C185

"This is a great plan!" Fatty Liu could not help but laugh, cursing in his heart: "Damn it, I've never heard of Li Chunfu being stingy, but I never expected him to be so generous today!" "Alright, since you said it out loud, I will make you bleed even if I have to force my stomach to the point of bleeding!"

Seeing that he was going to turn into a tiger, Li Chunfu suddenly held his stomach and pretended to be in pain. He said, "Oh, my disappointing stomach!" Boss Zhu, excuse me for a moment! "

"Then go and come back quickly!" Fatty Liu covered his mouth as he laughed.

When Li Chunfu heard this, he apologized and awkwardly ran out of the living room. This trip took a full hour!

This wait made Fatty Liu scratch his head anxiously. He wanted to leave several times, but he was unwilling to do so. He thought to himself: "Good, Li Chunfu, you are really stingy!" I gave you a hundred thousand silver taels before I took anything from you, but you only know how to make empty promises and treat me as a decoration. I'm going to risk it all today, so no matter what, I have to waste time here.

He kept asking the maidservants whether Zhu Jiufu had left or not, but every time he answered the question he was thoroughly disappointed. He could not help but curse, "How can there be such a shameless person in the world? Did he take my joke seriously? What a fool he is! "

In the end, he picked up the inkstone and was about to throw it on the ground, but after thinking about it for a while, he decided that he really couldn't bear it and put the inkstone back down. Then, he slammed his fist on the table and said with hatred, "Fine! Anyways, I have asked for fifty silver taels from this shop assistant, so I will spend it on you now and treat it as repaying you! "

The moment his words left his mouth, he felt that something was amiss. He couldn't help but sink into deep thought once more as he muttered to himself, "That's not right! The receipt I wrote to him was one hundred thousand taels, which meant that I didn't take any more of his money! "Aiya, am I really going to suffer a huge loss in front of this grandson this time?"

When he thought here, he regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. He was so angry that he scratched his head as if he could pull all his worries out with a few more twists. In any case, that pair of white jade lions had earned at least five thousand silver taels from him.

When he thought here, he felt a lot more comfortable and rushed into the living room. He said with a slightly breathless smile, "Boss Zhu, I'm so sorry. My disappointing stomach almost took my life this time, sigh! I really shouldn't have drunk that bowl of sour plum soup! "

After Fatty Liu heard this, he could not help but laugh, "It's alright, I understand! However, what kind of sour plum soup is so amazing that it actually causes Steward Li so much pain? I would like to have a taste for it myself! "

"Sigh!" It's all my fault for being greedy and letting it drink all of it. Li Chunfu raised his eyes and smiled. He then went up and pulled Fatty Liu's arm, "Go, go, go. We should go and tease the Spring Pavilion!"

"Outside of Li, I heard that the Spring Pavilion isn't just a place where good wine and good dishes are served, but a lady is even better. May I ask if that's the case?" Fatty Liu asked with a smile.

Hearing this, Li Chunfu was surprised, he thought to himself, "Damn it, I was hoping to save some money for the Spring Pavilion. It looks like I won't save any money, because this grandson is obviously not just a glutton, but a pervert!" Such f * cking bad luck! "

Although he thought this in his heart, he still put on an expression of admiration and said, "Oh, Boss Zhu! "This trivial matter in Yangzhou can't be hidden from your eyes!"

Fatty Liu smiled indifferently and said: "It's not that I'm smart, but that the Spring Pavilion is too famous. Even if I don't want to know, I can't!"

"Hahaha!" Boss Zhu, you're too modest! " Li Chunfu laughed.

The two of them laughed along the way and finally walked out of the Li family estate. Fatty Liu couldn't help but take a look at the door and ask, "Outside of Li, are we going there?"

Li Chunfu immediately smiled and said, "Didn't Boss Zhu want to get familiar with the local customs and practices as soon as possible? I feel that this is an opportunity. How about we walk while chatting, and introduce you to some of the larger and larger areas of Yangzhou city. What do you think? "

Fatty Liu muttered to himself irresolutely before saying, "Although what Steward Li said is reasonable, with my status, if I reveal myself on the streets and get targeted by some villains, it would be bad!"

Li Chunfu's eyes turned and he immediately laughed, "Yes, yes, yes! As expected of Boss Zhu, I will send someone to prepare a sedan right away! "

Having said that, Li Chunfu waved to the servant at the door and ordered, "Prepare two sedans. Master, I want to go to the Spring Pavilion!"

"Yes sir!" After the servant received his orders, he quickly ran over to prepare to not mention it.

