Chapter 1288: Capable Personnel
After saying this, Cheng Feng went to bid farewell to Wan Lianxing.
At this time, Wan Lianxing asked the servants around him to take out two exquisite small boxes.
Then he said with a smile: "Cang Man, you performed the best today and won the most balls, so I will reward you with a pair of Dongzhu!"
Cangman was flattered and immediately knelt on the ground to thank Wan Lianxing.
Then Wan Lianxing said to Hong Yunrang: "Yunrang, you have made the most progress. To encourage you, I will also reward you with a pair of Dongzhu."
"Thank you, little grandpa. Long live grandpa!"
"Be flat!"
Cheng Youning saw all of this with his narrow eyes. He looked at the servant who had just presented the box, and found that he had nothing in his hand.
This Dongzhu is pearl, and it is a super large pearl. Cheng Youning happens to be a pearl lover. He has behaved well today, so why not give him a pair of Dongzhu? It will look good if it is inlaid on the hair crown. Cheng Youning kept thinking about things in his little head!
Cheng Youning was thick-skinned, but he didn't want to miss any opportunity, so whenever he didn't understand something, he would ask for clarification.
"Little Grandfather, you only brought two pairs of Dongzhu?"
Wan Lianxing nodded with a smile: "There are only two pairs. This thing is rare!"
Cheng Youning said: "But my grandson wants a pair too!"
Wan Lianxing spread his hands and said, "I'll give it to you when I get the Dongzhu!"
"Does it take that long?"
Hong Yunrang was a very modest man. He said to Wan Lianxing, "Grandpa, my younger brother likes pearls the most. How about giving one pearl to my grandson and one to my younger brother?"
Hong Yunrang did not dare to make a decision on his own and had to ask Wan Lianxing for his opinion. Before Wan Lianxing could say anything, Cheng Youning smiled and said, "Thank you, brother!" Then he reached out and took a pearl from the wooden box in Hong Yunrang's hand.
Just as he was admiring the Dongzhu happily, Wan Lianxing said, "Cheng Youning, return it to Yunrang. What was rewarded to your brother belongs to him. How can you fight with others for something?"
"My grandson didn't earn it. My brother gave it to me on his own initiative!"
"Don't be disrespectful!"
Cheng Youning said unhappily, "I only want one, I don't have all of them for myself."
"Give it back! No matter how young you are, you are still a begging prince. You must not behave in such a domineering way!"
"Grandpa is biased! You also know that I am the little prince!" After saying this, Cheng Youning pursed his lips in grievance and returned the pearl to Hong Yunrang.
Everyone present could see that Cheng Youning liked pearls, and they also knew that Cheng Youning had a habit of wearing pearls, but Cheng Youning had no self-control over pearls.
Wan Lianxing asked with great interest: "Cheng Youning, you are very resentful! I want to hear you talk about why Grandpa is biased!"
Cheng Youning pouted and said, "Grandfather is unfair to me and my brother. He favors my brother in every way. We are both beggar princes, why did you only give my brother the word 'Nie', while your grandson has nothing? Everyone calls my brother Prince Nie, but I am just an ordinary little prince. We are on the same level, but I am not given a word. Not only that, my brother has a mansion and salary, but I don't have any."
Wan Lianxing heard this and said calmly: "Your brother often offers advice and suggestions to Fengqi! He has helped little grandfather solve problems! He deserves these treatments."
Cheng Youning was a little unconvinced. He thought he was omnipotent and said, "I can also offer suggestions, but you don't give me the chance!"
Wan Lianxing pretended to be thoughtful and said, "If you feel so aggrieved, I will also grant you a mansion, which is bigger than your brother's, and the salary is also higher than your brother's, but you must really offer some suggestions!"
Cheng Youning didn't know where he got the spirit of being strong and unwilling to admit defeat. He nodded vigorously and asked, "What word will you give me, little grandfather?"
Everyone could hear that Cheng Youning was very concerned about the emperor's bestowal of a character. When the emperor bestowed a character on Hong Yunrang, Wan Lianxing had already said that one day, Cheng Youning would go and argue with him. He did not expect it to happen so soon. However, this opportunity came too well. He was just thinking about how to talk to Cheng Youning about the prince. It seemed that it was a natural thing to do now. All he needed was an imperial decree, and everything would go smoothly.
He thought for a moment and said, "You go home and have dinner first. I need to think carefully about the matter of bestowing a name. I will issue an edict to give you a reply in three days!"
Cheng Youning nodded and asked, "Then where is the mansion you gave to your grandson? Is there a lake in the mansion?"
However, Wan Lianxing asked back: "Will you live in the mansion if I give it to you?"
"Of course I have to live there. If my grandson has a mansion, he won't have to go to my aunt's house to hide when he gets into trouble in the future!" Cheng Youning, who yearns for freedom, hopes to have a hiding place every time he is beaten. If his grandfather rewards him with a mansion, he would be more than happy to do so. As for the salary, it is dispensable!
Wan Lianxing tapped the palm of his folding fan repeatedly, and after a long while he said, "I will discuss this with the ministers, and it will also be written in the imperial edict at that time. But you have to remember that rewards are not taken for nothing, and once the imperial edict is issued, it cannot be taken back!"
Cheng Youning said, "As long as Grandpa doesn't regret it, I won't regret it either. I'm just offering advice and suggestions to help Grandpa solve his problems! I will definitely not let Grandpa down!"
Cheng Youning was a child after all, and he thought that those clever ideas in his mind were so-called schemes. Little did he know that the naive boy was actually falling step by step into the scheme carefully designed for him by his little grandfather.
Wan Lianxing said sternly, "Just go home and wait! The imperial edict will arrive in three days!"
Cheng Youning grinned and said, "Thank you, little grandpa. Long live little grandpa!
What Cheng Youning didn't see was that his father's face had become very long and dark like a deep pool.
Until they got home, Cheng Feng didn't talk much to Cheng Youning, but the excited Cheng Youning kept dancing and gesticulating to annoy Cheng Feng.
Cheng Feng admitted defeat. He couldn't beat his uncle. It was like this in the past and it is still like this now.
After arriving home, Cheng Feng woke up Shang Xi who was sleeping in bed, "My uncle will send someone to pick up Cheng Youning in three days. Pack up the child's things in the next two days and take everything he likes and should take with him."
The dazed Shang Xi woke up in an instant.
Cheng Feng comforted her and said, "Don't cry. It's not good for the children to see you crying. It won't change anything anyway. Let's think positively. This way, the children can move away happily!"
Shang Xi held back her tears and nodded, "Should we bring some capable people over to help the child?"
