Li Longzhan dragged Li Yu out of the brothel and threw him into the carriage outside the door. Then he clasped his fists at the brothel's mother Zhang and said, "Shopkeeper, I'm sorry, my brother-in-law has caused trouble for you." Then, Li Longzhan said directly Reaching out, a follower beside him handed over a small bag of silver. Li Longzhan handed the silver to Zhang's mother.
Mother Zhang weighed the bag of silver, which was at least a hundred taels. This made Zhang's mother's gloomy face immediately brighten up with a smile, and said: "Young Master Li, what are you talking about! Occasionally disputes are common in my place. Besides, Second Young Master Li is also a frequent visitor to our place. Yes. If you have nothing to do, you can always come to our place for entertainment. We guarantee that you will be satisfied." He also gave Li Longzhan a wink. All in all, Li Yu only consumed a table of food and wine and damaged a stool. This amount of silver is more than enough to cover all these. As for the fight between Li Yu and Wu Zhiren, it has nothing to do with him. Even if someone is killed, it is still a dispute between their two families.
Li Longzhan replied calmly, "Okay. If there is a chance, I will come. Farewell." Li Longzhan got on the carriage and left.
Mother Zhang looked at Li Longzhan leaving with a feeling of love, and thought in her heart: This eldest young master Li is much better than this second young master Li. Not only is he a handsome person, but he is also generous and courteous. Relatively speaking, Mr. Li is really like a businessman who suddenly has money.
Li Longzhan sat in the carriage and looked at Li Yu, his face slightly angry. Li Yu had a gloomy face and said nothing.
Li Longzhan said: "Dad has not been at home these days, and you have become more and more arrogant! If I hadn't stopped you just now, would you have been planning to beat someone to death?"
Li Yu returned unconvinced: "Do I want you to take care of it?"
"What are you talking about! I am your eldest brother. If dad is not at home, I have the right to take care of you!"
"Hmph! Don't say that father is not at home, even if father is at home, I will be the same!"
"Second brother! Over the years, I know that you have resentment against your father! But what's the point of you doing this to yourself! If you beat someone to death, you will be prosecuted! Killing for life, you want to be punished at such a young age Catch and behead your head!"
"Anyway, our family has plenty of money now! Just think that I bought his life!"
"You can't be promiscuous when you're rich! Even if our family has some wealth now, we can't be arrogant and careless about human life!"
"What a waste of human life! Do you know what he said!" Li Yu stood up, held Li Longzhan's shoulders, and yelled.
Li Longzhan looked at Li Yu quietly and asked, "What did he say?"
"He said! He said! Forget it! I don't want to say it!" Li Yu didn't want to mention things that would harm his mother, and then sat down again, "Anyway, the matter is over. I dare to do what I do and I will be beaten. , if I really beat him to death. If my father is willing to help me settle the matter, I will settle it. If it cannot be settled, in the worst case, one life will be worth one life. Anyway, no one cares about our mother and son. I happened to go down there to meet him earlier. My mother!"
"Second brother! Why do you say such angry words! What do you mean no one cares! Dad! Aunt Xin! Master Zhao! Miss Mu Lan! And your eldest brother and me! We all care about you! But these years, you see for yourself What have you done! You can’t find anyone all day long! You don’t do your job properly, you spend a lot of time drinking and drinking! You don’t come back until midnight when you don’t drink!”
Li Yu felt very aggrieved. In fact, he was secretly working hard, but no one understood him at all. Only the warmth from the dagger on his waist made him feel relieved.
Back at Yinlong Villa, Li Longzhan said, "You should go back to your room first. I will arrange for someone to inquire about that person tomorrow. I hope he is fine."
When Jian Xin saw Li Longzhan and Li Yu coming back together, she felt something was fishy. She came over and asked, "Young Master! Second Young Master, why are you guys back together?"
Li Longzhan said: "It's nothing. I happened to be coming back from the escort agency. I passed by a restaurant and saw my second brother drinking inside, so I brought him back with me."
Jian Xin looked at Li Yu carefully and found blood stains on his clothes, and frowned. Li Yu seemed to feel that Aunt Xin had discovered something, so he turned around quickly and said, "I'm going back to the room first!" and walked away without looking back.
Jian Xin asked Li Longzhan, "Young Master! What happened?"
Li Longzhan sighed, knowing that this matter must not be hidden, so he told Aunt Xin about the beating in the brothel. When Jian Xin heard this, her face turned pale and she said, "I've always been too spoiled to him! I didn't expect that he would actually fight against people now, almost killing them!"
Li Longzhan comforted him: "Don't worry, Aunt Xin! When I arrived, the man was still angry. I will send someone to inquire about it tomorrow. If something happens to that man, I will definitely find a way to keep my second brother safe. But, the second brother My brother didn’t tell me why he had a conflict with someone! If possible, please ask him!"
Jian Xin nodded and said, "Then it's up to you, young master."
Li Longzhan clasped his fists and said, "My father is not at home now. As an elder brother, I naturally have to help him! Aunt Xin, I'll go back first."
Jian Xin said: "Okay. Young Master, please also pay attention to rest."
Li Longzhan nodded and went back to his room.
Li Yu returned to the room and had just taken off his clothes and was about to change clothes when the door was pushed open by Jian Xin. Li Yu was stunned and looked at Jian Xin with a confused expression.
Jian Xin shouted angrily at Li Yu: "Yu'er! Come here and kneel down!"
Li Yu hadn't realized what had happened, but looking at the angry Jian Xin, he felt a little frightened and said weakly: "I'll put on my clothes first!"
