Chapter 19 Uncle Fu
There are many rules and tricks for bodyguards to follow.
One of them is not washing your face.
This is mainly because the face is easily dried out and injured due to frequent face washing and exposure to wind and sun. The skin peels off in summer and is cut by a knife when the cold wind blows in winter.
Therefore, not washing one's face is actually a kind of protection for the escort.
And when should I wash my face...Of course, I should wash my face after I get home.
This rule is like a ritual in Ziyang Escort Agency.
After completing the escort mission, going home to wash his face is the first priority.
Su Mo looked at Uncle Fu's smiling face and smiled as well. He took off his coat, washed his face, and carefully wiped off the frost on his face.
Uncle Fu was waiting by the side until Su Mo finished washing his face. Then he took the basin of water and left, pouring it out violently.
It was as if all the hard work along the way was thrown away.
…
…
Take a shower and eat!
When you escort a caravan home, you have to have a good meal.
Stir-fried tender meat slices, delicate crystal pork elbows, tempting green vegetables, and a variety of meat and vegetable combinations fill the table.
In addition, Uncle Fu’s specialty is making soup dumplings, and he made five trays of them.
Let Su Mo enjoy the meal.
Uncle Fu always emphasized rules, so he never ate at the same table with Su Mo.
When Su Mo was eating, Uncle Fu stood beside him and served him.
Although Su Mo told Uncle Fu more than once that they were the only two people left in the escort agency, there was really no need to abide by this rule.
However, Uncle Fu simply refused. No matter how much Su Mo said, it was meaningless.
Even when he was anxious, the old man still acted like a spoiled child. He sat on the ground with snot and tears, saying that he was sorry to the ancestors of the Su family.
In the end, Su Mo had no choice but to retreat.
Su Mo ate the soup dumplings one by one with delicious soup. While enjoying the meal, he did not forget to mention his encounter with Yang Xiaoyun at Shili Pavilion.
"It's the eldest lady of the Yang family."
Uncle Fu's eyes lit up: "Speaking of which, Master, you are now of marriageable age, and Miss Yang is very pretty and graceful. She is really a good match for you . How about I go to Tiexue Escort Agency on your behalf after a while to meet Master Yang and discuss your marriage?"
Su Mo was just swallowing a sip of tea and almost spit it all out when he heard this.
He immediately waved his hands and said, "Uncle Fu, please wait. This is absolutely not allowed!"
"Master, what you said is true. Is there anything that is absolutely impossible?"
Uncle Fu shook his head: "The marriage between you two was arranged when the master was alive, and the master of the Yang family was very happy at that time. Even if the master dies, this marriage will still be there. If Yang Yizhi dares to go back on his word, how dare he live like a man? If that's the case, even though Uncle Fu is old, if this old bone lies down at the door of the Iron Blood Escort Agency, Yang Yizhi will probably have a headache for three days."
Su Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He didn't know what this old man had experienced when he was young.
At this age, he is still like a piece of rolling pin, with the demeanor of a bachelor who is not afraid of boiling water.
And Su Mo also knows Uncle Fu.
This old man is really capable of doing such a thing.
He immediately said, "I'm not saying that this marriage is invalid, nor am I saying that the Yang family wants to go back on their word. Apart from anything else, in the past few years, people who have come to the Tiexue Escort Agency to propose marriage have almost broken down their iron door, but Uncle Yang has not agreed, right?"
"Well, that's true. Yang Yi is a man of his word."
Uncle Fu nodded: "You know, when he and the master were still young, they were close friends. The master has carried Yang Yizhi out of the dead many times in the rivers and lakes. If he dares to break his promise, even if Uncle Fu dies, he will become a wronged spirit to blow on his spine."
“…”
Su Mo could only nod repeatedly: "That's right."
"Then Master, when do you think it's appropriate for us to bring this up?"
Uncle Fu did not stop there, but looked at Su Mo: "This matter cannot be left unresolved. While my old bones are still not completely useless, if you can expand the Su family, I can still help take care of the little young master. Don't look at me like this, I was the one who brought you up when you were young, and the lady said that I am better at taking care of children than she is."
This statement is going further and further away, and there is no limit to it.
I had to deal with it immediately: "Uncle Fu, it's really not the right time to bring this up. I acted ridiculously in the past two years, and it spread all over Luoxia City. Although I have learned from my mistakes in the past two years, I have to change my past mistakes. But this reputation needs to be reversed little by little. I'm afraid that Uncle Yang has a big prejudice against me. Even though the engagement was not cancelled because of the promise made in the past.
"But if we bring it up now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to agree..."
Having said this, seeing that Uncle Fu was getting anxious again, he immediately said, "However, everything is now moving in a good direction. When the escort agency opens its doors for business, my reputation will also turn around little by little. When I develop the escort agency and become successful, how can Uncle Yang interfere?
"I guess he has rejected so many suitors for so many years. Maybe he is waiting for me to mend my ways?"
After hearing this, Uncle Fu calmed down a little. After thinking carefully for a while, he nodded and said, "Master, you have really grown up. What you said makes sense. Then... let's do as you wish?"
"Yeah, let's do it this way."
Su Mo let out a sigh of relief and dealt with it lightly. He could deal with the future matters later.
Uncle Fu smiled and said, "Although that's what I said, if you have some free time, you should go to the Tiexue Escort Agency."
"……knew."
Su Mo nodded slightly: "I have promised Yang Xiaoyun about this before. I will visit the Tiexue Escort Agency when I have nothing to do."
"That's good. That's good."
Uncle Fu nodded repeatedly: "I know that you, young master, are focusing on martial arts now, but Miss Yang is also an expert in this field. Working in isolation is not a long-term solution after all. You young people should have more contact and exchange more. This is exactly what the saying goes... How did you say it? Be brave and make progress? Who knows what good stories will be spread in the martial arts world in the future..."
As the old man spoke, he began to imagine the future.
At this moment, he might have already imagined what Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun's future names would be in the martial arts world...
Su Mo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but thinking about this matter still gave him a headache.
"But fortunately, Yang Yizhi's attitude is unclear. There is no need to worry too much about something that has not yet been decided."
Without giving it any more thought, he had a hearty meal and returned to his room.
This trip was really tiring. Although I had profound internal skills and the physical fatigue was nothing serious, I was mentally exhausted. I threw myself on the bed and fell into a deep sleep in the blink of an eye.
