Zhang Chengxi and Lu Zheng were talking in the cherry blossom forest. Cui Da was always guarding outside. His expression was very nervous. The position he stood was the only entrance and exit to this forest. In his heart, this communication between Lu Zheng and Zhang Chengxi was something that no one could disturb.

He could not predict the end of this conversation, however, just as Cui Da was worried about gains and losses, Zhang Chengxi and Lu Zheng had already come out.

"Butler, what did you do? The old lady asked you to prepare a silver reward of 1,000 taels of silver, are you ready?" Zhang Chengxi said to the face when he saw Cui Da.

Cui Da was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Zhang Chengxi meant, he said, "That, second master, this..."

"Okay, okay, Brother Zheng, I'll go to get you the money in person! You are the protagonist and the only protagonist at the cherry blossom banquet tonight! There are still a few kids in our family who are on the list, but they are different from you. You are a sure-fire scholar, and they still have a long way to go.

Tonight is an opportunity. If they have their tails raised, don’t forget to knock on them. Hey, don’t give them a little color, they will think you are easy to bully!" Zhang Chengxi said.

He patted Lu Zheng's shoulder very intimately and said, "Okay, the first scholar came from our family, our family has a unique face!"

After Zhang Chengxi finished speaking, he rushed to the old lady's yard with a staggering stagger, but Cui Da staggered and almost fell down.

Even though he was extremely cunning, he could not hide his inner shock. He opened his eyes wide and looked at Zhang Chengxi, then looked at Lu Zheng again. He doubted whether Lu Zheng had given Zhang Chengxi a lust.

What's going on? In just a while, Zhang Chengxi's attitude turned 180 degrees. How did Lu Zheng do it?

Zhang Chengxi left, Cui Dadao: "Brother Zheng, what did you talk to the second master? The second master is so happy?"

Lu Zheng said lightly: "After all, it's a family, there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome. The bones are broken and the tendons are connected. Wouldn't the butler say that too?"

When Cui Dayi heard Lu Zheng's words, he rolled his eyes when he was choked. What a bullshit family, what a fool? If Lu Zheng was a family with the Zhang family, would the old lady want him to die?

But what Lu Zheng said was exactly what Cui Da said before. This nonsense was said by Cui Da himself. Lu Zheng now used the same words to fight back. Even if Cui Da was full of unhappiness, he could only hide it in his heart and could not express it.

...

At night, the cherry blossom feast is brightly lit in the Guanjing Mountain.

The old lady was dark and the furnishings in the yard had been moved away long ago. The old lady lay alone in the warm room, and all the maids and mothers hid far away.

Everyone knows that the old lady is in a bad mood. Who dares to touch her bad head at this time? The lights are lit. Second grandmother Hua Hanjun comes over, Xixiang hurried over, Hua Hanjun lowers her voice:

"How is it? Is the old lady sleeping?"

Xixiang lowered his voice and said, "No, I stayed alone in the quiet room for two hours, and after coming out, I didn't eat anything, so I lay in the warm room, saying that I was going to sleep, my eyes were open. I said that I wasn't sleeping, and I didn't move, and no one dared to disturb me."

Hua Hanjun said: "Well, let the chicken soup be boiled in the kitchen and the lotus seed soup is also boiled for later use. The old lady had a knot today. Tian Zepeng failed to make a contribution. The ancestor felt uncomfortable!"

Xixiang said: "I think Brother Zheng is so successful. The old lady feels uncomfortable, right?"

"Damn girl, be careful of your mouth!" Hua Hanjun made a gesture of opening his mouth. Xixiang shrank his neck and stuck out his tongue. Hua Hanjun smiled and said, "Remember, you can't say such words in the future. Let the old lady listen. You can't take it and leave."

The two of them hid in the side hall and talked. Suddenly, a noise came from the yard. Hua Hanjun frowned, and Xixiang poked her head out and shouted:

"What's the matter outside? I wonder if the old lady has rested?"

The old lady in charge ran over and said, "Miss, it's the second master who has come here. She has carried away the table of silver in the yard. Why don't you tell the old lady?"

"Ah? This..." Xixiang exclaimed and turned her eyes to Hua Hanjun. Hua Hanjun asked in confusion: "What's the money?"

"What other silver can it be? That thousand taels of silver reward was originally prepared for Tian Zepeng, but later... you also know... all other things were collected, but no one dared to touch the silver. I'm going to see you what to do? The second master has taken it now, why don't you tell the old lady?"

Hua Hanjun suddenly realized and said, "I understand, there is no need for this matter, the second master is also in front of him!"

"Two girls, why are you chewing on the tongue?" Suddenly, a voice sounded, Hua Hanjun and Xixiang were shocked at the same time. They turned around and saw that the old lady was standing behind them at some point.

