Chapter 44: The Turmoil of Confession (1)

The two of them packed up, and Zhang Zizan accompanied Jinyu to the old lady Zhang to say goodbye. The pattern of Zhang's mansion is different from that of the Gao family, Jinyu and they live in the west cross courtyard of Master Zhang's side, with five main rooms, with wings on both sides and a wind and rain corridor in the east-west direction. On the west side of the yard is a grape shelf, and on the east side is a wisteria tree, and behind the wisteria is a green bamboo forest against the wall. The flowers and trees on both sides of the corridor in the middle of the courtyard are furnished, and the whole courtyard is neat and elegant. Jinyu fell in love with this small courtyard almost immediately. After passing through the long wind and rain corridor, I had to pass through Qingfeng Garden, the garden of Zhang Zizan's brother Zhang Ziqian. The layout of Qingfeng Garden is similar to the Qingyu Garden where Jinyu and the others live, but there is a small garden in the back with a small goldfish pond in it. Mr. and Mrs. Zhang's main house is in the southernmost part. Mrs. Zhang lives in the southeast of their yard, which is the largest courtyard. It is also the place where the house of Master Zhang and Second Master Zhang is adjacent. The two families have to go there every day to greet the sick and say hello, so it is also the most lively place.

There weren't many people there in the morning for Mrs. Zhang, and the mother-in-law who was cleaning in the yard was stunned for a moment when she saw Jinyu and his wife, and then reacted: "To the second young master, the second young grandmother, please be safe!" Her voice was a little loud, and Jinyu was a little strange. However, he still smiled and ordered Hongxing to give a purse. The woman took the purse with a smile on her face, and then lowered her voice and said, "Second young master, you came here so early?" The old lady hasn't woken up yet, and Mrs. Gu and Miss Cousin are watching! A trace of unnaturalness flashed on Zhang Zizan's face, and then he said: "Since my grandfather hasn't woken up yet, then we won't disturb his old man." Later, when he wakes up, you will come back to the old lady and tell us. With that, he turned around and pulled Jinyu away. Jinyu felt a little strange in Zhang Zizan's reaction, but she still walked out with him. "Zan'er, why don't you come in and sit down? Since you're here to salute your grandfather, why can't you wait for a moment? have become pro-people, or don't you understand the rules at all? It was a woman of about forty years of age, dressed in a long skirt of satin fabric with large flowers, and a Lingyun bun combed on her head, which was full of pearls and emeralds. Rong has a long face, and her facial features are still charming, if she is ten years younger, Jinyu does not doubt that she is definitely a beauty. But now she looks a little nondescript, she originally had a seven-point appearance, but she was pressed down by five points by her dressing like this. I don't know why, she looked at Jinyu with a rather unfriendly look: "This is your bride?" It is said to be the daughter of the Gao family? Doesn't it seem like a bit of a misnomer! Isn't it as pretty as the legend says! "Which one is this singing? Jinyu was a little annoyed, what is the identity of this woman? Why point fingers here? Zhang Zizan said with a cold face to her: "If Auntie is going to let us see us like this, we don't have anything to say!" Grandfather is asleep now, and we are not convenient to disturb. That's it! As he spoke, he took Jinyu's hand, turned around and left. The woman's face turned red: "Zizan, how can you talk to me like this?" You negative man who likes the new and hates the old! Have pity on my Jasmine! She almost burst into tears as she spoke. Jinyu's heart was on fire, how could she touch such a moldy head early in the morning? Does this woman know what she is talking about? How can anyone do this to the elders? And when she heard her voice, a girl dressed in red and green helped a girl in a goose yellow shirt out of the house. As soon as the girl came out, her two eyes were fixed on Zhang Zizan: "Cousin, how can you talk to my mother like this?" My mother is the one who hurts me the most. Why, as soon as you get married now, are you going to leave our two orphans and widows aside? The girl said with tears in her eyes, looking like a pear blossom with rain. Zhang Zizan was stammered by her, obviously not knowing how to deal with it. Jinyu listened to it, but she couldn't say uncomfortable, these two mothers are purely unhappy for themselves today! Looking at Zhang Zizan, who had a difficult face, she couldn't help it, and just wanted to speak, but heard the green smoke beside her already speak: "This must be Miss Biao?" I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to talk like that, right? Speaking of which, our young lady and aunt were married yesterday, and they are both married by the Ming media and have worshiped heaven and earth seriously. You and our uncle are friends who grew up together, even if our uncle becomes a relative, you relatives must be recognized. I have never left behind your orphans and widows. Miss speaks but thinks carefully, you have to go out of the cabinet in the future! Hearing her say this, Mo Zhang's face was raised and he shouted, "Where did this unruly come from?" How can there be a reason for the master to speak and she comes out to talk back? Don't call me out yet? When she finished speaking, no one around her dared to do anything. Zhang Zizan's cold expression obviously made people dare not act rashly. And Jinyu wasn't going to speak, she wanted to see what the two of them had today. Seeing that no one made a move, the Mo Zhang family couldn't hold it back, and actually cried all of a sudden: "Jasmine, it's hard for you to serve your grandfather here every day for your cousin, but he is so cold-hearted!" Helping outsiders bully us! ”

