Martial arts immortality, I will eventually be invincible
Chapter 44: Invisible Killing
The beholder is clear.
Du Fuzi agreed with Chen Guanlou's suggestion that he should fight for himself. You can't just say nothing and be fired by the second master.
These days it is easier said than done.
It would also be extremely difficult to find an easy job like a private school in the Hou Mansion, where there is plenty of money and no responsibility, in such a huge capital city.
There are many students and the competition is fierce.
He was quite old, and he didn't want to compete with young scholars for a job worth twenty taels of silver a month. He couldn't afford to lose face.
If the errands of the Marquis Mansion can be preserved, then try to preserve them as much as possible.
Even if he can't be saved, it would be good to have the big boss come forward and introduce him to the next job.
After Du Fuzi had an idea, he felt relaxed.
He asked Chen Guanlou:
"Have you never thought about going to the Marquis Mansion to meet relatives? Working as an errand in Tianlao is not a long-term solution after all."
Chen Guanlou smiled and said: "Thank you, Mr. Du, for worrying about me. Tianlao job is actually a cheap job, I knew it from the beginning. However, it is true that Tianlao makes more money. I need Tianlao job now. I just want to do a good job.”
Du Fuzi looked at him with complicated eyes, "If you want to change your job, you are not short of money now. You can still do it by looking for connections with the Hou Mansion. If you dare not say anything else, the Hou Mansion will come forward and you will pay. , it will definitely be no problem to find a ninth-grade sesame official for you."
Chen Guanlou laughed and laughed, "Does the Hou Mansion like me? I've been out of the fifth server for a long time. I'm licking my face for fear of being stepped on."
"A man can bend and stretch, so what does it mean to be a little bitch once in a while? Besides, this is your family, not an outsider. When you meet the old lady, you must not kneel down to say hello!"
What Du Fuzi said was true. It is better to kneel to one's own family than to kneel to outsiders. After all, you are treated as a grandson, and there is no shame in being a grandson to your own family.
Chen Guanlou shook his head repeatedly, "Forget it, I'll still stay in Tianlao. I have no idea of changing to another government office for the time being."
"Even if you don't change the yamen, you should still have a good relationship with the Hou's Mansion." Du Fuzi analyzed with him: "In the past, when your family was in trouble, it was right not to go to the Hou's Mansion to irritate you. Now that you have money, you should start to make serious purchases. , find a way to resume contact with the Hou Mansion. I don’t ask the Hou Mansion to help you. I just ask that when you encounter difficulties, others will give you three points of support and help you because you are a descendant of the Hou Mansion. It’s convenient. Do you think this is true?”
Chen Guanlou nodded. He agreed with Du Fuzi's statement, but he was not so willing in his heart. I had enough of being a turtle grandson in my previous life to please customers, but I really don’t want to continue to be a turtle grandchild in this life.
However, you don’t necessarily need to be a turtle grandchild.
When dealing with the stewards of the Hou Mansion, all you need to do is spend enough money, and everyone is a good brother. When something happens, with these stewards around, he can pull off the tiger's skin and make it a big banner.
If the steward of the Hou Mansion is not effective, then even if he goes to the three masters of the Hou Mansion, it will not be of any use. It is impossible for the three masters to stand up for him. Unless he can offer a large sum of money, at least a thousand taels of silver to start with, people may be reluctant to help him.
"Master Du is right. However, the Hou Mansion is in chaos right now. Even if I want to curry favor, I have no clue. If I curry favor with the first bedroom, the second and third bedrooms will definitely be dissatisfied. If I curry favor with the second bedroom, the first bedroom may hold a grudge." It’s hard! I heard that the stewards of the Hou Mansion are divided into several factions.”
Du Fuzi stroked his beard and said, "I was invited by the eldest master. I can only walk all the way to the end and follow the eldest master firmly. As for you, it depends on what you want. At the moment, the second wife is in charge of the house and does not consider the long term. Naturally, he wanted to curry favor with the second wife. Most of the stewards in the Hou Mansion also chose this.
If we think about it in the long run, Dafang is the heir to the Hou Mansion, so he should be ingratiated with him in advance to ensure his safety. The old lady is getting older, her health is getting worse every year, and she will die one day. By then, the Hou Mansion will face separation. No matter how much you fight for the second house, you can't win the big house. Sooner or later, you will have to move out of the Hou Mansion. "
Chen Guanlou nodded repeatedly, Du Fuzi's analysis was reasonable and well-founded.
But he uttered a shocking sentence, "If the first house has no descendants, the second house will be able to win."
When Master Du heard this, he froze immediately and his face gradually turned pale.
He quickly put down his wine glass, burped, and said anxiously: "This is not the kind of nonsense you're saying."
Chen Guanlou picked up a piece of peanuts and said while eating, "Am I really talking nonsense? Taking a detailed look at what happened in the Hou Mansion in the past few years and the situation of the big house, Master Du really thinks it is God's will?"
"What do you mean by this? Xiaolou, you can drink this wine indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense. Trouble comes from the mouth, remember this!" Master Du was so nervous that he wanted to stuff Chen Guanlou's mouth with something.
Chen Guanlou chuckled, "The eldest lady is in poor health and stays in bed all year round taking medicine. I thought she was really weak. As a result, the eldest mistress is also weak and takes medicine all year round. Both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not in good health. They are both sick. Yangzi, what a coincidence! Master Du is well-informed about this kind of thing, has he ever seen it in other wealthy families? The eldest master has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. He went out hunting and broke his leg. Haha... This family is really unlucky. Only the eldest son is still absent from the house all year round..."
In the middle of winter, Master Du broke out in a cold sweat for no apparent reason.
"This is not nonsense. I don't know what is going on with the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. However, I do know that the eldest gentleman broke his leg. It is said that the eldest gentleman went out hunting with other distinguished gentlemen. He was so happy with his achievements and greedy for them. I didn’t realize that I was older and my body was not as good as my youth, so I fell off the horse. It was a simple accident!”
"People's hearts usually show up in unexpected forms. This is the truth I learned in Tianlao." Chen Guanlou said with a smile.
"If it was man-made, the eldest master would not be able to find it out." Master Du bit his back teeth and said this heavily.
Chen Guanlou nodded, "Just treat it as an accident. The first wife is too unlucky. Everything goes wrong. It's either illness or disaster. If the first wife is extinct one day, I won't be surprised at all."
"You, you... The father and son of the second wife don't have such ability. Don't talk nonsense anymore."
"The second wife doesn't have this ability, but the old lady in the Marquis' Mansion may not have such ability." Chen Guanlou picked up the wine glass and drank it lightly, smiling and saying, "I am a member of the Chen family. I have heard about how the old lady of the Marquis' Mansion got the position when she was young. This is not a big secret in the family."
Now this old lady in the Marquis' Mansion is a concubine. When the old Marquis died of his original wife, he planned to marry a second wife, and he was interested in the old lady's eldest sister. I don't know what happened in the middle, anyway, the eldest sister was eliminated and married far away, and never returned to the capital in her life. Her family was unwilling to give up the marriage with the Marquis's Mansion, so they registered the old lady under the name of the eldest mother, regarded as the eldest daughter, and married the old Marquis as a concubine instead of the eldest sister who was eliminated.
At that time, the old lady was only a teenager, but she was able to turn the tide and marry into the Marquis's Mansion as a proper wife. How many people can compare with such skills?
After decades, the old lady's methods are probably more and more perfect, and have reached the point of killing people invisibly. What swordsmen and warriors are weak in front of her.
