Chapter Seventy-Nine
Village Chief Xu took this incident as a rare event, not only chose a good day to feast the villagers, but even opened the ancestral hall to lead the villagers to worship the ancestors of Xujia Village, thanking them for their protection of Xujia Village.
In fact, Cheng Zhi didn't like to be paid so much attention, but Cheng An was so excited that he circled around Cheng Zhi all day long, "Big brother, I don't think the groom officials in our village have this kind of treatment like you, and now you are one of the best people in our Xujia Village!" ”
Cheng Zhi was blushing for a while when Cheng An said, if he was like this, even if he was promising, what about Su Qiyun? Didn't you see such an event, didn't Su Qiyun bother to participate?
But Cheng'an doesn't care about those, who doesn't envy his eldest brother in Xujiacun now, he Xu Cheng'an is now a person who can walk sideways in the entire Xujia Village, he took the little girl to turn left and right, and listened to the praise of others for his eldest brother, and the smile on the corner of his mouth never went down.
Xiao Nannan watched with joy, it is rare to see Xujia Village so lively, when her father took her to various places to inspect the people's conditions, she had also seen such a grand occasion in some villages, but now one of the protagonists of this matter is her Chengzhi brother, but he also has a different mood.
Cheng Zhi was a little bored in the crowd, he didn't worry about seeing Cheng An pull Xiao Nan away from him, but walked out of the crowd and found a remote place to take a breath, and after a while, the village chief should still be looking for him, before the village chief also said that he would take him to worship the ancestors, but Cheng Zhi couldn't help but worry about his future, since he knew his ranking, he has always thought about his future, for him such a ranking is too mediocre, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get ahead one day.
The sound of horses' hooves gradually came in the distance, but Chengzhi was immersed in his thoughts and didn't hear it, and it wasn't until the man on the horse came up to him that he noticed this stranger who suddenly broke into Xujia Village.
Before Cheng Zhi could ask anything, the person on the horse had already walked first and asked, "May I ask this little brother, how should Su Ren Xing go?" ”
Cheng Zhi reacted for a moment before recalling that Su Fuzi seemed to be called Su Renxing, he carefully looked at the person in front of him, although he was dressed in brocade clothes, he was also dusty, and he didn't look like a person from Linchuan.
Thinking that the Su family was also unable to sleep because of Su Meng's affairs during this time, Chengzhi hesitated for a while, not knowing what the people in front of him were looking for the Su family for, and what should he do if he brought trouble to the Su family because of this?
Probably sensing Cheng Zhi's hesitation, the person on the horse simply got off the horse and said to Cheng Zhi with a smile, "In Xia Tan Yan, Su Renxing is actually in Xia...... Uncle, so can the little brother give me directions, my aunt, who I haven't seen for a long time, can't wait to reunite with my aunt all the way. ”
Cheng Zhi suddenly thought that Su Fuzi's family was at a loss to face the Di family, so he sent news to the capital, and this was the one who came to help the Su family solve their troubles.
After thinking about it, Cheng Zhi looked at the lively crowd not far away, Su Fuzi was among those people, although Su Qiyun did not come today, but Su Fuzi still gave face to take a look at his two students.
He turned his head to look at Tan Yan and said, "Master's house is not far away, but Master's house is there now, I'll take you over first!" ”
Tan Yan followed Xu Chengzhi's gaze and looked at the lively crowd in the distance and frowned and asked, "Is my aunt also there?" ”
Cheng Zhi noticed that Tan Yan didn't seem to want to go over there, and he just called Su Fuzi by his name, and he also faintly revealed his dislike for Su Fuzi, Cheng Zhi didn't know why, but after all, it was someone else's family matter, and Cheng Zhi didn't want to ask anything, but Cheng Zhi couldn't help but think about whether such a person who didn't like Su really wanted to help the Su family this time?
Although Cheng Zhi was puzzled, he still brought Tan Yan to Su Fuzi's house.
Mrs. Su heard the sound of talking outside the door and the sound of horses' hooves and walked out with a prediction in her heart, and when she saw the person who came, Mrs. Su couldn't help but red-eyed, she just sent a letter to her mother's family to ask her mother's idea, but she didn't expect her mother's family to send her a relative.
"Auntie!"
Tan Yan was also a little excited when she saw Mrs. Su, and she couldn't bother to talk to Cheng Zhi anymore and ran to Mrs. Su, and her words were faintly choked.
Cheng Zhi looked at it and put his mind at ease, although Tan Yan's attitude towards Su Fuzi may not be very friendly, but it is absolutely impossible for him to ignore the affairs of the Su family, as for Tan Yan's ......
Chengzhi guessed that it might be that the Tan family felt that Mrs. Su had been wronged by following Su Fuzi to this poor and remote place, so their attitude towards Su Fuzi was not good.
Seeing their relatives reunited, Cheng Zhi didn't want to stay here to disturb their family, so he wanted to leave quietly first, but he didn't expect that as soon as his footsteps moved, Tan Yan looked back, looked at Cheng Zhi and said to Mrs. Su, "Auntie, thanks to this little brother who led the way for me, I was able to meet my aunt earlier!" ”
After Mrs. Su thanked Cheng Zhi, she wanted to take Cheng Zhi into the house for a cup of tea, but Cheng Zhi thought that the village chief might still need something, so he refused, and he was really embarrassed to stay here and disturb their family.
Mrs. Su looked at the back of Cheng Zhi leaving and said to Tan Yan, "This is the student brought by your uncle, and he is also a talent in this year's middle school!" ”
Tan Yan nodded slightly, he guessed that his aunt should have wanted him to mention something to this person named Xu Chengzhi, but he couldn't think of anything to pay attention to just a show.
