Chapter 21: Implications

From where Wang lived to Zang Jintian's study, and then to where she walked now, Zhang Qining thought that she had never seen such a broken and incomplete style.

The colors in Wang's room are mainly brown and red, dark colors, whether it is the shelves or anywhere, they are all arranged, and vases, blankets, teapots and other things with intricate patterns fill the gaps in the entire room. It was like a peaceful place piled up with countless precious treasures, and even the sunlight could only shrank into a trace of shine. It's just the same as her heart filled with wealth and power, trying to suffocate people to death.

Zang Kam Tim's study is simple and heavy, quite like a family owner. Half of the shelves are decorated with books and half blue and white porcelain vases, and behind the screen of ink paintings is his real study, with pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, as well as account books and abacus. In front of the screen is where he receives foreign guests, and tea is always on the table.

The Zang family is in the pawn business, so both he and the Wang family have a few rare objects on the market in their rooms, and there are a few heirlooms - of course, not the heirlooms of the Zang family, for the Zang family, it has not yet reached the point of taking these as heirlooms, it is a little cold, someone took them as pawns. It is more than enough as a decoration or as a trophy in the sense of showing off.

The rich take pleasure in seeing that people have no money, and the higher ones take pleasure in seeing that people have no rights—boring and endless low-level pleasures.

And although the small garden where she is now is in a decent pattern, the flowers and trees planted in it are not even ordinary varieties. Just like the magnolia flower near the door of the round hole, the body of the tree is a little curved, and it is unintentionally biased in the direction of the round doorway, and you can imagine the beautiful scenery of the flower shadow half hidden and half exposed when it blooms.

This tree does not look good, it can only be said that it is unintentionally planted with willows and willows. Many of the flowers and trees here are like this, completely random and unorganized. But the original owner is very spiritual, even if he does it casually, he can show the true interest of the landscape, without pretentiousness, but there is a bit of "clever to do by people, just like the opening of the sky" artistic conception.

As far as the Zang family is concerned, the relationship between the family members is completely independent and almost goes their own way. Whose place is this? It's not like the handiwork of the Zang family...

"Miss Zhang." "Pretty sister!"

The two voices sounded behind him, and Zhang Qining turned to look over, it was Li and Zang Yingying. "Mrs. Zang."

"Why is Miss Zhang here, the son with you?" Li is a gentle and demure person, with a shallow smile on his face when he talks to him, and his eyes are even more gentle when he looks at Zang Yingying.

"Zhan Sui Yu They are talking in the study, and I am idle and bored to come out and walk casually. By the way, does Madame know who arranged it here? It feels simple and relaxed, and it's very comfortable. ”

"Yes, I also like the whole Zang Mansion the most, so I brought Yingying over to play." Li thought for a while and said, "This is the wife of the first family head who personally arranged it with flowers and grass. ”

"Mrs. Ancestor?"

Zang Jintian's deceased wife?

Li: "Yes, the wife of the first family - Zang Hu." ”

It is to see the painting and think about the people, and it is to keep the garden she arranged so intact. It's a surprise.

Zhang Qining: "The head of the Zang family loves Mrs. Xian so much, I don't know what kind of woman she is?" ”

"It's not enough to describe her as gentle as water." Lee's Road. "When I lived here with my father-in-law, she had passed away, and I often heard people talk about her, being gentle and kind." She sighed lightly, "Maybe she's a little too gentle, obviously married into the Zang family..."

I saw that her eyes darkened, as if she was regretting something.

"How did she die?"

Li Shi was slightly stunned, this Miss Zhang is really unusually keen. "It should be... Died. ”

Should? Heh, Zhang Qining smiled silently, what a subtle word. This topic ends here, she doesn't have to continue to ask, even if she asks, Li will not say.

"The current wife of the head of the house is a continuation?"

Li shook his head, "The head of the family and the first lady are very affectionate, but unfortunately they have no children. The old lady was the master of the concubine, and after the death of the one, the head of the family had no intention of remarrying. remembered that she had a hard time giving birth, so he raised her to be his wife. ”

Zhang Qining understood, it turned out that the old lady "fell in love at a glance".

"Mother, mother."

