[156] Convincing the Zhang family (second watch)
() Tongfu Village, Zhangjia.
Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang sat in the hall with a pale face, the eldest brother of the Zhang family opened his mouth in shock, and opposite them, Zhang Qiaoting and Tiandong knelt on the ground and looked at them with firm expressions.
Tiandong doesn't like to drag mud and water, and he doesn't want any accidents between himself and Zhang Qiaoting, after coming to the Zhang family, he is like in front of Qin Shuang and Ah Chen, he doesn't shy away from it, he will say whatever he wants, and he will do his best to protect Zhang Qiaoting, and he will do his best to protect her, and he will protect their children in the future, all of which are clear and categorical.
The uncompromising attitude is of course so obvious that it's hard to ignore.
Although Zhang Qiaoting's face was slightly pale because of the guilt of her family, her expression was also unwavering, and she made it clear that she had made up her mind to advance and retreat with Tiandong
Good husband in China, local tyrant, let's be husband and wife!.
After the two confessed like the Zhang family, the three members of the Zhang family had such an expression, the atmosphere in the hall was quite stagnant, no one spoke, the air seemed to be condensed together, and after a while, Aunt Zhang muttered in a low voice: "No wonder I said I wanted to give you a kiss before, but you shirked it in every possible way, it turned out that it was because he was ......"
The three members of the Zhang family have to go to Ruyizhuang every once in a while to deliver small dishes, not to mention that they have recognized all the people in Ruyizhuang, but the people of the Dizi Group patrol everywhere in the village, compared to the two or three groups of people who are busy in each courtyard, but most of them are remembered by the Zhang family, Tiandong is the No. 1 of the Dizi Group, the person in charge of the Dizi Group, is also a familiar face in Ruyizhuang, the Zhang family naturally remembers him, and also knows his approximate status and treatment in Ruyizhuang.
Thinking about the conditions of the person she wants to marry before Zhang Qiaoting said, she is a head taller than her, has a calm personality, and her salary is not less than her, and she will not object to her continuing to work in Ruyizhuang after getting married, and she will not worry about the vegetable recipe in her head, Tiandong is a person from Ruyizhuang, and signed a death deed, of course, she will not worry about her recipe, others are also in the village, Zhang Qiaoting continues to work in the village so that the two of them can meet every day, this is the day of Tiandong, no wonder she said so smoothly that day, Dare to love is to take out the conditions of Tiandong itself!
Uncle Zhang slapped the table with a dark face and said in a deep voice: "Nonsense! I would never agree with that! ”
"Qiaoting, why are you, why can't you think about it like this!" Aunt Zhang also said with a bitter face: "Do you want your future children to also be slaves and slaves on your behalf!" You're trying to us off! ”
Although the eldest brother of the Zhang family is not as angry as the second elder, he also feels that his sister's decision is very outrageous, how can he have a good good family and voluntarily marry a slave person, and he will also bring his own children to slave nationality in the future!
"Sister, you, what kind of foolish words are you talking about! You don't even know what it means to be a slave! The eldest brother of the Zhang family said hurriedly: "Besides, have you ever considered what the people in the village will say about our family if you really become a slave?" What do you say about our parents? You want your father and mother to be poked in the back! ”
Zhang Qiaoting's face turned pale, her eyes were red, and she bit her lower lip as if she wanted to say something, but Tiandong took the first step to speak: "We know that such a decision will definitely make you feel wronged and gossip, but is it because outsiders gossip, do you want Tingting to marry someone she doesn't like at all, just to block those people's mouths?" In your hearts, Tingting's lifelong happiness is not as good as the gossip of outsiders? ”
"We didn't say that! Don't talk nonsense! "The eldest brother of the Zhang family doesn't have a good face for Tiandong, if this guy hadn't taken away his sister's soul, how could today's incident happen.
Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang also complained about Tiandong as the culprit, but Tiandong is a person from Ruyizhuang, a person from Qin Shuang and A Chen, Qin Shuang's little couple is too kind to their Zhang family, and the reason why the Zhang family is living better and better is because of their help.
Uncle Zhang was holding his breath for a moment and wanted to simply break off the relationship with Ruyizhuang and let Zhang Qiaoting leave, they didn't need Qin Shuang's help, wouldn't it be okay? I'd rather not have to live a too rich life in the future, at least I don't have to let Zhang Qiaoting marry Tiandong and become a slave!
But he quickly dispelled this idea again, because in the eyes of outsiders, even he himself knew that it was clearly ungrateful, the money was earned, and his life had already improved, the Zhang family had gained too many benefits, and he had not been able to repay anything but he was going to break off the relationship with Ruyizhuang because of Zhang Qiaoting's matter, and even took Zhang Qiaoting, who was in charge of the entire Sichuan Cuisine Courtyard in Ruyizhuang, away, wouldn't this make Ruyizhuang lose a lot of money? Moreover, the original note did not allow Zhang Qiaoting to leave as soon as she said it.
can't take Zhang Qiaoting home, and can't just find her an in-law to marry, isn't it as if she happened to be said by Tiandong, they want to marry Zhang Qiaoting casually because of the gossip of outsiders?
