Chapter 148 The Secret Order of the Marshal's Mansion
Some people say that time is the best medicine to heal everything.

Although not absolute, there is no big problem in the field of rumors.

Since the end of the first lunar month, the evil rumors that have been making a fuss in Fengtian City have gradually disappeared with the warmth of spring and the melting of snow and water.

Perhaps the biggest news in the city was that the last tram on a certain section accidentally derailed, resulting in the death of several patrolmen in the line of duty.

Externally, things are still changing.

The Feng clique, which had just emerged from the influence of the mutiny, joined forces with Yan Laoxi and Wu Ziyu in the spring to besiege Feng Huanzhang.

Speaking of the brothers who were born in Beiyang, they can always find ways to get out of the game. Either you beat me or I beat you. If you win, the dragon roars and the tiger roars, if you lose, Jinmen Yanglao, no one will kill anyone. Very martial arts.

Unlike some young people who are quick to kill and specialize in canceling household registrations. In terms of structure, they are not even the slightest bit different from the big shots.

But Zhao Sanyuan occasionally pays attention to martial ethics and structure. At least this time he did not cut off the Chen family.

Of course, this mainly depends on Chen Zikai's future performance. If the necessary moment comes, Zhao Sanyuan will kill him without anyone noticing.

Well now.

Only one thing.

rest.

Taking advantage of the better medical conditions in big cities, Zhao Sanyuan and Kang Muang can take good treatment and rest their bodies.

It's an exaggeration to say that since the engineering team met, things have almost never stopped. They are either fighting or fighting. Their physical condition is extremely poor, they are injured, and they are exhausted both physically and mentally.

Originally, according to Sanyuan's intention, after the incident was over, he quickly returned to the teahouse to spend a leisurely life. Where could he recuperate? How fun would it be to go back and tease Lao Liu and Wang Dachui?
But Li Dongzhi sternly refused, at least he would have to wait until the two brothers' bodies recovered completely before releasing them. Before that, they were honestly recuperating in Fengtian City.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Sanyuan didn't insist, and Lao Kang didn't have any objections. It was up to him to make the decision. Besides, the relationship with Brother Li was here, so there was no need to be too polite.

As a senior official of the Department of Construction, Lao Li must have a private house in Fengtian City. Although it is not as big as the Chen family's, it is still a small single-family house. It is very suitable for living in peace and quiet, not to mention recuperating. It is necessary to continue to stay at the 1912 Hotel. Since more than a dozen people died, the hotel has been forced to close down. No one outside the hotel knows the specific reason.

Of course, there is another point. Since the Chen family's incident, Lao Li has completely given up his few bad habits, such as using official cars for personal use, staying in hotels under official names, etc., and will no longer do them.

The bloody lesson of the Chen family is right in front of us.

In addition, he did his best for the health of his two brothers. He ate and drank everything at any cost, and spent a lot of money to hire doctors for outpatient treatment, including several foreign doctors from the consulate.

As time goes by, the two brothers' health is getting better and better, and their vitality is getting stronger and stronger. Lao Kang recovers faster. He takes advantage of his free time to practice Zhou Tian, ​​vomiting and returning to the Yuan at dawn, lighting up the foundation in the middle of the month, and occasionally painting Draw talismans and wander around to restock.

Zhao Sanyuan's health is relatively worse. He was injured for a hundred days, and the recovery time is longer. It was not until the last Si Festival that he recovered to [-]% or [-]%. He is much more leisurely than Lao Kang. Every day he either lays it out in the sun or wears it with him. Doumiao niece plays.

The days passed happily, it was the most leisurely time since coming down the mountain.

This morning.

Zhao Sanyuan was playing with a squirrel in the courtyard. From the corner of his eye, he saw Lao Kang nuzzling next to him, as if he was hesitant to speak. When Zhao Sanyuan cast a doubtful look, Lao Kang immediately looked up. sky.

For half an hour, Lao Kang maintained this state.

He obviously had something on his mind and wanted to say something, but he didn't say it.

