Chapter 87

Father Meng saw his precious daughter's smile was colder than when she persuaded him to pretend to pass out, his eyes were full of threats and coercion, he couldn't help but get angry, and cursed, "Damn girl! I just know how to anger your father!"

Zhang Bing reprimanded lightly, "Youran, don't be rude to your father-in-law."

Father Meng scolded his daughter, then turned around and scolded his son-in-law again, "We father and daughter are talking, what's the matter with you? Get out!"

Zhang He replied respectfully, "Yes!" Before leaving the house, he whispered to his wife, "Don't make your father-in-law angry."

Mimi nodded with a leisurely smile, that's my father, don't I know that my heart hurts?
Seeing that his precious daughter was very kind to the brat, Father Meng became even angrier, and picked up the azure thin round Ruyao round brush on the table to wash it, as if about to fall.

"It's very expensive, Dad!" Leisurely ran over and snatched the brush washer distressedly, "This is Ru Kiln, you can't drop it, you can drop a cheap one." Carefully put the brush washer away, and look around for a cheap one so you can drop it objects.

Ru kiln is the crown of porcelain in Song Dynasty. The glaze contains agate, the color is green and lustrous, and the glaze is fat and shiny. Porcelain is already very rare.Alas, it has been passed down to the distant 20st century, and there are only 21 and a half Ru kilns left, which are very precious.

Such a treasure made the old man throw it away in anger?What a waste of money.No, no, leisurely found an ordinary official white porcelain teacup, it's cheap, don't feel bad!He handed it to Dad attentively, with a smile on his face, "Dad, you throw this!"

Father Meng saw his daughter busy looking for cheap things to throw for him, and his heart was softened. He also saw her face upturned to please her, and she couldn't help laughing, but she didn't smile, she was serious. Face reprimanded, "One thread at a time, think of it as hard-won. How can there be such a fair and sloppy thing?"

Smiling leisurely and slyly, "Daddy taught me that." You are the one who wants to throw away the pen, okay?Now, with a stern face, he taught people not to cherish things.

"What did daddy teach you? Then you contradicted daddy just now?!" Meng Lai snorted angrily.Damn girl, who are you lying to?

"It's fine for Dad to reprimand him in front of outsiders, how can I not feel bad if I reprimand him in private?" Youran said confidently.

Everyone knows that Zhang Bing is the grandson of Lord Jiye, and everyone knows that Zhang is not willing to recognize his ancestors. It is inevitable that some people will slander him because of this, saying that he is rebellious, that he has forgotten his ancestors, and the emperor will inevitably suspect that he is too ambitious. Not reconciled to being controlled by others; Meng Lai, a civil servant, has little power. He repeatedly reprimanded Zhang Bing until he was sweating profusely. Zong's indifferent man, but so afraid of his father-in-law?
The current situation is that Duke Wei's government is willing to admit Zhang Bing, but the public opinion is not good for Zhang: the real situation in the Celestial Dynasty, no matter how prosperous a man is, no matter how promising he is, it is always a pity that he cannot be recognized by his family.If the family wants to recognize you back, but you don't want to, it will be interesting.What?Your father's family wants to recognize you, but you don't want to?Count the classics and forget the ancestors!Unworthy descendants!Everyone's spittle can drown you.

Cheng Meng's thought of "I gave birth to you, you have to listen to my orders" is not unique to her alone. How many people in the heavenly dynasty think this way, and they all regard the child as their own private property.

"There is no such thing as a parent", "Without him, how could there be you?" These are the words people often use to advise disaffected children.It is also what many people think.

Therefore, Zhang refused to admit back to Duke Wei's mansion. According to the tradition of the Celestial Dynasty, it was wrong and unrighteous.

At this time, rumors were released, saying what kind of mistreatment Zhang Bing had received in Wei Guogong's mansion?The timing was simply not right.

Meng Lai had been in the officialdom for a long time, so he was naturally tactful. A gentle man like him reprimanded the tall and mighty Zhang Bing. The scene was very joyful and spread quickly.When Zhang Bing's humble and respectful image is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, he can make a difference.

Public opinion is not in the hands of some people, anyone can use public opinion.Of course, there are skills in using public opinion.

Zhang Xingjun's fighting skills are recognized by the world, and his prestige in the army is extremely high. This prestige is a double-edged sword: the emperor would hope that there is such a person to rule the army for him, but he is afraid that this person is too perfect.

"It's good to have some weaknesses, and it's best to be laughed at by others. Fearing your father-in-law like a tiger is actually not a bad weakness. It's amusing and reassuring." Youran's words were good. When he was sweating profusely from being scolded by his father-in-law one night, he immediately burst out laughing.

"Ruan Dayou is afraid of his wife like a tiger, and you are afraid of your father-in-law like a tiger, very good, very good." Mimi smiled leisurely and was very satisfied.

