Chapter 74 Guan Family
"Why, wasn't it possible to enter Immortal Sect as long as it was ranked as top grade?"
Even though he has always been a little afraid of True Person Zhang, Seventh Young Master still couldn't help but complain.
Zheng Fa understands his anxiety very well, looking at it from the perspective of Seventh Young Master:
You are a bad student with poor grades. For a big exam, you have a headache and a thorn in your butt. You are obsessed with studying and studying hard, just to pass the exam with a score of 60%.
As a result, the invigilator walked into the examination room and announced that the examination rules had changed. This examination does not depend on the scores on the paper, but on the ranking. Except for the top ten, everyone behind will fail...
Anyone else would be bombed.
Senior Sister Zhang also shook his head and said, "This time, because Lineage who participated in Immortal Selection Fair are afraid of another change in the future, they put all the good seedlings at home in. Not only are there many people participating in Immortal Selection Fair, but the quality is also the best. If we continue to follow the fixed order, I am afraid there will be many people entering Immortal Sect this time."
"Isn't it bad to have too many?"
Seventh Young Master asked blankly.
"For you, of course, for those disciples who have entered Immortal Sect..." Senior Sister Zhang looked at Zheng Fa with a meaningful look. "You are here to grab food."
"Even though everyone who participated in Immortal Selection Fair has Golden Core True Person or Nascent Soul True Person behind them, this time the bottom disciples of the Hundred Immortals Alliance were so popular that they made the restriction on quotas."
"How many places are there?"
"Each sect is different, but Talisman Dao, Nine Mountains Sect will be stricter, and Azure Wood Sect... they are good at refining medicine, Talisman Dao's requirements are not that high." Senior Sister Zhang looked at Seventh Young Master and said, seeming to comfort him.
Seventh Young Master breathed a sigh of relief. What he took was Azure Wood Sect's Immortal Selection Token.
Zheng Fa understands what Senior Sister Zhang means.
Nine Mountains Sect Talisman Arts is the first major in the Hundred Immortals Alliance. Those who study Talisman Dao are also willing to enter Nine Mountains Sect. Naturally, the admission requirements are high.
Azure Wood Sect Talisman Arts is weak and has little competition, so Seventh Young Master has great hopes.
On the way back to his new yard, Zheng Fa met two acquaintances whom he had not seen for a long time - Huang Yu and his father, the somewhat chubby Steward Huang.
Behind the two of them was a cart filled with food, bedding and sundries.
The big and small bags looked like they were about to move.
"Brother Huang?" Zheng Fa looked at the two people in surprise. It seemed that these two people were waiting for him here.
"Master Zheng..."
Huang Yu raised his hand and said a little awkwardly.
Steward Huang on the side also smiled and saluted, the smile on his face was more flattering than the previous enthusiasm.
"What are you..."
He looked at the two people and then at the cart behind them.
Huang Yu blushed and seemed embarrassed to speak.
Steward Huang patted his son on the back of the head and said, "My son wants to take refuge with you!"
"Ah?" Zheng Fa I didn't expect this to happen. "Take refuge in me?"
"Yes, my son heard that you got Immortal Selection Token, sir, and went out to live in a courtyard alone. He has been thinking about being a Guan Family for you!"
Steward Huang said with a smile.
Zheng Fa looked at the expressions of the two people and found that Huang Yu's face was not so clear, and he also had a clear understanding in his heart - this was probably Steward Huang's idea.
"Uncle..."
"No way!" Steward Huang quickly waved his hands and said, "I don't dare to call you uncle."
Seeing his frightened look, Zheng Fa could only skip the address and said, "If Brother Huang is really willing to come to my place, I will welcome him, that is..."
Steward Huang probably found out clearly.
Zheng Family really needs a male Guan Family.
Especially if Zheng Fa left Jing Prefecture, then even with the Zhao Family's protection, he would really not worry about letting his mother and sister live alone.
If Huang Yu is willing to do it at Zheng Fa's house, it can be said to solve some of Zheng Fa's hidden worries.
"He is willing! Ask yourself, do you want to do it with the Zheng Family?" Steward Huang slapped his son on the back of the head, and then Huang Yu said dullly, "Yes!"
