Chapter 57: The First Arrival (2)

Master Zhou looked at the glamorous Cen family from afar, and his eyes were filled with tears with excitement: Sure enough, his dead father and mother were right to sell their sister away at the beginning! Otherwise, he would not have had a chance to make a fortune and turn the Zhou family into a big family today. It's even more impossible, to climb close to the high-flying Hong'an Cen family!

Look at his nephew and his wife and children, all of them look like fairies in the book, give him more long faces! His sister-in-law has been sold away for so many years, and he didn't know until this moment that she actually made a concubine for the third master of the Cen family!

That's the legendary branch of the Cen family that is comparable to a prince! Such people, he never dreamed of having a relationship with them. It was about the time when the green smoke came out of his ancestral grave that under the blue sky and white sun, noble relatives from afar came to the door.

knew that his sister-in-law was a concubine for Master Cen San, and when he received her letter for the first time, he should have prepared a gift and went to Hong'an Mansion for a trip! Instead of hiding from his two younger brothers and his father, he burned the letter and treated it as if he had never received it.

Master Zhou was remorseful: who knew that his weak and honest sister could be a concubine for the master of the Cen family! She talked so much nonsense about homesickness and longing for her relatives in her letters, and she didn't tell herself that she had climbed the high branches. Let him think that she wants him to buy her back for money. He has been estranged from his nephew and the third brother-in-law of the Cen family for so many years!

For so many years, if he had already gotten along with the nobles of the Hong'an Cen family, now the Zhou family would not have succumbed to the west corner of Anping Town, and would have been pressed down by the An family everywhere. Maybe it has already become the largest family in Anping Town, or even Qing'an County.

It's all to blame for his ignorant and forgetful sister who mistook him! Fortunately, Cen Moyuan's nephew is not like his sister-in-law, and he still thinks of his uncle in his heart, and he came from Hong'an Mansion to visit him with his family members from thousands of miles. Oh, and I brought so many good gifts!

At this time, I have to give birth to a nephew. The brain of the old man Zhou began to calculate: after taking the noble family of the Cen family, the Zhou family will broaden which ways and how much more money can be earned in a year.

In the future, will he still be afraid of the group of horsemen in the An family? Sooner or later, the old bastards of the An family who are always stealing business with him will be driven out of Anping Town! Let them kneel before him and beg for mercy, and see if they dare to rob him of his business!

But in the blink of an eye, Master Zhou thought a lot.

He saw that Second Master Cen and the others looked at him with some expectation and apprehension, and quickly straightened his clothes, feeling that his image was more majestic and dignified, so he walked towards them with his head held high and laughed, and said with a smile as he walked: "This is my nephew Mo Yuan and your family." Hehe, I am Zhou Dafu, Yuanniang's eldest brother, Moyuan, your uncle! Ha ha! When I got up this morning, I heard a magpie chirping in the courtyard, and I thought, "There must be something happy coming to the door." Sure enough, you've arrived! ”

Master Zhou smiled and patted Second Master Cen on the shoulder, looked him up and down with satisfaction, and said quickly, "Look at your nephew, how energetic you are!" The aroma of this body is worthy of the century-old scholarly family Cen family! Really give my uncle a long face! ”

After that, he turned around and looked at the Cen family in a whisper, "What are you all doing in the back?" Why don't you come over and meet the guests! Don't lose your manners and make people laugh! ”

He swept his gaze sternly over the people behind him, saw that they were all standing upright, and then stepped forward with a smile on his face, greeting the Cen family while introducing himself, and then bowed his head with satisfaction.

However, there were too many people in the Zhou family, large and small, and they were vying to get close to Second Master Cen one by one, wishing to say a few more words to them. made Cen Erye and Cen Erniang dizzy, cold sweat was dripping on their foreheads and backs, and their complexions became more and more difficult to look at.