The two of them exclaimed in surprise, and Hua Hanjun hurriedly greeted him and said, "Old ancestor, oh, you finally got up. Hurry, hurry up, prepare soup for the ancestor. Ancestor, you should sit here, the stove has added fire, here is the main hall!"

The ancestor was helped to sit down in the main hall, and the light was lit. She said, "Who is noisy in the yard outside?"

"It was the second master who came just now!" Xi Xiang said.

While Xixiang was talking, Zhang Chengxi came from the yard. It turned out that he heard that the old lady had gotten up, so he came over to take a look.

"Mother, you look pretty good. My child is afraid that you will be unable to think and get sick again. That is really worrying!" Zhang Chengxi said, and he pondered for a moment:

"Mother, the child has figured it out. Brother Zheng is a lucky person and a heavenly star. He should be his own. No matter how he is, we can't stop him.

Actually, if you think about it carefully, our family finally got the benefits of this county examination. The guys are all on the list. This is a happy event!

Brother Zheng got the case, and the case was still from our Zhang family's lintel. This is also a matter of shining our family's lintel. Mother, do you think this is not the case?"

While talking, Zhang Chengxi observed Zhang's mother's expression. Seeing that Zhang's mother was not angry, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Although Tian Zepeng is a seedling, he is too young after all, and the difference is not a little bit compared to Zheng Ge'er. This time he did not get the case, and it was a blessing for Sai Weng to lose his position. After this setback, it was also a warning and encouragement for him, and it was beneficial to him and even unnecessary harm to the future!"

Zhang's mother frowned slowly, looked at Zhang Chengxi with a squint eyes and said, "Chengxi, why did you figure it out so quickly? Hey, I'm afraid you can't figure it out, I'm worried that you can't help but ruin today's cherry blossom feast. Now it seems that I'm over-concerned!"

Zhang's mother was indeed worried that Zhang Chengxi was the one who knew her son best. Zhang Chengxi's temperament was not good at forbearance, and this time he was hit too much. If he lost control of his emotions and had done so much before, it would be too much of a loss.

Now that Zhang's mother saw that Zhang Chengxi had figured it out, she put down the stone in her heart, and asked again: "Chengxi, are you here to see me? Or are there anything else? Just go and go and do it without anything else. You must do the evening banquet, make the fun and make it successful."

Zhang Chengxi rubbed his hands and said, "Mother, I came here to get the silver reward! I have someone carry the 1,000 taels of white silver to the cherry blossom forest. Tonight's cherry blossom banquet Zheng Ge'er is the head of the case. I will send this reward in public to demonstrate the courage of my Zhang family. At the same time, it also inspires and encourages other students to try to make everyone take him as an example, perform exceptionally in the next two exams, and bring glory to my Xinhe County!"

Zhang's mother's eyes suddenly opened wide, and her expression instantly froze on her face. She raised her hand, pointed her finger at Zhang Chengxi and put it down again, and then raised her hand. She raised her hand several times, but didn't say a word.

Hua Hanjun saw the clues on the side, and she was shocked by Zhang Chengxi's attitude. What's going on? In the afternoon, she even made harsh words, slapped the table, stared at her eyes, threatening that the matter was not over, and she would never give up on her posture and she must do it to the end.

How old has it been now? Why has it changed? He called Brother Zheng so affectionate. Do you really think he is his uncle?

"Old ancestor...you..." Hua Hanjun came to Zhang's mother.

"I...I...I...I have a stomachache..." Zhang's mother held it in for a long time, and finally said something. She sighed and said, "This is one thousand taels of silver, one thousand taels of white silver. These silver is enough for ordinary people to live for a lifetime. Even if my Yangzhou Zhang family is known as wealthy, one thousand taels is not a small amount. The silver I spend in Qingxuguan a year is only a few hundred taels! Chengxi, do you know?"

Zhang Chengxi nodded and said, "Mother, the child knows! However, the child thinks that this thousand taels of silver is worth spending. First, Zheng Ge'er deserves the first place to win the case. He is a well-known talent in Yangzhou. This is the first time he ends up, so he deserves the reward!

Second, my Zhang family has a promise first, and everyone in Xinhe County knows that today's cherry blossom banquet fulfills this promise, let the students of Xinhe know the courage of my Zhang family, and encourage everyone to study hard and take Zheng Ge'er as an example.

Third, Tian Zepeng and others, including Haoran, Tang Er and Zhener, are a little squinting. Today, the daytime is an example for you. Tian Zepeng thought that his case was decided and was proud and complacent. Let him see who is the real case, teach him a lesson, and let him remember it deeply. The child believes that he will remember this in the future, which will be good for his growth!"

Zhang Chengxi talked freely and even said three reasons at once. Zhang's mother stopped in her ears and felt uncomfortable. Which side of Zhang Chengxi was from? Why was he talking for the little bastard in the Lu family everywhere?

At that time, the girls brought the soup to the old lady. When Hua Hanjun saw the old lady's appearance, she thought of it and scolded:
Chapter completed!
