The daily life of the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, thick black

Chapter 190 Peng's
In fact, life is not so difficult.

It's just that, for Zhang Ruoai, the fat man in the past, he felt that he had chosen the wrong name.

Just because everyone calls him now...

"Brother Ai..."

Ha ha.

Shorty or Shorty?

I really can't be too proud of being a human being...

Zhang Ruoai didn't know what to say anymore, when he came back from school that day, Aunt Qingdai at the door called him that, and everyone burst out laughing.

"Brother Ai..."

His unreliable mother was the first to fall down with a smile, and she almost shed tears of laughter.

All the melancholy and melancholy that Gu Huaixiu had before were all gone in an instant.

How can it be so funny?

From a fat guy to a short guy, a huge progress in life!

"I can't do it...Qing Dai, come and rub it for me..."

Gu Huaishu bent down and pointed at Zhang Ruoai, feeling a little sympathetic to this kid. Looking at the tall man, it was understandable for him to be called "Fat Brother" before, but now he suddenly shouted and became "Short Brother" Son", I feel pitiful.

Although he is his own son, Gu Huaishu has never had the slightest sense of taking care of this kid's self-esteem.

The little fat man almost grew up under his mother's blows, and he finally knows how to resist in the past few years, but...

Jiang is still old and spicy, can he compare with his mother?
Now seeing Gu Huaishu pointing at herself and laughing non-stop, the corners of Zhang Ruoai's mouth twitched violently.

Seeing that all the maids in the room were laughing, he muttered, "Why don't we call him Xiaopang..."

"You have already entered the school, how can you still be called a nickname? You chose your name yourself, and it will follow you for the rest of your life." Gu Huaishu finally stopped smiling, and she waved Zhang Ruoai over, "Because I don't know if God will give it to you. I give you a life, so when you were just born, you didn’t have a big name, but now you have one, you still choose it yourself. You must know that you have to choose and walk the road of the world by yourself. Now you are nine years old, and you will be crowned after 11 years. If you are a real adult, your father will give you the characters at that time."

However, there are also people who took their characters very early, but the brothers of the Zhang family didn't get their characters until they were twenty.

Zhang Tingzan, courtesy name Youchen; Zhang Tingyu, courtesy name Hengchen; Zhang Tinglu, courtesy name Baochen; Zhang Tingyu, courtesy name Huanchen.

But I don't know what will happen to Ge Er's calligraphy after 11 years.

Gu Huaishu thought about it, and originally wanted to reach out to touch Zhang Ruoai's head, but after thinking about it, he slid down again and patted him on the shoulder: "From now on, I will be a little adult."

Zhang Ruoai still doesn't understand his mother's eyes, she just thinks it's weird that Gu Huaixiu doesn't touch her head.

His mother's slender palm fell on his shoulder, obviously without much force, even just resting it lightly, he felt that it was pressing, very heavy, very heavy.

But his footsteps stabilized in an instant.

Zhang Ruoai felt that standing here, in front of her mother, she was very upright and working hard.

At that moment, he looked at Gu Huaixiu with a pair of clear and ignorant eyes.

Then, she burst into tears again.

Brother Ai laughed at her: It is said in the book that women are made of water, and my mother is also made of water.

Gu Huaishu really wanted to tell him at the time that men are made of water, and they have more water on their bodies than women.

But it's boring to think about it, so I just stopped talking.

In a blink of an eye, Zhang Ruoai became enlightened, and the unprecedented lineup of enlightenment spread throughout the capital for a while.

Gu Huaishu would rather not have so many expectations and constraints. For a child, he has too many burdens.

His three gentlemen are champions, and those who come to see him are all Hanlin and Jinshi, and even the great Confucian Li Guangdi...

What Zhang Ruoai is carrying now is actually not as easy as what Zhang Tingyu was carrying back then.

Zhang Tingyu may not have the idea of ​​putting pressure on the child, but just hopes that he will be better.

However, Zhang Tingyu couldn't control the scene of Kaimeng's day, and he couldn't keep all the guests from coming in.

Thinking about it, Gu Huaishu felt that her son grew up with "ugly", "fat" and "stupid" things that she despised since he was a child, and his ability to bear it was much better than ordinary children.

To a child, enlightenment means breaking away from ignorance, knowing all kinds of great principles, starting to "cultivate oneself, governing the family, governing the country and the world", and finally "going beyond the ordinary to become holy".

The latter is the way of a sage, and ordinary people just pursue to "govern the country and bring peace to the world".

Gu Huaishu looked at the fallen flowers in front of the court and counted the days with his fingers.

