Zhao Yu colluded with the people of Xiaochangfang in the past, and did not block the ancestors and grandchildren of the Zhang family in Xiaoerfang. He decided that Xiao Erfang would not have a comeback one day, and he also believed that Xiao Changfang was attached to King Ying, and sooner or later he would become famous. However, after Xiao Changfang lost his title, Zhao Yuyuan was in Fengxian, and he didn't know the situation in Beijing, in fact, he was not unshaken, and even once expressed the intention of improving relations with Zhang's ancestors and grandchildren.

He went to the capital once, and when he came back, he once again strengthened the villain's position, although there was a reason for Zhao Jue's family to be lured and bought, but it was also indispensable to the credit of the beautiful concubine Aunt Liu given by the Niu family.

Aunt Liu doesn't know what her real surname is, her name is Liu Ying, she is a girl in the family, and she waits by Niu's side, which is very important. Because she was a little beautiful, she was given to Zhao Yu by the Niu family, and relying on his favor, she did a lot of things to sow discord in front of him, and she couldn't get along with the ancestors and grandchildren of the Zhang family. Since she gave birth to her youngest son Zhao Po for Zhao Yu, and was promoted from Tongfang to concubine, she has become more and more arrogant, and often stepped on the son of the sect, Zhao Jing, father and son, and wanted to fight for her son. But because she has a son, she has selfishness, so she is not as loyal to the old master as she used to be, and she always thinks about her son first before it is the turn of the old master. However, she only restrained herself a little, and she always had malicious intentions towards the ancestors and grandchildren of the Zhang family.

Zhao Yu actually knew the idea of this concubine in his heart, and he also knew that the ancestors and grandchildren of the Zhang family had never been waiting to see him and her. Now that Zhao Wei is the lord, the three grandchildren of the second house have returned to their hometown, he has never shown up from beginning to end, and he is bent on hiding in his own house to "recuperate", obviously hiding from shame. The Zhang family and Zhao Xiu should only look at Zhao Jing's husband and wife, and also give the former patriarch of the clan a face. As long as he doesn't come out to get in the way, it's hard for them to embarrass him.

But what's wrong with him now? Stupid? People were impatient to see him, and he asked to see him. If it is to apologize for what he has done in the past, so as to win the forgiveness of the Zhang family and Zhao Xiu, and re-establish his authority in the clan, then what are you doing with your youngest son? Although the child is innocent, his biological mother is a person who is disgusted by the second grandfather. Zhao Yu brought this child to Zhang and Zhao Xiu, did he want to improve the relationship between the two sides, or was he angry?

Zhao Xiu couldn't believe that Zhao Yu would be so stupid. She asked Zhao Jing directly: "Uncle Yu, what's wrong?" Is he confused? ”

Zhao Jing and Shen's faces were full of embarrassment, and they also felt that the old father was confused, but his old man insisted on doing this, and they had no choice but to come and stand for him.

Zhang secretly gave his granddaughter a look and asked her not to speak so straightly, so that Zhao Jing and his wife couldn't get off the stage: "I see that your Uncle Yu probably thinks that we have never met Pogoer, so he specially brought the child to visit me." ”

Zhao Xiu snorted coldly and said with a smirk: "Among the children of the whole clan, not everyone can see my grandmother when they are young. It's just a concubine, any girl and concubine come to my grandmother to say goodbye, can my grandmother see it? Besides, Zhao Po is still young, so it's better not to go out in winter, what if the wind blows and catches a cold? It's better to let him stay at home and ask his biological mother to take care of him. Children are the most delicate and can easily get sick. It's better for adults to toss him less. As for Uncle Yu, they are all acquaintances, and they have seen a lot in the past, but now it doesn't matter if they don't see each other, besides, it's better for the uncle and brother-in-law to avoid suspicion. He is also an old man, and he goes out to step on the snow, what if he falls? Brother Jing, persuade him more for me, don't toss when you're old. ”

Zhang secretly glared at his granddaughter, Zhao Jing showed an embarrassed smile and secretly wiped his sweat: "My sister is right, I really think about my father." I'll persuade him when I get back. Of course, he would never repeat Zhao Xiu's words to his father as they were.

