Master of Rebirth

Chapter 82 The Knight

Before Xu Baichuan could think of a way, Wang Qi had already proposed to Dong Jue the decision to return to Pingyao County.

The two have been away from home for a long time, and the New Year is coming soon, it is time to go back.As soon as Wang Qi brought it up, Dong Jue readily agreed.

After greeting Chang'an, Wang Qi bid farewell to Wang Yao, and they set off.

Because there were two more girls, the journey was naturally very slow. In addition, Miao Sui hadn't been out much, so she was excited about everything she saw along the way. Dong Jue wanted to show her the local customs and natural scenery along the way. Even slower.When I returned to Pingyao County, it was more than half a month later.

The twelfth lunar month is about to enter, which is the busiest time for Gubaozhai.And Dong Chen, the eldest brother of the Dong family, also had an accident on the way out, and almost put his life on the outside.Now that the entire Dong family has lingering fears, and Wang Qi is not worried that Dong Jue will be sent to Shuzhong again by his ignorant sister, so she rests in the bamboo garden for a few days and generously releases Zhao Aman. I took a few days off and let him spend time with Mrs. Ma.

This day, just as Wang Qi got up, a servant came to report that Mrs. Wang and Li invited him back to Wang's house.

Since Wang Long's accident, Wang Qi's business has been smoother. At first, Mrs. Wang and Li said some sour words, thinking that Wang Qi had beaten Wang Long.It's a pity that seeing Wang Qi earning more and more money, even though Wang Li was not happy, her attitude softened a lot.

Wang Qi knew her grandma's bullying nature, so she didn't feel grateful to her for these insignificant overtures. She just moved out of the Wang family and minimized the number of times she met her.Mrs. Wang and Li knew that Wang Qi had opinions on her, so she didn't dare to provoke her at ordinary times. The grandfather and grandson almost acquiesced in the consensus that what is out of sight is the truth.It was very rare that Mrs. Wang and Li took the initiative to invite him like this.

After sending the boy away, Wang Qi asked Qi Zhong: "Grandma is looking for me today, but what happened at home?"

"Maybe it's because the second master and the second young master are back." Qi Zhong, who was serving at the side, said.

During this period of time, Wang Long has been busy seeking medical treatment everywhere, and Wang Qi has not seen him face to face for a long time, and he does not know whether his "lower" injuries have been healed.

Now that someone has been sent to invite him, even if he doesn't agree with his heart, he still hasn't broken his face, so he still has to take care of his face.Wang Qi changed her clothes and prepared to go back to Wang's house.

I met Wang Long, whom I hadn't seen for a long time, at Wang Li's Fushou Hall. Wang Qi saluted Wang Li in a regular manner, and said hello to Wang Long, and then sat alone and watched the grandparents and grandchildren reminiscing about the old days. .

Although Wang Long has become a useless person, he is still Wang Li's darling.Wang Qi looked coldly at Wang Lishi holding Wang Long's hand, crying with snot and tears, and hurriedly ordered the servants around him to take the ginseng, velvet antler and many precious supplements from her room Wang Long delivered them at home, as if those things didn't cost money.

After watching it for a long time, Wang Qi felt that it was really boring, so she was about to get up and leave.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth, Wang Lishi said coldly: "Your younger brother just came back, what will happen to you as an older brother sitting with you?"

Naturally, Wang Qi would not use excuses such as "there is still something to do in the store" and "busy". Although Wang Long often used these excuses to be lazy and play tricks, Mrs. Wang and Li were willing to listen.But if it was on him, Wang Lishi would only block him with negative words.This is called different grandsons have different fates.

"Seeing that Grandma and Second Brother have something to say, I won't bother you." Wang Qi smiled and said, "Besides, I haven't seen Second Uncle for a long time, so I just prepared some supplements and am going to visit Second Uncle."

Seeing that he was going to see Wang Feng, Wang Li's expression finally softened a little, and his tone was still cold, "You are still a little bit filial, and you know how to respect your second uncle. Go."

With Wang Li's approval, Wang Qi immediately withdrew, feeling that the air outside was unusually fresh.

Went to Wang Feng's place for a few simple greetings, declined their invitation to stay for lunch, and Wang Qi left the gate of Wang's house without looking back.

