When he followed Cheng Yunhe to the study again, Tang An suddenly felt like a world away.

Although he knew that with his vision and ability, he would be able to emerge sooner or later, but he did not expect that this day would come so soon.

Along the way, Tang An's mind turned back and forth, and he kept thinking about a question: should he leave here and find a broader sky? Presumably, Cheng Yunhe came to him to ask this question clearly.

Originally, as a scholar, a big man like Cheng Yunhe was able to look at him more, and he no longer knew that it was a blessing from several generations of cultivation. But now, he has become a court official appointed by the emperor. can get the emperor's favor, Tang An's future achievements are almost foreseeable. The small pond of the Cheng family can hold Tang An, a carp that has turned into a dragon?

Looking back at the familiar flowers and plants outside the house, Tang An suddenly felt a little sad.

"Sit down."

Cheng Yunhe pointed to the chair opposite. A simple greeting showed that he had put Tang An in the equal position. Again, it's a little rusty.

"Tang An, Tang An, I still remember the embarrassed appearance when I first met you, I couldn't imagine that in such a short time, but it was already a thing." Cheng Yunhe sighed.

Tang An was reminded by these words. When he was brought to Cheng Mansion by Cheng Caihe, he felt like he had entered the golden house when he looked at the antiques in the house, but he was regarded as a thief by Cheng Caixi, who returned from the case, and he made a fuss for a while.

"yes, so much time has passed in a blink of an eye, time flies so fast." Tang An remembered.

"From that moment on, I knew you weren't any ordinary person. But you just came to Chengfu, I can't promise you a good reward, everything depends on your own ability, and you didn't disappoint me. Not only me, but even Dean Li Moyu is full of praise for you. Cheng Yunhe smiled, "Of course, I am a businessman, and no matter how high your academic attainments are, I will not be too surprised." What really impressed me with you was when you came up with the idea for Genting Mall. Before that, I never thought I could do this business. ”

"Tang An's food and clothing are all given to me by the master, and it is Tang An's duty to share the worries of the Cheng family." Tang Andao.

"You can't say that. There are many subordinates in the Cheng Mansion, and it is not that they don't want to repay the Cheng family, but they really don't have the ability, but you don't: you have thoughts, ambitions, vision, and means. If it weren't for your bad background, I'm afraid you would have already become a famous figure. Those three great talents that are rumored in the market are as naïve as children compared to you. Cheng Yunhe said, "Alas, sometimes I even think that if Caihe has half of your ability, then my Cheng family will be revitalized." So no matter how good you are, I always let you follow him, so that he can learn more. ”

"Master, the young master is still young, and he is just not sensible now." Tang Andao.

Cheng Yunhe smiled dumbly and said, "Listening to what you said is so old-fashioned, if others will think how old you are." Tang An, are you twenty this year? ”

Tang An smiled bitterly: "Master, everyone's circumstances are different, and you can't measure your state of mind simply by age. The young master and I grew up in completely different environments, and the experiences I encountered were beyond his dreams. ”

"yes!" Cheng Yunhe sighed, "Tang An, these days, I want to thank you very much. Cai He and Cai Xi, one is timid and afraid, the other is reckless, thanks to you for helping them all the time. Alas, it's me, the father, who owes them so much. Thirteen years ago, their mother suddenly left, the two of them were still young at that time, and they had never felt mother's love for so many years, and their temperament would inevitably be a little paranoid. Especially Cai Xi, this stupid child, she is actually just showing that she is very strong, in fact, her suffering is always in her heart and does not say it to anyone. ”

Thinking of the eldest lady's sassy appearance of dancing with knives and guns on weekdays, especially pulling out half of the sword at every turn, she said the familiar mantra by the way: Believe it or not, I killed you! The corners of Tang An's mouth unconsciously pouted with a hint of a smile. And when I think of the night when I was fighting, the helpless appearance of the jade man behind me crying silently like a frightened bird turned out to be a pain in my heart for no reason.

