Chapter 284: Stepmother's Embarrassment
"What?"
"Zhang Yueniang has been named Mrs. Destiny?"
The ladies exclaimed in unison, looking at Zhang Yueniang with great envy.
Except for a few people such as Cai Jing and Wang Hao, who can even seal the maids who marry in the family, other women cannot get this title unless their husbands and sons have made great contributions.
Because the title of edict is not only a symbol of status, but also a very high honor that can go down in history, and it is the dream and pursuit of countless women in their lives.
Out of this cognition, the women looked at Liu Yueniang, who had just been married for less than half a year, and looked at her excessively young and pretty face, and couldn't help but feel sour in their hearts: This Zhang family's concubine is really well married!
Sun Jingshu, Sun Jingyi and Zhang Yue'e were even more jealous, full of unacceptable: "How is this possible? How old is she? How can it be made a decree? ”
"yes, I can't believe it!
Speaking of which, it's all thanks to my father for choosing a good official for me! ”
Zhang Yueniang smiled, and her heart was even more refreshed.
She never expected that Jiang Chen would really win her a prestigious title, which made her raise her eyebrows in front of her stepmother and sisters-in-law.
Uh-
Are you deliberately showing off?
Sun Jingshu and Zhang Yue'e were so angry that their faces turned blue for a while, and they felt that the whole person was not good.
And what makes them even more embarrassed and uncomfortable is:
When Huang Jingchen, the chief eunuch of the queen's cronies, read out the holy decree to enshrine Zhang Yueniang as a five-grade person, and gave the lady of the edict and the queen's Dongzhu gold hairpin, Zhang Yueniang first thanked her, and then bowed to Zhang Yuexin and Zhang Yueyao with the edict clothes:
"Yueniang has given a gift to her two younger sisters!
Although you and my fourth aunt expelled me from the Zhang family at the beginning, we were separated from each other. But you are right, the concubine is the concubine, the concubine is the concubine, since I have returned to the Zhang family, then it is appropriate to salute you! ”
"You ......"
Are you sincere in trying to ruin our reputation?
We can't get married, can we?
Zhang Yuexin and Zhang Yueyao looked at the lady dress in Zhang Yueniang's hand, and they were so frightened that their hair stood up, and they jumped to the side in a hurry, not daring to accept Liu Yueniang's gift at all.
Because if they do that, the queen will definitely teach them how to be people in minutes, and send them a letter of resignation, then their future marriage will be cold.
When Huang Jingchen saw this, he couldn't help but have a sinking face.
As Empress Zheng's hardcore confidant, he doesn't know how much benefit he has received from Jiang Chen these days, coupled with Zheng Yizhi's matchmaking, he has long regarded Jiang Chen as his own, and found that Zhang Yueniang seemed to be bullied here, and immediately asked in a cold voice:
"The Zhang family recognized the daughter this time, did they recognize a concubine? Wouldn't Master Jiang become the son-in-law of your Zhang family? The threshold of this Zhang family is really high! ”
Hearing this, the faces of Sun Jingshu and Zhang Yue'e instantly turned white with fright.
Seeing Huang Jingchen's posture, they knew which side the eunuch was on, and if they went back and told the official family and the queen to know, wouldn't Yuexin and Yueyao suffer?
So what to do?
They never expected that Zhang Yueniang, who was harmless to humans and animals, would be so powerful, and they couldn't help but look at Xiang for help.
Xiang Shi felt bitter in his heart, and hurriedly explained: "Huang Zhongguan, you have misunderstood! It's just a few little girls who are ignorant and chew their tongues! Yueniang is definitely the daughter of our Zhang family! ”
While Xiang Shi was speaking, he glared at Zhang Yuexin and Zhang Yueyao angrily and said, "What are you doing in a daze?" Why don't you hurry up and apologize to your five sisters?
Let me tell you, Yueniang has long had nothing to do with your four rooms, and she will only be the concubine of our fifth room in the future, and you will all be respectful to Yueniang in the future! Otherwise, don't blame the Zhang family's ruthlessness! ”
"Apologize to her?"
Zhang Yuexin and Zhang Yueyao's faces were full of reluctance, and this result was even more uncomfortable than killing them.
When Sun Jingshu saw it, she hurriedly pushed them, and said with a look in her eyes: "Don't go yet!" ”
"Yes."
Zhang Yuexin and Zhang Yueyao looked at Zhang Yueniang who was smiling, gritted their silver teeth, and said with great shame: "My sister has given a gift to the fifth sister, and there were many inappropriate words before, please don't blame the fifth sister!" ”
"The two sisters are polite, we will all be relatives in the future, so there is no need to be so polite!"
Zhang Yueniang's charming red lips hooked up a happy arc, and she turned sideways and saluted Sun Jingshu again:
"Fourth aunt, in fact, I don't blame the two cousins, the fourth aunt, please don't be careful, and don't punish the two sisters for this, otherwise that's Yueniang's!"
Fourth aunt?
Hehe, this Zhang Yueniang is really smart!
Xiang and the ladies all threw appreciative glances at Zhang Yueniang.
Knowing that Zhang Yueniang is taking the opportunity to officially break off the relationship with Sun Jingshu's mother and daughter, Sun Jingshu wants to use nonsense such as 'family affection and gratitude' to bully Zhang Yueniang in the future, and her name is not right!
Sun Jingshu also knew this, although she was unwilling, but in front of Huang Jingchen, she didn't dare to continue to mess around and play scoundrels, so she could only quibble unhappily: "Your two sisters are just joking with you, don't you want you to take it seriously?" ”
While speaking, Sun Jingshu glanced at Zhang Yueniang unhappily, and quickly changed the topic: "Huang Zhongguan is still standing here, don't worry about your two sisters, why don't you have a few more drinks with Huang Zhongguan?" ”
"The fourth aunt is right!"
Zhang Yueniang handed over the lady to Xiang'er, turned around and poured a glass of wine and handed it to Huang Jingchen, and said with a smile: "I have worked hard Huang Zhongguan today, the concubine respects you, please drink this cup!" ”
"Yo, how does this work?"
Huang Jingchen immediately put on a close smile when he faced Zhang Yueniang, drank wine and explained that Zhang Yueniang was going to thank the queen and saint tomorrow, and then said goodbye and left Zhang's mansion.
As soon as he left, the women immediately surrounded Zhang Yueniang like stars holding the moon, icing on the cake, and beautiful words continued.
Seeing that Sun Jingshu was full of depression, jealousy and hatred, and had the heart to leave and was afraid that she would lose her manners, she hid in the guest room under the pretext of having a headache.
Zhang Yue, Zhang Yueyao and Zhang Yuexin also quickly withdrew on the pretext of taking care of their mother.
Sun Cuiyun was worried that these self-righteous mothers-in-law and sisters-in-law would make trouble again, which would affect the future of her official Zhang Hongwen, so she praised Liu Yueniang a lot, and after easing the relationship, she also followed.
After not wanting to enter the guest room, I found that my mother-in-law Sun Jingshu was actually angry and crying by Zhang Yueniang.
While wiping his tears, he said aggrievedly: "Since your father is gone, people and ghosts have come to bully our orphans and widows, and now even a concubine has to ride on our heads, how can we live in the future?" Woowoo woo ......"
Zhang Yue'e and Zhang Yuexin remembered the 'hard days' when they had been glamorous on the surface over the years, but they had to rely on Zhang Shangying's rescue to maintain the dignity of the wealthy family, and they couldn't help but feel sad.
However, Zhang Yueyao suddenly said in a shocking voice: "A-Niang, what do you think of me going to Mrs. Jiang Chenru?" ”
