Chapter 42 Entrustment
There was no longer any suspense about the selection of servants, and the wife finally decided to be in charge of the servants and Tang Zheng.
After the decision is made, some people rejoice and some people are disappointed.
Everyone gathered around to say hello to Tang Zheng and Shi Meng, and even Steward Qin was congratulated by the others.
The Wu family is a double master, and Qin stewards have been praised for their wisdom and knowledge.
Those who reacted smartly have secretly gone out of the house to report to the Wu family, and the second boss of the Wu family is overjoyed, and the reward is inevitably indispensable.
This day has become a day for all the subordinates to cheer and celebrate, just like the imperial examination in ancient times, the draft in the present world, and the servant school is also a common dream in the hearts of mortals.
Tang Zheng and Shi Meng dealt with it in the crowd, they had never been treated like this in their lives, and once they stepped into the dragon gate, they first passed the addiction of stardom.
Unlike those who succeed, losers are ignored.
When Tang Zheng responded to the circle of congratulations, he found that Shi Mo had retired from the hall and disappeared without a trace.
No one knows when he left.
He was wondering, only to hear Zheng Shufeng behind him already say: "Tang Zheng, you come here." ”
At this time, the master and the Lu Shi had already left, and only Zheng Shufeng was left in the hall.
Tang Zheng responded to the call, and Zheng Shufeng pointed to the position next to him: "Sit down." ”
"The wife is here, and the little ones dare not sit down. ”
"You're welcome. Zheng Shufeng smiled: "This is what you deserve." ”
After becoming a servant, Tang Zheng is no longer a subordinate, or an ordinary subordinate. According to the habits of the major families, even the main family will be much more polite to these future immortal masters.
Tang Zheng knew this, so after thanking him, he sat in the first place under Zheng Shufeng.
Zheng Shufeng took a closer look at Tang Zheng, saw that he looked upright, and he was not carried away because he got the position of servant, he was deeply satisfied, nodded and said: "You have been in Weifu for almost three years, and in the past three years, I have also watched you do things, and I know you quite well. Do you know why I chose you to enter the government back then?"
"Madame, is it because of the three money?" Tang Zheng didn't know why Zheng Shufeng wanted to ask this, and replied carefully.
Zheng Shufeng smiled and shook his head: "Your filial piety to the second elder of the Wu family that day is indeed the most important reason why I chose you, but there is another important reason, that is, your origin." ”
Origin?
Tang Zheng was slightly surprised, isn't his life experience his biggest problem?
Zheng Shufeng has already said: "Being able to walk from Yeguyuan to Canglong Mansion alone, you must have suffered a lot during that time, right?"
Hearing this, Tang Zheng couldn't help but see the shadow of Xumuyang in front of his eyes, thinking of his experience of trekking through mountains and rivers to Canglong Mansion during that time, he couldn't help but answer: "That time was the darkest years in my life. Walking alone in the lonely barren mountains and wilderness, he has no money on him, and he doesn't know where the road ahead is...... Sometimes I wonder how I walked that long road to this Canglong Mansion. ”
To go all the way under the pursuit of the Heavenly God Palace, during that time, Tang Zheng did suffer a lot, endured hunger and hunger, not to mention the hardships to move forward, and he had to beware of possible dangers anytime and anywhere.
A twelve-year-old child being able to come to Canglong Mansion alive under such conditions is a miracle in itself.
Tang Zheng had never said this, and no one realized this, but Zheng Shufeng found something unusual in it, which made Tang Zheng immediately feel moved to meet his bosom friend.
"It's really not easy...... Zheng Shufeng also nodded and sighed: "If Chong'er can have the toughness and perseverance of you, he won't only open four doors in the future, and your jade gate will turn five times, not because of your amazing talent, but because of the reward you have given you from your past experience." Such an experience, even among the subordinates of the Wei Mansion, I am afraid that there are not a few of them. ”
Hearing this, Tang Zheng suddenly realized in his heart that he finally understood why Zheng Shufeng valued him so much.
Sure enough, Zheng Shufeng said: "Actually, I also know that it is good for him to let Chong'er suffer some hardships." But after all, I am a woman, a mother, and how many mothers can really be ruthless enough to make their children suffer and suffer, especially the kind of tiredness that may cost half their lives? Do you know how distressed I am when I open the door today and see him crying. ”
"The little one understands, and the pity of the parents of the world. ”
"Pity the parents of the world ......" Zheng Shufeng chewed on these words, and finally a smile appeared on his face: "Well said." Chong'er has been pampered since she was a child and has never suffered hardship. It's just that Wanquan City is thousands of miles away from Canglong Mansion, and when he enters school, I can't protect him even if I want to. My mother is worried, if I don't find someone who can really rely on me, will I still expect those wastes to fail? So the first thing I did was to ask you to take care of my good family Chong'er, although Shi Meng is also a diligent child, but compared to you, it is still much worse. ”
Although the origin of Tang Zheng is a little unknown, he was able to come to Canglong Mansion from Anyang alone, and his ability to live independently and deal with things also made Zheng Shufeng valued.
For Zheng Shufeng, the fact that the servant learns to return to the master's family has never been what she values the most.
The only thing she values most is her son!
As long as the child is good, then anything is fine.
In this regard, among the two major meanings of the existence of servant learning, the significance of "accompanying service" is far greater than "investing in the future" in Zheng Shufeng's eyes.
In fact, the original purpose of the big family's selection of servants was to take care of their children, and as for "expecting returns", it was only added later.
As Tang Zheng said, in the process of chasing goals, people often lose their original purpose due to the twists and turns of the road.
But Zheng Shufeng didn't!
