"I just want to steal her dowry to pay off her gambling debt."
It was better that Zhu Chengzhi didn't speak, but when he did, let alone Zhu Iizhi, even Zhu Zanxun was half-infuriated by his own younger brother.
"You! How could I give birth to such a useless thing like you! I have to beat you to death today!" After saying this, Zhu Iizhi took a whip and prepared to go around the world to whip Zhu Chengzhi.
However, at this time, Zhu Chengzhi didn't know how to avoid the edge at all. On the contrary, he just stiffened his neck and said, "Hit me! Just beat me to death! In your eyes, I'm nothing! Anyway, You only have eyes for my eldest brother and second brother!"
"I have less money than others, and the people in the courtyard have less money than others. We are all your sons, so why should I have less than them all?"
"You said that the eldest brother can have 500 taels of silver every month, the second brother has 400 taels of silver every month, and even the second sister has 300 taels of silver. Why do I only have 100 taels of silver every month? ? You are too biased!"
"If the second brother is said to have worked harder and managed the housework better than me, I would be convinced. I have indeed done nothing for the family. I agree that the second sister is better than me. After all, the second sister is a daughter's family and is a spoiled guest in the family. I also admit it. .”
After saying this, he only looked at his eldest brother with dissatisfied eyes, "I just don't understand. My eldest brother is obviously the same as me. He has ignored everything for so many years and spent so much medical expenses every year. Why? You are willing to spend so much money to raise him, and I only get a hundred taels? He is also your son. I am a waste, isn't he? Why should he be treated differently from me! I feel unhappy! "
Zhu Chengzhi became even more angry when he heard that Zhu Chengzhi did not want to repent, but was still jealous of his elder brother and resented that he could not give him the same treatment.
"Shut up! If I don't deal with you today, I will take your surname!" Zhu Ibis said angrily.
After saying this, he took the whip and whipped Zhu Chengzhi hard.
Zhu Chengzhi probably didn't expect that he would actually be whipped.
When the first whip fell on his body, he immediately groaned in pain.
And after the first whip goes down, there will naturally be a second whip and a third whip.
Just when Zhu Chengzhi was running around the room in pain, fortunately, Zhu Yuewu and others only stopped Zhu Ibis at the same time.
Zhu Yuewu grabbed his panting father, who was running after Zhu Chengzhi, and even whispered to comfort his father, saying, "Father, as a child, if you are not sensible, you will inevitably play around. As long as people are fine, it will be fine. Why do you have to do this." And I think Chengzhi has learned a lesson, and he won’t do anything next time. Why don’t you just forgive him for what happened this time.”
"Humph! Forgive him? Forgiving him is a matter for a Bodhisattva. All I have to do is tell him how to behave! If he doesn't discipline him today, he will not know what kind of disaster he will cause in the future!" Zhu Iuzhi shouted loudly. scolded angrily.
After saying this, he only struggled to beat his son.
However, Zhu Zanxun, who had been silent at this moment, finally spoke.
"Father, it's useless for you to hit him like this. Why don't you put him in my hands and I will discipline him well."
Hearing Zhu Zanxun's suggestion, Zhu Izhi said very dissatisfiedly, "What's the use of disciplining him? This kid needs to be repaired properly."
However, even though Zhu Iizhi said this, he did not chase Zhu Chengzhi all over the room and beat him just after he said it.
When Zhu Chengzhi saw that his father was no longer chasing him, he stopped saying anything, but everyone knew that he was actually holding back some anger in his heart.
After all, he always felt that he had been treated unfairly.
But now that he had said it was unfair, no one took him seriously. He was even beaten by his own father. At this moment, his hatred for his brother became even stronger.
When Zhu Yuewu on the other side saw his current situation, he couldn't help but wink at the others. He only motioned for the others to quickly send Zhu Chengzhi back to the yard.
This farce began after Zhu Chengzhi was sent in.
It's finally over.
Zhu Iuzhi said to Zhu Yuewu tiredly, "Yuewu, please send these people back."
The person from Lanyue Casino immediately said cautiously, "Master, this is our gambling debt."
Zhu Ibis only said, "The Yuewu Society will give it back to you together."
Upon hearing this, the people at Lanyue Casino immediately smiled and nodded, "Thank you, sir."
Zhu Zanxun wanted to speak again at this time, "But father, I still feel that there is something hidden in this."
However, Zhu Izhi obviously didn't want to say anything more. He just waved his hand and said, "Okay, whether you have any hidden secrets or nothing, don't tell me any more. I don't want to hear so much from you. This is how it ends."
After saying this, Zhu Izhi looked at Shen Fanghui again and said, "You have been wronged by this matter, but don't worry, I will teach this kid a lesson, and I will also send more people to the west wing."
