Chapter 45 There are many incidents
Zhang Yue looked at several opportunities to talk alone with his father, but every time the words came to his lips, he magically diverted the topic elsewhere. Although it was Du Zhen's reminder, after all, people didn't explicitly say that the Zhang family was in a hurry, but it was just a reminder. If he said it rashly, if his father believed it and made a mess up and down to Gu Shi, he would not only lose face, but also make others think that Du Zhen was an alarmist maniac.
So, he kept the matter to heart. Because of the return of the two uncles this time, and the imminent delivery of his mother Sun, he had to go to the school to ask for leave. Looking at the face of the Zhang family and his first-class results in the previous annual examination, Liu Xundao in the school asked Professor Guo for advice, and finally allowed him to attend classes the next day, but he must not delay the monthly examination.
In this way, other students are extremely envious, but they are all a few years older than Zhang Yue, a few years old, dozens of years old, but before they forcibly let a teenager occupy a first-class place, where can they get by on this face? As a result, a wave of diligent learning and inquisitiveness was suddenly set off in the school school, which made one professor and four instructors very happy.
However, Zhang Yue, who didn't have to go to class, was even more idle. This time it was no one else who was pestering him, but the eldest brother Zhang Chao. At first, someone who was unwilling and reluctant to marry was sighing at this time, but it was unbelievable, because Zhang Chao actually said that his mother regretted the family affair that had been decided.
"The first mother is full of heart around the people, and now seeing that her father may be going to the governor's mansion again, she dislikes the Jin family as a nouveau riche, and the daughters of the people are not generous and indecent, and the first does not know who praised them to the sky. Third brother, where do you say there is such a truth in the world? If you don't look down on others, why bother to let people mention their relatives to Geng Tie in the first place, isn't this ruining people's reputation? ”
Although Zhang Yue didn't hear any rumors about this matter, Zhang Chao was so indignant at this time, most of it was not nonsense, so he gradually believed it. Although the original incident had long passed, he always had a little bit of a problem with his second aunt Dongfang, and when he learned that she was going to do this kind of immoral thing again, he was suddenly angry.
"Does the second uncle know about this marriage?"
"Dad has been very busy visiting relatives and friends these days, even my grandmother will forget about it for a while, and my mother hasn't mentioned it at all...... Ah, you're right, I should go and tell my father, as long as my father knows, will I still let my mother come here? ”
Seeing that Zhang Chao, who was overjoyed, ran away, Zhang Yue shook his head, and suddenly thought that it was this guy who came to beg him with his eyes, saying that he wanted to marry the sister of the twins. He was full of eccentricity and told his parents when he went back, but it caused a lot of emotion.
"Although Brother Chao is reckless and rude, this heart is sincere. If you are divorced, how can a good girl be? Second sister-in-law, this is too much! ”
"Maybe he's just listening?" Zhang Zhuo muttered, but when he thought of Dongfang's character, he finally believed eighty percent, and immediately sighed, "The second sister-in-law has too much thought and too much life, how can this marriage be Longwangshu?" Even if the second brother wants to be promoted, it is still a matter that has not yet been decided, she thinks that the Kaifeng Jin Prefect is a soft persimmon? ”
Sun, who had a big belly, saw Zhang Yue sitting silently on the side, and simply tapped and said, "Yue'er, you have already given Brother Chao a move, don't worry about the rest of the matter." It doesn't matter if your second aunt talks about the marriage alone, she wants to tear her face, but the old lady still doesn't follow it, and your eldest aunt will not watch her break her promise. ”
Dongfang has always been active, and now it is indeed she who looks at the marriage that she spared no effort to promote. This prefect is not even a feudal official, if the husband is promoted to the capital, the new daughter-in-law will follow her family to the past, it will be even more inconspicuous. Besides, if you marry the daughter of Feng's sister, you won't be able to raise your head in the Zhang family in the future?
So, seeing that the Zhang family was gradually a little sluggish, Feng Lan couldn't help but be anxious, and visited the door three or four times, and the dominoes were wiped again and again, but she didn't wait for a quasi-letter. Just when she was so anxious that her heart was on fire, and a blister appeared on the side of her mouth, Zhang You, the second elder of the Zhang family, came to visit the Jin family and recognized this family affair in person.
This unexpected visit made Feng Lan happy and angry.
Dongfang was hiding from her husband wholeheartedly, thinking that as long as she followed her husband to the capital, she would have her own way to find an excuse to withdraw from her relatives in the future, but who knew that her husband would run to Jin's house quietly. She called almost all the girls and daughters-in-law for interrogation, but finally found out that her son had leaked the news, and she was angry for a while. But at this point, she had no choice but to call Zhang Chao to reprimand her.
Although this is the business of the second room, there is a way that there are many rights and wrongs in the mansion, even if the family of three in the third room who knows the inside story is not too talkative, but the matter still spreads. After the old lady Gu learned about it, she immediately called Dongfang to teach her a lesson, but afterwards she sighed to Lingxi, saying that Dongfang was shrewd and far-sighted, and if it weren't for the second son Zhang You's trustworthiness, the matter would not know how to end.
Lingxi is a tight-lipped person, and no one knows if he swallows these words. However, the dumb Dongfang clan, who couldn't tell the bitterness of eating Coptis chinensis, no longer had the heart to take power because of this matter, and he didn't care about it at home for a few days. In the past, the Feng family, who liked to fight for power with the Dongfang clan the most, was thinking about getting her husband's heart back from the two concubines, and thought that she would follow back to the capital in a few days, where would she have any thoughts about housekeeping. And the shy Sun family, not to mention, is powerless, even if he has the heart.
In the end, the Gu family had to send Lingxi to take care of it for a few days, and the whole family finally stopped. However, if you want to handle Zhang Chao's marriage before Zhang Xin and Zhang You go to Beijing, these days are not enough.
Dongfang was originally a little interested in marriage, but when she thought that her husband could not be present on the day of her son's wedding, she was even more dissatisfied, and finally had to salivate and beg Feng. Feng thought that he was marrying his niece, so he half-pushed and half-helped. The two concubines wrote a letter to the capital with their mother-in-law Gu, asking the British public Zhang Fu to try to find a holiday grace.
"The woman's family is not sensible, and the British duke has just returned to the dynasty after the four expeditions, so he actually bothered about this trivial idea. I was originally short-sighted, and my sister-in-law didn't persuade her! After Zhang You learned about the incident, the first thing he said when he ran to Sanfang to pour bitter water was this.
"How could my mother listen to the two of them so provocatively? If the emperor knows, he will definitely think that my second brother and I are indistinguishable from public and private in favor of the Zhang family! It's just that your sister-in-law's ears are soft, how can the second brother and sister be so confused! This is another emotion of Zhang Xin when he came to the Sanfang West Courtyard during a certain "wandering".
His father, Zhang Zhuo, was often absent, and Zhang Yue, who would stay at home the next day, had to face the repeated visits of his two uncles, and was often pulled to the main room to deal with all kinds of guests. As a result, his smiling face became more and more impeccable, but the anger in his heart became bigger and bigger-he knew that this was the case, he might as well face those old pedants in Fuxue every day!
Just when the Zhang family was waiting for the Beijing palindrome and was anxious to prepare for the wedding, a group of uninvited guests visited the Zhang family's mansion.