As soon as Ai Kaimeng is over, the third and fourth masters of the mansion are about to leave.

Zhang Tinglu has been wandering for many years, and she misses her old father very much, and her parents can't be left alone to take care of her, so she left simply. Qiao Miaoniang was even more consistent with Zhang Tinglu, and after she said she was going to leave, she made preparations.As for Zhang Tingyu, he was similar to Zhang Tinglu. One had to take a scientific examination, and the other went home to take care of his parents, so Zhang Tingyu was fine here.

The only one with a displeased face was Mrs. Peng, who smashed a big vase in the room unhappily.

After hearing this, Gu Huaishu just asked someone to tell her that the smashed vase would be charged to their fourth room's account, and she would remember to find something to put on it later.

Peng Shi was trembling with anger, standing in his room and talking in a dark voice, Zhang Tingyuan had just come back from talking with his second brother outside, when he heard Peng Shi's words.

As soon as he heard it, he knew who he was targeting. Zhang Tingyu was a little impatient: "You haven't finished yet? If you don't want to leave, just stay here by yourself!"

Zhang Tingyu was eager to go back to Tongcheng to see his parents. Peng Shi was reluctant to part with her brother, and felt that Zhang Tingyu had no fame and no future.

This mansion still belonged to his second brother, and the family lived here, and any servants they ordered around would make irresponsible remarks.

He, Zhang Tingxuan, didn't care. Every time he called for someone, everyone would run swiftly. When he got to her, Peng Bingying, everyone was as if their feet were glued to the ground. It didn't mean that the job couldn't be done, but it meant that the second lady Certainly not allowed.

Everything has to be framed, where can I feel at home?

Mrs. Peng never expected that this would be the case with being a married woman. At the beginning, she tried her best to marry into Zhang's family because she listened to her elder brother Peng Weixin's words.

Now compare the three brothers of the Zhang family, the second master is the most capable, and the third master who just came back not long ago looks even more affectionate and dedicated.

If I knew that when Zhang Tinglu came back, my brother would let me choose. Even if I became Zhang Tinglu's continuation, it would be better than now. Now that all the good things have fallen on a blind man, Peng Bingying would not be too angry.

Seeing that Zhang Tingyu didn't speak up for herself now, she was furious: "What do you mean by that? I stay here? Why don't I dare to stay here! The capital is so nice, in Shuntian What happened to the local exam? You think I really believe what medicine you say to go home to visit your parents? It’s because your second elder brother and second sister-in-law are annoyed by seeing us and want to drive us back!"

"What did you say about the second brother and the second sister-in-law?"

Zhang Tingxuan looked at Peng Shi cautiously a while ago, since Peng Weixin became a Jinshi and entered the Imperial Academy, her whole person has changed.

Peng Shi was eager to get the power of the housekeeper, at least to help manage the affairs of the mansion, it was better than being angry with a maid, and it would be even more embarrassing if she accidentally ordered the maid of the second room.But now he doesn't take care of anything in the mansion, and it's not her turn to do any errands. Gu Huaishou also said that she takes care of things in the mansion, and there are maids and mother-in-law who are in charge, let her take care of it first. , let her take care of things when it's time to let her take care of it.

How does this look like you want to delegate power to yourself?

Peng was puzzled: "What if I just said that? I broke a vase in the house, and she asked me to replace it. What is she? What happened to a vase I broke?"

"Alright, what are you doing breaking the vase?"

Zhang Tingyu has always known the style of the second sister-in-law, so vigorous and resolute, who in Zhang's mansion has never seen it before?It's just that in the past few years, I have cultivated my body and cultivated my character, and my temper has become a lot calmer.

But even so, the second sister-in-law was not provoked by Mrs. Peng.

Zhang Tingyu has only now come to realize that he set up a fairy dance for himself to dance.Although it is not a fairy dance, how is it different from a fairy dance?

He was not lecherous, but he was also tricked.

Marrying Mrs. Peng may be Zhang Tingyu's biggest mistake since he believed in Xinrui when he was young.

But now there is no room for redemption.

Seeing that Mrs. Peng remained silent, Zhang Tingyuan asked again: "I ask you, why did you drop the vase?"

Peng slammed the tea bowl, and said: "I just can't understand her, I just don't want to leave the capital city and meet Tongcheng, what's wrong? I'll throw a vase and hinder her?"

Zhang Tingyu's complexion finally gradually changed.

He stared at Peng's face, and couldn't believe that this was the girl who had shown shyness in front of him back then.

Thinking about it, women are different before and after marriage.

"You didn't hinder her, you hindered me."

"... Zhang Tingyuan, you!"

