Zheng Peng heard Guo Ketang's complaints, and said a little apologetically: "There are some things delayed today, but it's not too late, Miss Guo, didn't you just come back?" ”

"It's from your hometown, right?" Guo Ketang said in surprise.

"I really can't hide anything from you" Zheng Peng said helplessly: "In this acre and three points of land in your township, you can't hide any wind and grass from Guo Mansion." ”

Guo Ketang pursed his lips and said, "Look at what you said, Miss Ben doesn't have time to spy on you, it's someone from your hometown who came here to visit, why, don't you know?" ”

Zheng Peng really didn't know about this, and said curiously: "This... To be honest, I really don't know, Miss Guo, what happened when they arrived at your mansion? ”

"Miss Ben is not interested in them, I heard that a new batch of Su silk came to the silk village, go out and pick a few horses, no, I will meet you as soon as I come back."

Guo Ketang and Zheng Peng are cooperative relations, and they can be regarded as friends, so they don't have to worry too much, but the Zheng family's uncles and nephews are different, strange men, Guo Ketang needs to be avoided, so when he heard someone visiting, he went out shopping directly through the back door.

"I see." Zheng Peng didn't know what Zheng Cheng was doing in Guo's mansion, and Guo Ketang couldn't say it clearly, so he didn't ask anymore.

Zheng Yuanxing and Zheng Cheng suddenly appeared, Zheng Peng felt that the formation was a bit grand, and now he understands that it is estimated that he is secondary, and he mainly goes to visit Guo Mansion.

Guo Ketang was not interested in Zheng Yuanxing and Zheng Cheng, and said to Zheng Peng very simply: "Uncle has something to do with you, you go to see him first, and then go to the side hall to discuss, there are some problems in the processing workshop to discuss, and there are safety issues." ”

"Okay."

When the group entered the door, Guo Ketang went back to the boudoir, and Steward Guo took Zheng Peng to Old Man Guo.

Halfway through, Steward Guo suddenly whispered, "Zheng Gongzi, there are some things that the little old man doesn't know whether to say or not." ”

"Butler, we are also old acquaintances, if we have anything to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

Steward Guo looked left and right, and then lowered his voice and said, "The relationship between Gongzi Zheng and the family doesn't seem to be very harmonious.....

"Alas, why don't you get along, no matter if you say it Steward Guo's jokes, you will be kicked out of your family to stand on your own, by the way, my third uncle and cousin, what bad things did they say about me?"

Paper can't hold the fire, like this, with Guo Fu's ability, he can know that eight or nine are not far from ten, and Zheng Peng didn't deliberately hide it, and said it very frankly.

Zheng Peng's sigh seems to include a lot of hidden feelings, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, the family is big, and there are many intrigues between brothers, Steward Guo has long been surprised, and it is not easy to say anything when he hears it, so he told Zheng Cheng's uncle and nephew about the journey of entering Guo's mansion, and even said that the two of them were forked out of the house and Zheng Cheng was sucked out of the bamboo stick.

"Deserved" Zheng Peng said with some relief: "My cousin, I have no tricks to deal with outsiders, but I am a good hand in the nest, I didn't expect him to be able to pull a handful, but I didn't expect to fall into the well, and he was really clean, but it's a pity that my third uncle suffered with him." ”

Steward Guo said with some disapproval: "As an elder, seeing that the younger generations are intriguing and falling into the well, they are still standing by and watching, and they are living a sloppy life and doing a disgraceful job, even if they are beaten, they deserve to be beaten." ”

When Zheng Peng heard this, he was a little silent in his heart.

It is said that the Zheng family of Yuancheng is on the road to fame, Zheng Changduo, Zheng Yuanjia, Zheng Peng, it can be said that the three generations of people have taken over the baton and gained little, so that many children in the clan are a little sluggish, and their enthusiasm is greatly reduced.

It's a very simple truth, seeing that people who are smarter than themselves and more diligent than themselves have been defeated repeatedly, the young man has become a pulsatilla, and it is strange that he is not hit, like the third uncle Zheng Yuanxing is an example, seeing that there is no hope, he simply gave up his pen to engage in business, without pressure, and there is no motivation, and finally becomes a small businessman who is wise and shy and cowers.

Even Zheng Cheng's status is higher than him.

Zheng Peng suddenly smiled and leaned his head over, and said in a low voice: "That Zheng Cheng has been calculating, Steward Guo, have you ever taught him a lesson?" ”

"Hehe" Steward Guo laughed twice, and said a little embarrassedly: "The little old man is old, his hands and feet are not flexible, and there are many people, that is, he punched him more than ten times and kicked him a few feet in the ass, which can barely be regarded as giving Zheng Gongzi a breath, how about it, is it interesting?" ”

"Righteousness" Zheng Peng laughed, and then said mysteriously: "Where do you know where there is a Peugeot little widow, introduced to you?" ”

Steward Guo paused for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Gongzi Zheng is really good at making fun of Xiao Lao, but seriously, chatting with Gongzi is a very interesting thing." ”

Zheng Peng is talented and personable, and has a good relationship with the people of Guo's house, but he never bullies others, nor is he snobbish to his subordinates, he is sincere, has no shelves, and puts people on the same footing, which makes Steward Guo very moved.

