Guo Ketang joked with some emotion: "Zheng Gongzi is the champion, and Sister Lu Shu has also become the county lady, the slave family does not dare to be rude, lest you be unhappy and be charged with a big disrespect, wouldn't it be miserable." ”

Seeing Zheng Peng and Lu Shu coming out to pick him up in person, his words and deeds were not slack, and he was even more domineering, and his attitude seemed to be the same as when the two of them were still working hard in your hometown, Guo Ketang was secretly moved in his heart.

In these years, there are too many people who can share hardships and hardships.

Zheng Peng said with a smile: "When it comes to seniority, I still call you a second sister-in-law, which crime to treat, I don't dare to cure your crime, by the way, is it better to call you Miss Guo, or is it better to call you a second sister-in-law?" ”

"It's all right, but it's more kind to call Miss Guo."

Lu Shu brushed the snowflakes off Guo Ketang's shawl for Guo Ketang, and urged: "It's so windy outside, and it's still snowing, if there's anything, let's talk about it when you enter the door." ”

Guo Ketang said happily: "I had something last time, I was in a hurry, and I haven't taken a good look at this mansion, so I must appreciate it this time." ”

"No problem" Zheng Peng said briskly: "If you have time, you can live here for a year and a half, and you can see it clearly, but the premise is that you must first ask for the consent of the second brother." ”

"Your second brother?" Guo Ketang said confidently: "As long as it is the decision of the slave family, he will support it, otherwise, hum..."

The three of them entered the lobby with a smile and a smile, and Lu Shu asked people to serve hot tea and snacks, and held Guo Ketang to chat for a while, and then excused himself to see how the meal was prepared, leaving the hall to Zheng Peng and Guo Ketang.

It can be seen that Guo Ketang was a little absent-minded when chatting, and it was obvious that he had something to discuss with Zheng Peng.

After Lu Shu left, Zheng Peng put down the tea bowl and said straight to the point: "Miss Guo, they are all old acquaintances, what is the matter with rushing to Chang'an in such a hurry?" ”

Cui Xiyi guarded Tubo, with the frequency of writing at least one letter to Guo Ketang every ten years, Guo Ketang must have known that he didn't return to Chang'an so soon, now the weather is cold, and the New Year is approaching, Guo Ketang rushed from Qinghe to Chang'an, there must be something.

Guo Ketang exhaled a long breath and said straight to the point: "Has Guo Tongxiong looked for you?" ”

Zheng Peng didn't answer directly, but asked, "Miss Guo is from his business?" ”

"That's right" Guo Ketang said frankly: "That's right, the slave family received news not long ago, saying that the clan unanimously decided to leave you alone, and to take refuge in the prince, and rushed to Chang'an immediately after receiving the news, hoping to persuade Guo Tongxiong, but he has been avoiding it, and he has no choice but to find the door." ”

When Guo Ketang was not married, he had been squeezed out by the children of the clan, and after marrying Cui Xiyi, the industry in charge of his hands was transferred to Guo Tongxiong, including braised meat, and was completely squeezed out of the core circle of Guo's family in Guixiang.

For Guo Ketang, no matter what happens, there must be a beginning and an end: I don't want Zheng Peng to suffer, and I don't want your hometown Guo to forget about profit.

The longer he gets along with Zheng Peng, the more Guo Ketang knows how terrible Zheng Peng is, no matter when, Zheng Peng always looks like he is in his chest, the kind of self-confidence that comes from the bones is impossible to ignore, and Zheng Peng and Guo Ketang have always been in awe.

Marrying Cui Xiyi, Guo Ketang came into contact with higher-level characters, the more he saw it, the more he resisted the decision of the clan: don't look at Zheng Peng seems to be very talkative, and he doesn't care about many things, that's just for friends, if you underestimate Zheng Peng like this, then you will definitely suffer a big loss, if you know that Zheng Peng is still a small person, for the sake of Lu Shu, he dares to fight with the two famous families of Boling Cui and Taiyuan Wang, Tubo is a hegemon in the Western Regions, and even the Tang Dynasty must focus on appeasement, but after it provokes Zheng Peng, it ends in destroying the country, can your hometown Guo compare with Tubo? It was Guo's return to the court, or Zheng Peng's strong behind.

As for taking refuge in the prince, Guo Ketang is even more powerless to complain about this decision, the discerning people in the court can see that the prince's position is dangerous, Zhao Lifei has survived for so many years and can't sit on the queen's throne to know that the emperor has scruples, and now that Concubine Wu Hui has won the emperor's favor, she has been peeking at the prince's position all the time, and the shrewd people are watching the changes, and the people of the Guo family in your hometown have rushed into it at this sensitive time, saying that the risk is high and the return is also high, they don't know that the prince has not become the emperor for a day, do they have a chance to change?

