This place is fun

Chapter 53 Joy
In the evening, when the setting sun burned a bright red in the clouds in the sky, Yishan City was just like the sky, quiet yet fiery.

A conflict that nearly led to a large-scale civil unrest was finally calmed down under the worried gaze of the city's residents.

The crowd gathered at the intersection of Sandieta Street has dispersed, and the road blockade and alert have been lifted. When people pass by here in the afterglow of the setting sun, they can only see the quiet houses in the distance, the silent fields and woods, and the golden fallen ginkgo leaves at the intersection.

Walking on the dirt road, it was hard for people to imagine that just now, the situation here was tense. The various forces had a brutal contest here, although there was no swordplay. It was also hard to imagine that the future of several large families was decided at this intersection.

The final winner was actually the Su family.

Today, Mijiazhuang in the Third Quarter is in a state of misery and grief. The clan elders, stewards, and guard leaders have all been arrested and imprisoned. The city guards and the Fiery Army have joined forces to move in, conduct investigations, search and search, arrest and interrogate. Large-scale division, annexation, and expulsion are imminent.

The Zhou family also fell into trouble at the same time.

Because he brazenly turned the table over and joined the game at the last minute, Zhou Gaoyuan brought disaster to the Zhou family. Although the Zhou family did not end up like the Mi family, the city lord Zhu Ziming had already joined forces with the other four great families and nine great sects to issue a control order.

That is to say, from this moment on, although the Zhou family retained its position as an aristocratic family, it was actually excluded from the aristocratic family's decision-making circle. At the same time, all the aristocratic family powers owned by the Zhou family were suspended. The family guards were disbanded, and the warriors in the family were not allowed to move freely.

This meant that they could not freely purchase food, could not freely enter and leave the city, could not organize caravans, and their industries would shrink significantly. Basically, their hands and feet were tied up. For many years afterwards, the Zhou family's situation in Yishan City might even be worse than that of some ordinary farmers.

The news had spread like a raging wind, sweeping across every corner of Yishan City. People were stunned when they heard the news by the fields, by the streams, on the streets, at home, in teahouses, on carriages, and in front of shops.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and started discussing enthusiastically.

Later, more and more detailed gossip followed.

When people put all the information together and pieced together the truth, they only had one thought - the Su family was really lucky.

Judging from the moves thrown by both sides, with each other hitting each other with punch after punch, the Su family has no chance of winning at all.

The Mi family had always been suppressing the Su family, and in the end, they were backed by the Zhou family, the Yue family, the Wang family, and the Thunder Cloud Sect, the leader of the nine major sects. They acted even more recklessly and disregarded the rules. Even the Zhu family and the Lin family could only stand by and watch.

But who would have known that a cold valley would suddenly appear halfway!

While the Mi family captured Su Daoshan, Han Gu rescued this confused and ignorant nerd.

The Zhou family had just joined the game and was about to mobilize all the major forces to suppress the Su family like a mountain falling down. On the other side, Xie Xunbai had already captured Mi Ye and threw him in front of Zhou Gaoyuan.

Collaborating with the demons outside the city was certainly a way to the death of the Mi family, but who would have thought that by coincidence, at the critical moment when they and the Su family were fighting for life and death, the secret was detonated. And the person who was attracted was none other than Xie Xunbai!
So, the Su family's luck is incredibly good.

When people heard that several children of the Mi family were killed, they thought it was a hidden trick of the Su family and were still shocked by the background of the Su family.

Now it seems that this perception is simply ridiculous.

How could an old dog that had been weak for more than ten years suddenly turn into a tiger?

In fact, the Su family had no power to resist from beginning to end. Their silly nerd was just lucky enough to be rescued by Han Gu. Moreover, because he was kidnapped, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise and brought Xie Xunbai to the Triple Tower.

Then a series of changes occurred in the development of things.

The Mi family's crime was thus exposed, and during this process, the Zhou family's warriors even surrounded Xie Xunbai without knowing the consequences.

If the Mi family had not kidnapped this nerd, everyone guessed that the most likely result would be that Han Gu would capture Mi Ye, interrogate him, and discuss with the city lord Zhu Ziming privately on how to deal with him. As for the Zhou family, they didn't even have the chance to offend Xie Xunbai.

They are so high up there, how can I get close to them?
In that case, the Su family would have no business at all.

But the Su family had such luck. Not only did they completely win the battle with the Mi family, but they also defeated the Zhou family. In the future, not only will they continue to sit firmly on the throne of the aristocratic family, but they will even have more say in the Yishan City structure.

As the sky gradually darkened, people were talking about it in the streets and alleys after dinner. A storm that had been dark and heavy, with lightning and thunder, finally disappeared in this way. Everyone was happy, but more of it was curiosity and envy.

This battle, due to a series of twists and turns, is almost legendary.

Everyone can imagine that when the news gets out, it will cause countless people to be surprised, sigh, and utter sighs.

But no matter what, the dust has settled. With the news coming from Sujiabao, Sujiabao is now full of joy!

"I said, although this kid is a little stupid, he is a blessed one!"

Under a big tree in Sujiabao Square, Qiu Daye held a large bowl in his hand and shoveled a large piece of noodles topped with eggs and meat slices into his mouth, while shouting at the people around him in a voice as loud as a bell, with saliva flying.

An old man in his eighties acts like a child showing off.

It was just getting dark, but Sujiabao was already decorated with lights, filled with laughter and bustling with activity.

An hour ago, the matter at the Triple Tower had just been settled, and when the news came, Sujiabao was in an uproar. Everyone couldn't believe their ears, and they were so happy that they were a little dazed. Inside and outside the fort, at the street corners, they pulled people aside to ask questions. Then they went crazy beating gongs and drums, and ran around to tell others.

