Chapter 103: Crowd Plotting (2)
Mrs. Zhang can be said to be earnestly hoping that Jinran's shadow would appear at the door of the main house earlier.
Maybe the prayer of Mrs. Zhang was effective, or maybe Jin Ran was too lazy to ink in her courtyard, all in all, the Jin Ran that Mrs. Zhang had been looking forward to day and night had finally arrived.
The skirt that Jin Ran is wearing today is also very particular, the turquoise fabric jacket is covered with a layer of pale white yarn, and a shawl is tied at the half-arm. Jin Ran only combed a simple bun on his head today, and only wore a small jewel-encrusted clip in his jet-black hair.
Her face was pale, and her lips were not bloody.
Rao is Zhang knew in advance that his daughter was acting, and he was also taken aback by her pale face. Zhang habitually put his face on the board: "Sheng Jinran, what happened to you yesterday, why are you so pale." If you're tired, go to bed early, why don't you go back today, you have a mother for everything. You can go back and rest first. ”
Everyone including the old lady of the Zhang family has not yet spoken, but the eldest lady of the Zhang family who was waiting on the side jumped out at this time, she was very dissatisfied when she was waiting for Jin Ran, and at this moment she saw that the Zhang family drove Jin Ran back and was afraid that the person who interceded would be driven back, so she was dissatisfied: "I see that Jin Ran is nothing, there are so many people in the family, and they have arrived in the morning." Not to mention that she came late and made a fuss, I look at her, nothing happens. ”
Jin Ran was almost laughed at by her aunt who was talking nonsense with her eyes open, she tilted her head at Mrs. Zhang, revealing a mouthful of white teeth: "Auntie, I don't dare to compare with you, you slept yesterday." I've been busy cleaning up the mess that other people have done yesterday. Pity my brother, I don't know how long I've been with him. Oh, you shouldn't know it, aunt, after all, you don't even have time to see my third brother once. Are you going back to sleep? ”
This Mrs. Zhang is messing around with the money she is an elder in front of her, and Jin Ran naturally will not swallow her anger. She was a very filial person, and she always remembered the teachings of her mother and grandmother.
But for her eldest aunt, who only knows how to show off her elders, and is there to be a prestige in front of her juniors, Jin Ran will not accompany her.
In general, although this Mrs. Zhang and Jin Ran are serious relatives, they have not seen each other once in ten years, nine years and three hundred and sixty-four days, so Jin Ran is not afraid of her at all, and immediately choked back.
Mrs. Zhang's face turned red with anger, but she couldn't refute it, after all, what Jin Ran said was the truth, even if she wanted to refute, she didn't know where to start.
The old lady of the Zhang family saw that her daughter-in-law couldn't wait to jump out and immediately swept a sharp eye knife, her daughter-in-law was famous when she asked to marry, but after marrying back, she found that those were all fake, and this Mrs. Zhang was very stupid.
But now regret is useless, the old lady of the Zhang family hurriedly squeezed out a reluctant smile: "Ran'er, your aunt was confused yesterday, she doesn't know what she said." While speaking, the old lady of the Zhang family stretched out her hand to pull Jinran to her side, she rubbed Jinran's face distressedly, and couldn't stop muttering: "My poor granddaughter, look at this little face, was she scared yesterday?" I also heard this morning that your cousin has done such a foolish thing, and she is so young that she inevitably gets carried away from time to time, and that the villain instigates it behind her back, and she commits such a thing. Grandmother is here to compensate you for her. ”
It's an excuse for being young again, Jin Ran was held in the arms of the old lady of the Zhang family and almost wanted to yawn, when Zhang Zi made a big mistake, the old lady of the Zhang family looked young and suppressed the matter, so what did Hu Xiana do to excuse her and others to blame her for saying that she was young, Jin Ran was a person who didn't know that she was going to marry someone who was young.
Before Jin Ran could speak, Zhang on the side had already sneered: "Mother, I don't agree with what you say." My family Ran'er is almost sixteen, this Zhang Qi is three years older than my family Ran'er, why doesn't my family Ran'er do such a thing? She's so much older than my family, and it's a bit biased to say that she's young and ignorant, right? ”
This is the first time that the Zhang family has spoken to the old lady of the Zhang family like this, and the mother is strong, and the original mother and daughter are incompatible at the moment.
The Zhang family didn't want to put Zhang Qi to death, she just wanted to let the old lady of the Zhang family be fair, and make Zhang Qi pay the price for what she did, but even such a simple request touched the old lady of the Zhang family and didn't agree.
The old lady of the Zhang family's eyelids drooped, and her face was unhappy: "Where has Zhang Qi been punished, let's just expose this matter." ”
Mrs. Zhang also followed beside her and said, "That's right, sister, Zhang Qi has already been punished in various ways." Let's just get to the end of it. ”
Jin Ran couldn't help it, she spoke: "Auntie, the punishment you said wouldn't be to copy the "Female Ring" twice, right?" ”
Mrs. Zhang's face froze, what Jin Ran said was really right, Mrs. Zhang Jiada punished Zhang Qi to copy "The Female Ring" a few times to calm down, after all, Zhang Qi is a show girl who is going to enter the palace and be selected, she can't have any scars on her body, Mrs. Zhang Jiada regretted it after beating her yesterday, she didn't feel sorry for her daughter's injury, but she was worried about whether those bruises would affect Zhang Qi's draft in the palace.
