Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 31: The heart is like a mirror
Ji Ziqian left.
Come with glory and leave with disgrace.
But the anger from Mrs. Wei has just begun.
Sitting high in the hall, Zheng Shufeng looked at a group of servants with cold eyes and said in a cold tone: "Tell me, who instigated the young master to deal with his own cousin?"
Although in front of Wei Lanxin, Zheng Shufeng said that she also intended to let Ji Ziqian share the chores, which was not a lie, but her own arrangements and those of her servants were two completely different things.
If she makes the arrangements, she will definitely communicate with the Ji family first, and many things can be forgiven. If the servants make their own decisions, then it is really bullying.
At this moment she asked, everyone was trembling and did not dare to reply. Only Wei Tianchong raised his neck and said: "It's my own intention. Since you are here to be my servant..."
"Don't do this to me!" Zheng Shufeng slapped the back of the chair: "Ji Ziqian is also your cousin after all. If it weren't for the instigation of these servants, would you be able to deal with him when you are full?"
As she spoke, she swept away everyone in the hall and hummed: "Don't think that I don't know what you people think. Do you all regard Puxue as meat in your own bowl? Someone is coming. If your job is taken away, you will naturally have to fight hard... But this is the Wei family's quota, not yours!"
When Zheng Shufeng shouted these words, the servants lowered their heads even further. Even Tang Jie did not dare to speak at this juncture.
She's right.
This is the wealth of the Wei family. Whoever the Wei family wants to give it to is all the Wei family's own business.
I gave it to you, you have to be grateful!
If I don’t give it to you, don’t complain!
However, the greed in people's hearts always makes them ignore all this. They try every possible means to get things that do not belong to them, and even regard them as taboos.
Thinking of this, Tang Jie couldn't help but sigh.
Brother Xu, you are right, my bottom line as a human being is a bit low after all.
That's all, that's all, this opportunity to cultivate immortality is now not only related to his dream, but also related to Xu Muyang's blood feud!
In order to avenge Xu Muyang, even if he wiped out his conscience, he still had to do it. At worst, if he succeeds in the future, he would just do better to the Wei family.
Although I, Tang Jie, have a low bottom line, I still have a bottom line after all. Those who are kind to me will definitely repay me.
Tang Jie thought secretly.
Zheng Shufeng in the hall was still yelling and scolding: "Tell me, who gave you the idea?"
Wei Tianchong stiffened his neck and did not answer.
Although this brat has many faults, one good thing is that he is very loyal. After all, the era he lives in is an era that values commitment and trust.
In this world, "old people" can live a happy life by being shameless, but if they dare to do this in this era, once their reputation spreads, even people they don't know who pass by will spit on them.
As a world of Xianxia where individual strength can surpass thousands of armies, when ordinary force can no longer restrain these powerful non-human beings, reputation becomes the only constraint.
For this reason, the education system that has existed for thousands of years has always attached great importance to name and meaning, so that even a person as powerful as the Immortal Stage Realm would not be willing to be infamous for all eternity.
Of course, there are exceptions to individual perverts.
For this reason, even storytellers on weekdays will talk a lot about loyalty in the world, honoring promises and keeping promises, and doing everything for friends. Wei Tianchong lives in such an era. The word loyalty It was deeply rooted in his bones, so no matter how much Zheng Shufeng scolded him, he just refused to speak.
It’s a pity that Zheng Shufeng is so shrewd. He snorted and said: "Do you think I can’t guess it if you don’t tell me? Who will have the greatest impact on Ziqian’s enrollment? Isn’t it those **** who thought they might succeed? Something? Shi Meng, Shi Mo, Tang Jie, Baoliang, you four, come out!"
Four boys stood up at the same time, Zheng Shufeng's sharp eyes swept around the heads of the four, and finally fell on Shi Mo's head, saying: "Shi Mo, tell me, did you instigate this matter? ”
Shi Mo was shocked, knowing that he could not hide it from his wife after all, so he could only bite the bullet and step forward: "Madam, it is indeed my idea to let the young master teach the young master of the Ji family, but I just suggested it to the young master. Teach the young master of the Ji family some rules. After all, if the younger one is not with the young master in the future, he may not be able to serve the two young masters by Shi Meng alone. I have not thought about punishing anyone. If the wife doesn't believe it, you can ask..."
