Chapter 564: Encountering Old Acquaintances in a Foreign Country
Yang Zheng nodded and said, "Master Peng is right, Jinling's location is in a beautiful and good area. There are high mountains, deep waters, and plains. Although she suffered from its unique geographical location and extraordinary feng shui environment, she has suffered many times in the past, but she has also repeatedly regained prosperity from the rubble and smoke. And in the Central Plains is occupied by foreign races, when the Han nation is about to suffer the catastrophe of annihilation, usually the Han nation will choose Nanjing to recuperate, determined to go on the Northern Expedition, restore fΓΉ China, in the past years of the Southern Song Dynasty, the ministers are all discussing to Jiankang as the capital to show Kuang to restore the Central Plains, unfortunately Song Gaozong did not intend to go to the Northern Expedition and decided to go to Hangzhou, but forced by public opinion still set Jinling as the capital, which shows the status of Jinling, after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Nanjing as the national capital, built the capital here for decades, so that the ancient capital of the six dynasties is a collection of clouds from all directions, a time businessmen gathered, Yanran is the largest city in the world, and this is a small city that can be compared, Master Peng can see the location of Nanjing's businessmen with the eyes of a businessman, it is indeed rare? β
The eldest lady sighed lightly and said, "It's a pity that my father died of illness in the second year just after buying a piece of shop, and my Peng family has been going downhill, if it weren't for my mother's hard support, I'm afraid it would have been swallowed by the Yang family!" The eldest lady seemed to remember the past, and her eyes turned slightly red.
"Hehe, it was in those years that you and your wife failed to sell the shops here, this persistence is really admirable?" Yang Zheng said sincerely.
A flush rose on the eldest lady's face, and she said, "Actually, I didn't do anything, it's all the credit of my mother?" β
"The eldest lady is humble, although I don't know how the eldest lady lived a few years ago, but the people in the house, that is, the lady has great trust in you, which shows that you have paid a lot for the Peng family, and you should be on the Peng family's honor list?"
The eldest lady glanced at him and said, "My Peng family can have today, it's all your credit?" β
"The eldest lady has won the award, I just made a little effort, it's nothing, the Peng family can have today, it is the credit of Mrs. and you, as well as the Peng family's inseparable family and maid. Compared to your flickering fire, I can only be regarded as a spark? Yang Zheng said with a rare modesty.
Seeing that he was serious, the eldest lady nodded and said, "No matter what, our Peng family can have today, do you still want to thank you?" β
Yang Zheng suddenly smiled evilly, stared at the eldest lady and smiled evilly, and said, "How is the eldest lady going to thank me, can you talk to me?" β
The eldest lady looked a little obscene at him, glared at him fiercely, and said with a red face: "Want to be beautiful?" β
Yang Zheng didn't care, he said to himself, the atmosphere between the two was a little weird, but now that they have spoken and confided in each other, they are much better.
Duan Yu in front saw that the two of them were happy for a while, and looked at each other unpleasantly for a while, so he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly: "It's really a pair of enemies?" β
Everyone walked along the street without knowing how to walk about half a pillar of incense, and suddenly heard someone in front of them: "Hua'an, Hua'an, we have arrived?" Peng's shop? β
Hearing the voice, everyone looked over, only to see in the bustling street ahead, a three-story small building stands and the east side of the street, the blue brick and small tile shape is solemn, the craftsmanship is exquisite, the plaque on the roof of the building "Pengjia shop" four golden characters are shining in the sun, people dare not look directly.
"My day, in the prosperous place of the capital, there is a three-story small building, this is incredible, right?" Everyone had the same expressions as Yang Zheng, surprised and happy.
The eldest lady also showed a look of astonishment, obviously she didn't expect that the shop left by her father was actually a three-story building, and it was on the bustling street, which was definitely a good place in Nanjing.
"Is this the eldest lady?" Duan Yu asked in disbelief.
The eldest lady took out the title deed left by Master Peng from her arms, looked at it carefully, and said, "Is it right here?" β
"Shall we go in then?" Duan Yu said happily, the family on the side, everyone had already shown a happy look.
The eldest lady also had a happy face and nodded at everyone.
Duan Yu couldn't wait for a long time, so he rushed over in the carriage, but fortunately, although there were many people on the street, they also politely got out of the way, and the journey of a few miles was a short time.
Duan Yu parked the carriage, couldn't wait to jump off the carriage and walked towards the door of the small building, stretched out his hand and knocked on it, with a knock on the door, an old man walked out of the building, opened the heavy wooden door, looked at Duan Yu with an excited face in some panic, and said, "Who is the son looking for?" β
Before Duan Yu could answer, there was another sound of footsteps in the building, followed by a woman's voice: "Who is the old man?" β
Before the words fell, a woman in a gray cloth robe walked out, the woman was about fifty years old, although she was very well maintained, but the years still left marks on her forehead and the corners of her eyes, the woman glanced at Duan Yu with a pair of big eyes, and asked with a smile: "This little brother, are you looking for someone?" The tone is cordial, but a bit shrewd and capable.
