In ancient times, it was not easy to buy a house, for the vast majority of Chinese people, home is the root, the field is life, the greatest wish of a person's life is to leave a good house and more fields for future generations, nothing is not considered to sell the house and the field, in order to prevent neighborhood conflicts, the law stipulates that the sale of the house must be agreed by the neighbors before the transaction.

Fortunately, with Steward Guo, everything was solved.

I wanted to invite Steward Guo to dinner, but I didn't expect Steward Guo to say anything, saying that this was what he should do, and there was still something in the house, so he couldn't stay longer, and finally Zheng Pengsai gave him a big red envelope.

When he went back, Zheng Peng refused Steward Guo's kindness to let the carriage send him, and took Lu Shu to chat while walking.

Lu Shu's interest was very high, one would say how beautiful the shadow wall was, and another would say how good the house was, how fine the furniture was, etc., and couldn't stop at all, Zheng Peng asked with a smile: "Lu Shu, do you like this house?" ”

"I like it" Lu Shu nodded excitedly: "It's just a dream, I didn't expect to live in such a beautiful house, young master, even now, I thought I was dreaming, otherwise, young master, you pinch me." ”

Before Zheng Peng could speak, Lu Shu said a little worriedly: "Forget it, young master, don't pinch it, I'm afraid it's really a dream, if it's really a dream, Lu Shu wants to continue to do it, and never wake up." ”

A little girl with a childish face actually said this kind of understanding of life, how many hardships have been experienced, Zheng Peng felt a little heartache when he heard this, gently pinched Lu Shu's cute face, and said softly: "Don't worry, it's not a dream, this young master is here, even if you don't have to dream, you can live happily." ”

"Thank you, young master." Lu Shu's eyes were red, and she was so moved that she almost didn't cry.

The women of the Tang Dynasty are precocious and sensual, and in the next generation, a little girl of Lu Shu's age still only cares about playing or chasing stars, right?

Zheng Peng was afraid that Lu Shu would think of his deceased father, so he hurriedly diverted the topic, mainly talking about which auspicious day to live on and what belongings to add, and unconsciously chatted about the neighbors nearby.

Lu Shu said with some emotion: "Uncle Qian and Aunt Qian are both good people, Uncle Qian will always give me a section when he sees me on the street, and he doesn't want to give me money, Aunt Qian is good to me, there is something delicious to send us a copy, Uncle Niu helps to guard the door, Aunt Han often sends us self-grown melons and fruits, what a good neighbor, I am a little reluctant to them." ”

"Yes yes" Zheng Peng nodded and said: "I'm also a little reluctant to these good neighbors, by the way, aren't there still a lot of braised pork that I keep for myself, give a little to each of them, just be a little careful." ”

After Guo Ketang became a shareholder, the braised meat business was suspended, Lu Shu likes to eat braised meat, Zheng Peng makes some from time to time, anyway, the braised meat he makes is hygienic and delicious, and it is not bad to eat it as a snack when he is bored, and he made some more yesterday, and it is not bad to give it to his neighbors.

"Well, just listen to the young master." Lu Shu immediately agreed.

When they got home, the two took out the marinated braised meat from the tank, divided it into several portions, and then sent it from house to house.

"Aunt Qian, you're welcome, I've moved to a new house, and I'll have time to go to my new home to have a look."

"Uncle Niu, this is for you to taste, take it."

"What kind of money are you mentioning, Aunt Han, quickly put it away, you really stuff the money, my young master will be angry."

When Zheng Peng and Lu Shu gave the neighbors braised pork, they were embarrassed to ask for it in vain, and they were willing to accept it under the persuasion of the two, and thanked Zheng Peng's master and servant again and again, and then stuffed the delicious food to the two, like homemade pickles, freshly baked cakes or something, what to give, as a return gift.

There are contacts and contacts, which are called courtesy exchanges in traditional Chinese culture, which is an excellent traditional culture, however, in the eyes of some people, Zheng Peng's behavior is a little tasteless.

For example, in Zheng Cheng's eyes.

Zheng Peng left, but the damage left to Zheng Cheng was too deep, Zheng Cheng just dreamed about how to take revenge, but his reputation was damaged, his pocket was shy, and his position in the family was not yet stable, so he forcibly endured it.

There is no way, you have to secretly fill the pit that Zheng Peng dug for herself, and you have to work hard to please the old man in the family, ready to replace Zheng Peng's position step by step.

I have to say that as soon as Zheng Peng left, the resources of the Zheng family began to slowly tilt towards Zheng Cheng, Zheng Cheng and his son just breathed a sigh of relief, but they didn't expect the first snow in winter, the old man suddenly remembered Zheng Peng under the infection of Zheng Yuan's family, which was a bad signal.

Zheng Cheng jumped out in time and took the initiative to ask for help.

Strangled the danger in the bud in time, waited for the opportunity to avenge the day's revenge, and went to Guo Mansion to take the opportunity, the whole Weizhou knew that although Guo Lao Shangshu was gone, the tea was not cold, Guo Fu's connections were still very wide, and the young lady of Guo Mansion was also a fair lady in her prime, and marrying her could gain fame and fortune, not to mention that she could struggle for 30 years.

