Chapter 38: Regret, the bamboo tube is full again

The words outside the door made Chen Wu's question choke in his throat. After waiting for a quarter of an hour, he looked at the several legalist books and legal texts newly placed on the table. His expression was already a little dull, and he felt that there was something strange in the world. Nothing could be further from this.

The Zhang Mansion held a banquet, but before the dinner started, groups of servants including the Zhang Mansion came to the Chen Mansion to deliver reference books to Chen Zhi, fearing that no one would believe them.

Unexpectedly, this is not the end. In the next hour, the Chen Mansion Bookstore has not stopped. This family left and then another family came. The Liu family, Wang family, etc., are some of the most famous big families in Pengcheng County. , almost all of them sent people over, and they all directly asked to see Chen Zhi by name, either to send books or to build relationships.

This formation even alarmed Chen Chi.

These people are said to be servants, but they are all under the orders of the elders in the family. The age, status, and seniority of those elders are so great that even Chen Chi cannot neglect them. When more people come, of course he will not be able to sit firmly in the backyard. He simply went to Shuge to receive the servant, and at the same time sent someone to inquire about the news.

"What kind of luck did Master Zhi get? So many big shots know his name!"

"It's incredible, it's incredible now. Just watch, this young master's fortune is about to turn around."

"I have some gossip, do you know it? Master Zhi is famous because of his excellent calligraphy!"

"Really or not? I have never seen this young master practice calligraphy, nor have I seen any of his calligraphy works being circulated in the house!"

"It's true. You probably don't know it. Not long ago, Young Master Zhi helped the Elder Master transcribe "Hua Yuan Ge Lun". …”

Following Chen Chi's move, the entire Chen Mansion suddenly became lively, as if a stone had been thrown into the calm lake, causing ripples. Many servants, servants, and maids were discussing it. Anyone who knew a little bit about the inside story would He was surrounded by stars and asked repeatedly.

I don't know how many servants, after this incident, realized that Chen Zhi's status in the mansion would change, and had other thoughts.

"If Master Zhi really rises, it will be a good opportunity. His family is extremely short of people."

"If I can keep up with Young Master Zhi, he will be a confidant at least. Do I have to go talk to Chen Wu?"

"I have to find an opportunity to get in touch with Master Zhi's people. Chen Fu has been walking around the house a lot recently. This may be a breakthrough. I used to have a good relationship with him. In the past two years, Master Zhi's situation has been bad and he has become a bit unfamiliar. We need to find a chance to talk about the past."

"The world is changing so fast. A few days ago, some people said that Chen Wu drew a low-quality lot. Who would have thought that it would become a top-notch lot in the blink of an eye..."

Competition for servants from wealthy families is fierce, and there are many losers and frustrated ones among them. It is difficult for such people to stand up in the huge feudal clan system, but joining a promising master is the only way.

Because of this, as soon as Chen Zhi started to improve, many servants and servants started to make plans, but one of them was extremely regretful!

"How could this happen? Suddenly, Master Zhi's situation has changed. I...I am the first person in the family who thinks highly of him, but because of a single thought, now I am not even as good as a book boy?"

Except for Chen Jue, no one else has such regretful thoughts.

Chen Jue also had extraordinary vision. When Chen Zhi's house was burned down, he followed him there. When he saw Chen Zhi commanding Ruoding, he became interested in getting closer. Later, when he heard about "Hua Yuan Ge Lun", he even wanted to get closer. Unfortunately, he was not able to get close to him for a while. Don't check, because of Shulinzhai's rules and regulations, there was a back and forth, so I decided to wait and see first, and not rush to place a bet.

From Chen Jue's point of view, it's just a matter of waiting and watching. There won't be much of a problem. There is plenty of time to consider and examine the young master Chen Zhi.

Unexpectedly, the situation suddenly changed, and the seemingly childish rules of Shulinzhai did not affect Chen Zhi at all, and eventually became what he is today. Naturally, Chen Jue felt inexplicable regrets, feeling that he had lost his greatest advantage, and regretted it.