Duan Yu nodded, shook his head again, and said, "I'm not here to find someone, we're looking for a shop?" β
The woman stared at Duan Yu twice, then suddenly chuckled and said, "This little brother, seeing that you have clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, how can you talk nonsense?" Is it easy to find a shop? β
Duan Yu was about to speak, but suddenly heard the eldest lady say, "Are you Aunt Liu?" β
The woman was talking to Duan Yu, and after hearing the eldest lady's words, she slowly turned her head, squinted her big eyes and looked the eldest lady up and down, and asked hesitantly: "You, are you-?" β
The eldest lady stepped forward and said, "Aunt Liu, you don't know me anymore, I'm Shuang'er, did you hug me when you were a child?" β
"Twins?" The woman muttered, glanced at the old man, and looked at the eldest lady again, and after a while the woman was surprised: "You, are you the eldest lady?" β
The eldest lady nodded and said, "Aunt Liu, Uncle Zhang, you and I came to Nanjing from Hangzhou?" β
The woman glanced at it a few times, walked out of the small building, and said with red eyes: "Is it really you, have you grown so big?" β
"yes, you're so pretty?" The old man who followed touched the tears in his eyes and whimpered.
"Miss, you're here, we've been waiting for you so hard?" The woman took the eldest lady's little hand and patted it gently, her eyes were red, and she was almost in tears.
The old man beside him was already in tears, wiping his eyes with his sleeves from time to time.
The eldest lady also had red circles in her eyes, and she whimpered: "Aunt Liu, Uncle Zhang, I haven't seen you for so many years, are you okay?" β
The woman's name is Liu Yue'e, the old man's name is Zhang Bo, it was a subordinate of the Peng family back then, and he followed the old man Peng all the year round, and then the old man Peng saw that the Peng family's business had gained a firm foothold in Hangzhou, and he intended to develop in Nanjing, so he came to Nanjing, and fell in love with this small building, so he bought it, let Liu Yue'e and Zhang Bo take care of it, and in the future, he would lead the Peng family's business over, who knew that the old man Peng died of illness not long after returning to Hangzhou, and when he left, he only told his wife that there was still a shop in Nanjing, Mrs. Peng only remembered that her husband left a shop in Nanjing, as for how big it was, it was not clear where it was, and later for the livelihood of the Peng family, Mrs. Peng ran around, but she also forgot about this matter, this forgetting is more than ten years, if it wasn't for the eldest lady who talked about wanting to bring the Peng family's business to Nanjing a few days ago, Mrs. Peng couldn't remember that the Peng family still had such a shop in Nanjing.
Liu Yue'e wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said with a smile: "Miss, I can be regarded as waiting for you to come, all these years, we have been thinking day and night, thinking that one day the Peng family will come, and God is merciful, and today I finally waited for you to come?" β
"Aunt Liu, Uncle Zhang, have you worked hard all these years?" The eldest lady said with red eyes.
Liu Yue'e said: "What nonsense are stupid children talking about, we are from the Peng family, the old man asked us to guard this small building, and we haven't done anything over the years, just looking at this small building, you and your wife are really hard?" β
"Yes, after the old man passed away, we didn't know, and then there were people from Hangzhou who came to do business, and we searched and inquired, and then we learned some news, but we didn't dare to leave, so-?" Zhang Bo spoke, his eyes showing pain.
"Uncle Zhang, I don't blame you, I think Daddy thinks the same thing in the Heavenly Spirit?" The eldest lady walked up to Zhang Bo and said softly with relief.
Zhang Bo nodded with a whimper, if it weren't for the crowd, I was afraid that he would have already cried.
The atmosphere on the field was a little depressing for a while.
It took a while to hear Liu Yue'e say: "Look at you, the eldest lady is finally here, what are you doing with these sad words, why don't you lead the eldest lady in to rest!" β
"Yes!" Zhang Bo wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, hurriedly got out of the way, and let the eldest lady in.
The eldest lady pulled Liu Yue'e while talking, and entered the small building, behind Duan Yu, the other family members hurriedly followed, Yang Zheng was about to go in, but saw Gao Hang walk forward, gently pulled his sleeve, and said, "Brother Yang, I won't go in with you?" β
"Brother Gao, you-?" Yang Zheng got along well with Gao Hang along the way, and he can be regarded as a person who has shared hardships, and his feelings are not comparable to ordinary people.
"I was ordered to escort you all the way to Nanjing, and now that you have arrived safely, it is time for me to go back to resume my life?" Gao Hang hugged his fists.
Although Yang Zheng was a little reluctant in his heart, he also knew that he was a member of the public family, and many times he couldn't help himself, so he had to raise his hand and hug his fists and said, "Go all the way?" β
Gao Hang nodded, bowed his hand again, and turned to leave.
Yang Zheng saw his tall horse disappear into the crowd before he sighed lightly and walked into the small building.
