Chapter 136
And Nan Chengyan met another friend in the brothel. It's strange to say that although that person is not surprising in appearance, his words and deeds are very suitable for Nan Chengyan's appetite.When the two of them were in the brothel, they often went to the restaurant to drink and chat, and Nan Chengyan was very face-saving, and always insisted on paying the bill to his own name. As a result, it would naturally be a huge expense after a long time.

Although Nan Chengyan was on good terms with Yu Rao, he never thought of redeeming her from the brothel. Although he was concerned that he was the son of the Nanfu, he was afraid of losing his reputation, and most importantly, because of Mrs. Nan's temperament, he heard that he Wouldn't he be so angry that he wanted to bring a brothel girl home, so no matter what Yurao hinted, he never let go of it.Yuluo knew that although Nan Chengyan was lustful but cowardly, she made up her mind to blackmail him severely, and often asked for some gold and silver accessories. Nan Chengyan couldn't save face, so she gave away her mother's dowry decorations.

On that day, he stole another gold hairpin from his mother's box, but was discovered by Guanshi Zhang and reported to Mrs. Nan. Mrs. Nan had heard about his son's behavior for a long time, and when she heard Nan Cheng's words, she actually stole her dowry Give it to a girl in a brothel, and immediately get angry, so she has to discipline her son well.Unexpectedly, the guy said something stubborn, seeing Mrs. Nan was angry and wanted to impose family law, Sa Yazi ran out.

While running, he shouted: "Good old woman, I just took you a golden hairpin, and you want someone to beat me. My own son is no match for a golden hairpin. I don't think this son will do it!" At that time Mrs. Nan was so angry that she vomited blood and fell ill on the bed. After Nan Chengyan heard about it, she didn't go home and stayed at Yuluo's place. She even sent a letter to sever the relationship between mother and child. He was so angry that he didn't catch his breath, and passed out directly.

But that Yurao was not a lamp to save money. Nan Chengyan stayed with her for a few days, and after squandering all the money on his body, he was swept out of the house. The door had already been closed, so Mrs. Nan couldn't go back, but he still owed the old bustard of the brothel dozens of taels of silver, and he was being chased after him. When he was feeling worried, the friend he met in the brothel suddenly appeared.

There is an ancient poem that no one knows when you are poor in the busy city, but there are visitors who come to you when you are rich in the mountains.Originally, Nan Chengyan relied on his family's wealth to spend recklessly, and had a close relationship with those dudes in Pulan City. Yan's life disappeared completely.

Ever since he was kicked out by the old bustard in the brothel, Nan Chengyan has been heaving a sigh of relief.Since he had already gotten into a stalemate with Mrs. Nan, for the sake of his own face, the Nan family naturally couldn't go back, but now even the stone record that he relied on to make a living has collapsed. Like a headless fly, he was looking for those cronies from back then, but the door was closed everywhere. Even if he begged lowly, he was rejected thousands of miles away, wishing to tear those snobbish villains into pieces.

Coincidentally, the friend who once drank flower wine with him suddenly appeared in front of him. After thinking for a long time, he remembered that the man once called himself Liu Hu, and he was the shopkeeper of the home shop in the city.Nan Chengyan was so excited that he finally met a noble person who didn't dislike his downfall. He wished he could stick to the other person like a piece of dog skin plaster.

"Brother Liu, I didn't expect to meet Brother Liu here today. It's a coincidence," Nan Chengyan looked respectful and humble, completely different from his previous look of being defiant. He looked nervously at Liu Hu's expression , for fear that the other party would leave in a huff when they learned of the downfall of the Nan family.

Unexpectedly, the other party didn't dislike him at all, and called him brothers and sisters as before, and went to Wangjiang Tower to order a table of delicious food.

After drinking for three rounds, Liu Hu saw that Nan Chengyan was no longer as arrogant as before, so he inevitably asked tentatively, "Brother Nan, I saw Brother Nan describe him very well a few days ago, why did he lose so much weight after not seeing him for a few days?"

"Brother Liu doesn't know something," Nan Chengyan thought that this person hadn't heard anything about the Nan family. He was overjoyed, but he couldn't say it directly. His eyes turned and he thought, and said, "It's not true. To tell you the truth, my little brother was disturbed by something recently, and almost couldn't sleep all night, alas!"

"Oh? Brother Nan, can you tell me what happened to you? If I can help you, I will try my best to help!" Liu Hu put down his wine glass after hearing this, with a serious expression on his face.

Nan Chengyan saw this person took the bait, so his expression darkened again, and he sighed softly, with a little sadness in his sigh, "Brother Liu, do you know that I have an old friend in Zuihualou, Yu Rao, who was the one who brushed me last time?" The stunning woman Yangqin was drinking for our brothers. I fell in love with her and wanted to redeem her from the brothel, but when my mother heard about this, she was furious and threatened to sever the mother-child relationship with Nan, making Nan a few I want to break my heart. But I hold Miss Yuluo in my heart, and I absolutely don't want to let Miss Yuluo fall into that troubled world, and the old bustard heard that I want to redeem Miss Yuluo's body, so she opened her mouth and asked for 1000 taels of silver, but Nanmou really couldn't come up with these, but he couldn't think of a way for a while, so he had to order Miss Yuluo to wait for news from Nanmou in Zuihualou. These days, I heard that the dissatisfied bustard forced Miss Yuluo to pick up guests. If he refuses to die, Nan will be heartbroken when he hears about it."

As Nan Chengyan spoke, he took out a veil and wiped it gently at the corners of his eyes, his face full of grievances.

