Chapter 200: Lord Cheng'en is not immune to this
Because of the words of the secretary which were full of speculation, Fang felt extremely uneasy at first, and He Wanniang couldn't help feeling cold and afraid.
As a result, when they actually entered Zanghui Courtyard, saw the people in front of them, and heard the voices echoing in the courtyard, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law suddenly understood.
Hi, she thought it was something else, it turns out it was just a storytelling!
But it was no wonder that everyone was so obsessed with it since it sounded so good. It sounded pretty good to her, better than those opera troupes that the children had invited to cheer them up in the past.
Listen, listen! The birds singing are just birds singing, the dogs barking are just dogs barking, even the sound of the gurgling stream and the sounds of weapons and horses, all seem as if you are there. How wonderful, how wonderful!
It was a false alarm. Fang glared at the timid secretary who lied about military intelligence, and then walked towards the crowd who were listening attentively.
He Wanniang hurriedly caught up with brisk steps. When she passed the pale-faced Shishu, a smile couldn't help but curl up her lips, and she felt happy in her heart.
Such a stupid thing who only wanted to climb the ladder, she couldn't even do a simple task like passing on the message, it was only right! She could kill herself without even having to do anything.
Li Yaoguang was so absorbed in what he was saying that he didn't notice that someone new had joined the crowd. Or maybe Lu Qingshui downstairs had drunk too much and couldn't help yelling for a break to go change clothes. Li Yaoguang stopped temporarily, and the maids and servants behind the three masters followed Lu Wu who had rushed out, and only then did they notice the extra person behind the crowd.
The maidservants hurriedly paid their respects, making such a noise that the two brothers who were left sitting in the private room all turned around to look.
Seeing that it was their mother, sister-in-law, and (wife), the two brothers quickly stood up and greeted them.
"Mother, Wanniang, how did you get here?"
"Mother, sister-in-law."
After the greetings, the mother saw that her sons were so comfortable and relaxed, while she and her daughter-in-law were extremely worried. She was so angry that she wanted to beat up the three of them.
But seeing her eldest son, who used to be calm and composed, now relaxed and in such a good mood was something she hadn't seen for many years. She loved her own son so much that no matter how much she felt, Fang couldn't say anything.
Muttering something indifferently, Fang was surrounded by her sons and sat at the front seat. When the maids and servants added new seats, Li Yaoguang's eyelids twitched, but he still hurried forward to greet them.
Fang was reserved at first, and just smiled at Li Yaoguang who kept saying "good, good, good" and "the book is good."
As a result, when her beloved second son turned his head over and whispered to her, and learned that Li Yaoguang was actually a girl who came to her house to tell stories in order to fulfill her promise, Fang felt a little happier when she thought of the magical sound she had just heard and that the little boy in front of her, no, no, no, this little girl in front of her was the legendary Wuyouzi.
She invited Li Yaoguang to come forward, took Li Yaoguang's hand intimately, and asked him questions in a gentle voice.
Since it did not involve any confidential information or privacy, Li Yaoguang answered all the questions just to please his elder because Lu Er had helped him before.
When Lu Qing came back from changing clothes and saw his mother and sister-in-law making a fuss again, Li Yaoguang finally broke free from the passion of the wife of Duke Cheng'en.
She thought that since the mistress of the house had arrived and it was already getting late in the day, these gentlemen and ladies would have to have their meals first, and then she could continue in the afternoon, right?
Unfortunately, she still underestimated the extent of these people's obsession.
Perhaps it was because after the catastrophe in Kyoto, even powerful people like them had been living under high pressure and fear?
Or maybe it was because she spoke so well and the story was so wonderful that after not listening for a long time, I couldn't stop thinking about it and was afraid that she would regret not telling me. I really wanted to ask her to tell me everything in one day?
In short, after Master Lu Wu came back and sat down, Li Yaoguang sadly received Master Lu Er's urging eyes.
"Sir, please." Li Yaoguang...does she have to be so cruel? She will be hungry and tired too!
What should she do? Seeing the new mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looking at her with sparkling eyes, Li Yaoguang wanted to refuse but quickly ate a plate of pastries and sat down again.
