On New Year's Eve, Hezhou received the second big snow in the winter. The big snow added more jubilation to the festival.

Zhang Zhou really didn't have any scenery to look at, but he was not depressed. He was having a snowball fight with the kids in the yard, pushing snowmen around and having fun. Zhang Zhou didn't want to hurt the child, and he also didn't want to hit Tang Yu'er. In the end, he could only take the beating, and just couldn't take it anymore and decided to beg for mercy, but He Nai Yu'er's interest was piqued. She was not allowed to let Zhang Zhou escape, and in the end, she buried herself in a pile of snow, exposing her back and buttocks to let Tang Yu'er have a good time.

Yang Xiaolang, Seventh Master and the others stood under the eaves and watched Zhang Zhou being abused. They could do nothing about it.

At first, Tang Yu'er was still quite happy, but when Guan Yu-niang and her younger brother walked into the courtyard, Tang Yu'er's smile immediately disappeared.

Zhang Zhou was still unaware of the situation. He waited for a long time with his butt out and a smile on his face.

"Sister Guan, you're finally here. I told you, everyone will be celebrating New Year together."

Guan Yuniang stretched out her jade hands to help him sweep the snow off his head. She was both distressed and reproachful, "Look at you. You just know how to mess around. What's so good about getting cold?"

Without waiting for him to say that it was all right, Guan Xiaolou said, "Damn it!"

"Brother-in-law, big sister's right!"

With a "Aiyo!", Tang Yu'er kicked Zhang Zhou out of the side and sent him into the snowfield. Tang Yu'er pouted and said, "It's alright, your brother-in-law is in good health!"

Even though Guan Yuiniang was very friendly with him, she was still embarrassed for a moment, but Guan Xiaolou didn't notice that his words had caused trouble for Zhang Zhou. He hurriedly squatted down and pulled out the battered Zhang Zhou as he shouted, "Brother-in-law, are you alright?"

He hated Guan Yuniang so much that he kicked her into the snow as well. Guan Yu-niang controlled her emotions and smiled at Tang Yu'er, "Little sis Yu'er, can we go inside the house to chat?"

Tang Yu'er was unwillingly pulled away by Guan Yu-niang. Zhang Zhou, whose face was covered in snow, sat down on the snow. It was unknown what expression he had as he turned his head to look at Guan Xiaoluo who had climbed up from the snow. He didn't know what to think for a moment.

In his previous life, besides his wife, he did not have a single heterosexual friend, but now, he clearly felt that he had become much more unbridled, as he was the clearest in his heart. He liked Tang Yu'er's beauty and also liked Guan Yuniang's charm, but the main reason was that Guan Yuniang was too similar to his wife in his previous life. Zhang Zhou liked to get along with them, but from beginning to end, he had been avoiding one issue: Marriage!

Affectionate is always ruthless, Zhang Zhou obviously understood this phrase. He knew that he was being sentimental. As he warned himself that he really, really, really had to control them, he shamelessly told himself that there were only two of them, not many! But who was the wife and who was the concubine? If he didn't come, there would be two of them, and it would be hard to distinguish the first from the second! Deep down, he didn't want to be biased, but things often went the other way. As for how to deal with it, no one could help him.

"A man does not flirt with a young man!" Seven came over to comfort him, in return for Zhang Zhou's supercilious look. What a load of crap! It was an indulgence that did not need to consider the consequences! Was he the kind of person who played around? Noticing Zhang Zhou's unconvinced expression, Seventh Elder added.

"You deserve to die for your sins!"

As Zhang Zhou was thinking hard about how he could get both the fish and the bear's paw, Guan Yu-niang and Tang Yu'er came out laughing and talking. Tang Yu'er purposely didn't look at Zhang Zhou, while Guan Yu-niang had a complicated expression on her face.

Zhang Zhou secretly thought to himself, "This is the difference between a woman's maturity and immaturity."

However, the atmosphere of the dinner party was very harmonious. The Tang sisters were sitting on either side of Guan Yu-niang, and the three of them were talking and laughing while Zhang Zhou chatted happily with the Seventh Master and a few of his brothers.

In this world, there were no large scale fireworks, only firecrackers. The courtyard was filled with crackling sounds, and the atmosphere was quite good. It was truly blissful and harmonious.

Zhang Zhou looked at the happy crowd in the yard and then looked up at the sky. Tears rolled down his face as he softly murmured, "Farewell, previous life!" I'm here, Tang! "

Zhang Zhou knew very little about this, but he couldn't be too casual about it. Fortunately, Guan Yuniang was very familiar with the ways of the world, so she arranged the people she should visit as a list and prepared the gifts appropriately.

