Chapter 101: Literary Work

Since they met each other, Xiao Tianyou and Mu Shuwen have been competing in secret. After living in Zhengjiazhuang, they all wanted to find a breakthrough from the Xiao family's tribe members. However, with an opponent, if the other party slanders, the simpler things will not be easy. Of course, on the surface, the two gangs get along very well, and often they act together to visit the family of the leader of the Zhengjiazhuang Brotherhood, such as Zheng Biao's father Zheng Baihu. However, the two had no gains. Zheng Baihu was pretending to be confused and could not explain anything clearly, without revealing any words.

They visited Xiao Tianlei's parents, Xiao Qinghe and Jiang. They were surprised. Xiao Tianlei's parents are just ordinary people, so how could they give birth to a handsome son like Xiao Tianlei? As for the conversation, they had no common language. They all talked about trivial matters. The most discussed were the pigs and crops in the fields at home.

Xiao Tianyou is fine, but he still knows some things related to people's livelihood and is also interested. As a junior of Xiao Qinghe, he can also let go and follow Jiang to see the big fat pigs at home. In comparison, Mu Shuwen is not good. Mu Shuwen was born in Zhenguo Mansion and has a noble status since he was a child. He studied and studied literature every day and has never been exposed to these things in the countryside. Moreover, in his opinion, they are all low-key businesses, disdainful and go to see fat pigs and so on. He originally wanted to go and take a look with Xiao Tianyou, but he smelled the stench from the pigpen from afar and almost vomited it out, so he quickly avoided it.

After walking around like this, apart from the scholars of the Xiao family like Xiao Qingyun, they could say a few words. The others, Mu Shuwen had no idea what to say at all. He couldn't help but deeply doubt that these people understood national affairs? Mu Shuwen really guessed correctly. These people really didn't understand national affairs and didn't care.

However, Mu Shuwen was not without gains. However, the more he understood, the more he became, the more he became more confused and puzzled about the style of the Brotherhood.

The leaders of the Brotherhood clearly have such a large power and so much money, but what they do is definitely considered an unusual category in the eyes of ordinary people. The normal practice is of course, after they become rich, they have to enjoy themselves, at least build houses and buy slaves, so that their clan members can live a rich and decent life. The leaders of the Brotherhood do not do this at all, and the clan members seem to have been forgotten by them. Even if the brotherhood is powerful or rich, the brotherhood leaders do not get much benefits for their family members, and they are basically treated the same as the families of other brotherhood members. No matter what they want, they have to work for themselves.

Mu Shuwen contacted some tribe members of the Xiao family and heard them complain secretly that the brotherhood had developed and had not fallen into any benefits, and he would be implicated even if he became a thief. But there was no way, he could only look at it and could only expect his children to enter the brotherhood. As a result, even if his children entered the brotherhood, they all seemed to be different, and they didn't listen to their words, and they did everything according to the rules of the brotherhood.

After a few days, Mu Shuwen couldn't find a breakthrough. Fortunately, with Xiao Tianrong and Xiao Tianlu, Mu Shuwen finally found an opportunity to discuss with Mr. Xiao in detail and contact the members of the Xiao family. He believed that Mr. Xiao was the only person who could communicate with the Xiao family, and could understand some truths, and the only person who might have an influence on boys such as Xiao Tianlei. After all, he is the patriarch. According to general principles, all tribe members have to obey the patriarch, let alone he is the grandfather of Xiao Tianlei and others.

"Uncle, the Brotherhood has only succeeded for a while. Now most of the soldiers and generals of the court are fighting in the northern border, so I can't make a move. Otherwise, the Brotherhood can't be so free. The court has many soldiers and a wide range of generals, and there are many strange people to help. The Brotherhood is angry with the power of heaven. If it does not surrender, the court will inevitably transfer a large army. The Brotherhood will be unlucky. At that time, the people of Lingzhou will also suffer from war disasters. Moreover, you and my family are old friends. The Xiao family in Langya County has been loyal and kind for all generations and have been for the country and the people. My old lady cannot bear to see the Xiao family rebellious and use our Zhenguo as a guarantee. If the Brotherhood is willing to surrender to the court, she will definitely not be punished. As long as she is willing to serve the country, make meritorious contributions, and revitalize the Xiao family, it is natural and a blessing for the world."

Mu Shuwen said a long sentence and tried to convince Mr. Xiao, to move him with emotion and reason, and to use both soft and hard, and to tell him various benefits. In addition, Xiao Tianrong and Xiao Tianlu were also constantly beating and drumming while playing. Mr. Xiao was really a little moved. If it really succeeds, it would not be a thief, and there might even be a wonderful prospect for obtaining an official position. However, this kind of thing is not that simple! Although Mr. Xiao is old, it is not that easy to coax. Mu Shuwen has made all his promises. As for the disadvantages, Mr. Xiao can also think that once he surrenders to the court, his life will be in the hands of others. He will do whatever he wants, and life and death will be by others? How powerful the Xiao family in Langya County was, and an imperial edict made the whole clan disperse and miserable.