Zhang felt a little wronged by Zhao Jing and his wife, so he said to him: "I know that you are difficult to do, your father is not a reasonable person, if he blames you for not doing good things, you just push it on me, saying that I am tired from the journey, I want to have a good rest, and I don't want to see guests." ”

Zhao Jing laughed dryly. This statement is not as good as Zhao Xiu's insinuations, now that the second tenant is like a cloud, who would believe that the Zhang family is tired and doesn't want to see guests? However, even if Zhao Yu heard that Zhang was making an excuse to refuse to see him, he couldn't be angry with her. In today's situation, who is strong and who is weak? Unless Zhao Yu really let it go, he would never offend the nobles in the family.

What's more, this idea was not originally thought of by Zhao Yu, but it was just instigated by Aunt Liu. She is just a cheap concubine, now that the old master is gone, the backer has fallen, Zhao Yu is old again, she is still at odds with her eldest son, and the only one she can rely on is a two-year-old son. For herself and her son, she had to coax the ancestors of the Zhang family to lose their anger. Otherwise, if they hate what she did back then, they don't need to do it themselves, they only need a look, and some people will pinch her mother and son to death. If you want to live, you can't take care of many things.

Zhao Xiu didn't have the heart to pay attention to what the concubines of the sect had in mind, and when Zhao Jing and his wife finished talking about the clan affairs, it was also very late, and they just served tea to the guests. She sent Zhang back first, and then went back to her room to wash and change clothes. By the time she climbed into bed, she was so tired that she couldn't speak, and within ten seconds, she was dead asleep.

When I woke up the next day, there was another wave of guests. Most of the people who came on this day were clansmen. In the past, the children of each family went to the dock to greet them, and the wives and grandmothers came to have fun, but today they are the juniors of each family. Sister Zhao Yuan and Zhao Qing of the sect took the lead, and the cousins, nephews and nieces who slipped behind all came to say hello to the Zhang family. The Zhang family was happy when he saw the juniors, and when he saw that they were all sweet and well-behaved, he was even happier, and scattered many gifts and rewards. Zhao Xiu also handed over the gifts entrusted by the people of Jingzhong to the recipients, and they were all happy.

The clansmen have all come, and the Zhang family and Zhao Xiu are not allowed to be idle, because relatives, friends, and neighbors have come to the door again. When they had passed the circle, the people of the clan who had stammered came to say goodbye in twos and threes. The second room of the Zhao family has guests every day, and there is no idle time for several days. These guests don't say anything serious, they talk about some parents all day long, talk about an interesting story about relatives and friends, say it today, say it tomorrow in the west, and listen to it over and over again so that people's ears are calloused. Not to mention that Zhao Xiu was bored, even the Zhang family was a little unbearable.

Zhang always remembers to observe the etiquette of hospitality, and cannot put on a stand with people whose status is inferior to her because of her own dignity, so as long as someone comes to ask for a meeting, she will not refuse. But she is also an old person, and her health is not very good, and it is still the coldest time of the year. Every time a guest came, she had to change her clothes, comb her hair again, and come out to meet people. When the guests left, she went back to her room and just changed her clothes to rest, when someone came again. Tossing and turning a few times a day, people who are beaten with iron can't stand it, let alone her? Zhao Xiu saw that her spirit was deteriorating, so he persuaded her not to see any more guests, and when someone came, he ordered Wang Shuangfu to send people away. Zhang refused to listen, saying that he couldn't be rude, and insisted on getting up and changing his clothes, and Zhao Xiu exploded: "What is rude?" They just want to please their grandmother and benefit their own family! If you don't think about yourself, think about your brother and me! Are they more important than my brother and me? Can you tell your grandmother to ignore her body for their sake?! In this case, I simply told them directly, they have been annoying people all day long, and even if they please you, they will offend me. I'll ask my brother to put on small shoes for them to see if they will be so blind! ”

Zhang was taken aback and hurriedly said, "What are you doing here?" Those are all relatives and friends of their own family, and they are not outsiders. ”

"Just because I'm not an outsider, there's no need to be so polite!" Zhao Xiu was actually angry with Zhang, "Could it be that you told them that you were too tired to see people, and they annoyed you?" Or will they speak ill of you out there? If you don't know compassion at all, it's better not to have such relatives and friends. Alright, you can rest for a good life, I'll send the people away. Then he turned around and was about to leave.