The first to arrive was Cao Yi. Ever since the two had confirmed their relationship as teachers and students, Cao Yi's attitude towards Zhang Zhou had been vastly different. The filial piety that should be there was definitely rich, and there was always some surprise, how could there be a reason not to like it? He looked at the house deed in his hand, and then looked at the respectful Zhang Zhou in front of him, and smiled. "Why did you give me this? It's not small at all? "

Actually, this was found in Old Qi's secret room, there was no need for him to mention such a thing.

"It is only a matter of time before you enter the capital as a teacher. This student will prepare you in advance!"

"Kid, being generous is a good thing, but being this extravagant is not good. Although he had obtained quite a lot from Old Qi, he would spend quite a lot of money in the future. He needed to have a plan. "Also, in your eyes, am I a greedy person?"

"I absolutely do not have such thoughts. I only feel that it is good to have a breather, but what is the use of having something to do? A teacher is someone who does great things and does great things. In this world, if one wanted to do something, it was useless to rely on just a little bit of loyalty and a few essays. If one wanted to do something practical and make preparations, one had to spend a lot of money! So I think, the teacher's silver should be spent on the blade, should not be for such a small matter such as the energy consumption! I am unable to help teacher in any way, but I am only helping him to resolve a little of his worries! "

Cao Yi nodded. He didn't refute Zhang Zhou's theory at all!

"I actually think that you need money more than I do. Teacher can see that your plan is very big, and in other words, everything is difficult at the beginning. Your career has just started, and you will face many difficulties. The higher-ups also had news that Master would indeed be transferred to the Capital's Law Department. I believe he won't come back here. All the properties under his name are things that you have always taken care of. Don't argue with me about this. If you need me in the future, I will naturally speak to you! Besides, the bonus you gave me in Hezhou was already enough for me to use! "How about this, I'll take the house, and only keep a portion of He Zhou Lie's stock …"

"Teacher, you don't have to worry about me. There are quite a few ways for a student to earn silver!"

Cao Yi should have already had this thought in his mind. He took out a dry share document from his sleeve, passed it to Zhang Zhou, and said seriously: "Do you think I'm trying to be polite with you? I've already said that if I really need money, I'll ask for it! If you don't accept me, you won't be treating me as your teacher! "

Zhang Zhou bitterly smiled and accepted it.

Cao Yi paused, then suddenly asked: "Zhang Zhou, you and I already have a relationship of a teacher and a student, there are some things I wish to be honest with you! At the beginning, when you gave me the stock rights of He Zhou Lie, I could understand, but why did you take the risk to help me get out of this predicament? What is your purpose? "

Zhang Zhou did not feel guilty at all. Instead, he calmly smiled and said, "Teacher, although I have never read any books, I know what it means to take advantage of the shade under a big tree!" Taking Hezhou Lie for example, without the care of a teacher, I simply can't guarantee my own profit, and also let me understand a principle. Without the care of a teacher, I can't guarantee my own gain, and also let me understand a principle. At that time, the student was certain of one thing, and that was that I firmly believed that teacher was someone who could achieve great things. To be frank, the student was scheming for himself, so I hope that the teacher would not pursue my selfishness! "

Cao Yi was not the least bit displeased. On the contrary, he was very happy.

"I am very gratified that you are able to speak frankly like this. No one knows what will happen in the future. As long as you do not exceed the limit and do not waste your time, as a teacher, I will naturally take care of you!"

"Thank you, teacher!" "Student..."

Cao Yi looked at Zhang Zhou, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

"If you have something to say, then say it. If you have fart, why are you hesitating?"

Zhang Zhou chuckled.

"This year, the students want to expand their business. Our Hezhou is too small, but if we want to leave, the disciples have no way to do so. Once we leave the Hezhou area, we can't do anything about it …"

"Hahaha, I knew it would be difficult for you! "If I can't help you with this, I won't be able to take back this property!"

Cao Yi thought for a moment and said, "Mm, how about this. When the time comes, I'll give my colleagues at the State of Lin's yamen a good welcome. You be clever and don't embarrass me!"

"Rest assured, I will definitely not tarnish teacher's reputation!"

"Who are the boxes placed outside the door?"

"Hehe, that's the reward teacher gave to his subordinates. You gave them some silver to give to them. It wasn't much. Twenty taels for each person!"

