Lin Becheng looked at them closely and saw that they were indeed fully armed soldiers. "I am a shipbuilder," said Lin, "and I have nothing to do with the army. What business does Guild Leader Zhu have with me? Is your military camp going to build a ship? "

Someone said, "They might be building a ship."

Someone else said, "Mister Lin, congratulations! Our captain wants to praise you. Then you'll know everything. "

Lin Bi Cheng said: "Please go back and tell Guild Leader Zhu that I have no time to go. Shipbuilding must first be approved by the factory, and I personally have no right to agree to that. "

One of them stepped forward again and said, "If we don't go, that is not giving face to the captain. We can't tell you when we get back. Please come with us. Guild Leader Zhu knew that you were busy, so he invited you over for a chat. Mr. Lin, please do not decline. "

Lin Bi Cheng said in his heart, "The Zhu pirates have invited me for no good reason. It's impossible to not see how things are, they have to be courteous first then military later. "

Hesitating for a moment, Lin Bi Cheng said, "Please sit down. I will go as soon as I'm done."

The leader said, "Thank you, Mister Lin! We are in charge and should not delay. "Go ahead, we'll wait here for you."

Back in his room, Lin Bie Cheng put on his clothes, and said to Liu Qin: "Outside are the Zhu Bandits, they invited me to do something. You guys don't have to worry, I'll be right back. "

Liu Qin said: "He's not planning anything on our daughter, is he? This was last year. That time, they were driven away by a prodigy. "

Lin Bi Cheng said: "He is the commander, and my daughter will not give it to him. "Don't make wild guesses, maybe it's about the building of a ship."

Just as the two of them were unable to guess what was going on, the person outside urged them, "Please get dressed quickly, Mister Lin. Guild Leader Zhu is sitting and waiting! " Lin Becheng quickly put on his clothes, went out to his palanquin and followed them.

Liu Qin and her daughter were worried for the entire night. At dawn, Lin Beng had yet to return. After the mother and daughter had eaten, they went out to the street to look around. Suddenly, they saw three fast horses coming from the east, which made the dust billow.

Miss Lin was startled, "Mother, that person is a Zhu Family pirate, he must be coming to our house." The two girls were so frightened that they hurriedly went back into the room without looking at the room properly, closing the door tightly behind them.

Liu Qin hurriedly said, "Your father did not come home for a whole night. Since the Zhu pirates suddenly came, something will definitely happen." The Zhu Bandits were full of dandies and could do anything. "Hurry and hide." In panic, Miss Lin entered her own small house and firmly locked the door behind her. Then he hid inside and listened to what was happening outside.

The Pirate Zhu led his two janissaries to the door and jumped down from his horse. He entered the yard and knocked on the door: "Is there anyone here? Open the door! "Open the door!" Liu Qin hesitated for a moment and was too scared to not open the door. She opened the door fearfully and replied: "It's Guild Leader Zhu! Please take a seat in the house. "

The Zhu Clan pirate was rather polite as he cupped his hands and said: "Madam Lin, this official greets you!" Then, he strode into the room and sat down beside the tea table. Liu Qin asked, "Didn't our boss get invited to go by the Guild Leader? "Why isn't he back yet?"

The Pirates nodded. "I came here personally because of this. To tell you the truth, although I, Zhu, have three concubines and four concubines by my side, I don't have a single one that I like. They only know how to play cards and ask me for money. None of them are kind to me. I hurt them all. With her beautiful figure, beautiful face, and full of poetry, this captain wants to take her as his wife. It would be disrespectful if someone else came. I came today personally to ask for Madame's hand in marriage. I have made an agreement with Mr. Lin, and now it is up to you, Madam. If you nod your head slightly, then this marriage will be decided. In other words, you are my mother-in-law. What do you think? " Then, he stared at Liu Qin.

The two guards laughed to themselves and said to themselves, "This is good. A son-in-law is older than Weng. The mother-in-law is not more than forty years old. "

When Liu Qin heard this, she was so scared that she didn't dare to lower her head. She was afraid that he would agree. Her heart was in panic and she was dumbstruck.

The Zhu Qin pirates thought that Liu Qin found his appearance ugly, and said, "Although I'm not handsome, but I have some powerful forces that can cover the sky with one hand. I'm an ass with a human sauce stick. He was bold and straightforward, he had nothing to say. I hope that you can also speak quickly and agree to it very early. "

Liu Qin said with hatred in her heart: "Damn it! As expected, my guess was right. He once again had the idea of going after my daughter. "What wishful thinking!" She was furious and did not dare to complain. "Please be merciful, Captain, please let me go! "My daughter already has an owner for the flowers. We can't get close to this marriage of yours."

Upon hearing this, the Zhu Bandits laughed loudly and said, "mother-in-law, don't lie to me. I know Dongfang Yijie has another marriage. That little girl was sitting at the Dongfang household waiting for their wedding. Dongfang Yijie has had enough of your daughter, and now he doesn't want it anymore. I don't mind his leftovers, nor do I mind your daughter being a ruined flower that has failed.

