Chapter 1153 Redemption 4
On the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Zhang Huahan got up early as usual, went to greet Mrs. Zhang first, and then went to Wutong Courtyard.
In Mrs. Zhang's room, the female family members of the Zhang family watched Zhang Huahan leave with a mocking expression on their faces.
"The fifth girl in our family is really unlucky. She has such a prominent maternal grandfather's family, but she has such a stubborn mother. She has grown up so big, and she has not benefited from it at all..." Zhang
The second wife of the family shook her head and sighed.
Hearing this, the girls from the Zhang family all looked over.
Miss Zhang Er even asked directly: "Mom, they say that my eldest aunt's family is famous. How famous is it?"
The elders of the Zhang family are worried that the younger generations are loose-mouthed and talk nonsense when they go out. Except for the uncle of the Zhang family, the rest of the younger generation do not know the real situation of the Yan family. The eldest daughter Zhang only found out after overhearing the conversation between Mrs. Zhang and Mr. Zhang a few days ago.
Some.
Mrs. Zhang Er just wanted to speak, but Mrs. Zhang gave her a stern look and could only smile.
Second girl Zhang, relying on Mrs. Zhang's favor, hugged Mrs. Zhang's arm and acted coquettishly: "Grandma, what's so great about the Yan family, can't we just ask?"
"In the past, when we went out as guests, our wives would ask us about the Yan family, but we didn't know anything and could only stand there stupidly. It was embarrassing."
Miss Zhang San added: "I can't even mention it. Is it possible that the Yan family can still be relatives of the emperor?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions on the faces of the adults in the room became subtle.
The Yan family...are not relatives of the emperor!!!
The Zhang family, a merchant family that is not even ranked in Daxia, marries an authentic daughter of the Yan family, even if she is divorced, it is definitely a high ranking of the Zhang family.
The girl from the merchant's family still has some good eyesight. When she saw Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Zhang Er and Mrs. Zhang San being strangely silent, her heart skipped a beat. Especially Miss Zhang, who knew a little more about the situation, almost couldn't stand it.
I can’t help the expression on my face.
At this moment, all the girls from the Zhang family were thinking: Are the Yan family really relatives of the emperor?!
The room became quiet.
Mrs. Zhang San looked at Mrs. Zhang and broke the silence with a smile: "Let me tell you, the fifth girl is also a tough-minded person. Maybe one day the clouds will clear and the moon will shine."
Mrs. Zhang Er was not so optimistic: "With my sister-in-law's temper, I don't know how long we have to wait for that day." As she said that, she looked at Mrs. Zhang expectantly, "Mom, do you think we should help the fifth girl?
?It’s not a big deal when the biological mother and daughter are in such a quarrel.”
Mrs. Zhang glanced sideways at Mrs. Zhang Er: "How do you want to help?"
Mrs. Zhang Er's expression froze: "Isn't my daughter-in-law discussing with you?"
Mrs. Zhang gave a loud 'hum'.
She knew what the two daughters-in-law were thinking, and they were also moved when they saw that the eldest girl could marry the eldest son of the county magistrate's family.
The second girl and the third girl are now discussing marriage. If we only rely on the relationship between the Zhang family, they can talk about a good marriage, but the choice is limited to merchants.
Merchants are rich, but they have no status. When facing officials, they are always the ones who bow their heads.
But it's different for officials. Even a seventh-grade county magistrate has the power of a county. Everyone who lives in this county must listen to the county magistrate.
Take Qingshi County as an example. Although the Zhang family is the richest man, they still have to be careful and respectful when facing the county magistrate, let alone the larger officials such as the prefect and prefect.
As a grandmother, she naturally hopes that each of her granddaughters will find a good home, but this is not something they can achieve.
The one from Wutongyuan has hated the boss ever since she married into the Zhang family. How could she possibly plan for the Zhang family?
Now she doesn't dare to think about it. She just wants that girl to remember a little bit.
After all, Wu Yatou is a girl from the Zhang family. When she gets better, her brothers and sisters in the family can also get better.
Seeing that the second daughter-in-law and the third daughter-in-law were still hesitant to speak, Mrs. Zhang snorted: "If you have the ability to persuade that person, I won't stop you, you can do it yourself."
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhang Er and Mrs. Zhang San both looked disappointed.
After that, Mrs. Zhang didn't have the heart to say anything else and asked everyone to retreat.
As soon as they came out of the yard, Miss Zhang Er couldn't wait to pull Mrs. Zhang Er and asked: "Mom, are the Yan family really... relatives of the emperor?"
Miss Zhang Er said the last four words very softly.
Mrs. Zhang Er glanced at Miss Zhang, and then at the others. Thinking that the girls had grown up and all knew the importance, she thought about it, and although she did not answer directly, she said: "The Yan family's affairs are not allowed to be discussed here."
If you don't talk nonsense outside, you will be served by family law."
At this time, the girls from the Zhang family didn't understand anything, and their faces were full of shock and disbelief.
The eldest aunt (mother)’s family background is so powerful that they can’t even think about it!
Relatives of the emperor and the country... They had only seen actors perform in the theater for people with this status. They never expected that they could actually be related to such a family.
......
Not long after everyone dispersed, several masters of the Zhang family received shocking news.
