Bastard’s Resurgence
Chapter 148: Great reward from the Zhang family!
The spring is cold in the south of the Yangtze River, and the wicker on the bank of the Slender West Lake is full of greenery. The atmosphere of Yangzhou Boy Test has been very strong, especially in Xinhe County, which has set off a climax.
The Xinhe County Examination Test Center has been prepared, and the location is at Guanshan Academy.
On the day when the county test room was ready, in accordance with the plan of the "Thirteen Measures", Guanshan Academy organized a county test simulation and released the list on the day after the test, which aroused numerous concerns and discussions.
And the most sensational thing is that the future son-in-law of the Zhang family, Tian Zepeng, won the case. The three people referred to by the Zhang family, Zhang Zhen, Zhang Tang, and Tian Zepeng all passed. Lu Zheng was also invited for reference, but he was only ranked in the 130th and failed the list!
As soon as the news came out, the Zhang family was sensational, and Tian Zepeng became the focus of everyone's attention for a while, and both Zhang Zhen and Zhang Tang were praised and rewarded by the old lady, and the whole family was happy.
Lu Zheng went to Luo Guancai to finalize the county test insurer. When he returned to Xijiaoyuan, it was already late.
The weather was very cold, Ying'er waited for him to take a bath, but the butler Cui Da was already waiting in the main hall.
Behind Cui Da was a little girl. Looking at this girl, she was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with an oval face, thin lips, a tall figure, wearing a dark jacket, and a strange face.
Lu Zheng walked into the main hall, Cui saluted in a respectful manner, and said, "Master Lu, the old lady hosted a banquet, and the second master asked the old slave to invite Master Lu to the banquet. The second master said, the boy test is a major event in the Zhang family. Since Lu Gongzi has participated in the boy test, he also shoulders the responsibility of shining the Zhang family lintel. The old lady wants to talk to you too!"
Lu Zheng smiled and said: "The housekeeper is polite, grandmother and second uncle are more polite, then dare to be kind, I just came back from the outside and haven't eaten yet. I didn't expect to have a banquet to eat, then go!"
Lu Zheng's attitude was refreshing, and the girl next to Cui Da sneered and said: "Sure enough, rude and rude, it's no wonder that the county test has failed. Like this class, want to compete with my son? It's really irresponsible!"
Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment and looked at Cui Da. Cui Da was also very embarrassed. He said, "Master Lu, this girl has a name like jade. She was sent by the Tian family to wait with Baoyi girl. Baoyi girl is afraid that you will not Go, I will send her to invite you!"
When Lu Zheng heard that it was the girl of the Tian family, he understood what was going on. Zhang Baoyi and Tian Zepeng had a marriage contract. The Tian family sent a few girls to wait in the Zhang family first. The purpose was to quickly adapt to her husband’s family after Zhang Baoyi married in the future. life.
Generally speaking, this approach is suspected by the man to please the woman. From this it seems that the Tian family is very satisfied with this marriage, and the Zhang family has taken reassurance. Now it is about to praise Tian Zepeng.
Lu Zheng smiled and said, "The housekeeper, there is really no good banquet, no good meeting, it seems that I can't go to this banquet!"
Lu Zheng spoke lightly, but Ying'er's expression on the side was extremely ugly. Lu Zheng had not done well in the exam this time, and she had been depressed. Now that she saw the Zhang Family's enthusiastic invitation to Lu Zheng to a banquet, she felt even more upset.
Why don't you usually see the old lady so enthusiastic? The second master has never inquired about Lu Zheng's studies. At this time, he will end in two days. They think of Lu Zheng's arrival?
"Don't engage in the banquet at home. Every time you do it, you will lose face. After spending money, you will be ridiculed by others. Why do you pick up a rock and smash yourself in the foot?" Ying'er said coldly.
While she was talking, she gave Ruyu a fierce look. Don't look at Ruyu like a little pepper, she also shook her prestige in front of Lu Zheng, and she felt cowardly when she met Ying'er.
Because when she came from the Tian’s family, the family members told Zhang’s girl’s clothes and decorations. Ying'er was the big girl of the Zhang family. First-class maid, she was only a second-class maid when she passed Zhang’s family. See you When she reached Ying'er's momentum, she felt shocked in her heart.
Ying'er was not forgiving, and said coldly: "A second-class little girl, who can't distinguish between superiors and inferiority, dare to come to Zhang's house as an errand? Sure enough, she was trained by a small family, and she couldn't expect to know much Lie!"
Yinger's aura completely suppressed Ruyu, Lu Zheng grinned at Cui Da, and said: "The housekeeper, you always ask!"
Cui Da respectfully salutes, and then leads the way. Since the collapse of Liang Shi in the current Zhang family, the Liang family's momentum has been much worse than before. Although the old man of the Liang family is still there, but without the backbone, it can no longer be a big climate. Up.
As a result, Cui Da's momentum has become more vigorous. Cui Da is still the chief butler of the Zhang family. Cui Da controls more than half of the Zhang family's business.
It is not an exaggeration to say that now Cui Da's authority has reached an unprecedented peak, and his control of resources in the Zhang family even exceeds that of Zhang Chengxi.
