Chapter 1581 Pretending Not to Know
This obviously meant to summon Zheng Sangge to have a good talk with him and to give him a position.
General Sun's eyes flashed with displeasure. Just as he was about to speak, Zheng Sangge had already clasped his fists and bowed to Shao Yunduan: "Thank you, Lord Shao! I'm sorry to have caused you trouble!"
"General Zheng, you're welcome!"
"I am no longer a general. If you don't mind, Lord Shao, you can just call me Brother Zheng."
"Okay, Brother Zheng!"
Shao Yunduan nodded and smiled.
General Sun was very annoyed and said with a smile: "Xiao Zheng, you are so mean. How did you get through all these years? Why didn't you come to me when you had trouble? There is no need for us to be so formal! I always thought you had returned to your hometown, but I didn't expect that!"
Zheng Sangge felt a little sarcastic and wanted to laugh. There were so many of them living in the slums in the north of the city, and they all had the same status. How could General Sun not know about it?
Not knowing is just pretending not to know.
I don't like being an official, I'm not good at flattering others, and I can't stand people and things like that. Such a small contribution, such a small life-saving grace, after so many years, nothing is left. How could General Sun still remember it?
His nice words sound nice now, but if I really go to find him, I'm afraid he would have been annoyed a long time ago, right?
Having experienced many hardships in life, Zheng Sangge is no longer the Zheng Sangge of the past. He was disgusted in his heart, but he concealed it well on his face. He said respectfully to General Sun: "I am ashamed. I have been living a lazy life these years. How can I have the face to go to the general."
General Sun laughed and patted him on the shoulder: "You are too modest! Well, it's getting late today so I won't say more. Please come to my house tomorrow."
"Yes, General!"
General Sun originally thought that he would refuse, or at least refuse once or twice before agreeing, but he didn't expect him to agree so readily, and he was slightly stunned.
He laughed and left. "Well, don't forget it!"
"yes."
The mockery in Zheng Sangge's heart became even stronger.
In a blink of an eye, the Shuntian government office was empty, with only Zheng Sangge, Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan left.
Zheng Sangge bowed to Qiao Xuan and said, "Thank you, Madam Shao, for what happened today!"
Wu Guan and Liu Changming also hurriedly clasped their fists and bowed to express their gratitude.
"Yes, I am really grateful to Mrs. Shao today!"
"If it weren't for Madam Shao's help, these children today... Alas!"
"That's right!" Zheng Sangge also sighed and called a few children to come forward to thank him.
Qiao Xuan quickly grabbed Qinglian and Qiaoqiao, and hurriedly told Liu Fu and the others to get up. She said with a smile, "Come on, stop it. Brother Zheng, you guys are too polite! How can I turn a blind eye to injustice? I just did what I should do."
After a pause, she half-jokingly said, "In fact, I am just relying on my husband to be fearless. There may be people among the onlookers who feel sorry for him and want to help, but no one dares to."
Zheng Sangge laughed: "In any case, we will accept the favor of Madam Shao and Lord Shao."
Shao Yunduan said, "Let's go first. Our home is closer to here. Why don't you come to our home, take a quick shower, eat something, and then we'll take you back later?"
Zheng Sangge thought for a moment, nodded and said with a smile: "I am sorry to bother Mr. Shao and Mrs. Shao!"
Qiao Xuan was delighted and said with a smile: "What's the big deal? We welcome you very much!"
