Guan He laughed and said, "His surname is Zheng, and he is a friend of mine and Yuanfan's. Old Yuan, you can just call him Xiao Zheng."
Zheng Pengfei glared at Guan He and, turning to Yuan Shang, made a bow with hands clasped and said, "Don't listen to his nonsense. My surname is Zheng, and you can simply call me Pengfei, my friend."
Yuan Shang hurriedly returned the gesture with a bow and said, "Master Zheng is too polite. I am Yuan Shang, the steward of the Qi Family Construction Business. Just like Guan He, you can call me Old Yuan."
Guan He glanced at Official Tang, who was still hesitating between the two drawings, and interrupted the pleasantries to ask Yuan Shang, "Old Yuan, who designed these gardens? Both of these gardens look quite nice, not very big but rather exquisite."
