Mrs. Zhang's fierce opposition to this family affair was expected by Zhang Shaotian.

He knelt on the ground, lowered his eyebrows, and kept putting on a deferential posture, and waited for Mrs. Zhang to scold her mouth dry, then she raised her head and said with a hippie smile: "Mother, take a break, how about my son make you a cup of tea?" ”

Mrs. Zhang saw that she had said so many times in her heart, she beat and scolded, but this son was as dead as drilling the tip of the horns, and he couldn't get up in one breath, only felt pain in his ribs, and almost fainted.

Zhang Shaotian hurriedly got up from the ground, and while beating Mrs. Zhang's back, he ordered someone to fry a bowl of thick hooked rattan soup, and personally served Mrs. Zhang to drink.

Mrs. Zhang's breath eased up.

She took Zhang Shaotian's hand, and tears flowed down: "Fourth, my mother has been telling you for so long, have you listened to it?" ”

"Mother, I can save it." Zhang Shaotian pursed his lips, "I'm not a teenager anymore. I know what I'm doing and what kind of wife I'm going to marry. Mother, to tell you a word from the heart, you don't care about me, just drink your daughter-in-law's tea happily, and maybe you can hold your son's grandson in the future! ”

Old Madam Zhang's face sank, and she glanced at Zhang Shaotian, "You say this, are you unrepentant?" Do you really want to marry that woman who has had no luck, has had two children, and has been seriously ill? ”

Zhang Shaotian grinned, and looked at him left and right, "Actually, you don't have to be angry, people haven't agreed to marry me yet." ”

"Will she say yes?!" Old Madam Zhang's anger came up again, "On your terms." Not to mention her, even the big girls of the Sanhou and Wuxiang families who are more than ten years younger than her, fifteen or sixteen years old. are all rushing to marry you! Will she marry or not?! As long as you mention kissing, you can't get rid of it! ”

“…… It's good that I can't get rid of it......" Zhang Shaotian muttered in a low voice, rubbing his temples with his hand.

"What did you say?" Old Madam Zhang was old, her ears were a little back, and she didn't hear what Zhang Shaotian whispered clearly.

Zhang Shaotian said with a smile: "I mean, my mother thinks too much, and people really haven't agreed yet." You're making such a fuss now. Do you want your son not to marry a wife for the rest of his life? The son didn't do anything like this, and the son went to be a monk. Anyway, there are many Jinshi in the Zhang family, so it is better to put this phase in the position. Let's do it for the Zhang family on the side branch. ”

"Nonsense!" Mrs. Zhang took a cane and pestle to the ground, "This is the position of the deputy minister of this room!" Give it to others, how can we still have our share in the future! ”

"So what do you say? If you want me to continue to be this vice-minister, let me marry her. Otherwise. Don't do it, everybody. Zhang Shaotian is both soft and hard. Just don't let go.

Seeing that these four sons were disobedient, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but feel sad and remembered the benefits of her eldest son.

Although the eldest son Zhang Shaohong is not as capable as the four sons, he is obedient, and he has always obeyed her as a mother, and what she says is what, even if she married a woman she didn't like Zeng Huiyan as his wife, but more than 20 years later. still listened to her words and abandoned Zeng Huiyan, the woman who made her look uncomfortable. married Mrs. Zhang's niece to fill the house.

It's a pity that Zhang Shaohong's stroke this time is too serious, and even if he can recover in the future, he can only survive and save his life, and it is very difficult to get out of bed and walk.

And these four sons have not listened to her as a mother since they were teenagers.

Whether it was taking the imperial examination, or later running away from home and wandering outside for more than ten years before coming back.

Zhang Shaotian has always been a person with ideas.

With such a son, Mrs. Zhang doesn't know whether it's good or not.

This is not a man she can handle, even if this man is her son, she can't do anything about it.

This feeling is really terrible for an old lady who is accustomed to being strong and accustomed to making ideas in everything.

"If your eldest brother can still move, why should I embarrass you?" Old Madam Zhang couldn't help crying again, "Don't you look at your mother's face, look at your eldest brother, look at this big family!" ”

Zhang Shaotian thought of the bedridden eldest brother, and his heart was also very heavy, he lowered his head, sighed, and said, "Mother, how can I ignore this family?" He raised his head and looked at Mrs. Zhang: "If my mother really thinks about this family, just listen to her son and take care of her life at home." The son will be in charge of the outside affairs. ”

Old Madam Zhang chuckled in her heart, and avoided Zhang Shaotian's gaze very uncomfortably, holding her crutches tightly in her hand, and said, "You have never been a deputy minister, my mother just gave you an idea, in case ......"