Liu Qin said angrily: "Guild Leader Zhu, please show some respect! How can you ruin someone's good name for nothing! My daughter is a clean girl, you are not allowed to slander her again. She's not good, and yet you came to propose marriage three times in a while? "

The Zheng Pirates laughed and said, "As a mother, you are still muddle-headed. Your daughter and I are related by marriage. Now I'm your son-in-law. Why are you arguing with me? If you have to attend to any matters, you should agree to it as soon as possible! Having a grandson at home was a joke. If you anger this captain, I will turn hostile! "

With that, he took out several tens of silver coins, placed them on the table and said, "This money should be used as a betrothal gift. There will still be more after we finish our business. One day, I will use my palanquin, lay out the honor guard, and brag and beat to marry your daughter. mother-in-law, how about it? "

Liu Qin endured the pressure and said: "Leader Zhu, take the money back. My daughter really hired someone. "

Upon hearing that, the Zhu Bandits immediately glared at him, enraged by the humiliation and scolded, "Don't f * cking not know how to appreciate favors! What the hell are you to be ashamed of! How dare you touch my face? How dare you underestimate me? Go to the village of Ten Li Eight and ask me, which girl didn't manage to get her hands on one of the girls I like? Your daughter, I want to officially marry you, this is a form of praise! "

He then threatened viciously, "If you dare to disobey me again, I will kill your husband and then forcefully marry your daughter. I'il let you cut your ears. I'll tell you the truth, I'm taking your daughter away now, who can do anything to me? This is my honor! "

He looked around and when he saw that there was no Miss Lin, he asked, "Where is your daughter? Where is it? Get her out! " Liu Qin quickly lied, "My daughter is not home, she went to the Dongfang family."

The Ju Pirates stood up and started to search. Liu Qin quickly said half-heartedly: "She really isn't at home. You can let us work together. "

The Pirate Zhu stopped and said, "That's more like it. I'll give you three days to think it over. " With that, he turned his anger into joy and left the room.

She then shouted out, "Mother, please consider carefully! I've been dreaming about your daughter. If she becomes the Captain's wife, you can also enjoy a bit of wealth. I'm a girl with a silver spoon in my mouth, it's a foregone conclusion. I'll be there in three days. "

Seeing that he was about to leave, Liu Qin let him go and said half-heartedly: "Quickly let my husband go so that I can get along with him."

The Pirate woman laughed and whispered to the guard: "This woman doesn't care if she eats hard or not." "Don't try to coax me." Then he said to Liu Qin: "Sure, sure! You can think about it first. " With that, he saddled his horse and left.

Liu Qin saw that he had walked far away, she spat at his back and scolded: "This damnable thing, how can I not let the spear collapse and die! "You're still thinking about my daughter."

Liu Qin was angry and resentful as she went back inside the house. She called out her daughter and said, "Quickly go tell Uncle Dongfang that he can think of a way to save us. I saw that the Zhu Bandits didn't return to the barracks, and went north. I'm afraid that he will return. If he comes again, I can deal with him at will. If he pisses me off, I'll go all out against him. " With that, he let out a long breath.

Miss Lin was already emotionally weak, and she could not afford to take any blows. He saw how his mother gritted her teeth and resented her words. He was also worried that the Zhu Family pirates wouldn't be able to snatch the bride from his mother, causing her to feel wronged. She was desperate, and burst into tears.

Liu Qin also shed tears and said: "Daughter, you are sick, don't cry, otherwise you will get sick again. Go and tell your uncle Dongfang. There are three men in his family right now. There must be a way to save us. " While crying, Miss Lin went out to the Dongfang family.

When she entered the Dongfang family's residence, everyone was shocked to see that her eyes were red and her face was covered with tears. Lee Yanyi thought she was scolded by her father for disagreeing with the marriage. Just as he wanted to say: "Regarding our marriage, it's fine if you don't agree. "Let my uncle speak to your father."

Dongfang Liang asked first, "Nephew, why are you crying? His eyes are even filled with tears. "

Miss Lin's heart ached as she cried out, "Something happened to my family." Early in the morning, the Zhu Clan pirates brought someone to my house. "

Dongfang Mingliang said: "This piece of skin! What was he doing at your house? Don't cry, Uncle will go and take a look. "

Dongfang saw that Miss Lin was getting in the way and had already predicted that the Zhu pirates were here to force a marriage. He hastily prepared to meet them head on. Miss Lin added, "The Zhu pirates are gone now. My mother told me to tell you. " Dong Fang Liang then stopped and asked, "Nephew, can you tell me the details? What is he doing here again?" Miss Lin said, "Last night, you just left my house. The Zhu pirates sent men to my house and sent my father to the barracks. My father was never home. He was detained in the barracks. The Zhu pirate lied that my father agreed, and then came to force his mother to marry him. "

When the crowd heard this, they all became furious. Dong Fang Liang said to Li Huayi, "This Zhu Tie is actually a bandit leader. On the mountains and on the water, he had been a stronghold lord. Killing people and looting goods, robbing civilians and girls, all sorts of crimes were committed. When the Republic arrived, he was ambushed, but his wildness never changed. He is a notorious playboy. Last year, he sent two of his men to the Lin Clan to cause trouble for them. It just so happened that one day when Ji Jie was home, he beat them away. Why did he give up on reviving this time? He must be aware of our situation and must have heard some news. "

Dongfang Mingliang thought about it and said: "It must have been Zou Qiangfeng who gave us the news. That day, he came to rescue Miss Lin and rushed back, saying that Guild Leader Zhu was waiting for him. The Zhu pirates had always wanted to bully Miss Lin. This time, he will not stop until he reaches his goal. "

Lee Yanyi frowned at the side and made a plan in his mind. Li Huayi said, "Now it's China, the bandits are free to take over the title of the nation's commander. "What kind of world is this!?"