Zhang couldn't help crying: "Mother, I know that you feel sorry for Qi'er in your heart, you just think about what will happen to Qi'er if she is punished, why don't you think about my Jinyi?" I don't ask you to treat everyone equally, but as Jinyi's mother, I still have to get back the justice I should have for my son. ”
Old Madam Zhang's face was pale: "Luo'er, what are you talking about?" Didn't Qi'er make it? Jinyi is not a big deal, if you lack any medicinal materials, our Zhang family will give a copy. ”
Zhang couldn't help but be angry: "It's no big deal? That's my luck! If it weren't for Princess Ming'an's quick decision, my Jinyi wouldn't know what would have happened! If so, if Zhang Qi's plan succeeds, then what will happen to my son for the rest of his life? ”
The old lady of the Zhang family was a little unhappy when she heard Zhang's words, and she said lightly: "If it becomes your Sheng family, you are still not satisfied?" You are also the daughter of the Zhang family, what's the matter, now in your eyes, the Zhang family is not worthy of the Sheng family? ”
There are a lot of pitfalls in the words of the old lady of the Zhang family, if the Zhang family says that it is worthy, then it can give the old lady of the Zhang family an excuse to excuse herself, and she will definitely say something when the girl family suffers more than the man's family in this kind of thing. And now in the eyes of the world, they can't see that everything is Zhang Qi's mastermind, they can only see that this Sheng Jinyi almost has something with the eldest lady of the Zhang family, if the old lady of the Zhang family operates well, when the time comes, people will be terrible, and this Sheng Jinyi may be pressed to marry Zhang Qi.
But if the Zhang family said that the girl of the Zhang family was not worthy of the Sheng family, then the Zhang family was indispensable for being ungrateful and disregarding the reputation of the mother's family.
Zhang's eyes were cracking, she never thought that her mother would dig such a pit for herself to jump.
In Zhang's eyes, even if her mother protects her shortcomings, she will always give herself and Jinyi justice, but now looking at the posture of the old lady of the Zhang family, it seems that she still wants to push Zhang Qi to the Sheng family.
The Zhang family was so cold that they simply shut up and didn't answer the words of the old lady of the Zhang family, and let the Zhang family talk there.
Jin Ran couldn't see her mother so wronged, she stood up from the old lady of the Zhang family, walked to her mother's side, and chose her own position from her actions: "Grandmother, what you said is biased, my mother is the daughter of the Zhang family, how can she look down on the girl of the Zhang family?" ”
The old lady of the Zhang family thought that she couldn't be accepted for this trick, so she stood up for Jinran, she was happy and just wanted to speak, but Jinran pretended not to see her face and continued: "But grandmother, my third brother has already been in love with the girls of other families. With that girl, even if it is a fairy from the sky, it can't be compared. Our Sheng family's family style is strict, and when marrying a wife, this cousin Zhang Qi was really good before, but her behavior yesterday was ...... I really can't be the daughter of everyone. ”
Mrs. Zhang didn't want Zhang Qi to marry into the Sheng family, she only wanted her daughter to enter the palace and become a palace concubine. The words of the old lady of the Zhang family just now really scared her enough, and she was secretly relieved to see Jinran's rebuttal. However, the second half of Jin Ran's sentence made her a little dissatisfied, but she didn't dare to jump out to refute it, for fear that she would let Zhang Qi enter the Sheng family again if she said this.
The old lady of the Zhang family looked at her, and for the first time, she was so cold to her granddaughter: "Sheng Jinran, what do you mean by this?" Do you mean that my Zhang family's eldest daughter is not as good as the girl who came out of nowhere? ”
This old lady of the Zhang family didn't know that the person who was in love with Sheng Jinyi was Princess Ming'an, so she didn't hold back, after all, in her heart, the one who could casually hook up with someone else's son was definitely not the daughter of everyone, and she could have the dignity of the Zhang family?
Mrs. Zhang listened to her mother-in-law's words and wanted to hurry over to cover her mouth, but now that everyone was there, she didn't dare to go up and make a mistake, so she could only look at her frantically below.
The old lady of the Zhang family didn't pay attention to her daughter-in-law, so naturally she couldn't see anything, she thought that after all, she still needed Jinran in her family, and couldn't help but soften her tone: "Ran'er, aren't you the best with Zhang Qi?" Why don't you like her to be your sister-in-law? ”
Seeing that her mother-in-law still didn't give up, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but say anxiously at the next head: "Mother, Zhang Qi still has to enter the palace to be elected, is it too early to say these words?" ”
