Alienated Martial Arts.

Chapter 42 Different
Feng Zhen turned his head and looked towards the door.

The body trembled involuntarily, the frantic expression on his face disappeared, and he became stiff again.

Wei Tao stepped into the door step by step, looking at her expressionlessly.

"What you just said is very interesting, and I am very happy to hear it. Why don't you continue talking?"

He looked straight into Feng Zhen's eyes.

His eyes were cold and menacing, like a tiger that had found its prey and was looking for its mouth.

"I, I didn't say anything, I just have a good thing that can be paid for free, and I want to share it with Sister Zheng."

Feng Zhen got up subconsciously while speaking, and walked outside.

She didn't know why she was afraid, why she didn't dare to continue speaking when facing the Wei family kid.

But she could clearly feel that the young man in front of her, who was thin and weak a few months ago, but now strong and strong, had great hostility towards her.

If he stayed and didn't leave, even with the blessing of the goddess, he would probably be beaten violently by him, and he might even lose his life in this room.

Feng Zhen panicked and didn't choose a path, bumping his head against the door frame and ignoring it, he quickly left the courtyard and disappeared without a trace.

Wei Tao put down the things he was carrying, his face turned gentle.

He looked at the bewildered Zheng Suyun, smiled and said, "I just went to Jade Workshop to pick up my mother and sister from work, but I didn't expect you to come back after lunch."

"Oh, what about eldest sister, why didn't you see her?"

"Xiao Hong went to buy pork head meat. She was paid today. She has already planned to buy more meat for your health."

Zheng Suyun stared at Wei Tao non-stop, and even felt a little unacceptable for a while. Is it really his thin brother Tao in front of him?

"The food in the martial arts hall is very good, and I have enough fat every day, and I have gained some stature after working out every day." Wei Tao saw the doubt in her eyes, and explained with a smile.

"Okay, I'm going to find my eldest sister now, and my mother locked the door when she was alone at home.

If it is not your own family, no one will open the door again. "

As he spoke, he walked outside, but stopped after a few steps, and said in a serious tone, "The woman just now was abnormal, mother, please don't meet her again."

"Brother Tao, don't worry,
I didn't believe what she said.
How could it be possible to do nothing,
You can take food and money for nothing,
Isn't this obviously deceiving?

Even those pigs raised in captivity,

In the end, wouldn't he be slaughtered with a single knife if he was too fat to eat, and even the belt and bones would have to be returned to others? "

Zheng Suyun babbled behind, and had already recovered from the bewilderment just now. Looking at the tall and big Wei Tao at this time, his eyes were full of joy.

They found Wei Hong, and picked up Wei Rongxing who was going home outside Yaoshi Lane. The three of them each carried big and small bags of food, and when they returned home, the entire dining table was filled to the brim.

It was almost dusk, and the family sat around in one place, with all kinds of meat and vegetables in the middle, and two candles were lit extravagantly.

Wei Rongxing sat upright in the main seat, a distressed look vaguely flashed across his face.

He heaved a long sigh.

"I bought a portion of meat, and Da Nier bought a portion of meat,

Brother Tao bought two roast chickens and ten servings of meat,
There are so many steamed buns and flatbreads, what can I do. "

Snapped!
Wei Tao patted open the mud seal of a jar of shochu, filled it up for himself and Wei Rongxing, and said with a smile, "It's nothing to do, marinated meat with wine is rare, so just eat it."

He suddenly remembered something, took out two sterling silver hairpins from the cloth bag at the side, and handed them to Wei Hong.

"Sister, I bought this for you, see if it fits."

"It's really for me!?"

With a surprised expression on Wei Hong's face, he took the hairpins in his hands with some disbelief, weighed them, and couldn't help but let out a low voice.

She murmured, "It's so heavy and the workmanship is exquisite, it must cost a lot of money."

"As long as the elder sister likes it, it doesn't cost much."

"Brother Tao, you prodigal child, what do you do with these useless things? Even if you earn money in the martial arts gym, you should save it for emergencies."

Zheng Suyun seemed to want to say something else, but looking at Wei Hong's happy look, he didn't say anything after all.

Wei Tao picked up a chopstick of beef and ate it, and said to Wei Rongxing who was on the main seat, "Father, after this meal, we have to move."

"move place?"

"Who moved, what moved, and where?"

Wei Rongxing's hand holding the wine bowl froze in mid-air, with a dazed expression, looking at Wei Tao who was on the side.

"The environment in Yaoshi Lane is not very good, so I bought a house in it, and it's ready to move in." Wei Tao said casually, still eating his food.

At the dinner table, upon hearing Wei Tao's words, Wei's mother Zheng Suyun and sister Wei Hong put down their bowls and chopsticks and turned to look at him.

"Where is that house?" Zheng Suyun was curious.

"It's on Yufang Street, not too far from where my mother and sister work."

"Yufang Street..." Wei Hong opened his mouth, pinched himself hard with the hand under the table, and then murmured to himself, "The house there is really precious."

Wei Tao picked up a chopstick of vegetables and said with a smile, "It's okay, the main reason is that the place is closer to the place where my mother and eldest sister work, and there are city defense forces patrolling at night, so it's safer than here anyway."

Wei Rongxing sipped the shochu in the bowl little by little, and did not speak from the beginning to the end.

Although Yufang Street and Yaoshi Lane are named only as different streets and alleys, they are two completely different worlds in the outer city.

Moreover, he had heard about the houses on Yufang Street before when he was working. Every single-family house cost at least a few dozen taels of silver to buy, which is definitely a huge sum of money. payment.

At least it can guarantee the food and clothing of their family of four for several years.

As a result, everyone is still huddled in the small black room in Yaoshi Lane, eating bran and swallowing vegetables, and occasionally dare to get a meal of meat when they feel cruel. Brother Tao actually said directly that he bought a house on Yufang Street?
Wei Rongxing seemed to want to say something, but he couldn't utter a word, he just stared blankly at the room they lived in now.

Narrow and cramped, damp and dark.

That's all it has to offer.

But the sudden mention of moving house still gave him an illusory feeling like falling into a dream.

Wei Tao observed their reactions, couldn't help but smiled and said, "It's not too late, why not go for a walk after dinner, take a look at our new house, live there at night, don't have to come back here gone."

Wei Rongxing didn't come back to his senses until now, stared into Wei Tao's eyes and asked, "Brother Tao really bought a house?"

Wei Tao nodded.

"How much did it cost?"

"A few dozen taels of silver. Since I became an official disciple of the martial arts school, I have followed up with some tasks, and later became a steward, so I have made a lot of income."

"What task, is it dangerous?" Zheng Suyun asked.

"It's not dangerous. If it's really too dangerous, we won't do it." Wei Tao responded casually.

Wei Rongxing's face suddenly became serious, "Brother Tao said he became a steward, where did he become a steward?"

"The steward of the martial arts hall. The teacher saw that I was quick to do things, and I had read books and literature, and I was good at accounting. So I became the steward, arranging the daily affairs of the martial arts hall and purchasing materials, and managing the servants and cooks below."

"Brother Tao, the money you paid for the house won't be..." Wei Rongxing hesitated to speak.

Wei Tao smiled, "Where did father think, Master Zhou treated me well, how could I do such an outrageous thing?"

"That's good, that's good. According to what Brother Tao said, we'll go over to have a look at the newly bought house after dinner."

Wei Rongxing drank half a bowl of shochu in one gulp, his eyes turned red all of a sudden, and he was slightly hoarse and choked up when he spoke.