Ruan Dayou is not a famous general in the world, but he is afraid of his wife to death. It is rumored that Mrs. Ruan raised her eyebrows, and Ruan Dayou would be so frightened that she would kneel down and beg for mercy.

Meng Zhengxian, a hot-blooded young man, was also furious about this, and he felt wronged for the hero in his heart.

"Hey, our General Ruan is invincible in the battlefield, and the Northwest General is famous, but he is afraid of his wife!" sighed.

"Oh, our Commander-in-Chief Zhang made the Tatars frightened by the sword immediately, what a hero! He just missed his father-in-law and a mouse like a cat." He was heartbroken.

now it's right.What harm is there in such a reputation?When he was in the army, he spoke orders and deeds, and he was majestic; when he was in front of the emperor, and in the court hall, he was only laughed at, but he was very relieved.

"You don't understand. It's for his own good that Dad reprimands people in front of others; it's also for his own good when he reprimands behind people's back." Father Meng said calmly, "What are you doing for two months' leave? Look at Chaozhong. Who wants to take two months leave to get married in Beijing?"

Only those who have a long way to go back to their hometown to get married will take a long vacation. If you get married in Beijing, take two months off. Didn’t you tell everyone that you have leisure time?Not diligent in royal affairs?
Leisurely pouted, can people compare with each other?Who in the court went to the battlefield at the age of nine?Although Zhang Bing is married for the first time, he has been working for nearly 20 years, okay? In the 21st century, there should be a late marriage holiday.

"When he asked the emperor to ask for leave, dad guess how long he said first?" leisurely.

Father Meng looked contemptuous and ignored it.Leisurely asked and answered, "Two years, two years."

Father Meng was surprised at first, then angry, and looked out of the study, wishing to bring Zhang Bing in and teach him a lesson.How dare you take two years off as a relative? !

"I'm sick and injured, I need to rest and recuperate; I don't marry a wife until I'm almost thirty; the world is stable, I just want to marry a wife and have children, and spend the day in peace." Leisurely counted the pictures one by one and looked for what the emperor said when he asked for leave, "Father, listen to me. , is he right?"

Father Meng hummed twice, but said nothing.

Leisurely accepts it when she sees it, and Gu Zuo said to him, "Daddy, is Xiaoyu moving tomorrow?" My own mother is too scheming, so I don't worry if I dare to send it out.

Father Meng said angrily, "Everyone is in such a hurry to move away?" Married his beloved daughter, moved out with a young son, and then took away his beloved woman, this day is unbearable!
"It's so close, you can go and have a look at whatever you want, and it's justified." Leisurely comforted.Really, whether it's a father who visits his own son, or an uncle who visits his nephew, it's a fair thing.

In fact, even if Huang Xin stayed in the Meng Mansion, Father Meng would never see her every day.If Father Meng dared to spend the night at Huang Xin's place, the Zhong family would not know what to do, Huang Xin had no resistance at all.

"Are you happy to be married and leave father?" Meng Lai asked slowly.

"Father, when the son grows up, it belongs to the daughter-in-law, and when the daughter grows up," leisurely deliberating on his words, "it belongs to someone else. There is nothing to do about it."

Father Meng let out a heavy "hum" and lay down on the recliner to rest his mind, ignoring Youran.

Leisurely moved a small stool and sat next to Dad, Xu Xu said, "Daddy, you have two months off, how about I accompany you to the western suburbs for a two-day walk?" He added playfully, "You can take her with you. !"

Father Meng ignored her at first, but when he heard this sentence, he opened his eyes and said hesitantly, "Is it possible?" Since he was released back to Beijing, he never had a happy time playing with Huang Xin and You Ran.

"Of course it's possible," leisurely smiled, "Xiaoyu will move tomorrow, and she will move too. When we go outside, the sea and the sky will be vast, and we won't be able to go where we want."

Father Meng was very moved.

Leisurely coaxed him for a long time, and after the old man laughed, he pulled the old man out, "There are still a group of people in the hall."

Seeing Meng Lai and Youran coming out chatting and laughing, Zhang He heaved a sigh of relief, stepped forward and saluted respectfully, and He and Youran accompanied Meng Lai on one left and one on the right.

Meng Lai originally ignored Zhang Bing, but when he saw Youran's threatening gaze, he cursed at You Ran, a dead girl, and called "Son-in-law" politely.

He was a little suffocated at first, but Zhang Bing's silly look of being flattered made him happy again.

Gradually, Meng Lai happily walked ahead alone, while Zhang Bing and You Ran were a few steps behind.

"Are you not angry with dad?" Zhang Bing asked in a low voice. "No! That's my own father!" Youran gave him a coquettish look.

"He is your father, and he loves you so much, he should reprimand me." Zhang Bing's appearance as a good son-in-law moved You Ran greatly.

