Chapter 118: Those who look down on others will sometimes be in embarrassment [End of third update]

"Master, Master..."

As soon as the servant went upstairs and opened the door, he saw Chen Hua sitting upright.

Chen Hua knelt down on the mat, put the case in front of him, looked over indifferently, saw that this servant was the only one, and immediately frowned: "It's been so long, has no one passed the three questions?"

He sat here, holding the shelf, mentally estimating the time, thinking it was almost time, but he didn't expect that only a servant came in.

But the servant looked sad and said: "Master, our estimate was wrong. It turns out that the commotion in the Chen Mansion tonight was not due to the fact that you were coming, Master, but because of an aide of General Zhu Shouzhong. He gave money to Chen Zhi in the name of General Zhonglang." Congratulations, Chen Chi, Chen Bian and the others are rushing to Shulinzhai to meet this Zhu Shou staff."

"What did you say? Chen Zhi? Which Chen Zhi? Chen Zhi from Shulinzhai?" Chen Hua asked in surprise. He had already planned several paragraphs to wake up the Chen family in Pengcheng, but no one came?Also involved are General Zhu Shouzhong and Chen Zhi.

Although Chen Zhi is famous, Chen Hua, who is famous in Jiangzuo, does not regard him as a threat, but the situation does not seem to be right now.

and many more!

"General Zhu Shouzhong?"

Chen Hua had a look of surprise and uncertainty on his face.

"But Zhu Shou of the Zhu family in Jiangdong, isn't he a general in Qingzhou? How come he has anything to do with Shulinzhai?"

"You ask me, I don't know." The servant said sadly, "Anyway, General Zhu's staff came over to congratulate Chen Zhi for some reason, that's why there was such a battle in Fengyang Street before. Master, what's wrong now? manage?"

Chen Hua was sitting on the table, his face turning blue and white. He noticed the servant's eyes and felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Just now, Chen Hua made some gestures, preparing for this and flaunting that, as if everything was under control, but in the end he was in vain, which made him feel uncomfortable, and even the servant in front of him seemed to be using something strange. Looking at himself.

What a disgrace to the house slave!
When he thought of this, Chen Hua felt inexplicably angry.

"So, even now, the Chen family in Pengcheng still hasn't noticed that I'm here? This ability is really not that good!" After finding a step, Chen Hua stood up and said, "Since this happened , I can’t just leave it alone, I want to see what’s so different about Chen Zhi that can attract Zhu Shou to send someone here!”

"Master, are you going to congratulate him too?" The servant was a little surprised. In his impression, this arrogant young master was not someone who bowed his head easily.

"Congratulations? How is that possible!" Chen Hua shook his head and said calmly, "If Zhu Shou came in person, I would visit him at his house, but he only sent a pawn here to congratulate a family member. How could I lower myself? ? I am a seventh-grade local product, about to reach the middle grade, and I am going to congratulate Chen Zhi? He is not even a low-grade one, is he worthy?"

After laughing, Chen Hua walked away, and his servants quickly followed. When they arrived at Fengyang Street, there were bullock carts blocking the road outside Shulinzhai, and it was even more lively inside.

"Mr. Zheng, I'm Chen Bian. I have admired your name for a long time and wanted to see you for a long time. Unexpectedly, thanks to my Xiaoqi's favor, I finally got to meet you, sir."

"Mr. Zheng, this is a dog. Chen Luo, you haven't come over to show Mr. Zheng a courtesy. There are no rules at all."

"Mr. Zheng, my Chen family also has a wine shop on this street. I have notified them there and asked them to prepare wine and food. I hope you can enjoy it later."

Chen Chi, Chen Bian and others surrounded Guan Zheng and flattered him one by one.

However, when Guan Zheng was talking to Chen Zhi, he was all smiles. When the Chen family men came, he immediately picked up the shelf. When Chen Bian mentioned the wine shop, he immediately looked at Chen Zhi and said with a smile: "It depends on the matter." What Mr. Chen means is that I am here to congratulate Mr. Chen on behalf of my general. I dare not leave without his permission, otherwise I cannot afford to blame the general."

When he said this, all the Chens were startled, and Qi Qi looked at Chen Zhi with complicated expressions.

Chen Zhi said with a smile: "My place is simple and I can't entertain distinguished guests. If my uncle is willing to help, that's the best thing."

When he said this, Chen Chi's face immediately burst into laughter, feeling that Chen Zhi was getting close to him.But Chen Bian frowned, feeling threatened.

Such subtle changes, being seen by caring people, have to be moved with emotion.