She knew exactly what she wanted.
Because of this, no matter how good Shi Mo's heart is good, he doesn't have the ability to take care of the little young master Wei Tianchong, Zheng Shufeng will not choose him, in Zheng Shufeng's eyes, "being able to take care of the little master" is her first criterion for selecting people!
So even if Tang Zheng didn't have the five turns of Yumen, with his ability to survive and deal with things, Zheng Shufeng would still choose him, but in this regard, even Tang Zheng didn't expect it.
Hearing Zheng Shufeng say this at this moment, Tang Zheng came to his senses.
Although he thought of Zheng Shufeng's attention to this matter, he didn't realize that her attention to this matter far exceeded all other measurements.
Finding a problem but not paying attention to it is equivalent to not finding a problem, Tang Zao felt that he had made a big mistake - if he had realized this problem earlier, then when he made a wish, he could have set the promised return smaller.
So he has actually paid for this mistake.
It's not to blame him, these days, he is facing underage half-grown children.
Although the weakness of his opponent allowed him to win easily, he inevitably ignored it because he couldn't stimulate Tang Zheng's desire to fight.
Therefore, the real excitement will always appear when you meet an opponent with weight.
In the past three years, he has been pulled a little low by his incompetent opponent, and the only bright spot is probably that the appearance of Ji Ziqian has lifted Tang Zheng's spirits.
Fortunately, there are many talents in Xiyue Academy, and the competition on the avenue is cruel and boundless, and I believe that there should be many wonderful things waiting for me in the future.
"Please rest assured, Madame, Tang Zheng will definitely take care of the little young master. Tang Zheng hurriedly responded.
Zheng Shufeng said again: "In addition, Chong'er's age is still younger after all, he was ignorant at the beginning, and he whipped you." At that time, I was here, and I didn't worry about you being wronged and causing any trouble, and I, Zheng Shufeng, could bear it. But after leaving this home and going to the feet of the Son of Heaven, the immortal family is important, if something happens again, even I may not be able to protect him. If it is too big, it is possible to destroy the family and destroy the clan. So this second thing is to ask you to help me keep an eye on Chong'er, so that he doesn't cause any trouble that shouldn't be caused. ”
She said this solemnly, and Tang Zheng knew that it was not a lie.
Those who can enter the Moon Washing Academy are either servant students with backgrounds, nobles, geniuses, or simply immortals, anyway, any one is not easy to mess with.
Wei Tianchong can be a tyrant in the Wei family, but when he goes there, he has to learn to bow his head.
However, the young man's temperament is difficult to control, and God knows when something will happen to Lu Dao, so at this moment, Zheng Shufeng said that he actually gave Tang Zheng a salute.
This salute fell in the eyes of everyone, startling everyone, and Tang Zheng jumped up to dodge: "Mrs. is too polite, and the little one doesn't dare to take it." ”
"As long as you can complete the two things I explained, what is a mere courtesy?" Zheng Shufeng replied with a smile.
Take care of her son and don't allow him to get into trouble, these are Zheng Shufeng's two requirements, and they are also the requirements she values the most, as long as she can do this, all the investment in Tang Zheng will be worth it, as for what Tang Zheng promised, it is just interest, with or without, at least she Zheng Shufeng doesn't care.
Regarding Zheng Shufeng's entrustment, Tang Zai smiled bitterly: "Madam, I can agree to the first thing and do my duty." But the little master's behavior, there are some things that I can't stop after all. ”
"I know. Zheng Shufeng nodded: "After all, you are a subordinate, what you say, he may not listen, Yinglongshan is proof." At that time, you can kill a horse to stop it, but there are many things in the future, but there may not be a horse to kill you. Anyway, since I chose to trust you, I naturally have to trust you to the end...... Rouge, go and bring the family law. ”
Rouge had hurried to the front of the hall, took a whip and handed it to his wife.
This whip is not the rattan whip that Wei Tianchong used to fight the Tang Dynasty at the beginning, but a special torture instrument made of good green bamboo.
At the same time, it is also a tool for the Wei family to implement the family rules and punishments, representing the majesty of the head of the Wei family, and no child of the Wei family can resist.
Zheng Shufeng grabbed the bamboo whip and handed it to Tang Zao: "When I go to the academy, I will officially hand it over to you, if Chong'er dares to do anything rebellious, you will use this family method to whip him! I believe you know when you should use it and when you shouldn't!"
Tang Zheng trembled.
This is Shang Fang's sword!
With this thing in hand, I don't have to worry about Wei Tianchong's stubbornness and doing some kind of bastard and foolish things.
Looking at the bamboo whip, Tang Zheng finally bowed to the end and said loudly: "Mrs. trusts the little one, and the little one is grateful." Please rest assured, Mrs. Tang Zheng will live up to his wife's expectations and take care of the little master!"
Looking at the small green bamboo whip, the other subordinates were also shocked, and Shi Meng sighed secretly, it turned out that in the eyes of his wife, he was not as important as Tang Zheng after all.
If Ji Ziqian hadn't been squeezed away at the beginning, then now he was afraid that he would be the one who lost the election, and thinking of this, he couldn't stop sweating in his heart.
However, there is one thing he already understands, that is, in the future master and servant trio, his status will definitely not be as good as Tang Zheng.
This is ...... It's really unwilling!
At the same time as the crowd was amazed, a small servant outside suddenly ran in and shouted in a panic: "Mrs., Mrs., something is wrong." ”
"What's all the fuss?" Zheng Shufeng frowned.
"Waiter...... Shimo he's crazy, he's ...... He ......"
"What's wrong with him?" Zheng Shufeng asked impatiently.
"He caught the little master!"