"Mother, have you ever taken the imperial examination?" Zhang Shaotian stopped Mrs. Zhang's words, "Have you ever walked around outside?" Do you know how big the country is? How many people? How big is the Northern Qi Kingdom? How many people? ”

Mrs. Zhang was speechless for a while.

"You said that I haven't been a deputy minister, but I was born as a Jinshi, and I have been traveling outside for so many years, and after returning to Beijing, I have also entered the court as an official for a few years, and my understanding of the court is really not less than yours. The eldest brother's temperament is different from mine, he needs his mother to give him advice, and I really don't need it. Zhang Shaotian said calmly.

There was a deeper meaning that he didn't say.

If you follow the practices of Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Shaohong, this Zhang family will really be taken to the ditch by them.

Zhang Shaotian didn't want to know what Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Shaohong had done, as the deputy prime minister, he must follow his own mind and start over again, and he can't have anything to do with the eldest brother, of course, he must also abandon the adverse effects of Mrs. Zhang.

And marrying Shen Yongjie is his greatest wish in this life.

If he must marry someone, this person can only be Shen Yongjie, not anyone else.

Old Madam Zhang looked at Zhang Shaotian in a daze, with a tired look on her face, "Fourth, are you complaining about your mother?" However, you must know that the Northern Qi Dynasty is not as big as the Eastern Yuan Kingdom. You don't want to be short-sighted, and the mantis arm blocks the car......"

"Hehe, mantis arm blocking the car? Mother, if your words are known to others, our Zhang family will not be far away. Zhang Shaotian's face was solemn, "Mother, you are from the Northern Qi Dynasty, but you married into the Eastern Yuan Kingdom." is the daughter-in-law of the Dongyuan people. My eldest brother and I, our family, are all from Dongyuan. If you are no longer entangled. I can only offend. ”

He slowly stood up, imposing.

Old Madam Zhang shrank back and said angrily, "How did you talk to your mother?" And is there filial piety?! ”

"Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both. Mother, I don't actually want to choose between loyalty and filial piety, don't embarrass your son. Zhang Shaotian didn't go any further, his face was calm, but what he said was very decisive. Mother, you should have known for a long time that I am not a foolish person. You must not let me choose between the survival of my family and my country and my filial piety. The results can be very sad for you. I really don't want you to be sad, so put away those unnecessary thoughts. ”

Zhang Shaotian turned to leave, leaving Mrs. Zhang slumped on the couch, almost sweating.

This son. It's so disobedient......

Old Madam Zhang looked at Zhang Shaotian's departing back with flickering eyes. Hands trembled slightly.

After Zhang Shaotian left, a maid at the door reported: "Old lady, the eldest lady has come to see you." ”

Old Madam Zhang came back to her senses, "Is Shuyu here?" ”

Zhang Shaohong's house-filling wife, Qi Shuyu, walked in with a plain face.

Qi Shuyu married Zhang Shaohong to fill the house, and she has not yet been sealed, so the Zhang family does not call her a lady, but only a wife.

As soon as she saw Mrs. Zhang, her tears fell. knelt down and said, "Mother, go and ask the doctor again!" The old man's illness. Is there really no hope? ”

She was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and she thought that she would finally climb the high branches and enjoy her happiness, but she didn't expect that less than a year later, the man she relied on would have a stroke......

She gave birth to a young son who was less than a year old.

Old Madam Zhang looked at her with pity and said, "Don't worry, I have already sent a letter back to my mother's family in Northern Qi and asked them if they have any divine doctors to recommend them." ”

Qi Shuyu nodded and served Mrs. Zhang for lunch.

At this time, Zhang Zhenqin went back to her parents' house to visit her father, who was sick in bed.

When she came to the courtyard where Zhang Shaohong lived, she found that only the maid was serving here, so she couldn't help sneering and asked, "Where is the eldest lady?" Where did you go? ”

In the past, she pestered Zhang Shaohong every day to flatter, but now that Zhang Shaohong is sick, she can't see anyone?

Hehe, how can it be so easy?

I saw the thief eating meat, and now it is time for the thief to be beaten.

