Chapter 206 I'm Not Afraid!
Lu Zheng can be said to be intentional and unintentional about the Lu family's strategy. Lu Shanchang and Lu Qian never dreamed that Lu Zheng would use such a method in order not to be trapped in the Lu family.
Nie Yong can be said to have directed the situation step by step towards the direction arranged by Lu Zheng. When the final plan is revealed, even if Lu Shanchang and Lu Qian want to say something, they can't regret it.
At this time, news came from outside, and Lu Zheng was back!
"Lu Zheng is back!" This news quickly spread throughout the Lu family, and the Lu family was shocked. For a moment, this matter became the focus of everyone's attention.
Originally, Lu Zheng was just a young scholar, and he was just a concubine's son, so he would not attract much attention at all. The key to the problem lies in the family's rumors in recent days.
Some people say that many talented men who come to visit Lu Zheng every day come to visit Lu Zheng every day. Some people say that Lu Zheng’s incident alarmed the old man, who was very angry at Hong Shen’s ineffective work.
Today, there is Lu Zheng's teacher, the popular county magistrate of Yingtian, who is here in person. The old man is grandly entertained, and a small sixth-rank official, accompanied by the old man himself. He clearly looks at Lu Zheng very much!
Because all these news gathered together, Lu Zheng suddenly returned home to everyone's surprise. Who in the Lu family can not pay attention?
The old man’s yard hasn’t been so lively for a long time, and many people have come over here. Everyone wants to see what Lu Zheng looks like!
Finally, under the attention of everyone, Lu Zheng came. He followed the housekeeper Hong Shen, and the ones walking in the front were Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Shang in the third room and Mrs. Chen in the fourth room.
Except for Lu Jun, the third generation of the Lu family, who had sneaked away, almost everyone was there, and everyone looked at Lu Zheng with a very curious look.
To be honest, although they are both Lu family members, they are really not familiar with Lu Zheng. In the second house, everyone habitually knows Lu Jun, and the girl only knows Lu Yayun. Who knows Lu Zheng? He has heard of his name before, but it is almost all negative news. It is generally said that this son is stupid and ugly, and his second aunt doesn't even let him in the school.
In the past year, the name Lu Zheng has disappeared from the Lu family. Everyone almost forgot this name. Now suddenly Lu Zheng has become popular.
It was said that it was over the past year that the second wife sent her to Yangzhou. Lu Zheng ended up in Yangzhou and got a little three-yuan trial. He shone in the Dragon Boat Festival in Yangzhou and made a top-notch masterpiece. Anyway, Lu Zheng's existence alarmed the old man, and then all kinds of magical rumors about Lu Zheng emerged.
The various rumors that followed were coming before Lu Zheng could digest them. Before Lu Zheng could digest them, he looked at his white clothes and his every move and demeanor. After careful look at his appearance, his facial features were clear and his eyebrows were beautiful. How could he be ugly? He was obviously a talented person.
In fact, it is not only his peers and subordinates who are concerned about Lu Zheng. As the parent, Lu Shanchang fell on him when he entered the door, and Lu Qian was even more so.
In such an occasion, he had a great aura, but Lu Zheng looked calm, calm and did not frighten at all. He followed Hong Shen and walked to Lu Shanchang and others.
Hong Shen moved aside and said, "Old Master, Brother Zheng has already brought it!"
Lu Zheng kowtowed and bowed in a regular manner, saying, "Lu Zheng pays homage to grandfather!" Lu Shanchang smiled and raised his hand gently and said, "Okay, get up!"
Lu Zheng stood up, then knelt in front of Lu Qian, and said, "Lu Zheng pays homage to his father!"
For Lu Zheng, he is very unfamiliar with Lu Shanchang or Lu Qian.
According to common sense, Lu Zheng felt a little resentful, but at this time, Lu Zheng's face showed no emotion. He was extremely respectful and meticulous. Even Lu Qian, who had always had extremely strict requirements on his children, could not find any fault.
He stared at Lu Zheng for a long time, and finally said lightly: "Get up, why don't you pay homage to the teacher?"
Lu Zheng stood up and then paid homage to Nie Yong. Compared to Lu Shanchang and Lu Qian's reserve, Nie Yong was much more enthusiastic. Lu Zheng knelt down, Nie Yong hurriedly came up, helped him up with a smile on his face and said:
"Brother Zheng, get up quickly, get up quickly, haha, as soon as you and my master and apprentice, I will expect you to come back soon. Now I have really come to my mind!
You said that today I came to visit your house, what did you tell your grandfather and father? I want to bring you to Yingtian, would you like to go with me?"
Lu Zheng was slightly stunned and said, "Teacher, you don't dislike the stupidity of the students. I feel particularly excited. It is of course great to be able to study by the teacher all the time. However, I just returned home and my parents and brothers were unable to get close to me, so I left home again. This is really inappropriate. Otherwise, the teacher, can I take some time off and go to Yingtian to listen to the teacher's teachings after I live in Jiangning for some time. I wonder what the teacher thinks?"