"No need to ask, I know you didn't punish him in particular. There is no need to be particularly difficult when dealing with Ji Ziqian. Ordinary chores and a few sarcastic remarks are enough for him, but do you think you can deceive me with this?" ?" Zheng Shufeng yelled angrily: "Also, don't think that you can take care of things by yourself, because you alone can't handle such a big thing!"
Shi Mo lowered his head and said nothing.
Although he promised Yanzhi that he would never tell Yanzhi, he hoped that his wife would be discerning and he would never be willing to take responsibility alone.
This is not only about the pleasure of dragging people into the water, the most important thing is that it also means that the law should not be punished. If most of the servants of the Wei Mansion are involved in this matter, then even the wife will have no choice but to endure it. This tone.
After all, no matter how big a family is, it cannot do without the support of its subordinates. This is also the basic support for him to dare to bubble.
Zheng Shufeng saw Shi Mo's behavior and knew that he had acquiesced. She was so angry that she trembled all over: "Okay, very good, these **** are really rebelling against each other. I really want you to go to the academy and become immortals." , I really don’t know what the Wei family will do to my Wei family in the future. It’s better to count on you than to count on the immortal masters we hired with money. I don’t think any of you will go to the academy. Our Wei family doesn’t want our own immortal masters!”
The words were so serious that all the servants' faces changed color at the same time. Manager Qin coughed lightly: "Madam, this is not something you can say..."
Rules that can be broken casually are not rules!
The spiritual masters trained by the family themselves are very different from the spiritual masters hired from outside.
This difference is not just a matter of loyalty.
Loyalty is actually the least superstitious thing.
Thousands of years of development in the human world have already proven that when the situation of the master's family is good, even the subordinates are loyal; when the situation of the master's family is critical, even the family members are not loyal.
Therefore, the loyalty of our own immortals is just a deception. In fact, this part has the lowest value.
In terms of effectiveness, external spiritual masters are sometimes even better than in-house spiritual masters. After all, they are paid on a monthly basis, and if they don’t work hard, they will have no money.
The real difference between an external spiritual master and an in-house spiritual master is not loyalty, but that no matter how much you pay, the external spiritual master will not give you the secrets of his magical magic.
Only the family's own spiritual masters are qualified, willing, justified, and likely to obtain permission to teach immortality and form a true immortal cultivating family. The families established by these spiritual masters are often closely related to the original family. , sometimes directly in-laws.
For example, if Tang Jie wants to become a spiritual master in the future, wants to continue practicing, and has to repay the Wei family, then the best way is to marry a girl from the Wei family and leave his heirs here.
It doesn't matter if the Wei family really doesn't have a girl suitable for marriage or the spiritual master doesn't like the girl, you can find a maid and take her in as an adopted daughter, and the descendants will still marry with the Wei family to form various blood relationships. Of course, The details will depend on the future of the spiritual master. For example, Shi Yue, if Tang Jie really succeeds and takes a fancy to her, she can become the young mistress of the Wei family. Her status is even higher than that of Wei Lanxin, and her future heirs are more likely to inherit the Wei family!
If a family wants to survive for hundreds or thousands of years, it depends on this inheritance. Otherwise, if it is just loyalty - do you really think loyalty is worth millions of taels of silver?
Furthermore, the rules of servant learning have been passed down for hundreds of years. The servants are willing to take the lowest wages for this opportunity. The chain of interests among servants also means that one loyal servant can lead a group of loyal servants. , so it has a profound influence on the people below. If the Wei family breaks this rule, the servants will have to rebel first, and even other families will dissuade them.
The intricate network of relationships between big families has long made it so that one person's affairs are often not the affairs of one person but a group of people. Otherwise, Ji Ziqian's arrival would not have caused such a big resistance, and Xu Ruogu would not have to be confident. Mandi believes that Tianshen Palace will not destroy his family.
