The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

The Zhang family seemed very lively today, not because there were any distinguished guests, but because it was a simple matter of in-laws coming to visit. What was lively was not the scene, but the atmosphere.

Regarding Chen Wenchuan's visit, the two sisters, Ru Xue and Zhaoxue, may be the happiest. No, Ru Xue may be the only one who is happy. After all, Zhaoxue is worrying in her heart at the moment. Since then, I have been chatting with Mrs. Zhao about something. Of course, most of the topics revolve around Zhang Fan's two children. For his grandson and granddaughter, Chen Wenchuan really loves them very much. The full moon was full of wine, and he didn't even come to visit the two children when they were born, but this did not prevent Chen Wenchuan from loving the two children, even more so.

As for Zhang Fan, he was actually worried all the time. He didn't want to see Zhaoxue's current appearance, and he was also very anxious. Under such circumstances, Zhang Fan can only hope that the arrival of Chen Wenchuan will make Zhaoxue get out of his knot. As for himself, although he has not participated in this matter, it is related to him after all. How could Zhang Fan Come forward to persuade Zhao Xue about something.

But now, after Chen Wenchuan arrived, he didn't go to see Zhaoxue right away, but chatted with his mother. Regarding this, Zhang Fan felt a little relieved now, and it really was a very contradictory state of mind.

The two elders were chatting with the two juniors, while Zhang Fan and Ru Xue hid in the back hall, talking about something.

"Ru Xue, tell me, if my father-in-law is here, will it be useful?" Zhang Fan asked Ru Xue worriedly, "After all, according to Zhao Xue's temper, I'm afraid..."

"Please don't worry about this, Mr. Zhang." Ru Xue understood what Zhang Fan was worried about, and said, "Of course I know Zhaoxue very well. Although I was a bit self-willed since I was a child, I listened to my father's words quite well and never dared to be disobedient, it's just..."

"Just what?" Originally, Zhang Fan's heart was already a little relieved after hearing the first half of Ru Xue's words, but Ru Xue's word "just" made Zhang Fan's mind hang up again.

"Sir, people often say 'a woman's heart is a needle in the sea'. Although this concubine is Zhaoxue's own sister, I can't guess what Zhaoxue is thinking now." Ruxue also frowned and said, "Wait a minute When my father goes to see her, how will she react, whether she will listen to my father or go against my father's wishes, I am not sure at all right now, "

When Ru Xue said this, Zhang Fan's already frowning brows sank deeper. As I said before, Zhang Fan didn't do anything about this matter, but he was closely related to Zhang Fan. Now, Zhang Fan I felt even more upset, as if I had done something wrong.

It's funny to say that people often have to take a lot of responsibility for things they have never done before, and they also feel uneasy. Of course, they can pat their butts and not ask questions, and do their own way, but Zhang Fan is not that kind of person. He couldn't do that kind of thing, and most importantly, Zhang Fan really didn't have any thoughts about Zhaoxue.

Impossible, whether it is sincere, or Zhaoxue's thoughts prompted Zhang Fan to have an idea in his heart, in short, the present Zhang Fan definitely has Zhaoxue in his heart, and he definitely does not treat her as his wife and sister of.

This is also the reason why Zhang Fan really doesn't want to face Zhaoxue.

It is also for this reason that Zhang Fan has never seen her since Zhaoxue started to quarrel over this matter, and the more Zhang Fan sees her, the more Zhang Fan has such meaning in Zhaoxue's view, so she His little temper just got worse.

"You said..." Zhang Fan looked at his wife and asked hesitantly, "Will my father-in-law meet Zhaoxue later and ask me to settle the matter when he comes out?" What he said was rather reluctant, and the expression on his face was not sure whether it was amused or helpless, or a combination of both.

"Forget...forget it..." Ru Xue hesitated for a while when she heard what Zhang Fan said, and then said hesitantly, "No... no way..." It can be seen how much Ru Xue felt at this moment. uncertain.

"..." Hearing what Ru Xue said, Zhang Fan, who was already feeling very uncomfortable, felt even more uncomfortable in his heart at the moment. It seemed that even Ru Xue, who knew her father very well, could not help it. made an accurate judgment.

"No... no, it's not my husband's fault for this matter, why would my father lose his temper with him because of this?" Ru Xue said again when she saw Zhang Fan's expression.

But obviously, it was better not to say what she said. Now that she said it, not only did it not make Zhang Fan feel at ease, but it made him even more worried.