Zheng Fa saw that although he looked a little embarrassed, he didn't show much reluctance. He nodded and reminded, "We are from a small family, but we can't afford a high monthly salary."
"It doesn't matter if you give me money or not!" Steward Huang said with a smile, "I have packed the car with everything he needs to eat and use! It's enough for him to live for a year!"
Zheng Fa looked at the carts piled high behind the two people and felt a little shocked - bringing your own dry food to work, what a noble sentiment.
Even in modern times, it would make those black-hearted capitalists cry.
Steward Huang said to Zheng Fa, "I don't want to hide it from you, sir. This boy has such a wild temper that he can't stay on the farm, and I'm afraid he won't have the right mind to do things on Zhao Residence. I know that you are a good person, and I know him well, so I shamelessly came to ask for a way out."
"My son is a clumsy-tongued man with a weak mind. His only advantage is that he is honest. I'm not afraid that the young master will dislike you. To tell you the truth, if you want a well-rounded butler, he can't do it. But if you want him to guard the house and protect his wife and young lady, he dares to fight tooth and nail."
Zheng Fa couldn't help but nod, Steward Huang is really a good person, the person he needs really doesn't need to run Zheng Family well, reliability is the most important thing.
"That Brother Huang's body contract..."
"Young master, you are so proud!" Steward Huang said with a smile, "I asked someone to ask the madam what she meant. As soon as she heard that she was going to be Guan Family for you, she gave us the deed without saying a word."
"Okay, I have to give you this month's money... So, can you give me one tael of silver a month?"
"That's the young master's flattery!"
One tael of silver per month is too little for Zhao Residence's Steward Wu Steward Gao. This price is equivalent to an insult.
But for an inexperienced person like Huang Yu, it is a bit high - this is also Zheng Fa trying to buy his loyalty. If he really doesn't give money, there may be no resentment in the short term, but as time goes by, who wouldn't feel aggrieved?
Being too far away from home, Zheng Fa is willing to spend some money to buy peace of mind.
Zheng Family's new courtyard is a courtyard with two entrances. Mother Zheng and his little sister both live in the backyard.
Huang Yu and his son moved their things to the front yard. From now on, Huang Yu will also live next to the concierge in the front yard, almost as a gatekeeper.
After putting the things away, Huang Yu sent his father out of the city.
Steward Huang looked at his son's unhappy expression and said calmly, "Why, do you think it's wrong to be this Guan Family?"
"No, I just feel awkward... Last time we met, we were still brothers."
"Are you stupid? Didn't you see that Zheng Fa is going to Ascension Gate soon? In the future, you may be more glorious than Zhao Family and Steward Wu now, but no more valuable than a friend's false reputation?"
"... Then my relationship with Zheng Fa was not bad before, right?"
"Do you know what you have to do first if you want a chicken or a dog to ascend to heaven?"
"Ah?"
"You have to be a chicken and a dog first!" Steward Huang patted his son on the head angrily. "If you hadn't met Zheng Fa first, would this Guan Family position be yours?"
Huang Yu Hearing that something was wrong, he looked up at his father.
"If dad had known him earlier, he would have done it himself!"
Huang Yu was silent, then heard his father continue to say, "Zheng Fa has an easy temper and a bright future. Even if you don't get rich, you can still have a stable life... Dad has no ability. I can only find this good way out for you by asking around, so work hard."
"Yes."
"Brother, you are going to be an immortal. Our family has our own Guan Family!" the younger sister Zheng Shan said excitedly.
Zheng Fa, on the other hand, looked calm. "These things are all false."
Whether it's this yard, Senior Sister Zhang, Huang Yu, or even my wife's goodwill—all come from loans.
If Immortal Selection Fair he fails to Ascension Gate, then I'm afraid all these things will be gone from him.
"Mom said so too..." the younger sister said suddenly.
"Huh?"
"My mother said that life is good now, but she is afraid that you are too tired, brother." The younger sister frowned and said, "Brother, are you tired?"
She held Zheng Fa's index finger with both hands, raised her head and looked at her brother. "If you are tired, don't be a fairy. In fact, pigweed leaves are quite delicious!"
When she said this, the little girl had a heroic expression on her face.
