Chapter 131
A good son-in-law
The luminous cup of grape wine reminds you immediately if you want to drink Pipa.
In front of Zhou Yang's eyes, it seemed that he had returned to five years ago.
He followed his mother to the Zhaixing Tower to entertain guests.
Miss Lin grew up in the border area and did not have many close friends in the capital.
The only people who could allow Miss Lin and the third wife of the Zhou family to entertain guests on the top floor of the Star-Zhaing Building were, apart from the soldiers of the Lin family, only two or three ladies from the capital, all of whom were husbands or father-in-laws in the family and who could speak well in the court.
After his mother died, except for the Lin family who went to the capital to take him back to the border, none of the ladies who had been close to Miss Lin met.
"I remember that when Zhou Laosan built the Star Building, he hired people from the Ministry of Works. This time we also hired people from the Ministry of Works. When it is completed, I want to..." Zhou Yang paused for a moment and did not continue.
He thought of something, "But the name Zhaixing Tower is not very auspicious. Let's change it and call it Yao Yue Tower. The stars are vast, but they are not as bright as the bright moon!"
Sihai believed that he was much stronger than Wuhu in terms of character. At this moment, his scalp could not help but feel numb. After a long while, he responded: "Yes."
The Star Picking Tower in Beijing is the tallest building on Hongwu Road in Beijing. It has cornices and arched tiles. It was built with the drawings of Zhou Zongyi himself and was given as a wedding gift to his wife, the eldest daughter of the Lin family.
This is a symbol of the love between the eldest daughter of the Lin family and Zhou Zongyi. Many young men and women in the capital will come to Zhaixinglou when they are first in love. If you meet Qiao Zong, Zhaixinglou is open to welcome guests, and you can go in and take a look.
Walk.
That couldn't be better.
It is said that if you go to Zhaixinglou, you will definitely get a happy marriage. From then on, the couple will love each other and grow old together.
Who would have expected that five years ago, the eldest daughter of the Lin family would burn herself and the Star-Zhaing Tower together, which would also destroy the world's yearning for a beautiful marriage.
Sihai still remembers the first time he met his master five years ago.
The half-grown boy, completely living up to his former pride, huddled up under the quilt, breathless, and so thin that only a handful of bones remained.
At that time, Zhaixing Tower had been burned down, and the news of the eldest lady's death reached the border. The general was furious, but he could not return to Beijing due to his status, so he had to send Mr. Zhu to lead him and Wuhu and others back.
It was Mr. Zhu who used a silver needle to stay in the master's room without sleep for three days and finally saved the master's life.
He also took the general's handwriting and took his master to the border regardless of falling out with Mr. Zhou.
How could Mr. Zhou tolerate his only legitimate son being taken to his uncle's house in Bianguan to be raised?
Even if he doesn't like this son now, Zhou Yang is still his only legitimate son, who he has cared for and raised since childhood.
Because of this incident, Mr. Zhu almost stopped ordering the Hou Mansion.
Finally, it was the Marquis Zhou Zongren who asked the old lady to speak and asked Zhou Yang to follow Mr. Zhu to the border.
Zhou Zongren could fall out with the general and prevent Zhou Yang from going to the border. He could also call Mr. Zhu a slave, but he had to listen to the old lady.
From the capital to the border, in just over twenty days, they encountered five ambushes along the way.
Either they were bandits, water bandits, or gangsters who broke out from the caravan.
Fortunately, the general was well prepared and sent people to support him along the way. Even so, the few of them had a narrow escape from death all the way to the border.
Mr. Zhu took more than thirty border brothers to the capital to pick up his master. When he returned to the border, there were only less than ten people left.
Who wants the master to die is probably the poisonous woman in Anyang.
Only if the master dies, the son she gave birth to will be Zhou Laosan’s only son. Even if Zhou Zongren is more ruthless and prevents the children born from Anyang from entering the Zhou family tree, once the master dies, he will be the first to stand up and claim the children born from Anyang.
That's the old lady.
The general said this to his master.
The master only said that he knew, but did not defend his father and grandmother.
Fortunately, when they reached the border, they were no longer afraid.
From then on, he and Wuhu and others followed their master all over the world and never returned to the capital.
Sihai also didn't expect that the master who was the least likely to build the Star Building would suddenly think of building the Star Building?
He still remembered that on the day he left Beijing, the carriage passed by Hongwu Avenue. Mr. Zhu deliberately stopped the carriage in front of the ruins of the Star-Zhaing Tower, opened the curtain and let his master go down and kowtow.
The master huddled on the carriage and did not dare to move. He saw with his own eyes that his mother disappeared together with the Star-Zhailing Tower in the fire.
For Zhou Yang, Star Reaching Tower was a nightmare, a place that swallowed up his mother's life.
Mr. Zhu did not let Zhou Yang escape. He told Zhou Yang word for word that if he wanted to avenge his mother, he must be strong and invincible.
This Star Reaching Tower is his first hurdle.
If he doesn't even dare to come to these ruins and kowtow, how can he avenge his mother, then he might as well lie on the bed in the Marquis Mansion and rot away.
The master stumbled out of the carriage, his forehead bruised with blood from several knocks.
After kowtowing, the master called out: "Mother, the child is here to see you."
The sound of crying blood makes people cry.
That day, the wind in the capital was so strong that people who were fascinated by the wind and sand could not open their eyes.
He and Wuhu stood on the side near the ruins, watching their master kowtow one by one, and couldn't help but raise their sleeves to cover their eyes that were fascinated by the wind and sand.
When Mr. Zhu helped his master get into the carriage, he said, if one day you feel that you are so strong that you are not afraid of Wednesday or the imperial power, you will come and build the Star Reaching Tower.
Let your mother see that the son she gave birth to is not a coward, but she herself is the real coward.
How did the master answer Mr. Zhu at that time?
The master said, Mr. Zhu, I feel that the person who is most sorry for me in this world is not Anyang or Master Zhou, but my mother. As the eldest daughter of the Lin family, she has been taught by her grandfather for many years. She can carry a gun when mounted, and carry a knife when dismounted.
He fought against barbarians and killed bandits.
Why, couldn't she kill Zhou Zongyi and Anyang and make those two little bastards orphans, instead of being like this, where I didn't have a father to love me, and now I don't have a mother. But they still have both parents.
She has died a hundred times, but she wants to force me not to bring shame to her.
How can I do it?
After saying this, Mr. Zhu burst into tears and could only raise his hand and patted Zhou Yang on the shoulder in silence.
The dark ruins in front of us were the once-famous Zhaixing Tower in the capital. Every time the general returned to the capital, the eldest lady would always entertain the Lin family soldiers at the Zhaixing Tower.
Mr. Zhu came here with the old general and then with the great general.
At that time, who didn't envy the eldest daughter of the Lin family for marrying a good son-in-law and being favored by others. She also gave birth to a son, Qilin, who was known as a child prodigy.
The soldiers of the Lin family were all proud to go to the Star-Zhaing Tower in the capital and be invited by the eldest lady.
No matter who followed the general back to the capital or the border, what everyone talked about the most was how delicious the food in the Star Building was. Every room in the Star Building was more beautiful than the next.
Only the soldiers of the Lin family can follow the eldest lady to the top floor of the Star Building and appreciate the beautiful scenery of the capital as ordinary people.
But no one expected that one day, the Star Reaching Tower, which the soldiers of the Lin family were so proud of, would become a shame to the Lin family.
