Jianghu are all masters

171.

The three of them froze in place, and no one spoke for a while.

In just a short moment, more than a dozen ways to save his life flashed through Zhang Xiaoyuan's mind, including kneeling while hugging the elder brother's waist, twisting and acting like a baby with tears in his eyes, and biting his teeth to say that his father gave him the money.

But he thought about the amount of his father's private house money... He really couldn't come up with the last excuse.

Unexpectedly, the first person to speak was actually Jiang Jianyu.

"I've never seen so many bank notes..." Jiang Jianyu murmured, "Xiao Yuan, where did you get so much money?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan started talking nonsense: "My mother gave it to me!"

Jiang Jianyu: "This must be tens of thousands of taels, right? What did your mother give you so much money for?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan muttered: "Let...let me eat better."

He lowered his voice, the excuse was so false that even he himself would not believe it, he felt that he couldn't fool him today, but he never expected that the second senior brother would look amazed and envious, and sighed in his mouth: "The kid from the rich family is so kind."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

What's going on, the second senior brother actually believed it? !

After all, it is also the blood of the royal family, which is not comparable to the children of rich families. Why does the second senior brother seem to have never seen the world, and he is extremely surprised when he sees a box of silver notes, so that people can see through their poverty at a glance.

The second senior brother believed it, and the first senior brother should also believe it...

Zhang Xiaoyuan raised his head tremblingly, and looked at Lu Zhaoming who was half hugging him.

Lu Zhaoming still kept his original expression, frowning slightly, seeing Zhang Xiaoyuan looking at him, the two looked at each other, he asked just now: "Are you telling the truth?"

He looked into Zhang Xiaoyuan's eyes, Zhang Xiaoyuan was incoherent for a while, he hesitated for a long time, almost biting the bullet and said: "Yes...my mother gave it to me..."

But his voice was trembling, and he was so nervous that he was at a loss, almost revealing that what he said was a complete lie, and the money was definitely not given to him by his mother. If there is any doubt, it is inevitable that people will be vigilant.

Lu Zhaoming already understood: "Your mother didn't give you this money."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Lu Zhaoming: "Senior Mei?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan bit his lip, not knowing what to say.

The matter has come to this point, he has no excuses to make up things, but if he admits it directly, he can't find a reason for Melanian to give him money, Zhang Xiaoyuan is in a dilemma, at a loss, he can only bow his head, not to talk to Lu Zhaoming words.

Jiang Jianyu finally figured out what was going on. He pulled Lu Zhaoming's arm and said in a low voice, "Brother, this shouldn't be a big deal."

Lu Zhaoming and Jiang Jianyu said, "Put the money away first."

After he finished speaking, he took Zhang Xiaoyuan's arm and dragged him into the house.He was worried that there were too many people outside the door. If someone heard their conversation and told Lin Yi about it, Zhang Xiaoyuan would definitely be in danger. No matter what happened, they had better go back to the house to talk about it.

Jiang Jianyu was very satisfied with the task of picking up the money, he moved quickly, picked up the money all over the floor and put it away, and was afraid that Lu Zhaoming would teach Zhang Xiaoyuan that he was not serious, so he ran into the house quickly, and saw Zhang Xiaoyuan standing in front of Lu Zhaoming with his head bowed , as if muttering and admitting his mistake in a low voice.

Lu Zhaoming asked him: "Why did Senior Mei give you money?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan whispered, "Because I told him about Lin Yi..."

He was telling the truth, and he thought Lu Zhaoming would believe it.

"For such a small matter, he gave you nearly ten thousand taels of silver?" Lu Zhaoming raised his eyebrows slightly, "Okay, let me ask you again, did Senior Mei give you the money on his own initiative, or did you ask him for it?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan was stunned: "Eldest brother! How could I ask him for money!"

Jiang Jianyu hurriedly opened his mouth and spoke for Zhang Xiaoyuan, saying: "Brother, Xiao Yuan is not that kind of person."

"Even if Senior Mei gave it to you on his own initiative." Lu Zhaoming looked at Zhang Xiaoyuan seriously, and said, "A gentleman loves money, so get it in a proper way."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

This is also the hard-earned money he exchanged for his safety, so why not get it in a proper way.

Lu Zhaoming: "You know that you have violated the rules of the house."

Zhang Xiaoyuan was startled.

Huh?House rules?

Is that the one who only read a short section of the gate rules when Hualiuque entered the gate?

He hadn't even heard the full version of the door rules, so how could he know whether his current actions violated the door rules.

Besides, isn't he doing this all for the sake of his master and senior brother?

Zhang Xiaoyuan curled his lips and shook his head, feeling wronged in his heart.

Jiang Jianyu was sweating from panic, he just wanted to stop what Lu Zhaoming was going to say, and said: "Xiao Yuan is a first-time offender, so he should be taught a lesson, there is no need to ask for family rules."

Lu Zhaoming acted as if he had never heard: "What do the door rules say?"

Jiang Jianyu: "Eldest brother..."

Lu Zhaoming glanced at him coldly, Jiang Jianyu shut his mouth immediately, and read hastily: "Anyone who is greedy for property should be punished with a wooden stick and given thirty lashes."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

He worked hard for the master's school, but for no reason, the elder brother said that he had violated the school rules and wanted to beat him?

Zhang Xiaoyuan felt extremely wronged, and was extremely dissatisfied, bit his lip and bowed his head, furious and silent.

"Master is not here." Lu Zhaoming said softly, "Let me take charge of the sect."

Zhang Xiaoyuan was surprised.

No way?Big Brother is coming for real?

He looked at Jiang Jianyu as if asking for help, and saw that Jiang Jianyu was also very anxious, but he was at a loss, so he could only pull Lu Zhaoming and say: "Brother, Xiao Yuan is still young, and he is a first-time offender..."