It's a pity that Guo Ketang's words, the people of the Guo clan in your hometown didn't listen to them at all, and they refused to eat alone and were said to be women's benevolence; Jingfeng Qichang didn't rush to stand in line, and was reprimanded for being a woman with long hair and short knowledge, and also said that the married woman was like spilled water, which made Guo Ketang less finger-pointed, which made Guo Ketang angry.

Zheng Peng spread his hands: "Miss Guo, you are late, that Guo Tongxiong has come to the door for a showdown, people dislike to share too much, and they are ready to eat alone, by the way, that Guo Gongzi has taken refuge in the prince, and he is angry, not only do you want to eat alone, but I still want to give the share of the property I deserve." ”

It's still too late, Guo Ketang sighed in his heart: What he was most worried about still happened.

Guo Ketang took a deep breath, pretended to be relaxed and said, "Looking at Zheng Gongzi's calm face, he must have already gotten the share he deserved, right?" ”

To friends, Zheng Peng is very generous, but he will never give in to people he hates, Guo Ketang knows Zheng Peng's temper well, and when he saw Zheng Peng's smiling appearance, he guessed that he got his share.

Guo Tongxiong did things in the account and secretly transferred property, Guo Ketang also heard about it, after all, he has been in business for so many years, and he has a lot of henchmen, even if Guo Ketang retreats, the news is still well-informed.

Zheng Peng smiled, and soon said with a serious face: "Of course, my money is not so easy to owe, Miss Guo, did you get your share?" ”

"This..."Guo Ketang hesitated, smiled reluctantly, and said with a little bitterness: "I can't write two Guo characters in one stroke, and the family has not treated the slave family badly." ”

"Okay, don't say good things for them, the second brother told me." Zheng Peng said with some indignation.

Zheng Peng and Cui Xiyi have a very good relationship, and later became brothers, Cui Xiyi is very wary of others, but he trusts Zheng Peng and Guo Ziyi very much, and he doesn't hide anything from the two brothers, once he drank a few more glasses, and while talking, he was indignant for his wife Guo Ketang, Guixiang Guo's family had declined before Guo Ketang took over, Guo Ketang seized the opportunity to cooperate with Zheng Peng, and continued to grow Guixiang Guo's family, but many people in the clan felt that Guo Ketang was a woman, and secretly resisted, when Guo Ketang got married, because Guo Ketang was not favored in the clan, And Cui Xiyi was an illegitimate child, and his official position was not obvious at that time, and the Guixiang Guo family was very shabby in his dowry, and the value of his whole body plus the dowry did not exceed 50,000 yuan.

You must know that Guo Ketang presided over the business for the family, showed up, worked hard, and paid millions of tributes, but as a result, there was only one point in the marriage, it is said that there are still people in the dowry clan who disagree, saying that Guo Ketang has a lot of money in and out of a small money, and he doesn't know how much he has secretly greeded, and he is generous to the family's general demand for Zheng Peng, which greatly damages the interests of the family.

A pack of shameless white-eyed wolves.

Guo Ketang smiled bitterly, and said helplessly: "Zheng Gongzi, what family was born in, whether he is a man or a woman, whether he is favored or neglected, no one can choose, and not everyone is as capable and free as Zheng Gongzi, in this world, there is no absolute fairness at all, slave family... Confessed. ”

She is a daughter, she is not reused at home, and she is frequently ridiculed when she goes out to do business, Guo Ketang doesn't know how many times she fantasizes that she is a man, so that everything can be solved, but everything is just thinking, and she has no ability to change it at all.

Hard work is not recognized, achievements are not recognized, and the pay and gain are not equal, even so, Guo Ketang is afraid of worrying about his family, for fear that Zheng Peng will attack the Guo family in your hometown in a fit of anger.

Guixiang Guo thought that if he took refuge in the prince, he could have no fear, and he didn't even take Zheng Peng in his eyes, but Guo Ketang knew that Zheng Peng didn't even give the prince face, and after Lin Xun'er, the "head-grabbing pillar incense", was beaten by the crown princess, the people in the prince's mansion wanted to resolve it many times, but Zheng Mansion didn't give it a chance at all.

It's naïve.

Zheng Peng glanced at Guo Ketang thoughtfully, and suddenly said in a surprising voice: "Miss Guo, you admit it, I don't recognize it, how can you say that you are also my old acquaintance and my second sister-in-law, how can I see you being bullied, rest assured, the share that belongs to you has been taken back for you." ”
