Chapter 21 Listening to Gossip in the Tea House 2

Speaking of which, Lin Yu really doesn't know much about his titular rival Zhang Wan'er. When she was in the Hou Mansion, Mrs. Lin gave a ban, and few dared to mention it, and it was vague to mention it. Lin Yu only knew that the other party was the eldest lady of the Zhang family, who was a wealthy man in Shuzhong, and the Zhang family seemed to make a fortune by producing glass. And although the predecessor of this body committed suicide to some extent because of Zhang Wan'er, because leaving the house was in line with Lin Yu's wishes, he didn't have much envy for Zhang Wan'er.

Later, when she met Zhang Wan'er, Lin Yu got a little memory of Lin Ruoyu herself, but almost all of these memories were that cousin Zhenyuan Marquis Lu Pingzhi, which made Lin Yu very crooked. Of course, there was also a little bit of Zhang Wan'er involved in it - Lin Ruoyu sneaked out of the Lu and found the Zhang family and scolded Zhang Wan'er for being a vixen. As a result, she was slapped twice and kicked by her longing cousin, which was the direct reason for Lin Ruoyu's suicide.

Of course, after Zhang Wan'er almost killed herself indirectly, no matter how stupid Lin Yu was, it was impossible for Zhang Wan'er to coexist peacefully. Although Lin Yu will not regard revenge as the goal of her life, she is not opposed to falling into the well or anything, such as making a glass production recipe and selling it to the competitors of the Zhang family and the Hou Mansion.

However, this did not allow her to know more about Zhang Wan'er and the Zhang family. So at this moment, she is particularly interested in the gossip at the next table. There were four people at the adjacent table, two of whom were merchants from Shudi, who heard a little news in Beijing and were inquiring about it from their relatives. At this time, his relatives were also curious about the real situation of the Zhang family and Zhang Wan'er's reputation. When Lin Yu came, this gossip had just begun to be preached, and it was starting from the Zhang family's fortune.

It turned out that eleven years ago, the Zhang family was a medium-sized businessman, and the main business was Shu brocade and satin, and they suddenly began to change to glass. Legend has it that the glass recipe was pointed out by the immortal in a dream, Lin Yu scoffed at this statement, what an immortal, he must not know which traverser Lu Dao is. Lin Yu has always been very curious about this, whether it is Miss Zhang Wan'er or the eldest master of the Zhang family who is a traverser, or someone else who gave the glass recipe to the Zhang family.

But as the narration of the adjacent table deepened, Lin Yu determined that the traverser must be that Zhang Wan'er. Judging from Zhang Wan'er that Lin Yu has seen, the IQ is not easy to say, anyway, the EQ is not very high. Anyway, just like her, Lin Yu didn't believe that she could write poetry at the age of six, compose lyrics at the age of seven, be able to read calligraphy and painting at the age of ten, manage a lot of business at the age of thirteen, and know some martial arts, so that she could accidentally save Comrade Lu Pingzhi, Marquis of Zhenyuan.

However, what made Lin Yu a little unhappy was that Zhang Wan'er's reputation in Shu was quite good. Zhang Wan'er is not only beautiful and versatile, but also kind-hearted, has helped many poor people, and administers medicine twice a year. Lin Yu recalled the ferocity when she slapped herself, and she couldn't imagine her doing good deeds at all. This also explains why she asked the Marquis of Zhenyuan to divorce his wife and send a concubine. After all, it is a modern woman, as long as she is not brain-dead, it is impossible to work with others.

Probably she also felt that these people were the third party she loved, Lin Yu recalled Zhang Wan'er's attitude, and became more and more convinced of this idea. Because Lin Yu found that the other party did not have the guilt of interfering in other people's marriages at all. Zhang Wan'er probably thought that these ancient people were third parties and should not exist, and when she saw Lin Yu, she was resentful of dealing with the third party. Not to mention who is the third party in terms of morality and emotion, Zhang Wan'er's attitude towards ancient people as if they were nothing is something that Lin Yu completely disagrees with.

If Lin Yu had expected that she would be as smooth as Zhang Wan'er when she first wore it, she had realized that it was not so simple. In fact, who dares to guarantee that the ancients would be cannon fodder as a matter of course? Ancient people are also human beings, and although their knowledge may not be comparable with that of modern people, they have a deeper understanding of ancient times and a more stable foundation. And the IQ and EQ of the traverser may not be higher than others, for example, if Lin Yu is worn to Wu Zetian's position, one is allowed to wear one and one to die. Even if you don't mention the kind of bull like Wu Zetian, it is the Qingqing around her, and Lin Yu feels that she is not as good as others, not to mention other people.

Lin Yu couldn't help but think of Yin Susu, who had a peerless elegance. Lin Yu is sure that if Yin Susu has a little affection for Lu Pingzhi, with her beauty and scheming, I am afraid that Zhang Wan'er will not want to get involved. However, it is one thing to want to leave yourself, and it is another thing to be driven away by others. It was an optimist like Lin Yu who felt a trace of insult and hatred when he left the Hou Mansion, not to mention Yin Susu, the original hostess of the Hou Mansion.

It seems that people should suffer some setbacks from time to time, and it is easy to be proud if it is too smooth. Lin Yu has not been deep for a long time, and after a struggle, he feels that it is better to live in the present. Seeing that the hot tea and snacks have been served to the table, let's enjoy the moment.

Lin Yu likes to taste the different tastes of different foods, looking at the four small plates of delicate dim sum, Lin Yu is a little undecided. One of the dishes is a small siu mai with fresh meat, a plate of steamed peanut cake, which have all been eaten, the other dish is a small steamed bun dyed pink with peach blossoms, and the other dish is a cream noodle fruit, I don't know what is the difference between Lu Dao and cookies. Lin Yu hesitated, but decided to eat the peach blossom buns first.

After taking a bite, Lin Yu felt a little disappointed, the dough was dyed with rose juice and another flower juice that had never been tasted, with a faint floral fragrance and a slight spicy, and the floral fragrance blended well with the wheat fragrance of fresh flour. But the filling turned out to be only brown sugar, and the strong flavor and heavy sweetness of brown sugar suddenly overshadowed the fresh taste of the dough.

At this time, Qingqing and Lin Yun's discussion on how to bargain came to an end temporarily, and they happened to see Lin Yu's expression change. Qingqing thought it was very interesting, as if Lin Yu had become picky about eating since she woke up last time. She was about to speak when she heard the voices of the four gossip men at the next table suddenly rise and attract her attention.

"Brother Sun, what you said is true? When was the engagement? A tall, thin man asked the fat man opposite, surprised. Is Marquis Lu still willing to marry the eldest lady of the Zhang family? ”

"What am I going to do with you? It's true, the marriage is quietly decided. The fat man said, "You also know that Brother Lu Dao and I are in the silk business, and I am well-informed in this regard." The Hou Mansion is buying red silk and a lot of other silks, which looks like they are preparing for marriage. ”

"I really didn't expect Lu Hou Ye to be so infatuated." One guy sighed. "Such a fierce jealous woman is willing to marry into the door."

"You say, could it be that the eldest lady of the Zhang family has it?" The other guy whispered obscenely, "I really can't say, otherwise why would the old lady of the Hou Mansion also agree." You must know that the Marquis of Zhenyuan has no heirs yet. ”

This kind of small talk will not be said loudly by the other party, and several people will not be able to hear it. Lin Yu and Qingqing glanced at each other, and Qingqing said disdainfully, "It's really cheap that vixen." Speaking of Zhang Wan'er, she couldn't help but think of the desperate mood that day.
