The sun is scorching hot, and the leaves of the trees have wilted, making the shade in the yard unnecessary.
The cicadas chirp even more harshly in the heat.
"Hurry up, hurry up!" a man in charge shouted in a low voice.
After a group of boys ran over and held up poles to cling to cicadas, the yard became quiet for a while.
"You idiot!"
In this silence, Xiaoli Liu's curses in the study became even louder.
Dou Qi covered his forehead, his body was stained with tea water, and a tea bowl rolled down on the ground.
"Grandpa." He said with a sense of grievance, "I, shouldn't I also teach them a lesson..."
Sitting across from him behind a few cases, Mr. Liu was wearing an old homely robe that had remained the same for decades. Just like his thin appearance, he had a loyal appearance and always had a smile on his face no matter who he faced.
Respectable and approachable.
He was born in the imperial examination in the cold window of ten years. He started as a ninth-grade secretary and provincial school secretary, and now he is the secret pavilion school secretary with black rhinoceros belt, green robe and silver fish bag. He is in charge of countless people who are seeking official positions
Those who are sent by others can go to the front of the temple to attend court.
Those classmates who laughed at him because he had no money to manage relationships and could not go out to seek qualifications, and who laughed at him that he would never achieve anything, now smile at him with awe and even flattery.
But he treated everyone consistently and never caused trouble, no matter who laughed at him or bullied him. Of course, those people would have bad luck later.
He is amiable to his younger generation, trustworthy to his superiors, is good at reading and writing, and has been familiar with business for decades. No matter how complicated the official business is, it is a piece of cake for him. He can just turn over documents that others cannot find.
Yes, he knows the rules that others can't explain. He is always the last one in the queue when it comes to promotions and promotions. He has never blushed because of his treatment.
You come first, you come first, that’s fine with me, that’s fine.
He always said this.
Such an honest, capable and non-competitive person, what official would not love and rely on him?
Of course, there are also people who don't love him and don't rely on him. However, those who come to the official position based on air conditioning are no match for him, an old man who has been among the officials in the capital for decades. The affairs of the government are complicated and there are always mistakes, which inevitably leads to some bad luck.
Gone sadly.
Thirty years of supplies are enough to make a thin sapling with no roots grow into a tree with tangled roots and lush branches.
To be able to be where we are today, Xiaoli Liu himself concluded that without anything else, we can only do it with our heart.
Do things with heart, record things with heart, manage with heart, and be cautious with heart.
Even though his family already has a lot of wealth, and his bare land occupies half of the city in his hometown, in front of people in the capital, he is still like the young boy who first came to the capital thirty years ago, working hard and plainly, and treating everyone and everything with trepidation.
He has been like this for one year, ten years, and thirty. With such a mind, Liu Xiaoli will admire himself when he wakes up in the dark night. Only in the dark night will he sit behind the curtains and count the people who have been framed by him.
He drove away the unlucky ones who had seized the land, property, wives and children, and laughed wildly, but it was silent laughter.
Even with the cover of night, he would not allow himself to show a trace of his true nature. He would keep wearing this skin until he stood at a higher position.
He believes that one day it will happen.
This time, a military attache actually wanted to challenge his authority, especially when he knew he existed. This was something Liu Xiaoli couldn't bear.
He will definitely let such people learn a lesson, just like those who were arrogant and arrogant in the past. I heard that the female members of the Zhou family practice martial arts to some extent, so they must have a different taste from the women in other families' boudoirs.
However, as always, be cautious and take your time.
First, let's give that person surnamed Zhou a warning, check the rumors and see who will help, and then we can start to figure it out slowly.
Unexpectedly, this useless godson could not wait to jump out to vent his anger!
This is undoubtedly exposing yourself! It’s too imprudent!
"Teach me a lesson! If you fail to succeed, you will fail!" Liu Xiaoli scolded angrily, sat down and picked up the tea bowl, "There is a miracle doctor here, but if the hand is reattached, what good will you do besides frightening the snake!
"
Dou Qi hurriedly stepped forward to pour tea.
"Then the miracle doctor said that people who are not destined to die will not be cured. Now Li Dashao only has a broken hand and is not destined to die. Didn't she save him? This means that he has a close relationship with Li Dashao, and it is more certain that Taipingju is Zhou.
Private property of the family." He chuckled.
What's so good about it? So what if it's connected? After all, it was chopped off, scared to death, and painful to death, and it also let the ordinary people know how powerful it is.
The camp of life is not just for one breath.
Liu Xiaoli saw through his mind at a glance and looked away in disgust.