"Okay, let's not talk about that. I'm coming to you today to congratulate you. I've always known your ability, but I didn't expect that even the emperor would be impressed by you. Cheng Yunhe said. Tang An, I have met many people in my life, and there has never been one who I can't see through like you. ”

Rao is Tang An is thick-skinned, but he can't help blushing a little: "Master, in fact, I'm not that good." ”

"You don't have to be humble. There are many talented people, but none of them can achieve great things in poetry, dance, eloquence, business, and so on, and you can do it. Not only that, you are old and spicy, and you will unknowingly attract your opponent into your trap, Wei Jianling is like this, and Luo Dongchen is the same. With an opponent like you, I'm afraid that no one else will be able to sleep. Cheng Yunhe said, sighed vigorously, and said: "It's a pity that the fate is extinguished, and there will be a day when we get together." ”

Cheng Yunhe's eyes were blazing, and he said, "Tang An, I just want to ask you: What do you think now?" ”

Cheng Yunhe's meaning is very clear: If you want to be an official, I will never obstruct it. If you want to stay in Cheng Mansion, then I will naturally welcome you with open arms!

Tang An's heart was mixed.

To tell the truth, he had just come to this world, and with his extraordinary insight, he wanted to establish an immortal feat. But with the passage of time, his mood has already changed, especially Cheng Yunhe's family, which gave him the warmth of a family.

Cheng Caihe's unreserved dependence on himself, Cheng Caixi's knife mouth tofu heart, Cuizhu's girl screamed one by one, Laifu called this little family to wake herself up on time, Aunt Zhang in the kitchen would put a few more pieces of meat every time she served a meal, the housekeeper Uncle Cheng added material to his winter cotton clothes, and Pang Chunyou, the steward of Genting Tower, used his experience and insight to constantly teach himself...

All of this imperceptibly infected his heart. Compared with the coldness of officialdom, this place is more like a warm harbor.

If he leaves, not to mention what kind of wind and rain he will face, then the eldest young master will be bullied again, who will help him get ahead? Genting Mall still has a lot of questions, who will follow up? What should I do if the eldest lady has a stinky temper and runs away from home again? If she wants to drink, who can accompany her? When she cries in the middle of the night, who can carry her home to comfort her?

Myself... Where do we go from here?

"Tang An, to speak from the heart, having a talent like you is God's favor for my Cheng family. But I can't delay your future just for my own selfishness. With your ability, you should go to a better place to display your talents. Cheng Yunhe said.

Master... Gentleman... And the stinky lady...

I don't know why, when Cheng Yunhe finished asking these words, Tang An's mind was no longer a mountain of gold and silver, no longer a famous history, but always these people who have been with him since he came here.

Can you leave them?

Thinking about this link, the smile crawled back on his face.

"Master, I've thought about it."

"Oh?" Cheng Yunhe said.

"Money is precious, but fame and fortune are even more valuable. If it is a family care, both can be thrown. Tang An said, "In Tang An's eyes, you, the master, the eldest young master, the eldest lady, Laifu, Cuizhu, and Uncle Cheng are like my family." You have been silently helping me and encouraging me, so that my little scholar can show himself. This is my home, without this home, I am afraid that I would have starved to death on the streets a long time ago, let alone the current Tang An. So, no matter how much I can achieve, I won't leave here. ”

Saying that, Tang An looked at Cheng Yunhe with a resolute face and said, "So-I'm not going anywhere!" I still want to stay here and be my gold medal little scholar! ”

A hint of joy flashed on Cheng Yunhe's face, and he said, "You... Is this true? ”

"The real deal!"

"You're young, don't be presumptuous. You should know that if you enter the officialdom and take advantage of the emperor's favor in the East, I am afraid it will not be long before you rise to the top..."

This old guy is really hypocritical. They wanted me to stay, but they still said that these Rausch things tempted me. Don't you know that my will is very weak?

"Master, you don't have to say more, Tang Anxin has made up his mind!" Tang An looked resolute, stretched out his right hand, and said loudly: "Tang An is bound to contribute all his strength for the rise of the Cheng family!" For the master, for the young master, for the eldest lady..."

"Enough is enough, I'll let you stay!"

"Wow, master, you are really wise, powerful, domineering, and things are like gods, and the Cheng family, under the leadership of you, master, will definitely be able to ride the wind and waves, and dominate the rivers and lakes for thousands of generations..."

"Get out!"

…

In the corner outside the study, Cheng Caixi, who had been silently hiding in the corner, carefully leaned his ear on the wall, and grabbed the clothes on his chest tightly with one hand.

When she heard that Tang An was finally willing to stay, her face that had been tense finally showed a smile, but for some reason, a few restless tears came out of her eyes with a smile and laughter, and muttered: "This bastard dares to make Miss Ben angry again, believe it or not, he will kill you with a sword..."

(Cheng Caixi: If you don't vote again, believe it or not, this girl will kill you!) ）
