Chapter 1587 He knew it ten years ago
What I said yesterday was just a courtesy!
It was just a polite remark so that he wouldn't be criticized for mistreating his savior.
But what is the status of General Sun? Since he took the initiative to say this, no matter what his real thoughts are, he has to come this time.
Now even the uncle and nephew have committed suicide in the Shuntian prison. Even if General Sun and the second prince want to take advantage of this matter and use me to do something, they can't do it. Under this circumstance, how could General Sun possibly see me again?
What if I can't stand my current miserable state and ask for repayment?
He knew ten years ago that these powerful people were two-faced and hypocritical, and now he understood it more deeply.
Zheng Sangge drank a cup of tea, calmly exchanged some pleasantries with the butler, and then stood up to say goodbye.
"By the way, when the general comes back, please ask the butler to tell the general that I appreciate the general's kindness, but I have been away from the officialdom for many years and have no intention of returning to be an official. I was not used to it ten years ago, and it is even more impossible to get used to it now! Please don't worry about me anymore!"
"I will keep the general's kindness in my heart and I am grateful. I hope everything goes well for the general and all his wishes come true!"
After hearing this, the housekeeper subconsciously showed a look of relief and smiled awkwardly: "Oh, this, this... Hehe! General Zheng is really, really... General Zheng, don't worry, I will convey your meaning to the general!"
He didn't even try to persuade him to stay, which showed how afraid General Sun was that he would be entangled with him for saving his life.
Zheng Sangge smiled and said, "Thank you very much!"
"Hey, General Zheng, please wait a moment," the butler quickly ordered the servant beside him to fetch a silver envelope, and handed it to Zheng Sangge with a smile: "Here is a three hundred tael silver note. General Zheng knows that General Zheng's life is not very easy now. This is a little gift from the general. General Zheng, please don't refuse it."
Zheng Sangge didn't want it at all.
If it was ten years ago, he would definitely not take it if he didn't want it, and he would definitely refuse it stubbornly.
But now, he was only entangled in the contradiction for a moment, and then took the envelope containing the banknote, "Thank you, General!"
If he doesn't want it, I'm afraid others won't feel at ease!
Besides, they have old and young, sick and disabled people there, and they lack everything most of all money. Three hundred taels is a large sum of money, and it will be useful to take it back.
Zheng Sangge's thanks came from the bottom of his heart.
No matter what General Sun's intention was in giving him the three hundred taels of silver, he benefited from it after all.
Since you have accepted it, you will naturally be grateful.
After taking the silver, he felt contempt and resentment towards the other person in his heart. Zheng Sangge could not do such a thing as picking up the bowl to eat meat and then putting the bowl down to curse his mother.
As soon as Zheng Sangge left, General Sun slowly walked out from behind the partition.
"master……"
The housekeeper hurried forward, bowed and said with a smile: "This man is quite tactful and not verbose at all."
He had prepared a lot of words to defend and fight but he hadn't had the chance to say them yet.
General Sun's eyes flickered, and he felt inexplicably irritated.
He felt uncomfortable as if he had punched cotton, but he knew that this was not the only thing he was feeling at the moment.
"That's all!"
After a while, General Sun said this and strode away.
