There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 1156
[Chapter 1155, Redemption 6]
Huahan, who felt a mother’s love personally for the first time, walked out of the Wutong courtyard excitedly, until he returned to his own courtyard, his mind was still thinking about how she got along with Yan Yile.
“Aunt Anran, just now my mother said that tomorrow she will teach me how to burn incense and arrange flowers, am I right?”
Looking at the excited Zhang Huahan, An Ran felt a little sad, and said with a smile: “Miss, you heard right, burning incense and arranging flowers. They are all homework necessary for every lady, I think back then, the master and the princess studied together, and several of them were top-notch among the sisters.”
Zhang Huahan paused: “Princess?”
What princess?
Who is the princess?
Could it be that there was a princess among the mother’s sisters? !
An Ran thought for a while, and decided to explain the situation of the Yan family to Zhang Huahan in detail, so as not to go to the provincial capital in July and cause trouble due to ignorance of the situation.
“The Yan family has a total of three houses, and the master comes from the second house of the Yan family.”
“Among the three houses of the Yan family, the eldest house of the Yan family is the most prominent. There is no other reason, because the famous Princess Weiyuan comes from the first house of the Yan family.”
Zhang Huahan was stunned . Living.
Even though Princess Weiyuan
seldom goes out, she still has heard about the Princess Weiyuan who spread high-yielding grains to all parts of Great Xia.
“Princess Weiyuan turned out to be…”
An Ran sighed and nodded: “Yes, Princess Weiyuan is the girl’s aunt… You not only have an uncle who is a prince, but also a cousin who is a prince, who is a prince. My second cousin, and the princess’s cousin.”
Zhang Huahan didn’t know what expression to make, she was the daughter of a small merchant, and suddenly there were so many relatives of the royal family.
She has to take it easy!
An Ran continued: “The eldest son of the Yan family not only produced a princess, but also a secretary of the household department and a navy commander. Before your grandfather became an official, he was also a second-rank official residence.”
“The third house of the Yan family is weaker. But now the commander of Jin Lingwei is your third cousin, your fifth and sixth cousins started later, but now they are all holding important positions in the local area.”
“Among the three houses, the weakest one is the second house. Whether it’s the first room or the third room, they are all supported by their brothers, and only the second room is supported by the girl’s uncle alone.”
“But fortunately, the uncle and master are now in their prime. A provincial chief envoy is also the imperial court’s frontier. Great official.”
Hearing this, Zhang Huahan couldn’t calm down for a long time, although she knew that Yan’s family was higher than Zhang’s, but she never thought it would be so much higher!
So, how did the mother marry the father?
Zhang Huahan didn’t dare to think about it deeply, so he could only force himself to ignore this problem.
An Ran looked at Zhang Huahan: “Slave said something presumptuous, Zhang’s success today is all due to the glory of Yan’s family, so girl, you can stand upright in Zhang’s family and don’t need to be afraid of anyone.”
The situation of Yan’s family It was so unexpected, Zhang Huahan’s mood fluctuated a bit, and he just nodded indiscriminately.
It’s no wonder that
the Yan family is so prominent, and it’s no wonder that grandma can only avoid her mother’s edge and choose to give in and compromise;
no wonder no matter how dissatisfied others are, Zhang Jiaming has to be the first to pick out the good things on Zhang Jiaming’s face.
All the perplexities that have been lingering in my heart have been answered today.
An Ran didn’t say any more, she quietly waited aside, waiting for Zhang Huahan to slowly digest.
After a night of digestion, when Zhang Huahan came to the Wutong Courtyard again, he couldn’t see anything on his face. He just looked at his mother who taught him how to burn incense and arrange flowers carefully. Zhang Huahan couldn’t help feeling sour in his heart.
The more prominent the Yan family was, the more pitiful she felt for her mother.
The father had a first wife before him, and several concubines later, the sons and daughters of the first sons and daughters, and the sons and daughters of the sons and daughters.
Thinking of this, she couldn’t help feeling sad and worthless for her mother.
In the past, she felt that her mother ignored Zhang’s family and her father, which was too extreme, but at this moment, she no longer had such thoughts.
It was also from this day that Zhang Huahan went to Wutong Courtyard more and more frequently.
When eating, Zhang Huahan prepares vegetables by himself, and makes tea when drinking tea. Zhang Huahan tries his best to do everything he can do by himself.
The mother was too miserable and lonely. In the whole Zhang family, she was the only relative left. As for the rest of the Zhang family, they only cared about the Yan family standing behind their mother.
Yan Yile naturally felt Zhang Huahan’s hospitality, and she was a little uncomfortable at first, but she got used to it gradually.
The servants of the Indus Courtyard keenly noticed that the number of times the eldest lady got angry became less, and she no longer kept a straight face every day, and occasionally saw her showing a gentle expression.
Time slipped away bit by bit, Zhang Huahan learned the etiquette rules better and better, and the relationship with Yan Yile became more and more harmonious, and the two of them no longer got along as uncomfortable as they did at the beginning.
