Chapter 50: The Guan Family Father and Son (First Update, Seeking Recommendations)

  The old eunuch left the palace...

  "The Fallen Trilogy: I Desire to Become a Demon" has resumed updates!

  That year was a very excellent work, Red Sleeve Fragrance Network's old bookworms should have heard of it.

  ————————————————

  "Infant, don't stop yet!"

  A middle-aged man in his forties, supported by two servants, squeezed in from outside the crowd and shouted loudly.

  However, his voice was hoarse and sounded weak, as if he had an illness.

  Guan Yu's attack was suddenly interrupted by the middle-aged man's shout, and his hand slipped, revealing a flaw. It was this momentary exposure of the flaw that made him pay a great price. As soon as Liu Bei saw Guan Yu make his move, he naturally wouldn't be polite either, and stepped forward to meet him.

  The lion crossed the ravine and easily opened up the boxing gloves of the infant.

  With a circular step underfoot, his body swiftly turned to face Guan Yu, and with a loud cry, he leapt up and struck down with his elbow. This move was called "Cutting the Gourd" in ancient Thai boxing, an inner flashing elbow strike that packed enormous power and could kill with one blow.

  For Liu Jian's strange boxing technique, Guan Yu was a bit confused.

  Instinctively crossing his arms in an X shape, his body slightly leaning back, trying to block Liu Kan's attack.

  However, Guan Yu underestimated Liu Qiang's strength. With a single elbow strike, Liu Qiang's body seemed to fly up, and all his strength was concentrated on his arm. A dull thud was heard, and Guan Yu's arms were heavily smashed onto the bridge of his nose by Liu Qiang's elbow strike. This one elbow strike made Guan Yu's face full of blood, and he let out a muffled groan before falling to the ground with a thud.

  My head is buzzing and ringing, with golden stars dancing before my eyes.

  The infant lay on the cold ground and didn't wake up for half a day.

  Liu Kan originally wanted to attack again, but at this time the middle-aged man suddenly pushed away the person who had fallen and pounced on Guan Yu.

  Zhang Bo intercepted Liu Gong, and the man loudly said: "Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu... spare your hands, spare your hands! My son is ignorant, offended you, it's really my fault. All the losses here, I am willing to compensate, I am willing to compensate."

  Killing someone is just a matter of nodding one's head!

  Since the other party has softened, Liu Kan also didn't want to pursue the matter to the end.

  But in his heart, he was secretly shocked. The force of that punch just now was at least several hundred kilograms, how could this little girl withstand it?

  He looked pitiful, but Liu Jian knew that it was only an external injury and Guan Yu had not been seriously hurt.

  Are these people's skeletons made of iron?

  Liu Kan thought to himself and immediately stopped his attack. He took a step back, stood firmly, and said in a cold voice: "Who are you?"

  "The little old man feeds the sparrow, he is the son of the little old man."

  Liu Kan took a look and found that this sparrow was listless and its color didn't seem too good.

  "Old man, how did you discipline your son? Without rules and regulations, he thinks this is a place where he can do whatever he wants?"

  The sparrow suddenly started coughing violently, and a faint flush of sickly red appeared on its pale face.

  He repeatedly apologized and said: "It's all because the old man didn't discipline him well... If the master has suffered any losses, the old man is willing to compensate, willing to compensate."

  "Master Guan, this is not a matter of compensation or no compensation. You can't afford to compensate me anyway. Do you know what your son has done? He tore my banner! That banner was given by the county magistrate himself, and I heard that the name on it was even personally bestowed by the Emperor."

  These wines and goods amount to no less than one hundred thousand taels of silver. If he were to add to that the crime of physically assaulting and injuring my employees...

  "Let me tell you something harsh, just by looking at his head it's clear he's a lightweight, and if things go wrong, he might even implicate nine generations of his family. Old sir, can you really bear the responsibility?"

  The banner of Du Ling's old wine was indeed a gift from Ren You.

  It's unclear whether it was the emperor himself who said so... The black flag with golden letters, that represents the royal tribute wine, and in a broader sense, it really represents the face of the imperial court. The surrounding merchants heard this and couldn't help but take a deep breath. They only knew that Du Ling old wine was produced for sacrificial tribute wine, but they didn't think that there would be so many twists and turns inside, putting Guan's father and son in danger!

  The sparrow's face turned bright red...

  He suddenly turned around and slapped the infant who had just woken up and was crawling on the ground, covering his face with a series of slaps.

  "You scoundrel, why are you making things so difficult for me? I told you not to follow me, but you insisted on following me... Now look what's happened, you, you, you're trying to get me killed, aren't you? Hurry up and go apologize to Mr. Liu..."

  The meaning of "guan que" is that you apologize for your past mistakes, and Liu Kan calms down his anger. As long as Liu Kan doesn't report to the authorities, this matter can be negotiated.

  But unexpectedly this rascal was really a tough nut to crack, and with a straight face said: "Why should I apologize to him?"

  "You, you, you..."