Yan Yile left Zhang Huahan to have lunch in Wutong Courtyard!!!
Moreover, a personal maid was sent to teach Zhang Huahan etiquette and rules.
As soon as the news came out, even Mr. Zhang in the front yard was stunned for a while.
Mrs. Zhang was stunned for a moment, then showed a smile: "That... still can't let go of her own daughter after all."
It’s okay if you can’t let go. If you can’t let her go, she will make plans for the fifth girl.
With the Yan family's family background, even if the fifth girl is a merchant, many young men from aristocratic families will line up to marry her. It is not difficult to marry into a high family.
Although the Yan family is prominent, it is still my grandfather's family. No matter whose family the five girls marry in the future, they will still have to rely on the Zhang family for support.
In this way, how can she not support her brothers and sisters?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
At this moment, Mrs. Zhang sincerely hoped that Zhang Huahan would marry well. If she gets well, the Zhang family will naturally benefit from it.
......
After coming out of Wutong Courtyard, Zhang Huahan was still a little confused. She never expected that her mother would send Aunt Jingjing to teach her etiquette and rules in person.
Although she still didn't see her mother this time, and although her legs were weak after practicing walking in the house for a day, Zhang Huahan was still full of joy at this moment.
Mother...is finally willing to pay attention to her!
Moreover, she was asked to come to Wutong Courtyard every day in the future.
Caiwei looked at Zhang Huahan, whose eyes were full of tears, and was also happy for her: "Girl, you ate lunch and dinner at the eldest lady's place today. I believe that one day, you will be able to eat with the eldest lady.
”
Zhang Huahan also had yearning in his eyes, looking forward to it: "I also hope to have such a day."
The next day, when Zhang Huahan went to greet Mrs. Zhang, she saw Mrs. Zhang Er, Mrs. Zhang San and all the girls of the Zhang family arriving earlier than her.
Usually, she is almost always the first to arrive, but today the second aunt, the third aunt and the sisters seemed to have made an appointment.
Zhang Huahan knew that they had come so early, but he just wanted to ask her about what happened in Wutong Courtyard yesterday. He felt a little bored, so he greeted Mrs. Zhang, sat there for a while, and then stood up to leave.
Mrs. Zhang Er immediately smiled and said: "Fifth girl, why are you leaving in such a hurry? Your eldest sister will get married soon. You sisters should get together and have a heart-to-heart talk."
Zhang Huahan glanced at her and said with a faint smile: "Second Aunt, my mother asked me to go to her yard to listen to training every day. I might not be able to explain myself if I go late, so please forgive me."
Mrs. Zhang Er looked stunned and said: "Going every day?"
Zhang Huahan nodded.
Miss Zhang couldn't help it anymore and asked: "Learn etiquette and rules every day?" Why is it necessary to learn etiquette and rules every day?
Zhang Huahan shook his head: "I don't know about that."
Miss Zhang asked again: "What did you learn yesterday?"
Zhang Huahan didn't like the way she asked, but seeing everyone looking at him, he knew that if he didn't say something, these people would keep pestering him: "Nothing else, just practicing walking."
"Walking?"
Miss Zhang Er exclaimed in surprise: "Fifth sister, please don't try to coax us. Who can't walk? Why do we need to practice all day?"
Then he hummed, "It's okay if you lied to us, but grandma is still here."
Zhang Huahan frowned: "Second sister doesn't believe it, so there's nothing I can do about it." He said, looking at Mrs. Zhang, "There is nothing that my mother has taught me that I can't tell others. If my grandmother doesn't believe it either, she can send her
I went to Wutong Courtyard to ask."
Old Mrs. Zhang glared at Miss Zhang Er and looked at Zhang Huahan with a smile: "Look at you girl, how can you take it seriously? Your second sister is joking with you. She is just such a person. You are a good child. Stop talking to her."
She usually cares about it."
Zhang Huahan's brows immediately knitted into knots. Although she had long since given up hope for the Zhang family, she was still extremely disgusted with her grandmother's conciliatory way. She didn't say much and said directly: "Grandma, then I'll start with
Went to mother's side."
Looking at Zhang Huahan's leaving figure, Miss Zhang murmured: "Look what the fifth sister can do. My eldest aunt only kept her for one day, but she doesn't take her grandmother seriously anymore."
Mrs. Zhang immediately glared at her, making Miss Zhang shrink back.
"Humph!"
Mrs. Zhang looked at the girls of the Zhang family with a serious face: "You like to ridicule the fifth girl. You didn't care about it before, but from today on, you must change your attitude towards her."
"The most important thing for a girl's family is life-long affairs. You can't lose anything by making friends with Fifth Girl."
It wasn't until all the girls in the Zhang family nodded that Mrs. Zhang looked away: "The five girls didn't lie just now. The rules and etiquette of officials have always been strict, and there are strict standards for every word and deed."
As he said that, he looked at Miss Zhang Er.
"Don't talk nonsense about things you don't understand or don't know in the future. You are already old. Don't mistake ignorance for straightforwardness. This will only make people laugh."
Miss Zhang Er turned pale and admitted her mistake in a low voice.
Although she admitted her mistake, she didn't really feel that she was wrong.
Walking... no matter how well you practice, can you still get better?