However, even so, Cui Da is now very respectful in front of Lu Zheng, polite, cautious, and trembling, walking on thin ice, not putting on the airs of a housekeeper, let alone selling the old.
Lu Zheng followed Cui Da to the old lady's yard. The yard was newly furnished. There were countless cases in the yard, and the red lanterns illuminated the yard like daylight.
Dozens of girls shuttled in the yard, Yingying and Yanyan, very eye-catching, and Tian Zepeng and others were sitting at the head of the old lady, all of them proud and in a good mood.
Because it was a family banquet, the girls did not evade. They were all in the yard. There were Hua Hanyun, aunts in a few rooms, and a person who had an extremely delicate relationship with Lu Zheng. This person was three. Master Zhang Chengbei.
Lu Zheng stepped into the yard and immediately attracted the attention of everyone. He glanced over everyone in front of him, his expression was indifferent, and he walked up to the old lady respectfully and bowed in salute:
"Jiangning Lu Zheng met my grandmother, and my grandmother invited me to a banquet. Lu Zheng was embarrassed..."
Mother Zhang waved her hand gently, and she was in a good mood. She smiled and said, "Brother Zheng, you should follow the example of my Zhang family buddies in your daily life in my Zhang family. Why did you miss the exam this time? "
Lu Zheng said: "Returning to my grandmother, it is true that horses have blundered, and people have blundered. I can only blame my poor academic performance. Although my knowledge of time writing is not solid, I can't read the classics. I got this result. It makes sense."
Mother Zhang nodded gently and said: "It's good if you know your shortcomings. You can't force this to read, and it's even more of a kung fu, opportunistic, and crooked ways will not be elegant after all, okay. If you are faint, you can't be dead, so don't say those pleasant things. Now that you are here, just stay. You can't eat without you, go on!"
Mother Zhang gently shook his hand, as if driving away a fly, Lu Zheng just smiled faintly, he paced down, but found that there was no seat.
Tian Zepeng and a group of people and Zhang Baoyi and a group of people deliberately watched his jokes. They only listened to Zhang Baoyi saying: "I have heard that the final results of this county test are basically based on this test. What will change!
Cousin Tian won the case this time, and it is certain that the day after tomorrow will win the case! "
Zhang Chengxi smiled and said, "This is not what I heard, but what Mr. Nie said personally. Mrs. said that this time the exam at Guanshan Academy is highly authoritative and representative. It can be said to represent the highest level of our county. The quota for passing this exam is basically determined!"
When Zhang Chengxi said this, he smiled reservedly and said: "This time the county trial leader, my Zhang family rewarded a thousand taels of silver. If the prefectural trial leader comes from Xinhe County, my Zhang family rewarded three thousand taels of silver. First of all, if I come from Xinhe County, my Zhang family will reward five thousand taels of silver, Zepeng, you have to work harder and strive for more silver rewards. This is not only a glorious lintel for the Tian family, but also a subsidy for the family."
Zhang Rouyun said: "If Cousin Tian can win the case leader three times in a row and get a small three yuan, he will only get as much as nine thousand taels of silver. Haha, it will be a good story in Yangzhou when I look back."
When Zhang Rouyun said this, countless people followed up and booed, as if Tian Zepeng's middle and small three yuan was no longer a problem. At this moment, a strange voice came from the crowd:
"Tian Zepeng is the son-in-law of the Zhang family, who doesn't know? I don't know if the Zhang family is so generous and generous if someone else wins the case!"
As soon as this voice sounded, everyone looked at the person who was speaking. This person was over thirty years old, had buck-toothed rat whiskers, and his appearance was not good, but he was a student who was going to end this time. His identity was the one who was speculated in Xinhe County some time ago. Zheng Yun, the accountant of Fuyun Building, is full of uproar
He is here as a guest to attend the banquet of the Zhang family. Seeing the Zhang family behaved in such a way, he was upset in his heart and made a mocking statement.
When he said this, it really caused a lot of restlessness. The old lady had a treat today. Zhang Chengxi took the opportunity to invite a lot of people. Among them were students from Xinhe County such as Zheng Yun. Everyone questioned the Zhang family. .
When the old lady heard this, how could she stand it? Immediately she stood up, put the leading cane in her hand on the ground, and said:
"Everyone is listening. This time the rewards given by Zhang Jiali are aimed at all the students in Xinhe County of mine. However, all the students in Xinhe County who are able to win the honor of case leader, regardless of origin, no matter how high or low, are my Zhang family. There are great rewards.
The standard of reward is the same as mentioned earlier, the county trial will reward 1,000 taels of silver, the first county trial will reward 3,000 taels of silver, and the first court trial will reward 5,000 taels of silver! "
The old lady said it to this point. Zheng Yun and the others stopped their restlessness. Hua Hanyun took advantage of this opportunity to say: "Brother Zheng, what are you doing standing there? Is it the reward of the old lady, you now Can't wait to get it?
You'd better sit down, if you really want to get the last time, you have to wait for the day after tomorrow to see the result. At this time, you are too anxious, I am afraid you can't eat hot tofu! "
Everyone was waiting to see Lu Zheng’s jokes. Hua Hanyun gave Lu Zheng a place and quietly relieved Lu Zheng. However, in today’s situation, Lu Zheng is destined not to be released so easily. Over...