"Ah, there is such a thing. Brother Nan is really chivalrous. I didn't expect that old bustard to be so hateful. Isn't this taking advantage of the fire!" Liu Hu comforted with half sympathy and half regret, "Brother Nan, please be safe. Cao, although Liu's family is not as rich as Brother Nan's, there is no reason to sit idly by seeing Brother Nan like this. I only have 50 taels of silver here. Please take it away, Brother Nan. Although the amount is quite small, Brother Nan can save some more , I can always get together a thousand taels of silver, please don't dislike Brother Nan."

Nan Chengyan declined for a while, stretched out his hand to take the silver that Liu Hu handed over, and thanked him again and again: "Thank you Brother Liu, it would be too hypocritical for Nan to say thank you, so I won't thank you for your kindness. Big brother has something to do, just tell the younger brother, and the younger brother will definitely go through fire and water."

Thinking back when Nan Cheng was full of words, who didn't want to call him big brother, but today for a mere 50 taels of silver, he was willing to bow his knees and surrender his status, which made Liu Hu really amazed. Liu Hu looked at him holding the purse in his hand With an expression of pretending to be calm on his face but ecstatic in his eyes, he couldn't help feeling a little disgusted in his heart, but he still held his glass of wine with a smile on his face and said, "Brother Nan's words are out of the question, who is going to be with whom, it's just Liu A certain business urgently needs funds now, so he doesn’t have much cash on hand, so he can’t help brother Nan too much. However, after listening to brother Nan’s story about his relationship with Miss Yuluo, Liu is really moved. Brother Ruonan trusts Liu. , Liu suddenly thought of a good way to get money."

"What way?" When Nan Chengyan heard that there was money to take, he couldn't care less about politeness, and immediately looked at Liu Hu with bright eyes.

"Well, Liu just thought of it suddenly, and I really don't know if I can help Brother Nan." Seeing that the other party is so concerned, Liu Hu shook his head a little uncertainly, "But this is too risky, that's all. I advise Brother Nan not to take this risk."

But Nan Chengyan had already been aroused by Liu Hu's words just now. What he lacked the most at this time was silver. Hearing that there was a way to make money, he wished he could be eaten by a hungry wolf. He didn't care about the risks and dangers, so he begged: "Brother Liu, just tell me, I'm not afraid of any risks for Yurao's sake!"

"Since that's the case, Mr. Liu doesn't want to be fooled. Brother Nan, have you ever heard of Hutou Village in Pulan City?" A strange light flashed in Liu Hu's eyes, but the eyes were fleeting, and Nan Chengyan only wanted to ask The way to get the money, I had been staring at Liu Hu's mouth with all my heart, wishing that I would get a lot of money immediately, when I heard Liu Hu's words, I bowed my head and thought for a while, then nodded with slight doubts.

"Since Brother Nan knows Hutou Village, but who are the people who went to that village?" Liu Hu deliberately kept his words hidden to arouse Nan Chengyan's curiosity. As soon as Liu Hu was induced, he bit the hook.

"Did Brother Liu mean..." Liu Hu nodded, but Nan Chengyan seemed more hesitant.

"Although this method brings in money very quickly, the risk is also extremely high. It is reasonable for Brother Nan not to take risks. Besides, Miss Yuluo is still in the top position in Zuihualou. If she wants to come to the bustard, she will not deliberately make things difficult. According to Liu In my opinion, brother Nan should think of another way."

But who would have thought that after listening to Liu Hu's words, Nan Chengyan slapped the table, "Brother Liu, for the sake of Yu Rao, someone from Nan is willing to take even the greatest risk, but Nan is really tight right now..."

Liu Hu secretly laughed in his heart, this Nan Cheng's words really couldn't help being provocative, and he picked out this guy's vindictiveness in just a few words, but now the matter has only just begun, and the good show is yet to come, so he stared at Nan Cheng with a sinking face. Cheng Yan said softly: "Brother Nan is so forgetful, didn't he still have 50 taels of silver lying in the purse just now?"

"Brother, I was joking. In fact, just now, Nan was thinking that these silver coins were gifted by Brother Liu, so he hesitated in his heart and dared not use them rashly. He didn't expect Brother Liu to be so open-minded," Nan Chengyan stood up and bowed slightly after finishing speaking. But not long after he sat down, he heard Liu Hu calling the servant next to him, ordering another 50 taels of bank note to be paid in advance from the shop, and handed it to Nan Chengyan, who had already thanked Nan Chengyan excitedly.

After the meal, the two got up and went to Hutouzhuang. Although Nan Chengyan was uneasy, he strengthened his faith when he thought of the silver billowing in.

As soon as he arrived at Hutouzhuang, someone recognized Nan Chengyan and was led into the inner room by the servant.There was only a commotion in the room, a dozen people gathered around a square table and shouted loudly. Nan Cheng Yan was so happy with the excitement, he also leaned forward to look forward.

There were three bamboo tubes placed on the square table, and the people standing beside the table were divided into two groups, with some silver taels thrown in front of each of them, shouting "open wide open wide!" and several people at the other end excitedly shouted " Open small, I bet this game must be small!"

The noisy voice made Nan Chengyan even more excited. He reached out and took out a piece of silver, slapped it on the table, and shouted, "Master, too!" After speaking, he happily dragged a stool and sat down in front of the table.

Everyone gathered around the table, seeing the bamboo tube swaying in front of them, and then settled on the table, waiting for the result of the opening without daring to breathe, only regretting that they didn't have the ability to predict, so that they could collect all the wealth in front of them.