This intricate network of connections has always been the most important guarantee.
The only difference is that mortals only have mortal connections, while immortals have immortal connections.
The external spiritual master only enjoys this person.
My own spiritual master enjoys not only the power of this person, but also the power of inheritance, and the power of the connections brought by the spiritual master’s lifelong contacts.
So what Zheng Shufeng said was just out of anger. She could not, did not dare, and was not allowed to break such rules.
It's just that Zheng Shufeng's anger has not subsided yet, so although Manager Qin's reminder is right, she is unwilling to listen. Instead, she glared at Manager Qin fiercely: "Don't think I can't see it. Then relax well." Why did Mei Ping suddenly run to the door? Why did we get the news as soon as the incident in Jingxinyuan came out? Why did even the old man get the news so quickly? And how could it be such a coincidence that we arrived just in time, Wei Lan He said such unbearable words in his heart? With these young ones alone, I'm afraid they can't come up with such a sinister trick. I'm afraid there are some old ones who are causing trouble behind, right? By the way, Qin Yuan, don't you think Qingyangxuan Is it really far away from the Jingxin Garden? Fortunately, I still think you are loyal and honest!"
Manager Qin was so shocked that he started to sweat. He could only laugh and say, "My wife has always been shrewd, but her mouth is on my aunt's face. No one can interfere with what she says."
He did not deny the problems pointed out by Zheng Shufeng.
A shrewd servant knows when to play dumb.
A shrewd master also knows when to let go.
Zheng Shufeng is very shrewd. Therefore, she will never pursue this matter to the end. Raising these questions now is just a warning to the people below not to think that I am easy to fool.
I'll pretend to be stupid and let you go. You should also put away your petty thoughts. This quota belongs to the Wei family. After all, it is not you who have the final say!
Therefore, Manager Qin did not defend himself and only said that Wei Lan was not concerned.
What Qin Yuan said is right. Qingyangxuan was arranged far away, but it was not so far away that he couldn't see Wei Tianchong. To be honest, Wei Lanxin really didn't care about Wei Tianchong. The real master is serious; Wei Tianchong is making things difficult for Ji Ziqian~IndoMTL.com~ But it is just the most basic requirement for servants. To put it bluntly, Ji Ziqian has no sense of obligation at all; the servants are also plotting against him, but Wei Lan What the heart's open mouth can say is beyond the control of the servants. To put it bluntly, I still have a bad mouth and don't know how to behave.
In many things, after all, you have problems before you can be taken advantage of.
Zheng Shufeng also understood this. Anyway, she hated Wei Lanxin and her family, so she took the opportunity to drive them away.
Everyone reached a tacit understanding invisibly. The servants helped Zheng Shufeng get rid of the Ji family's troubles, and he also enjoyed two places. Only with this kind of tacit understanding can everyone live in harmony.
So next, Zheng Shufeng got angry again, but in the end, for the first time, he did not punish anyone. He really raised it high and put it down gently.
After Zheng Shufeng said "Go away", the servants left one after another as if they were amnesty. Manager Qin and Tang Jie walked to the end, and neither of them spoke on the road. It was not until they were about to leave the house that Tang Jie smiled and said: "This I would like to thank Uncle Qin for your help this time."
"I'm on a pirate ship!" Manager Qin sighed helplessly, but there was no regret in his eyes.
He looked at Tang Jie: "Although you did a good job in this matter, the impact was very bad. Fortunately, Shi Mo is there to support him, and he will be responsible for everything. You don't have to worry too much. If nothing happens, , when the young master enters the school, that is, when you enter the academy, I will congratulate you first."
Tang Jie said calmly: "I don't think so. In fact, Shi Mo still has a chance."
"Huh?" Manager Qin was stunned: "The last time something happened, you said he had no chance. Now that such a big thing has happened, why do you say he has a chance instead?"
"It's because of such a big incident that Shi Mo got another chance." Tang Jie sighed.
"What opportunity?"
"The devil's great wish!"