Zhang Zhenqin was sitting in the upper room and instructed the maid: "My father is seriously ill this time, you must serve well." If anyone is not satisfied, I will return to my grandmother and fourth uncle, I must make you look good! ”

The maid in the house hurriedly said, "The eldest lady went to the old lady's yard." ”

"My grandmother has someone to serve, and now my father is seriously ill in bed, how can she, as a wife, leave her husband behind and only care about pleasing her grandmother? Even if my grandmother knew, she wouldn't be happy. Zhang Zhenqin had a smile on the corner of her mouth and slowly stood up.

She took the maid and the maid to the courtyard where Mrs. Zhang lived.

Qi Shuyu had just finished serving Mrs. Zhang and was accompanying Mrs. Zhang to have tea.

She had been busy all morning, and finally sat down to rest for a while.

Zhang Zhenqin walked in and greeted Mrs. Zhang first: "My granddaughter has seen my grandmother." ”

Mrs. Zhang was thinking about her eldest son's goodness, although she had always disliked Zhang Zhenqin, but when she saw Zhang Zhenqin at this time, she was also a little kind to her, and nodded: "You are back, have you seen your father?" ”

Zhang Zhenqin's eyes immediately turned red, wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and said, "Grandmother, I'm just coming back to see my father." I'm so worried about my father's illness. Although I am married, my husband is an understanding person, and he also asked me to come back more often when I have time, and it is good to be filial piety. ”

"You're a good boy, and so is your husband." Mrs. Zhang sighed, she hoped that her eldest son Zhang Shaohong would get better than anyone else, but she also knew that stroke was a disease that came quickly, but it was not easy to cure, so she had been worried.

Zhang Zhenqin asked about Mrs. Zhang's body with concern, and then turned her eyes to Qi Shuyu, who had been sitting silently on the side.

It was this woman who was about the same age as herself who robbed her mother's position......

Zhang Zhenqin will not forget what happened back then.

Her mother is still alive, and this Qi Shuyu has already married Zhang Shaohong and is pregnant.

In order to make room for her, her mother had to be "sick to death".

The revenge of killing the mother is not shared.

However, Qi Shuyu was thinking about the position he had grabbed, but he didn't enjoy a few days of happiness.

Zhang Zhenqin smiled. Qi Shuyu said: "Mrs., my father is seriously ill in bed, you should take care of my father more." He said. On the other hand, he said to Mrs. Zhang: "Grandmother, I know that my wife is a filial person, but my father is too sick to get out of bed now, and I only want my wife to take care of me, can my grandmother be accommodating and let my wife only concentrate on taking care of my father?" Maybe my father sees his wife's coquettish appearance every day, and he is in a good mood. It's better that this disease will get better sooner. ”

Old Madam Zhang listened to it right and hurriedly said to Qi Shuyu: "You don't have to come to serve me in the future." If you are really filial, serve the boss well. He's good. It's just me. If he can be cured, I will treat you as my own daughter from now on! ”

Qi Shuyu's face suddenly turned snow-white, and she looked at Old Madam Zhang in a daze, her lips pursed. It's really hard to say.

As the saying goes, there is no filial son in front of the bed for a long time. This is especially true for halfway couples like them.

Qi Shuyu was envious of Zhang Shaohong's high position and power, so he tried every means to marry him.

I just didn't expect this good life to pass too quickly......

Zhang Zhenqin seemed to know her thoughts, and said with a smile: "The fourth uncle has now succeeded my father as the deputy prime minister, and he is going to marry a wife, so my grandmother has to help the fourth uncle worry more." On my father's side, you can leave it all to your wife. ”

Mrs. Zhang had a headache when she thought of Zhang Shaotian's family affairs, and at this time she also felt that she really needed to work harder. He waved his hand, "You guys go and take care of the boss." I don't need you here. ”

"Yes, grandmother." Zhang Zhenqin smiled and bowed and retreated.

When Qi Shuyu heard Zhang Shaotian's news, she was really burned inside, and her heart was about to come out, her feet seemed to be glued to the ground, and she couldn't move a single step.

If she can marry Zhang Shaotian, where does she need to fall to such a point? And it is a dignified original room, not an inferior house-filling step-room like now.

And she really didn't want to serve Zhang Shaohong.

What is there to serve an old man who has had a stroke?

Zhang Zhenqin sneered in her heart, and still called out softly on her face: "Mrs? Let's go, shall we? ”

Qi Shuyu had no choice, so she followed Zhang Zhenqin out of Mrs. Zhang's courtyard in despair.

The two of them walked on the verandah back to the main courtyard.

