Girl, there's something wrong with you
Chapter 217 The Way of a Dog
"Stop arguing." Cheng Jinyang put the mask on Xiao Wangshu and pushed her to the bathroom. "Hurry up and brush your teeth. Your mouth is full of stench."
Then he turned around and said to Cui Xiaoniang, who was weeping and weak on the bed:
"Be more serious. I have guests coming today. Don't give me any trouble. Otherwise, I will drive you back to the Cui clan."
"A guest is visiting, who is it?" Cui Xiaoniang immediately became curious.
"People from the Fan Yang Lu family." Cheng Jinyang replied.
I guess I came here for that plan. It would be good to get to know my teammates in advance.
"Oh, I know people from the Fan Yang Lu family!" Cui Jinqi said with a smile, "Our Cui and Lu families have a good relationship, how about it? Do you want me to help you say a few good words in front of the Lu family?"
"You should wait until someone arrives first." Cheng Jinyang was noncommittal.
In the afternoon, there were indeed guests visiting the clan gate. It was said that they were a boy and a girl, a brother and a sister. They reported that they were from the Lu family of Fanyang.
Cheng Yuexian and Cheng Huaiyan went out to greet them, while Cui Jinqi and Cheng Jinyang secretly hid in the shadows behind the porch and glanced in the direction of the passers-by.
"I know you." She turned around and smiled brightly, "Now I'll give you another chance and ask me to put in a good word for you."
"No need." Cheng Jinyang said.
"Then don't regret it." Cui Jinqi walked out and waved to the brother and sister, "Qing Yun!"
The girl who walked over from the opposite side lit up:
"Jinqi? Why are you here?"
The two girls ran together, held each other's hands, and talked happily. It was hard to tell whether they were really on good terms or just making fun of each other.
Brother Lu next to him frowned and asked:
"Cui Jinqi, is she also your guest?"
"The patriarch's friend." Cheng Huaiyan replied.
"You clan leader really makes a lot of friends." The other party sneered.
Cheng Huaiyan remained silent, knowing that this was Lu Zhongyou, the son of the fourth elder of the Lu family. People in the circle said he was "impatient" and a young man who was not easy to get along with.
As for his sister Lu Qingyun, she is praised as "quiet and elegant".
It's just that in today's world, families only judge the value of their children based on their abilities and potential, not their character. Lu Zhongyou's bloodline talent is guaranteed to be at the fourth level, and has a more than ten percent chance of reaching the third level, while Lu Qingyun's bloodline talent is guaranteed to be at the fourth level, and has no chance of reaching the third level.
Just the extra ten percent probability caused Lu Zhongyou's status in the clan to be much higher than Lu Qingyun's. Rumor has it that Lu Zhongyou himself looks down on his own sister, but Lu Qingyun has a good personality, so the relationship between brother and sister is relatively harmonious.
"Now that you're here, let's bring your clan leader out to meet him." Lu Zhongyou said proudly, putting his hands behind his back.
Cheng Jinyang:………………
No wonder Cui Jinqi asked me, "Would you like to help me say a nice word?" This little brother from the Lu family looked like the type who would find trouble for no reason! I always feel that if I go out like this, I will definitely be exposed to a lot of ridicule and ridicule from the other party.
However, after thinking about it, this is the land of my Cheng clan after all. I can still get slapped in the face during a home game. Do I, the leader of the Cheng clan, not want to lose face?
So he showed up and walked towards the Lu brothers and sisters.
Seeing Cheng Jinyang walking over, Cui Jinqi looked like she was in for a good show; Lu Qingyun smiled at the side, her eyes seeming to wander on Cheng Jinyang and Cui Jinqi, secretly guessing the relationship between them.
His eyes quickly swept over the two brothers and sisters, and Cheng Jinyang also had a general impression of the two of them: Lu Zhongyou stood with his hands behind his hands, his chin raised high, which was obviously the rebellious attitude of a young man. Rather than looking down on himself, it's better to say that a guy with this kind of personality simply looks down on anyone except himself.
Lu Qingyun's appearance was so beautiful that he couldn't help but glance at her a few more times. This girl is about the same age as Cui Jinqi. She has shoulder-length short hair. Her facial features are very soft and graceful. At first glance, she is a very gentle and delicate cute girl.
"Are you Cheng Jinyang?" Lu Zhongyou asked arrogantly, his chin still slightly raised. If he was taller, he could only speak to people with his nostrils.
"Yes." Cheng Jinyang smiled, bowed and said loudly, "I have met Brother Zhongyou."
Lu Zhongyou is slightly older than him (20 years old), and they are of the same generation, so according to the etiquette of the aristocratic family, he needs to salute first, and then the other party returns the salute.
