Chapter 1459 Phoenix Clan Chapter: The fee is a bit high
"Alan." When the old man called Zeng Lanzhi's name for the second time, his breath became much lower.
Only then did Zeng Lanzhi react and nodded sharply: "Yes, yes, old man."
According to the plan, the old man was going to sleep for two days and two nights.
The people sent by the Yue family to notify Yue Jianfei had long been intercepted by Zeng Lanzhi's people.
Even if the Yue family finds something wrong and sends someone to inform them, it will take at least a day and a night for Yue Jianfei to come and go.
Zeng Lanzhi thought that this day and night was enough for her to do things. After all, things had been planned for a long time.
Unexpectedly, the old man did not faint, and the most important person actually appeared in front of him in high spirits.
Zeng Lanzhi glanced at her butler, who immediately lowered his head.
She walked over and said coldly: "Come on, accompany me to get ready."
"Yes, yes, no, madam, the old man's medicine is still cooking. I'm going to check on the situation now. Xia Li, Qiu Li, you accompany madam to prepare."
After saying a word, the housekeeper turned around and rushed away desperately. At this time, it was impossible for him to dare to leave with Zeng Lanzhi.
Zeng Lanzhi took a deep breath, glanced at the two maids not far away, and had no choice but to leave.
She is not afraid of Tang Xiaohua, but she is afraid of Yue Jianfei and the old man.
The elder, who had been standing silently in the crowd, finally looked better when he saw that the old man was still well.
"Lao Yue, what's the matter with you? Didn't the housekeeper just say that you fainted?" the elder asked softly.
"No, I pretended to be asleep to trick him." The old man shook his head, "Who asked him to keep feeding me medicine? The medicine is too bitter and I don't want to drink it."
The old man's words were heard by Zeng Lanzhi who was leaving, and she wanted to strangle the housekeeper to death.
Unfortunately, the housekeeper ran away in a flash, and she didn't know where he had gone.
"Come on, come on, it's rare that the elder is here today, let's have a good chat," the old man continued.
"Okay, okay." The elder nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Only then did Yue Jianfei's second brother react and immediately waved his hand: "Since dad and elders still have something to say, please!"
"Dad, please! Elder, please!"
The elder was once again invited to the main seat, and the old man also sat on another chair on the main seat.
Zeng Lanzhi quickly took the maid and presented them with tea and cakes.
Feng Jiuer came to the table between the two benches in the main seat and generously used a silver needle to test the tea and cakes.
Zeng Lanzhi, who was standing by, saw this and immediately frowned.
She stared at Feng Jiu'er and asked in a deep voice: "What do you mean? Do you think I am going to poison the old man and the elder?"
"That's what you think it is." Feng Jiuer did not give Zeng Lanzhi a good look.
The old man looked at the elder beside him with a smile and said softly: "Elder, don't mind, I'm not doing well lately."
"This little girl is someone the boss found for me. Not only is she proficient in art, she is also very good at martial arts. The only drawback is that the cost is a bit high."
The old man's words made Tang Xiaohua and Feng Jiuer curl their lips unconsciously.
Feng Jiuer didn't expect that the old man was also a joker.
"The cost is very high?" The elder looked up at Feng Jiu'er and asked, "How high is it?"
The elder is very old, at least ten years older than the old man. His hair is all white, and he has already reached the age where his eyesight is dizzy.
Feng Jiuer had never known this person, but since Zeng Lanzhi wanted to invite him here, the identity of this old man should not be simple.
"One hundred taels of silver an hour, do you think it's expensive?" the old man raised his eyebrows.
"This is really not that high." The elder nodded and looked at Feng Jiuer again.
"Yes." The old man also looked at Feng Jiu'er, "It's expensive, and my boss is not short of money. I also like this little girl very much."
Feng Jiuer glanced at the two elderly people, picked up the teapot, and poured a cup of tea for both of them.
"Grandpas, please have tea!"
"Okay." The elder nodded, picked up the tea cup, and looked up at the old man, "Lao Yue, what happened today?"
"What could possibly happen? It's just that my second and third sons were instigated by others and did stupid things. Unexpectedly, the elders were also implicated."
"Elder, I am sorry for offering you tea instead of wine." The old man raised his tea cup and said with a smile.
Except for Zeng Lanzhi, probably no one knew that the old man glanced at her while toasting.
The elder raised his cup and clinked it with the old man's cup, took a sip of tea, and then put the cup down.
"Lao Yue, given our relationship, you still need to make amends, don't you? As long as you are fine, that's fine, that's fine."
The elder stretched out his hand and patted the back of the old man's hand.
"What can I do in the old man's house?" The old man shook his head and sighed lightly.
"If the boss doesn't make progress, isn't it because Xiaohua is still there? After all these years, Xiaohua has treated me better than her father. My daughter-in-law is just a good person."
The old man raised his eyes and looked at Tang Xiaohua in the hall, with a satisfied smile on his lips.
"If someone wants to bully Xiaohua, I will definitely not let her go!"
The old man took a deep breath, looked away, and looked at Zeng Lanzhi who turned to leave.
"Second brother, ask someone to send the elders back, and leave everyone else behind. I have something to say."
The old man's words made Zeng Lanzhi startled. After she stopped, she remained motionless and her body was very stiff.
The second master looked at Zeng Lanzhi, immediately changed his gaze, looked at the old man, and nodded: "Yes, Dad."
When the old man looked back at the elder, his expression suddenly became friendly.
"Elder, when I get better, I will definitely visit you. I still have some housework to deal with today, so I won't keep you here."
"It doesn't matter." The elder shook his head again, "Then I'll take my leave first."
"Please!" The old man waved his hand.
Feng Jiuer pushed the old man and sent the elder out of the hall, then pushed the old man back again.
Outside the temple, the elder left with his people, and the group of unknown killers also left.
In the hall, except Tang Xiaohua and Qiao Mu, everyone else was standing.
Most of the people standing were very nervous, especially the other two masters of the Yue family, the second master Yue Jianhua and the third master Yue Jiancheng.
Feng Jiuer pushed the old man back to the main seat. Jianyi bent down and picked up the old man and carried him to the main seat.
The old man leaned on the main seat and glanced at the people in the hall.
Suddenly, he snorted coldly and patted the table hard: "Tell me! What is going on?"
The old man became angry and a bunch of people knelt down in the palace.
Except for Tang Xiaohua and Qiao Mu who were sitting down, everyone else knelt down.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Zeng Lanzhi turned around, glared at Tang Xiaohua, and stood up.
"Dad, it's Tang Xiaohua who wants to harm you, why do you trust her so much? You trust the wrong person!"