Zhang Zhenqin approached Qi Shuyu and said with a smile: "Madam, people are doing it, and the sky is watching." If you do something wrong, there is always retribution, you say, isn't this the reason? ”

Qi Shuyu pursed her lips and didn't talk to her.

When the two returned to the main courtyard, Qi Shuyu instructed the maid to go to the back room to serve Zhang Shaohong.

"Wait." Zhang Zhenqin stopped those maids and looked at Qi Shuyu: "My grandmother instructed that my wife should do the work of serving my father in the future." ”

"What?" Qi Shuyu couldn't hold back any longer, "There are a lot of maids and wives in the family, why do you want me to do it myself!?" ”

"Why? It's up to you to be your wife. Zhang Zhenqin's face was solemn, "Do you think that to be a wife, you only need to be rich and noble?" What about shared suffering? You don't want to? As she spoke, she turned her head to look at the maid in the house: "Listen to me, the old lady said that the wife should take care of the eldest master with her own hands, so that the eldest master will get better faster." You also know that on weekdays, the eldest man and his wife are inseparable for a while, and the two are tired of being together every day. Now that the eldest lord is sick, the wife will definitely not dislike the eldest master, and will be with the eldest master every day, wife, do you say? ”

Qi Shuyu was stunned for a long time before he reluctantly said, "Yes." ”

Everyone was talking in the hall, and a mother-in-law who was waiting for Zhang Shaohong in the back room suddenly ran out in a panic and said, "Oh no, the old man pulled the ...... again."

Patients with hemiplegia who have suffered from stroke and cannot take care of themselves are solved in bed.

Zhang Zhenqin looked at Qi Shuyu and smiled slightly, feeling a sense of revenge for her mother: "Okay, Mrs., you can go in now, wipe my father's body and change it, remember to change the dirty clothes, it's best for you to wash it yourself." If you don't want to, don't force it, but you will have to change it yourself. ”

Qi Shuyu gritted her silver teeth and glared at Zhang Zhenqin fiercely before turning around and entering the back room.

Needless to say, Zhang Shaohong's mess and dirtiness went without saying, Qi Shuyu simply pinched his nose and held his breath before Zhang Shaohong changed into clean clothes and bedding.

It's just that this time she was upside down, and her whole body was tired and paralyzed.

But Zhang Zhenqin didn't let her go, and instructed her to decoct Zhang Shaohong with her own hands, and tossed until the time when she was holding the lamp.

As soon as Zhang Zhenqin left, Qi Shuyu threw away all the work in his hands and let the maid do it.

But it didn't take long for Mrs. Zhang to assign a mother-in-law to come over, watch her specifically, and let her serve Zhang Shaohong with her own hands.

Just because Zhang Zhenqin claimed that if Qi Shuyu served with her own hands, her father would definitely get better faster.

In the entire Zhang family, the person who wants Zhang Shaohong to recover the most, except for Qi Shuyu, is Mrs. Zhang.

Qi Shuyu really couldn't stand it.

That night, she took a look at the gap and waited for Zhang Shaotian to go back to the inner courtyard every day.

Seeing Zhang Shaotian coming in from afar, she hurriedly greeted him.

"Shaotian!" She whispered.

When Zhang Shaotian saw that it was her, he frowned, turned around and left, hurriedly left the inner courtyard, and went out again.

Zhang Shaotian came out of Zhang's house, rode around the street, and involuntarily came to the door of Mrs. Zhongzhenguo's mansion in Dongchengfang District.

This is Shen Yongjie's home.

He proposed to Shen Yongjie on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, Shen Yongjie thought about it for a while, and rejected him this morning.

He didn't think that he would be able to make Shen Yongjie agree to the first marriage, so he was not surprised.

He just wanted to be close to her, as close to her as he could.

Maybe his mother was right, he was really obsessed.

There are so many women outside, but he only recognizes her in his life.

Zhang Shaotian lingered in front of Mrs. Zhongzhenguo for a while.

Xiao Lei came back from outside the city in a car, saw that it was Zhang Shaotian, and greeted him with a smile: "Is there something wrong with Vice Minister Zhang?" ”

Zhang Shaotian blushed a little, but fortunately night fell to cover up his embarrassment, "I'm passing by, passing by......"

Xiao Lei pursed his lips and smiled, and was about to speak, when he saw his father Yuan Jianren coming from the other direction in a car, and when he saw him, he said loudly: "Xiao Lei, don't drive this sneaky man away for me!" ”