As soon as the gavel sounded, all the maids, servants, guards, including the servants who came with the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, quickly took their seats and stretched their necks to listen to the story.
The poor tool man Li Yaoguang continued his lecture, which started from the time when the sun was at its zenith and ended when it was setting.
After a busy day and a day of being annoyed, Lord Cheng'en walked out of the yamen with heavy steps and went straight to Ronghuayuan.
He originally wanted to find his old wife to comfort his wounded heart, but when he arrived at the yard, he found that not only was his old wife not there, but most of the maids and servants in the yard were gone.
Duke Cheng En was shocked, thinking that maybe those cowardly wimps in the court were offended by him, and instead of dealing with him, they were dealing with his wife and children at home? He had clearly retreated again and again for the sake of his sister, just to protect himself!
In panic, Lord Cheng'en hurriedly called his entourage to send people out to look for his wife and children. When the servants in the courtyard heard the news, they came with his little grandson and reported that his wife had taken her daughter-in-law to the second son's courtyard and had not returned yet. They said that they were afraid that there was some kind of witchcraft.
Upon hearing this, Duke Cheng'en's legs went weak and he quickly called for his guards and secret guards to rush to the second brother's Zanghuiyuan.
When they arrived at Canghui Courtyard, Lord Cheng'en ordered the guards and secret guards to advance quietly into the courtyard. They did not see any thieves or monsters, but saw their masters all listening leisurely and comfortably in the courtyard. Are they listening to books?
The guards and secret guards were all very curious. They listened carefully subconsciously and were fascinated. They wanted to join in, but when they remembered that their master was still waiting outside, the guards hurried out to report.
After hearing this, Lord Cheng'en outside turned green in the face. He flicked his sleeves and walked into Canghui Courtyard with heavy steps, angrily.
I was about to get angry, but then I heard the story in it was the one I had heard before, something, oh oh oh, it was The Legend of the Condor Heroes, it was actually the unfinished Legend of the Condor Heroes!
All his anger and lessons were forgotten. Duke Cheng'en didn't even bear to disturb the people in front of him, for fear that the commotion would cause the gentleman to stop telling this wonderful story. Duke Cheng'en asked the guards to quietly bring a chair and place it under the corridor in a corner of the crowd, and he sat down on it.
He found that Wuyouzi's voice was still as crisp and clear as before. The yard where he kept his son was not small, and he could hear the voice so clearly from a long distance. The young master's skills had not diminished. Not bad, not bad.
After returning from the yamen, Lord Cheng'en, who had experienced a thrilling roller coaster mood, was now leisurely sipping tea, eating cakes, and nodding his head to join the group listening to the book.
When the sun set in the west, the light and shadow in the courtyard gradually dimmed. Li Yaoguang stopped talking completely because he was really dry-mouthed. The people in the courtyard dispersed with a sense of reluctance. When they found Lord Cheng'en behind them, they became panicked again.
But Fang didn't care about that. While hurriedly ordering the maid to bring the reward, she eagerly grabbed Li Yaoguang's hand and squeezed and patted it. There was still a smile on her face, but she opened her mouth to say something that would make Li Yaoguang fall.
"This hero's story is good, and you tell it very well, kid, but it's hard to listen to without a beginning and an end. Kid, why don't you come to my yard next time tomorrow and we'll start from the first episode, okay?"
Li Yaoguang looked at Lu Er anxiously.
After all, this was not what they agreed to at the beginning. Today, she had already said most of it. It would be finished in just one more day. Should she start from the beginning again? She didn't want to!
Even if the reward in her hand was as good as two gold ingots of five taels, she didn't want it.
Lu Er felt guilty when Li Yaoguang looked at him, so he quickly rubbed his nose and pulled his mother over to coax and persuade her, using the excuse of not scaring her off first and then slowly persuading her later. He finally coaxed his mother.
Lu Fang breathed a sigh of relief, and when he saw Li Yaoguang was about to leave, he didn't even bother to eat, and hurriedly escorted him out of the house, fearing that his parents, with their eyes glowing with anger, would cause trouble again.
You know, I haven’t even finished listening to the ending of the sequel to The Legend of the Condor Heroes. Don’t I have to wait anxiously from the first episode again?
he does not want!