Lu Zhaoming followed his words and said, "It's the first offense."

He stopped what he said later, stood up and went to the side, Zhang Xiaoyuan grabbed Jiang Jianyu's sleeve, looked at him with wide-eyed eyes, and said in panic: "Second Senior Brother, what should I do!"

Jiang Jianyu looked more panicked than him: "It's also the first time I've seen senior brother so angry, I don't know!"

Zhang Xiaoyuan felt that he was going to die.

The elder brother will definitely pull out a big wooden stick from the next room and come back to beat him.

Jiang Jianyu thought about it, and suddenly helped Zhang Xiaoyuan's shoulder: "Xiao Yuan! I have a way!"

Zhang Xiaoyuan nervously said: "What?"

"If he really hits you, you will cry." Jiang Jianyu said seriously, "Eldest brother is soft-hearted towards you. If you really cry, he will definitely be unable to do so."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

What a broken way!

He turned his head, and suddenly saw Lu Zhaoming coming back with a ruler.

ring... ring ruler...

Zhang Xiaoyuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and took the initiative to let go of Jiang Jianyu's hand.

When he was a child, he passed countless rulers in the private school, and he was really impressed by this. When he saw it, he felt chills in his heart, and immediately put his hands behind his back, and shrank behind Jiang Jianyu.

Jiang Jianyu was still protecting Zhang Xiaoyuan: "Brother, there is no need for this..."

Lu Zhaoming said: "Nian is the first offender, and I have reduced the punishment."

Jiang Jianyu: "But..."

"Jianyu." Lu Zhaoming asked him, "You want to be punished too?"

Jiang Jianyu: "..."

Jiang Jianyu immediately turned around and pushed Zhang Xiaoyuan out.

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Lu Zhaoming looked at him: "Stretch out your hand."

no solution anymore.

Up to now, Zhang Xiaoyuan felt that he could only use the second senior brother's method.

He slowly extended a hand.

Lu Zhaoming grabbed his wrist to prevent him from locking it back, and before he could squeeze out a tear, the ruler hit his palm hard, causing him to tremble with pain, and only then did he realize that the elder brother was real I didn't intend to be soft at all.

Zhang Xiaoyuan was stunned for a moment, his palms were burning and painful, but he couldn't express his grievances, but he completely forgot about the "method" that Jiang Jianyu told him.

When he heard Lu Zhaoming ask him if he knew he was wrong, he seemed to feel a great grievance in his heart, so he just gritted his teeth and said nothing. Anyway, he didn't think he was wrong, and he would never admit that he did something wrong.

He didn't admit his mistake, and naturally another ruler hit his palm, but this time it was not as hard as the first one. Lu Zhaoming was also afraid that he would really hurt him, and seeing Zhang Xiaoyuan bit his lip and his eyes were red, the third one was actually Withdraw some strength again.

Even so, Zhang Xiaoyuan's palms were still obviously red and swollen. Jiang Jianyu didn't dare to persuade Lu Zhaoming, and didn't know what to do, so he simply turned around to persuade Zhang Xiaoyuan to admit his mistake and apologize. To persuade him like this, he was of course even more annoyed, and finally his emotions collapsed. Qia Lu Zhaoming hit his palm again, and Zhang Xiaoyuan burst into tears, hitting Lu Zhaoming's hand, shouting loudly :"I am not wrong!"

Lu Zhaoming paused and raised his head when he heard Zhang Xiaoyuan say something again.

"I just want to buy a sword for senior brother." Zhang Xiaoyuan was really wronged, "What did I do wrong."

The ruler was raised to mid-air, but he couldn't hit it anymore. After a while, it fell lightly and touched his palm, but Lu Zhaoming still had a cold face, and said: "Thirty."

He jumped directly from seven or eight to thirty, Jiang Jianyu coughed, jumped up and ran to look for wound medicine without saying a word, leaving Lu Zhaoming alone to look at Zhang Xiaoyuan, a little at a loss, and said softly to him after a long while: " Have you ever thought about how many people you will offend and how many people will want to take revenge on you if you tell Meleng'an about Lin Yi?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan pouted, he didn't want to talk to Lu Zhaoming anyway.

Jiang Jianyu ran back with the ointment. He looked at Zhang Xiaoyuan's hand. Fortunately, the injury was not serious, and he would recover in a short time. When he unscrewed the ointment box, he saw Lu Zhaoming reaching out to him. hand, Jiang Jianyu paused for a moment, very puzzled, and asked: "Brother, you..."

Lu Zhaoming had already taken the ointment from his hand, and applied the ointment for Zhang Xiaoyuan himself.

Jiang Jianyu muttered in a low voice: "...Oh, I've already been beaten, it's too late to apologize now."

Lu Zhaoming glanced at him coldly.

Jiang Jianyu shut up.

He looked at Zhang Xiaoyuan again, stretched out his hand and touched Zhang Xiaoyuan's head, he had said a few words to comfort his junior, but suddenly another sentence came out of his mind.

"Xiao Yuan." Jiang Jianyu was very curious, "You said that you received the money to buy the sword for Senior Brother."

Zhang Xiaoyuan didn't cry before, but Fang shed tears, and now he was sniffling, listening to Jiang Jianyu's words, raised his head to look at him with tears in his eyes, and said with a nasal voice, "I won't buy it."

Lu Zhaoming: "..."

Jiang Jianyu coughed: "What about me?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan didn't understand what he meant.

Jiang Jianyu patted his chest, and asked expectantly: "You want to buy a sword for senior brother, so... how about me, second senior brother?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan was silent for a moment, then turned his head away, pretending that he didn't hear anything.

Jiang Jianyu's full face of anticipation disappeared in an instant.

Jiang Jianyu: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."