Fatty Liu glanced at Li Chunfu and thought to himself, "This bastard is really stingy. He can't even bear to sit in a palanquin after coming out of his office. I wonder what use does he have for so much money?"

Although he was extremely dissatisfied with this outsider, he did not dare show it. He was still smiling and chatting with Li Chunfu until he could no longer find a conversation, but the sedan still had not arrived!

Fatty Liu could not help but feel uneasy. After all, he was the person who could eat the most, but he could not be hungry. It was already past dinner and his stomach was growling, but he had not reached the Spring Pavilion yet!

"What's going on?" Fatty Liu finally asked impatiently.

"Maybe the family is too busy to spare the manpower?" Li Chunfu smiled.

"It can't be? Such a large Li Residence, could it be that we lack a few sedan bearers? " Fatty Liu said in disbelief.

"Boss Zhu might not know this, but I rarely go out, so I've never specially raised a few servants to carry a palanquin. Now that I have to go out, it's naturally difficult to recruit people!" Li Chunfu laughed.

"Is that so?" Fatty Liu couldn't help but size Li Chunfu up again and again, "According to what you said, does your house no longer have people who eat their fill?"

"Indeed!" Li Chunfu scratched his head with a smile, "To tell you the truth, my husband has three jobs in total!"

"Oh?" Fatty Liu was slightly surprised, "Which three items?"

"Beat more, chop wood, and dump feces!" Li Chunfu smiled, "But when he's busy, he still has other things to do!"

"For example …" Fatty Liu asked with a frown on his face.

"For example, sweeping the courtyard!" Li Chunfu laughed.

When Fatty Liu heard this, he could not help but twitch his mouth and think, "My mother! This Li Residence's servant is really difficult to be! "I always thought that the Ru Yi Hall was hard to deal with, but now, it seems that the Ru Yi Hall is more like a paradise!"

However, now was not the time to speak of such things. He had to put this esteemed guest Li on the outside to make him happy. Otherwise, he wouldn't be willing to part with his silver once they reached the Spring Pavilion. That would be embarrassing!

Thus, when Fatty Liu heard Li Chunfu's words, not only did he not say it was hard to obey, he even gave him a thumbs up and praised, "Outside of Li, you really have a good family background. No wonder you are the richest man in Yangzhou!"

"No, no, no!" Li Chunfu waved his hand, "There are so many rich people in Yangzhou City. How can I be the richest man in Yangzhou with my little wealth?"

"Outside of that, don't be modest anymore!" "Who doesn't know that after Zhao Dexing dies, you will be the richest man in Yangzhou. In front of me, you can forget about pretending!" Fatty Liu laughed.

"Hahaha!" Indeed, nothing can be hidden from Boss Zhu! " Li Chun smiled reluctantly.

At this time, he saw two soft sedans finally swaying towards him from the lantern's light. Fatty Liu couldn't help but look over and see that the person carrying the sedan was truly strange, the oldest was around sixty years old, and the youngest was at most fourteen or fifteen years old. Of course, the weirder was that the sedan bearer actually had an old woman, who was believed to be at least sixty-eight!

When Fatty Liu saw this, he could not help but smile wryly. He subconsciously turned to Li Chunfu and asked, "Outside of Li, is it appropriate for these people to carry the palanquin?"

"What's wrong with it?" Li Chunfu smiled calmly, "They are all elites!"

"These people... An elite? " Fatty Liu almost burst out laughing. "Outside of Lee, you really know how to tease me!"

Look at that old man, he stayed in my house the longest and worked no less than the young people. Look at that young man, although he wasn't tall, he was the most quick-witted. Li Chunfu laughed.

When Fatty Liu heard this, he could only feel a bad taste in his heart. He could not help but scold in his heart: "Damn you, you pickpocket Li. Are you still f * cking an idiot?" "No wonder your family is rich. So it turns out that they are all scrape from these poor people. I curse you to die a horrible death!"

"Boss Zhu, Boss Zhu?" Li Chunfu saw Fatty Liu standing there stunned, he did not know what was on his mind, so he could only call him softly.

"Other than Steward Li, I just thought about it and thought that it would be better if we walked. After all, it's already late, and with the cover of night, even if my enemy passes by me, he might not be able to recognize me!"

"No, no, no!" Li Chunfu waved his hand, "The sedan is ready, it can't be wasted! Come come come, let's get on the palanquin! "

While Li Chunfu was speaking, he pushed Fatty Liu onto the palanquin. Fatty Liu was extremely humble, and finally had no choice but to sit in the palanquin. He heard Li Chunfu yell, "He got up!"