Wandering around the street with nothing to do, Wang Qi felt bored, so she went back to the bamboo garden.

As soon as he entered the door, Qi Zhong greeted him and said, "Young Master, Second Young Master Dong is here, waiting for you in the hall?"

"Dong Jue, why is he here at this time?" Handing the cloak to Qi Zhong, Wang Qi went to the main hall.

When Wang Qi came in, Dong Jue was sitting in the living room drinking tea. Seeing him, he smiled and complained: "Brother Qiongju, you are too mean. There is such a good garden, and I don't invite my brothers to come and play for two days."

After all, Dong Jue was the prodigal son who bought two kiln sisters for 500 taels of silver. Wang Qi thought that he would be scolded by his family and then locked up for a few days, but he didn't expect to sit here with a radiant face.Looking at his energetic appearance, it doesn't look like he was scolded just now, but it looks like something good is coming.

"How did you find this place?" Wang Qi asked as she sat down beside him with a smile.

"In the entire Pingyao County, who doesn't know that you, Mr. Wang, bought this broom star garden. I heard from Wang Sheng that now you only go back to the main house of the Wang family unless you have something to do, and spend the rest of your time here." Dong Jue leaned forward. Leaning over, he asked softly: "What's the matter, are you really going to draw a line with the Wang family, rely on yourself, and leave all the family property passed down from the Wang family to your second uncle and Wang Long?"

In fact, due to the disaster of the Wang family's last life, Wang Qi did have the heart to draw a clear line.Besides, he doesn't have much desire for money. In Wang Qi's opinion, it is enough to spend enough money.Now that Jia Fugui and Jia Min'er are dead, Wang Long has also received retribution, which is considered a great revenge.If Wang Long and Wang Feng are willing to be honest, he doesn't mind letting them go.As for Wang Lishi, as long as Wang Long and the others are unhappy, she will naturally be unhappy too, and there is no need to do anything else.

Naturally, Wang Qi couldn't say these words to Dong Jue, but said: "I moved here just for the sake of peace. Besides, there is third uncle at home, even if second uncle wants to monopolize the family property, grandma can't agree. "

"That's true." Wang Long nodded and said, "Anyway, your second uncle has been in the business field for so many years, and he is much more experienced than you. As long as the amount of money that should be given to you is not Just leave yours alone."

Wang Qi smiled and thought, the second uncle is also watching the dishes.It turned out that he was a pustule, and after his parents passed away, Wang Feng's allowance was always "short of catty and short of tael", which made his life difficult.But since Linglongzhai's business has improved, instead of delaying the monthly ration, it has been given more frequently, and it has never been missed.Bullying the soft and fearing the hard is the nature of people like the second uncle and the others.

Not wanting to continue this topic, Wang Qi turned around and said, "I heard something happened to Brother Dong Chen a few days ago, and the servants and servants who accompanied him didn't come back, and he paid a lot of money for it. What's going on? ?”

"Hey, don't mention it." Speaking of this thrilling incident, Dong Jue still looked scared, "Brother Qiongju, you don't know. Just a few days after we went to the capital, the elder brother also went out to do errands, and ended up on the way I met a group of robbers, who not only robbed them of their property, but also killed all the people accompanying them. Fortunately, I met a hero and fought fiercely with the robbers, which saved my elder brother’s life.”

Wang Qi frowned and said: "The government has been strict in the past few years, and the surrounding area is considered safe. It's not unusual to meet a thief or something on the road. How could you encounter such a rampant robber?"

In fact, Wang Qi's question is not unreasonable.The princes of Daliang Kingdom are all masters who can fight well, and it is no problem to smash the invasion of other countries, let alone a few reckless bandits who occupy the mountains as kings?There are several Marquis sitting in the township. The country of Daliang has been very stable in recent decades, and the business routes between them are also peaceful.Besides, the servants accompanying the Dong family were not vegetarians, and the result of losing their personal wealth was really unimaginable.

"It's not my sister who doesn't make people worry." Dong Jue showed a helpless smile on his face, "I don't know why she is obsessed with it. She asked me to go to Sichuan but failed, so she came to pester me every day. Parents, they are crying and making trouble. Parents don't want her to be sad, so they asked my elder brother to find a way. It happened that my elder brother was going to work in the southern Hubei area, and I don't know how my sister got the news, saying that southern Hubei was away from the middle of Sichuan. It’s near, so I have to ask him to make a detour. Who knows that something happened just because of these extra steps.”

