Alienated Martial Arts

Feng Zhuo turned his head and looked towards the door.

His body couldn't help but tremble, and the enthusiastic expression on his face disappeared, becoming stiff and numb again.

Wei Tao stepped into the door and looked at her expressionlessly.

"What you just said was very interesting, and I was very happy to hear it. Why don't you continue?"

He looked directly into Feng Zhuo's eyes.

His eyes were cold and terrifying, like a tiger that had found its prey and was looking for a place to bite.

"I, I didn't say anything, I just have a good thing that can earn me money and I want to share it with Sister Zheng."

As Feng Zhuo spoke, he subconsciously stood up and walked outside.

She didn't know why she was afraid, or why she didn't even dare to continue talking when facing the Wei boy.

But she could clearly feel that the young man in front of her, who was thin and frail a few months ago but was now strong and strong, was extremely hostile to her.

If you stay here and don't leave, even if you have the blessing of the goddess, you will probably be beaten violently by him, and you may even lose your life in this room.

Feng Zhuang panicked and didn't choose the right path. He bumped his head against the door frame and ignored it. He quickly walked out of the courtyard and disappeared without a trace.

Wei Tao put down what he was carrying and his expression turned gentle.

He looked at Zheng Suyun, who was a little confused, and said with a smile, "I just ran to the jade workshop to pick up my mother and sister from work. I didn't expect you to come back after lunch."

"Oh, where's the eldest sister? Why didn't you see her?"

"Xiao Xiao went to buy pig head meat. She got paid today and she has already thought about buying more meat to replenish your health."

Zheng Suyun stared at Wei Tao non-stop, and for a moment it was even hard to accept. Is it really his thin brother Tao in front of him?

"The food in the martial arts school is very good. I eat enough fat every day. Plus I work out every day, so I've grown a little taller." Wei Tao saw the confusion in her eyes and explained with a smile.

"Okay, I'm going to find my eldest sister now. Mother is home alone and locks the door.

If you are not one of your own family, don't open the door to anyone coming. "

As he spoke, he walked outside, but stopped after a few steps and said in a serious tone, "That woman just now was not normal. Mother, please don't meet her again."

"Brother Tao, don't worry.

I didn't believe what she said either.

How could it be possible to do nothing?

You can get food and money for free,

Isn't this obviously a lie?

Even those pigs raised in captivity,

In the end, wouldn't he be slaughtered with a knife if he got fat and even the skin and bones would have to be returned to others? "

Zheng Suyun followed behind, having recovered from the confusion just now. Now he looked at the tall and tall Wei Tao, his eyes filled with joy.

After finding Wei Xing, they picked up Wei Rongxing who was returning home outside Yaoshi Alley. The three of them each carried large and small bags of food. After returning home, they filled the entire dining table.

It was almost dusk, and the family sat together, with various meat dishes in the middle, and two candles were lit extravagantly.

Wei Rongxing sat in the main seat, a hint of distress flashed across his face.

He let out a long sigh.

"I bought a piece of meat, and Da Nier bought a piece of meat.

Brother Tao bought two roast chickens and added ten portions of meat.

There are so many steamed buns and flatbreads, what should I do? "

Snapped!

Wei Tao opened the jar of shochu, poured it full for himself and Wei Rongxing, and said with a smile, "Nothing to do. Braised pork with wine is a rare delicacy, just eat it."

He suddenly remembered something, took out two sterling silver hairpins from the cloth bag on the side, and handed them to Wei Xin.

"Sister, I bought this for you. Put it on and see if it fits you."

"It's really for me!?"

There was an expression of surprise on Wei Xun's face. She took the hairpins into her hand with some disbelief, weighed their weight, and couldn't help but let out a low breath.

She muttered a little, "It's so heavy and the workmanship is exquisite. It must cost a lot of money."

"As long as eldest sister likes it, it doesn't cost much."

"Brother Tao, you prodigal kid, why are you buying these useless things? Even if you make money in the martial arts gym, you should save it for emergencies."

Zheng Suyun seemed to want to say something more, but looking at Wei Xin's happy face, he didn't say it after all.

Wei Tao picked up a chopstick and ate the beef, then said to Wei Rongxing who was sitting at the head table, "Father, after finishing this meal, we have to move."

"move place?"

“Who moves, what house they move to, and where they move to?”

Wei Rongxing's hand holding the wine bowl froze in mid-air, his expression a little dazed, and he looked at Wei Tao aside.

"The environment in Yaoshi Lane is not very good, so I bought a house there and it's ready to move in." Wei Tao said casually while still eating his food.

At the dinner table, upon hearing Wei Tao's words, Wei's mother Zheng Suyun and sister Wei Xin put down their bowls and chopsticks and turned to look at him.

"Where is that house?" Zheng Suyun was a little curious.

"It's on Yufang Street, not too far from where my mother and sister work."

"Yufang Street..." Wei Xun opened her mouth, pinched herself hard with her hand under the table, and then muttered to herself, "The house there is really valuable."

Wei Tao picked up a handful of vegetables with chopsticks and said with a smile, "It's not bad, mainly because that place is relatively close to where my mother and eldest sister work, and there are city defense troops patrolling at night. It's safer than here anyway."

Wei Rongxing tasted the soju in the bowl bit by bit and said nothing from the beginning to the end.

Although Yufang Street and Yaoshi Alley are just different streets and alleys in terms of naming, they are completely different worlds in the entire outer city.

Moreover, he had heard about the houses on Yufang Street before when he was working. Every single-family house cost at least dozens of taels of silver to buy, which was definitely a huge sum of money. payment.

At least it can ensure that their family of four will have enough food and clothing for several years.

As a result, now everyone is still huddled in a small dark room in Yaoshi Lane, eating braised vegetables, and only occasionally dares to get a meal of meat if they are cruel. Brother Tao actually directly said that he bought a house in Yufang Street?

Wei Rongxing seemed to want to say something, but couldn't say a word. He just stared blankly at the house they lived in now.

It was cramped, damp and dark.

Just all its features.

But the sudden mention of moving still made him feel like he was in a dream.

Wei Tao observed their reactions and couldn't help but smile and said, "It's not too late now. Why don't we take a walk over after dinner and take a look at our new house? We can stay there at night and don't have to come back here." ”

Only then did Wei Rongxing suddenly come back to his senses, stared into Wei Tao's eyes and asked, "Brother Tao really bought a house?"

Wei Tao nodded.

"How much did it cost?"

"A few dozen taels of silver. Since I became an official disciple of the martial arts school, I have done some tasks, and later became a manager, so I have made a lot of income."

"What kind of mission is it? Is it dangerous?" Zheng Suyun asked.

"It's not dangerous. If it's really too dangerous, we won't do it." Wei Tao responded casually.

Wei Rongxing suddenly looked serious, "Brother Tao said he became a steward, where did he become a steward?"

"The steward of the martial arts school. The teacher saw that I was nimble in my work, had studied literature, and was good at accounting and keeping accounts, so he made me the steward. I arranged the daily affairs of the martial arts school and the purchase of supplies, and managed the servants and cooks below."

"Brother Tao, the money you spent to buy the house won't be..." Wei Rongxing hesitated.

Wei Tao smiled and said, "Where did my father go? Master Zhou treats me well, how could I do such an outrageous thing?"

"That's good, that's good. According to Brother Tao, we will go over and take a look at the newly purchased house after dinner."

Wei Rongxing drank half a bowl of soju in one gulp, his eyes suddenly turned red, and his words were slightly hoarse and choked.