"Pediatric!" Nie Yong said erectly: "You are at your age and need to study hard. The Lu family is a top family in Jiangnan. As the son of the Lu family, how can you stick to stupid filial piety and stupid filial piety? You have already obtained a small three-yuan family in Yangzhou. This is great filial piety. If you can work hard again, you will be able to pass the high school entrance examination next year, and you will be even more filial. Don't you understand this principle?"
Nie Yong's tone was stern, as if he was a strict teacher. He stared at Lu Zheng and said, "I will come here to visit your grandfather and father today, and you will be trusted by your grandfather. From today on, you will need to follow me and work hard. Next year, you will be eligible for the autumn examination. If you cannot be a judge, I will resign and retire, and you and I will no longer have the friendship of master and disciple. Do you understand?"
After Nie Yong said these words, everyone around him became dissatisfied. Nie Yong was a teacher for Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng failed the imperial examination, but as a teacher, he actually resigned from his post and retired. This is really ruthless!
Originally, Lu Shanchang and Lu Qian were still a little confused. They wanted to say a few words to Lu Zheng and leave Lu Zheng in Jiangning for a while, but when they heard Nie Yong say this, how could they dare to say anything?
As the saying goes, strict teachers produce high disciples. Nie Yong is indeed strict enough, not only strict but also extremely serious. In order to teach Lu Zheng well, he actually suppressed his career.
If there are so many children of the Lu family, who can be lucky enough to visit a teacher like Nie Yong? Only Lu Zheng has such honor. No wonder Lu Zheng can achieve such achievements in Yangzhou, and a strict teacher will produce a high disciple!
Nothing was unexpected. However, Nie Yong's words were particularly touched by Lu Zheng's "script" yesterday. Although Lu Zheng had many teachers in Yangzhou, Nie Yong had never really guided Lu Zheng's knowledge.
Nie Yong can trust him so much and value him, which is really precious to Lu Zheng now.
In the crowd, Qi Qiuyue saw this scene in her eyes, her eyes were red, but her mouth was wide open. She was so proud that she had worked hard for more than ten years to protect Lu Zheng. Today, Lu Zheng finally grew up. Look at the scene today, all three generations of the Lu family are here, but Lu Zheng is the only protagonist.
Next, Lu Zheng met two uncles from the third and fourth rooms one by one, as well as all the aunts, aunts, brothers of the same generation, etc.
He had just returned to Jiangning, but he was about to go to Yingtian. He didn't stay in the Lu family for a moment, and many people were stunned when they saw this scene.
Especially Hong Shen and Xu Da. Xu Da was beaten today and was thinking about getting the place back! Now Lu Zheng doesn’t stay at home for a moment, where can he go to get the place back?
The crazy one was Mrs. Zhang. She was very scheming and endured for a day today, just waiting for the right time to burst out and give Lu Zheng a fatal blow.
But now, Lu Zheng's feet were not touching the ground, and after sweeping her face, he left immediately. How could she swallow this tone?
Therefore, the scene is extremely strange, Lu Zheng's expression is becoming more and more calm and happy, while some people's faces are becoming more and more ugly...
"Wait a minute!" Mrs. Zhang suddenly walked out of the crowd, "Brother Zheng, you are serious and hardworking for your studies, which is good! However, as the saying goes, the state has national laws and family rules. If you go home today, even if the evil slaves hurt others, this matter cannot be easily exposed. Xu Da, what are you talking about?"
Xu Da had a bruised nose and swollen face, almost rolling out from the side. What a clever person he was? When he saw Mrs. Zhang helping to stand out, how could he not understand the value of opportunity?
Immediately, he knelt directly in front of the old man and said with a sad face: "Old man, second man, all masters, you must be the master of the slave..."
Xu Da paused his head and said what happened today. Naturally, he would not say that he deliberately made things difficult for Lu Zheng, but instead focused on Lu Zheng's arrogance and Qi Biao's arrogance.
Qi Biao was indeed acting recklessly today. Xu Da never dreamed that Qi Biao was so brave. Usually, Xu Da was the only one who bullied others. Today he met Qi Biao. Qi Biao beat him without saying a word, which made him terrified. If he hadn't escaped quickly, he might have been beaten to death on the spot.
Therefore, Xu Da was really resentful, so he described the process with confidence, as if he had suffered a huge grievance.
"Rareless!" Lu Qian suddenly stood up, "Is it really going against the will?"
There is a word "Qian" in Lu Qian's name. He is indeed a gentleman in the outside world, but at home, he is on the other hand to his children, just the word "Liang". Even if Lu Zheng has the ability, he will hurt others and be a playboy, how can he do it?
He was furious, staring at Lu Zheng like a knife, and said, "Lu Zheng, what your Uncle Xu said is true? What do you have to say?"
Lu Zheng knelt down respectfully and said, "Every word and sentence that Uncle Xu said is true!"
"Wow!" Lu Zheng said this, and the audience was in a big uproar. Is Lu Zheng trying to commit suicide? Everyone felt that there must be a reason behind this, because the relationship between Lu Zheng and Mrs. Zhang is not a secret in the Lu family. Xu Da is Mrs. Zhang's confidant. It must be that this old boy made small moves first, otherwise why would Lu Zheng ask Qi Biao to beat him?
Even Lu Qian was mentally prepared for this. The reason why he asked Lu Zheng to speak was to give Lu Zheng a chance to defend himself!
