard and greeted him with a smile.
"Well, where is mother?"
Zhang Chu asked.
Zhiqiu walked up to him lightly, stood on tiptoes and smoothed the wrinkles on his shoulders as gently as water: "Mom is resting in the room. She is a little uncomfortable today. I think the weather is too big and she has a heat stroke."
"Yeah?"
Zhang Chu raised his legs and walked towards the backyard, "Go and have a look."
Xia Tao stood in the yard, looking at their retreating figures infatuatedly, feeling that they matched each other so well, as if they were a pair of people walking out of a painting.
She suddenly felt a little envious.
…
Zhang Chu pushed open the door of Zhang's room and walked in quietly.
Mrs. Zhang was still asleep and didn't even know that Zhang Chu had come in.
Zhang Chu stepped forward and touched his old mother's forehead. It was not hot.
"Have you asked the doctor to come and see you?"
Zhang Chu asked Zhiqiu in a low voice.
Zhiqiu shook his head gently, "No, mother won't let me."
Zhang Chu frowned and said, "I'm confused. She won't let her go, so you just let her have her way? Go, send someone immediately and ask a doctor to come over and show your mother a look."
"Yes, sir."
Seeing Zhang Chu's rare slight anger, Zhiqiu couldn't help but panic, turned around and hurried out.
"Chu'er."
Perhaps Zhang Chu's "confused" voice just now was a little louder, and Zhang woke up leisurely.
"Hey, mother, I'm here."
Zhang Chu hurriedly sat beside the bed and helped his mother sit up.
"Are you busy today?"
Mrs. Zhang looked at Zhang Chu, her cloudy eyes full of kindness.
Zhang Chu said with a smile: "I'm not very busy. I have Li Zheng, Daxiong, Mule and the others helping me. I just sit and share the money every day!"
Zhang stretched out her hand, gently touched Zhang Chu's forehead, and said slowly: "Mom just dreamed about your father... He was dressed in snowflakes. He told mother that he was cold and asked her to find some clothes for him, but mother didn't
I searched all over the old house but couldn't find his winter coat. My mother wanted to ask my brother to help me look for it together. She stood outside the door of the old house and called for a long time, but your eldest brother didn't respond to my mother."
Her words were so distant that they seemed to come from a very far away place. Her eyes were clearly looking at Zhang Chu, but they gradually lost focus.
Zhang Chu's heart suddenly tightened.
He quickly held my mother's hand and said with a forced smile: "Mom, don't think nonsense. How can it be cold in this summer? You have heat stroke. My son has asked Zhiqiu to send for a doctor. Wait for the doctor to catch you."
I’ve given you some medicine, and you’ll be able to steam steamed buns for me again tomorrow morning!”
"Mom, you haven't seen your grandson yet, so you can't explain to my father. Next time he comes to see you, don't talk to him, lest he teach you a lesson... According to my son, you should be down-to-earth.
Enjoy your happiness, next year I will definitely ask Zhiqiu to give you a big fat grandson, and then you can watch that little bastard grow up. When he turns eighteen, I will give him a ten-bedroom apartment.
Wife, let him give you a big, fat great-grandson!"
"At that time, when you see my father again, why don't you look at him? If he dares to give you face, don't tell him what his grandson and great-grandson look like..."
Mrs. Zhang listened with longing to the beautiful future described by Zhang Chu, even the corners of her eyes had smile lines.
"very nice……"