Peng Shi didn't expect that Zhang Tingyu would say such a thing!

What do you mean by hindering him?

"Are you ready for this day? What on earth does this mean?! How can you care about outsiders instead of your own wife?" The third master was not clear with her second wife back then, could it be that you were also unclear with her?!"

"Snapped!"

Zhang Tingyu finally couldn't hold back his shot.

He slapped Peng's face.

Zhang Tingyu never beat women, especially his wives and concubines, but today he couldn't help but strike.

Staring at Peng Shi coldly, Zhang Tingyu had only one sentence: "If you don't want to go back, you can go back to your mother's house. As for the second sister-in-law, you are not qualified to talk behind your back."

After finishing speaking, he flicked his sleeves and went out directly, not going back to the house.

Peng Shi knew better than anyone why she was able to marry in. Zhang Tingyu had asked about that day cryptically, but she had been perfunctory.

Her brother said that marrying into the Zhang family means enjoying happiness, prosperity and wealth, and many things are at your fingertips.

But Mrs. Peng didn't feel any of it now. All the family members obeyed her orders, and all the family members were capable people. She only felt that this family was disgusting.No matter what, she was already married to Zhang Tingyu, and she married a chicken as a chicken and a dog as a dog. Originally, she planned to live in peace and stability, but Gu Huaishu refused to give what she wanted; what she wanted, Zhang Tingyu couldn't give it either.

Peng Shi was slapped by her man, and now she sat down dejectedly, buried her head and began to cry.

She was very wronged.

But after crying, when she remembered what Zhang Tingzhen said, Peng also got angry, "If you dare to go back to Tongcheng, I will dare to go back to my mother's house, Cui'er, pack up your things, let's go back!"

The maids in the room were already petrified by today's sudden change.

"Ma'am, why did you suddenly say you were leaving?"

"Ma'am, it's absolutely impossible..."

"Quickly ask someone to notify the second lady!"

The maids are all in a hurry, how can anyone go back to their mother's house after getting married after having a conflict with their husband?
This……

This……

Ugh.

How can this be done!

Tweety is Peng's maid, she also knows a little about what happened back then, but she always pretends not to know.

Peng Weixin sent his younger sister, Peng Bingying, to the Zhang family in the first place for his own future, but now that his younger sister has fallen out with the Zhang family, how can he have a good face?

Ma'am, this is too incomprehensible. If you are married, you must look like a married woman.

What's more, she usually said that the maids don't listen to this and that, and they listen to what the fourth master says, but the fourth lady doesn't listen to what she says, so she clearly doesn't regard her as the Zhang family.

But whether you listen to the order or not depends on what the fourth master ordered, and what the private fourth wife ordered!

Things that cannot be done are embarrassing people, and things that are not in compliance with the rules are also embarrassing people.

Everything the Fourth Madam said was embarrassing, so how could people listen to her?
"Ma'am, you can't go back..."

"Tui'er, you don't even listen to me anymore? You don't clean up, do you? Let's just stay in the Zhang family with you!"

Peng sternly scolded Tweety, and then Tweety came up to pack her things with tears in her eyes.

The news quickly spread to Gu Huaixiu, Gu Huaixiu only said that the Peng family could make troubles, if she returned to the Peng family, those who didn't know would think that the Zhang family had done something to her.

"Someone stop her..."

Just halfway through speaking, Gu Huaishu stopped.

She suddenly remembered Zhang Tingyu's attitude when the servant girl was talking just now.

Gu Huaixiu frowned, and looked at Duofu: "When the fourth master quarreled with her, what did you say? Do you know how the maids pass it on?"

Duofu said in a low voice: "Fourth Master said, Fourth Madam didn't bother you, but him. He also said that if she doesn't want to go back to Tongcheng, she can go back to her mother's house."

Zhang Tingyu's attitude is too strange.

When he said he wanted to marry Mrs. Peng, it was not like this now.

When the daughter-in-law came in, the two families were still happy, thinking that Peng's coming in should be the same as Zhang Tingyu's case, after all, both parties are willing, and it doesn't look like they didn't have a relationship foundation before.But looking back now, the life of the two of them is getting more and more troublesome.

"This is really strange..."

Gu Huaixiu frowned.

She put down the teacup and only walked outside.

Qing Dai only felt that it was not good to go to the fourth room right now, "Madam, if you go to the fourth room right now, wouldn't you be running into her anger?"

"Who said I'm going to find Mrs. Peng?"

Gu Huaishu didn't think it would be effective to find Peng now, she was going to find Zhang Tingyuan.

"Find fourth master for me, and see where fourth master is."
