Chapter 54: The Wind is Calm
Of course, Zhang Shengcheng would not really go to the temple to be a monk, but went to an old house of the Zhang family thirty miles away from Baoding City.
Originally, it was also an exquisite residence. Because it is uninhabited and in disrepair, the eaves are dilapidated, the doors and windows are crooked, and the dry yellow weeds in the yard are dense and disorderly.
Zhang Shengcheng pushed aside the weeds and entered the main room, which was even more dusty and cobwebs.
"M's. Zhang Shengcheng scolded a foul word and said to himself: "If I knew this, it would be better to go to the temple to be a monk." ”
Zhang Shengcheng sorted out a vacant space in the house, wiped a small stool clean, and then picked up some dead branches and rotten grass and lit them to keep warm.
Although he came out in a hurry, he had enough money to stay in a better hotel. The reason why he is wronged here is just to pretend to be pitiful.
Lu Wanmei must marry, but if the family does not agree, this matter really can't be done.
Dad is ruthless, but my mother and grandmother are soft-hearted. In this battle with the family, if his mother and grandmother lowered their heads, then he would have won more than half of it. So, he resorted to this bitter trick.
Zhang Shengcheng was originally prepared for a protracted battle with his family.
However, if this person is lucky, God will help him. No, God helped him last night.
A heavy snowfall made Mrs. Zhang, who originally complained about her son, the first to sit still. After packing up some bedding and food, he wanted to send it to his son.
Unexpectedly, when I arrived at the door, I met Zhang Yizhi, who had just returned.
Zhang Yizhi's eyes glanced back, and he glanced at the big bags and small bags in the hands of several servants, and still asked coldly: "Why are you going?"
Mrs. Zhang only cared about her distressed son at this time, and didn't care about anything else, and said, "It was cold and snowy last night, so I'll send some clothes and food to Cheng'er." ”
He just didn't have to worry about eating and drinking, and his life was too comfortable, so he didn't respect his superiors like this. Like him, he should be allowed to suffer and suffer outside so that he will not be selfish in doing things in the future, and he will take care of the overall situation. ”
Wang An came back and said that Cheng'er was already cold and had a high fever. Cheng'er did too much to Yu Rong, you can reprimand him, punish him, and even beat him, but you can't kill him?
Not to mention, Zhang Yizhi is really not an ordinary son who understands himself.
He sneered and said to his wife, "He's going to make himself so miserable, he's making a show for us, and only you will fall for him." ”
When Mrs. Zhang saw that she couldn't make sense with her husband, she stopped at the door and refused to let her go, so she went straight to her mother-in-law, and as soon as she entered the door, she cried.
The old lady is in a circle, and her daughter-in-law has always been dignified and decent, when did she lose her manners like this. When the daughter-in-law cried a little quieter, she asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Mrs. Zhang talked about Zhang Sheng's situation in the old house and the dispute with her husband just now, and talked about it in front of her mother-in-law, and finally cried again.
When the old lady heard this, her face immediately changed, and her chest breathing was a little unsmooth, and she said tightly: "I, I thought that Cheng'er was at his friend's friend's place, or he was staying in a hotel." Yizhi won't let you go, let's go together, I see how he can stop him? Let Wang An prepare the car. ”
As soon as the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went out on the front foot, someone ran to the study to report Zhang Yizhi on the back foot. He sighed helplessly, threw away the book, took his hat and went out of the room.
I hurried all the way, and finally caught up with my mother and wife halfway through.
Zhang Yizhi frowned: "Mother, what are you doing on this cold day?"
The old lady felt sorry for her grandson, and said with a cold face: "My grandson is like that, what do you say I am doing when I come out? I can't control how you treat your son, but I tell you, if you don't take Cheng'er back for a day, I will accompany Cheng'er in the old house for a day." ”
Zhang Yizhi is a well-known filial son, he can be ruthless to his son, but he can't help but feel sorry for his mother. What else can be done but to compromise?
The trick of bitter meat may not be useful to outsiders. But for the relatives who care about you, that's a quasi-child.
In this way, Zhang Shengcheng and his family won the confrontation match in less than two days, with the assistance of God, mother and grandmother!
The pale face, the purple black lips, the cold hands and feet, the stiff body......
Zhang Shengcheng looked miserable like that, but there was nothing wrong with him, and after three or two days of recuperation in the hospital, he looked like a dog again.
Zhang Yizhi reluctantly gave in and agreed to marry Lu Wanmei to Zhang Shengcheng. But the promise was not happy, and in the end, he made three trips to Zhang Shengcheng.
Zhang Yizhi said: "If you want to marry Lu Mei, I won't stop you." However, I have three conditions. ”
As soon as Zhang Shengcheng heard that he agreed, he was immediately happy, not to mention the three conditions, even thirty or three hundred, he didn't say a word.
He coughed lightly, pressed the joy in his heart hard, and then said, "Dad, you say." ”
Zhang Yizhi glanced at his son coldly and said, "First, you don't recognize Yurong as your wife. Well, I will recognize her as a daughter, and the family property will be redistributed. One share for you, one share for Yurong and Qing'er, one share for me and your mother and your grandmother.
