Zhang Chengxi and Lu Zheng were talking in the cherry blossom forest. Cui Da kept guarding outside. His expression was very nervous. He stood at the only entrance to the forest. In his heart, Lu Zheng and Zhang Chengxi communicated this time. No one can disturb.
He couldn't predict the outcome of this conversation, but Zhang Chengxi and Lu Zheng had already come out just as Cui Da was in trouble.
"Butler, what did you do? The old lady asked you to prepare a reward of one thousand taels of silver. Are you ready?" Zhang Chengxi saw Cui Da, and said with a slap in the face.
Cui Da was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Zhang Chengxi meant, he said: "Um, second master, this..."
"Okay, okay, brother Zheng, I will personally go and get you the silver! You are the protagonist and the only protagonist at the cherry blossom banquet tonight! There are still a few kids in our family who are also on the list, but they are not like you Similarly, you are a solid talent, and they still have a long way to go.
Tonight is an opportunity. If they **** their tails, don't forget to beat them, hey, don't give them a bit of color, look at them, they still treat you as a bully! "Zhang Chengxi said.
He patted Lu Zheng on the shoulder very affectionately, and said, "Okay, the first talent is in our house, our family has a unique face!"
After Zhang Chengxi finished speaking, he rushed to the old lady's yard, but Cui Da staggered and almost fell.
Rao was because his city was extremely deep, and he couldn't hide his inner shock. He opened his eyes to look at Zhang Chengxi, and then at Lu Zheng. He wondered if Lu Zheng had poured ecstasy soup on Zhang Chengxi.
How is this going? It only took a while, and Zhang Chengxi's attitude took a 180-degree turn. How did Lu Zheng do it?
Zhang Chengxi left, Cui Dadao: "Brother Zheng, what did you talk about with the second master? The second master is so happy?"
Lu Zheng said indifferently: "After all, it's a family, there is no trouble to get through, and the bones are still connected to the tendons. Doesn't the housekeeper also say the same?"
When Cui Dayi heard Lu Zheng's words, he was choked and rolled his eyes. What a **** and a lie! If Lu Zheng and the Zhang family were in the same family, would the old lady wish him to die?
But what Lu Zheng said is exactly what Cui Da said before. This nonsense was said by Cui Da himself. Lu Zheng now fights back with the same words. Even if Cui Da is unpleasant, he can only hide it. In my heart, I can't show it.
...
In the evening, the cherry blossom feast, the scenic mountain is brightly lit.
The old lady was in the dark, and the furnishings in the yard had long been removed. The old lady was lying alone in the warm pavilion and all the maids and women were hiding far away.
Everyone knows that the old lady is in a bad mood. Who dares to touch her old man's mold at this time? The palm of the lamp was very much, the mistress Hua Hanyun came over, Xixiang hurriedly leaned over, Hua Hanyun lowered her voice and said:
"How is it? Is the old lady asleep?"
Xixiang lowered his voice and said, "No. I stayed alone in the quiet room for two hours. After coming out, I didn't eat anything. He lay in the warm pavilion, saying he was sleeping, with his eyes open. He said he didn't sleep, he didn't move. Don't move, no one dare to disturb."
Hua Hanyun said, "Well, let the chicken soup be boiled in the kitchen, and the lotus seed soup is also boiled for later use. The old lady has a knot today. Tian Zepeng has not been able to win, and the ancestors are not happy!"
Xixiang said: "I think Brother Zheng is too arrogant, and the old lady feels uncomfortable, right?"
"Dead girl, be careful of your mouth!" Hua Hanyun made a gesture of opening her mouth, Xixiang shrank her neck, and stuck her tongue out, but Hua Hanyun laughed and said: "Remember, this will happen in the future. I can't say any more, let the old lady listen, you can't eat and walk around."
The two of them were hiding in the side hall and talking, when there was a sudden noise in the yard, Hua Hanyun frowned, and Xixiang stuck her head out and shouted:
"What's the noise outside, don't you know that the old lady has rested?"
The old maid in charge ran over and said, "Girl, it's the second master who has come here. I have taken away the silver table in the yard. Why don't you tell the old lady?"
"Ah? This..." Xixiang exclaimed, turning his gaze to Hua Hanyun, Hua Hanyun asked in confusion: "What kind of silver?"
"What kind of silver can it be? The one thousand taels of silver was originally prepared for Tian Zepeng, but later... you know... the other things were collected, but no one dared to move the silver, I was going to go. I ask you to see what to do, the second master has taken it now, should I tell the old lady?"
Hua Hanyun suddenly realized, "I understand, don't have to do this, the second master is also in front of his home!"
"Two girls, what kind of tongue do you chew?" Suddenly, a voice rang, and Hua Hanyun and Xixiang were frightened at the same time. When they turned their heads, they saw the old lady standing behind them at some point.
The two of them exclaimed, Hua Hanyun hurriedly greeted him and said: "Old ancestor, whoops, you have finally got up, quickly, quickly, prepare soup for the ancestor. Old ancestor, you sit here, the stove Adding fire, here is the main hall!"