"One step is slow, every step is slow, but I still have an advantage over others, and I will try my best to make up for it!"

Thinking like this, the Chen family servant turned his attention to the book pavilion.At this moment, I don't know how many people in the Chen family have focused their attention here, waiting for the movement inside, looking for opportunities to show their courtesy.

In the bookstore, it is another scene.

"Since the elders value you, you can't let them down. You must read and study hard, and you must not lose the reputation of the Chen family."

The head of the Chen family, Chen Chi, was earnestly giving instructions, while Chen Zhi opposite him nodded in agreement.

After saying a few words, Chen Chi didn't know what to say. Today's incident was beyond his expectation. The impact was too great. It was difficult for him, the head of the family, to intervene. Otherwise, if he was not careful, several families would be involved. Trouble, I am even more undecided about Chen Zhi who caused all this.

Reprimanding, that definitely won’t work. Others give you things to make friends with, so why do you reprimand?
Praising him is not good, because once word spread that Chen Chi was worrying about calligraphy, Chen Zhi benefited. As the head of the family, he would have more troubles in the future. Relatives, friends, superiors and subordinates would come over during the holidays. , I want to ask for two words, do you agree?You agreed, but the person who wrote it was not you, and you still have to ask Chen Zhi for help.

In this way, what is Chen Zhi's status in the Chen family?Who wants from whom?

Chen Chi lacked courage in many things, but he still had good vision and could see the crux of the problem. Therefore, he looked at Chen Zhi with mixed emotions. The old thoughts left first.

After seeing Chen Chi off, Chen Zhi returned to the library, thinking in his mind: "Chen Chi is a sensible person, he is just in trouble, but he will make the right choice in the end. My life in the Chen family is probably better, now It will take a few days to get all the people who want to cause trouble to jump out, otherwise there will be no excuse to take action in the future. Also, if these elders show their kindness, you must also give them face, write something and send it over, and reciprocate the courtesy."

"Master Zhi, please review slowly. I won't disturb you if you are young." Beside, the concierge with a flattering smile said, carefully closing the door with a respectful look, which was in sharp contrast to his initial attitude. .

But Chen Wu didn't feel anything was wrong at all. Servants and servants from the Zhang family, Peng family, Liu family and other big families were already here. They all followed the order of the Grand Duke of the family and lent books to Chen Zhi, even if Chen Wu didn't see him. After going through such a battle, we can also see the atmosphere of friendship and friendship.

Even the head of the family, Chen Chi, couldn't take it lightly, let alone a concierge who had to straighten his position.

But the question is, why would these big shots send people to find Chen Zhi by name and want to befriend him?

"Is it really like what the young master said? Because his reputation has spread, he sits at home behind closed doors and his reputation comes from heaven? This doesn't make sense. Who helped him spread his reputation?"

Chen Hua's words were still lingering in his ears, which made Chen Wu puzzled. After much thought, he still couldn't figure it out. He was a bachelor, so he simply didn't think about it.

"Anyway, it's a good thing. The young master's reputation has spread, and his status in the clan has been rising. I have also risen with the tide. It couldn't be better. Chen Hua and Chen Shu are showing off that they have followed a good master, but the good news is yet to come. , I want to see what expressions they will have when they know what happened today, ha!"

Thinking of this, Chen Wu's thoughts changed completely. The unwillingness he felt due to being assigned to Chen Zhi disappeared, replaced by ambition and an indescribable feeling of honor.

Before in Shulinzhai, he knew the rules of ghostwriting and secretly sighed at Chen Zhi's absurdity. However, because of Mr. Qinghu's request for writing, he changed his mind and became more respectful. However, he still had doubts in his heart. Now his doubts are gone. Although It's not yet loyal, but I finally have a sense of belonging and expectation.

Chen Zhi was slightly aware of the little book boy's psychological changes, but said nothing. While sorting out more than 20 legalist and law books, he felt the changes in the lotus tube.

On the bamboo tube, one of the five-element scale grids is already full, and the second grid also has a thin layer.

"Okay, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed."