Under An Ran’s training, Xiangxiexuan’s servants became more disciplined, and the rest of the Zhang family couldn’t find a place to inquire about Zhang Huahan.
Everyone in the Zhang family watched this change silently.
In the blink of an eye, it was June, and seeing Yan Yile send people out of the mansion to buy things a few times, the members of the Zhang family knew that Zhang Huahan was about to go to the provincial government.
This time, everyone in the Zhang family couldn’t sit still.
Going to the provincial government to pay political envoy Yan Buzheng’s birthday, let’s not talk about other things, just saying it is enough for people to look at it, not to mention, maybe you can make friends with high officials and dignitaries.
Especially the second and third girls who are negotiating marriage are the most eager, as long as they can go to the governor’s mansion, even if the trip is for nothing, it will be beneficial to the marriage.
Miss Zhang naturally wanted to go too, she was about to marry into the county magistrate’s family, if her in-laws knew that she had contacts with the Chief Minister’s Mansion, they would definitely be highly regarded after entering the door.
On the sixth day of June, Zhang Huahan came to pay his respects to Mrs. Zhang as usual. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Mrs. Zhang and others staring at her.
Today’s Zhang Huahan really doesn’t look like a girl from the Zhang family. Every gesture she makes is in the style of everyone, and her whole body is full of elegance.
Miss Zhang took the lead to break the silence with a smile: “Fifth sister, this dress of yours doesn’t seem to be made of ordinary material. Where did you buy it? I’ll make another set tomorrow?”
Zhang Huahan: “…This material is not I bought it outside, and it was given by my mother.”
Miss Zhang’s expression froze, she smiled embarrassingly, and said nothing.
The stepmother came from the Yan family. She heard from her grandmother that when the stepmother married into the Zhang family, although the dowry was not very rich, most of it was good things that the Zhang family could not buy.
Miss Zhang Er stared at the Diancui jewelry on Zhang Huahan’s head, and asked in seconds: “Then the jewelry on your head was also given by your aunt?”
Zhang Huahan nodded.
Second Miss Zhang curled her lips sourly: “Auntie is enough to spoil Fifth Sister. You are wearing something we have never seen before.” The
other girls also had similar expressions. The Zhang family has money. But in this ancient time with strict hierarchy, there are many things that money cannot buy.
Zhang Huahan directly ignored Miss Zhang Er, got up and was about to say goodbye to Mrs. Zhang, but at this moment, Mrs. Zhang spoke up. ”Hua Han, we heard
that you are going to the provincial government for a while?”
Zhang Huahan glanced at her, then at the old lady Zhang, and nodded, “Yes, mother asked me to pay my respects to uncle’s birthday.”
With that, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became silent.
The old lady Zhang quickly came back to her senses, and said with a smile: “You child, why didn’t you tell us about such a big event in advance, since it is my uncle’s birthday, our family should express it.”
Zhang Huahan pondered for a moment: “Grandmother, this is Huahan’s first visit to my uncle’s house. What mother means is to keep everything simple.” The
old lady Zhang paused, and then smiled: “Your mother is still considerate, but, No matter how simple it is, you can’t let a little girl go out alone, can you?”
Mrs. Zhang answered immediately: “That’s right, we don’t worry about you going out as a little girl. In this way, let your second sister and the others go with you. It’s good to have someone to accompany you on the road.” Miss
Zhang Er and the others also echoed.
Zhang Huahan was noncommittal, but said: “I have to ask my mother about this.”
Mrs. Zhang wanted to say something, but she was stopped by Mrs. Zhang.
The old lady Zhang looked at Zhang Huahan kindly: “I should ask your mother what she means, but it is not suitable for you to go on the road with a girl’s family. You have to talk to your mother about this.”
Zhang Huahan gave a ‘huh’, and So he got up and left.
After arriving at Wutongyuan, Zhang Huahan told Yan Yile that the Zhang family wanted to go to the provincial government together.
Yan Yile was not surprised at all. Businessmen were after profits, and they would go where there was profit. She knew the nature of the Zhang family very well.
“What do you think about this?”
Zhang Huahan looked at her expression carefully, and said carefully: “Mother, I think so. It is really inconvenient for me to go out alone. Since I must be accompanied by someone, why don’t I call my elder brother and Big sister.”
Yan Yile didn’t speak, as if she was waiting for Zhang Huahan to continue.
Zhang Huahan continued: “Big Brother and Big Sister, and I, after all, come from the same father, so we are closer than those of the second and third families, and the interests between us are also stronger.”
Hearing this, Yan Yile There was a little reaction.
For the Zhang family, she instinctively felt disgusted, and it was impossible for her to support them.
If Hua Han wanted to tell her that it was a family, she would definitely reject it directly, but when she heard her mentioning the word “interest”, she was willing to continue listening.
“My daughter knows that my grandfather’s family is very prominent, but my daughter is from the Zhang family after all. If she gets married in the future and suffers grievances in her husband’s family, she may be able to rely on her grandfather’s family, but she will rely more on her mother’s family.
