Chapter Forty-Eight: The Secret Letter Succeeds

Holding the jade Buddha box casually in his armpit, Wu Zheng went to his father's bedroom.

His father was not there, so he listened to the people and went to the ancestral hall.

Wu Zheng changed his route to the ancestral hall.

As soon as he entered the ancestral hall, Wu Zheng saw his father and Wu Xiaomei offering incense to Wu Zhifan.

This hard-mouthed and soft-hearted old man.

Looking at Wu Zhenglai, Wu Xiaomei happily greeted her, "Brother, it's been two days since I came back, and I only saw you once, and my father has been talking to you several times." ”

Yo, it was an accident.

Before Wu Zheng could grin, Father Wu said, "It's okay, it's good for him to die outside." ”

These words were really ugly, and Wu Zheng could only pretend not to hear them.

He said to Father Wu: "Dad, the child wants to discuss something with you today. ”

Father Wu said angrily: "What are you discussing?" It's good that you call your own shots. Folks, you just come to the door to ask for a shop, why do you want to kill people? Why do you want to knock on the bamboo pole of the Chen family? Dad has no ability, and he has taught you the way of sages for thirteen years, which is far less than what you have been fooling around outside for three years. Now that you have become an official, you have a long ability, and you dare to use a knife against the villagers, and you have lost all the face of the Wu family. Why did I give birth to such a wicked beast as you? ”

The more Daddy Wu spoke, the more excited he became, and pointed to Wu Zheng for a lesson.

Fortunately, Daddy Wu is a person who has read the books of sages and sages, so he didn't explode foul language.

Wu Zheng hurriedly defended: "Dad, the Chen family and Erhuang colluded to seize my Wu family's property, what's wrong with me going to ask for it?" ”

"You just want to come back, why do you need to use the knife, and why do you need to rip off the bamboo? Although the old man of the Chen family likes to take advantage of a little advantage on weekdays, he is not a hexatable person after all, and your father set this family affair for you in the early years, and the two families are still in-laws, you are so reckless, how do I face the villagers? ”

"That's the knife that Chen Bingshen ordered the nursing home to move to the child first. Is the child going to be killed by Chen Bingshen? Dad said that the two families are in-laws, but when Chen Bingshen occupied our shop, did he ever think that the two families were in-laws? ”

Father Wu was a little shocked when he heard this, "Master Chen will make people use knives against you?" ”

"No, everyone present can testify. Don't hide it from my father, when the child went, he wanted to get the shop back and knock out some money and food, and he really didn't plan to kill anyone. ”

"You...... Are you embarrassed to say? Read all the sage books you read since you were a child...... Go? Daddy Wu blew his beard and glared, "I've always taught you to convince people with virtue, do you understand to convince people with virtue?" ”

Wu Zheng hurriedly stepped forward and stroked the old man's back, for fear that he would be angry.

"Dad, the child remembers your teachings and remembers the ways of the sages, but now is a troubled time, if you really want to follow the script, the child will not know how many times he has died. There is a way that although the Buddha is benevolent, he also has a head to drink. It is true that we should be merciful to the good, but we can only fight evil with the wicked...... Belch! ”

Wu Zheng explained in a good voice, but he didn't expect that Daddy Wu became more and more angry the more he listened.

"Okay, you evil animal, you won't come back for three years, come back and teach your father a lesson? Did you teach your father? Little sister, please family law, I will smoke you to death today. ”

Fortunately, Wu Xiaomei saw the opportunity quickly, and stepped forward to support Daddy Wu, "Daddy, my brother's injury is not healed yet, and if the old creation is moved, what should it be?" ”

It's really spiritual, Daddy Wu was stunned for a long time, and he no longer asked for family law.

However, a sentence came out of the air, "Then remember, when the injury is healed, we will smoke together." ”

Wu Zheng secretly compared his thumb to Wu Xiaomei, but Wu Xiaomei gave Wu Zheng a fierce look.

Father Wu said: "Little sister, help Dad go back, don't take care of this evil animal, look at him more, and Dad will live many days less." ”

Wu Zheng hurriedly stopped: "Dad, the child really has something to discuss with you." ”

Father Wu replied angrily: "What's the matter?" ”

"That's right. Dad, the Zhuangzi, the shop, and the fields have been recovered, and the child wants to ...... Giving the fields and shops to the people brought by the children to cultivate, for the sake of these people who have fled their homes, my father will collect some rent for the past three or two years. I don't know what my father wants? ”

Daddy Wu's eyes widened, "I'm not dead yet." The Wu family can't call the shots for you! ”

Wu Zheng thought that his father was unwilling, and said hurriedly: "Dad, I have already promised His Highness the prison country, and His Royal Highness also specially gave 2,000 taels of private property to settle the people. Father...... I've already boasted about Haikou, saying that my father is anxious and righteous, and he is kind and charitable, can you let the child lose face? ”

With the support of Wu Xiaomei, Father Wu ignored Wu Zheng and walked towards the door.

When passing by Wu Zheng's side, he also pushed Wu Zheng.

Wu Xiaomei gave Wu Zheng a look and said, "Dad, my brother is also compassionate, this is the most like Dad." ”

Daddy Wu said in a sullen voice: "What's the matter?" Since I was a child, I haven't seen him look like me at all, he has been selected for the show, he doesn't read good books, he wants to join the army, and he almost can't come back. This time, I became a robber and murdered people, I have been guilty of several lifetimes, and I gave birth to such a brute! ”

Wu Xiaomei laughed and said: "Brother is young and frivolous, in fact, his heart is the best, otherwise, how could he hand over the Wu family silently and shop to those people in distress?" Isn't this an elephant father? ”

Daddy Wu was said to be like drinking a bowl of chilled bayberry soup in the hot summer, full of ironing.

He stood at the door, didn't look back, and dropped a sentence, "If you do good deeds, don't hide it, and what rent do you charge?" Silently and the shop for five years, our Wu family is not short of these two mouthfuls of food. ”

Wu Zheng was overjoyed when he heard this, "Thank you so much, Dad." ”

"Thank you." Father Wu said angrily, "Even if there is something wrong with Master Chen, the girl of the Chen family is still good-hearted, don't be embarrassed for the Chen family in the future." ”

"Alas...... Listen to Daddy. Wu Zheng hurriedly replied.

Seeing Wu Xiaomei helping her father to leave, Wu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.

In two days, the houses of the people by the sea should be built.

Half of the people are to be settled in the fields and in the shops.

Without his father's nod, Wu Zheng really didn't dare to make his own decisions.

Well, it's finally a big rock on the ground.

At this time, Xiao An came to report: "Li Ruhai is here." ”

Li Ruhai came in with a gloomy face.

Let Wu Zheng feel a sigh in his heart, didn't the thing work out?

"Catch your head, but there was an accident?"

Li Ruhai calmed his face and shook his head.

took out a letter from his chest that had already been opened, but instead of handing it to Wu Zheng, he held it in his hand.

"Do you really want to see it?"

Wu Zheng faintly felt that something was wrong.

"This official is not a person who gives up halfway, so he naturally wants to see it."

"Do you know to whom this letter is written?"

"I don't know until I see it."

Li Ruhai pursed his lips and said: "I advise my lord, it's better not to look at it." ”

Wu Zheng took a deep breath, stretched out his hand, and snatched the letter from Li Ruhai's hand.

Li Ruhai sighed and sat on the threshold of the ancestral hall, "My lord, it is a great disaster to see it, and I regret it now." ”

Wu Zheng ignored him and pulled out the letter.
