Chapter 22 Doing as the Locals Practice
Zhang An rode on the horse, like a new champion returning home, and kept greeting the neighbors who were complimenting him.
No wonder there is a word called returning home?
Even if he doesn't have a good relationship with these familiar and strange neighbors, he can be envied by so many people in person, which is completely inextricable!
There is a sentence that can be used to describe Zhang An's situation at this time.
At this moment, I am the most beautiful boy in the whole alley!
However, slowly, Zhang An's mood began to be a little bad.
"Brother An, do you remember that when you were only three years old, I held you in my arms and amused, but you still peed on me?"
Why don't you open your mouth if you can't speak, and you can make me look up to you if you say this?
"Brother An, when your father died outside, I came to inform your family, now that you are developed, I will ask you for help in the future, don't you know anyone?"
Girl, who are you, just say this to you, I will not help.
I don't know how much I think you've helped, what kind of person is this!
"Brother An, you still remember that you and my family Erni pretended to be a family wine, you promised to marry her, now you are the right age, when do you think you will come to the door to propose?"
Pull it down!
You said that you were pretending to be a family wine, who can take it seriously?
There are still many people who want to cling to Zhang An, and there are even more people who want to take them to fly.
How does it feel different from what you imagined?
Shouldn't it be a compliment with a little panic?
He is also a general of the imperial court, and he is a second-class official, why are they not afraid and have no sense of alienation?
I remember that in the past, they were frightened and frightened when they saw a workshop chief, hiding far away, even if they met, they nodded their heads, his official son was much bigger than a tasteless workshop, why is it different?
Zhang An's smile faded, and the original joy turned into boredom, but it was hard to say anything.
was just blocked by the crowd, and he couldn't move for a while, and Zhang An was helpless.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, the rescue finally came.
"Get out of the way for a certain family, don't get in the way of the general!"
"A certain family warns you, be careful when you speak, and be careful of causing trouble for yourself!"
After a few yells in succession, the crowded crowd in the alley suddenly dispersed, and the appearance of palpitations made Zhang An inexplicably happy.
Zhang An only heard the voice and knew that it was his cousin who cleared the scene.
Yes, I see.
Suddenly, Zhang An found that he had unknowingly become the person he hated the most.
Thinking of the previous conflict with Rongguo Mansion, Zhang An inexplicably understood why the ancient high-ranking families had to put their own pomp and circumstance.
Really, if there was no pomp, like today's situation, and even more embarrassing things for him, he would have a headache.
It's not that he is rich and noble, so he doesn't care about his former neighbors, it's just that this is not a scorer.
The more you give some people a good look, the more he will climb up the pole, and it is no wonder that Zhu Chongba will take the knife with his playmate.
There is nothing to say, in Ni Er's diligent waiting, Zhang An finally returned home.
And outside, they talked a lot and slowly dispersed.
"Hmph, cousin doesn't have to be too polite to those people, otherwise they will get an inch!"
Zhang An was puzzled, it seems that there is something to say in this.
"Oh, second brother, what do you say?"
Ni Er said with an indignant look: "Cousin, someone from the palace came to announce the decree before, and my aunt was very happy, and she saw that the neighbors came to congratulate her, and she gave the happy money that was sent. ”
"However, when they saw that their aunt was easy to talk to, they got carried away one by one, this one wanted to borrow some money, the other asked for help, and many other troubles came to the door."
"If it weren't for the angel who came to announce the decree and specially confessed something to my aunt, maybe the things rewarded by the court would have been coaxed away by them from my aunt."
"Fortunately, I arrived in time, otherwise there would be too many people in this family to stand."
Zhang An nodded silently, and asked again: "Wait, I'm back, why didn't my mother come out?" ”
Ni Er smiled bitterly: "Hey, it was too chaotic in the courtyard just now, I asked my aunt to hide in the house." ”
Sure enough, as soon as Zhang An walked into the room, he saw Zhang Ni hurriedly greeted him.
"Mother, I'm worrying you, yes, no."
Zhang Nishi smiled with a smile on his face: "Brother An, quick, the angel has sent you a set of brocade clothes, you can wear it and try it to see if it fits." ”
Hi, what's there to try here.
