Water Margin: Hu Sanniang and I swapped clothes
Chapter 9 Sun Li: Brother, you've finally figured it out!
mistress?
Hu Sanniang had already inquired about Xiao San'er from another member of the Huo family, Xiao Si'er, and knew about him.
At the time, Hu Sanniang was curious as to why all the other Huo families had come to work, but Xiao San'er was the only one missing.
Only now do I realize that Xiao San'er was sent to the city by Sister-in-law Gu to invite Sun Li.
The mistress rubbed her hips with a miserable expression:
"My sister-in-law kicked me, and it still hurts..."
Hu Sanniang frowned slightly: "Why did that bitch kick you?"
"hiss--"
Sun Li and Xiao San'er both gasped in surprise:
My second brother has really stood up for himself; he even dares to call her a "female tiger"—a despicable woman!
"I don't know..."
Xiao San'er cautiously glanced at Hu San Niang:
"Perhaps my sister-in-law is very hot-tempered, and she's taking it out on the younger one..."
"That filthy jerk is incredibly rude!"
Hu Sanniang snorted coldly and took out a piece of silver to give to him:
Thank you for your trouble.
"hiss--"
Sun Li and Xiao San'er both gasped in surprise.
It seems my second brother has really started to stand up for himself!
I have money in my pocket now!
"Thank you, Second Brother!"
The mistress accepted the loose change with a beaming smile and happily ran off to work at the hotel.
"Brother, it is true."
Hu Sanniang solemnly replied to Sun Li:
"Is your brother here to mediate?"
As the saying goes, "It's better to tear down ten temples than to break up one marriage."
These days, people believe in reconciliation rather than separation, so Hu Sanniang thought Sun Li must have come to mediate.
The eldest brother is like a father, and what's more, Sun Xin's parents died early, and he was raised by Sun Li with great care.
If Sun Li were to try to reconcile them, Hu Sanniang, standing in Sun Xin's shoes, really wouldn't know how to respond.
If all else fails, the only option is for the brothers to turn against each other...
Hu Sanniang was somewhat flustered.
Sun Li's sudden arrival disrupted her rhythm and caught her off guard.
The main reason is that the education she received from childhood did not support her doing something like turning against her brothers.
Besides, she's only just turned eighteen this year and has always been a girl. She's not a professional man!
However, to her surprise, Sun Li was so excited he almost cried, and he held her hands tightly, saying:
"Brother, you've finally figured it out!"
"ha?"
Hu Sanniang looked completely bewildered, while Sun Li looked at his bruised and swollen younger brother with heartache:
"I advised you to divorce that crazy woman a long time ago, but you always said that even a day as husband and wife is worth a hundred days of kindness!"
Look at your face...
"What kindness has that crazy woman ever shown you?"
As he spoke, Sun Li raised his hand as if to gently touch the bruises on Hu Sanniang's face, but ultimately couldn't bring himself to do it:
"It's better that we're divorced!"
"You don't need to worry about that crazy woman going back on her word. Just say the word, and your brother will do it for you!"
"Oh, this..."
Hu Sanniang was prepared for her brothers to turn against each other, but she never expected that Sun Li would support her.
Just like her own brother Hu Cheng, no matter what she does, Hu Cheng will always support her...
Her nose felt a little sore, and Hu Sanniang pursed her lips, nodding gratefully.
"Thank you, brother!"
"We're brothers, why should I say thank you?"
Sun Li's raised hand finally landed on Hu Sanniang's shoulder:
"Brother, that crazy woman is petty and vindictive!"
"If she retaliates against you, just tell your brother!"
"My brother has a hundred ways to mess with her!"
"elder brother……"
Hu Sanniang was at a loss for words.
After she was resurrected in another's body, she was filled with fear and unease.
But at this moment, Sun Li, her adopted brother, gave her an unprecedented sense of security.
Even her own brother, Hu Cheng, could only endure the forced marriage in the face of the powerful Zhu Family Village.
But Sun Li, her adopted brother, made her feel that even if the sky fell, he would hold it up for her!
"Alright, I'm relieved to know you really want a divorce!"
