Old Guo, who had never expected Lu Xuan to suddenly ask such a question, fell silent!
Lu Xuan's 'if' didn't mean 'if' to him, but rather, it was something that could really happen.
Because he knew his youngest son too well. He relied on his father, who held real power, to be arrogant and despotic. Over the years, he had done many things that gave him a headache!
However, his silence wasn't because he was worried that this matter would bring trouble to Lu Xuan!
It was just that he had not expected Lu Xuan to have considered this aspect of the matter, and to be so calm and composed.
Just based on this point alone, Lu Xuan was stronger than his son!
After his impression of Lu Xuan unknowingly deepened, Old Guo calmly asked,""Since it's an 'if'. Then Uncle Guo will also ask you if!"
"If the things you've imagined really happen in the future, how will you face it? From the conversation between Uncle Guo and the old company commander just now, you should have guessed Uncle Guo's identity! Facing a competitor with such a father, do you dare to draw your sword?”
Upon hearing this, Old Master Lu surprisingly didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at Lu Xuan with a calm expression!
He knew that Old Guo was testing Lu Xuan, so he wanted to see how his son would react!
"Draw your sword?"
The corner of Lu Xuan's mouth twitched slightly. As expected, the words of these old soldiers who had crawled out of the trenches were different. It was originally just a plain sentence, but when it came out of their mouths, it was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
"It depends on the other party's attitude!”
After pondering for a moment, Lu Xuan raised his head and said with a smile,""If the other party bullies me and wants to stand on my head and shit, I can only drag him along with me! In any case, the barefooted were not afraid of the ones wearing shoes. Right, Uncle Guo?"
Hearing this, Old Guo was slightly stunned before he laughed out loud."Good boy, your baleful aura is so strong! You have the demeanor of your father when he was young!”
"You have guts!"
Old Master Lu also laughed out loud after Lu Xuan finished speaking.""Son, if you really like this child Shi Yufei, feel free to go to your own world. I'll say this today. I don't care whose son he is. If he angers me, I'll go to their house with a bomb bag. Anyway, I don't have many years left to live! Also, even though your dad is only a junior officer until he retires, he's not as bad as you think!”
Hearing Old Master Lu's vicious words, Old Guo secretly wiped his sweat and hurriedly said,"It's serious, Old Company Commander! Others may not know you, but how can I not know you? Even if you retire now, any one of those soldiers under you back then will be a fierce general! Take me for example, wasn't I also a soldier under you back then!”
"Haha, I was just saying. I'm just saying!"
Old Master Lu laughed and waved his hand."We're all old now. It's the world of the young!”
"Ah!"
At this moment, a scream suddenly came from the central room.
Immediately after, Mrs. Lu ran out of the hall with a pale face and shouted at Lu Xuan,""Lu Xuan, come here!"
"Eh?"
Looking at the pale-faced boss running out of the hall, Old Master Lu blinked in confusion and said,"You're already in your seventies or eighties. Why are you still so timid? She was so shocked that she looked like a little lady!”
Hearing this, Old Guo could not help but laugh."Haha, in the eyes of the old company commander, isn't sister-in-law just a little lady?”
Although the two old fellows were chatting and laughing, Lu Xuan didn't dare to be negligent. He hurriedly ran to Mrs. Lu and asked with concern,""Mom, what's wrong?"
"Come in!"
Mrs. Lu glanced at Old Guo before pulling Lu Xuan into the central room.
As soon as they entered the central room, Mrs. Lu twisted the bag over and opened it in front of Lu Xuan." What…what's with these property ownership certificates?”
Seeing this, Lu Xuan immediately understood. Obviously, his mother was shocked by the bag of property ownership certificates!
Although his parents already knew that he had stolen bitcoins and picked up scraps at the antique street, those comparisons were just a string of numbers, so the two elders didn't have much of a reaction. However, there was a bag of property ownership certificates in front of him. Anyone would be shocked to see so many red property ownership certificates.
"I thought Mom was scared by cockroaches again!”
Lu Xuan shook his head and smiled." Don't worry, Mom. This is all legal!" It was a building that his son bought when he went to the provincial capital before the new year…No, it should be a building!”
