Chapter 774: 201: Wise Uncle Du, ignorance! _3
Madam Zheng said, “Sir, as the Buddha says: ‘Saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-storied pagoda.’ Xianjing saved Mr. Du. She is indeed amassing virtue for herself. Since she doesn’t wish to accept these gifts, please take them back.”
Madam Zheng was very pleased that Zheng Xianjing was so reasonable.
Others may not be as indifferent when faced with wealth and power.
Wang Zeqi bent slightly towards Madam Zheng, “I will come to visit you again.”
Madam Zheng nodded.
With no other option, Wang Zeqi had to leave with the unaccepted gifts.
After Wang Zeqi left, the initially quiet living room immediately became lively.
Madam Zheng looked at Zheng Xianjing, “Xianjing, why didn’t you tell us about this?”
Zheng Xianjing said, “It was just a matter of convenience, I didn’t think it was worth mentioning, so I didn’t tell you.”
Zheng Lingling said, “Xianjing has always had a kind heart since she was a child, she wouldn’t even hurt an ant on the road.”
Madam Zheng nodded in satisfaction.
Zheng Sheng looked at Zheng Xianjing with a fawning smile, “Saving Mr. Du is not a small matter. You see, Mr. Du is a big shot in Shanghai! Xianjing, I’m your uncle, when you have time, please speak on my behalf in front of Mr. Du, so your cousin Minghui can also benefit from your good deed.”
Zheng Sheng and his children, are all typical snobs!
Just a moment ago, they hadn’t shown this much enthusiasm!
A sarcastic smile formed at the corner of Zheng Xianjing’s mouth, “Uncle, you joke too much. I don’t have the ability to speak on your behalf in front of Mr. Du. Moreover, why would a high-profile person like Mr. Du listen to my ramblings?”
“I’m not joking, how could this be a joke?” Zheng Sheng responded, “you’re the one who saved Mr. Du’s life!”
Zheng Xianjing took a sip of tea and did not say a word.
Zheng Gao then added, “Dear niece, while you’re thinking about your cousin Minghui, don’t forget your cousin Mingming.”
