Zheng Yuanye and his son Zheng Cheng looked at each other, nodded slightly to each other, and then said like a peacemaker: "Father, Cheng Er is right, our Yuancheng Zheng family not only has a family law to follow, but also family affection to follow, as the saying goes, the law is not a human favor, Xiaopeng is still on the genealogy of our Zheng family, it's good to go and visit, lest outsiders say that our Zheng family doesn't miss flesh and blood family affection, if Xiaopeng is swaggering and deceiving in the name of our Yuancheng Zheng family, he can also be alerted, let me and Cheng Er visit together." ”

After a pause, Zheng Yuanye whispered: "Guixiang Guo is the descendant of Guo Shangshu, Guo Shangshu's former protégé is all over the world, and even the relationship with several princes is extraordinary. ”

Guixiang Guo's?

As soon as Zheng Yuanye's words fell, the eyes of the people present couldn't help but light up, and their eyes showed a light of expectation.

Yuancheng County and Guixiang County are adjacent to each other, both under the jurisdiction of Weizhou, Guixiang has produced a big man, both civil and military, official to Shangshu, this matter Weizhou no one knows, no one knows, some people say that the Guo family stomps their feet, the whole Weizhou has to tremble, if you can get involved with the Guo family, the future is immeasurable.

And the Guo family has a woman who has not been out of the cabinet, who is knowledgeable and courteous, beautiful and dignified, and it is said that the matchmaker who came to the door to ask for marriage stepped on the threshold, which is no secret for a long time.

Zheng Yuanwang said helplessly: "Our family and the Guo family are not in-laws or old friends, and they have always had little contact, so I am afraid of touching a gray nose." ”

The current Yuancheng Zheng family, if you want power or power, you don't have money, but you don't have money, that is, Xingyang's own family is estranged, to put it bluntly, it is a rich man, a son of the Zheng family, with average appearance, and his talent is not outstanding, can people look at it?

"Stupid, fourth" Zheng Yuanye retorted: "I haven't tried it, who knows?" What if the two really look at each other? Even if you can't get married, it's not a bad thing to get to know the next Guo family. ”

"Father, didn't you say that you know the Guo family?" Zheng Yuanxing seemed to remember something, and suddenly asked.

Zheng Yuanwang's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Really? Father, why didn't you say it earlier? ”

"Ahem" Old Man Zheng coughed dryly, and said a little unnaturally: "It's all old things, I almost forgot about it." ”

The Guo family in Guixiang, the most outstanding is Guo Yuanzhen and Guo Yuanzhi brothers, talented and famous since childhood, Mr. Zheng participated in the literary meeting between scholars when he was young, but he was not famous at that time, and he had seen it a few times, and he said a few words politely, how can it be regarded as a friendship.

"That's okay" Zheng Yuanye rubbed his palms and said excitedly: "Let Cheng'er go, just treat it as a junior and an elder to say hello, it can be regarded as throwing stones to ask for directions, friendship, a few more times will be loved, go to visit Xiaopeng, by the way, visit relatives, it can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone." ”

The father and son have the same heart, as soon as Zheng Cheng proposed, Zheng Yuanye knew what his son was planning, and he agreed and cooperated on the spot, and when it came to Guo's visit, he also pushed his son out as soon as possible.

Old man Zheng looked at the pitiful eldest son on the side, and then at Zheng Yuanye, Zheng Cheng and his son, who were eager to try, stroked his beard lightly, and finally nodded and said: "Third child, didn't you say that there is a batch of goods to be dealt with in Guixiang, take Cheng'er to Guo's house to recognize the door, and by the way see what Feiteng is doing." ”

You can't go to the big house, so as not to have credibility, but it's not fair to go to the second room, Zheng Yuanwang in the fourth room can only farm, be honest, and can't get on the stage, and the third Zheng Yuanye is a businessman, who goes south and north, and is good at observing the face, so it is most suitable for him to go with Zheng Cheng.

"Yes, Father." Zheng Yuanxing hurriedly agreed.

Zheng Cheng and his father Zheng Yuanye glanced at each other, and then said confidently: "Cheng Er listens to his father's orders. ”

Although Zheng Yuanye can't go together, it doesn't matter, the third uncle is timid and sleek, not difficult to deal with, damn Zheng Peng, he made himself the laughing stock of Yuancheng County, I don't know how much effort it took to hide from the eldest father, in order to fill the ten holes, he also asked his father to smoke two, this time, he wanted to kill Zheng Peng's hope of going home with his own hands.

