Water Margin begins as a captain in Yanggu County

Chapter 49 My Brother Taught Me
Yanggu County Government Office, in prison.

There was a wooden cross that was already covered in human blood, and Yun Liwan was tied to it.

Su Wu stood in front of him and asked, "Did you contact the Liangshan bandits or was it Dong Ping who contacted them?"

"Bah! Su Wu, you are just a small county head, and you dare to frame me and General Dong. What a hero General Dong is? Who in Shandong and Hebei doesn't know him? Don't you even look at how many heads you have..."

Yun Liwan's eyes were red with anger and his veins were throbbing.

Come to think of it, this look is really worthy of Yun Liwan's identity as a soldier.

A little hard!
Su Wu dodged the "Pooh" and stood back, waving his hand slightly.

Dong Jian stepped forward and said, "Yun Liwan, Dong Ping was chased away by my captain a long time ago. Now my captain is the military commander of Dongping Prefecture."

Yun Liwan turned his face away: "Don't try to fool me... Just you? Humph, wait until tomorrow, when General Dong Ping's army arrives, I will teach you a lesson..."

Before he could finish his words, Dong Jian swung the whip in his hand, directly on the mouth. This was the appetizer.

On the chopping board behind Dong Jian, all kinds of torture instruments were available, ready to be used one by one.

Su Wu shook his head, walked out of the prison, and raised his hand to call Li Cheng: "Go and tie up Yun Lishou and take him to the next cell. When you tie him up, let Yun Liwan see him. When he enters the cell, just beat him..."

Li Cheng nodded and went to do it.

It was already late, but the interrogation had to be done overnight, and the formal procedures had to be followed clearly, which would also be a credit to the two prefects.

Su Wu was sitting in front of the front government hall when he saw Wu Song walking towards him with his head down.

Su Wu then asked, "Why is Erlang so dejected?"

Wu Song looked up at Su Wu, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he stopped himself.

Su Wu just had a smile on his face, and his smile was mysterious.

"Brother, what are you laughing at?" Wu Song asked.

"Haha..." Su Wu also laughed out loud.

"Brother, what are you laughing at?" Wu Song asked.

"I'm laughing at you for encountering difficulties." Su Wu said.

"Brother...um...how did brother know?" Wu Song was surprised, but he really couldn't say it out loud. How could he tell others about such a family shame?
Su Wu first changed the subject: "It was said that you beat someone up in Wang Po's Teahouse at noon?"

"Brother, did you know about it? I had to beat him, but I didn't use any harsh measures. What do you think? Zhang Si was the one who spread the filthy rumor, and Wang Po must have spread more of it. I just happened to run into them, so how could I not give him a good beating?"

When Wu Song talked about this, he still had a ferocious look on his face.

"Well, he deserves to be beaten!" Su Wu nodded.

Wu Song also laughed: "Brother, you are afraid that I will cause trouble for you. Even if you are here, I will do it myself."

"But this matter is not entirely about Zhang Si and Wang Po, but about Ximen Qing. But it doesn't matter now. It will be good if you stop the rumor."

"Hehe... just make sure the people in the county don't dare to say anything more." Wu Song knew that his brother would not blame him.

"Okay, let's talk about your difficulties..." Su Wu said.

Wu Song naturally couldn't say it, and looked constipated.

Su Wu said again: "Well, you can move to my new house, and let Li Cheng live in the old house."

Wu Song had no time to refuse and nodded immediately: "Okay! Thank you, brother!"

But then he reacted, looked at Su Wu with a puzzled face, and asked: "Brother, have you guessed something?" "Of course I guessed it almost right." Su Wu looked around to see if there was anyone around, and then said: "Your sister-in-law, with such a beautiful appearance, must have been unwilling to marry your brother, and even resentful... and you, you are beautiful and strong, how can people not be tempted? Some things, although they are not decent, can be solved properly as long as they are not excessive..."

"Brother, do you really know?" Wu Song was surprised and said, "Brother, do you really have such a thorough understanding of people and things? You have such foresight after just one encounter!"

Su Wu avoided the question and just said, "Alas...it's a trouble."

"Brother, teach me." Wu Song was anxious and grabbed Su Wu's arm.

"It's right to move out first, but there's no need to bring it up with your brother. Keep some dignity, lest she be ashamed and harbor hatred in her heart."

We need to stabilize this matter first.

Wu Song hurriedly asked again: "And then?"

Su Wu was also thinking about it. He also wanted to give it a try, hoping that everyone would be happy.

Then he said, "You still have to talk to her in a nice way. You don't have to be fierce. You should speak earnestly and sincerely, explain things to her with reason, appeal to her emotions, and speak kindly. At the same time, you should also show your firm attitude first."

"Well, that's easy. I was angry just now, so I'll just go back and apologize to my sister-in-law." Wu Song now seemed to really listen to Su Wu's words.

"That's the right thing to do. She's thinking about you, so just let her think about you. No matter how much she thinks about you, you just need to control yourself. With what you said, she will naturally restrain herself..."

"I understand, I understand..." Wu Song was really a little confused about this kind of thing. According to his personality, he probably no longer regarded Pan Jinlian as a good person in his heart. What he said and did were of a straight man's way, which not only hurt people's hearts, but also made people humiliated.

Su Wu has a different perspective. He believes that women are also human beings and there is often a fine line between good and evil, so he should try to save them first.

Then he continued, "In the future, you have to bring money home. Get two maids to serve at home, and a carriage outside the house. Don't be short of silk, satin, jewelry, and other things. In this way, she can have some face to show off in Yanggu County... and she will have less resentment in her heart. As for the money, I will take it out for you."

"Okay, okay... Thank you, brother." Wu Song nodded repeatedly. He was obviously a little panicked because of Pan Jinlian's teasing today.

"But you can't just try to please her. You have to give her some warnings, not only persuade her, but also keep an eye on her, and use some threats. You have to treat her well, but you don't have to be too nice to her. You have to find the right balance. Once she gives birth to a child, maybe things will be different..."

Su Wu was doing all this, just hoping that nothing would happen. In this way, even if Pan Jinlian still had feelings for Wu Song, it would not matter, and she could live like this for the rest of her life...

A large part of the reasons why Pan Jinlian did some things in the story were not just physical, but more psychological. People live by their face and their emotional values.

It was even necessary to allow Pan Jinlian to show off in front of her former master, Mr. Zhang and his family.

It also teaches people to say a few more words in front of her that will make her feel happy, such as: I thought she, Pan Jinlian, married the wrong person, but I never thought she married so well.

If you are satisfied with this, and then keep watching and guarding, maybe you can really live a peaceful and stable life.

Another thing is that Wu Da was not completely confused. He had a clear mind. As long as Pan Jinlian didn't do anything excessive, Wu Da would just coax and worship Pan Jinlian.

As long as Wu Song handles things properly, there is a great chance that he can live a peaceful life.

Wu Song just nodded and said, "I'll do as you say."

But Su Wu suddenly had a fierce look on his face and said, "That Wang Po... is a disaster."

"Brother, what do you mean?" Wu Song asked again in confusion.

"No need to say anything. Just think of a way to drive Wang Po out of Yanggu County." Su Wu knew that Wang Po was a real disaster after all.

"It's okay to beat her, just drive her away..." Wu Song was still more straightforward at this time.

"Leave this matter to Dong Jian." Su Wu said this. At this time, Wu Song was far inferior to Dong Jian in terms of all these skills.

"Okay, okay..." What Wu Song feared most was letting his brother down.

"There is one more thing." Su Wu had something important to do.
