Disaster relief is nothing more than money and food, although the Cheng family is rich, but the wealth is limited, not to mention the first bird shot by the gun, and everyone has to eat meat together.

"We have to save ourselves first, and then find a few people who are pleasing to the eye to save them, form a good relationship and get closer, and normal charity will definitely be followed by it."

We want to take this opportunity to take the lead in the Beijing Chamber of Commerce, and we must have the right to speak in the Chamber of Commerce."

"Eat at both ends."

Win over the merchants to contribute, take the credit on themselves and go to the emperor to ask for credit, and then feed the feedback from the emperor to the merchants, "When the time comes, our Cheng family will hold the golden thighs above, and someone will support them below, so that we can be regarded as gaining a firm foothold in the capital." ”

"Then push the sons of the Cheng family upward, even if we don't have a title in the future, we can also turn into an official family."

"As for making friends, I believe that there must be some officials in the capital who are not rich and noble, and there are not enough rice and grain to eat, and when the time comes, we can help them a little when they are in the most difficult time."

It's all here, she also wants to do better, not to lose the face of the majority of people, but also to find something to do for her fat father, don't worry about her cousin all day long.

Du Linxiang smiled and said, "I see that the major families in the capital are all intertwined, and there are in-laws everywhere, although we don't have them, but we can pull the current in-laws, everyone climbs up together and supports each other." ”

Xiao Siniang laughed, "Sister-in-law's mother's family has a good candidate?" ”

"Yes, me."

Before the words were finished, Uncle Wang came quickly, the old lady of the Cheng family and the eldest man of the Cheng family, Cheng Daqian, arrived, accompanied by Cheng Daqian's son Cheng Youqian, and his daughter Cheng Sanniang.

"Counting the days, our letter should be returned on the way, how did it come so quickly?"

The family hurried to greet them, and when they arrived at the door, Mrs. Cheng had already entered the door, and the old lady, who was already in her fifties, was in good spirits, had a young face, and seemed to be a well-pampered and well-maintained person, not showing much kindness, but a little serious.

Cheng Daqi's eyes were red, "My son is unfilial and makes his mother suffer." ”

The old lady saw that the family was very there, and her tense expression eased a lot, "It's okay, it's you, it's a little less." ”

Cheng Daqi smiled, "My son is too fat, and the doctor said that it is not conducive to longevity, so it is better to reduce it." ”

Xiao Siniang looked sideways, her fat father was still good, and she didn't complain that she was forced to reduce it by her mother.

"Grandma." "Uncle." "Second uncle."

Everyone greeted each other, and then Cheng Daqi and his wife helped people to walk in one by one, "Mother received our letter?" ”

"Letter?"

Old Madam Cheng shook her head, "Your eldest brother said that he wanted to come to the capital to discuss with you, I thought I hadn't come for some days, so come and see, did you write to me?" ”

Cheng Daqi sighed, "Let's go in and talk about it." ”

"The capital is moving, and I'm afraid that there will be no one living in the house, so I can only grieve my mother."

The old lady sighed again, "God has lost his temper, and everyone is already blessed by the Bodhisattva, and he doesn't pay attention to those." ”

When they arrived at the main courtyard, after Mrs. Cheng sat down, her grandchildren stepped forward again to say goodbye, and Cheng Daqian looked at the situation around, "You guys are still good, the house is still there, the loss is not big, and there is a wailing outside the city." ”

After speaking, he sighed heavily, it was a happy thing for brothers to see each other, but they couldn't be happy at this time.

Mrs. Cheng couldn't be idle at a glance, just sat down and drank a cup of tea and asked if something was going on in the house, Cheng Daqi told everything in 1510, from the Yan family to divorce his wife to the house to make trouble, and to Xiao Siniang got a little phoenix in the palace, "As soon as this thing comes out, I want my working mother to come to live in the house and help discuss." ”

"Second sister."

Cheng Sanniang held Cheng Erniang's hand, her eyes were red, and she didn't know how to comfort her. “

"That Yan family is simply excessive!"

Cheng Youqian was filled with indignation, "It's just too deceitful!" ”

Cheng Daqian is even more angry, the two brothers have had a good relationship since childhood, and they have supported each other for so many years, treating each other's children as their own, it can be said that the anger at this time is comparable to that of Cheng Daqi at the beginning.

Even Mrs. Cheng's eyes were red, and she stretched out her hand to let Cheng Erniang go to her side, "My poor granddaughter, it's not a pity for us to be a little general of the Yan family, it's okay to leave, you can save a lifetime, and live at home in the future, don't think about anything, who in the family dares to show you a face, milk can't spare him!" ”

So many people are supporting themselves, Cheng Erniang also nodded with red eyes, and rarely quipped, "Daddy, they all said so, and Dad also said that he would go back and catch my son-in-law." ”

The old lady was stunned, and then smiled, and the granddaughter still had the heart to joke, it seemed that the family had comforted her.

"Okay, let's get over it, and don't mention it to anyone."

"Xiao Si's brain is good?"

"Alright." Without waiting for Xiao Siniang to speak, Cheng Yousan hurriedly spoke, "Grandma, you don't know that Xiao Si has become smarter after being beaten with a stick, and now she has taken over the management of the house, and all the stewards are now listening to her." ”

"Just before you came in, she was still telling her eldest brother that this time the ground move was an opportunity for our Cheng family, and she wanted to eat both."

"But the fourth brother is smart, the second brother is stupid again, now he is locked in the house every day to read, he doesn't want to eat, and he went to Rende Academy to ask about admission, and he can go to the college to study after he has passed the assessment."

Cheng Youer, who was named, rolled his eyes, "I'm helping the family, didn't I hear the fourth and eldest brother just now say that they want to push the family to the official career, and when I become an official, I will cover you, and now you shut up." ”

The power of unrequited love is too great, and Cheng Youer is a little enchanted when he reads now.

Xiao Siniang said that she would leave him alone for the time being, let him go with his head hanging on the beam, and when he had time, he would get You Qinglian to encourage him on the spot.

Cheng Daqian sat down happily, "The people of our Cheng family, regardless of men and women, can do business, Xiaosi, tell the second uncle what you think." ”

Xiao Siniang is also happy, to say that her eldest brother is lucky to make money, then his second uncle is a natural money-making expert, it is said that at the age of eight he got the family's shop and began to practice, and doing business has become an instinct.

Standing aside and talking about the current situation of the Cheng family, and deliberately said that it was a little more difficult, and then they said their thoughts, "People outside say that my father is a minister, so they know that pleasing the emperor is irreversible, so it is better to sit down." ”

"It's not a shame for us to have the emperor's protection and benefit the family."

Cheng Daqi blinked, "Reputation is nothing, it's not difficult to change, this time the ground movement is just that we operate well, and we will be able to have one more name of benevolence and righteousness in the future." ”

"As for the ministers, then the ministers, how many people are quite unacceptable."

He figured it out, why should he wronged himself to please others, and when he was powerful, someone would naturally come to please him, and when he said that wearing patched clothes was a virtue, and the people who scolded him didn't dare to say no.

Think about your pretentious appearance before, the remorse is incomprehensible, how much less meat did you eat in order to pretend to be poor?

Loss, too much loss!