However, before he could bow, Lawrence Lu sneered:
"My qualifications are mediocre and my temperament is dull. I, a member of the Lu family, will not bow to waste."
"I, Cheng's tutor, am just the opposite." Cheng Jinyang's face did not change when he heard this, and he made a bow to the end.
Pfft, the two girls next to them couldn't hold it back immediately.
Lu Qingyun first laughed, and then forcibly stopped laughing. His eyes were a little angry and unhappy. Because Cheng Jinyang's words just now not only ridiculed Lu Zhongyou as a "waste", but also criticized Lu's tutor.
As for Cui Jinqi, she didn't have so many worries. She laughed so hard that she burst into tears:
"Qing Yun, look, I just said he is not an honest person. He made your brother angry."
Lu Zhongyou also understood the other party's subtext, and was so angry that he clenched his fists. He subconsciously wanted to beat the other party angrily. However, considering that his sister, Miss Cui, and the children of the Cheng family were all nearby, it was not easy to do it in public. He lost his grace in his actions and made people laugh, so he could only wave his sleeves angrily and said angrily:
"What a sharp-toothed mouth! It's a pity that the barking puppy has too much guts!"
Inner cowardice means inner cowardice. In layman's terms, this sentence means "a barking dog never bites", and satirizing Cheng Jinyang is just rhetorical.
"Brother Lu taught me this." Cheng Jinyang looked ashamed to be taught, "I really don't know the way of being a dog. Now that I heard Brother Lu explain it, I suddenly became enlightened."
So Lu Qingyun couldn't hold it in any longer, and immediately laughed so hard that she was out of breath. Cui Xiaoniang next to her even felt her stomach hurt from laughing, so she could only press her belly and get up.
"You!" After being embarrassed twice in a row, Lu Zhongyou finally couldn't hold it anymore. He raised his hand and was about to strike with a "destructive death ray", beating this guy who dared to offend the majesty of the Lu family into a scumbag.
However, Lu Qingyun quickly grabbed his arm and forcibly stopped his ability. Then he suppressed his smile and said seriously:
"Cheng Jinyang, I, the Lu family, are visiting your Cheng clan this time. Is this how you treat guests? It's really eye-opening."
"Young lady, you are joking." Cheng Jinyang also said sternly, "I, Mr. Cheng, treat guests in just eight words: repay kindness with kindness."
He said "eight words", and the first half of the sentence was "repay kindness with kindness". Lu Qingyun immediately understood and asked with narrowed eyes:
"The second half of the sentence is 'repaying grievance with grievance'?"
"No, it's 'courtesy first, then soldiers'." Cheng Jinyang said with a smile, "Repay kindness with kindness, be polite before soldiers, that's all."
Lu Qingyun was speechless after hearing this.
To repay a grievance with a grievance and a tooth for a tooth may sound refreshing, but aristocratic families are all about etiquette. This kind of willful chivalry is considered "the way of ordinary people in the market". It is okay to do it, but it will make you feel inferior if you say it. .
As for the courtesy first and then the soldiers, it is upright and upright, which leaves people speechless. When Cheng Jinyang met and saluted before, he had indeed done enough etiquette. On the contrary, Lu Zhongyou wanted to hurt the other person's face with just a few words. How could it be justified... Thinking of this, Lu Qingyun sighed quietly and stopped talking.
"Be courteous before fighting?" Lu Zhongyou smiled coldly, then put away his anger and said indifferently, "Although it is not as good as Confucius' 'repaying resentment with directness', it still has the meaning of a military strategist using force to suppress others. Good! You are worthy of being a military family."
He had suffered two defeats in a row and was unable to step down. However, his sister Lu Qingyun questioned the other party first, and the other party responded in a neither humble nor overbearing manner. The two people's questions and answers relieved the tense atmosphere that was about to break out. He took the opportunity to use the donkey on the slope to brush off the embarrassing matter. It can be seen that This Lu Zhongyou just has a frivolous personality, but he is not completely brainless.
When Cheng Jinyang saw that he was not stalking him and was pretending to be flattering in disguise, he naturally gave up and waved his hand:
"This way, you two, please."
The Lu brothers and sisters walked forward, while Cui Jinqi followed from behind, came to Cheng Jinyang's side, and asked quietly:
"When did you become so talkative?"
"A joke." Cheng Jinyang imitated Lu Zhongyou's arrogant look with his chin raised, and said, "Do you think I, the leader of the Cheng clan, am a fool?"
My eyes are still a little red and swollen today, but I can already open them. It is estimated that the pupil power will be fully restored in a few days. I'm sorry for worrying everyone.
