Chapter 51
Zhang Yuqing said indifferently: "Ma'am, if you marry an old man, you can marry an old man. After all, he is rich and powerful, and I am not unwilling. It is really impossible for you to threaten me with this."

"It's easy to say!" Mrs. Zhang didn't believe that a little girl who hadn't reached her age was not afraid. She only thought that Zhang Yuqing was a stubborn duck.

Zhang Yuqing smiled calmly, "Even if I'm a concubine, I can make the old man happy and turn me into a good lady. Even if I don't become a good lady, there are still ways to let the minister of the official department take care of your son and daughter." Crying for father and mother! Madam, I advise you to be more polite to me."

"How dare you!" Mrs. Zhang yelled angrily, "You have such vicious thoughts at such a young age! Our Zhang family provides you with food and drinks, how can I be sorry for you, and you want to take revenge on the Zhang family!"

Zhang Yuqing glanced at her, and said flatly, "Each of you knows how you treat me."

"White-eyed wolf! If I hadn't been kind enough to take you in, you would have died a long time ago!" Mrs. Zhang yelled regardless of her appearance, thinking of handing over the two Zhuangzi to Zhang Yuqing, and making up for so many years of income , she wished she could beat Zhang Yuqing to death on the spot.

However, Lu Wei said that if they attack Zhang Yuqing again, he will withdraw from the marriage of the Zhang family. Don't be such a vicious wife and mother-in-law.

Mrs. Zhang was controlled everywhere, and it was the first time she experienced such a moment of helplessness and resentment, how could she not hate Zhang Yuqing.

Zhang Yuqing looked at her indifferently.

Wang Chunniang was anxious and angry, fearing that Zhang Yuqing would suffer, she shouted: "Madam, our girl has already been hired by the Luo family!".

Mrs. Zhang sneered, "Hire? When did you hire me? The Luo family really wanted to hire you, but why haven't you seen a matchmaker come to your door? I sent someone to visit Luo's house before. Already!"

Wang Chunniang's eyes widened in shock, and she glanced at Zhang Yuqing.

Zhang Yuqing held Wang Chunniang's hand, signaling her not to panic.

Just when Mrs. Zhang was triumphant, a servant girl ran over in a panic from outside the yard, screaming: "It's bad! Ma'am, it's bad! The master is going to kill the young master!"

Mrs. Zhang was so surprised that she ignored Zhang Yuqing, walked out of the room quickly, and asked repeatedly: "What's going on? And why?"

"The results of the township examination have been released, but there is no young master's name on the list, the master is very angry..." The maid did not dare to continue.

Mrs. Zhang had been running outside without stopping, her heart was burning, and she scolded: "Is the list announced today? Why don't you hurry up and lead the way!"

Wang Chunniang walked up to Zhang Yuqing and asked, "Are you still going out to have a look?"

"Seeing her son being beaten?" Zhang Yuqing snorted.

That being said, Zhang Yuqing still took Wang Chunniang out, but instead of entering Mrs. Zhang's courtyard, she hid outside the courtyard wall and watched the excitement through the carved railings on the courtyard wall.

Hundreds of people from Zhang's residence flocked to Mrs. Zhang's yard and surrounded the gate of the yard, so crowded that nothing could get through.

Mrs. Zhang stopped Zhang Zuozhen, and a sharp voice came through the courtyard wall, "Why are you beating him! You didn't pass the exam this time, just try again next time! You beat him up, and I will fight you hard!"

"I said I won't let him go, but you insist on letting him take the exam, to show off that your son is capable and good at learning! What about now? It's a shame to fail the exam even for a scholar!" Zhang Zuozhen cursed, holding a stick.

Zhang Yuqian's crying sound was caught in the quarrel between the two, which was particularly ear-piercing.

"You said it yourself, how did you promise me at the beginning? You said that you will know what the teacher taught you, and you will definitely end up in the end, and you can still get some top positions! It's all a lie to me!" Zhang Zuozhen was furious, and pushed Mrs. Zhang away, A stick hit Zhang Yuqian on the back.

Mrs. Zhang screamed and began to cry.

Zhang Yuqian knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "I didn't coax you, I, I'm actually good at learning!"

"I don't know how to memorize even an article. What is it? If it's okay, how can you fail the exam, and you can't even pass the exam as a scholar?" Zhang Zuozhen was furious, "You have lost the face of the Zhang family's ancestors for generations!"

Zhang Yuqian yelled: "Who let a broom star live in the family! She has tainted all my good luck into bad luck! Since she came into the house, our family has never had a safe life! I could have passed the exam!"

"It's all because of me that he didn't pass the examination as a scholar?" Zhang Yuqing looked back at Wang Chunniang, in disbelief.

Wang Chunniang frowned and said, "This young master of the Zhang family is too bad!"

On the other side of the courtyard wall, Zhang Zuozhen said angrily: "Nonsense! If you don't learn well yourself, you'll just pass the responsibility on to others!"

In all fairness, since returning Zhuangzi to Zhang Yuqing, Zhang Zuozhen has no good feelings towards this cheap niece, but he knows that his son's failure is due to lack of effort in his studies, and it cannot be blamed on the cheap niece.

"I'm not talking nonsense! It's just that she is messing up the wind and rain at home, making me unable to study my homework at ease!" Zhang Yuqian shouted, sticking his neck.

Zhang Zuozhen was furious, and when she raised her hand and was about to slap her, Mrs. Zhang couldn't stand it anymore, she jumped up and fought with Zhang Zuozhen, crying like a shrew, "If you want to hit me, kill me! It's been an eyesore to our mother! Beat us all to death, so you can marry a young and sensible one!"

