Chapter 20 Are the common people looking for you?

After the emperor left, all the ministers also dispersed, and Cheng Yu also walked towards home.

After returning home, he didn't see Cheng Yaojin, thinking that he might not be at home, Cheng Yu went directly to his room.

Today, it was the morning court again, and it was another battle of wits and courage with that Xu Che at Yushitai.

Cheng Yu was very tired just now when he was dealing with the locusts in the field. After returning to his room, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

After an unknown amount of time, he was woken up by a shaking. When he opened his eyes, he saw Uncle Zhang's face in front of him!

"Uncle Zhang, what's the matter? Is it time for dinner?" Cheng Yu rubbed his eyes and asked.

"Oh, I said young master, you still want to eat, did you get into some trouble today, people have come to your door!" Uncle Zhang said anxiously.

court disaster?Looking for the door?

Except for Changsun Wuji, he has never offended anyone else today, so it is impossible for Changsun Wuji to come to the door in person.

There are no other ones, huh?
"Uncle Zhang, who came to the door? I haven't offended anyone today?" Cheng Yu asked doubtfully.

"Oh, young master, you'd better go and have a look, the master is losing his temper because of this matter!" Uncle Zhang thought to himself, this young master of his own family often causes trouble without knowing it. Go out and see for yourself.

Hearing Uncle Zhang's words, Cheng Yu got up and walked out. He wanted to see who was looking for him.

When he reached the hall, Cheng Yaojin was pacing angrily there, and when he saw Cheng Yu approaching, he raised his hand high.

Seeing his movements, Cheng Yu quickly hid behind and said.

"If you have something to say, don't do it!"

Cheng Yaojin looked at Cheng Yu with a look of hating iron but not steel, and finally he didn't have the heart to drop that slap.

"You don't live up to it, I thought you'd grown up after venting your anger, but I didn't expect that you're still so useless!
I don't care about any holidays you have with those young masters, but how can you bully the common people!

Disgrace my Cheng family! "

Hearing Cheng Yaojin's words, Cheng Yu was at a loss, when did I bully the common people!

"Here, is there some misunderstanding? I didn't do anything?" Cheng Yu said.

"You are still making excuses, and people are coming to your door. Come on, follow me and apologize to others, and you will pay what you deserve!"

After finishing speaking, Cheng Yaojin pulled Cheng Yu and walked out.

After arriving at the gate of the Duke's Mansion, Cheng Yu saw a group of people surrounded by the gate. They were all ordinary people in their clothes.

"Where is Mr. Cheng, let Mr. Cheng come out!"

Those people are still shouting.

After seeing Cheng Yu and Cheng Yaojin, they immediately surrounded them.

The guards at the gate couldn't stop them.

"Fellow folks, I'm sorry. I don't know what my son has done to cause you trouble. I'm here to apologize to you on his behalf! It's because I didn't educate my son well, so I'm sorry everyone!" Cheng Yaojin spoke first.

"Nizi, hurry up and apologize!" After finishing speaking, he yelled at Cheng Yu.

"No, I don't know why, I can't die without knowing how!" Cheng Yu said.

"Gong Lu, young master, you have misunderstood. We are here to thank Mr. Cheng!" At this time, a commoner took the lead and said.

"Yes, we are all here to thank Mr. Cheng, he has helped us a lot today!"

Hearing the words of those common people, Cheng Yaojin was a little unresponsive.

These people didn't come to him to ask for an explanation, but to thank Cheng Yu?

"Oh, Mr. Cheng, you don't know yet. Your son helped us solve the big problem of locusts today. Although the crops have been eaten and there are not many left, it is better than nothing!"

"Yes, yes, Mr. Cheng is really powerful. It seems that we have misunderstood him before. Mr. Cheng, you really gave birth to a good son. He is equivalent to saving the livelihood of the people in the city!"

"Mr. Cheng, these are eggs saved by our family. The family is poor and can't produce any good things. Don't dislike it!" A woman handed over a basket of eggs in her hand.

At this moment, Cheng Yu finally understood what was going on. It turned out that they all came here for the locusts during the day.

He was a little touched that these people, who are so grateful, came to thank them so soon.

Moreover, because of the drought and locust plague, their food was already insufficient, and now they gave him the only good things left, which really caught him off guard.

"Mr. Cheng, this is a vegetable grown by our family. Don't dislike it!"

"Mr. Cheng, this is the locust that was just caught this afternoon, so you can accept it!"

The other common people all took out the things they had prepared one after another. Cheng Yu could tell that these things were the best things they could give so far.

"Everyone, I have received everyone's wishes, but I really can't accept this thing!"

"Mr. Cheng, just accept it. It's not anything valuable, just to express your gratitude!"

"I know, I know, but now is an extraordinary period, food is very scarce, maybe for you, this basket of eggs can save a person's life.

Therefore, this thing is too precious to me, accepting it will only make my conscience uneasy, if you really want to thank me, you can take it back.

Besides, as an official, I want to solve problems for the common people and find ways to make your life better, so this is all my fault, and I don't deserve your thanks, thank you all! "

Cheng Yu's words moved everyone present, and at the same time, they admired him even more in their hearts.

The person who was most shocked and moved was Cheng Yaojin. He never thought that those words just now came from the mouth of his youngest son.

Before himself, it seemed that he really didn't know this little son anymore, and he looked at Cheng Yu with an added sense of relief.

And Zhang Bo was behind them, also smiling. This young master really gave them a surprise.

After all the talk, Cheng Yu finally persuaded all the people away, and Cheng Yu felt his mouth was dry.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw Cheng Yaojin's eyes looking at him. Although the eyes were full of kindness, but such a look appeared on him, which inexplicably made Cheng Yu feel very horrified.

"Father, don't look at me like that, I'm a little panicked!"

"Hahaha, what a good boy, well done. I never thought you would be so proud of my father!"