What about the little widow who is still Peugeot, last time he dared to lie to his uncle that there was a little woman who didn't wear clothes, this Zheng Gongzi is really interesting, what Steward Guo thought in his heart was: Is it a talented person who speaks so uninhibited and unrestrained?

I wanted to tease Steward Guo, but when I arrived at the back garden, as soon as Old Man Guo saw Zheng Peng, he immediately greeted: "That kid from the Zheng family, come here." ”

"Hello Uncle Guo." Zheng Peng hurriedly saluted him.

Old man Guo looked Zheng Peng up and down, snorted coldly, and said while drinking tea: "What have you been busy with lately, and you haven't seen me for so long, a bad old man." ”

Zheng Peng saw that Steward Guo was standing far away under the big tree and listening to the instructions, and there were no maidservants waiting for Old Man Guo, so he said with a smile: "Find the little woman who walks around without clothes for Uncle Guo, isn't Uncle Guo obsessed?" ”

With a "poof", Old Man Guo squirted out all the tea, coughed a few times, waved away Steward Guo who wanted to come over to serve, pointed at Zheng Peng and scolded: "You stinky boy, can't you talk well?" ”

"Uncle Guo, there are more people who can talk to you well, and there are not many people who talk like a junior, knowing that Uncle Guo is very good-looking, so I just made a little joke, and I don't dare to change it to someone else." Zheng Peng said with a smile.

Old man Guo thought about it, it was true, now everyone in the family is respectful to him, and when he is old, his former friends have either passed away or are sleek or have other plans, so that there is no one to talk to.

Until the appearance of Zheng Peng.

It's a little hard to get over on the face, but I don't hate it in my heart, otherwise, with Old Man Guo's temperament, I would have called someone to beat it out a long time ago.

Zheng Cheng just said the wrong thing, and Old Man Guo didn't even have an explanation, so he directly asked people to cross out.

Old man Guo deliberately put on a straight face and said: "Don't be a sycophant, I will punish you for anything I say today, I will punish you for copying a thousand-word text, remember to copy it well, and if you don't copy it well, you will have to copy it again." ”

I have long known that Old Man Guo wants calligraphy with a thin gold body, Zheng Peng has heard Guo Ketang say it a few times, and Old Man Guo has also hinted at asking for a pen post for the second time, but he is too lazy to pay attention to it, and by the way, he hangs his appetite, but he didn't expect that before a quarter of an hour after coming in, Old Man Guo showed his "fox tail".

Can't find a better excuse?

It's good to buy with a lot of money, or to use a beauty.

Zheng Peng didn't compromise so easily, and said with a bitter face: "Deliberately making your old man happy, this will also be punished, then I won't dare to talk to you in the future." ”

"What do you mean by that, you stinky boy? Is the old man the kind of person who is cautious? Old man Guo said angrily.

"Oh, no more copying?"

"Of course you have to be punished, but it's not to punish you for joking with the old man, one yard is one yard, and there are other reasons for punishing you."

"What is the reason? The younger generation doesn't seem to have offended Uncle Guo, right? ”

Old man Guo said vigorously: "When you entered the back garden just now, it was your left foot that came in first, this is not right, it should be the right foot that stepped in first, so you will be punished for copying." ”

Cold one, this is okay?

"And this rule? I haven't heard of it. ”

"I haven't heard of it, right, the old man has just decided, can't he?"

“.... OK"

It's really a sin that you want to add, and there are no words for it.

Copying books and talking about business, Zheng Peng tossed in Guo's mansion for more than an hour before coming out, and as soon as he came out, he saw Lu Shu pacing back and forth at the door of Guo's mansion with a nervous face, and when he saw Zheng Peng coming out, he ran over quickly, and said in a panic: "Less... Master. ”

Zheng Peng patted her hand and said, "Don't worry, say something slowly, with the young master here, the sky can't fall." ”

His face was burnt and his speech was a little flustered, something must have happened.

Hearing Zheng Peng's words, Lu Shu relaxed a little, and then said anxiously: "Less... Young master, it's Lu Shu who is not good, just talking to San Lang Jun in the lobby of the new house, and after San Lang Jun and Cheng Xiao Lang Jun left, they found that they had lost a money bag, which contained a gold hairpin and some change that Miss Guo gave to the maid, and the quilt in the young master's room also made people splash ink. Alas, it's all Lushu who doesn't look at the home, less... Young master, what now? ”

What, someone dares to steal their own things, and dare to splash ink on their own bed?

Zheng Peng was angry on the spot!

What is possible, nine times out of ten, it was Zheng Cheng's guy who did it.