This trip to your hometown can be said to kill three birds with one stone, and you can also present your glorious image in front of the old man, the only fly in the ointment is that the old man sent the third uncle Zheng Yuanye to accompany him.

The house was originally the property of the Zheng family, no need to inquire, and did not inform in advance, Zheng Cheng and Zheng Yuanxing's uncle and nephew quietly came to Guiyu Street in Guixiang County, and happened to see Zheng Peng and Lu Shu sending braised meat to their neighbors.

Zheng Cheng looked at the third uncle with a somewhat solemn expression, sighed deliberately, and said in a somewhat heavy tone: "If you hadn't witnessed it with your own eyes, the eldest brother would have fallen to such a point and become a trader, if this matter spreads, the face of our Yuancheng Zheng family would be..."

"For a certain time, he was diligent in reading poetry and books, working hard to return to the Zheng family, but I didn't expect to be willing to fall and do such a useless thing, which really annoyed me." Zheng Yuanxing said with some sadness.

Zheng Peng was very smart when he was a child, and many people couldn't get into the show for a lifetime, but Zheng Peng crossed this hurdle when he was more than ten years old, and the Zheng family in Yuancheng regarded him as the hope of rising, and even there was news that the Zheng family in Xingyang also expressed concern, and it is understandable that scholars occasionally have a lot of wind and snow, which is the reason why the Zheng family is willing to support Zheng Peng and close one eye to what he does, but later it became more and more ridiculous, and he did not make an inch of homework, and became the laughing stock of Yuancheng, and finally made up his mind to drive him out of the house.

I thought that Zheng Peng would be able to be ashamed and brave and study hard, but I didn't expect him to be reduced to being a trader.

Zheng Yuanxing is the third in line, in the era of paying attention to the eldest son and grandson, he is destined to have no chance with the head of the family, coupled with the lack of talent for studying, he was forced to take care of the family business, he suffered a lot of unfair treatment as a businessman, knowing that it is not easy to be a businessman, seeing Zheng Peng, who was once regarded as the hope of the family, doing this kind of thing, he was very angry in his heart.

There is no help.

Zheng Cheng said pretendedly: "Third uncle, don't be angry, it's not worth it if you're angry, the eldest brother was expelled from the house by the eldest father, and he has no support, so he has to live and eat, even if he is a trader, he may be forced by life." ”

If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, Zheng Chengshen understands this truth, and now saying bad things about Zheng Peng will make the third uncle realize that he has bad intentions, so it is better to continue to play the role of "good brother of the Zheng family".

"Alas, I heard that Peng'er set up a word stall, and I thought that he would use his brains and apply what he had learned, and it was also a kind of experience to help others, but he just put the word stall and ran to do a... Hawkers, or hawkers who sell cheap meat, alas, don't fight, don't fight. After Zheng Yuanxing finished speaking, he couldn't help but stomp his feet, looking pity.

I wanted to say "lowly peddler", but when I remembered that I was also in business, I swallowed it back when I said it.

Zheng Cheng said so much, just to attract Zheng Yuanxing to pay attention to the little beautiful maid beside Zheng Peng, seeing that the third uncle only cared about Zheng Peng, with a deep expression of love and hatred, he was even more jealous of Zheng Peng in his heart, only to see his eyes roll, pretending to explain for Zheng Pengcheng and saying:

"Third uncle, there are so many people who read now, how many letters can you read and how many replies can you write in a day? The stall doesn't make much money, and one person is barely enough, but the eldest brother bought a beautiful little maidservant, and the two of them eat and drink a lot, presumably this is the reason why the eldest brother abandoned the stall and ran to become a meat seller. ”

On the surface, it is to explain to Zheng Peng, but in fact, it is to state one thing to Zheng Yuanxing: Zheng Peng's mind is still on women, for the sake of women, he is willing to fall, don't waste your thoughts on him.

When he spoke, Zheng Cheng's tone was a little casual, as if he said it casually, but in fact, he was very unhappy and extremely unbalanced: the little beautiful maid next to Zheng Peng, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and a slender figure, knew that she was a beautiful embryo at a glance, and when she thought of Zheng Peng holding such a beautiful maid every night, she was extremely unhappy with jealousy.

Zheng Peng not only let the fat and ugly little Qiao serve him and rob himself of valuable things, but also has a ten-run debt, the Chunhualou incident, not to mention the physical and mental trauma, in order to repay the debt, he was reluctant to eat a piece of dim sum for a month, tightened his pants to pay off the debt, but Zheng Peng dragged the beautiful little maid to talk and laugh.

Why?

It's not fair, it's too unfair.

At this moment, Zheng Cheng couldn't wait to snatch the little beautiful maid, hold it in his arms, and then step on Zheng Peng's nasty face a thousand times, a thousand times...

Soon, Zheng Cheng's heart was a little balanced: the third uncle listened to his "mention", his face became darker and darker, and the old face trembled with anger, and finally walked towards Zheng Peng with a tense face and an angry face.
