Chapter 131 ·Disappointment

The sun was scorching hot at noon, and Guan Bozhou and the other three hid in the pavilion to rest.

The surface of the lake is like a bright mirror under the sunlight, the breeze from the mountains blows on your face, and occasionally there are the low calls of birds in the forest.

There were no outsiders present. Yu Congyun lay half-lying on the cushions with ease, closing his eyes and saying with enjoyment, "No wonder the ancients liked the pastoral life of 'picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and leisurely seeing the Nanshan Mountains'. Although Shanghai is prosperous, bright and lively,

, but how can it compare to the freedom and ease now?"

Guan Bozhou drank several glasses of wine and was already tipsy. He smiled and said, "Since you like it so much, why don't I discuss it with my eldest brother and rent Langyuan to you so that you can feel comfortable here?"

How about living on earth for the rest of your life?"

Yu Congyun said lazily, "I think so, but my family won't agree. My daily supply will be cut off, and I won't even have the money to rent a house. Otherwise, many people would choose to live like this in their later years.

What about life? It’s just because you have saved enough money, you can easily take care of yourself in old age. I guess this Langyuan is the place your brother left for himself to take care of himself in old age. You’d better not take it lightly. "

The three of them were chatting and drinking tea, and they were no longer so enthusiastic about fishing.

Zhou Chen was the drunkest one among the three. He fell asleep leaning on the wooden pillar of the pavilion soon, and soon started to snore.

Yu Congyun couldn't help but laugh and said, "This guy has such a big heart, isn't he afraid that we will work together to sell him? He can sleep in this deep mountain and old forest. If we leave him here, maybe he will become a

The beast’s meal.”

Guan Bozhou said, "There are always people walking around here, so there are no wild animals. Even if there are, they are just grass snakes, and they are not poisonous at all."

The two of them looked at Zhou Chen's honest sleeping face, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere suddenly became deserted.

After a while, Guan Bozhou asked, "What are your plans for the future? Have you made arrangements? Do you really have to go to Nanjing?"

"It's not like I can decide these things. There will be a lot of troubles later." Yu Congyun also felt a little depressed when he mentioned this. "When I was studying abroad, I always felt that as long as I worked hard and had real talents, I would be able to return home."

In China, the sky is high and the birds can fly, and something can definitely be done. But after I came back, I woke up. Many things cannot be done with enthusiasm alone.

We can do it because we have enriched our experience and vision over the years and learned so much knowledge and culture. In fact, the most important thing to learn is to recognize the reality. I often feel frustrated recently. I used to feel that I can do anything, but now I can’t.

I feel more and more powerless, and I may even suddenly have the thought, what would have happened if I had not been born in the Yu family?"

Yu Congyun has a bit of the nobility of a scholar in his heart, and because of his prominent family, he rarely expresses his feelings like this. Today, because he drank wine and was in such a relaxed and comfortable situation, he unconsciously talked about the recent

The confusion in my heart came out.

Guan Bozhou also sighed after hearing this.

Learn to recognize reality?

Thinking about the atmosphere at home these days, will everything change as long as I accept my mother's arrangement?

But in this life, will he always have to be controlled and manipulated by his mother like a puppet, unable to have his own ideas and pursuits?

Guan Bozhou was really distressed.

After Yu Congyun said those words, he regretted it. After seeing Guan Bozhou's expression, he wanted to take back his words. It was indeed a bit embarrassing to say such words at this moment, not to mention that Guan Bozhou came out to relax and relieve his mood.

We shouldn't add fuel to the fire and make him feel uncomfortable.

Yu Congyun hurriedly changed the subject, "What are you going to do about the Jiang family? They have spent a lot of money this time to entertain you, right? The paint on the boat that we took when we visited the lake was all new, and in some places

I haven't done much work at all. I saw that it was done in a hurry. I was afraid that it would fall apart in the middle of the lake. I am a landlubber and I can't swim at all! Their family will definitely not give up if they fawn over you like this. I don't know what Ma Zhong will do.

arrive

How many benefits have been gained by such a hard-working Zhang Luo. I don’t know if Ma Zhong came with me today. Unfortunately, I still think that he is not very good at reading and his brain is not very useful, but at least his character is still good. Now it seems that he is

I think highly of him. That's all he is. No wonder he still hasn't accomplished anything after being separated for so long. I guess he still has plans to make friends with you and ask your brother to help arrange an errand for him.