With just one sentence, the two powerful figures in the Chen family had to figure it out and worry about it. This is real influence!
Just a few days ago, Chen Chi, Chen Bian and others were counting on calling people to help Chen Zhi before he became famous. Now it seems that this plan was wrong from the beginning.

"Even if no one comes to the door this year, as long as Guan Zheng comes, not to mention all the rooms in our Chen Mansion, even if the entire Pengcheng family is included, they may not be able to match Chen Zhi's momentum."

Chen Yuan stood on the edge of the crowd, looking at the young man with an indifferent expression, filled with emotion.Suddenly, the entire Chen family's emotions became complicated.

However, in this complicated mood, there is also a trace of hope. No matter what, Chen Zhi is a member of the Chen family. The more he rises, the more the entire family will benefit.

What happened today is an example. What kind of person is Zhu Shou behind Zheng Guan?During the dinner at the Zhang Mansion, Chen Bian was very happy to be able to talk to Zuo Yuan of the Zuo family in Qingzhou. But how could they easily get in touch with people from the Zhu family who were more powerful than the Zuo family?
It happened that such a person sent someone here today. Not only did he come, he also talked to them pleasantly. At other times, that would have been unthinkable, but because of Chen Zhi's relationship, everything fell into place.

Compared with the thoughts of many Chen family masters, the family members of Chen Xun and others were even more surprised.

"In the past few days, I have always heard that these seven nephews are powerful. Today I know that what I said is true. Look at this New Year's gift. These are jade bracelets, right? They are still in pairs."

"This is just one box, there are more over here."

"Sister, come and see this, this is Yuchaifang's finest rouge and gouache!"

What these family members were more interested in was the New Year's gift for Chen Zhi.

In addition to those given by Cui Shi, the New Year's gifts brought by both the Liu and Peng families were quite expensive. In order to build momentum for Chen Zhi, Zheng Guan investigated clearly and found out that the New Year's gifts brought by them included many, including rouge and gouache. It was for Chen Zhi's aunt and younger sister.

Many family members of the Chen family pointed and looked envious. There were also Chen Zhi's cousins ​​and cousins ​​who wanted something, and they pulled Chen Zhi's younger sister Chen Man, looking cordial.

"Sister Chen Man, this box of rouge will definitely look good when you use it."

"That's right, that's right, my little sister looks like the embryo of a beauty."

"Would you like to try it now?"

Not talking about these discussions, let's talk about the corner of the room. Wang Xi listened to many words and his face felt unnatural for a while. He also asked people to bring new year's gifts, but the most precious one was only Mrs. Wei's copybook, which was also a fake.

Wang Xi didn't expect Chen Zhi's sudden rise. He thought that if he came, he would be a distinguished guest of Chen Zhi's family. The gifts he prepared were also suitable for Chen Zhi's calligraphy, but he did not expect such a situation.

"Compared with these annual gifts, how can I get rid of this thing?" Looking at the authentic work of Mrs. Wei sent by Zheng Guan, Wang Xi felt anxious, "I should use the things at the bottom of the box to make friends, now this When I give things away, don't think that I am deliberately negligent and fail to be friendly, but instead have a prejudice, which will be self-defeating."

Previously, he thought that Chen Zhi was only famous in Pengcheng and that he still had a chance. However, when Guan Zheng came, the situation suddenly changed. Looking at it now, he was afraid that he could not even compare to Cui Shi's gift.

"It's funny. I just thought that eating at the same table with Cui Shi would be bad for my reputation. Now when others look at me, they probably think the same thing."

Suddenly, there were mixed feelings in the room.

However, the arrival of these Chen family masters did not surprise Liu Gang and others. As soon as Guan Zheng arrived, they all knew that it was something serious and sent people back to inform their families.

In fact, when the Chen family was in a state of commotion and each house was leaving, the Liu family, the Peng family and other Pengcheng families were also confused and had many speculations. However, no one felt inappropriate about the decision to congratulate Chen Zhi. ——

This matter was decided by several princes, but some people felt it was inappropriate, but they did not dare to say it openly due to their status and prestige. Now these scattered words have disappeared.

"As soon as Guan Zheng came, it became natural for me to visit the aristocratic family, and it further established Chen Zhi's status. The Chen family is really prosperous again!"

It is not uncommon for a family to prosper in the name of one person. In front of the Chen family, there is the Bai Qing case to replenish blood, and today there is a congratulation to make the name famous. The day of prosperity is not far away.

dong dong dong.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and then Yang Yong, dressed in casual clothes, walked in with a smile.