Second, I don't care if you and Yurong are divorced or divorced, when it comes to the world, you are also marrying a wife for the second time. Whether she is the daughter of the president or the daughter of the chief, she can't match the original match of Yu Rong. Therefore, I will only pay half of the cost of your wedding.
Third, me, your mother and your grandmother are all old, and we don't like to be quiet. After you get married, you will be fine, and our three old men will definitely not say a word. If you don't get along, you go out and live by yourself, but I don't pay a penny. You have agreed to these three conditions, what to do next is up to you. ”
Zhang Shengcheng has been pampered since he was a child, and he has developed a high-minded and arrogant temperament. Dismissive of the family's possessions.
The heart said, I am not rare that you have money, just with my master's degree in economics and history, it is not enough for me and Wanmei to eat, drink and Lazar?
As soon as Zhang Yizhi finished speaking, he agreed: "Just do it, I have no opinion." ”
Zhang Yizhi turned his head and asked the old lady and his wife again, this time you have to say hello, don't run out like two days ago, without saying a word. Always running out, he can stand it.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law glanced at each other and nodded.
They all agreed, and the matter was settled.
As the saying goes: good things are grinding, twists and turns.
How do you say that?
Zhang Shengcheng finally got his family to agree, and was thinking that he would go to the Lu family to propose his marriage in a day or two, but before he could go, there was a big wind on the Lu family's side.
"Smack!"
Zhang Yizhi threw the newspaper in his hand on Zhang Shengcheng's body, and strode around the room a few times in anger, pointing at Zhang Shengcheng with his finger, his angry face was deformed, and said: "You are really good! You are really capable! I thought that you abandoned your wife and children for a woman, and you were already unkind and unjust, and your conscience was lost, but I didn't expect you to be a bastard who robbed other people's fiancées." You see, you see, what kind of people do the newspapers write about you and that Lu Wanmei? Don't you want to think about it, the Wang family has a supreme position in the political and military circles, and if you rob someone's fiancée, aren't you afraid that the Wang family will return to the head, so that our Zhang family can't eat and walk around? Zhang Shengcheng, Zhang Shengcheng, you, you, you really can't make me admire. ”
What's going on?
If Zhang Shengcheng's wedding caused a sensation in the entire Baoding Mansion, then Lu Wanmei's engagement banquet that year caused a sensation in the entire Beijing City.
The Lu family can speak well in Beijing, but compared with the Wang family, it is not a little bit worse. What's more, the Wang family is involved in a wider range of areas, including military, politics, and business, all of which are among the best in Beijing. Therefore, at the engagement banquet that year, bigwigs from all walks of life were all present, and even several newspapers were present in person.
Not long ago, the marriage news of Wang Lu's two families came out again, and the newspapers continued to follow up and report it.
Now that the wind has changed suddenly, the Lu family has proposed to withdraw from the marriage, and the reporters have revealed the relationship between Lu Wanmei and Zhang Shengcheng, and they have dug up some of their daily trivia in the UK, which has been greatly exaggerated.
said that Zhang Shengcheng is talented, but he is a negative man who likes the new and hates the old and tempts other people's wives......
said, Lu Wanmei is beautiful and charming, but she is a watery poplar and is not loyal to her fiancé......
Wang Chao saw that the matter was a bit big, and out of kindness, he made a statement in the newspaper, which means that he and Lu Wanmei dissolved the marriage contract by mutual consent, and there was no unilateral fault, and he hoped that he would not make personal attacks for this.
As a result, Wang Chao's generosity has won the support and love of reporters and the public. even said that Zhang Shengcheng and Lu Wanmei were inhuman, so they almost scolded them for adulterers, adulteress, dogs and men.
This is the reason why Zhang Yi's anger is so angry.
Zhang Shengcheng glanced at the newspaper a few times, unconvinced, and wanted to defend himself, but when he looked at his father's face, he thought that it was better to forget it, opening his mouth at this time was tantamount to adding fuel to the fire.
No matter how lively the news is, there will always be a day when it will be covered up by new news.
The Wang family originally planned to move south after getting married. Now, the marriage did not get married and there was such a big news, so it disappeared in a few days.
With the withdrawal of the Wang family, the popularity of the scandal between Zhang Shengcheng and Lu Wanmei dropped sharply, and the news was completely lost in the newspaper after more than ten days.
After the wind and waves calmed down, to avoid long nights and dreams, Zhang Shengcheng put the marriage on the agenda and held a wedding with Lu Wanmei before the lunar calendar.
Zhang Shengcheng got married, and the Kang family knew that there must be no more Kang Yurong, Kang Runzhi's face was smelly, and the Kang family fell into a haze for a while.
The daughters and sons are all the meat that fell from the mother's body.
Dad doesn't hurt, mother is always loving.
Within two days, Mrs. Kang couldn't help it, crying and clamoring to bring Kang Yurong back.
At first, Kang Runzhi didn't agree, but in the end, he was so troubled by his wife that he couldn't stand it, so he relieved himself and asked Kang Yushu to pick it up.