However, after hearing Zhu Izhi's words, Shen Fanghui immediately wanted to reject her father. "Thank you, father. There is no need to send more manpower."
Hearing Shen Fanghui's words, Zhu Zanxun naturally knew Shen Fanghui's worries, and he also knew that his father didn't like to be rejected and was easily suspicious.
So before his father became suspicious, Zhu Zanxun immediately took the initiative and said, "Father, Huiniang means that she has been placed in the east chamber by me, and I will definitely ensure her safety."
After hearing Zhu Zanxun's words, Zhu Izhi thought for a moment, and couldn't help but nodded and said, "Fang Hui has been in our Lu family for some time, and now your marriage should really be put on the agenda. That's good, I'll ask someone to check the date tomorrow. After that, I'll officially find a date after three letters and six engagements, and I'll ask you to get married as soon as possible."
Upon hearing Zhu Izhi's words, Zhu Zanxun and Shen Fanghui were obviously a little surprised.
However, there was obviously a hint of surprise in Zhu Zanxun's accident. He turned to look at Shen Fanghui with a smile, but he soon saw disappointment on Shen Fanghui's face.
It was obvious that she was not happy about their impending marriage.
If she doesn't have herself in her heart, what's the point of such a forced marriage?
When he thought of this, Zhu Zanxun couldn't help turning his head to look at his father and said, "Father, are we going too fast?"
"What's so quick? You two have been together for so long, why don't you hurry up and give Miss Lu a title?" Zhu Izhi was obviously very dissatisfied with Zanxun for raising such an opinion in front of everyone.
And with this arrangement, the big event last night came to an end.
Later, when Zhu Yuewu led the group of people away, he only gave them one thousand taels of silver notes, and then he gave each of the group of people ten pieces of silver.
At first, when they saw the extra money, they were only a little particular about it. But when they found out that the money was too much, they wanted to take it back.
However, Zhu Yuewu was also very polite, "This money belongs to my brother. He has really delayed you for too long, and I feel very sorry. So this is what I will use to compensate you all separately, and it will be considered as the lost wages from me." , if you don’t accept it, wouldn’t it be disrespectful to me?”
After hearing Zhu Yuewu's words, this group of people had nothing to say.
After this group of people received the money, they naturally smiled and thanked Zhu Yuewu immediately.
Then they all left happily.
After Zhu Yuewu watched them leave, he suddenly asked the people around him, "Are they all gone?"
Facing Zhu Yuewu's questions, the people around Zhu Yuewu naturally just nodded.
Zhu Yuewu then whispered, "In that case, remember to go find someone tomorrow to send a message to the shopkeeper of Lanyue Gambling House, and tell him that I want to close his shop."
Upon hearing Zhu Yuewu's words, the people around him asked in confusion, "Master, what excuse should we use?"
Upon hearing the man's question, Zhu Yuewu immediately snorted, "It's no need to ask, just say that they overcharged gambling debts. The one hundred taels they overcharged just now is evidence that they overcharged gambling debts."
As soon as I heard Zhu Yuewu
After saying this, those around them suddenly realized. No wonder they said that their young master was suddenly so kind, and only took the initiative to ask for the one hundred taels to be used as lost work compensation. It turned out that their young master had arranged to stay here later.
In this case, Lanyue Gambling House's attempt to deny it would not work. After all, the money was in his hands, and no one believed what they said.
At that time, this group of people will have no choice but to obey their young master's arrangements.
In an instant, the group of people immediately followed Zhu Yuewu and praised Zhu Yuewu, "The young master is wise. If this happens, his shop will not belong to the young master. It is not impossible for the young master to revitalize it in the future."
When Zhu Yuewu heard this, he didn't say anything. He only whispered, "Okay, we should go and see the unlucky guy Zhu Chengzhi."
As Zhu Yuewu finished speaking, a group of people quickly left.
No one noticed that in the darkness, a thin young man quickly ran out of the bamboo forest.
But because he ran out in the opposite direction, no one knew what the boy heard.
At this time, the group of thugs from Lanyue Casino had just walked out of Zhu's house.
They threw away the money in their hands and said, "I didn't expect that the Zhu family was quite polite and actually gave us this money. It seems that if the young master of the Zhu family comes to our casino again in the future, we have to treat him well." , but my brother-in-law also said not to receive this young master, and not to come to collect debts after receiving him. He was afraid of the Zhu family, but it turned out that the Zhu family was nothing more than this. You see, they didn’t have to eat and drink well. Send us away, then the Zhu family is not as scary as they say."
After hearing the leader's words, the others naturally just nodded.
And just when they were about to disappear into the vast darkness, someone suddenly said, "Wait a minute."
