Chapter Forty-Six: Zhang's Methods
Thirty tables of banquets are neatly arranged in the inner courtyard, which is particularly festive and lively. As soon as he entered the inner courtyard and looked at most of the young women in the courtyard who were gorgeously dressed and had bright makeup, You Wu secretly cast his eyes on Zhang Jintu on the side. It's just that before he had time to look at him, Zhang Jintu seemed to sense You Wu's gaze, and he also turned his head, and happened to be in front of You Wu's gaze.
You Wu's face was slightly stiff and a little embarrassed, but Zhang Jintu raised his mouth and smiled, bowed his head to her, and seemed to have some apology in his eyes.
Regret? You Wu was stunned, what did he apologize for, he must have seen it wrong, he apologized for no reason! Although she thought so in her heart, she looked at the women in the courtyard with various postures, thinking about what kind of woman the Zhang family would be satisfied with. If you can satisfy the Zhang family......
You Wu tilted his head slightly, looking at Zhang Jintu's side face, in fact, he seemed to be quite good!
"Gone!" A deep voice sounded abruptly behind his ears, and You Wu flashed and returned to reality.
Recalling his previous thoughts, a blush quietly rose on You Wu's face, and he secretly scolded himself for thinking wildly. Suddenly, there was a heat behind her, You Wu's face was already full of redness, she seemed to feel that her thoughts had been discovered by others just now, You Wu instantly became angry, turned around sharply, and glared at the person behind her angrily.
But this gaze fell on the eyes of Wen Nan, who was a little sullen, but You Wu was particularly shy and vivid, and the slender peach blossom eyes opened slightly, looking a little cute, but soon, Wen Nan covered this look and put on a smile that charmed all beings, but this smile was more relaxed and happy than just now, and there was a trace of dullness and depression, which made the young girls in the courtyard surprised, full of shyness, but reluctant to lower their eyes.
Noticing the movement here, several people stood up at the first table of the banquet, and one of them called to this side: "Jintu! ”
Zhang Jintu immediately turned around, nodded to the person who called him, and then said, "Brother Wen, my father is over there." ”
You Wu didn't speak, took a detour behind Wen Nan, and followed the group. When she arrived, she looked up slightly, and the man in charge looked upright and awe-inspiring, as if he was the prefect of Yancheng - Zhang Daosheng, and the noble lady standing next to him on his left hand should be Mrs. Zhang. You Wu continued to look to the right, and the person on the right turned out to be the man who had stopped You Wu at the rockery earlier.
At this time, Zhang Jintu said to the man: "Father, second uncle, this is Wen Nan and You Cheng, and in the back, it is Miss You." ”
Hearing this, Zhang Daosheng's expression flashed, and then he asked with a smile: "Wen Nan, but the young master of the Wen family in the capital?" ”
Hearing Governor Zhang's question, everyone's expressions were different, and the one that made You Wu feel the most unusual was the man on the right hand side of Governor Zhang's mansion. Just now, Zhang Jintu called him the second uncle, then he is the second master of the Zhang family. It's just that You Wu compared the appearance of Governor Zhang and Second Master Zhang, and felt that these two people were too different! One has a righteous and soft complexion, while the other has a hideous evil aura in his face, which is really weird.
"Wen Nan is indeed a member of the Wen family in the capital, but he doesn't dare to be the young master of the Wen family." Wen Nan politely denied it, but he didn't elaborate.
Saying this, Governor Zhang's expression did not change much, but the man beside him relaxed, changing his previous vigilance and alienation. You Wu was suspicious in his heart, his eyes turned to Wen Nan, and he was even more curious about Wen Nan's identity, but the second master of the Zhang family seemed to have some ...... about the name of the young master of the Wen family Overreacted, You Wu was full of doubts in his heart, and he didn't notice the dynamics next to him. It wasn't until You Cheng pulled her sleeve that You Wu withdrew the eyes that were glued to Wen Nan's body that she noticed everyone's gaze.
"Wennan Gongzi Yushu is in the wind, don't talk about Miss You, I'm afraid that the ladies in the courtyard are fascinated, no hindrance, no hindrance." Zhang Daosheng smiled, as if he was explaining to You Wu. Everyone laughed too, but they didn't know whether to laugh heartily or chuckle with disdain.
Fortunately, You Wu didn't care, his face was calm, he didn't get angry or laugh, but he made the people around him laugh without laughing, and he could only slowly restrain his smile.
"Wu'er, come here." At the next table, You Haili's face was cold, obviously angry. And You Bowen suppressed him under the table to prevent him from making trouble impulsively, others don't know, how could his You family not know, Zhang Daosheng is obviously trying to relieve Wu'er, but in fact, he wants to completely ruin Wu'er's reputation, so that she can't marry into the Zhang family. The dignified prefect of Yancheng actually used such a method, You Bowen sneered in his heart, but his face was calm and traceless.
Without saying a word to the Zhang family, and without saluting and leaving, You Wu turned around and walked towards the table of his uncle and father. Everyone was stunned, obviously they didn't expect You Wu to be so bold and reckless, so rude. But she had You Haili and them to protect her, and Zhang Daosheng couldn't do anything about them, so they could only knock out their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs.
"Father, let's have a feast!" Zhang Jintu's face was very dull, although he had fire in his heart for his father, he couldn't make conflicts between outsiders in front of outsiders, so he could only make a half-reminder and half-warning.
Hearing this, Zhang Daosheng glanced at him, and then smiled at everyone: "Come to the table!" Then, Wen Nan was invited to the table, and on the side, You Cheng saw that the master sat down with the Zhang family, looked back at You Wu and them, and could only follow Wen Nan into the Zhang family's table.
In the inner courtyard, there are many girls' houses, and this meal is even more peaceful, and occasionally there are two chuckles, and it quickly quiets down. I don't know what other people do, although the dishes at the banquet are all kinds of peculiar, but in such an environment, You Wu is like chewing wax.
After finishing this meal in a hurry, it was still early, although You Wu wanted to go back to the other courtyard, but the world had been uneven recently, and Wen Nan, who could walk with her, was entangled by the Zhang family, so You Cheng asked her to wait for a while. But You Wu really didn't want to stay in Zhang's house for long, so he decided to go back to You's house with his father first, and then meet after they were over.
Outside the gate of Zhangfu, the carriages of various households left one after another, and the You family also drove in the direction of Sheng'an Street, and the carriage passed by in a flash, and the curtain was slightly raised. In the car, You Wu was talking to her aunt, and she didn't notice that in a carriage next to the lane, the curtain was lifted, and a pair of slender and calculating eyes kept staring at the direction they were going, and the car was weird.
"Ma Er, you go and keep an eye on it, and report to me at any time." Lin Yueming instructed a man next to the car. When the man heard this, he immediately chased after him, and his feet were not slower than the horse's steps. Seeing him disappear from view, Lin Yueming lowered the car curtain. But he was not the only one in the car.
"Brother, this time, you must teach that cheap person a good lesson, she dares to humiliate me in public, I must make her look good." Lin Yuejiao's face was hideous, as if she thought of You Wu's tragic situation, and a weird smile appeared on her face. At this moment, her half-raised wrist was already high and swollen, and it looked like it was almost a circle around her wrist, which was particularly penetrating.
Lin Yueming glanced at her wrist and warned in a low voice: "You have been a little quiet recently, and it is not yet time to be arrogant." ”
Hearing this, Lin Yuejiao pursed her lips, and her mouth was disdainful: "Anyway, the You family is ......."
"Lin Yuejiao!" With a low and angry reprimand, Lin Yuejiao was shocked, her lips were tightly closed, and she didn't dare to say more.
