Chapter 41: Old Madam Liu
Zheng Tong understood in his heart that Liu Zhi had been bullied for a long time, and once he gained power, those methods that others had made him suffer losses and were excessively used in the past, if he swallowed it, it would be fine, but if he opened his mouth and wanted to change his course, then no one could pull it back.
In their current situation, it is better to turn around and follow him if they go to hit this south wall.
If you can share the profits, the public inspection will naturally be able to.
The old woman opened her mouth to scold Liu, and she must have known the twists and turns in the center.
It's better for them to arch this fire, Liu Zhi hit a wall at his aunt's, and they stood up to support Taishou again, helping to do this public inspection, and when they intervened, the studied ink melted into the water, but it couldn't be split again.
Although Zheng Tong said that he was so calculating, he only said that the Tongcheng clan would support Liu Zhukai's public inspection, and everyone present couldn't get rid of it anyway, if you want to understand, the piece of the pie will be divided in the future, and the time will be long, not now.
If there are one or two people who don't understand, when the time comes, you can only blame yourself for being confused and complaining about others.
Sun Wang and these old men also knew that Zheng Tong had not finished speaking, and he would follow what he did. Verbally, they all responded.
Everyone took a look, Zheng Tong originally wanted to support them to prepare a gift, but he didn't want the old man to prepare it already before.
There was nothing to say here, and everyone went to the Taishou Courtyard together.
At this time, Zhou Tong went to Qianlong County to invite Li Xun, which would not be in Tongcheng.
Wen Liang pretended to be the "general" of the Liangzhou army a few days ago, and it was not easy to meet them, so he was simply sent outside the city by Wen Gu, and took a few secret guards who were busy these days to fight some pheasants and rabbits.
At this time, only Zhixia was left intimately, and the two of them were waiting in the house.
After eating two cups of tea and one plate of fruit, the guests came to the door.
The concierge was instructed to review the past, and the gifts prepared by several masters were all accepted, and the books were checked and directly put into the warehouse.
Zheng De and the others didn't even have a housekeeper to say kind words, and Aunt Taishou was so sloppy, and they were a little dissatisfied in their hearts.
After receiving the gift, the next person led a few masters to the main hall, and along the way, the old man Wang babbled in his mouth, and said something like the aunt and the woman who did not understand the etiquette.
But he didn't think that he was here to cause trouble.
As they spoke, they entered the main hall, and saw a young girl sitting on the throne, reading with a book in her hand.
When Zheng Tong and the others looked at her age, they were afraid that they were too guarded nieces, aunts, granddaughters and the like. He cleared his throat and coughed twice, but the girl ignored him.
Zheng Tong was a little embarrassed, and he was also a little dissatisfied, and the hot-tempered Lord Wang frowned when he saw this posture, and said loudly to Master Shi next to him: "Liu Taishou is also in his forties, right?" ”
Master Shi responded and said, "Yes, yes." ”
"Got me right?"
Master Wang laughed. How could you be mistaken. ”
Master Wang sneered and said, "That's it, Master Shi, if you don't say that, I thought that Aunt Taishou was only ten years old." ”
Some of the old men responded, some laughed, and some were silent, Zheng Tong listened silently, and found a seat by himself and sat down by himself.
Seeing everyone like this, Master Wang became even more imposing: "A group of us old men are standing here, neither too guarding our aunts, but when the juniors meet the elders, there must be a number of courtesies." It seems that there are places where there are no rules at home. ”
They discussed in Zheng's house that they wanted to stand aside with Liu Zhi, and this time they came to pay a visit, and they wanted to give it to them.
However, the next horse is also divided into soft and hard, all of which are hard, and they are generally towards tearing the face. If it is all soft, it is easy for people to look down on it, and it is not easy to achieve the effect. You have to do it both hard and soft.
This hard doesn't need Zheng Tong to speak by himself, he knows Master Wang's temperament, just arch him to speak. What's more, you don't have to coax yourself now, just watch from the sidelines.
Saying to this little lady, in fact, I want to let the aunt know an attitude, and when the little lady can't stand it and goes back to invite her aunt, the matter will be discussed again, and when the attitude is recycled, everything will naturally be easy to talk about.
However, after these few words, the little lady's expression did not change, and she didn't even raise her eyes to look at the maid standing on the side.
Master Wang snorted, and wanted to say more, but was stopped by Zheng Tong.
Zheng Tong himself bowed his hand politely, and said in a calm tone: "This little lady, the old Zheng Tong, these people are all important figures in my Tongcheng, this time, I specially came to visit Mrs. Liu of your mansion." ”
Taishou Liu's aunt should naturally be surnamed Liu, and Zheng Tong was right.
Wen put down the book, but his body didn't move, and said, "What should I be doing just now, it turns out that the masters have arrived." I am young, I am easily fascinated by reading, and my voice is noisy, so I am easy to be like insects and birds, and it is not easy to return to my senses. Mr. Zheng said politely, and I could hear it more clearly. ”
The tone of these words was even more unwavering, and when Master Wang heard it, he just wanted to get up and ask her who did you say were insects and birds chirping, but Zheng Tong pressed it down in advance.
This little lady doesn't seem to be easy to scare.
Zheng Tong said politely: "The little lady is so good, just at the age of studying, it is us old men who are bothered." We have some mundane things, and it is not good to delay the little lady to study, please report to Mrs. Liu, and we can talk. ”
"What are you looking for Aunt Taishou?" As he spoke, he motioned to Zhixia to let the maidservants show everyone tea.
Zheng Tong's words were already very polite, but this little lady didn't mean to invite at all, and she didn't care about the title in her words, and said: "It's all trivial things, we old men just talk to Mrs. Liu." ”
"Just tell me." Reminiscence.
When Master Wang heard them say these two words, he didn't care about Zheng Tong stopping him, and said: "This little lady is interesting, I said to you, do you understand?" ”
Wen smiled and said, "You might as well try it." ”
Zheng Tong saw her deal like this, and made a few bends in his heart, this little lady looked a little cold, looking left and right, she was a teenager, even if her face was too young, she couldn't stand up to her early twenties.
Looking at the dress, it is estimated that it should be the old woman who is raised by her side, and I don't know which branch of the Liu family is a young lady, so she called out to be a pioneer at this time, trying to test their meaning, so that she can make calculations.
Zheng Tong was not lazy, and said: "If the little lady doesn't think of the time, we can also just say a few nonsense, and listen to the young people who read the sage books, and have some different opinions." ”
Since Zheng Tong spoke, almost every sentence was inseparable from age, and he calculated in his heart, since his power was not as good as others, he had to mention some of his own advantages.