"Xianggong..." Seeing this, Ru Xue deserved to comfort her, "I don't know what will happen now, my father is watching Yan Yi and Yanyue brothers and sisters, and I haven't gone to see Zhaoxue yet, the matter has not yet come to an end, Xianggong I'm so afraid, what can I do, if the time comes... the meaning of my concubine is that maybe nothing will happen after my father comes out, "

What can Zhang Fan do about Ru Xue's words, he can only smile helplessly. Although it is true that the matter has not yet come to fruition as Ru Xue said, Zhang Fan feels that for this matter, He can still draw conclusions about things, and it seems that the conclusions he made will not deviate too far.

At this time, the back hall was quiet, and the husband and wife didn't know what to say. Zhang Fan's loss of energy was nothing to mention, and Ru Xue was very helpless in her heart. She really didn't think of it. , I comforted my husband for a long time, but I didn't expect that Zhang Fan not only did not relax, but his mood became even heavier.

The "giggling" laughter of the two children came from the front hall. It was originally such a happy atmosphere, but in the back hall, it seemed a little gloomy. It was really weird.

"If..." After a long time, Ru Xue said, "If my father agrees, will my husband agree?"

"This..." Zhang Fan never thought that Ru Xue would ask such a question. He had never considered this question, and now that Ru Xue asked it, he didn't know how to answer it.

Ru Xue also didn't seem to expect Zhang Fan to answer this question at all. After all, she also understood Zhang Fan's thoughts, but she still asked this question, which showed that she still wanted to know what Zhang Fan thought in her heart, and it also showed that she actually cared about this question very much. question.

"I haven't thought about it," Zhang Fan said truthfully, "I just don't know what you think, Ru Xue,"

"What does Mr. Xiang mean by that?" Ru Xue was a little confused.

"I mean..." Zhang Fan paused at this point, took a deep breath before continuing, "If my father-in-law agrees, and I agree, at that time, what will you think, Ru Xue? "

Although it is not a confrontation, Zhang Fan's question is obviously against Ru Xue's army. Ru Xue has never thought about this question, but this question is not as difficult to answer as the one she asked Zhang Fan just now. , but for a while, Ru Xue didn't know where to start.

"If you say you are happy, the concubine is telling a lie." Ru Xue thought for a while, and then said, "After all, the concubine is a woman, and a woman's selfishness seems to be a kind of power. If the concubine says she is happy, I'm afraid that's a lie. Even now, when Sister Ling'er and Sister Yingyue enter the door, although Ru Xue understands in her heart that her husband will not treat one more favorably than another, but if she says that there is really no trace of unhappiness in her heart, she is definitely lying. Human, after all, which woman does not want to be loved by her husband alone, even if it is the concubine's own sister, the concubine is unwilling in her heart.

"However, she is my own sister after all. If Zhaoxue was made to suffer all her life just to take care of me, what would the grievances I suffered be nothing?"

Hearing what Ru Xue said, Zhang Fan felt uncomfortable.

In fact, it is not something that is not allowed for biological sisters to marry the same husband. This kind of thing happened a lot in ancient times. Even in the Song Dynasty or the Yuan Dynasty, which is the closest to Ming Dynasty, the court has never allowed it. There is no law against doing this.

And in the Ming Dynasty, this kind of thing also existed, and the laws of the court did not say that it was not allowed, but in the Ming Dynasty, this kind of thing was very rare.

But now, according to Zhang Fan's status, if he married Zhaoxue now, not only would it not be something that he couldn't talk about to the outside world, but it would become a kind of capital to show off, but Zhang Fan really didn't think that this There is nothing worth showing off about such a thing, and he will never use women, especially his own women, as a bargaining chip to show off to others.

But now, this matter has caused so many troubles, which makes Zhang Fan feel very uncomfortable. In the final analysis, it is because of two things. One is that Zhang Fan cares too much about Ru Xue's feelings, and the other is that he is afraid Chen Wenchuan would disagree with this matter. In fact, in the final analysis, if Zhang Fan really married Zhaoxue, even if Chen Wenchuan disagreed, he could not do anything to him. In fact, in the final analysis, the two reasons are the same thing. Ru Xue was sad.

As for Zhang Fan himself, although he said that he hadn't considered this matter, it didn't mean that he didn't want to do it in his heart, and he also knew Zhaoxue's love for him in his heart.

Hu Si was thinking wildly in his head, and the voices talking in the front hall were getting closer and closer. It seemed that the two children were almost playing around.