Zhang hurriedly stopped her: "Don't be like this, I'm actually not very tired......" Zhao Xiu turned his head and ignored her. She was silent for a moment, as if she knew that she was at a loss, and said a little embarrassedly, "I'm happy." Although we were close to our people in the past, we had never seen people treat us so warmly. If the county lord saw our clan getting along so well in the spirit of heaven, he would be very happy to come. After a few days to worship my ancestors, I will go to his grave to offer incense, listen to the people talk more about their own affairs, and tell him when the time comes. ”

Zhao Xiu was so angry that she turned around and left, refusing to turn back no matter what she called.

When she came to the guests who came to see her, she didn't give people a look, but only lightly said that her grandmother was tired and unwell, so she couldn't see the guests. How can the relatives and friends of the clan blame? Naturally, they politely said that their health was important, and asked the county duchess to recuperate, and then left obediently.

Zhao Xiu then communicated with Zhao Jing's wife, Shen, and gave the clansmen a breath, saying that she was very unhappy with Miss Zhao. Because a bunch of people come to the door every day, they don't do anything serious, but they take up other people's time, so she doesn't even do a few serious things. Shen was a wise woman, and when she conveyed her wishes, she was tactful and tactful, and the clansmen quickly understood what she meant, and they no longer came to the door every day to annoy her. They are here to please people, but they are not here to please people, they really tired the county duchess Zhang, no matter how many gifts they give and how many good things they say, they can't get the favor of Jiannanhou, so aren't they stealing chickens and rice?

The clansmen have solved it, but the relatives and friends with foreign surnames and the daughters of the gentry of the same country have some trouble. However, if Zhang is sick, no one will come to the door to bother him without eyes. The number of guests who came to the door gradually decreased, but some banquet posts were handed to the second room of the Zhao family. Zhao Xiu flipped through it, recalled the background of several families in the east, and then inquired about who attended the banquet, and he knew it in his heart.

When Zhang saw her writing a post, she refused almost all the banquets, leaving only one, and replied that she would go to the banquet before she was a little puzzled: "Sister Xiu, why did you only agree to go to this house?" The family doesn't seem to know us very well. ”

It's really not very familiar, this is the in-laws of the third room, and the second room can only be said to be a relative who is turning a corner, but his family has the same benefit.

"His daughter is either married or married, and his son is only three years old, which is very safe." Zhao Xiu replied, but Zhang didn't understand: "What does this mean?" ”

Zhao Xiu sighed: "When the housewives of the previous families who were invited to the east came to visit, you didn't pay attention to what they said, right?" They are doing everything possible to inquire about my brother and me, and they have denied the family matter. I don't want to plan for my own children, or I want to be a matchmaker. But this one is more honest, and he hasn't mentioned anything like that. This banquet is also because of the birthday of the old lady of his family. Five years ago, my grandmother and I also went to his old lady's birthday banquet, and you can talk to his old lady. Go again, and you won't be bored thinking about grandmother. ”

Zhang was stunned for a moment before he understood what his granddaughter meant: "What? Are you saying they're eyeing your brother's marriage to you? How embarrassed are they?! "The one with the highest status here is just the sixth-rank official of Zhishi! Her grandson is the Hou Ye!

"Why are you embarrassed?" Zhao Xiu said disapprerovingly, "In the past, when my brother was not a knight, you didn't inquire about these local gentry girls. At that time, others knew that you were going to show your brother about your family, but before I could decide, my brother and I went to the capital. Now they probably don't want to miss it, right? She paused, "Actually, it doesn't matter if they are planning something, my brother has also reached the age of marriage." Grandmother, it's time for you to think about it. What kind of daughter-in-law are you going to marry your brother? ”R1152
