Chapter 144: Chinese New Year's Eve Dinner
, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the pet farmer little girl! Hearing a voice in the inner room, Banxia shouted, An Xiu'er answered, only to know that the Wu family's people had come over to invite a few times, she was surprised that she had overslept, and hurriedly pushed Zhang Zhen'an beside her.
Zhang Zhenan opened his eyes, and An Xiuer said to him: "We slept too late, and my mother sent someone to urge us." β
"Oh." Zhang Zhenan calmly put on his robe and teased himself, he knew that when he waited until the beginning of the new year, he was afraid that there would not be such a peaceful life.
When the two came to Wu's courtyard, everyone had already arrived, Zhang Zhenping and Ye Jingshu were both there, and the meal of the Chinese New Year's Eve was a small family banquet, and there were not many people.
Wu Shi frowned slightly when he saw the two of them coming so late, but he didn't say anything, only said two words, and then let the two sit down and let the maids serve the food.
With the first time she made a fool of her, An Xiuer was clear about the process of the Zhang family's meal this time, she was orderly about drinking tea, rinsing her mouth, and all the rules and etiquette, and she did not do it badly.
Because it was a family banquet, Wu didn't want to say anything, just glanced at a few people seated, and said, "Next year is the new year, after eating this meal, let's forget all the unhappiness of the old year." β
As she spoke, she stretched out her chopsticks, intending to pick up the first chopstick dish.
At this time, Zhang Zhenan suddenly said: "Mother, since you don't want to leave all the unhappiness until next year, then my son still has to make some things clear to you." β
"What do you want to tell me?" Knowing that Zhang Zhen'an was here to ask about the guilt, Wu sank his face.
Zhang Zhenping said: "Big brother, this is the first time in three years that you have gone home for a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, why bother to say these things that make your mother unhappy." β
"I haven't even said it yet, and you know what I'm trying to say?" Zhang Zhenan glanced up at him, Zhang Zhenping always had an inexplicable fear of him, and his eyes dodged.
As if he felt that this action seemed to be very unmanly, as if he was afraid of him, he straightened his chest again and said, "What will you do besides those things?" β
"What are those things?" Zhang Zhenan asked rhetorically.
Zhang Zhenping snorted coldly, but he couldn't say one, two, three.
The corners of Zhang Zhen'an's mouth hooked slightly, and his eyes swept him coldly, Zhang Zhenping lost three points of momentum for no reason, and did not dare to speak again.
Zhang Zhen'an saw that they didn't speak, so he looked at Wu Shi and said in a deep voice: "Mother, the past is over, I don't want to mention it again, but the clay man also has three points of anger, and some things can be one or two, not three times." β
Of course, Wu Shi knew what Zhang Zhenan was talking about, but she had always had a good face, so she only tightened her face and didn't speak again.
The atmosphere fell into condensation for a while, Zhang Zhenan looked at Wu Shi coldly, and said, "Why, mother doesn't even dare to give a promise?" Or are you still trying to go your own way? β
"I didn't!" Wu Shi put the chopsticks into the evening, making a crisp sound, and she shouted: "You are my son, will I harm you?" Everything I do is for your good. β
"For my good? Do you always use the excuse that it is for my own good, and for my own good, you want to put my wife and children in danger? β
Zhang Zhenan stared at Wu with cold eyes, Wu looked at him not to be outdone, the two confronted each other for a long time, and after half a sound, Zhang Zhenan shook his head: "Mother, I'm really disappointed in you." β
"I'm disappointed in you too." Not to be outdone, Wu replied.
Zhang Zhenan's momentum poured down suddenly, and he said lightly: "Then I think you will be even more disappointed in the future." β
"You ......" Wu Shi stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhang Zhen'an, trembling with anger and speechless.
"Brother Zhang, how can you talk to the old lady like this?" At this time, Ye Jingshu's soft voice sounded.
An Xiu'er looked at her incredulously when she heard this, and finally understood the shamelessness of a person, what qualifications did she have to say about him?
"Heh......" Zhang Zhenan glanced at Ye Jingshu and said, "Miss Ye, when you are a guest at someone else's house, don't you know your etiquette as a guest?" β
"I ......" Ye Jingshu didn't know how to answer Zhang Zhen'an's words, only with tears in her eyes, she glanced at him resentfully.
Zhang Zhenan was unmoved, and only said: "Actually, I have long felt that it is inappropriate, Miss Ye is such a big girl, and it is not appropriate to stay in our Zhang family all the time, especially on such an important occasion as our family banquet, I don't know in what capacity Miss Ye came to participate?" β
Ye Jingshu glanced up at him and said, "I'm your fiancΓ©e." β
"Not anymore." Zhang Zhenan stretched out his hand to take An Xiu'er and said, "I have already married a wife, I will not marry you again, and, from that moment three years ago, you are no longer my fiancΓ©e, don't you have self-knowledge?" β
"But you obviously know that I was also forced to be helpless, and your brother and I were just making a show at the time, and the old lady can also testify to this." Ye Jingshu explained to Zhang Zhen'an, her eyes were red, her face was full of tears, and she looked pitiful.