Zang Yingying didn't know where to go to play for a while, and her face was a little dirty. Li squatted down and wiped her with a handkerchief, "Where did you go, little flower cat?" ”

Zang Yingying "giggled" under her and laughed. As soon as she raised her hand, a few bruises appeared on her slender wrists, the scars were light purple and showed signs of swelling—injuries sustained not long ago, no more than three or five days at most. She quickly pulled up her sleeves and looked sideways at Zhang Qining, seeing that she was attracted by the magnolia flowers on the side.

"Third Miss." Zhan Suiyu came out after asking, found her and shouted, and then walked over.

Li Shi turned his back to him, and said to Zhang Qining: "Yingying is sweating, I'll take her back first." ”

"Thank you, ma'am, for today."

Li didn't say anything, nodded at her with a smile, and took her daughter to take a step first.

"Why, the people of the Zang family like to come to talk to you." Zhan Sui Yu put his hands behind him and said. "What did you talk about again?"

"This garden is not far from Zang Jintian's study, but it is not close, where can Li and his daughter go to play, but they come here to relax? People are very tactful beings, and all words and deeds can be followed. For example, after being busy for so long, I am not only hungry, but also planning to have some fun, so Mr. Zhan invited me to try Suzhou snacks, right? ”

Zhang Qining tiptoed in front of him, his misty black eyes were covered with a thin layer of light golden warm sun, and his well-behaved eyebrows and eyes were full of ill-intentioned agility, looking at him with a smile.

A trace of surprise flashed on Zhan Suiyu's face, and his good-looking peach blossom eyes were slightly stunned. The corners of Zhang Qining's lips rose, and she was just about to stand up with some pride, but Zhan Suiyu raised her hand and flicked it on her head before anyone could react. "Speak well."

He leaned down and looked at her at eye level: "What do you want to eat?" The low laughter fell on her ears like a spring breeze, her heart slowed and pounded, and her brain was empty.

“?”

"But before you eat, make it clear about business."

Zhang Qining lowered his gaze. You said you, what are you doing to tease him? It's almost full.

She coughed lightly twice, and wanted to cover up and said, "I talked to the Li family about Zang Jintian's deceased wife, Zang Hu, and her death may be related to the Wang family. Li doesn't want to stay in Zang Mansion for a long time, she is a smart person, and she won't come to me to say something that I don't have. You might as well ask someone to look up the old things. ”

"Zang Hu's..."

"In addition, Li has an injury on his arm, which should have been sustained in the last three to five days. Her daughter saw it but was not surprised, thinking she was used to it. ”

Zhan Suiyu: "You mean that the Li family was subjected to domestic violence?" No, Zang Chengji's rarity towards his wife and daughter doesn't seem to be pretending. ”

"Zang Chengji is simple-minded, impatient, and he can't do one thing on the surface. I didn't say that his nervous appearance was fake, but I just felt that there was something inside and told you what I saw. ”

"Play a girl's brain. Consultant Zhan, do you still want to face it? ”

"Yes, it's just that the third lady is indulging me. You see, even now you're not angry at all, are you? ”

"Who said I wasn't angry." Zhang Qining raised his hand and returned the brain: "Third Miss, Third Miss... I've been calling it that since yesterday, is Miss Zhang San better than Zhang Qining? ”

This girl really holds a grudge. "So the way you've been talking these days is gambling with me?"

Not quite. Since the identity is exposed, the Zhang family will soon find it, and nine times out of ten it is her second brother, and the attitude of the Zhang family must always let him adapt first. Wait, why did she let Zhan Suiyu adapt first? Zhang Qining lowered his head and didn't speak, thinking about all kinds of things in his heart.

Zhan Suiyu sighed, let go of her hand and touched her head, and gently lifted it.

"Isn't Qi Ning hungry? I want to eat something on the way. He reached out and rubbed the corner of her eye, the soft lashes flapping against the back of his fingers.

"Worry-free cake, small wine stuffing, vinegar fish..."Zhang Qining reported a string of dish names, suspected of premeditated.

As he listened, he led the people out. "Have you finished eating?"

Zhang Qining raised his eyes and glanced over. Staring –

Zhan Sui Yu: "... If you can't finish eating, I'll pack it for you. ”