Zhang An smiled bitterly: "Mother, don't worry, I heard the second brother just now say that the angel who came to announce the decree explained something to you, what is the matter?" ”
When Zhang Nishi heard this, he patted Zhang An angrily.
"You're embarrassed to ask, it's not all your fault!"
???
What's wrong with me?
"Mother, what are you talking about, what's wrong with me?"
"Isn't it good for me, now I am also the general of the imperial court, and our family even has a new mansion."
"When the descendants given by the Emperor are ready to be in place, we can move in and move in, and when the time comes, my mother should also enjoy the blessings."
Zhang Nishi happily took Zhang An's hand and smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, my mother can enjoy my son's blessings!" ”
"Hey, it's all your father's fault for leaving early, my mother is a woman, and she doesn't understand anything outside, so my son was laughed at."
Zhang Anyue was puzzled.
"Mother, I don't understand what you're talking about."
Zhang Nishi restrained the smile on his face and asked: "Brother An, your identity is different now, you are no longer a bitter person who makes a living by selling coolies on the dock, haha, you have to learn from those officials and masters when you speak and do things." ”
"Tell me, with your dress, if it was okay before, it can't be now."
"Let outsiders see it, and think that the court is thanks to you, isn't this damaging to the face of the court."
"Mother told you that you can come as comfortably as you want at home."
"But when you go outside and meet outsiders, your dress and every move represent the face of the court, and you can't lose your dignity."
"Tell me, if it weren't for your second cousin Ni before, you wouldn't be able to get in outside now."
"But if you had changed into a brocade dress and had an entourage with you, would you have had so much trouble?"
I see!
From the beginning, it was his fault!
Zhang An smiled bitterly and looked at the line on his body, and then thought about those powerful people.
It's not like anything, you are so ordinary, who is afraid that you respect you?
Zhang An didn't want to be a clean official, he had to make himself want to have fun with the people or something, what's the use of talking about that, he is not a county master.
Yes, this is a collision between different thinking of the two eras, and some mistakes are understandable.
But, hehe, the life of the powerful family in feudal society, he really looks forward to it.
"Mother, my son understands, change, who doesn't like to wear new clothes!"
"Hey, that's right."
Zhang Nishi said again: "Also, the etiquette that your father taught you at the beginning, haven't you forgotten it all these years?" ”
"You kid also has a big heart, and you don't know how to be respectful when you see the two saints, and you're not afraid of angering the saints and causing disaster to your own family?"
When Zhang An heard this, his brows furrowed, and he asked, "Mother, did the eunuch who came to the palace say something, you can tell your son." ”
Zhang Ni's eyes were horizontal, and he roared, "What? Mother still can't tell you? ”
"Don't shake your general's majesty with your mother!"
"Although the angel didn't say your question directly, can you still hear it?"
"You, you have been lonely since you were a child, and your temper is very weird, if your father is not here, my mother is afraid that our family will be bullied, and she will not let you become like this."
"But son, my mother is the only one left with you, my mother is afraid."
"You said that you are rich and noble now, and it seems that you will enjoy endless glory and wealth, but who knows if you will suddenly be knocked into the abyss tomorrow?"
"So, let's be careful and be a low-key person, the etiquette that should be had, the etiquette of the court, etc., can't be less, understand?"
Zhang An nodded and comforted: "Understood, mother, I know what to do." ”
Isn't it just to be respectful to the Emperor and the Emperor?
Give them some face, otherwise, maybe one day they will be unhappy in their hearts, and they will be able to become a fuse to take him under the knife.
People have to bow their heads under the eaves!
In the past, when I was messing around in the unit, I was scolded by the leader for being a bloody dog, didn't I honestly accept it?
What's more, he doesn't really have any arrogance, he can't kneel down or anything, it's all false.
One place, one custom, the truth of following the customs of the locals, Zhang An still understands.
Yes, it seems that it is time to change it in the future.
By the way, weren't you really nervous when he was in the palace?
He's just a salted fish old otaku, relying on his identity as a showdown traverser to pretend to be a big man.
If he continues to do this for a long time, tsk, he is not used to not talking about it, and he may even be able to mess himself up.
After all, his statement that he could go back after death was completely made up.
It's better to die than to live, it's just a sycophant, even if you can't say it, you can't do it with a respectful attitude?
"You've completed a hidden quest, reward..."