Zheng Cheng sneered in his heart: Hmph, Zheng Peng, you wait for me, see how I kill you, by the way, take care of it then, maybe Miss Guo will be felt by her own male color and sincerity, and she will be hugged by the beauty, won't she be able to get the wind and the rain when the time comes......

"Ahh Super" Just when Zheng Cheng wanted to get into it, Zheng Peng, who was far away in your hometown, couldn't help but sneeze loudly.

When Steward Guo saw it, he said with concern: "Zheng Gongzi, it doesn't matter, there is still a coat on the carriage, it is snowing, be careful of the wind cold." ”

Zheng Peng rubbed his nose and said self-deprecatingly: "It's okay, I guess it's a beautiful woman who remembers so-and-so, thank you Steward Guo for your kindness." ”

Steward Guo, who is much older than himself, wears less than himself, and Zheng Peng doesn't want to admit defeat in front of him.

Steward Guo laughed, and no longer insisted, pointing to the island in front of him and said: "Zheng Gongzi, look here, the island is in the middle of the lake, surrounded by the lake, about 100 zhang long, about 40 zhang wide, the lake is connected with the leading river, the official road is nearby, the water and land supply is convenient, crops have been planted on it before, so it is quite flat, as long as a few grass houses can be rebuilt, but the area is a little smaller, if you are not satisfied, Xiao Lao will take Gongzi to pick it up." ”

The diversion river is a river that runs through Guixiang County, which is dug for the convenience of irrigation, and has the function of a canal, which is a very important external transportation channel for Guixiang County.

"Don't pick it anymore, just let it be, the negotiation and purchase will bother the housekeeper." Zheng Peng agreed on the spot.

It's just braised meat, just find a hidden place, and it's not a shocking secret.

Steward Guo smiled indifferently, stretched out his hand to draw a large circle in front of him, and said with some pride: "Zheng Gongzi, what you see in front of you, including that island, is the property of Guo Mansion, and you don't need to buy it, Childe and Miss Say Hello, you can start construction at any time, hehe, Xiao Lao also saved a lot of effort, and set up the processing workshop here, and the people nearby are all Zhuang Households of Guo Mansion, and there are strangers who can't hide at all, and you can call someone to support you at any time, which is undoubtedly another layer of protection." ”

Rich man.

Zheng Peng was secretly surprised: such a big place, if not a thousand, but hundreds of acres, the nearest river, is considered a high-grade paddy field, or connected, the value is higher, the value here alone is more than 10,000 yuan, it is really worthy of being a scholar, it is simply rich.

No wonder Guo Ketang took out a thousand guan without blinking an eye, let alone asking for instructions or something.

This is the real wealthy family. ]

Zheng Peng smiled and said a little embarrassedly: "Steward Guo wants to save effort, but I'm afraid I can't save it?" ”

"Didn't you say pick this place? Zheng Gongzi changed his mind? ”

Zheng Peng shook his head and said: "It's a private matter, Steward Guo has also been to the cold house, it is in disrepair, it is too cold, I want to change the house, I want Steward Guo to help me inquire, where is there a good house." ”

The place where he lives is old and dilapidated, not to prevent villains and gentlemen, and to say that the Zheng family threw it to himself like a charity, Zheng Peng didn't want to live for more than a day, and it was ideal to repair one by himself, but it was not suitable to start construction in winter, and a good house could not be built in a short time, so it was better to buy a suitable one directly.

Steward Guo said thoughtfully: "It's time to change the house, I don't know what Zheng Gongzi has for the house?" ”

"Clean, tidy, preferably fully furnished, with a garden, the kind that is ready to move in." Zheng Peng thought about it and put forward his request.

If you want to buy it, you can buy it, you can't be too wronged yourself, hugging the thigh of the Guo family, it's hard to think about it, many people think that they can't live if they leave the Liu family, waiting to see their jokes, and they don't let them get their wish.

This is called the Buddha fighting for a furnace of incense, and people fighting for a breath.

"Little old man understands" Steward Guo had a good impression of Zheng Peng, and said confidently on the spot: "Zheng Gongzi rest assured, there will be good news in less than three days." ”