This doesn't work, that doesn't work, the second elder of the Zhang family is in a mess, and he doesn't know how to solve this problem, Uncle Zhang can only bite it to death and say: "Anyway, I won't agree in Hejian City!" Die to this heart! Qiaoting, we can not force you to marry first, but if you want to become a slave, we will never agree, you are also confused, just because of a momentary relationship, you will bury your whole life into it, and you will also involve innocent children, how can you bear it! ”
Tiandong frowned when he heard this, what does it mean to bury a lifetime? Marry him, he will naturally be good to Zhang Qiaoting, except for the good family to become a slave, the rest is honest, with his own master as the backing, he is not afraid, he also has the confidence that he can be good to his wife and children, how to listen to the meaning of the second elder of the Zhang family Marrying him is like a sheep in the mouth of a tiger
The road of struggle in life.
Considering that the second elder also cares about Zhang Qiaoting, these are expected, Tiandong will not have any opinions on the second elder, but still promised in a firm tone: "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, don't worry, Tingting marries me, I will never let her be wronged, just like I just promised you, even if I die, I will never let her have anything to do." ”
Aunt Zhang said angrily: "You promise, what is the use of your promise!" Who wouldn't say nice words, even if you can protect her, she will have to be enslaved, and my grandson will also be enslaved in the future, can you bear to let your own daughter-in-law and future children also be enslaved! Aren't you harmful? ”
Tiandong said patiently: "Aunt Zhang, joining a slave does not mean that you will not be able to live a good life in the future, you see all the people in Ruyi Village recruited by the master, aren't we all slaves?" But with the protection of the master, each of us can live a good life with food and clothing, slavery does not have any effect on us, I just want to marry someone I like, and I also like me to support the two of them for a lifetime, what's wrong with this? Am I harming others if I want to marry a daughter-in-law? If so, what does Aunt Zhang mean is that all the people in Ruyizhuang have to live alone for the rest of their lives? Is it that people like us are not even allowed to have a caring person for the rest of their lives, and can only die alone, and when they die, they don't even have a person to send to their ends, just because our daughters-in-law and our children will be slaves? ”
Tiandong's tone was very calm, but the words he said made the three members of the Zhang family, as well as Zhang Qiaoting, feel sour in their hearts, they are all good families, even if their ancestors are not too rich, they have not sold themselves into slavery, and they can't feel that feeling, but they feel that if the slave is in trouble, they can't get the protection of the yamen, and they are lowly in the eyes of everyone, and they can't get on the stage, but because they are slaves, they are really not allowed to even get married, and they can only die alone?
The Zhang family knew that the people in Ruyizhuang were slaves, but they never looked down on them, but when it came to Zhang Qiaoting, their attitude was so intense, but listening to Tiandong say such things, they were a little ashamed and distressed in their hearts, and they also knew that the people of Ruyizhuang were all good people in the past, but they only became displaced people when they encountered the ground shaking disaster in Zhoushui County, and then they were included in the village by Qin Shuang.
Signing the deed of sale is all about living, what's wrong with that in itself? Is it just that in order not to become a slave, do you have to have the backbone to rather starve to death than bow your head? In the face of life, the root of a good slave is the most irrelevant thing, even if you are a good person, you can't even fill your stomach, will life be good? But they signed a deed of sale and stayed in Ruyi Village, but they could learn knowledge that many people couldn't learn, and they could live a good life that many people couldn't live.
Tiandong has never regretted signing a death contract to serve Qin Shuang and Ah Chen, he has been able to live so far, thanks to their blessings, even today, he doesn't think that the status of slavery is an obstacle that hinders him and Zhang Qiaoting from being together, what hinders them is just some secular prejudices and some deep-rooted ideas in the feudal era.
He believes that as long as Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang really love Zhang Qiaoting, they will compromise in the end, so he doesn't mind unveiling his inner thoughts in front of them, dissecting himself, pleading sincerely, just a little more sympathy, as long as he can make them nod, it doesn't matter.
Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang in Tiandong's confession and analysis rhetorical question, the attitude of firm opposition has already shown signs of loosening, they are not evil people, if it were not for the too great influence of slavery on Zhang Qiaoting in the future, they would not have to break up a pair of lovers, so that their daughters will not be able to live happily in the future, but, even if it is loosened, the deep-rooted ideas still cannot be completely dissipated with just a few words from Tiandong.
It's just that the two elders, including the eldest brother of the Zhang family, have eased a lot in their attitude towards Tiandong, and they feel that Tiandong is not easy, they are too unkind to embarrass him like this, if they strongly oppose it, wouldn't it make people feel like what Tiandong said, they also think that Tiandong can't marry a wife and have children, and must be lonely for the rest of his life? Such a bad act, the simple Zhang family really can't do it.