This made Zhao Sanyuan's face full of question marks.

Finally, I got really annoyed and spoke first.

"What's wrong, Lao Kang? Is daddy in his pocket?"

"No."

"Then what are you doing here? Is it because I didn't buy melon seeds for you? I already told you to go back to the teahouse and buy them for you."

"Look what you said, I can eat melon seeds at any time. The main thing is that I have something to do. I can't make up my mind. I want to ask you, brother, to help me with my advice."

Surprised!

Zhao Sanyuan was really shocked!
I thought to myself that until now I have known Lao Kang, it seems that I have never experienced a similar situation.

What's going on?As for being so cautious?

Is it.
Thinking of the key, Zhao Sanyuan immediately refused, "Don't you have any money to borrow? I basically used the money left in my pocket to buy sweets for niece Doumiao. With the remaining money, I also want to go shopping for some old items in the old streets of Chengnan."

"If you don't want to borrow money, how can I not know how much you have in hand." Kang Muang shyly took out a pair of new cloth shoes from his pocket and handed them to his brother. Looking at the appearance, he knew that the quality was very good.

"Okay, Lao Kang? Do you know that I want to change to new shoes?" Zhao Sanyuan immediately became energetic, "If you want to give a gift, you should have told me earlier. As for being coy about it."

"I didn't give it as a gift. The fifth sister made it herself and gave it to you."

"Fifth sister is really ingenious. I will buy a bracelet or hairpin for her later."

Unexpectedly, after hearing these words, Lao Kang trembled and his eyes brightened.

He stepped forward and took Zhao Sanyuan's hands excitedly.

"Bracelets and hairpins? Brother, do you think it would be better to use them as a return gift?"

Zhao Sanyuan was stunned and said subconsciously: "Don't women just like this kind of thing? There should be no problem."

Kang Muang nodded repeatedly, "It has to be my brother. We want to go together, but I can't make up my mind. Now that I hear what you say, I feel confident. I'm going to buy dozens of bracelets and hairpins now."

There was no problem in the first half. It was impossible for the fifth sister to give cloth shoes to just one person. If she had to give them to both of them, it would be natural for Lao Kang to think of a way to reciprocate the gift.

But what the hell are dozens?

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, dozens of them? Are you going to change your career to wholesale? I've never found you to have this kind of business acumen before. Besides, I remember you're not a water creature, so throwing away these things won't make you prosperous."

"Hey, brother, you don't know something. The fifth sister did give me cloth shoes, but there are about twenty pairs. Let alone spring, summer, autumn and winter. It's enough to buy new shoes according to the 24 solar terms. Of course I can't just give one. Bracelet and hairpin.”

this moment.

Zhao Sanyuan seemed to have been hurt a hundred million times.

People are more dead than people!
The same people, why is there such a big difference?

He knew that Fifth Sister was very fond of Lao Kang. He could tell it when he was at the Li family's old house, but he didn't expect that a virtuous and gentle woman like Fifth Sister would express it in such a straightforward way.

"No! Don't send ordinary things!"

Zhao Sanyuan suddenly felt the great responsibility.

Because in his opinion, although the Li family's family status is not very high, the fourth child Li Dongzhi and the fifth sister Li Xiaohan are definitely good people.

Looking at it from another perspective, Lao Kang has already reached the age of starting a family, and the fifth sister is also a poor person. She has been a widow for ten years without even getting married.

In terms of appearance, the fifth sister is more than good enough for Lao Kang. Such a good wife is hard to find even with a searchlight.

Of course, the premise is that Lao Kang has this intention. Zhao Sanyuan does not want to mess up the relationship, but if Lao Kang misses a good marriage because of his slow mind, Zhao Sanyuan is not willing to see it.

"Didn't you just say you could give it away?"

"You are you and I am me. Can we two be the same? Let me ask you, what do you think of Fifth Sister?"

"Okay."

"Just talking nonsense, who doesn't know how good Fifth Sister is? I'm asking what do you think is good about Fifth Sister."