The three of them returned to the front hall, Meng Lai and Zhang returned to the men together, and leisurely returned to the women, talking.

Mrs. Zhong and Mrs. Meng talked very happily. Seeing Youran, Mrs. Meng teased, "Mrs. Hou is back."

Youran blushed, lowered her head in embarrassment and did not speak.

"This child is still so shy after being married." Mrs. Zhong and Mrs. Meng looked at each other with a smile.

Yan Ran covered her small mouth with a light smile and said, "No, the eldest sister is still the wife of the eldest son of the Hou family, and the fifth younger sister is already the wife of the Hou family."

Zhong Shi pulled her face down.Seeing that his mother was going to get angry, he said happily, "Fifth sister is a blessed one. When Fifth sister and I were introduced to the queen mother, the queen mother said it herself."

When Mrs. Zhong heard her daughter's emphasis on the word "Queen Dowager", she suppressed her temper and said coldly, "The third girl is right, the fifth girl is more blessed than the eldest girl."

Leisurely only held on to her belt, lowered her head in a shy gesture.This posture is actually a bit tiring, but now You Ran feels even more tired talking.

Yan Ran failed to provoke her, and she was not angry, she just drank tea and ate snacks slowly.

"I'm really sorry to bother my sister-in-law over today, but I'll have to bother my sister-in-law over tomorrow." Mrs. Zhong said politely to Mrs. Meng.Tomorrow, Meng Zhengyu moved to live because he wanted his elders to be present.

Yan Ran, who was originally in a relaxed mood, pulled her face down.It's a good thing for Xiaoyu to move out to live, but why is Aunt Huang the one who followed her out to enjoy leisure?
Thinking of Aunt Ding persuading herself with tears in her eyes, "As long as you are well and Brother Yu is well, I don't ask for anything." Yan Ran was even more angry, but she and Aunt Ding had already had a fight at Meng's house a few days ago, He was blocked by Zhong's words, "Auntie Ding, go, Brother Yu will marry a wife in the future, should people treat her as a mother-in-law, or not treat her as a mother-in-law? How will Brother Yu treat himself in the future?"

When Yan Ran was angry, she saw the red gold hairpin on Youran's head that was shining with six phoenix pearls, and said with a smile, "The fifth sister is wearing the six phoenix gold hairpin? It's really beautiful."

According to the system of this dynasty, Dukes and Marquises can wear six phoenix hairpins, and the lower grades are not allowed to exceed five phoenix hairpins.

Like the Zhong family, they can only wear five phoenix gold hairpins.

As expected, Zhong's expression turned ugly.This girl Yanran is reminding herself that Youran is of a higher rank than herself!
She has never treated her badly, and even gave her a generous dowry when she got married. What is there to dissatisfy her?
Zhong's eyes on Yan Ran were a bit unkind; thinking that Youran was of a higher rank than herself, she also had a bit of unkind eyes on Youran.

So what if you get married?A aunt can always teach a lesson!

Yiran, who had been silent all this time, said with difficulty, "Not only the fifth sister is blessed, but the sixth sister is also blessed. What kind of family is that in the Princess Funing's mansion? It's heavenly and noble. According to me, the sixth sister is blessed."

Xin Ran coquettishly said, "Sister Yi!" She was already buried in Zhong's arms and refused to look up.

Zhong's joy.Isn't that right, Xinran is the best to marry!What can I be angry with?Two sons, one is more promising than the other, and the other is more filial than the other; two daughters, the eldest daughter lives comfortably, and the younger daughter will definitely be more comfortable in the future!There are even grandchildren who are lively and lovely. Isn't this a fairy-like day for me?
Zhong's face became cheerful.

Yan Ran looked at Yi Ran dissatisfied and puzzled.She married with anger, and hasn't been back many years. Not only did she come back today, but she also flattered Zhong's like this, what happened to her?
On the pretext of changing clothes, she pulled Yiran out and said, "Sister Yi, you are helping others to bully me!" When they were young, both of them used to be in front of Mrs. Meng, so they were closer than the other sisters.

Yi Ran smiled wryly, "I can't compare with you. You are married well, so you don't know my difficulties." The mother-in-law, Mrs. Yan, was willing to marry this family because she was greedy for the power of the Meng family. Seeing that she refused to flatter the Meng family, I don't know how many times I beat and scolded.This time, the order to die was given even more, if she didn't follow her, there would be no peaceful life.

Seeing Yiran's sad expression, Yanran was also taken aback. Looking at her carefully, she seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and impulsively held her hand, "Sister Yi, I'll help you!"

Yiran sighed, "Sister Yan, your favorite sister has taken it, but you can't help me, you can help me, it's leisurely, or Xinran."

Yan Ran asked what happened, she was taken aback, "That's right, I really can't help you. You can find Youran."

Yi Ran nodded silently.The two returned to the front hall together, forced a smile on their face.