Hearing what he said, Wang Qi understood.Central Sichuan is no different than the Central Plains. The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. The roads are difficult and dangerous, and there are many mountains and ridges.What's more, there is a dispute over the land boundary, and Tubo is eyeing it, and it has never been peaceful.The spark of the dispute between Daliang and Tubo in the previous life was also because Tubo secretly supported the bandits in central Shu to become big, recruited soldiers and bought horses, with unruly intentions, which angered the Emperor Daliang, which led to the war.

Wang Qixin said: "The terrain on the southwest side is inherently complicated, and it is far away from Pingyao County. Ordinary people know very little about it. Most merchants in Pingyao County don't necessarily know about the fact that southern Hubei is adjacent to central Sichuan. Miss Dong's family alone How could she know so clearly about a woman who never leaves her door? Her husband's videotaping and teasing must have been part of it.

Glancing at Dong Jue, Wang Qi didn't say much.It's really ignorant for Miss Dong's behavior to deceive her brother and her mother's family, but this is family affairs after all, so it's better for him, an outsider, not to open his mouth.After all, the Dong and Chen families are a family. If the bones are broken and the tendons are connected, they are still a family when they reconcile.Outsiders follow in and mix in blindly, and if they don't make it right, they will end up as inhumane.Besides, Dong Chen, the eldest of the Dong family, is not a good stump, and he, an outsider, can understand the reason for it, and it is impossible for Dong Chen not to know.He didn't need to bother to mention it.

"If you survive a catastrophe, you will have good fortune." Wang Qi said with a smile: "No matter what, Brother Dong came back unscathed. Heroic."

Dong Jue hurriedly said: "That's not true. I heard from my eldest brother that that benefactor's martial arts are very good. It's no problem to fight one against ten. It's like nothing to kill those robbers."

"So powerful, I don't know who that chivalrous man is?" Wang Qi also became interested.

Dong Jue said: "I don't know about this either. But Engong is at the mansion now, if Brother Qiongju wants to see him, I can introduce him for you."

"That chivalrous man is in your house now?" Wang Qi couldn't believe it.According to his understanding, it is common for people in Jianghu to fight against injustice, but they don't like to be involved with the government.Although the Dong family has no official background, they are businessmen full of copper smell.In the eyes of those unconstrained heroes, most of the businessmen are scheming and calculating things, which are incompatible with their bold personalities.

Dong Jue said: "The people around my elder brother are all dead, and benefactor was worried that there would be another accident on the road, so he took the initiative to send my elder brother back."

"Oh, so that's the case. This chivalrous man is really warm-hearted." Wang Qi said in his heart, seeing all the servants killed and almost going to the ghost gate, Dong Chen was already frightened, so naturally he wanted to hold the chivalrous man tightly My thigh, please protect me to the end.

Dong Jue continued: "Not only did he save my elder brother's life, but he also went all the way to send him home. We can't repay such a great kindness. Since he has already arrived in Pingyao County No matter what, our Dong family has to stay with him for a few days, so that we can fulfill the friendship of the landlord."

"You should treat people well." Wang Qi joked: "Besides, with such a martial arts master who can fight ten against one, ordinary thieves would never want to attack Dong's family."

Dong Jue said with a smile: "Looking at what brother Qiongju said, it seems that we have some intentions. We really just want to repay the favor."

"All right, all right, let's not talk about this, you are here today for business." Wang Qi took a sip of tea and changed the subject.

"I forgot the business." Dong Jue took out an invitation card from his sleeve, and solemnly handed it to Wang Qi, saying: "The sixth day of the twelfth lunar month is auspicious, and I want to take Miao Sui as my concubine. Although it will not be a big deal, but I still hope that the brothers can go over and hold a place."

Unexpectedly, Dong Jue actually married Miao Sui, and the Dong family also agreed.Seeing Dahong's wedding invitation, Wang Qi was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Congratulations, brother Wushuang, I will definitely go over to ask for a wedding wine."

"Same joy, brother Qiongju, seeing that the filial piety period of uncle and aunt is coming to an end, you have to hurry up. Brother, I am waiting to drink your wedding wine." Dong Jue laughed.