However, in an instant, the five members of the Cen family were divided into two piles by the enthusiastic Zhou family: Cen Dalang and Cen Erniang, and Cen Erye, Lin and Cen Sanlang were the other pile.

Cen Erniang and Cen Dalang's first impression of the Zhou family was very displeased. The main thing is that those relatives who have never met are overzealous. And everyone behaved unruly, the sound of their greeting and talking was comparable to the scolding of the shrews in the market, and it was like there were 10 million flies around Cen Erniang's ears at the same time, making people dizzy and earache.

What's even more outrageous is that the aunts and children of Lord Zhou and Lord Wednesday, as well as the concubines of Uncle Zhou, Uncle Tuesday, and Uncle Friday, actually openly came to Cen Erniang and them, and lived in front of their aunts and cousins in a grand manner!

In his words and deeds, he doesn't regard himself as an outsider or a subordinate, and his speech is extremely presumptuous, so that Cen Erniang and Cen Dalang want to beat people with their fists!

On the other side, Second Master Cen and the Lin family, who were holding Cen Sanlang, were surrounded by Master Zhou, Master Tuesday and Master Wednesday and their wives. The two of them didn't notice that Cen Erniang and Cen Dalang, who were rushed by the crowd more than ten steps away from them, were almost on the verge of collapse.

The couple had enough of the white eyes and indifference of their relatives in Xifu, and as soon as they came to the Zhou family, they were treated so warmly by the elders. Although Second Master Cen and the Lin family were a little tired of entertaining these strange elders, this did not prevent them from being in a good mood.

This naΓ―ve couple felt that it was a bit rude for the Zhou family to stop the guests outside the gate and ask questions, but considering that they had lived in the remote countryside for a long time and had not learned etiquette, even if their manners were lacking, the sincerity of welcoming their family was extremely moving!

Contrary to what Cen Erye and his wife thought, Cen Erniang and Cen Dalang went from being speechless at the beginning, to gradually becoming impatient, and then to almost unable to hold back their faces and get angry, the brother and sister were made to collapse step by step by the vulgar and vulgar words spit out by those first-class ignorant and vulgar women in the aunt's concubine's room!

But because they first arrived at Zhou's house, the people around them were the nominal "elders" of the two, and getting angry on the street in public did not match the etiquette they had learned since childhood, so they had to go in and out of their left ear and out of their right ear, filter out those chattering voices, and then hypnotize themselves over and over again: I didn't hear anything, I didn't see anything, be polite, laugh......

When Master Zhou was young, he also traveled south and north, and he saw a lot of what he thought was "big people in the world", and he still had some ability to observe words and colors. When he went through the initial excitement, he saw that the faces of the Cen family were not very good, and the expressions on their faces could only be described as forced smiles, and he saw more and more neighbors and pedestrians on the road hearing the movement, and they all gathered in the alleys outside the Zhou Mansion to watch them, feeling that it was undignified and neglected the distinguished guests.

He asked the younger generation of Uncle Zhou, Uncle Tuesday and others to go back to the house first, and prepare a meeting gift for Cen Erye and a few others. Only his wife Wei, Lord Tuesday and his wife Zhao, and Lord Wednesday and his wife Zhong were left, leading the five members of the Cen family and Yumo and Granny Feng to go inside.

Master Zhou also sincerely invited Lin Siye and his dart masters to go into Zhou's Mansion to rest, wait for a while, finish dinner, and rest for a night before leaving. It is mainly the branch of the Hongwei Dart Bureau in Anping Town, which is at the other end of the town, far away from the Zhou Mansion.

Lin Siye was very enthusiastic, and they were really too tired, and there was nothing urgent in their hands, so they were not in a hurry to leave, so they and the dart masters under him, together with more than a dozen servants of the Zhou family, carried the congratulatory gifts that Cen Er Ye had prepared for everyone in the Zhou family, and drove the horses and carriages of the Hongwei Dart Bureau into the Zhou family's mansion.