It was precisely because of such a painful lesson that I actually had some resistance to the court. I hoped that the children in the clan would have a bright future and that there was no way to shine the family. Who would have thought that Xiao Tianlei and his boys had really done a great job and the court would have to send people to appease him. Besides, even if he was willing, those boys of the Brotherhood would agree to the matter of handing over life and death to others? Those Shanyue people would agree? Can the court really tolerate it? Will the accounts settled in the autumn? Besides, the Brotherhood had more than a few leaders. His words, Xiao

Tianlei and the others listened to it. Originally, brothers had a charter for the Brotherhood to do things. Although they acted more arrogantly and had a bad reputation, they did not do any serious evil. Besides, Mr. Xiao personally experienced and saw it with his own eyes and could see that there were some tricks hidden in everything the Brotherhood did. Wouldn't Xie Jin'an admired some of the things that the Brotherhood did? Although Mr. Xiao could not understand the way the Brotherhood did, in terms of effect, it was indeed beneficial to the people's livelihood, and the people of Lingzhou were also considered happy.

Moreover, Mr. Xiao carefully observed the behavior of the boys Xiao Tianlei and his boys. In addition to being domineering, he could be said to be as honest as he could not be more upright. He had no bad habits and was also extremely trustworthy in dealing with the world. Mr. Xiao vaguely felt that these boys might be planning something big, but he was not easy to interrupt. Therefore, after Mu Shuwen finished speaking, Mr. Xiao did not argue, and could only say that he could find an opportunity to mention Xiao Tianlei and others.

Mu Shuwen was a little disappointed, but there was no other way, so he could only wait and talk about it.

Xiao Tianyou soon learned about this matter, and Xiao Tianyou didn't care much. Through the observations in Zhengjiazhuang these days, Xiao Tianyou could see clearly that the members of the Xiao family had basically no influence on Xiao Tianlei and others, and even if they were to say it out loud, it would be useless. However, this also means that it has become a luxury to get artillery through these relatives of Xiao Tianlei.

However, Xiao Tianyou has gained something. He has been observing some people and things in Zhengjiazhuang recently, but he has seen some tricks. The reason why the Brotherhood is powerful is that some of its methods of doing things is an important reason. Just like when Xiao Tianlei instructed the Beiliang Military Workshop to do things, the efficiency of the military workshop has increased by several%. Although the Brotherhood's approach in Lingzhou still does not understand the reasons, he considered whether to copy these things to Beiliang? However, the Brotherhood's methods of doing things are not so easy to learn. Not to mention anything else, just talking about building a house is amazingly fast, which makes the Beiliang craftsmen who accompany him dumbfounded, and they can't even figure out the materials used by the workers.

In just a few days, the new house next to Zhengjiazhuang has been completed, and many families in Zhengjiazhuang are preparing to move into their new homes.

Xiao Tianyou and Mu Shuwen also went to see the new houses. They were naturally much better than the original adobe houses. They were all two-story small buildings. For those who were used to living in large mansions, it was too small and a little. However, each room of these houses had certain functions, which were spacious, bright, comfortable, and had many exquisite and designed and convenient facilities. There were gardens and vegetable fields in front and behind. What surprised Mu Shuwen and Xiao Tianyou was that the members of the Zheng family and Xiao family were also allocated this kind of housing. The benefits of these housing were obvious, which saved a lot of trouble, and did not need any slaves. They also lacked a lot of red tape, which was very fraternal. However, it made Mu Shuwen and Xiao Tianyou increasingly confused. Generally, they rebel for the sake of glory and wealth, but these boys in the Brotherhood did not care at all. They treated their relatives equally. What exactly did they want to do?

No matter what Mu Shuwen, Xiao Tianyou and others think, the family in Zhengjiazhuang happily moved into their new home, and the wedding of Xiao Tianfu and Luo Cuilian is about to begin.

“Wow!!!”

As one of the protagonists of this wedding, on the day Luo Cuilian tried on her wedding dress, all the girls of all sizes came to watch it.

Luo Cuilian's wedding dress was escorted by Qin Jincai personally. Everyone thought it was a bit of a big deal, but when the packaging of this wedding dress was opened and Luo Cuilian put it on, all the women present couldn't help but exclaim and envious. They felt that such a wedding dress really needed a special escort. Although there were not many jewelry on it, they were extremely expensive.

This wedding dress style is completely different from the traditional ones. Especially after Luo Cuilian put it on, everyone saw what it means to turn into a sparrow into a phoenix. Although Luo Cuilian looks good, she is just a village girl. When wearing such a wedding dress, she immediately shines brightly and is full of beauty, and her figure is completely highlighted.

"A bunch of uninformed people! Come on, Aunt Seven, let you open your eyes again!" Qin Jincai's mother raised her head and said proudly. In fact, it was the first time she saw Luo Cuilian wearing this wedding dress, and she was also very surprised. However, she liked to show off. At this time, she had a jewelry box on her hand. She had seen it in advance, and there were even more surprising treasures inside.