The old ancestor was helped to sit down in the main hall and lit the lamp. She said, "Who is noisy in the courtyard outside?"
"It's the second master who came just now!" Xixiang said.
While Xixiang was talking, Zhang Chengxi came over from the yard. He had heard that the old lady had gotten up, so he came to take a look.
"Mother, you look pretty good, but the child is afraid that you can't think about it, and you get sick again. That's really worrying!" Zhang Chengxi said, and he pondered:
"Mother, the child has already figured it out. Brother Zheng is a lucky man. Whatever it should be his is his. We can't stop it no matter what.
In fact, think about it carefully. After all, this time the county test is our family's advantage. The buddies are all on the list. This is a happy event!
Brother Zheng got the head of the case, and the head of the case went out from the lintel of our Zhang family. This is also a matter of glorifying the lintel of our family. Mother, don't you think this is the reason? "
While talking, Zhang Chengxi observed Mother Zhang’s expression and saw that Mother Zhang was not angry. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Although Tian Zepeng is a seedling, he is too young after all. He is not a star or a half behind his brother Zhizheng. This time he If he didn't win the case, it was also a blessing. After this setback, it was also a warning and spur to him, and it would be good or bad for the road behind him!"
Mother Zhang frowned slowly, and squinted at Zhang Chengxi and said, "Chengxi, why did you figure it out so quickly? Hey, I'm afraid you can't figure it out. I'm worried that you can't help but ruin today's Sakura Banquet. It seems that I am worrying too much!"
Zhang's mother is indeed worried about Zhang Chengxi. Her son knows best that Zhang Chengxi's temperament is not good and tolerant. This time he has suffered too much. If he loses control of his emotions, and he has paid so much before, it will fall short. It will be too much for the loss.
And now that Zhang’s mother saw Zhang Chengxi figured it out, she let go of the stone in her heart, and asked again: "Chengxi, did you come here to see me specifically? Or is there something else? Just go busy with nothing else." Go, we must make the evening banquet well, make it lively, and make it a success."
Zhang Chengxi rubbed his hands and said: "Mother, I came here to get the silver reward! The one thousand taels of white silver I let people carry it to the cherry blossom forest. Tonight, the cherry blossom banquet is the case leader, this rewards me in public. Send it out to show the courage of my Zhang family, and at the same time inspire and spur other students, to strive for everyone to follow him as an example, perform exceptionally in the next two exams, and win honor for my Xinhe County! "
Mother Zhang's eyes suddenly widened, and her expression instantly froze on her face. She raised her hand, pointed at Zhang Chengxi with her finger and put it down, then raised her hand again. She raised her hand several times, but she didn't say a word.
Hua Hanyun saw the clue from the side, and she was shocked by Zhang Chengxi's attitude in her heart. What's going on? In the afternoon, he talked harshly, slapped the table, stared, and threatened that the matter was endless, and the posture was never to let go, and must be done to the end.
It's only been a while now, so why has it changed? He called Brother Zheng so affectionate, is he really a real uncle?
"Old ancestor...you..." Hua Hanyun leaned over to Mother Zhang.
"I...I...I have a stomachache..." Mother Zhang held back for a long time, and finally suffocated a sentence. She sighed and said, "This is a thousand taels of silver, a thousand taels of fine silver. These silvers are enough for ordinary people to live a lifetime. Even if my Zhang family in Yangzhou is known as rich and noble, one thousand taels is by no means a small amount. I spend only a few hundred taels a year on Qingxuguan! Chengxi, you can know?"
Zhang Chengxi nodded and said: "Mother, the child knows! However, the child feels that the thousand taels of silver is worth the money. First, Brother Zheng deserves his name. He is a well-known talent in Yangzhou. This is him. Winning the first time at the end of the game, the reward!
Second, my Zhang family has a promise first. Everyone in Xinhe County knows that today Sakura Banquet will fulfill this promise, let the Xinhe students know the spirit of my Zhang family, encourage everyone to study hard, and take Brother Zheng as an example. .
Thirdly, Tian Zepeng and others, including Haoran, Tang'er, and Zhen'er, they are a little bit of a tail. Being with you today is an example. Tian Zepeng thought that his case was settled, and he was proud and complacent. Today, let him see who is the real case leader, and teach him a lesson, so that he can remember it deeply. The child believes that he will remember this matter in the future, which is good for his growth! "
Zhang Chengxi talked eloquently, and unexpectedly said three truths at once. Zhang's mother stopped in her ears, and she felt uncomfortable. Which side of Zhang Chengxi is on earth? Why is he talking for the little **** of the Lu family everywhere?
At that time, the girls brought the soup for the old lady, Hua Hanyun saw the old lady's appearance, and screamed:
"Didn't you see that the ancestor's stomach hurts? Go down, go down, all roll off, the things that have no eyesight, the ancestors have raised your trash for nothing!"