"You don't have to explain anything to me, it's none of my business whether you're forced to be helpless, I don't want to mention the past, and I don't want to know your hardships." Zhang Zhenan said coldly.
As if he didn't take her to heart at all, when he spoke, he reached out and put a piece of meat in An Xiu'er's bowl, and whispered in her ear: "Come, try this piece of chicken, it is raised with Chinese herbs, it is very replenishing, and eating it is good for your health." β
"Thank you." An Xiu'er lowered her head and took a small bite on the chicken pieces in the bowl.
Ye Jingshu's tears flowed even more, "Why don't you listen to my explanation?" What can I do? The old lady will be my mother-in-law in the future after all, don't I listen to her? What's more, at that time, my family's business had a problem, and the old lady said that as long as I helped her do this, she could help my family solve this problem. β
"You know that we just borrowed the seat to say a few insincere words, if you really love me, why don't you come to me afterwards, but just leave? It means that you don't believe me at all! Ye Jingshu yelled at him.
An Xiu'er was stunned, she didn't expect that this matter would be the reason, if she said so, then she was indeed forced to do so. She couldn't help but put herself in it, what would she do if her father and mother were in trouble? Maybe she won't refuse Wu's condition.
She couldn't help but look up at Zhang Zhen'an, thinking that he would be greatly shocked, but she didn't expect that his face would be extremely flat.
"Does it matter if I don't believe you? You know what your mother told you to do that, but you did it anyway, and if you were in trouble, why didn't you tell me? Zhang Zhen'an's tone was calm.
"At that time, you didn't have the ability to solve that matter for me!" Ye Jingshu argued.
"Yes, you didn't come to me, but chose to deceive me with others because I couldn't give you what you wanted, so what if you encounter any difficulties next time?"
"No, there will be no next time, I really had to do that time." Ye Jingshu shook her head in defense, crying fiercely, but Zhang Zhenan didn't even look at her, she couldn't help but put her eyes on An Xiu'er, and said, "An's, if you encounter such a thing, what will you do?" β
An Xiu'er had thought about it just now, and felt that her consideration should be similar to her, but after she heard Zhang Zhenan's words, she had more considerations, and she said, "I will make the same choice for you." β
"Listen, she's just like me." Ye Jingshu pointed at An Xiu'er and said.
"I'm not done yet." An Xiu'er continued: "But I will discuss it with the prime minister in advance, and we will collude first, so that my goal will be achieved, and he will not be sad because of this." β
"It's not that simple!" Ye Jingshu was annoyed and said angrily: "You don't understand anything at all!" β
"Why, didn't your mother allow you to meet with your father-in-law at that time? Then you can write a note and give it to the maid to take with you, or go there secretly at night, and at that time, I guess Mother didn't imprison you two, as long as you want, there will be a way. An Xiuer analyzed.
Ye Jingshu was speechless, yes, why didn't she think of this at that time? She thought that these things were all borne by herself through gritted teeth, she thought that she did it out of desperation, she was the most miserable and pitiful person, she had bitterness, but these were not reasons for others to forgive her.
"I'm sorry." She finally bowed her head and admitted her mistake to him, she said, "I know I was wrong, can you forgive me?" β
"I said a long time ago that the past has passed, how can I forgive me?" Zhang Zhenan looked at her obliquely, picked up the chopsticks and said, "Let's eat, if you talk about this, the food will be cold." β
Ye Jingshu picked up chopsticks to eat, but the taste of the food mixed with tears was really hard to swallow, and she finally ate something, but she only tasted the bitterness of tears.
Everyone ate silently, all the voices subsided, as if only the sound of the maids methodically preparing the dishes remained, and the meal was eaten for a long time, until the meals became cold and cold, and Wu asked the maids to remove the meals and replace them with some refreshments.
Everyone sat idle in the flower hall, but due to the previous incident, the atmosphere was a little cold, no one made a sound, Wu Shi still had a cold face, Zhang Zhenping looked like he had nothing to do with himself, Ye Jingshu's tears in the corners of her eyes had not yet dried, An Xiu'er lowered her head and sat there honestly without speaking.
Zhang Zhenan suddenly coughed and said: "Miss Ye, today is the New Year, we have spread out everything and made it clear, so after the New Year's Festival, I will let someone send you back, you have been in my house for so long, this is not good for the reputation of your girl's family." β
"What?" Ye Jingshu looked up at Zhang Zhen'an, "You actually want to send me away?" β
"Any questions?" Zhang Zhenan said, "You and I have no relationship now, and it is really inappropriate to stay in my house any longer." β
He said that he would not marry her, and that he had nothing to do with her, and these words shattered all the illusions in her heart, and in addition to the illusions, her heart was also broken.
"No, no problem." She bowed her head in reply, but tears fell like beads with broken threads.
She is really pitiful like this, but An Xiuer will not intercede for her, Wu is angry that she told the truth of the matter, saying that everything was instructed by her, she is already disgusted with her, naturally she will not speak for her anymore, and for a while, no one will keep her.
Ye Jingshu suddenly felt so sad, she had been in the Zhang family for so long, even if there was no other relationship, but at least they were friends, she didn't want to stay here, but they didn't even want to say a word verbally?
Oh, that's sad!
She's such a joke.