  Guan Que only felt the surging of qi and blood in his chest, his fingers pointing at Guan Yin, but before he could catch his breath, he fell backwards. Fortunately, Liu Jian was quick-witted and rushed forward to support Guan Que with one hand, while the other hand instinctively landed on Guan Que's pulse, his brow furrowed in concern.

  A white-robed and red-hatted merchant stepped forward, pointing at Guan Yu and scolding: "You rascal, are you trying to drive your father to death?"

  Guān yīng also swung his hands and feet, bent both knees, and fell to the ground with a thud.

  "Dad, Dad..."

  "Stop quarreling!"

  Liu Jian pinched the person who was pouring bird's saliva, using a light force. The pouring bird let out a faint cry and exhaled a mouthful of air, waking up from its coma.

  As soon as he saw his father, he hastily cried out: "Dad, Dad, are you alright? I was wrong, son will never dare to make you angry again."

  "Sir, you seem to be in poor health, often having difficulty breathing and accompanied by coughing symptoms?"

  "Huh?"

  The sparrow was taken aback, staring at Liu Quan in surprise. "Mr. Liu is also well-versed in medicine? This old man's illness has been going on for many years, and it always flares up during the spring and autumn seasons. Heh heh, it doesn't hinder anything, it doesn't hinder anything... But this time the illness came on suddenly, and as a result my son... Mr. Liu, please spare my son, how can we make amends? This old man will agree to anything, even if it means losing everything."

  Liu Kan smiled and shook his head.

  The disease of the sparrow has some similarities with pulmonary tuberculosis in later generations, but it is not that serious.

  With proper treatment and rest, under a peaceful and calm state of mind, with appropriate conditioning, it should be easy to recover.

  "Old sir, compensation or not is just a small matter!" Liu Ke said: "It's just that you have this illness, if you don't pay attention to it, I'm afraid there will be concerns for your life. Do you often feel heart palpitations, shortness of breath, dry mouth and tongue? When anxious, can't even breathe?"

  Guan Yin listened beside, her eyes suddenly lit up.

  "Uh... can you cure my father's illness?"

  Just now still shouting to smash Liu Quan's shop, suddenly having a request for Liu Quan again, Guan Yu really didn't know what to say.

  This face is completely red...

  "It's not difficult to cure the illness, but for your condition, sir, you need to be careful and get plenty of rest."

  Liu Jian said, letting the two partners who had supported Guan Que come over, and looking at Guan Yu's blood-covered face, he suddenly smiled.

  "Alright, everyone can disperse now!"

  Liu Quan waved his hand and said, "The small shop is afraid it can't sell wine today, please wait until tomorrow. Everyone rest assured, this wine will not be short of everyone, if there's nothing else, let's disperse, disperse... Old Zhou, find someone to clean up here."

  Zhou Chang, who had just returned to the store, immediately responded with a "yes".

  Liu Jian had someone help Guan Que into the inner hall, but found that the red-haired and black-crowned merchant who had just scolded Guan Yu was still in the store.

  "May I ask your honorable surname?"

  It seems like this is a "Scholar" and an officially recognized one at that.

  Red turban?

  Could this be Wei Zimin? Liu Kan saw that the man was about thirty years old, with an extraordinary appearance, and so he had the intention of making friends with him.

  "My name is Chen Yu, from Yangwu... Master Guan is unwell, and I happen to have some knowledge of medicine. So I took the liberty of staying behind, perhaps I can be of assistance to Mr. Liu."

  Chén Yǔ

  Very unfamiliar, never heard of it!

  Yang Wu indeed belonged to the former Wei, Liu Kan nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you, sir!"

  After finishing speaking, he walked to Zhou Chang's side and whispered a few words to him. Zhou Chang nodded, "I'll take care of this matter."

  The people watching from outside gradually dispersed.

  But in their hearts, the status of this Suishui Huadiao has probably been elevated by another level.

  Liu Jian didn't even look at Guan Yu, and walked straight into the inner hall. As for Guan Yu, he stood in the main hall, neither following nor staying behind. He awkwardly stood there, while the surrounding servants seemed to ignore him, each busy with their own tasks.

  The baby was very embarrassed, so he went over to help.

  Before long, Chen Yu came out of the inner hall with a smile, "Guan Yin, your father wants to talk to you."

  Guan Yin hastily replied and put down the work in her hands.

  "Dad, are you okay?"

  As she entered the inner hall, Guan Yin saw that Guan Que's face was rosy and her complexion had improved significantly. She couldn't help but feel extremely surprised and hastily asked questions.

  "You haven't driven me to death yet, you little brat!"

  The sparrow saw the baby and its expression changed instantly.

  The baby scratched his head, didn't know what to say, and could only smile foolishly.

  "Old sir, I have a plan in mind. Guan Yin is just an innocent victim... Hehe, remember the prescription I gave you earlier and use it to make medicine with autumn pears when autumn comes. Take it every day, and you'll recover soon."

  "However, thank you very much, Mr. Liu!"

  Guan Que hastily expressed his gratitude. Meanwhile, Guan Yu's face turned even redder...
