Chapter 40
As soon as Mrs. Zhu insisted, Zhu Guida couldn't help but hesitate, and didn't say anything good or bad for a while.
How could the Jiang family not understand that as soon as everything came to the entire Zhu family, Zhu Guida had to think deeply, and it could not be decided based on likes and dislikes alone. Mrs. Zhu values her reputation and future, and Zhu Guida, who was raised by her, how could she not care at all.
Jiang cried and cried before, and made trouble, but now in this situation, he really doesn't have much mental strength, but he just doesn't answer silently with a cold face.
Seeing this, Mrs. Zhu didn't say anything more about persecution, only told her to think about it for herself. In fact, although Mrs. Zhu is willing to be a relative of the Zhao family in her heart, and there is also Zhu Yanmei at both ends, she said that her niece is suitable, and she also took the lead with the people around Mrs. Zhao, but in the end, no one in the Zhu family really has a relationship with the Zhao family, saying that it is a marriage between the two families, and it is still too early to talk about it.
After listening to their discussion, Hongzhu turned her head to look at Zhu Zilan and said, "You go and guard your sister, don't let her stay alone." β
Zhu Zilan thought that she had worried about what her sister would do before...... So she didn't refute this time, nodded silently, turned around and walked into the room, her steps didn't look very brisk.
In the hall, Zhu Yanmei walked out first, saw Hongzhu standing by the door, raised her eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Hongzhu, you don't have to worry, your elder Zhang Luo has your elder Zhang Luo in the affairs of Sister Biyun." β
Hongzhu replied lightly: "I know, with my aunt here, what am I afraid of." He deliberately asked, "What happy event did my aunt encounter?"
I just heard that my niece's fiancΓ© died, wouldn't it be too unkind to say that she had any happy events. Zhu Yanmei was asked by Hongzhu like this, and her face suddenly stopped laughing, and she said nonsense with a stiff face: "...... What's the happy event, Hongzhu is really joking. After speaking, he didn't wait for Hongzhu to ask anything, and went to the stove to boil hot water.
Hongzhu raised her eyebrows, and when she saw that she didn't call her, she pursed her lips secretly. turned around and found her mother, and told her what she had heard.
The Li family had also heard a word or two about the Zhao family before, but she didn't know very well, but now when she heard that it was the Zhao family marrying the second room, she frowned, "What's the matter with your aunt, she actually went back to her mother's house and said such a kiss...... What's so good about being a concubine, no matter how rich and noble it is. Isn't Yanmei going to hurt Biyun like this?" Thinking of what high-sounding words Zhu Yanmei used to persuade her to follow Hongzhu before, Li couldn't help but get angry again, and said, "If I had known that your aunt was such a heart, I wouldn't have talked to her about these things last time." β
Hongzhu heard what she said, and couldn't help but say: "Mother, you just understand, I said earlier that she buried a pit for me to jump, but you didn't believe me." β
Li sighed: "I don't believe you. I was just...... It's just that she doesn't believe in this flesh-and-blood relative, and she calculates it like that, you are not good, what good can she do?"
"Mother, we don't think it's good, but she thinks it's good, she is bent on letting us enjoy wealth. Hongzhu said with great disdain, without any warmth in his eyes.
Li Shi was taken aback by her appearance, and reached out to touch her head, "Hongzhu...... Are you sad?"
Hongzhu smiled reluctantly, stepped forward to hug her, and murmured, "Mother, I only need you and my brother." β
Li's face was full of worry, and he opened his mouth, feeling that this was not good, but he didn't know how to persuade him.
After breakfast, the atmosphere in the courtyard was still dull.
Zhu Biyun woke up there, but she was a little dizzy because she didn't sleep well last night, so Zhu Zilan took this opportunity to let her stay in the room to rest and brought her breakfast. Zhu Biyun's face was hurt, and she was not comfortable in her heart, and she didn't want to leave the room to come out to meet people. And the Zhu family has a tacit understanding, no one from the Deng family came to mourn, and no one in the Zhu family seriously went to sue Zhu Biyun about Deng Jinyu's death.
But according to the rules of Tong'an, if people leave, they will start to report to their relatives and friends, the Zhu family is in-laws, and I am afraid that someone should come at noon.
Hongzhu knew that she couldn't hide it for long. Because of the family affairs of the Deng family yesterday, although Zhu Biyun had an unpleasant quarrel with his parents and elders, he married the person he liked after all...... There is always a hint of sweetness in this bitter heart, right? Now hiding from her, letting her immerse herself in a dream, the longer this time, the deeper the obsession. When she learned the truth, it turned out that the person had long been separated from her forever, how could Zhu Biyun bear it? But if she really wanted Hongzhu to open her mouth with Zhu Biyun, it was difficult for her to do it, so she had to dodge.
Zhu Guida was also upset, the dowry had just been done a little bit and he stopped, neither going out nor staying at home.
Mrs. Zhu was stable at this time, and only let him go to open a shop, saying that the family was in turmoil one after another, and it was one thing to be upset, and it was another thing to do business.
When Zhu Guida heard this, he responded, and went to Zhangluo to open a store when he turned around.
Zhu Yanmei whispered a few words to Mrs. Zhu, and hurriedly went out with a small baggage.