” The relationship on the family side, my daughter thinks that it should be used wisely, and try not to bother as much as possible, after all, love cannot bear the burden.”
“Furthermore, the relationship between my daughter and the Zhang family is constantly breaking up, as long as it is not too much trouble.” It’s too much, if you don’t want to tear your face, it’s better not to tear your face.”
“This time, grandma and the others are so active, if you really don’t agree to them at all, I’m afraid there will be a rift.”
“Once there is dislike, they Maybe I won’t do anything excessive, but it’s very easy to rely on my status as an elder to cause me some trouble.”
Hearing these words, Yan Yile was a little dazed, and stared blankly at her childish-looking daughter.
Zhang Huahan didn’t notice, and continued to say: “Talk to my mother from the bottom of my heart, my grandmother and the others have treated me like that all these years, and there is no relationship. If this is the case, then my daughter will only talk about gains and losses with them.”
” If the Zhang family wants to get benefits from me, they have to give something correspondingly, and correspondingly, if the daughter wants to get the support of the Zhang family, she should also give something.”
“In this way, everyone gets what they need, and no one is in debt. Who.”
Yan Yile stared at Zhang Huahan without saying a word for a long time.
Zhang Huahan was so confused that she couldn’t help but said: “Mother, this is just my daughter’s random thinking. If you think my daughter is wrong, please correct me.”
Yan Yile regained her senses and shook her head: “No, you didn’t think about it. Wrong, you are right in what you said.” After a moment of silence, “Just do as you said.”
After speaking, he waved his hand, indicating that Zhang Huahan could step back.
After Zhang Huahan left, Yan Yile was distracted for a while, and then sighed after regaining consciousness: “Huahan is more transparent than me.”
Back then, if she could have figured this out, why would she have come to this point where she had to stay in the Zhang family’s back house.
After Zhang Huahan came out of Wutong Courtyard, she went back to her own yard directly. She didn’t intend to immediately tell about the fact that her elder brother and elder sister could go to the provincial government together. It made people anxious for a few days. Maybe it would be better for her and the Zhang family .
However, on the way, he ran into Mr. Zhang.
Ever since knowing the real situation of the Yan family, Zhang Huahan felt a little uncomfortable every time he faced Mr. Zhang.
The father must have used tricks to marry the mother.
Grandpa Zhang came to see Zhang Huahan in person this time, naturally it was to go to the provincial government to pay Yan Wenjie’s birthday. He knew that the Yan family didn’t want to see him, and he didn’t want to go by himself, but he wanted his son-in-law to accompany Zhang Huahan.
In any case, the relationship between the Zhang family and the Yan family cannot be broken just like that.
Zhang Huahan looked at his father who was so earnest and analyzed various pros and cons with him, and felt a little sad in his heart, for himself and for his mother.
The mother is the springboard for the Zhang family to climb to the powerful, and she is only a tool to maintain the relationship between the Zhang family and the Yan family.
“Father, I have already talked to my mother about this matter. I will let you know when there is a result. I practiced making tea for a whole day today, and I am a little tired. I want to go back and rest first.”
Elder Zhang moved his lips, I still wanted to say something, but finally nodded: “Okay, you go back and rest.”
Seeing Zhang Huahan’s back going away, Elder Zhang frowned.
He couldn’t see his daughter’s estrangement, and he didn’t want to talk about gains and losses with his daughter, but as the head of the family, he had to think about the future of the Zhang family.
Hey, the relationship between him and Yi Le’s mother and daughter is a bit shallow after all.
While the Zhang family waited anxiously, it was not until mid-June that Zhang Huahan told everyone that Uncle Zhang and Miss Zhang could accompany them.
As a result, the eldest family of the Zhang family was happy, but the second and third families were not happy.
It’s a pity that Zhang Huahan didn’t care about their displeasure at all. Apart from paying her respects to Mrs. Zhang, she stayed in Wutong Courtyard all the time. Even if the Zhang family wanted to bother her, they didn’t dare to find her.
On June 29th, Zhang Huahan, accompanied by Uncle Zhang and Miss Zhang, boarded the carriage to the provincial capital.
In Wutong courtyard, Yan Yile stood in front of the window in a daze for a long time.
After marrying into the Zhang family, she never saw her natal family again, didn’t she want to? She thought, but she didn’t have the face to see her brother and sister-in-law.
Maybe not seeing is for the best.
At least in this way, the second elder brother and second sister-in-law will treat Hua Han more sincerely in terms of brotherhood.
Hua Han has reached Ji, the Zhang family is in such a situation, if they want to talk about a good family, they have to rely on the help of their elder brother and sister-in-law.
Yan Yile showed a wry smile. In the past, she always thought that her eldest sister could get happiness by herself, so she naively thought that she could do the same, but in the end, she still asked to go to Yan’s house.
On the carriage to the provincial capital, Zhang Huahan was a little silent.
She didn’t know what the conflict between her mother and the Yan family was, but she knew that her mother, who hadn’t been in touch with her natal family for so many years, had given up her inner pride for her sake this time.
