Chapter 516: Complicated Feelings
There are many versions of the rumors, but in reality the content is more or less the same.
Usually at the beginning, a person looks mysterious, and comes to another person who has a good relationship with him, and whispers: "Have you heard about Chen Wenchuan, who just took over as the left waiter of the Criminal Department, recently?"
Generally, after this situation occurs, the person in the know will show a disgusting smile, and then say to the person: "Of course I know, Zhang Fan's kid is too beautiful,"
Of course, the uninformed person will also show a disgusting smile, lean over and ask in a more mysterious look, "What is the matter, tell me about it,"
Then, the person asking the question will say something eloquently and exaggeratedly.
In short, this situation can be seen everywhere in the court now, and even the Empress Dowager Li knows about it, but the Empress Dowager Li just laughs at it, and she doesn't bother to ask about these things, after all, this is a family affair of the courtiers.
To be honest, this matter has no impact on Zhang Fan, at most, when he was in the early court, he was just expected to congratulate him, and for Chen Wenchuan, the newly promoted Zuo Shilang of the Criminal Department, the impact is indeed not small.
After all, many people don't know what happened when Empress Dowager Li saw Chen Wenchuan and asked him to take over as the left attendant of the Criminal Department, after knowing that Chen Wenchuan was Zhang Fan's father-in-law, there was actually no big reaction, after all, things like this in the DPRK and China, it is not an uncommon thing to bring up people who have something to do with them, almost everyone has done this kind of thing, and now there are not many Zhang Fan, and there are many Zhang Fan.
In addition, since Chen Wenchuan took office for a month, he has also been extremely attentive, he is familiar with government affairs very quickly, and he is also very serious in doing things, especially solving two cases, although it is not big, but it also allows colleagues to put away a mediocre talent who is just a mediocre person who relies on his relationship to get to the top.
It's just that a month later, that is, now, when the Zhang family began to prepare for the marriage and distribute wedding cards, this rumor arose again.
But speaking of which, although these people who talk about others are really a little too boring, but this matter really has the capital to talk about, after all, Zhang Fan wants to marry this woman named Chen Zhaoxue, who is Zhang Fan's wife Chen Ruxue's own sister, Chen Wenchuan's biological daughter, the second.
And this incident happened a month after Chen Wenchuan was transferred to the left waiter of the Criminal Department, which has to make people discuss, to put it nicely, Chen Wenchuan kept doing such things in order to be promoted; And to put it mildly, Chen Wenchuan sold his daughter to seek glory, although the essence of these two statements is the same.
And the ministers in the court obviously didn't dare to show any playful expressions in front of Zhang Fan, and most of them were congratulatory and festive, but in front of Chen Wenchuan, they were not so polite, and the bolder ones generally met Chen Wenchuan, but they simply turned a blind eye, even if they were talking about other things with people just now, they immediately turned to this matter, and they also talked and laughed, and their voices were very loud; And those who give Chen Wenchuan face will not say this, but they will hide their faces and smile, or make a strange expression, which even Chen Wenchuan's own subordinates cannot be exempted from when they see him.
However, obviously, Chen Wenchuan himself has excellent self-cultivation, and after he agreed to this matter, he knew in his heart that this kind of thing would inevitably happen, so Chen Wenchuan, who had been prepared, ignored all these ways of ridiculing him, some of them just laughed away, and some of them he didn't care at all, and he didn't even pay attention to them.
Obviously, this time, Chen Wenchuan is determined to New Year, for the sake of his daughter, he can be regarded as open this time, and he doesn't care about anything at all, including these attacks on himself.
For this matter, Zhang Fan also has a headache, he can't help, Liang Chao saw Zhang Fan worried about this matter, he even came up with an idea, wanting to solve problems for Zhang Fan, of course, Liang Chao also came up with a bad idea, he suggested that people, that is, Jin Yiwei, warn those people, but obviously, as long as they are a little bit of brains, after listening to it, they all know that this is not possible, if you do this, it will only make the rumors that are already very annoying become more intense. In the end, there is no control at all, and it is even impossible to say what will happen.
Zhang Fan understands that the best way at this time is not to say anything, let them say it, he still remembers that there was a saying in his previous life, "Time is the best medicine to eliminate rumors", with the passage of time, rumors will eventually die one day, and there will always be a day when people will feel that there is really nothing new in this matter and give up talking about it.
Therefore, this is not a trouble at all, and Zhang Fan's recent mood is also quite good, after all, people are in good spirits when they are happy, that's for sure.