Cao Yi knew he was spending money to earn his reputation, so he smiled and said, "You crafty little b * stard! "You're so smart that you're not afraid …"

"I know that the two hundred thousand taels of silver has been repaid to my fallen brothers, but the surviving brothers of the yamen have to endure the humiliation for so long. A few days ago, Uncle You had said that Teacher intended to distribute some benefits to his brothers. It was just that the money at the yamen was far from enough, so Teacher Yu had no choice but to give up! "Like I said, without a teacher, there would be no one like me today. I must make up for this loss of face for my teacher."

Cao Yi stood up, walked in front of Zhang Zhou, and patted him on the shoulder. He said softly: "I don't want to say anything polite, but I still want to say something. Thank you!"

Zhang Zhou even paid a visit to Zhang Xingzhi. Towards an official like Zhang Xingzhi, Zhang Zhou was truly respectful from the bottom of his heart.

Zhang Xingzhi was also extremely polite to Zhang Zhou. Firstly, although he wasn't ambushed by Old Qi, Zhang Zhou still tried to warn him. Secondly, they were already brothers, so naturally, their relationship was closer. Thirdly, Zhang Zhou gave him a sabre. A Fine Steel Saber had an extraordinary significance to a good torture and arrest weapon. Zhang Xingzhi was also someone who could not bear to part with his saber.

The third family member Zhang Zhou visited was the home of the Old Catcher. Originally, he had planned to use the chicken to lay eggs and shamelessly bring Guan Yu-niang and Tang Yu'er with him. However, Guan Yu-niang firmly refused and Zhang Zhou could only helplessly bring Tang Yu'er along.

Zhang Zhou rarely rode a horse, and as it was not convenient for him to ride a horse, he had plenty of things to take with him today. Thus, he could only choose to ride a horse carriage. Tang Yu'er did not know what Zhang Zhou had discovered, so she circled the carriage a few times before getting on.

… ….

"What did sister Guan Tian say to you?"

Tang Yu'er, who had been so magnanimous outside the carriage and was rather bashful upon entering it, rolled her eyes at him and said, "I don't need you to care!"

"No matter what, by the way, I didn't want to ask you too much about your matters, and I don't know if those two letters would be of any use to you! "You won't tell me anything. Actually, I want to say that we can think of a long and safe way together!"

This sentence touched upon the knot in Tang Yu'er's heart. Tang Yu'er was silent for a long time, and her expression became somewhat solemn.

"The other side already knows about Second Uncle's death. They are even more dissatisfied with us losing the box. Fortunately, those two letters gave them some rewards!" That's why they haven't made things difficult for us for the time being! "

She suddenly looked at Zhang Zhou, unable to stop her tears.

"Zhang Zhou, do you know? "I've always been reluctant to think about those things. These days are the happiest days of my life, I'm truly afraid that one day I will lose everything I have now!"

Zhang Zhou held Tang Yu'er in his arms. Tang Yu'er didn't struggle, instead she laid in his embrace and lightly sobbed.

"Actually, I'm also afraid that one day, there will be a situation that I cannot control. What should I do? "I like you, I really do. No matter who it is that wants to take you away from me, it's impossible!"

"If one day, I mean if I leave you, will you remember me for the rest of your life?"

Zhang Zhou's heart ached as he ruthlessly slapped her buttocks.

"If you dare to leave, I'll beat you up! Whatever happens, tell me. Don't you realize I'm so different? There is nothing that I, Zhang Zhou, cannot solve! "

Tang Yu'er shyly snorted, but was unable to break free. She could only lightly beat Zhang Zhou's chest and said, "You are a bad guy. Tell me, do you like big sister Guan?"

"Ah, look, why is your face covered in blood?" Zhang Zhou said in surprise.

"Ah, where?"

There was nothing that a woman would care about more than her appearance. Tang Yu'er knew that Zhang Zhou had intentionally lied to her in order to divert her gaze. She couldn't help but use her fist again. However, in the end, the topic was still the same. Zhang Zhou admitted that he had been too greedy.

Tang Yu'er did not fly into a rage. Instead, she laid on his leg and slowly said: "Zhang Zhou, elder sister Guan is a very nice person. She's kind, gentle, and beautiful! I hope you will never disappoint her! "

"Well, I won't let you down either!"

"Zhang Zhou!" "En!"

"Zhang Zhou!"

"Hm!" What for? I'm listening! "

"Zhang Zhou!" "En!"
