"What about people, if you pluck the grass in the corner, it won't look like it."

"Xiaolan, how did you clean it, this flower is half dead, quickly, change it for two plates."

"Listen, everybody, dress neatly, and don't let people see jokes."

In the Zheng family, the head of the family, Zheng Changduo, paid attention to his subordinates from time to time, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was preparing to welcome Zheng Peng back to the Zheng family.

The once glorious Yuancheng Zheng family was about to sink like everyone, and finally came up with a character, as the head of the family, Zheng Changduo naturally would not give up easily.

Although Zheng Peng was once expelled from the house, deep down, Zheng Changduo still loves Zheng Peng, otherwise he would have turned a blind eye after Zheng Peng had suffered so many disasters, and finally under Zheng Yuanye's persuasion, he reluctantly gave up for the sake of his family.

After all, you can't write two Zheng characters with one stroke.

"Aye, seeing that you are tired, you have been busy until now when you get up, and you will not take a break, just brewed tea, take a sip to moisten your throat and then talk." At this time, Zheng Yuanye appeared and said with a concerned face.

"It's fine." Zheng Changduo nodded.

I've been busy for so long, and I'm really a little thirsty, but the second child will be considerate, although he is a little out of tune on weekdays.

Seeing Zheng Changduo drinking tea, Zheng Yuanye's eyes rolled, and he said with a smile: "Aya, I see that you have been asking your subordinates to clean the courtyard these days, just wait for Peng'er to come back." ”

"Well, yes, after all, it's a family, and the meat doesn't leave the skin, Peng'er has been wandering for so long, it's time to go home." Zheng Changduo said with some sighs.

"That is, if you don't come back, those matchmakers who come to the door to propose marriage are about to step on the wooden threshold of our Zheng family."

Zheng Yuanye didn't say anything wrong, knowing that after Zheng Peng was promoted to the rank of knight, the matchmaker who came to propose marriage was like a carp crossing the river, especially some people who couldn't get in touch with the upper class at all also asked people to take the initiative to propose, Zheng Changduo was happy in his eyes, but he didn't know what Zheng Peng's mind was, and he didn't know if Zheng Peng would return, so he couldn't bear to agree.

Either way, these are the glory of the Yuancheng Zheng family.

Zheng Yuanye said with some worry: "Aya, we are wishful thinking, think about it, Zheng Peng has been out for so long, no matter how good or bad he is, he has never written back, if he hadn't asked someone to send money and gifts to his eldest brother every once in a while, I really thought he had forgotten here, maybe, he was holding back his strength to give Aya a horse." ”

"How dare he?" Zheng Changduo raised his eyebrows and said angrily.

"It's hard to say, now he is a general and has a knighthood" Zheng Yuanye said with a worried face: "I'm afraid that he will be proud and give his family a face, it doesn't matter to us, just endure it, but Aya is different, if it spreads, I'm just afraid..."

Zheng Changduo looked at his face the most, and said with a resolute face when he heard this: "If you want to play prestige and find someone else to play, if you want to play in front of my old bones, it is a dream." ”

"Aya is right" Zheng Yuanye said while the iron was hot: "If Peng'er comes back, Aya should not be afraid of him, and should give him a dismissal, so that he knows that no matter what official he does, he must respect the elderly." ”

Zheng Yuanye thought very clearly, with Zheng Peng's attitude towards his father and son, he would definitely not give himself good fruits to eat after he came back, and if he wanted to live a nourishing life, it was best for the old man to be able to suppress Zheng Peng, because the old man has always valued harmony, and he is most unwilling to see the younger generations not united.

So, before Zheng Peng came back, he wanted to persuade the old man to stand firm.

Zheng Changduo said with some hesitation: "But Peng'er is an official, he can't lose face, right?" ”

"No matter how big an official is, he is also the grandson of Aya" Zheng Yuanye fanned the flames and said: "Since ancient times, how can there be any matter of elders accommodating younger generations, no matter how big an official he is, he can only play official authority outside, the family is not a court, nor an officialdom, when you enter the house, you have to listen to the words of the elders, don't think that being an official is very majestic, the Tang Dynasty is loyal and filial piety, if he dares to be unfilial, he can't be careful of officials." ”

"That's right," Zheng Changduo said with a resolute face: "He wants to play prestige with my old bone, and my old bone hasn't held him accountable for all these years of disrespect." ”

Under Zheng Yuanye's instigation, Zheng Changduo's attitude became tougher.

Zheng Yuanye instigated a few more words, and waited until Zheng Changduo's attitude became resolute, then he left satisfied, thinking in his heart: It's still the old guy who is so foolish, there is the support of the old man here, and he is not afraid that Zheng Peng will make trouble for himself and provoke the contradiction between the old man and Zheng Peng, which is equivalent to transferring the contradiction.

At that time, he will jump out and act as a peacemaker, so as to get the favor of both sides, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

After persuading the old man, Zheng Yuanye felt a little bored, so he casually found an excuse and went out to have fun.

Hold a celebration banquet, the father and son get a lot of benefits from it, they have money in their pockets, and they are complimented everywhere when they go out, of course, it is good to go out.

If he was at home, the old man would look unpleasant, and he would be reprimanded again.

After Zheng Yuanye left, Zheng Changduo didn't go to order his subordinates to work, but sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, thinking about how to give him a dismount when Zheng Peng went home.

Just when Zheng Changduo was searching for how to deal with Zheng Peng, Lao Xu, who was guarding the door, suddenly ran in three steps and two steps, shouting as he ran: "Ah Lang, Ah Lang..."

Interrupted by thinking, Zheng Changduo said a little unhappily on the spot: "What, the old man is not dead yet." ”

On weekdays, Lao Xu would have been so frightened that he knelt down and begged for mercy when he saw the head of the family lose his temper, but at this moment he didn't care about begging for mercy, but said breathlessly: "Ah... Man... Here it comes... Here it comes. ”

Here it comes?

Zheng Changduo stood up all of a sudden, and said a little anxiously: "What's the matter, is Peng'er back?" ”

Before the Chinese New Year, Zheng Yuanjia asked Zheng Peng to come back to accept Juetian and Yihu according to Zheng Changduo's instructions, and Zheng Peng replied that some official duties had not yet been completed, and they could not come back until the New Year.

Lao Xu finally relieved his breath, and said with a look of surprise: "Ah Lang, it's not Peng Xiaolangjun, it's someone from the Zheng family in Xingyang, this is his worship post, please take a look." ”

What, the people of the Zheng clan in Xingyang?

And the prayer post?

Zheng Changduo took the post in disbelief and looked at it, that's right, the person who came was Zheng Changshou from the Zheng family in Xingyang, and from the perspective of generation, Zheng Changduo was the same generation.

Seeing this post, Zheng Changduo gasped: the same generation, however, the status is the difference between cloud and mud, Zheng Changduo is from the side house, Zheng Changduo is from the side house, Zheng Changshou is from the Changfang lineage, Xingyang Zheng family, Zheng Changshou, who is standing outside the door waiting at the moment, is the core elder of the Xingyang Zheng family, and it is said that he also participated in the revision of the family tree.

Seeing this post, Zheng Changduo felt flattered.

There is also a gift list under the prayer post, as for what the gift list is, Zheng Changduo was so excited that he didn't care about it.

"Where are the people?" Zheng Changduo immediately asked loudly.

Lao Xu was startled, and hurriedly responded: "If you go back to Ah Lang, you will wait outside the door." ”

When Zheng Changduo heard this, he couldn't help but kick him: "Tian Shenu, what are you still doing, quickly open the door and welcome people in." ”
