Chapter 355 This boss is much more reliable
Ma had a hot temper, and Jiang Ziya was a man of few words. Often, Ma would say more than a dozen sentences, but Jiang Ziya could not say a word.
Now that he heard the yelling and scolding, Jiang Ziya had a bitter look on his face and looked at Lin Long and Song Yiren for help.
Lin Long and Song Yiren, however, both of them looked away at the same time. One looked at the scenery and the other looked at the flowers. The meaning was obvious.
At this moment, Ma came over and grabbed Jiang Ziya's ears as soon as they met.
"What a good Jiang Ziya! I've been calling you for so long and you didn't even reply. I thought you were dead!"
Jiang Ziya was in pain and quickly begged for mercy: "Hey, madam, let go, let go."
Song Yiren couldn't stand it and stood up to smooth things over: "Sit down, sister-in-law, calm down and have a sip of tea."
"Sit down and talk if you have anything to do."
Lin Long also nodded in agreement.
Seeing someone talking, Ma didn't want to embarrass Jiang Ziya anymore, so he glared at Jiang Ziya, and then he spared Jiang Ziya.
Looking at Jiang Ziya's pulled ear, it was already red, and Jiang Ziya grimaced in pain.
Song Yiren was a little embarrassed.
In the final analysis, Ma made the arrangements herself. She originally wanted to find a companion for Jiang Ziya in his later years, but instead found a dominatrix.
Song Yiren smiled awkwardly and offered Ma a cup of tea: "Sister-in-law, my adopted brother is old and his ears are not working properly. Let's have a cup of tea to calm down the anger."
Ma was a vulgar woman, so she naturally didn't know how to taste tea. She picked up the tea cup without paying any attention to it, blew on it twice, and after finding that it wasn't hot, she drank it down.
"Brother Song, little brother Lin, it's not me who is causing trouble, it's this old man who is really pissed off!"
"Ask him to weave some baskets and buy them. He's good. He worked hard for three days and sold dozens of bamboo baskets for just a few cents!"
"Asking him to sell some noodles almost cost me everything!"
"You think, can I not be angry with this old thing?"
"You keep saying that you are a practitioner."
"Bah! If Brother Song hadn't helped you with money, you old guy would have starved to death on the streets."
The more Mr. Ma talked about it, the more excited he became, and he was ready to return to fight Jiang Ziya again.
Seeing this, Song Yiren quickly started talking again.
"Brothers and sisters, please be patient."
"My sworn brother is telling the truth. He was indeed practicing Taoism on the mountain a few years ago."
"He has been like this since he was a child. He is unsophisticated and pedantic in his work."
"But having said that, those who achieve great things don't stick to trivial matters. Brothers and sisters, have you ever seen any practitioner who is busy in front of the window and behind the house all day long?"
Song Yiren tried his best to excuse Jiang Ziya.
Jiang Ziya looked at Song Yiren with a grateful expression.
Otherwise, it must be me, my sworn brother, who is really willing to take care of things.
When Ma saw this, he snorted coldly and glared at Jiang Ziya fiercely. Jiang Ziya was so frightened that he quickly shrank his neck and lowered his head.
Looking at Jiang Ziya like this, Lin Long drank tea by himself with a faint smile.
Hu Ximei on the side didn't care so much, she just covered her mouth and chuckled in front of Ma.
Who would have thought that a dignified man who deserves to be robbed by heaven and earth is actually a man who takes care of his wife and fears his wife.
When Mrs. Ma saw Hu Ximei snickering, she felt dissatisfied and said with a smile: "Brother Song is right, but it's not the case that I always rely on you to save emergencies."
"You said that we, who have hands and feet, just want to find some way to make a living while we can still move. It's okay for this person. It's not appropriate to continue to live like this with a family and a family."
When Mr. Ma said this, he glanced at Hu Ximei intentionally or unintentionally, quite implying that he was criticizing Sang Huai.
As for the one who brought the family with him, he was naturally talking about Lin Long and Hu Ximei.
The smile on Hu Ximei's face stopped and the corners of her eyes twitched.
Not angry, but sighing, this Ma family is really a master of craftsmanship!
You said you can't provoke anyone, but you have to provoke Lin Long.
This man is different from your half-hearted old man. He is a real power.
The reason why Lin Long is so easy-going now, Hu Ximei guessed, is because he is training his Taoist heart in the world of mortals and wants to spend his life as a mortal.
But if he really made this person angry and pinched Ma to death, it would just be a matter of taking a breather.
The ants don't know the majesty of the dragon. Even if they show their little minions, they will only look pathetic.
Just as Hu Ximei thought, Lin Long was not angry because of Ma's provocation and was still smiling.
Putting down the tea cup in his hand, Lin Long said with a smile: "Taoist Master Jiang is indeed not a merchant, but I do have a suggestion. I wonder if Taoist Jiang is willing to listen."
Everyone looked at Lin Long suspiciously.
"Brother Lin is joking, I have no capital and no skills, how about this..."
Jiang Ziya was halfway through what he said, but couldn't continue.
With this description, I really seem to be like what Ma said, a piece of iron trash.
Even Song Yiren, who had been helping Jiang Ziya speak, had his mouth twitching.
Brother, you are too honest.
Lin Long smiled slightly.
"Tao Zhang Jiang, after all these years in the mountains, you must be able to do divination, right?"
Jiang Ziya was stunned: "Of course I know how to do divination."
"That's all right, isn't this a hugely profitable deal?"
Jiang Ziya hesitated after hearing this.
"Isn't this, deception and abduction, the way of making a living for those wandering warlocks in the world?"
As a disciple of the sage Chan Cult, Jiang Ziya still maintains his own identity somewhat.
Lin Long smiled and shook his head: "Tao Zhang Jiang's words are wrong."
"Wandering warlocks are just observing words and deeds, using evil methods."
"Taoist Jiang, you are truly talented and knowledgeable, and you speak straightforwardly. How can you say you are deceiving?"
In just a few words, Jiang Ziya was moved by the words.
Lin Long saw this and continued: "Besides, Daoist Jiang, you don't have to lose face. What Madam Madam said just now is not unreasonable. Staying at Brother Song's house like this is not an option. After all, you have to make a living."
Song Yiren was busy trying to explain, but was interrupted by Lin Long waving his hand.
"I'm going to be like Daochang Jiang and sell some calligraphy and paintings to make a living."
Jiang Ziya was very moved when he heard that Lin Long wanted to accompany him.
After listening to this, Ma felt that Lin Long's words made sense, and suddenly became happy again.
The storm finally subsided.
…
Returning to the courtyard, Hu Ximei hesitated and asked in a low voice: "Master, are you really going to the street tomorrow?"
Hu Ximei was very puzzled. Why would a big man like Lin Long let himself be exposed because of Ma's few words?
"Master, if it's because of that Ma family, the slave family will deal with her tonight!"
Lin Long smiled playfully: "I didn't expect you to say this."
Hu Ximei blushed and lowered her head shyly.
Through these few months of contact, Hu Ximei had figured out some of Lin Long's temperament.
Although this boss is very powerful, as long as he is not deliberately provoking and seeking death, Lin Long will generally not take action.