"Aunt Seventh Aunt, what treasure is there in the jewelry box? Is it a phoenix crown?"

"Cough, I'll open my eyes and see!"

Xiao Qimei slowly opened the jewelry box and deliberately shone at the sunlight outside the window. This time, everyone saw a dazzling colorful light, which immediately shone.

The girls shook their minds and looked at them again. There were not many jewelry in the jewelry box, but each piece was a treasure, with extremely exquisite workmanship, and it was inlaid with some colorful gems that had never been seen before. The huge one on the necklace, and the dazzling brilliance of the pigeon egg once again completely dazzled the girls' eyes, and each of them could not move away.

"Hey! Sister-in-law, what kind of gem is this?" Qin Su asked. Xiao Tianfu and Luo Cuilian were married, and she and Qin Yue also came to join in the fun.

"Well, I heard Jincai said this is called diamond!" Xiao Qimei recalled that the jewelry she had in her hand was indeed diamonds. After Xiao Tianlei discovered it, he tried to polish some of the diamonds and rough stones dug out of the mining of Laohuling. Although he did not have advanced machinery, he could use the fire-attributed qi to cut it. However, the cutting of diamonds was a technical job, a fine job, time-consuming and labor-intensive work. After trying for several years, he wasted a lot of raw stones before he successfully cut some of them. The best-quality ones were used to make this jewelry made by Luo Cuilian.

Qin Yue couldn't help but want to touch her, but was beaten by Xiao Qimei and stopped her and said, "Bitch! My girl Yue, only watch, not touch!"

Qin Yue said obediently: "Auntie, let me take it in my hand and take a look!"

Xiao Qimei still agreed and said stubbornly and resolutely: "That's not OK. I heard from Jincai that these diamonds were made with great effort. Just like today, there were only a few of them, all made into this set of jewelry. This is a priceless treasure! Even the emperor's concubine doesn't have anything. Look, touch me, what if you lose it?!" Not to mention others, Xiao Qimei couldn't help but want to put this dazzling diamond in her bag, and she felt sore when she looked at it.

"Wow! That's all in the world!"

When the diamond was so precious, the women watching were amazed again. Seeing the diamond was full of intoxication, thinking that if I could have one, it would be even the smallest.

Xiao Qimei said sourly: "Those boys usually keep the door tightly, and no one can get the advantage. Unexpectedly, it will be a priceless treasure when they take action! Alas, if I am young, I will marry without saying a word! I still hear what money says, diamonds are forever, and one will be passed on forever." Xiao Qimei said, while putting this set of jewelry on Luo Cuilian, which attracted everyone's admiration and envy, and kept saying: "Cui Lian, it's such a blessing!" She couldn't help but feel a little sour. Who would have thought that a poor girl in the countryside would have such a glory when she got married!

Xiao Qimei continued to talk about the internal news she knew: "This time, I invited the Brotherhood Art Troupe to perform a big show."

"Art troupe!" When everyone heard this, they were all full of expectations.

The Brotherhood Art Troupe is also very famous now. Xiao Tianlei was on a whim and asked the Brotherhood to establish a Art Troupe so that his subordinates could have some entertainment in their busy work. The people of Shanyue were able to sing and dance, and selected some people to form them. They also collected some musicians, kabuki and Xiao Tianlei personally participated in the process of compiling some programs and songs. Anyway, they were just copying or adapting some programs, songs from previous lives, and many of the songs in the hero template of the Qinse Fairy were just used.

Since its establishment, the Art Troupe was extremely popular within the Brotherhood. After the Brotherhood was uprising, the Art Troupe began to perform externally to stabilize the people's emotions, boost morale and entertain the public. It was performed for a day in Lingzhou City, and there were thousands of people everywhere. Since some people watched the Art Troupe performance, they would go to watch it no matter how far away. Unfortunately, the Brotherhood Art Troupe mainly performed internally and performed externally. There are many performances that people like, and there are also some large-scale plays, but they are not easily performed in front of outsiders.

"It's not just that, Jincai said they have prepared a show, and they have been rehearsing recently." Xiao Qimei broke the news again.

"I'm talking about that boy Tianbao, why is he crazy and singing in his mouth from time to time?" Xiao Tianbao's mother said.

"Those kids can fight and kill, and they are busy all day long, not knowing what they are busy with. What will they perform?" It made everyone very curious to hear that the leader of the Brotherhood was going to perform on stage.

"No matter what they act, I'll just join in the fun and have fun." Xiao Qimei said. She didn't think her son could perform anything.

The news spread quickly. Originally, many people knew about Xiao Tianfu's marriage that the Brotherhood is now the owner of Lingzhou. Although Xiao Tianfu is not famous, he is also the leader of the Brotherhood. It is a big event for him to get married, so he naturally has to join in the fun and see the direction of the wind. He also learned that not only the Brotherhood Art Troupe was going to perform here, but the Brotherhood leader would also perform on stage. As soon as the news spread, many people were looking forward to this day. To be continued.