.”

When it came to Ma Zhong, Guan Bozhou also sighed with disappointment, "I always feel that the friendship between classmates is very precious, not to mention that I had a good relationship with Ma Zhong in the past. I didn't expect that these precious friendships would eventually deteriorate, and we would never talk about it again.

It’s completely changed.”

"Hmph!" Yu Congyun snorted unceremoniously, "When he invited you to Hangzhou, I guessed that he wasn't so kind, but I didn't expect that he would shamelessly introduce people like the Jiang family to us.

Does he think that we are so short of money that we can make friends alone? Not to mention that the Jiang family is not that rich yet, even if it is really rich and rivals the country, I may not like it."

Guan Bozhou said, "Forget it, just don't contact me in the future. As for the housekeeper, there is no need to get involved with them. My elder brother's position as mayor is also shaky. Every day is thrilling. How many people are staring at him.

Well, I don’t know how many people secretly hope that he will die soon. Listen to the family members

He said that since he took the position of mayor, six or seven of the personal guards around him have died, all of whom sacrificed their lives to help him take bullets. I don’t think he really has that much power. He can destroy the Jiang family with just his words.

The matter has been arranged. If the Jiang family knew about my eldest brother's current situation, I'm afraid they wouldn't be so eager to come here."

However, Yu Congyun suddenly came up with an idea while drinking.

Since the Jiang family wants to go to Shanghai so much, if he can help deal with it and make the Jiang family go as they wish. After waiting in Shanghai, they will find that it is a world of the jungle and the strong. People like the Jiang family, who are at the bottom of the food chain, will probably be eaten by others.

After swallowing it, even the bones are not left, and it is too late to regret...

Does this count as a chivalrous act of justice?

At least it can make the people of Hangzhou live a lighter life, right?

Yu Congyun suddenly became interested, and even began to outline the people and steps needed to complete the plan in his mind.

When Guan Bozhou saw his excited expression, he knew that he had another cunning and weird idea in his head, "What else are you thinking about?"

Yu Congyun didn't want him to know her plan, so she responded casually, "It's none of your business, I don't want you to worry about it."

Guan Bozhou had no choice but to give up.

Yu Congyun had an initial idea and smiled with satisfaction. He then asked about the Liu family. Guan Bozhou frowned and said, "I don't know much about the Liu family. I only know about their family."

The cargo ship is being used by my uncle's nephew in Guangzhou.

The cannon was sunk, and the Liu family wanted to take the opportunity to cause trouble. In order to stabilize the situation, my eldest brother first detained their eldest son. The Liu family tried every means to cultivate connections and wanted to quickly release the eldest son so that he could go to Guangzhou.

There's a lawsuit over there and you need compensation."

Yu Congyun frowned when he heard this, feeling that the butler's behavior was a bit bullying.

Guan Bozhou guessed what he was thinking as soon as he looked at his expression, and quickly explained, "Don't get me wrong, there is an internal cause in this matter. The Liu family is in the cigarette business, and the people on those ships in Guangzhou

The goods were all cigarettes. In the past, the Liu family had access to Guangzhou Customs, so the cigarettes could come in and out just like ordinary goods, and no one cared about them. Since my uncle's nephew Zeng Mingwei arrived in Guangzhou, he began to order a smoking ban, and the customs

people who initially

He tried to muddle through, but within a few days he drastically replaced him. It was difficult to get in and out of Liu's house, so he wanted to bribe him with some connections. Unexpectedly, Zeng Mingwei ignored him and accepted the money, but nothing happened.

, the Liu family has no choice but to

He could bravely transport the cigarettes to the port secretly, but Zeng Mingwei used cannons to sink two ships. This incident caused an uproar in Guangzhou. If my uncle hadn't suppressed the news, it would have become a sensation by now.

The whole country.”

Yu Congyun hated the smoke deeply. When he returned to China this time, he met too many people who had lost their nature due to the smoke. He clapped his hands and praised, "This is a beautiful thing. If the smoke from those ships flows into China, it will still be better."

I wonder how many families will be destroyed because of this?”