And the Zhang family, Zhao Xue, this girl is also happy in her heart, after all, her wish is about to be fulfilled, but when the day is approaching, she panics.
Just like now, Zhao Xue is sorting things out, during this time, her temperament has also changed a lot, although her original cheerful and lively nature has not changed, but her whole person has become a lot more well-behaved.
It's just that during this time, Zhao Xue will always lose her mind, and she doesn't know what she is thinking in her heart when she looks up, no, this is the case now.
It's not the first time this has happened, but every time this happens, it makes people who see it feel funny, just like now, when Zhao Xue showed this appearance, her sister Ru Xue on the side looked at her with a smile on her face, and even laughed unconsciously.
This smile woke up Zhao Xue, who was thinking about her heart, when she saw that it was her sister who was laughing at herself, and there were many strange things in the smile on her face, immediately, Zhao Xue was flushed, and she lowered her face and didn't dare to look at Ru Xue at all.
"What's the matter," Seeing her sister like this, Ru Xue felt even more interesting in her heart, "In the past, we were not afraid of the sky and the earth, but now what's wrong, she has become so shy,"
"Sister, don't I follow, you laugh at me again," Sure enough, hearing Ru Xue's words, Zhao Xue couldn't hold back any longer, and said to Ru Xue with some anger, after all, during this time, there are not a few people who laugh at her, and Ru Xue is so light, if it is Yingyue, she will definitely laugh in front of Zhao Xue, after all, these two people have a little holiday, it is not a day or two.
"Yo, I'm still angry with my sister," Ru Xue is the same in her heart now, the more she sees Zhao Xue like this, the more she wants to tease her.
"Sister is bad, don't say it," after saying this, Zhao Xue turned her face to the side and stopped looking at Ru Xue.
However, from the side, Ru Xue could still find that her sister's face became even more red, her mouth was pouting, and she looked like she had been greatly wronged, but she couldn't vent.
Seeing Zhao Xue like this, Ru Xue also put away the ridicule in her heart, and said: "Zhao Xue, do you know ......" The words were general, but she didn't say anything, as if there was something bad to say.
Hearing his sister's change of tone, Zhao Xue couldn't help but turn her head, although her face was still flushed, but her expression also changed to a curious look, obviously, he understood what his sister had to say to himself, and it was definitely not a joke.
"Dad will agree to this matter, to be honest, I'm not surprised in my heart," Ru Xue said, "Although I can't say why you want me to tell me, but that's what I think in my heart,"
"Sister...... "Sister" felt that Ru Xue's words had changed a little, and Zhao Xue couldn't help but ask worriedly about another thing that she remembered after letting go of her mind since Chen Wenchuan agreed to this matter, "Sister...... Isn't there something ...... in your heart? A little unhappy," Zhao Xue was a little apprehensive in her heart and even in her words when she asked this sentence.
Hearing Zhao Xue ask this, Ru Xue's face showed a wry smile, and it took a long time to speak: "To say that I am not a little unhappy in my heart, then I am lying, no, it should be said that I am very uncomfortable in my heart,"
"Sister......" Zhaoxue didn't know what to say, at this time, with her position at the moment, it was not suitable to comfort Ru Xue.
However, Ru Xue didn't seem to hear what Zhao Xue said at this time, and continued, "It's not just you, to be honest, which woman wants to see her husband bring other women home after she gets married, not to mention that now, I also have two children, and my heart is even more so."
"But I understand Xianggong's thoughts, besides, I don't know about Yingyue and Sister Ling'er, if Xianggong is ignoring them and indifferent, it will make me feel even more uncomfortable.
"But I've always been a woman, and in this matter, even if it's my sister and my own sister, I can't let go,"
"Sister......" Listening to Ru Xue's words, Zhao Xue slowly lowered her head, at this moment, Zhao Xue didn't know what to say at all, and Ru Xue's words just now made him feel as if he had done something extremely sorry for his sister.
"Don't be stupid, it's no wonder you for this matter," Ru Xue comforted when she saw Zhaoxue like this, "What's more, you are my own sister, if you are not happy, how can I feel good in my heart?"
"Sister," hearing Ru Xue say this, Zhao Xue threw herself into her arms and hugged her tightly.
Although she understood Zhao Xue's mood, Ru Xue was also hugging her and responding to her at the moment, but her complicated expression on the face behind Zhao Xue had never changed.
