Chapter 394: Pull another one into the water 1
"Pfft! Ahem!" Xu Shiyuan didn't expect this answer. He swallowed a mouthful of wine before spitting it out.
Xu Shiyuan looked at Bi Yuntao in front of him in shock. He was so shocked that he could hardly speak.
Seeing Xu Shiyuan's appearance, Bi Yuntao smiled bitterly and said, "There's no need to be so frightened by the world! To put it nicely, it's a marriage, but to put it badly, it's a marriage."
"I'm just a small person from a poor family. I took refuge in the Xue family when I was desperate."
"Brother-in-law?" Xu Shiyuan was surprised again, "Brother Bi is talented and a very talented person. Why would he make such a choice that is disgraceful to the family tradition?"
"Hey!" Bi Yuntao sighed, with a sad look on his face, "It's a long story, so don't talk about me anymore. I heard what Brother Xu said just now, isn't the purpose of your coming here for this tranquility? A girl?"
Xu Shiyuan saw that Bi Yuntao didn't want to talk, and knew that he must have something unspeakable in his heart, so he didn't pursue it in depth.
Xu Shiyuan nodded, shook his head and said: "This girl Jing'er is so beautiful, if I say that I don't admire her, it would be a lie. However, I admire her, but look at this girl Jing'er turning all men in the world over. Not caring about the look in my eyes, I naturally feel uncomfortable in my heart. It’s a pity that I have little talent and little knowledge, and I can’t do anything about this girl Jing’er. Fortunately, Brother Bi showed up in time tonight, breaking the spirit of this girl Jing’er, and also fighting for my Jinling man. Save face."
Bi Yuntao was sweating profusely. He just had a few words with a woman, but he had risen to the level of trying to win glory for a man.
Seeing Bi Yuntao's doubtful expression, Xu Shiyuan said with a smile: "Brother Bi, don't believe it. There are many people who have the same thoughts as me. Only those guys who are ignorant and unskilled always like to follow other people's butts."
While he was talking, his eyes were staring at Su Chuanli in the distance, with a sneer on his face. Needless to say, the arty person he spoke of was naturally the young master who commanded the envoys.
This kind of private fight between young masters was all about a struggle for power. Before he understood the situation, Bi Yuntao didn't want to get involved for the time being, so he just smiled and said nothing.
Xu Shiyuan suddenly remembered something and said: "Hey, Brother Bi, I wonder what the flavor of that girl Jing'er's song "Eighteen Touches" sounds like when she sings it? Is it any different from what Xiao Xiangxiu sings?"
Unexpectedly, this kid is still a slut! Bi Yuntao felt a little funny in his heart and said: "Brother Xu, I have never heard what Xiao Xiangxiu sings, but what Miss Jing'er sings must be good."
Xu Shiyuan sighed: "I'm afraid I won't have this blessing, but Brother Bi and Third Brother, you two will be able to feast your ears." There was deep envy in his tone.
Bi Yuntao laughed and said: "Hahaha! That girl Jing'er is just a bitch to put it bluntly. How can we, seven-foot-tall men, be restrained by a woman?"
"Brother Xu, your father is the governor of Jiangsu. He is an important minister and is in charge of countless local officials. He is extremely famous. This aspect alone makes him the envy of countless people. If it is just for jealousy, Brother Xu, don't you Do you feel like it’s a bit of a waste?”
"Brother Bi, what do you mean by this? If you have something to say, just say it!" Xu Shiyuan said sternly, and he heard something in Bi Yuntao's words.
Third Master He also straightened his face, stopped joking, and listened attentively.
Bi Yuntao smiled slightly and said, "Brother Xu, have you ever thought about making a name for yourself?"
"Brother Bi, why do you think so?" Xu Shiyuan asked with a smile on his face, "As long as I study the Four Books and Five Classics carefully, obtain a meritorious title as soon as possible, and enter the court, under my father's arrangement, I can be said to be on the rise! Get out! Wouldn’t it be a waste of my father’s resources and care to wander around?”
Bi Yuntao also saw the stiffness in Xu Shiyuan's smile. He did not answer Xu Shiyuan directly, but asked with a smile: "But you don't want to accept your father's arrangement, right?"
"Brother Xu, to be honest, a person's life, from birth to death, can only last a hundred years. And the years we can use to fight and fight are only a few twenty years! If everything is arranged by others, wouldn't it be too much? Are you getting bored?"
"Ha!" Xu Shiyuan chuckled, "I think it's good to be a little boring!"
"Really?" Bi Yuntao looked at Xu Shiyuan playfully, "When we were born, we couldn't choose our origin. Everything was arranged by God. After we became wiser, our parents sent us to schools and private schools. We had to recite the Four Books and Five Classics by heart, and finally grew up. As an adult, you can have the opportunity to make your own choices, but you still have to be manipulated by your parents, like a puppet on strings, to be manipulated at will, Brother Xu, are you really willing to do that?"
Xu Shiyuan's eyes gradually became colder and he looked at Bi Yuntao coldly, but his clenched fists showed Xu Shiyuan's inner unrest.
Bi Yuntao looked at Xu Shiyuan with a smile, completely ignoring his cold eyes.
"Brother Xu, although you come from an official background, you don't have that arrogant air. You are not very old, but you are well-spoken and knowledgeable. You are also interested in all kinds of strange things. The reason why you linger in Fengyue is that you are a young man. My xinxing is just to compete with Su Chuanli."
"When I first arrived here, I was just about to open a restaurant with Brother He San, and Brother Xu, you really like me. How about joining forces with the two of us? When we make the restaurant bigger and stronger, it can be spread all over China. Every inch of land, when the time comes, the three of us will be as rich as the country. No matter how much your father complains about you, I’m afraid he will have nothing to say, but he will be proud of you! I wonder what you think, Brother Xu?”
After speaking, Bi Yuntao drank the wine in his glass slowly and waited for Xu Shiyuan's answer.
He believed that Xu Shiyuan would give him a satisfactory answer. After all, no one in this world wanted to live under the control of others, especially a young man like Xu Shiyuan who had never been in a rebellious period. When this matter was brought to Bi Yuntao's face Speak out, and the dissatisfaction and rebellion hidden in Xu Shiyuan's heart will be infinitely magnified, filling his heart.
Time passed bit by bit, and it was as if time had stood still at this moment. Xu Shiyuan's eyes were as cold and stern as ever, looking coldly at the calm Bi Yuntao in front of him.
After a long time, Xu Shiyuan breathed out, his voice was slightly hoarse, and he said: "That sounds nice! You just offended Su Chuanli because of Miss Jing'er, and you are at this juncture of establishing a restaurant, and now you take the initiative to win over me, you It’s nothing more than trying to use my father’s background to gain a firm foothold and prevent Su Chuanli from bringing people to his door to cause trouble in the future.”
Seeing Xu Shiyuan speak out, Bi Yuntao raised his lips again, "As you said, I really want to borrow your father's status, and the background behind you is also the key to whether my restaurant can stand up."
"As long as I have a firm foothold, I, Bi Yuntao, have some confidence in Jinling City, and you, Xu Shiyuan, have taken the first step in starting a business and have since escaped the shackles of your father. You were once proud of your father, From now on, your father will be proud of you, and I believe that the collaboration between you and me today will definitely be praised by the world in the future."
