Chapter 71 Mu Zhi seeks merit after being humiliated
Liu Yu frowned: "I'm going to your house at this time? We just had dinner and we can't eat anything now. Besides..."
At this point, Liu Yu hesitated, and Liu Muzhi laughed: "Why, do you think I got angry at the Jiang family and want to take it out on my wife when I get home?"
Liu Yu smiled and shook his head: "Of course you are not such a person, but this time your wife refused to even go to the wedding banquet. She obviously expected such a thing. At this time, she may also have heard today's news.
Come on, isn’t it inappropriate for me to be here as an outsider?”
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "No, it's very suitable, so suitable. I just want my wife to know that it is you Liu Yu, not her brother, who can go to the end with her husband.
A true friend. She is a young lady from a wealthy family, but she cannot look down on our brothers."
Liu Yu put away his smile and looked directly at Liu Muzhi: "Fat man, what kind of person do you think your wife is? Is she as snobbish as her two brothers?"
Liu Muzhi smiled confidently: "No, my wife Qianwen, she took a fancy to my talent and offered to marry me. Over the years, she has been by my side studying with me. I can see that.
, she really likes me as a person, her brother is her brother, but her knowledge is the same as that of my father-in-law."
Liu Yu nodded: "That's good. Fatty, if you take me to dinner, I'm afraid you also want to ask your wife to let you leave home to seek fame."
Liu Muzhi smiled and nodded: "Jinnu, others say you are a brave man, but only I know that your thoughts are very careful and you are by no means a fool. Now that I have seen it for you,
I'm not hiding it from you. Yes, that's what I think. Qianwen loves me very much and is reluctant to let me leave. If I don't drag you along and leave together, I'm afraid she won't agree."
"I was humiliated today, so I have a good excuse. From this point of view, the Jiang family brothers also helped me. Taking advantage of this momentum, I can ask Qianwen about leaving home to seek fame. I think,
She won't refuse, but this time I don't want her to misunderstand that I want to use her family's power to ask for an official position, so I have to rope you in."
Liu Yu breathed a long sigh of relief: "It seems that you have been thinking about this for a long time. Okay, fat man, I will help you this time, but I have something to say first. I can't leave home for a while, and I still need to arrange some things."
Walk."
Liu Muzhi frowned: "What do you mean, didn't I say yesterday that you can leave at any time?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "From what happened today, I feel more and more that seeking fame is not that easy. Just like you, if you want to join the army for nothing, can you really meet General Xie?"
Liu Muzhi was silent, his eyes sparkling, and he was lost in thought. Obviously, these words touched his heart, and it was also something he had been worried about.
Liu Yu sighed: "Although we have the status of scholars, our family status has long been in decline. For the past few generations, none of us have served as officials in the imperial court. In the eyes of those high-ranking families, we are no different from ordinary people."
.The Jiang family brothers have this attitude towards you today. There is no guarantee that General Xie or other high-ranking disciples will not have such thoughts. Therefore, in order to see them, we have to prepare some money."
Liu Muzhi frowned: "So you still have to continue gambling? This is an evil path and you cannot take it."
Liu Yu shook his head: "I know this is an evil path. This thing will make people addicted and become more and more inseparable, but there is no way. I need money, and you also need money. Whether it is the expenses of my family after we join the army, or the expenses of joining the army.
In order to meet General Xie, all the expenses needed were indispensable. Now I only have more than 3,000 yuan in hand. If I want to leave, I will need at least 7,000 yuan. Apart from gambling, what else can I do?
How to get money quickly?"
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "Gambling involves huge risks. No matter how rational a person is, he will lose his cool in that kind of environment. Not to mention that you don't have much gambling experience. You learned it all by yourself. Just like the same
Liu Yi, who has never gambled for money, may be able to play with He Wuji and the others, but if he meets a real master or a crook, he will probably lose miserably."
Having said this, Liu Muzhi paused and said thoughtfully: "Besides, this casino is opened by Tianshi Dao. I always feel something is wrong. They have many believers in various places and receive many donations.
, there is no way to make money by opening a casino. There must be some conspiracy in this."
Liu Yu shook his head disapprovingly: "What kind of conspiracy can there be in this? It's just because those northern refugees like this kind of game, so Tianshi Tao just goes along with it. We Jingkou people because of the last rebellion by Lu Wei,
I hate Tianshi Tao so much that they can use this method to regain our trust."
Liu Muzhi curled up his lips and said, "I hope I'm over-worrying, but Ji Nu, you'd better think about it carefully. Maybe you don't need anything to take care of when you see General Xie."
Liu Yu smiled and patted Liu Muzhi on the shoulder: "Fat man, you are just a nerd and don't know anything about this world. General Xie may be thirsty for talents, but the king of hell is easy to meet, and the devil is difficult to deal with. He is a high-ranking official."
, you are in the mansion, the gatekeeper, how do you live? How do you let them go and report it? "
Liu Muzhi gritted his teeth: "This time is different from the past. General Xie is recruiting talents to resist the Qin army's march south. I don't think anyone will dare to refuse me."
Liu Yu sighed: "It is precisely because we are recruiting talented people from all directions, both capable and incompetent cats and dogs will run over. General Xie will not be able to see everyone even if he is sleepless. Then you won't
Take care of the gatekeepers outside and the people who report the news. If they put you in line for ten days and a half, you will basically have no chance of doing this."
At this point, Liu Yu paused: "I have been a Li Zheng for the past two years, and I know more or less about the affairs in the yamen. Even in Jingkou, there are still some favors and filial piety, let alone General Zhenbei.
The house is ready. Okay, fat man, let’s not talk about this for now. I will consider this matter again and go to your house for a drink first.”
Liu Muzhi's brows relaxed: "Yes, there is a lot of things to do when you are drunk, and you can solve a thousand worries once you are drunk. Let's talk about it after you finish drinking."
Liu Yu looked at the sky. It was past midnight and the sky was gradually getting dark. He nodded: "Okay, it won't be too late. Let's go to your house for dinner. After finishing the wine, I have to go back early."
If I really don’t want to gamble, I’ll have to borrow some money from others. Maybe Brother Tan can help me.”