Sun Li seemed to have a huge weight lifted from his heart, and patted Hu Sanniang on the shoulder with satisfaction:
"I have official business to attend to, so I'm heading back to the city first."
"If that crazy woman comes back and causes trouble, send someone to the city to find me, and I'll deal with her!"
Hu Sanniang nodded gratefully, and Sun Li mounted his horse and hurriedly left with several soldiers.
After Sun Li left, the pot-bellied man came over again and asked:
"Shopkeeper, are you still selling this shop?"
Hu Sanniang: "...Sell!"
...Sun Xin Line...
Outside Zhujiazhuang, on the battlefield between the two armies.
"Knock knock knock..."
The war drums thundered, and the banners fluttered like a forest.
Zhu Long, the eldest of the "Three Heroes of the Zhu Family," spurred his horse forward and shouted:
"With Zhu Long here, who dares to fight me!"
"Lin Chong, the 'Leopard Head,' has arrived!"
Lin Chong, wielding his eighteen-foot spear, met Zhu Long head-on. The two fought for over twenty rounds without a clear victor.
Song Jiang looked around, and Mu Hong, who was "unrestrained," understood immediately and rushed forward to assist Lin Chong.
Zhu Hu was furious. He drew his sword, mounted his horse, and helped Zhu Long stop Mu Hong.
"Iron Flute Immortal" Ma Lin once again charged forward with twin swords to assist Mu Hong.
Zhu Biao was also furious. He dropped his gun, leaped onto his horse, and helped Zhu Hu stop Ma Lin.
Six men and six horses, paired off to fight.
Zhu Chaofeng, the old patriarch of Zhu Family Manor and father of the "Three Heroes of the Zhu Family," sat on the manor gate watching the battle.
Worried that his son would be taken advantage of, Zhu Chaofeng quickly asked Luan Tingyu to back him up:
"Please, teacher, do not let anything happen to my son."
Luan Tingyu, nicknamed "Iron Rod," possessed unparalleled bravery and was both a teacher in the Zhu Family Village and the mentor of the "Three Heroes of the Zhu Family."
Luan Tingyu then bid farewell to Zhu Chaofeng, left the manor, took his iron hammer, mounted his horse, brandished his spear, and charged out.
As a result, Zhu Chaofeng had no major generals besides Hu Cheng.
Zhu Chaofeng also wanted to send Hu Cheng away:
"Nephew, why don't you go and lend your brother-in-law a hand?"
"Don't worry, Uncle!"
Hu Cheng, who had always appeared humble, polite, gentle, and kind, suddenly revealed murderous intent in his eyes, drawing his sword and approaching Zhu Chaofeng.
"I'll see you off first, then I'll go see your son off!"
"My dear nephew, you—"
Zhu Chaofeng's face changed drastically. He still wanted to use his silver tongue to persuade Hu Cheng, but Hu Cheng had already brought his sword down:
"Pfft!"
After beheading Zhu Chaofeng, Hu Cheng held the head in his left hand and the knife in his right, and gave orders to the servants he had brought with him:
"Proceed according to plan!"
Meanwhile, Song Jiang was anxiously awaiting the changes within the Zhu Family Village.
Although everything had been agreed upon the night before, Song Jiang still couldn't help feeling uneasy and anxious as the moment approached.
The burly man with thick eyebrows, large eyes, a bright red face, and a beard as thick as wire, observed Sun Xin's expression and asked:
"Third Sister, I hope nothing has happened to your brother?"
Last night in the central command tent, it was this fellow who, observing Song Jiang's words and expressions, acted as Song Jiang's mouthpiece.
Sun Xin now knew who this fellow was; he was none other than the leader of the "Eight Naval Generals" of Liangshan Marsh—
Li Jun, the "River Dragon"!
Sun Xin didn't know if Hu Cheng was reliable or not, but at this point, he had no choice but to trust Hu Cheng.
"Won't."
Sun Xin said with certainty.
As luck would have it, a raging fire suddenly broke out in Zhu Family Village at that moment!
The fire started fiercely, as if many people had set fire to various corners of Zhujiazhuang at the same time!
In the blink of an eye, Zhu Family Village was turned into a sea of fire!