Soon everyone saw a housekeeper running back, pulling out three pigs, and pressing them directly on the square with his knife. Hundreds of pounds of fat meat and offal piled up like a small mountain, a large iron pot was set up, firewood was lit, steaming, frying, boiling, and the aroma filled the air. The master's cooks and maids all went into battle.

Large barrels of white rice, large baskets of steamed buns, and large pots of noodles were brought to the table in a continuous stream. Large slices of meat were distributed to more than a thousand residents of the fort, and each person received several taels.

This is a luxury that is not even available during the Chinese New Year!
A disaster that could destroy a family just happened to take such a sudden turn. The Su family was already ecstatic, and the stimulation of the fragrant food was like adding fuel to the fire.

Especially the children, they were having a lot of fun!
Although these children were living in the city, their lives were like heaven compared to the refugees outside the city. But even so, they could not eat any meat for a month or two. As soon as the firewood was put on the shelf, pairs of green eyes were already staring at them intently, like a group of wolf cubs.

Although the adults were more reserved, they were not much better.

In addition to the large pieces of fat meat, this time, Madam Su ordered the wine stored in the cellar of the main hall to be brought out. There were ten large jars of wine, and everyone drank freely.

As soon as the wine was drunk, the atmosphere was heated to the extreme. Not to mention the straightforward and cheerful people, even the guys who couldn't even fart when beaten with three sticks on weekdays, their faces were red, and they were talking loudly, boasting about the scene at the entrance of Triumphal Arch, which attracted cheers and echoes.

Of course, everyone still likes to listen to Uncle Qiu.

The old man was surrounded by people, some of whom had already eaten and drunk their fill, and some of whom were still holding bowls and trying to fill their stomachs. Everyone's face and eyes were filled with happiness and joy, shining brightly in the sunset and the firelight.

A few hours ago, Sujiabao was filled with gloom and sadness.

Everyone prepared for the worst.

But who knew that a few hours later, the Su family would become the biggest winner. They didn't have to leave their homes, their wives and children would not be separated, and they would not be driven out of the city and struggle for survival in the cold and hunger like those refugees in the mud. The bags they had packed, the preparations they had made, and the tears shed secretly by their wives, children, and parents, all turned into laughter and joy.

Even if you don't drink, you will feel drunk as if you are in a dream.

"Yes, even though it was a coincidence, it is still the credit of our Second Young Master!"

"You didn't see it. When the Second Young Master, Master Xie, and Fairy Fan came out together, the faces of those from the Zhou and Mi families turned pale."

"I heard that when he was kidnapped, the second young master angrily scolded Mi Lang. Although he still has the habits of a nerd, if it were someone else in that situation, I'm afraid they would have been trembling with fear and at a loss."

"The Second Young Master has always been courageous."

"Haven't you heard this nerd say before? The words of a sage and the way of a gentleman are all about being righteous and confident. Who do you think he's afraid of?"

"That's right, even a mad puppet would rush up and punch him!"

"Hahahaha!"

"Thinking about it this way, don't you think our nerdy Second Young Master is really a man of great fortune... Otherwise, how could he have a relationship with a strong man like Han Gu..."

The laughter and joy in the fort floated into the Su family mansion. The mansion was even more joyous. The servants, maids, and stewards were running around with smiles on their faces. Under the eaves and in the courtyard, the lights were brightly lit.

The banquet in the main hall had ended. Supported by her two sons and three daughters-in-law, Su's mother returned to the courtyard, sat down in the flower hall, drank a cup of sobering soup, and wiped her face with the help of Xi Que. The smile on her face faded slightly.

"Have you arranged for your guests?"

"It's all arranged," Xi Que handed the basin to another maid, squatted down to massage the old lady's legs, and reported, "We've opened Fangzhu Courtyard, the best guest house in the east courtyard, and cleaned it three times inside and out, used scented air, replaced the best mattresses, quilts and curtains, and laid out fruits and snacks. Yun Que is leading five maids to serve, and there are also guards outside, no one is allowed to disturb..."

As he spoke, Xi Que smiled and said, "However, after the two distinguished guests and the eldest lady went to interrogate Mi Xiang, Miss Fan returned to her room, while Master Xie went to the second young master's courtyard to drink tea."

"Did they go to Daoshan Courtyard?" Mother Su was startled and frowned, "Are those girls in his courtyard still crying and wailing?"

"No, they are all smiling and lively now," Xi Que said with a smile, "They were worried about the Second Young Master before."

"Who wouldn't be worried? But they are the ones who make a fuss... Daoshan came back just now, and they looked so ridiculous that the guests couldn't help but laugh at them." Mother Su snorted, "They were all crying and hugging each other. Especially Zhao Xing'er, she threw herself into his arms and refused to come out, hugging his neck and refusing to let go. What a vixen!"

Su's mother became angrier and angrier as she spoke. She glared at Su Xianyi fiercely and said, "You brought home an otaku when you were only a teenager. I don't know who taught you that!"

Su Xianyi looked at a loss whether to laugh or cry as Mrs. Jiang twisted his arm hard.

Before the marriage, he was a well-known playboy in the Su family.

"Okay, let's talk about business," Mother Su was silent for a moment, then looked around at everyone and said, "Everyone says that our Su family is lucky, but as I watch from the sidelines, I always feel that there is something fishy about this matter..."

"Strange?" Su Xianwen drank and his face turned red. He looked confused and shook his head and asked, "My son didn't see it. What's strange?"