The people in the courtyard hid when they heard her cry, and it was clear that such a scene had been staged more than once. Such an unseemly thing, Jinyu is the first time to meet it. It's definitely not okay to ignore it, but now it's only herself and Zhang Zizan here, and she doesn't know what happened to Zhang Zizan and his cousin, but now is not the time to pursue it. After thinking for a while, Jinyu pulled the red apricot and whispered a few words in her ear. Hongxing took the order. Jinyu stepped forward with a smile and bowed: "Jinyu has seen my aunt!" Auntie, don't cry, my grandfather's body will definitely heal. Aunt doesn't have to be in a hurry. Be careful of breaking your body again. There is something that our juniors are willing to serve, my aunt and cousin have been serving my grandfather here, I must be very tired, let's go and rest first! "Where is this? What Jinyu said didn't match the woman's words, but there were still smart people. Among the servants who were dodging at first, some of them were bold enough to hear Jinyu's words, and hurriedly stepped forward to support the woman, saying, "Isn't Mrs. Gu tired and dizzy?" I've been staying here last night, but I didn't even see it! If the master knows, he will blame us for being lazy. Mrs. Aunt, let's help you go down and rest for a while, the old lady will come over later!" Jinyu noticed that the woman was supported by a mother-in-law who was over half a hundred years old, with a stout figure and seemed to have a lot of strength. And as soon as she made a move, the subordinates around her responded one after another, obviously a leader. Although she didn't interrupt when the so-called aunt said strange things before, at least she knows how to come out now. To make amends, Jinyu decided not to bother with her. So he smiled and nodded to her: "What this lady said is, hurry up and help Mrs. Fu Gu to rest!" So Mo Zhang and Jasmine were half-supported and half-dragged away by a group of mothers-in-law around them in their ignorance. Is that okay too? Zhang Zizan looked dumbfounded from the sidelines. After they walked away, they couldn't help but praise Jinyu: "The lady is witty, admire her husband!" Jinyu didn't speak, just looked at him deeply.

"Sir, madam, are you here too?" A voice of greeting was heard in the courtyard, and it was Master Zhang and Mrs. Zhang who heard the news. Seeing that the courtyard was calm, as if nothing had happened, Master Zhang was a little suspicious. I don't know my sister's personality anymore. Because she forcibly refused to let her son kiss her daughter, she was quite angry. Early this morning, I heard the servant report that she was on my father's side, and I thought that something was wrong, and the second husband and wife would definitely go to the old lady early in the morning to ask for peace, and when she saw the second child, there would be no good things. So as soon as he heard the second daughter-in-law's maid report that his wife was tired, he immediately rushed over with his wife. Without him, he is really afraid that his sister will make some trouble, firstly, the ugliness of the family cannot be publicized, and firstly, the new daughter-in-law will not look good. Now the courtyard is actually quiet and quiet, only the second husband and wife are standing there, haven't they met yet? Or, already quarrelsome? But I don't know how to ask that. Zhang Zizan saw his parents coming, and hurriedly pulled Jinyu to ask for peace together. Mrs. Zhang held Jinyu's hand and said, "Good boy." And he went into the house with her.
