Relying on the system of criticizing people to become a god in farming literature

Chapter 26 Zhang Yufen’s defection
When Wang Meng was deeply in love with Cheng Yue'er, he would naturally treat her mother with courtesy.

Cheng Yue'er was led to the superior room of the inn by her servants. As soon as she entered, she was pulled over by Zhang Yufen who was waiting anxiously.

"Yue'er, what on earth is going on?"

"We didn't go back tonight. If your father didn't see anyone when he got home, I'm afraid he would be furious."

"When we get home tomorrow, where will there be good fruits for the two of us to eat?"

Faced with Zhang Yufen's anxious tone, Cheng Yue'er seemed careless and leisurely got up and wandered around the room.

"It is indeed a first-class room. It is so spacious and the lighting is exceptionally bright."

"Auntie, look at how warm this quilt is. You can have a good sleep tonight."

"Boom boom boom——"

Just as they were talking, there happened to be a knock on the door outside. Cheng Yue'er turned around in confusion and asked tentatively.

"who's that?"

I heard the boy running errands outside politely explain.

"Miss Cheng, my young master is worried that my mother's mother hasn't had her dinner yet, so she specially sent someone to deliver the roast duck from Jufulou."

"Please open the door and come get it."

Cheng Yue'er had never been treated with such respect by someone. She felt so comfortable that her back straightened up a lot.

He walked to the door, opened it and saw the young man's flattering smile.

"Miss Cheng, please pick it up so that I can go back and recover."

Cheng Yue'er took the roast duck that had been sliced ​​and neatly stacked, and pretended not to care, waving her hand to signal the other party to get down.

The boy nodded and bowed for a while, then turned and left.

Cheng Yue'er brought the roast duck into the house and asked Zhang Yufen to come and eat.

"Mommy, you're really hungry. Why are you standing here stupidly? Come over and eat roast duck."

"This is no ordinary duck, it is Jufulou's signature dish. Ordinary people have to make reservations in advance if they want to eat it."

Zhang Yufen moved to sit next to Cheng Yue'er with some disbelief, looked at the oily duck meat in the bowl, and swallowed.

"This...this plate is all for me?"

"Yue'er, have you eaten? Let's eat together."

Cheng Yue'er shook her head nonchalantly and said lightly.

"I've already eaten, Auntie. Don't worry, Mr. Wang has already paid the money. Just eat boldly."

Zhang Yufen's eyes wandered up and down for a while, but she finally couldn't hold it back and picked up a piece of it and ate it with chopsticks.

The tender duck meat was fragrant on the lips and teeth. Zhang Yufen was indeed hungry and couldn't care too much. She planned to chat slowly with her daughter after a full meal.

The Cheng family is poor, and there are not many days when they can eat meat throughout the year.

During the New Year and festivals, you can only see meat and fish.

Most of it went into the men's stomachs, and women like them could only eat the leftover scraps.

Zhang Yufen became more and more anxious as she ate, and her lips were stained with oil stains.

Cheng Yue'er didn't speak, nor did she stop Zhang Yufen's movements, she just watched quietly.

After more than half of the plate of duck meat was eaten, Zhang Yufen also had something in her stomach, and her movements gradually slowed down.

Along the way, he swept away all the side dishes at the bottom of the plate. Finally, he licked his lips with unsatisfied taste and let out a satisfied sigh.

"Yue'er, grandma is full. Please tell her what happened."

Cheng Yue'er did not choose to tell Zhang Yufen directly what happened, but asked her a question. "Auntie, do you still want to eat meat in the future?"

Zhang Yufen nodded blankly. Why should I ask? Who doesn't want to eat meat?

"If I really follow dad's arrangement and marry that butcher Zhang, then dad and my brother will still eat the meat in the family from now on."

"But if I follow the prince, the meat in the future will be for you to eat."

"What would Aniang choose?"

Zhang Yufen's mind finally turned around now. A flash of inspiration flashed through her mind, and she instantly understood who the Prince Cheng Yuer was talking about.

"Yue'er, the prince you are talking about is not the richest man in town, the Wang family who made their fortune by reselling furs, right?"

Cheng Yue'er's expression didn't change and she just nodded lightly.

"Oh my god, how could you get together with him?"

"Then Young Master Wang...isn't really a good man at all!"

Hearing this, Cheng Yue'er couldn't help but snorted and said sarcastically.

"Although this prince is not a good man, at least he is still young, generous and gentle to me."

"As long as I find a way to coax him well, the days ahead will naturally be easier."

"Always much better than that lecherous and violent Butcher Zhang!"

Zhang Yufen was in the wrong and knew that what Cheng Yue'er said was indeed true, so she didn't dare to refute it.

"Auntie, I know that you put your father and brother first in everything at home, and I will always be the one you put last."

"I don't expect you to have a big change. I just want to give you another chance for the sake of our mother-daughter relationship."

"If you still stand on the same line as dad and insist on marrying me to that butcher Zhang, then no matter what happens to you at home after tomorrow, I will never help you again."

Zhang Yufen was shocked and immediately understood that Cheng Yue'er had already found a way to escape, and now he was just informing her.

"Yue'er, what do you mean?"

"Then the prince really wants to accept you?"

Cheng Yue'er fiddled with the new bracelet on her wrist, her eyes filled with pride.

"Of course, the prince will accompany me back tomorrow to arrange that outrageous marriage!"

"When the marriage is over, I will leave directly with Prince Wang. Mother, please pay more attention to me in the future!"

Zhang Yufen's mind was spinning rapidly. She was about to fly out of her shabby thatched cottage as her daughter was about to fly out. It was time to make some decisions.

After being oppressed for so many years, Zhang Yufen finally had a chance to benefit herself. Zhang Yufen only hesitated for a moment before immediately switching sides.

"Don't worry Yue'er, my mother-in-law supports you!"

"Tomorrow we will take Prince Wang back with us. I don't think anyone in your father's nest will dare to offend him."

"When you live a good life in the Wang family, don't forget about mother."

"Among my three children, you are the most considerate."

Hearing Zhang Yufen's words, Cheng Yuer's face also showed a smile.

Over the years, she knew that although Zhang Yufen loved her, he still favored sons over daughters, and she valued her two younger brothers more.

Now that he has a backer and ability, even his mother-in-law has to look at his face to do things.

This feeling of being proud and proud made Cheng Yue'er extremely satisfied. Things were different now, and she was about to leave that small village.

But I don’t know if Cheng Yue’er will think back on today’s events in a few days, will she regret that she made the wrong choice and bet on the wrong chips?
