The years when I was an old man

There is only a little more than a week left before Zheng Ruhuan's Golden Basin washing ceremony.

When I returned to Rongcheng, I thought hard about how to get the money back.

And I made plans one after another, but I was overthrown one by one by myself.

As the second master of the Gelaohui, it is impossible to start with his family.

Now there is only one way to convince him to repay the money, and that is Huo Yuhan, the elder brother of the Gelaohui.

But the uncle doesn't gamble, and he rarely shows up on weekdays.

In addition, he is the number one member of the Gelaohui, so trying to set up a trap for him is simply a fantasy.

I even had the despicable thought of taking advantage of Xiaoduo's life experience to make an exchange with him.

The thought was only fleeting in my mind.

I would rather not take over all of Zheng Ruhuan's affairs, and I will never do anything to hurt Xiaoduo.

In the evening, a few of us went to the downstairs restaurant for dinner.

As soon as he got out of the elevator, he saw Seven of Diamonds and the mute standing at the door.

As soon as Master Hong and I were going out, the mute pointed to the outside and said stammeringly:

"w, w, there are many outside..."

Before the mute could finish speaking, Diamond Seven interrupted him dissatisfied.

"The stuttering ones are quite willing to grab the conversation. Little Sixth Master, there seem to be some new faces outside. It seems that they are all from the Jianghu..."

Master Hong and I walked over immediately, and through the revolving door, we saw that there were indeed some more people outside.

These people gathered in groups of three or five.

Some were chatting in whispers, and some were smoking cigarettes in boredom.

As I was watching, I saw a Mercedes-Benz parked at the door.

As soon as the car door opened, Xiao Lu accompanied Zheng Ruhuan and got out of the car.

At this time, Zheng Ruhuan's face was serious, and he could feel that he was in a bad mood.

After entering the hotel, Zheng Ruhuan saw me and said directly:

"Find a place and say a few words!"

As he spoke, he looked around.

Seeing that there was no one in the lobby bar, the two of us walked over directly.

After choosing a seat by the window and sitting down, Zheng Ruhuan said:

"On the sixth day of the lunar new year, the second master contacted me today and asked me to hand you over. Naturally, I didn't agree. He was a little annoyed. I was afraid that he knew you were here, so I sent some people over to prevent accidents!"

It turned out that the manpower outside was sent by Zheng Ruhuan.

"What else did he say?"

I asked a question.

Zheng Ruhuan looked dignified, and said angrily:

"This second master is a little too deceptive. He said that if I don't hand over people, he will personally lead people to arrest you on the day I wash my hands in the golden basin. To put it bluntly, he just wanted me to interfere with my ceremony. I think Well, three days later, Tang Lang from the Rong family will pass the teacher ceremony, and I will be able to see Huo Yuhan, the elder brother of the elder brother's association, and this second master. When the time comes, I will ask this elder. Is this the second master of your elder elder brother's association who bullies people? Big deal , I will tear our skins off with Brother Elder!"

I could feel that Zheng Ruhuan was really angry this time.

You know, the Gelaohui has great influence in Bashu.

Zheng Ruhuan, who is not a Ran Dao, can be compared.

It's just that I'm not interested in Zheng Ruhuan's anger, but in Tang Lang's teacher passing ceremony.

Although he is a heretic, but the rules of Rongmen are quite a lot.

Just like "Passing the teacher's ceremony", it refers to the new local thief king, once he has been in power for six years.Regardless of whether the master is present or not, the teacher ceremony must be held.

It is used to tell fellow Jianghu that he is a person who respects teachers and respects morality.

As for Tang Lang, Niu Lao's disciple, I met him once when I was in Bashu last time.

For his "passing the teacher's ceremony", I don't know if Mr. Niu will show up.

Looking at Zheng Ruhuan, I asked curiously:

"Mr. Zheng, do you mean that the elders of the Gelaohui will definitely attend Tang Lang's teacher passing ceremony?"

Zheng Ruhuan nodded immediately.

"Yes, the Gelaohui, as the largest power in the rivers and lakes in Bashu, is still very considerate in etiquette. Besides, the power of Rongmen is not small. You must know that the two most important gates in the Jianghu are the most important ones, and the other is the most important one. It's the Rong family. Once the important family offends them, they are like a dog's skin plaster, and they can't be shaken off. And once they are missed by the Rong family, it will be like flying dogs, you never know what they will steal from you..."

I am absolutely convinced of this.

Seeing that I was silent, Zheng Ruhuan immediately asked:

"On the sixth day, you don't want to attend Tang Lang's teacher passing ceremony, do you?"

I nodded.

Zheng Ruhuan, on the other hand, looked troubled.

"The teacher's ceremony is not a grand banquet, but an invitation system. There are only 36 [-] invitations, and the invitations have been sent out now. Without invitations, no one can get in. Even the girl named Xiaoduo, probably You can't go in. Unless you contact Mr. Niu, but the old man can't see the end, and no one knows where he ran away..."

"It's okay, I have a solution!"

There are many rounds like this, and you can't think of a plan without thinking about it.

But an occasional little thing may make you feel bright and inspired.

After chatting with Zheng Ruhuan for a few words, he suddenly said:

"Oh, by the way, there is one more thing I forgot to tell you. Ms. Qi Lan from Haojiang, she will come in the next two days. The relationship between the two of you seems to be pretty good, right?"

Qi Lan?

I was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help but look out the window.

When I met Qi Lan, it seemed to be this season.

I can still clearly remember Qi Lan's appearance when the two of us were together for the first time.

There was a bit of rosiness on her fair face.

There was a bit of shyness in her charming expression.

Sometimes I really want to torture myself, what kind of feelings do I have for Qi Lan?

But every time I have this thought, I immediately interrupt myself.

I admit, when it comes to relationships, I'm a coward.