Jian Xin roared angrily, "Wear whatever you want! Come and kneel down!"
Li Yu had no choice but to walk in front of Jian Xin and kneel down.
This loud roar immediately attracted many servants to watch from outside the door. They had never seen Jian Xin so angry, and they all wanted to see what happened. Mu Lan naturally followed the voice and came over. After squeezing through the door, they saw Li Yu, shirtless, kneeling in front of Jian Xin.
Jian Xin saw Mu Lan coming and ordered Mu Lan: "Mu Lan, bring the rattan stick!"
Mu Lan looked at Jian Xin's bulging veins and was a little scared, and asked, "What's wrong? Aunt Xin!"
"Go get the rattan stick first!"
"This..." Mu Lan hesitated.
Jian Xin roared at Mu Lan, "You don't listen to what I say, do you?"
Mu Lan frowned and said, "Okay, I'll get it now!"
Li Yu asked Jian Xin: "Aunt Xin, what's wrong? Did the elder brother say something to you?"
"Young Master just told me the truth about what you did!"
Li Yu said angrily: "Humph! Why are you pretending to be a good person in front of me? Then you turn around and go find someone else to complain!"
"What? You don't dare to admit what you did, do you?"
"Why don't I dare to admit it? I just hit someone! How about it!"
Mu Lan brought the cane stick over, and Jian Xin walked up to Mu Lan and asked Mu Lan to hand the cane stick to her. Mu Lan held the cane stick in her arms and didn't want to hand it to Jian Xin, so she said, "Aunt Xin, no matter how important the matter is, let's ask first."
Jian Xin snatched the rattan stick from Mu Lan's hand and said, "The matter is already clear!"
Jian Xin took the cane stick, walked up to Li Yu who was kneeling on the ground, picked up the cane stick, and hit Li Yu on the back with all his strength.
Jian Xin shouted while beating him, "I'm telling you not to learn well! I'm telling you not to learn well!"
"Pah!" The stick hit Li Yu's back one after another. Li Yu would groan with each blow. However, Li Yu still stubbornly straightened his back and showed no sign of flinching.
After a while, Li Yu's back had been beaten to pieces, with every trace of blood visible, but Jian Xin didn't seem to want to stop, so he quickly grabbed Jian Xin's arm and said, "Aunt Xin, stop beating! First!" Tell me what’s going on!”
Jian Xin gasped and sat on the stool, pointed at Li Yu and said: "This kid! Beating people in a brothel! Almost beating them to death! If the young master hadn't happened to pass by, we would have all gone to the Yamen to see him tonight. Got it!"
The servants outside the door did not mind the excitement and immediately started talking.
"Miss Jianxin has such a good temper, but she can be so angry!"
"Maybe I'm following someone to grab some girl!"
"It's really his bad luck to meet our young master!"
"It's time for the Second Young Master to teach you a lesson. If Madam hadn't left early, the owner of the village would feel guilty, otherwise he would have been punished long ago!"
Mu Lan listened to the sound outside the door and shouted angrily at the door: "What are you looking at? You have finished your work, haven't you?"
The servants were also very sensible and dispersed.
Mu Lan looked at Li Yu's bloody back and felt very distressed. Seeing that Jian Xin's anger had dissipated a little, Mu Lan walked over and took the rattan stick from Jian Xin's hand first, and said, "There must be a reason for the conflict between the second young master and others. Let's ask first. .”
"No matter what the reason is, you can't hit people casually! And you beat people to death!" He yelled at Li Yu: "Did you teach me to do this? You usually drink everywhere and don't do your job properly. That's all. Now I still want to beat people to death!”
Mu Lan said to Li Yu: "Second Young Master, what's going on?"
Li Yu couldn't express the pain in his heart and complained a lot. The burning pain in his back continued to stimulate Li Yu's nerves. Li Yu tilted his head and said loudly: "It's nothing! I don't like him! I just want to beat him!"
Jian Xin said: "Look! Look! What has become of this child now!" He stretched out his hand to snatch the cane stick from Mu Lan's hand.
Mu Lan hugged the cane stick tightly and refused to give it to her sword. She said to Li Yu: "Second Young Master, now is not the time to lose your temper. Please tell me what's going on!"
There were tears in Li Yu's eyes, but he still said forcefully: "I just don't like him! If you want to hit me, just hit me, even if you beat me to death!"
When Jian Xin heard this, her eyes filled with tears, and she cried and said to Li Yu: "Forget about beating you to death? Forget about beating you to death? You know that your mother tried so hard to protect you back then, even to the point of losing her life!" Now you are saying that I will beat you to death? Are you worthy of your mother?" Jian Xin sat on the stool and cried loudly, "You are like this. How sad it would be if your mother knew about it underground!"
Li Yu lowered his head and said nothing, tears streaming down his face. Jian Xin lay on Mu Lan's shoulder and cried, and Mu Lan patted Jian Xin's back. Mu Lan could only sigh. Neither the owner of the village nor Master Zhao were in the village now, but one person could stop this situation.
Mu Lan supported the tearful Jian Xin and said, "Aunt Xin, let's go back first. Let's talk about what happened tomorrow."
Jian Xin nodded and sobbed: "Yu'er, think about it for yourself!"
When Mu Lan and Jian Xin were on their way back, Jian Xin was still muttering: "If I had gone with the lady, I wouldn't be like this!"
After hearing this, Mu Lan was afraid that Jian Xin would not be able to think about it, so she hurriedly advised: "Aunt Xin! It's not that bad! Don't think too much!"
