Chapter 96

Xu Yueqiu returned to her natal family, Mrs. Zhang didn't care much.From her point of view, even if Xu Yueqiu returned to her natal family, there was nothing she could do. Xu Yueqiu had already married into Zhang's family, and she was pregnant with Zhang's children. Even if she could live in her natal family for a while, she would eventually return to Zhang's family.

At this moment, what Mrs. Zhang cares more about is the son's attitude towards her today, talking to her so coldly in front of so many people, he doesn't treat her like his own mother at all.

Mrs. Zhang was already disturbed by the visit of Xu Yueshan and others. When it was time for dinner, those bad emotions could no longer be contained, and she just wanted to find a place to vent her anger.

After the two daughters-in-law waited on her for dinner, Mrs. Zhang ordered her mother-in-law to invite her husband, the old lady of the Zhang family, over while washing her mouth and hands.She thought to herself that she would cry with her husband first, and at least let her husband suppress the third son first, so as not to let him go to Xu's house again and again, it would be useless to make trouble when the time comes, and Xu Yueqiu would naturally be disheartened Back to Zhang's mansion.

It's just that not long after the maid went out, Mrs. Zhang came over.Mrs. Zhang wondered what her son had said to her husband, but she came down from the couch to meet Mrs. Zhang, waited for him to sit down on the couch, and then sat on the other side.

The old man of the Zhang family and the old lady of the Zhang family are both in their fifties, and their faces look old.There had never been any major incidents in the back house, so Mrs. Zhang almost didn't care about it and didn't bother. It can be said that it was completely arranged by Mrs. Zhang's family, so he never cared about it.

He didn't pay attention to today's matter, until he heard that the third daughter-in-law had returned to her natal family, he felt that something was not right.It was because of this that he thought of coming over to find his wife and ask what was going on.If it's not serious, then he doesn't care too much.

Old Master Zhang originally wanted to ask his son directly, but thinking that he might not be clear about the affairs of the back house, and since his son was not in the mansion, there was no other way.After he sat down, he took the tea that Mrs. Zhang handed him, and asked, "What happened today? Why did Brother Feng's daughter-in-law go back to her mother's house?"

He took a sip of tea slowly, waiting for his wife to tell him what was going on.

Mrs. Zhang looked at her husband's demeanor, but she didn't seem angry or angry at all. She thought that she probably didn't know the specific situation, so she thought about her words before answering him.

"I didn't feel well this morning, so I asked Brother Yu's daughter-in-law to ask for a doctor, and called Brother Lei's daughter-in-law and Brother Feng's daughter-in-law to come to me. I felt thirsty for a while, so I asked Brother Feng's daughter-in-law Pour me a cup of tea, and for some reason, Brother Feng's daughter-in-law feels wronged."

"Master also knows that back then I served my mother with more dedication than this one, and I didn't feel wronged. After all, serving the elders is what the younger generation should do. It's just pouring two cups of tea, beating a leg and pinching her. Putting a dish on your shoulders is the most basic thing that should be done."

Mrs. Zhang knew very well how his wife had been serving his mother with all her heart. Even when she was pregnant with brother Feng, she didn't serve her mother until the two months before she was about to give birth.Therefore, when he heard his wife's words, he really didn't think it was a big deal.

"Speaking of which, it is indeed my fault." Mrs. Zhang sighed, and continued talking with Mrs. Zhang.

"I was thinking that Brother Lei's daughter-in-law would take care of the guests, and Brother Yu's daughter-in-law called Feng's daughter-in-law to pour me a cup of tea as soon as she came back from giving orders outside. If I had known, I wouldn't have done this Yes. She is pregnant, very delicate, and then accidentally touched her, and she fell to the ground, and after that, she dared not touch her, and dared not say a word."

"I didn't see that I fell on my stomach, so I just hugged my stomach and kept shouting that it hurts. I was concerned but I didn't expect that Brother Feng would say something to me indiscriminately."

"In front of so many people, it's like this. I don't have to lose my old face." Mrs. Zhang sobbed as she spoke, took a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and said, "This handkerchief Brother Yu's daughter-in-law embroidered it for me, and it's been a long time, and I haven't seen Brother Feng's daughter-in-law make anything for me, so why have I ever said a word to her?" After saying one more sentence, I cried again.

Old Mrs. Zhang glanced at his wife, but couldn't see her sobbing, so he said, "It's not a big deal, why are you crying?" The son wiped his tears, but kept silent.

"After all, the most important thing now is to let Brother Feng's daughter-in-law come back to the mansion. You can say that we are generous if you stay for two or three days. If you stay for ten days and a half months, no one will know that something is wrong. It’s coming. No one else knows what’s going on, so maybe they’re going to talk nonsense.”

Mrs. Zhang put away her handkerchief and said hurriedly, "I just sent someone to invite the master over, and I also wanted to talk to the master about this." She glanced at the expression of the old master Zhang, and then said slowly, "Although I am afraid of being Gossip, but in the end we don’t have to worry about it as long as we have reason, but if we want to beg Brother Feng’s daughter-in-law to come back, it’s as if we’re sorry for her.”

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhang looked at his wife and asked, "What does this mean?"

Mrs. Zhang finally said, "Master, please persuade Brother Feng, don't think about running to Xu's house three or five times a day, it's really ugly. After all, this daughter-in-law has already entered the door of Zhang's house. She is a child of the Zhang family again, so she has to go back to the Zhang family sooner or later, otherwise, where else would she go?"