In a way, Tiandong also grasped the weakness of the Zhang family's kindness and wanted to get their consent, although this is a bit despicable, but he really wants to be with Zhang Qiaoting, for this reason, it is helpless to use some extraordinary means, it is a big deal that he will double the compensation of the Zhang family in the future, and treat them as well as Zhang Qiaoting, and he will not let them regret it after all.
Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang still didn't nod, but the atmosphere in the hall was indeed better than at the beginning, Aunt Zhang looked at Tiandong and Zhang Qiaoting holding hands, and her heart was awkward and a little hateful, and she impulsively wanted to simply lock Zhang Qiaoting at home for a few days, let her calm and calm her head, maybe she would soon come to her senses and change her mind? But every time I think that my daughter may resent me at that time, I am a little reluctant
Dictatorial husband: Wife, you are my favorite. At the same time, Zhang Qiaoting's attitude of disobeying them as a father and mother together with Tiandong and turning her elbows out before she got married also made her heart extremely sour and mixed.
"Does Qin Shuang know about you?" Uncle Zhang suddenly asked.
Aunt Zhang also sighed, looked at Tiandong and Zhang Qiaoting, and showed a hint of hope on her face: "Yes, have you told Qin Shuang about it?" Tiandong is a person from Ruyizhuang, and the deed of sale signed by Qin Shuang was also signed by Qin Shuang, and the marriage was also approved by her. ”
Zhang Qiaoting said: "Mother, we have already sued Qin Shuang and Ah Chen, they know." ”
Aunt Zhang hurriedly asked, "Then do they not agree either?" Qin Shuang must also think that you are confused! ”
"Nope!" Zhang Qiaoting shook her head and said, "The matter of feelings is not up to anyone, Qin Shuang did not oppose us. ”
Aunt Zhang's brows suddenly furrowed tightly, "So, does she agree with your business?" ”
Tiandong said: "The master does not object or agree, only let us decide for ourselves, if we can be together in the end, it will be our blessing, if we can never be together, I would rather never marry, and serve by the side of Master Qin Shuang and Master Chen for the rest of my life." ”
Zhang Qiaoting hurriedly followed and said: "If it weren't for marrying Tiandong, I would rather die than marry!" Dad, mother, don't try to force me to marry someone else, I'll die for you! ”
Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang just showed some hesitation because of Tiandong's words, and Zhang Qiaoting's face turned black with anger, "Nonsense! Are you forcing each other to death, trying to force us to comply! ”
"You have stiff wings, and you know that you are threatening your father!" Uncle Zhang trembled angrily.
Tiandong shook his head at Zhang Qiaoting, motioned to her not to speak with his eyes, and said soothingly: "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, don't be angry, Tingting is just too anxious to say anything for a while, your kindness to Tingting is greater than the sky, I won't let Tingting hurt your heart like this." ”
"Dad, mother, don't be angry, Qiao Ting definitely didn't mean to be angry with you." The eldest brother of the Zhang family was also busy persuading, and gently stroked Aunt Zhang's back with his hand.
Zhang Qiaoting also said with some regret: "Daddy, don't be angry, I said the wrong thing." Although she did think so in her heart, it did hurt her father's heart when she said it, which was not her intention.
She likes Tiandong and wants to be with him for the rest of her life, but she also wants to be filial to her father and mother with Tiandong, and she doesn't want to choose one side between the two and give up the other, she can't do it.
Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang snorted for a while before calming down the anger and sourness aroused by Zhang Qiaoting's words, and Aunt Zhang turned her back and secretly wiped her tears.
Zhang Qiaoting felt even more uncomfortable when she saw it, and her heart hurt like a pinprick, and she whispered: "Mother...... I'm sorry. ”
Tiandong didn't want to see Zhang Qiaoting sad, and wanted to take her into his arms to comfort her, but he was afraid that doing so in front of the Zhang family would stimulate them again, so he could only be distressed and continued: "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, I know that it will be difficult for you to accept this matter for a while, but I still hope that you can think about it for Tingting, Tingting doesn't want to break your heart, but we don't want to separate, both sides are people she cares about, and the most difficult thing is her, if you don't agree all the time, she will be sad, I don't want to make my loved one sad, depressed, or even end up losing the one I care about, leaving me with lifelong regrets. ”
The Zhang family just listened silently, and no one spoke.
"I believe that if you really think about Tingting, you will definitely not care about slavery or good status, I just hope that she can live happily, if you can agree, Tingting and I will definitely be filial to you in the future, and we will definitely not make you sad again." As he spoke, he took Zhang Qiaoting's hand and kowtowed to them three times, and said, "You can think about it first, and we will go back first today." ”
Go back together? Aunt Zhang reflexively wanted to stop her, but Tiandong said: "Today is a day of vacation that we finally got after asking the master, and we have to go back to work tomorrow, and the Sichuan Cuisine Courtyard is inseparable from Tingting." ”
