Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 89 My Senior Brothers

Former son-in-law?
What this means is that later on this senior brother divorced Mr. Lu’s daughter?

Divorce is rare these days.

Not to mention military divorces.

For a moment, Fangyan's eyes became a little strange.

When Mr. Lu saw Fang Yan's expression, he immediately guessed what Fang Yan was thinking and explained:

"They are not divorced. My daughter died unexpectedly six months after their marriage."

After saying this, he sighed:
"Alas, it's her fault that she doesn't have that blessing..."

Then he patted Xu Jinsheng:
"He has remarried now, and the person he married was introduced by a friend of mine."

Fangyan didn't expect the story to be so complicated.

But since he's remarried, it doesn't seem appropriate to call him dad, right?

At this time, Mr. Lu said to Xu Jinsheng:
"I told you to stop calling me dad, but you still can't change. From now on, call me Master!"

Xu Jinsheng smiled and waved his hands:
"I promised Manqing that no matter what happens in the future, I will treat you like a father. And once a teacher, always a father. It is appropriate for me to call you dad."

Hearing him say this, Mr. Lu had no choice but to shake his head.

Fangyan also had a preliminary understanding of this senior brother.

After the two exchanged greetings for a while, Fang Yan learned that Xu Jinsheng had been learning martial arts and medicine under Master Lu since he was twelve years old.

Now he works at the Army Cadre Sanatorium and Rehabilitation Hospital.

This place is only for internal use, not for external use.

As for the other things inside, they are confidential and he cannot say more.

Then Xu Jinsheng changed the topic to dialects.

He had long heard from Ding Jian that he had a great talent for dialects and could remember many things after learning them once.

So he wanted to give it a try and see what level he had reached in practicing Fangyan Xingyiquan.

When Fang Yan heard that the senior brother actually wanted to practice with him, he was not at all disappointed, and even seemed to be eager to do so.

Now that the system has empowered actual combat, he is very interested in fighting.

However, Mr. Lu stopped their behavior directly.

And he said directly to the eldest brother:
"Don't try, Jinsheng. You can't beat Fangyan."

Fang Yan looked at his master in astonishment. The fight hasn't even started yet, and he's so sure that he will win?
Even Xu Jinsheng was the same. He looked at Mr. Lu in confusion.

"Why can't I beat him?"

Although Xu Jinsheng is not young anymore, he must still feel unconvinced when being belittled in such an inexplicable way.

Mr. Lu sighed and asked:

"Two months ago you went to find Ding Jian, and then practiced with his apprentice Li Lianjie outside his house. Do you remember?"

Xu Jinsheng suddenly realized and said:
"Oh, you mean that match? That guy is really talented. I lost to him wholeheartedly."

"But it was just that one scene. You don't have to think that I'm a useless person now, right?"

Mr. Lu shook his head and said:

"Yesterday he sparred with Fang Yan and was defeated."

Hearing this, Xu Jinsheng was stunned, and then looked at Fangyan with surprise.

Fang Yan didn't expect that what happened with Xiao Li yesterday in practice was actually told to other people by him.

Originally Fangyan thought that if he didn't tell anyone, Xiao Li would definitely not tell anyone else. But he didn't expect that Xiao Li could really afford to lose and told other people about it.

"That was just a sparring match. No powerful moves were used. Winning doesn't represent the true strength of both sides." Fang Yan explained to the eldest senior brother.

After confirming what Fang Yan had said, Xu Jinsheng smiled wryly and said:
"He said something similar at that time. It seems that I am indeed not as good as you young people." Seeing this, Fang Yan didn't say anything more. If he said too much at this time, people would think he was showing off.

Xu Jinsheng quickly recovered to his previous state, but Fang Yan could feel that the senior brother's words to him this time lacked the previous hint of instruction.

After chatting for a while, a middle-aged man in his thirties came to the door again.

He is about 1.8 meters tall and very strong. His most distinctive feature is that he has a square face, big earlobes, and a kind face. He looks like a Buddha statue.

This is the fourth senior brother, named Shang Yunxiang, who is only one character different from Xingyi master Shang Yunxiang.

It is said that he is now working as a purchasing agent in a traditional Chinese medicine hospital. This job requires neither kung fu nor medical skills.

But judging from his sturdy body, he must have practiced martial arts quite well.

This man speaks softly and looks like a good guy, which gives people a very contrasting feeling.

After chatting with this fourth brother for a while, Fang Yan found out that he was exactly thirty years old this year.

The aura he exudes is more like that of a person who has been in officialdom for many years and is very versatile, always smiling when he meets everyone.

He never asked about other people's privacy. For example, he never asked about dialect, kung fu and medical skills.

The sense of distance is particularly good.

In this way, the dialect is given a sense of mystery.

Next came the third senior brother. He looked to be in his thirties, very energetic, and dressed more elegantly than anyone else. He exuded a unique aura. Upon asking, I learned that he was a drama actor working in an art troupe.

Specially perform for leaders and foreign guests.

He also participated in the production of some films under the name Zhan Guoxian.

After meeting Fangyan, he was quite enthusiastic.

He called him "Junior Brother" one by one.

Then he said that there were many unmarried girls in the art troupe, and told Fangyan to go there when he had time, maybe they would fall in love with each other.

In the end, it was his master Lu Donghua who told him that his junior brother already had a partner, who was a doctor in this hospital.

This made the third senior brother give up.

So today, except for the fifth senior brother who was out of town and couldn't come, and the little girl Lu Wangyou, all the people in the sect were present.

Then, according to the process, Lu Donghua recounted the plan that he had mentioned in the dialect before.

In fact, almost everyone knew the general situation of the plan before coming. To put it simply, it was to negotiate with the successor of Shandong Mantis Boxing who wanted to seek revenge on No. 18.

If he could give up revenge, of course all the previous grudges would be written off, and Ding Jian's injury could be considered as repayment, which could be regarded as paying off the debt to Mr. Lu.

If the other party still insists, then his fellow disciples will use the same method that his apprentice used on Ding Jian to make him enjoy the same treatment.

In a word, it is impossible to cause trouble for Lu Donghua.

Either accept the conditions or be beaten up.

Moreover, this matter will be told to other fellow martial artists later. Although it is a little different from the old rules, it is logically and reasonably tenable.

No one had any objection to this arrangement, and the senior brothers fully affirmed the junior brother Fang Yan who proposed this plan.

As for these people, they never thought they could convince the master.

Because they never tried to change the Master's mind.

After so many years, they know the old man's temper best. He is as stubborn as a bull.

The fact that Fangyan was able to change the old man's mind and get him to call them all over to cooperate with him shows that this little junior brother definitely has a very high status in the master's heart.

The treatment of closed disciples is indeed different.

Everyone was thinking that after the master had dealt with this matter, they would go back and take out something to maintain a good relationship with their junior fellow apprentices.

For a moment, several people became more enthusiastic towards this junior brother whom they met for the first time.