"all good."

"Okay, okay, it's all good if you know it. It's easy to return gifts. I heard that it's popular in the upper class to send flowers. Those bright red and green flowers seem to be Western products. They must be sold in Fengtian City. You can buy a handful. Come back and see Fifth Sister off, she will definitely be happy."

Kang Muang was stunned for a while.

I thought it must be my brother.

How much is the flower talent worth?

If you give away dozens of hairpin bracelets, it will cost a lot of money.

You can save money and be fashionable by listening to my brother.

Wonderful!

Just do it, Lao Kang pedaled his bicycle and rushed out.

Not long after he left, Li Dongzhi waved from the kitchen: "Three yuan, I made a cut on my hand. Come in and help your fifth sister chop the stuffing, otherwise we won't be able to make it in time for lunch." "Okay~"

When it comes to finding a mother-in-law, Zhao Sanyuan occasionally thinks about it.

He had reviewed his horoscope for himself, but no matter how he predicted it, his marriage was a mess and he couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't think about it deeply.

But if you really want to ask what kind of wife he wants to find, Zhao Sanyuan will definitely answer the fifth sister Li Xiaohan.

She is beautiful, virtuous and gentle at home.

It seems that the fifth sister has all the advantages of women.

Every time he thought of this, Zhao Sanyuan felt sorry for the unmarried uncle for a second. Before the fifth sister could marry him, he died when he was getting married. It seemed that he was not blessed with such a blessing.

The fifth sister, who was kneading dough on the chopping board, smiled and asked, "Sanyuan, do the new shoes still fit?"

"Come together! We must! But no matter how much we do, we still can't do it with Lao Kang!" Zhao Sanyuan laughed and stepped forward to help.

At this time, Li Dongzhi gave his little brother an approving look.

I thought that Sanyuan was really discerning and saw this good marriage.

Li Dongzhi really felt that Kang Muang and his biological sister were a match made in heaven. If they could become in-laws, they would be closer to each other.

My sister knows that she really appreciates Kang Muang. The question is what Xiaokang thinks.

"Fifth sister, remember you are not a sheep, right?"

"Indeed, I'm a monkey."

"That's fine, that's fine."

Zhao Sanyuan knew how much older the fifth sister was than Lao Kang, but he never asked how much older she was.

If he were six years older, he would be dead.

Once the relationship between sheep and rat is over, the white horse has been afraid of the green ox since ancient times!
When Lao Kang, who was born in the Year of the Rat, met his wife, who was born in the Year of the Sheep, life was basically miserable, and both children were harmed.

It would be best if the woman is born in the year of the Ox. Black, Rat, and Ox are compatible, and there is nothing wrong with the compatibility between men and women.

Although the monkey and rat are not so prosperous, they are indeed good.

But even if they are in conflict, it doesn't matter. Zhao Sanyuan has a way to upgrade the zodiac sign of the fifth sister and match it with Lao Kang. He has learned this kind of loophole technique from the old man, but he doesn't know how many people in the world there are. meeting.

While chopping stuffing.

Lao Kang is back.

He happily walked into the kitchen, holding a flower basket in his hand.

However, Zhao Sanyuan always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't place it for a while.

The fifth sister, Li Xiaohan, didn't think much about it. She saw the flower basket in Lao Kang's hand and smiled and said, "Huh? Mu Ang, did you go shopping for vegetables? It just so happened that I didn't go to the vegetable market today."

"Oh, Sanyuan asked me to go, but it makes me very tired." When Lao Kang was about to hand over the flower basket, he was immediately stopped by Zhao Sanyuan.

"What are you doing? I asked you to buy flowers, but who asked you to buy groceries?"

"I bought them all as you ordered."

"Where are the flowers? Where are the flowers?"

"This is it."

"Then why do you think Fifth Sister is a dish?"

"I didn't know. I asked around where Western flowers were sold, and then an older brother took me to a very high-end shop and said that this was it."

"What is it?"