Hongzhu could also guess where she was going, sighed, and didn't want to stay in the courtyard of the Zhu family anymore, so she took Li and Cheng Wenhan to their new shop together.
When I went to the shop, I saw that the three members of the Li family were there. Zhong pulled Li and whispered about Zhu Biyun, and Li was full of sadness and said what happened to the Deng family.
Zhong Shi was shocked when he heard this, thought about it for a long time, and said: "It's really providential, I asked about Biyun before, and I also told Hongzhu a way, so I said that I don't have to worry about this matter, just drag it out for a while, and wait for the results of the Deng family...... It's good if people are good, and if people are bad, it's fine. I don't know that you said that your aunt is unwilling. Now that the matter is getting bigger, the Zhu family's treachery and shameless divorce have come out, and the person is dead again, and Na Kefu ...... Bah, I'm just this one stinky mouth. She smiled apologetically and said to Li: "An Niang, don't blame me. β
Li still understands this point, and only said: "You are very right, I don't know where to go." β
Hongzhu listened to it for a while, and said smartly: "Second uncle, you don't have to scruple, in my heart, I also feel that this matter is my eldest aunt's own doing, and she deserves it if she doesn't get a good one!" After a pause, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "My mother and I are just uncomfortable for Sister Biyun." β
Zhong said: "Individuals have their own fate, she is still young, and there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome. β
There was no definite number for the Zhao family, and Hongzhu was not good at saying it at this time, so she followed Zhong's words, and then talked about their preparations for moving after the New Year.
Second Uncle Li came over and asked worriedly: "Did you have any trouble and quarrel with the Chinese New Year?" and said: "It's okay to move out, in fact, you have already separated from the family, and you will have a grudge after living for a long time." I'm a rough person who doesn't know how to speak, if there's anything difficult to do, don't be afraid of trouble, just open your mouth with me. β
Li knew that it was already very good for Second Uncle Li to help them open this restaurant together, and no matter what she wanted, she couldn't get over it. It was not easy to say much about the Zhu family's desire to marry Hongzhu, so they only said vaguely: "Second brother don't worry, it's fine, there is no quarrel." Because of the small yard at home, Wen Han can't live anymore. Moreover...... I had long thought that when his father's business was done, he should move. It's all planned, and there's nothing to bother. β
Li's statement is also reasonable, and Second Uncle Li and Zhong believe it after thinking about it.
Zhong couldn't help but smile on his face, "Oh, in fact, I wanted to persuade you to move out, but I didn't dare to mention it to you for fear of looking troublesome and mean." She smiled, "I think that I lived with your second uncle Li in my hometown and with his brother and sister-in-law, saying that I was close, but I also had to suffer some grievances from time to time, and it was really a shame that your second uncle married me, otherwise, his daughter-in-law would have run away eight hundred years earlier." β
Second Uncle Li immediately snorted: "You seem to have a good temper when you say this, and you don't know how shy you are, you didn't lose your temper and ran back to your parents' house back then! β
Hongzhu and they already knew about the old days of the two of them, and they couldn't help laughing when they heard it. Even Zhong himself laughed.
Second Uncle Li thought about it again and asked, "What about the house?" He also thought of the side room in the restaurant, so he said: "I moved here, you can move to the house, and you can find a place to save it." β
Hongzhu couldn't help but sigh in her heart when she heard this, Second Uncle Li is really a warm-hearted person, he wants to help them without saying a word, and he doesn't want to trouble his own family.
Hongzhu discussed this matter with the Li family, and the Li family replied: "Second brother, thank you very much." We don't pick and choose, and we can't rent a house to live in. You also have two rooms there, and we can't live in them. β
Zhong said: "Also, Wen Han is big, and he just wants to be more spacious when he moves out, so why do you squeeze into us again." He also said to Second Uncle Li: "We have a lot of things there, and they are miscellaneous, and Anniang is also wronged when they come." β
Second Uncle Li felt that it was a little difficult to do when he heard it, so he thought about it before saying, "Why don't we find another big yard to move together?"
Hongzhu smiled when she heard this, "Second uncle, it's not that I'm not happy to live with you, but we just moved out of the Zhu family, so we live with the second uncle, isn't this a slap in the face for the Zhu family? β
Second Uncle Li also smiled, deliberately glared and asked, "What's the matter, it's not good to be closer than your grandmother?"
Zhong raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Listen, this is really shameless." After a pause, he said, "Okay, Anniang, they have a plan, if they really want us to help." β
The three members of the Cheng family all nodded.
Second Uncle Li was about to say something, but Li looked at Li Nanxing on the other side of the room, and then said with a smile: "Second brother, Wen Han, this kid is messing around, saying that he wants to go to the spring to take the exam for the Xishan Academy, but I can't argue with him, so I have to agree." In fact, I don't want to be admitted this time, I just hope that he will take the test, and then listen to the evaluation of his answers by the gentlemen in the academy. β
After saying this, Second Uncle Li and Zhong had completely different expressions. Zhong thought of the reputation of Xishan Academy, and couldn't help but be moved. But Second Uncle Li pondered about his son, suddenly patted his head, and couldn't help laughing: "Look at my stupid brain, with Nanxing here, it's not easy for you to live in." β
At first glance, it was clueless, but Hongzhu understood it when she thought about it, and she couldn't help but chuckle in her heart.
