Chapter 92 Not breaking the contract and not going against your will
Zhong Ming is a man of integrity, well, at least he won't break his promises in public easily.
Because integrity is actually one of the most powerful weapons within the rules, honest people will always receive preferential treatment within the rules, just like the personal evaluation of the Blue Star Credit System.
Integrity and being easy to be deceived are not the same thing. The so-called people who are good at using the label of "integrity" mean that they have to have enough superficial skills, and they are not lacking in scheming, wisdom and courage. They will be fooled by just a few words.
That's not called an "honest person", that's called a fool.
Therefore, Zhong Ming will always subconsciously protect his public reputation.
The problem is, Zhong Ming has reached a "contract" with Zhu Lingyu and agreed on the price. If Kou Ziyan is let go, she will definitely come to Zhu Lingyu for revenge.
Zhong Ming's credibility in Dayan will inevitably take a huge hit.
If Kou Ziyan is killed directly by being cruel and ruthless, then of course it will be settled once and for all. Hello, hello, hello to everyone.
But he felt uncomfortable in his heart. His empathy with those who had been exploited made him hate doing this.
Breaking a contract is not good; going against one's will is not good either.
However, as a resourceful person with a flexible bottom line, Zhong Ming was able to quickly think of a good way to get the best of both worlds.
…
The next day, the nurse who had fallen on the floor got up from the ground with a sore back and picked up a weapon, and hurriedly came outside Zhu Lingyu's boudoir.
"Madam, are you okay?"
"Madam? Madam?"
The shouts outside the house finally woke up the maid Ayu who was being held by Zhu Lingyu. As for Zhu Lingyu, who had entered a long-lost sweet dream, she was still immersed in this wonderful sleep.
Ayu tried his wife's breathing, and after confirming that it was fine, she didn't dare to get up and disturb her, so she lay on the bed and shouted toward the door:
"Stop making noise, there's nothing wrong here, Madam is still sleeping."
Everyone who vaguely heard Ayu's shouts felt relieved. If something happened to the master's family under their protection, the guards would no longer be able to eat this bowl of rice.
Not to mention that Mrs. Wang's father is also the parent official of Sishui County. If you find any excuse for ordinary people like them, your family can be ruined.
The county magistrate who broke up his family is not a lie.
Perhaps because she hadn't slept well for many days, Zhu Lingyu slept until three o'clock in the morning.
After dressing up, she hurried to the hall and caught up with Zhong Ming wolfing down his lunch.
Although the master has not yet gotten up, these servants dare not neglect him, not to mention entertaining him with delicious food and drinks.
"How did you sleep last night, madam?"
Zhong Ming asked in a loud voice when he saw Zhu Lingyu's face glowing after a full sleep.
Zhu Lingyu made a Wanfu gift and said gratefully:
"Thank you Mr. Zhong for your hard work last night. My family has not slept so peacefully for a long time."
"I just don't know, that..."
"Oh, I understand, I understand what you mean." Zhong Ming picked up a black oil-paper umbrella hanging on the chair, stood up, and opened the umbrella.
Immediately, Kou Ziyan's true identity appeared under the umbrella, staring at Zhu Lingyu with her empty and lifeless eyes, as if she was about to fly towards her in the next second.
"ah!"
Zhu Lingyu screamed, staggered and fell to the ground, rolled and crawled on the ground and was about to run out of the hall.
"snort!"
Zhong Ming snorted coldly at Kou Ziyan and patted the "Noble's Wound" he carried with him. Evil energy surged around his body, and blood and energy spread toward her.
After being burned by Qi and blood, Kou Ziyan finally remembered who had the final say now, restrained her original shape, and returned to her former appearance.
Zhong Ming put the umbrella away again and shouted:
"Madam, don't panic, don't panic. This officer has been subdued by me, so there is no need to panic."
In this way, Zhu Lingyu carefully and slowly approached Zhong Ming again, stood at the table farthest from the black umbrella, and said in shock:
"Mr. Zhong is really a god working through people. He conquered her in just one night. I would like to express my gratitude to you."
After saying that, she wanted to salute Zhong Ming.
Zhong Ming quickly supported her and said:
"Madam, why do you need to give such a big gift? Zhong is just taking people's money to eliminate disasters for them."
"Young Master deserves this tribute for saving his life."
Zhong Ming sidestepped the bow and said jokingly:
"Haha, Madam, Zhong is too embarrassed to deserve such a gift. But Madam, you see I have already taken care of this matter, don't you know?"
She suddenly remembered that the man in front of her was not the one who suffered the loss, so she stood up and said:
"It was the slave's negligence. The items promised to the young master have been prepared. The young master can bring them back later."
"As for the matter entrusted by the young master, I will try my best to explore it."
"It's just that the coast of Surabaya is quite vast. It would be difficult to find a ghost. I'm not sure I can find it."
"I wonder how the young master plans to deal with... Zi Yan?"
Zhong Ming knew that this was urging him to take care of this drowned ghost, so he said without changing his expression:
"Ha, thank you so much, madam. Hunting ghosts... Zhong also knows that it is ridiculous, madam, just do your best."
"This ghost, God has a good nature, and I feel sorry for her. After a few days, when Zhong has free time, he will find a temple to save her. I will not let him disturb my wife again, how about it?"
Zhu Lingyu said softly: "Thank you very much, Mr. Zhong."
…
"The incense of the Sishui River God was first spread from Qingshui Pavilion. If Mr. Zhong is impatient, he can search here more often, and he may gain something."
"Is that so? Madam is really knowledgeable and knowledgeable."
"Master Zhong is so complimentary."
"Wang Juren is really lucky to have such a good wife as his wife. I just wonder why Wang Juren is not at home?"
"Madam has gone through such a terrifying experience. As a husband, he has never been with his wife. It is really inappropriate."
"Besides, as a man, I know very well that when this man is alone, his thoughts tend to go wild."
"Madam, you might as well go and check what Wang Juren is doing. Maybe he is hiding his beauty in the golden house!"
…
There was another meaningless exchange of business offers and attempts to stay. After declining, Zhong Ming returned home loaded with a load of medicinal materials.
Seeing that he was getting farther and farther away from his enemy, the black umbrella began to tremble restlessly in front of Zhong Ming.
"Quiet," Zhong Ming patted the black umbrella and said, "I said there will be retribution for the Wang family. I never lie."
"Since I have received benefits from the Wang family, I will not let you have the opportunity to kill anyone from the Wang family."
"But, I also have a strong 'sense of justice'. I can't stand these slutty people from rich and wealthy families who look like ugly people, so I promise to avenge you and I will definitely do it. Don't shake your head to show your presence."
"Since you said that Wang Xuzhi is getting involved with a painted ghost, Mrs. Wang is quite jealous. Once they bump into each other, hehe, there will definitely be something good to watch."
"Do you understand if you borrow a knife to kill someone?"
"Maybe, you can't kill Wang Xuzhi, who has a great reputation and is protected by the luck of the court. There are people, um, ghosts who can do it for you."
In the Dayan Dynasty, unmarried women generally called themselves "little women"; married women generally called themselves "concubine" or "concubine"; both unmarried and married women could call themselves "nujia"; those who were more confident had higher status.
Young men usually call themselves "I" or "*someone", depending on their age and location.
There are different names for different positions: old man, old man, villain, niche, small key, poor man, humble, foolish brother, late student, junior scholar, latecomer, lower official, etc. Young men are respectfully called young masters; men who look like scholars are also called "gongzi".
You can call them "Xiangong". People who are familiar with each other and have a close relationship will also call each other "Bian".