"Broccoli, there must be both Western and Western flowers."

"Well, what he said seems to make sense. Maybe the foreign devil's flowers can be seen and eaten, but they are too green. Oh no, I don't care. I bought them anyway. You can send them to Fifth Sister quickly."

The two brothers whispered, but they didn't know that Li Dongzhi beside them was already on the verge of crying.

Be nice!

I thought Sanyuan had come up with some ground-breaking idea for Xiaokang, so he made a special trip just to add something to his lunch?
But it should be said that Xiaokang is really willing to spend money for Xiaohan.
These broccoli flowers are so expensive that I can buy several bouquets of roses.
At this point, Zhao Sanyuan's clever plan went bankrupt.

This sudden matchmaking has not yet progressed.

Lao Kang was busy cooking, and Zhao Sanyuan even finished half a plate of fried broccoli with tears in his eyes.

The numb one is quite delicious.

When Li Wansong, who was dressed in military uniform, came back, he was confused and felt that the atmosphere at the dinner table was a bit unusual.

Especially Fifth Aunt, she was not in a hurry to eat. Instead, she was carefully trimming the broccoli roots and humming a little tune while trimming. She was obviously in a good mood.

"It's a coincidence that you're back. Let's eat quickly."

"It's too late, Fourth Uncle. You, Brother Kang and Brother Sanyuan should quickly pack up and follow me."

"Nothing can delay your meal."

"The commander-in-chief has secretly ordered the three of them to go to the brothel immediately. The commander-in-chief will make time to summon them in the mansion as soon as possible. It is not a formal summons."

Dang-

Li Dongzhi dropped his chopsticks, his face full of shock.

In fact, before the crisis was resolved, he knew that the commander-in-chief was very likely to summon his two brothers.

It's just that Fengjun has been busy with supplies recently and has never taken the time. Seeing that two months have passed, the possibility of summoning is almost non-existent.

Unexpectedly, the commander-in-chief gave a secret order and did not summon him at the office building.

What is the brothel?
The base camp within the Zhang family base camp.

That's Shuai Mansion!

It is the home of the Marshal and the Young Marshal!

Can ordinary people go there?

Li Dongzhi's heart became more and more uneasy. He quickly pulled Li Wansong to sit next to him and whispered: "It's not because of the incident between the 1912 Hotel and the Chen family. The commander-in-chief wants to vent his anger, right?"

"Probably not." Li Wansong looked calmer, "First of all, the commander-in-chief has no reason to do this. Even if there is, why go to all the trouble to get people to a brothel if you want to do it? The Guard Brigade can solve it by just pulling out a few squads. Bar."

"Wouldn't it be easier in the Office Building? Why go to the Commander's Mansion?"

"Well, Uncle Fourth, is it possible that the commander-in-chief wants to do the math, but it's not possible in public?"

Li Dongzhi shook his head repeatedly, "Impossible! I know that the marshal with a rough background really believes in this aspect, but he has such an expert around him. The old man named Ma from the Internal Affairs Department is still the nominal chief of staff of the [-]th Brigade. That one, he is very accurate in telling fortunes, and he specializes in serving the Zhang family, so there is no need for my two brothers to tell fortunes!"

Li Wansong sighed, "The foreign monk likes to recite sutras, or the marshal is simply interested, but no matter what, we dare not go? The marshal's mansion personally sent someone to pick him up."

The uncle and nephew murmured for a long time without explaining the reason.

Zhao Sanyuan and Kang Muang on the side were very indifferent and gulped down their food.

After eating and drinking enough, Zhao Sanyuan stood up and wiped his mouth.

It's a blessing, not a disaster, it's a disaster that can't be avoided.

Even if you die, you can't starve to death.

If you are in Fengtian City, you will never be able to refuse the secret summoning order from the Commander's Mansion.

Anyway, we want to see what kind of person this legendary handsome man is.

"If I had known earlier, I would have saved some room to go to the handsome man's house. They should be in charge of the food there, right?"