"You bought a building?"
Mrs. Lu's eyes widened instantly. Realizing that she had lost her composure, she quickly lowered her voice and said anxiously,"Are you crazy? Why did you buy so many?"
"An investment!"
Lu Xuan blinked and chuckled.""Mom, don't worry! Didn't Dad say that it's the world of the young now? You two should just enjoy life in peace!”
"Alright, alright, alright. You're starting to dislike Mom for being old!”
Even though Mrs. Lu sounded displeased, she couldn't hide the happiness on her face. She quickly put away the property ownership certificate and said with a smile,"I've lived my life in vain. I've been with your father for decades and I've only managed to build this house…However, I'm happy to see that all of you are more promising than that old man!”
……
At the same time.
Pingle Town Treasure Trove Pavilion.
In the octagonal pavilion, the master sat on an elm chair and looked at Shi Junxian, who was standing respectfully in front of him. He said indifferently,"Old Guo just arrived at Pingle Town and you already know about it! It seems that you and Old Third Guo are getting closer and closer!”
"Father!"
"I don't know why you oppose this matter, but if we can build a relationship with the Guo Family, Treasure Trove Pavilion will be able to rest easy for the next fifty years!" Shi Junxian raised his head and said in a deep voice. I know you love Yufei, but I watched Yufei grow up. I've always treated her like my own daughter! However, being born into a family like ours, there are many things that you can't control. If one wanted to become a qualified successor of the family, one had to abandon personal interests and prioritize the core of the family! Only in this way could a family have a long history and be passed down from generation to generation! In this matter, I don't think I did anything wrong!”
"Yes, I am. Indeed!"
"You didn't do anything wrong!" The master nodded. Your mistake was to limit your vision to Guo Laosan. It was undeniable that the Guo family had a huge influence in the three southwestern provinces, and Guo Jingzhong's disciples were spread all over the country. However, whether it was today's society or the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties, they could not do without one core. That was…a new emperor, a new courtier. Let's not talk about why Guo Jingzhong retired. Just take his third son as an example. He relied on his powerful father to be ignorant and incompetent all day long. We outsiders can see this. Could it be that Guo Jingzhong doesn't know? He might dote on his third brother, but he would never let him enter the vortex of the system! Because Guo Laosan wasn't cut out to be a trendsetter. If Guo Jingzhong really sends this ignorant and incompetent third brother into the system, I can tell you with certainty that Guo Jingzhong will definitely lose his integrity in his later years!”
"I'll say it again, don't interfere with Yufei's marriage! No matter who she chooses in the future, what we need to do is to support her and pass down Treasure Trove Pavilion!”
"In addition, I'll give you another piece of news!”
The master picked up the teacup beside him and said indifferently,"Guo Jingzhong has indeed arrived in Pingle Town, but he didn't go to meet the system workers who were waiting to receive him. Instead, he avoided these people and went to the Lu family! Don't misunderstand, he wasn't going to see Lu Xuan, but Lu Xuan's father!”
"Do you know why?"
Looking at Shi Junxian, who had raised his head in shock, the master took a sip and continued,"Because when Guo Jingzhong first joined the army, he was a new recruit under Old Master Lu!”
Hiss...
When he heard that Guo Jingzhong, who had been an official all the way to the border, was actually a new recruit under Old Master Lu when he was young, Shi Junxian could not help but suck in a breath of cold air!
One had to know that when he first met Lu Xuan, he had already done some research on Lu Xuan's background. When he learned that Lu Xuan's father was only a retired official, he was still hoping that Lu Xuan, who had appeared out of nowhere and wanted to kidnap his Shi family's eldest daughter, Cheng Yaojin, would not be difficult to deal with!
However, after hearing this news, he knew that his plan and the agreement he had reached with the third son of the Guo family were completely ruined!
He could guess with his toes that Guo Jingzhong was not the only old subordinate of the Lu family's old master who did not seem to show his talents!
Otherwise, with Guo Jingzhong's influence in the three southwestern provinces, would he be so condescending? Even if the other party was once his superior, he wouldn't go so far as to meet him!
At the thought of this, Shi Junxian immediately collapsed like a deflated ball.