With this shout, the two palanquins rose at the same time and rushed in the direction of the Spring Pavilion. Unexpectedly, just as they walked a hundred feet, Fatty Liu's palanquin suddenly lowered to the left, almost knocking him out of the palanquin.

Hearing the scream, Li Chunfu hurriedly got down the palanquin to take a look, only to see that the young man in the palanquin fell to the ground with a pale face, looking as if he was exhausted. Li Chunfu kicked the young man ferociously, cursing: "Useless rice bucket, how far can I carry it?"

Fatty Liu got out of the palanquin nervously. He stared at the young man on the ground and asked: "It can't be? I'm not that heavy, am I? "

"Boss Zhu, what are you talking about? This is none of your business!" Li Chunfu laughed.

"Then how could he …" Fatty Liu was immediately taken over. This person was none other than the old woman who was in her sixties.

Her nose turned sour and tears began to roll in her eyes as she said: "This child has grinded the beans for the whole day and was called to carry the palanquin before she could even have time to eat. He is completely hungry!"

"Shut up!" Li Chunfu stared at the woman angrily, "How much did he do? "All you want to do is eat. Is my Li family's food that delicious?"

"Old master, this child is sick and weak. He usually doesn't dare to eat too much, or else …" The old man continued.

"Scram!" What a disgrace! " Li Chun Fu glared at the old man angrily, and decisively stopped him from speaking, "Bring him back and give him a change! Since he's so useless, I'll make him scram tomorrow. I'm still afraid that he'll die at home! Get lost! "

When he said that, Fatty Liu's anger was blown away. He could not help but scold in his heart: "Good for you, Li Chunfu, are you even f * cking human? It's said to be heartless and rich, but this brat is too f * cking terrible! I'm already bad enough, but compared to you, I'm more like a good person! "

The more he thought, the angrier he got, but he was troubled by his own mission, it was inconvenient for him to do anything, so he wanted to settle this matter peacefully, but the young man stared at Li Chunfu with a pair of white eyes and tightly hugged onto Li Chunfu's leg. Even though Li Chunfu was cursing and beating him up, he did not let go, Fatty Liu thought he was trying to fight with Li Chunfu, and immediately advised, "Lad, you're wrong! He is the master and you are a servant. He doesn't want to invite you, so you can just go somewhere else to earn a living.

When the old man heard this, he could not help but tear up, and said: "Master, you are wrong! It's not that he wants to fight to the death with the outsider, it's that he wants to beg the outsider not to chase him away, because if he leaves the Li Residence, he really won't be able to live! "

"Huh?" Fatty Liu was surprised, "What's going on? He has hands and feet, how can he not live? "

"His mother is still living in the outer sect. If he doesn't work for other people, how can he raise his mother?" The old man raised his hand to wipe his tears, "In this Yangzhou city, other than his official residence, who would be willing to pay him such a high wage?"

When Fatty Liu heard this, he felt his heart ache. He looked at Li Chunfu, who was still whipping the young man, and suddenly rushed over. He grabbed Li Chunfu's hand and shouted, "Stop!"

"What are you doing?" Li Chunfu could not help but to ask loudly in shock.

Fatty Liu suddenly realized that he had been too impulsive. He was stunned for a moment and then said with a face full of smiles, "Other than Lady Li, he's only a lowly servant. Why do you have to lower yourself to him?" Aren't you afraid of dirtying your own hands by hitting him? "

"Look at how he keeps holding on to me. What can I do?" Li Chun Fu said angrily.

"Didn't he want to work in your house? "Then what's the big deal if I let him fight?" Fatty Liu smiled faintly. "You, Esteemed Li, could simply squeeze a few dregs out of the ground to support him. Do you really need to incite hatred for his sake?"

Hearing this, Li Chunfu was somewhat unwilling to give in, but Fatty Liu tapped him lightly on the shoulder. Li Chunfu said with a smile, "Apart from you, give me some face!" If this continues, then we won't be in the mood to go to the Spring Pavilion tonight! "

When Li Chunfu heard this, he could not help but glare at the young man angrily and scolded, "For Boss Zhu's sake, I'll let you off this time. Hurry up and get out of here!"

When the young man heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief. He hurriedly kowtowed to Li Chunfu and kowtowed to Fatty Liu three times. Then, he stumbled back to the Li Residence.

Li Chunfu looked at the young man as he disappeared. He let out a long breath and said, "Damn it, I have to wait a while more before I can get up!"

"No need!" Fatty Liu laughed and pulled Li Chunfu's sleeve, "Let's walk! I just have to take this opportunity to get familiar with the roads of Yangzhou City! "