You can't keep this kind of villain for too long, otherwise sooner or later he will die from exhaustion...
Liu Xiaoli repeated with a slight smile.
"After dealing with the tiger, the monkey still doesn't let it go! Why are you anxious?" he said.
"Grandpa." Dou Qipai said with a smile, "They are already in the cage and cannot escape from Grandpa's grasp."
Liu Xiaoli looked sideways and smiled disdainfully.
"When the meat is not in your mouth, you can never say it is yours." He said slowly.
"Grandpa, you really praise them too much." Dou Qi said with a smile, "The Zhou family doesn't matter. Back then, Prime Minister Wen found a reason to kill generals who had made great achievements in battles. He said he had many lovers, but so what?
Kill them as soon as you get them. Ten soldiers are no match for a Jinshi with a hairpin, so these rough soldiers have to be suppressed."
"It doesn't matter to the Zhou family, but that miracle doctor..." Liu Xiaoli said, twirling his beard thoughtfully.
"That Jiangzhou fool!" Dou Qi said with a smile.
Finally knowing who was plotting against him, Dou Qi carefully inquired about everyone in the Zhou family.
"Grandpa, you were right a long time ago." He took a few steps closer and said with a smile, "This is a fool, a real fool. He only gets better when he meets a stranger, and what he holds in his hand is also a stranger's secret skill."
"So, it takes me decades of practicing medicine to master the skills of seeing, hearing, asking, and understanding. How can a teenage girl be so good?" Liu Xiaoli said calmly.
Sure enough, there are quite a lot of secret skills of the Zhou family. Resurrection from the dead, tofu, well, which one will be better then? Or simply completely uproot the Zhou family and put them all into his pocket. In that case, he will undoubtedly be even more powerful.
The thought flashed through his mind, and Liu Xiaoli immediately sat upright.
"Whether she is a fool or not, she does have the ability to bring the dead back to life. If the Zhou family is really desperate and she hastily offers any conditions, it will be bad if someone is attracted to her." He said, narrowing his eyes,
The smile on his face was still loyal, with a bit of humility, "So, let's keep a line in life so that we can meet each other easily in the future, and don't chase the poor criminals. We have done what we should do, and the rest depends on how Mr. Zhou does it, so
Just wait patiently for him to come back."
When he comes back, he will have all kinds of means...
Speaking of which, Liu Xiaoli is really not a generous person. He especially doesn't like people he doesn't like hanging around in front of his eyes. It's annoying to see them.
After saying that, he looked at Dou Qi again.
Dou Qi was in a cheerful mood these days, and started applying hairpins again, which smelled delicious.
"Please give me some peace of mind. If you cause trouble again and ruin my affairs, I will deal with you first." Liu Xiaoli said slowly.
In the hot summer, such a kind-faced old man spoke softly to him, but Dou Qi couldn't help but shudder.
"Yes, yes, Grandpa, I know." He hurriedly said with a smile.
When the morning light was bright, there was a knock on the door of Cheng Jiao's mother's house.
"Are you here again?" Brother Jin looked at Liu Lang outside the door and shouted.
Xu Maoxiu in the yard looked over, and Liu Lang, who raised his hand to push Brother Jin to enter, also looked at him.
"Mr. Zhou." Xu Maoxiu lowered his head slightly and said.
Saturday Lang walked in without paying attention.
"Xu Sanlang."
A male voice sounded, a bit warm.
Xu Maoxiu looked at Qin Langjun who came in behind Zhou Lang, and nodded again.
"My surname is Qin, you can call me Thirteen." Qin Langjun introduced himself.
Xu Maoxiu did not answer his words, but looked at Liu Lang.
"Sixth Young Master, my sister-in-law is still resting after working hard for days. If you have something to do, please come back another day." He said.
As he said these words, Xu Bangchui and Fan Sanchou walked out of the hall, and walked towards Liu Lang with a bit of evil.
Sister-in-law...
Saturday Lang snorted, and instead of standing still, he walked towards the corridor like a demonstration.
Seeing that the two sides were about to conflict, Qin Langjun hurriedly shouted, "Wait a minute."
"Xu Sanlang, we are here to ask for help. It is always better to have more than one person to help us this time," he said.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rustle of clothes on the floor, and a woman came out from the left side of the corridor.
She was wearing a plain green dress that swept the floor, her black hair was tied back, and she was holding a round fan and looked over blankly.
"Do you think that if you help me, I will treat your leg?" She said lightly, "Then, it would be easier to kneel down and beg me sincerely." (To be continued)
