Chapter 124: Inheriting the West and Obtaining an Official!

"Ah..." Ying'er immediately realized that she had made a mistake, so she quickly covered her mouth with her hands.

Unfortunately, it still disturbed Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng was busy writing, and his thinking was at a critical point. Ying'er's scream suddenly pulled his thoughts back to reality.

He frowned and put down the pen in his hand, and said in a urn: "What's the matter?"

Ying'er's face was flushed, and her eyes glared fiercely outside the yard, saying, "It's all a few girls who are chewing at the verge of their tongues."

"Oh? When did our Ying'er become so cruel?" Lu Zheng said. He stood up with a smile, but no longer wanted to blame him.

Ying'er's expression became even more awkward. She thought about what Si Qi and the little girls said just now, and she was so embarrassed. She was the big girl next to Lu Zheng. According to the rules of wealthy families, Lu Zheng could take her into the room.

The eldest girl of Zhang Haoran of the Zhang family has been with her long ago, and even the girls in Zhang Tang and Zhang Zhen's room have been with her! But Ying'er is still the same as before, and Lu Zheng has not let her do that...

But in the eyes of outsiders, Ying'er has long become a person in Lu Zheng's room. Ying'er still remembers that the last time she went to Yushan, even her big grandmother Liu Wan thought so!

"These girls speak without any restraint, so they really should teach them a lesson!" Ying'er said in her heart. Her mood was very complicated at this time.

She was a little proud, a little disappointed, and she was full of longing and expectation for the future...

"What's the matter? It's so noisy outside?" Lu Zheng didn't know that Ying'er had so many entangled thoughts in his heart. He walked slowly to the window with his hands on his back.

"Today is the day when the second master returns to Yangzhou. The old lady sent a message, asking us to prepare to go to the dock to greet us! Moreover, Mr. Cui passed the message and asked you to go to the Xinchenghe dock, and it was almost done when you see it!" Ying'er said.

Lu Zheng frowned slightly, sighed lightly, and said, "The third generation of the Zhang family inherited their titles, known as the four great masters of Jiangnan, but he did not expect that he would have fallen to this level now.

Zhang Chengxi only made up for the lack of a county magistrate and created such a momentum. If one day someone in the Zhang family passed the Jinshi, what would it be like?"

Lu Zheng said to himself, but he was not entirely mocking the Zhang family. He lamented more about the rare opportunity of the Great Kang Dynasty. With such a prominent family as the Zhang family, it was an extraordinary joy to become a county magistrate in the west, which shows the preciousness of the officials.

When Lu Zheng thought of the article "Fan Jin passed the imperial examination" he had read, he thought it was ridiculous when he read the article. Now that he has personally experienced the Dakang Dynasty when he was admitted to the imperial examination, he really felt that the article was written too vividly.

Lu Zheng is now preparing for the Boy Test a few months later, but what he is thinking about is what happens after the Boy Test. The Boy Test is a scholar, a juren in the provincial examination, and a Jinshi exam. The difficulty coefficient of this step-by-step ladder is a hundred times more difficult than the university entrance exam on earth, and is even more difficult than taking a top-notch university.

Lu Zheng claimed that he was not a superman. If he really wanted to make a name for himself, he had no other way to go besides working hard!

"Ying'er, change my clothes and ask Sun San to prepare a carriage. I'll go to Xinchenghe Pier!" Lu Zheng suppressed all kinds of thoughts and was about to go out.

When Lu Zheng changed his clothes and rushed to Xinchenghe Wharf, there were already crowds of people on the wharf. It was snowing not long ago, and the ice and snow had not completely melted.

The wind on the pier was cold and cool, which really made people freeze directly. However, at this time, the pier was full of people, including the old lady of the Zhang family, and she was sitting in a chair.

Lu Zheng stood at the end, as low-key and inconspicuous as he usually did. Everyone in the Zhang family was now paying attention to the river, and no one paid attention to him.

He watched coldly and saw that Mrs. Su and Zhang Haoran were obviously different from before, especially Zhang Haoran. For a while, he was decadent and low-key. Once, Lu Zheng met him on the street of Xinchenghe, and the kid actually took a detour.

However, today, Zhang Haoran's aura came up again. He wore a brand new white Confucian uniform, a purple gold crown on his head, and a black leather warm ears. He held the stove in his hand, paced back and forth with a hot air, and looked up with his head held high and his chest. He could be said to be full of energy.

"Here, here!" Suddenly, he put the stove in his hand into the girl beside him, raised his hand and pointed it at the river.

Sure enough, a ship came from the river. Everyone's attention was focused on the big ship. Even Zhang's mother stood up, raised her eyes and looked at her, and said, "My old woman's eyes are dizzy and can't see clearly!"

Cui Da narrowed his eyes and looked at it for a while, and said, "This is not our ship. I'll take a seat, my ancestor."