"It's best to kill you!" Zhang Zuozhen's eyes were red, looking at Mrs. Zhang as if she were an enemy, new and old hatred rushed into her heart, "You are the poisonous woman who taught our good children of the Zhang family to be like this Good job! If it weren't for you, why would our Zhang family be here!"

The servants screamed, seeing the two masters wrestling, they would not dare to step forward for a while.

At this time, the servants carried the old lady over, and the old lady looked at the couple fighting on the ground, trembling with anger, shouted: "Hurry up and pull away!"

Several women rushed forward and separated the couple, who were blushing from the beating.

Zhang Zuozhen's fair and handsome face was scratched with bloodstains. Mrs. Zhang was even worse. Although she was fierce, she was not a match for Zhang Zuozhen in physical strength. She was pressed to the ground by Zhang Zuozhen. His head was like a pig's head, his bun was messed up, and he was crying like a crazy woman, yelling that he was not alive and was going to die.

"Let her die!" Zhang Zuozhen shouted hoarsely, with hatred in her eyes, "It's best to die! The whole family will live in peace!"

Zhang Yuying also came over now, crying and hugging Mrs. Zhang together with Zhang Yuqian.

"Father, don't talk about mother like that!" Zhang Yuying begged.

The old lady looked at the messy place, her son and daughter-in-law who had turned against each other, she let out a long sigh, and turbid old tears fell down.

If her eldest son was still alive, how could the Zhang family come to this field?

Zhang Zuozhen wanted to rush to beat Mrs. Zhang, but was stopped by the old lady.

"It's not embarrassing enough!" the old lady scolded.

Zhang Zuozhen gritted her teeth and said, "She taught the child like this, shouldn't she be beaten?"

The old lady said angrily: "The child does not belong to her alone. You usually only know how to drink and have fun outside, and you don't care about the child when you go home. When you think of it, you just curse a few times. What right do you have to say about your wife?"

Mrs. Zhang was feeling aggrieved, when she heard a fair word, she burst into tears, hugged the two children and cried, "I'm not for this family, but for the children!"

Zhang Zuozhen saw that even the youngest child Zhang Yujin ran in and cried loudly, so she could only stamp her feet.

"Grandmother!" Zhang Yuqian cried out with tears in his eyes.

The old lady looked at Zhang Yuqian, who was already half a child, and thought that the child didn't think about his own faults, and was looking for reasons blindly, and she was very disappointed.

The third generation in the family is only Zhang Yuqian, Zhang Yucheng and Zhang Yujin. Zhang Yucheng is straightforward and has no talent for reading. Zhang Yujin is only three years old.She can count on Zhang Yuqian to be the only one who can lead Zhang's family to the sky, but Zhang Yuqian is like a helpless fool who has no hope at all!
Her Tanhualang Zuoming is a 12-year-old scholar, a young talent, what a beauty!With jewels like Zhang Zuoming in front of them, Zhang Zuozhen and his son are like fish eyes on the ground. They are also incompetent, have a bad temper, have no sense of responsibility, and can't afford anything.

"Brother Qian, don't be discouraged, this time it's time to practice experience in the examination room." The old lady forced a smile, "You are still young, don't worry about it for a while, study hard, and let your father accompany you well this year Study for one year, and you will definitely pass the exam next year!"

Zhang Yuqian said angrily, "I don't need him to accompany me!"

"Little bastard, say it again!" Zhang Zuozhen pointed at Zhang Yuqian and was furious, as if she wanted to beat him with a stick.

Zhang Yuying covered Zhang Yuqian's mouth, and said anxiously: "You are enough! Don't talk about it! Make it up to your father!"

Zhang Zuozhen looked at Zhang Yuqian who was rebellious and disobedient, and shouted angrily: "I can't afford to be his father! I'm not his father, I'm his enemy!"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Zuozhen threw away the stick in his hand, turned around and strode away, leaving the crying mother and child behind.

The old lady comforted Mrs. Zhang a few words, asked her to go back to the room to tidy up, and left.

Mrs. Zhang dragged Zhang Yuqian back to the house, and asked the servant girl to back down. She looked at Zhang Yuqian angrily, gritted her teeth and asked, "Didn't you say you bought the paper? Why didn't you pass the exam?"

Zhang Yuqian felt aggrieved, "When I entered the examination room, I was dumbfounded when I saw the paper! It wasn't the paper they gave me at all!"

"Then why didn't you tell me when you came back from the exam!" Mrs. Zhang's eyes darkened in anger, 3000 taels of silver!She dared not tell anyone about it at all.

Fortunately Zhang Zuozhen didn't know, if he knew, he would have beaten him harder.

"What should I say! I'm going to tell you, you have to scold me, and father has to beat me to death!" Zhang Yuqian yelled, "I thought that if I win, this matter will be over, but who would have expected such bad luck, I'm not on the list! After all, it's all due to that broom star, she sucked away all the good luck from our family!"

Zhang Yuying was startled when she heard that, "Why buy papers?" Suddenly her eyes flashed, she looked at Zhang Yuqian in shock, "You spend money to buy papers? You're crazy!"

Mrs. Zhang said angrily: "He was deceived! That paper must be fake!"

"How much did you cheat?" Zhang Yuying asked.

Zhang Yuqian said impatiently: "It's not much money, just 3000 taels!"

"What?" Zhang Yuying was almost unsteady, leaning on the table, looked at Mrs. Zhang suddenly, and complained: "Mother is really confused, Brother Qian is still young, so it is easy to be deceived, how can you give the money to Brother Qian?" My son! Don’t even think about it, who would dare to commit the crime of beheading for a mere 3000 taels of silver!”

Mrs. Zhang seemed to see Zhang Yuying just now, and excitedly pulled her, "My good boy, you came just in time! You go to Mr. Lu and ask him to help you get the money back!"
