Lord: Start with a book of Water Margin

Chapter 40 Concubine Tao Zongwang

After everyone ate the braised meat, they felt a burst of heat on their bodies, and the wine sobered them up a bit. I rearranged the plate and ate again.

Ruan Xiaoqi said: "Although this place is only a hundred miles away from us, our fate is shallow and we have never met each other. The three of us brothers love to meet heroes the most, and it turns out that we are only here."

He picked up the bowl and bowed again. Guanghui returned the bow again. He only left after eating until he was very drunk.

Zhao Zhen returned to the main room drunkenly, and was helped by a free servant to fall asleep. Tonight, there were a few people who were either excited or uneasy and couldn't sleep for a long time.

Li Gu coughed badly at night and leaned on the kang, half-lying, coughing from time to time. Two of the remaining eight apprentices were left to wait on him, while the other six went home. Today it happened that Tang Shu brought an apprentice to serve him.

When Zhao Yuanli knocked on the door, the two of them were about to go to bed. When they heard the knock on the door, they got up quickly. They heard that it was Zhao Yuanli, the steward. One opened the door quickly, and the other went to ask for the master Li Gu.

Zhao Yuanli did not hesitate, opened the food box, took out a bowl of fish, and said to Li Gu: "Master Li, this is a spiritual thing buried in the mud. This bowl can strengthen your mental power. Today, the owner of the village has obtained this thing. Let's It's ready in the kitchen and I'll deliver it overnight."

In addition to teaching apprentices these days, Li Gu also started making bone carvings himself. During the day, he polished the aggregates and inhaled some bone powder. At the same time, he was a little tired and felt even more uncomfortable at night.

Li Gu was like this because he still had worries in his heart, fearing that he would not be able to show his value and would be kicked out again. Now seeing the bowl of spiritual fish meat that Zhao Yuanli took out, he felt excited and coughed even more violently.

Tang Shu quickly stepped forward and stroked his back, which relieved him a little. He asked Tang Shu to take the bowl from Zhao Yuanli's hand and said, "Thank you to the owner of the village. I will not do what I want for the rest of my life. I will only serve the owner of the village."

After hearing this, Zhao Yuanli nodded slightly and said with a hint of envy: "If you eat it while it's hot, you can go to work earlier and get rid of the sick." After that, without waiting for Li Gu's reaction, he went out.

Zhao Yuanli went to Sun Zhengchu and Brother Yun again to give the spirit fish, and also talked about the benefits of Zhao Zhen, which made Sun Zheng and Brother Yun express their gratitude. Brother Yun even became red-eyed and shed tears on the spot, saying frankly that he met Zhuang Lord, the blessings gained through cultivation in three lifetimes.

The last person to go was Bai Duo, who lived in the village. Zhao Yuanli knocked on Bai Duo's door and deliberately shouted: "Mr. Bai, please get up and discuss something." After a short wait, Bai Duo got up and opened the door. Door.

Bai Li, Bai Zhang, and Bai Zhi were also quarreled. Zhao Yuanli said: "Mr. Bai, the owner of the village got some spiritual fish today. I heard that eating these fish can strengthen your spirit. He asked me to bring them to Miss Bai."

After saying that, without looking at the reactions of the four members of the Bai family, he took out the fish from the food box, put it into Bai Duo's hands, cupped his hands, and said goodbye.

The four members of the Bai family were left standing outside the door, looking at each other. After a while, Bai Duo finally spoke: "Come in, everyone." The four of them sat down and stared at the bowl of spiritual fish meat in the middle, not knowing how to speak.

It was Bai Li who said: "The first male is married, the female is married. This is a major event in the human cycle. It is the gift of the Wuchang. Zhi'er is always older. The owner of Zhaozhuang is also young and promising, and has a broad family business. If the owner of the village is really interested, he will be considered a good match, and my family will be considered a high achiever."

Bai Duo said: "You are ignorant. How can this person from the upper realm of Zhuang Zhuang be willing to marry Zhi'er? I'm afraid she can only be a concubine."

"This..., what should I do? It's all foggy around here. There's nothing I can do. Even if I walk, I don't know where to go." Bai Li said.

Bai Zhang was speechless.

Seeing the sad look on Bai Duo's face, Bai Li explained again: "As the saying goes, it is better to be a heroic concubine than a mediocre wife. I am afraid there is no one in Xixi Village who can compare with the owner of the village." As he said it, he looked at it. He asked his daughter Bai Zhi, "Daughter, what do you think?"

Bai Zhi blushed, looked at the three of them shyly and said, "Father, mother, brother, there is no need to worry. As mother said, Zhuangzhu Zhao's son is handsome, and it is not an insult to his daughter." After that, he hurried back. Go to your own room.

The three of them were left in a mess. Bai Duo said with a dark face: "Humph, you can't stay in college if you are a female student." After saying that, he went back to his room angrily.

Bai Li said to Bai Zhang: "Da Lang, I will go and inform Manager Zhao tomorrow that my family agrees. The agreed date is just that, but there is one thing to explain. A real wife does not dare to expect that, but she must be a good concubine." Then, he picked up the fish on the table and went to Bai Zhi's room.

Zhao Zhen was drinking happily. He didn't know that he had a good concubine for nothing, just because he glanced at her twice.

The next day, Zhao Zhen got up a little late and still went to the east courtyard to build up his strength and practice some martial arts.

While having breakfast, Zhao Yuanli came to report that there was a good man outside the door with many refugees. Zhao Zhen threw down the bowls and chopsticks and hurried out of Zhuangzi.

I glanced at it and saw a short, six-foot-five-six-foot man standing in front of him, carrying a large shovel. Behind him were more than a hundred men and women, all dressed in ragged clothes and looking disheveled. There are a few in the middle who are decorated.

Zhao Zhen said: "Quickly ask Mr. Bai to bandage the injured person."

Zhao Zhen walked down the steps, cupped his hands and said, "May I ask what the strong man is called? And how did he bring so many people to this place?"

The man replied: "The villain Tao Zongwang is from Guangzhou. He comes from a farmer family and is used to using a shovel. He has a lot of strength and can also wield a spear and a knife. Therefore, people call the villain a nine-tailed turtle."

Poems as proof:

He is short in stature and has a dark complexion. He dares to dig into the foundation of Mount Tai with a shovel.

Tao Zongwang, a villager in Guangzhou, was strangely known as the Nine-tailed Turtle.

"There was a drought in the villain's hometown, and the government did not provide any relief, but still had to collect taxes. We had no choice but to abandon our homes and businesses. We heard from the village owners that they were looking for talented people, so we brought many villagers to join us. Along the way After many hardships, there are still more than 200 people. I hope the owner of the village will take me in." After saying this, he bowed down, and the victims behind him also bowed down together, and Zhao Zhen hurriedly helped him.

He said: "A good man brings people to vote, so he has to accept them." He immediately asked everyone to help him sit down and rest under the shade of a tree. He also asked for hot water and ordered the kitchen to cook porridge.

Zhao Zhen was talking with Tao Zongwang. Four people from the Bai family came in a hurry for diagnosis and treatment with treasure boxes in hand. Angelica dahurica snorted at Zhao Zhen as they passed by.