Cui Da said that everyone's aura suddenly fell down again, and they were trembling with cold. It was fine for the masters to have a warm stove in their hands and were warm in their clothes. The followers and servants were really terrified, especially the servants who were standing on the dock in neat and thin robes as a ceremonial guard, and they were almost frozen into ice. Seeing their lips were blue and their bodies were trembling like sieves, where was the majestic appearance of the big family?

The old lady was so cold that she was still energetic. She looked around and said, "Stand up for me, what you see at the critical moment is your patience. Young people just need to be soothed. Once they are soothed, they can accomplish things when they do things.

If you are impetuous in your heart and do things, you may end up with something…”

The old lady was scolding her family. While she was talking, her eyes were surfing on her juniors. She looked back from the front one by one. Finally, her eyes fell on Lu Zheng, and his words suddenly stopped.

Lu Zheng is very patient and has no rude actions.

However, Zhang Jing had been impatient for a long time. He sneaked to Lu Zheng and grinned and said, "Brother Zheng, are you asking for trouble? On a cold day, why are you going to the dock to drink the northwest wind?"

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Second brother, aren't you here too?"

"Whoever thinks that is a bastard? Isn't that impossible? Hey, as I say, our ancestors are really confused. Our second uncle is just a county magistrate. An official who is younger than a seventh-rank sesame official, is it necessary to make such a big fuss?" Zhang Jing said.

Lu Zheng's expression remained unchanged and said, "Second brother, this is a great event, why is there no need? Do you know that after passing the Jinshi, you are only a seventh grade just now. As the saying goes, a tower of thousands of feet high rises, and the second uncle has embarked on the career path this time. This can be said to be a step to reach the sky and the future is limitless!"

"Bad! Zheng'er, are you bullying your second brother but not studying? My second uncle has no fame and fortune. His supervisor was donated by money. He got this official and could be a sucker. If he wanted to be promoted, it would be a dream!"

"To be honest, I don't think the second uncle can be the chief official. The county magistrate named Nie is a lame duck and is not favored by his colleagues. He recommends my second uncle. If he falls, can my second uncle still survive?"

Zhang Jing narrowed his little eyes and said it was very clear. The more he spoke, the louder he became, and afterwards, he became even more excited.

Lu Zheng narrowed his eyes and said, "Second brother, what you said really makes sense, but you can't tell me this matter. Why don't you look back and see, the second sister-in-law and the others are all looking at you, tell them?"

Zhang Jing's expression was instantly frozen, and at this moment he realized that there was silence around him. He immediately turned around and his expression immediately became extremely exciting.

Everyone's eyes fell on him, and Zhang's mother's mouth was still half open. Looking at the expression of the ancestor, her face turned green. The old man must have heard all Zhang Jing's words just now.

Zhang Jing was so scared that his legs were weak and he was about to kneel down. Lu Zheng stepped forward, pulled his sleeve, and said, "Here, I'm here, my second uncle has no way to go. He went directly to the county government office. He was rushing over from the county government office at this time!"

After Lu Zheng said that, he pointed to the direction of the Cross Street. Sure enough, he heard someone beating drums and drums on the other side of the Cross Street.

Zhang's mother didn't care about getting angry and got angry, and immediately called everyone to walk towards the cross street. Finally, Cui Da shouted in front of him and said:

"It's the second master! The second master is so majestic, he's sitting in the official sedan chair!"

Everyone came over and saw a group of people coming from the cross street. Two gongs in front, three gongs, six gongs followed by six archers, and four official sedans behind. The curtains were lifted up. Who was not Zhang Chengxi sitting in the sedan?

Judging from Zhang Chengxi's appearance, it is very different from before. Today, he is wearing an official crane refurbishment uniform and a red official hat. He looks majestic and special in spirit.

Especially in conjunction with the ceremonial war in front of us, the gongs sounded and the people on the streets avoided each other. This kind of pomp was particularly cool.

Zhang's mother was so excited that her hands were trembling, and she almost threw away the dragon head crutch. Cui Da shouted at Zhang Chengxi: "Second Master, the old lady is here to welcome you!"

When Cui Da shouted, Zhang Chengxi heard it in the sedan chair, and immediately raised his hand. The sedan chair stopped and the sound of the gong stopped. Zhang Chengxi got out of the sedan chair with the help of two soap officials.

He walked quickly to Zhang's mother. In front of everyone's eyes, he knelt on the ground with a "thump" and said, "Mother..."

You should know that at this time, there were a lot of people watching. Everyone looked at the excitement here. When everyone saw Zhang Chengxi kneeling down, they immediately started to make a fuss.

Zhang's mother was so scared that she quickly supported Zhang Chengxi, and she was so happy that she burst into tears. She suppressed the excitement in her heart and said, "Go home!"

She said these three words and seemed to have exhausted her strength. Zhang Chengxi quickly stood up and helped her. Fortunately, she was not far from the Zhang family here, so Zhang Chengxi helped Zhang's mother all the way to the Zhang family.