When he was seven years old, he hid from his family to participate in the children's examination to become a Xiucai, and his cousin Su Qiyun was already a Xiucai two or three years ago, this Xu Chengzhi looked a few years younger than him, so he was too stupid! Just because this person is my uncle's student, my aunt can't introduce him to everyone, right?
As if she knew what Tan Yan was thinking, Mrs. Su, who walked into the house, poured a glass of water for Tan Yan, and sighed helplessly and said, "You don't know the situation in Xujia Village, and you don't know how difficult it is for the children here to study. ”
Tan Yan picked up the teacup and took two sips but couldn't help frowning, even if this kind of tea is given to the people in the family, no one may drink it, but Tan Yan didn't say anything, and still drank two sips before putting down the teacup and listening carefully to Mrs. Su.
"I heard that the master of this Xu family village was Cheng Zhi's grandfather, but the old man was not in good health, and he came here all the way to this place after all, and the old man was gone before the child was born, and there was no new master in the village in the next few years, until two years ago, your uncle's old friend came here by chance to be a master, but even so, the conditions of Cheng Zhi's family have not allowed him to go to school, and it is thanks to the help of the village that the Xu family has slowly survived, don't look down on Cheng Zhi's child, When you are seven years old, you can get a middle show, but Chengzhi's child never entered the school when he was seven years old! ”
Tan Yan was deeply ashamed of what her aunt said, although she knew that people in some places might have difficulties in life and didn't even know a word, but thinking of the young man who had behaved appropriately just now, Tan Yan still felt guilty because she had just started to look down on him.
Mrs. Su didn't say anything when she saw Tan Yan's expression, this child has been living in the capital, and she never knew how difficult the life of ordinary people was, although Tan Yan was one of the best children of the young generation of the Tan family, but Mrs. Su didn't want Tan Yan to go astray, and hoped that his view of right and wrong was correct, she knew that what she said had already made him know what to do, Tan Yan had always been a smart child.
After not saying much about Xu Chengzhi, Mrs. Su remembered the recent upset of their family, so she asked Tan Yan directly, "How is the family now?" Are your parents okay? What about grandparents and grandparents? Why did you come directly this time? ”
Thinking of the purpose of his visit to Xujia Village this time, Tan Yan also came back to his senses and remembered what his father said before he came, "Auntie, grandfather and grandmother miss you very much, after receiving your letter, Daddy and they are very anxious, and there is not even a person around you who can be called, Daddy will let his nephew come over first, if there is anything that can help, you can tell your nephew directly, and the Di family will not dare to come nonsense." ”
Mrs. Su breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, she thought that her father and mother were angry because she insisted on following him out of Beijing, and her anger has not subsided until now, fortunately, fortunately, her father and mother will not ignore them.
Although Mrs. Su breathed a sigh of relief, Tan Yan's expression was vaguely uncomfortable, although she knew that saying it might worry her aunt, but her aunt would know about that matter sooner or later, rather than knowing about it from others, it was better to let him say it himself.
After making up her mind, Tan Yan spoke without hesitation, "Auntie, there is one more thing to be angry about my nephew's visit this time. ”
"Huh?" Mrs. Su asked suspiciously, "What's the matter?" ”
My nephew came all the way to the place, and if there was anything I could discuss with them, maybe they would have a place to help.
"It's business!" Tan Yan replied softly.
"Hmm!" Since it was an official matter, Mrs. Su didn't plan to ask more, so as not to involve many things that could not be said and make her nephew embarrassed.
But although Mrs. Su didn't plan to ask again, Tan Yan also took the initiative to say, "Actually, this time my nephew originally planned to come to Linchuan to take up a post, and my nephew's immediate boss is actually Master Di Zedi!" ”
Mrs. Su was stunned for a moment, originally thought that after her nephew came, the Di family might not do anything in the face of her mother's family, but she didn't expect that even her nephew would go underground to be governed by others, this time Mrs. Su didn't know what to say, she was worried about making Tan Yan embarrassed, if Tan Yan offended the Di family because of them, Tan Yan might have a hard time acting in Linchuan in the future.
In fact, Tan Yan didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, his original place of employment was not in Linchuan, but his grandparents and father were really worried about his aunt here, so they contacted someone to change his place, also so that he would not be bullied by his aunt and them.
But he didn't expect that as soon as the order came down, he packed his bags and was about to leave when he received a letter from his aunt, and after reading the letter, he was even more eager to go on the road, worried that if he hesitated a little and left late, the Di family would already have a move.
It wasn't until he came to Xujia Village to see his aunt that his heart that had been hanging all the way was completely relaxed, and it was only then that he remembered that he was going to serve in Linchuan this time.
In fact, in his opinion, this incident did not affect him to support his little cousin, but he was worried that his aunt would worry about him if she knew about him from other people's mouths in the future, just as his aunt was upset when he said it now.
Tan Yan smiled and said, "Auntie, don't worry, my nephew promised before he came, Lord Di Zedi is indeed a good official who is done by the people, and Di Feng, the fourth son of the Di family, has never been the kind of gentleman who will rob the people's daughters, and the nephew has also intersected with the third son of Lord Di in the capital, and the third son of Di is also a righteous gentleman, aunt, you don't have to worry at all, maybe it's just a misunderstanding!" ”
Mrs. Su was a little unhappy when she heard her nephew say good things for the Di family, but after all, these words came through the mouth of her nephew, and Mrs. Su didn't have much to say, so she could only think about waiting for the opportunity to meet the fourth son of the Di family before talking about his character.
But Mrs. Su didn't expect that she would meet this Fourth Prince of Di so soon......