"Brother Feng has big ideas. If he really wants to do that, how can I persuade him. Besides, Brother Feng's daughter-in-law is pregnant, so how can he not care? Even I am thinking about my grandson." Mrs. Zhang didn't want to follow Mrs. Zhang's words.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang just continued to persuade, "Brother Feng has such a temperament, we often can't control him. If he is subdued by his wife, how good is he? After all, the wife still needs to know." It’s better to be cold and hot, and marrying a daughter-in-law is not for disciplining our son, such a trend is undesirable.”

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhang made some sense, and said, "Brother Feng will come back later, I will ask him to go to the study and talk about this matter, so you can rest assured for a while." After sitting for a while, he stood up Get up and go.

Xu Yueshan, Lin Yuan and Qi Yingyu left the Zhang family after the doctor checked Xu Yueqiu's pulse, and temporarily handed over the matter to Young Master Zhang San and Xu Yueqiu.Xu Yueqiu woke up from lunch break, ordered the maid to pick up a few important things, and then went back to Xu's house in a carriage.

Later, Master Zhang San also went to Xu's house.

Xu Yueqiu sent a message to the Lin family to his cousin Xu Yueshan, asking her to come to Xu's residence.Xu Yueshan spoke to Mrs. Lin again and left, but this time she did not bring Lin Yuan, let alone Qi Yingyu.

Xu Yueshan didn't return to the mansion until late in the evening, and when she came back to greet Mrs. Lin, Lin Yuan happened to be there.Seeing her sister-in-law coming back, Lin Yuan also cared about Xu Yueqiu's affairs, so she followed her sister-in-law out.Lin Yuan and Xu Yueshan walked together, and asked directly how things were going.

There was nothing to hide, so Xu Yueshan told Lin Yuan, "Not long after Yueqiu returned to the Xu family, Young Master Zhang San also followed. When everything was settled properly, Young Master Zhang San returned to the Zhang Mansion temporarily. When I went there, I also talked to the elders about what is going on today, nothing else."

"Master Zhang San..." Lin Yuan paused for a moment, lowered her voice and leaned into her sister-in-law's ear, and asked, "Did you and Yue Qiu agree in advance?" Lin Yuan thought it should be the case The third young master Zhang probably had a quarrel with his mother first and then coaxed him well, and then started from other places to make Mrs. Zhang no longer care about the affairs of their third house.

Xu Yueshan nodded lightly and said to Lin Yuan, "There is no other way. How can it be so easy to take care of both sides? As long as you don't overdo it, it doesn't matter. The current situation is like this, It's not easy to confront the old lady head-on, so I have to start with the things that the old lady cares about."

Lin Yuan was puzzled, and Xu Yueshan continued to explain, "Maybe the old lady doesn't care much about Yue Qiu, but she definitely cares about her son, and also about the child in Yue Qiu's belly. She not only cares about how his son treats her, but also about his future, I care about whether my son can have a good job and whether he can be reused by the court."

"Master Zhang San is the most promising one among the brothers of the Zhang family. If the other brothers can't help him, they have to rely on his wife's natal family. At first, the old lady wanted Master Zhang San to appoint one of his cousins, but Since I can't provide any help to Master Zhang San's future, I have to agree with He Yueqiu."

After her sister-in-law's explanation, Lin Yuan understood a lot and continued, "Now that Yueqiu has returned to the Xu family, the Xu family knows that the Zhang family treats her badly, so naturally they will not be willing to help Third Young Master Zhang."

Xu Yueshan laughed again, "And you and Miss Qi's family, you all have a good relationship with Yueqiu. The young master of the Qi family and the young master of the Li family are both young and promising, if the third young master Zhang can make friends with them, There are only advantages and no disadvantages for the future of Young Master Zhang San, you will get married at the beginning of next year, and those two will be your husbands... Today, the old lady despises you so much, this matter is naturally very bad for Young Master Zhang San."

When I was in Zhang's residence today, Xu Yueshan deliberately said those words in order to anger Mrs. Zhang.Although, Mrs. Zhang did deliberately neglect them, this is not the way of hospitality.In fact, Mrs. Zhang would push Xu Yueqiu with her hands, which was beyond their expectation. After all, she was pregnant.

But Mrs. Zhang did just that, and Xu Yueqiu quickly realized that she used this to intensify the matter, which also gave her a reason to go back to Xu's house alone.Things should go well in the future, so don't worry too much.

"Master Zhang San can handle the rest of the matter. It is impossible for Yue Qiu to have a bad life in the Xu family, so there is nothing to worry about." Xu Yueshan said to Lin Yuan at the end.

Lin Yuan nodded. For them, today's incident with Xu Yueqiu was temporarily over.

Young Master Zhang San returned to the Zhang Mansion from the Xu family, and was invited to the study by his father.Based on his understanding of his father and mother, Young Master Zhang San knew very well that his father probably knew something when he asked him to go there, and most of these things were learned from his mother.

He knew more or less about his mother serving his grandmother in the past, and he could always see how wronged his mother was in her heart at that time.

Now his mother wants to impose these grievances on his wife, he is not happy.There is no reason for this kind of thing at all, knowing how wronged and hard it is to make people feel so much, it is really unnecessary to do this.

What's more, the grandmother is the stepmother of the grandfather, and the father is not the grandmother's biological child, so there are also cases where the grandmother does not treat her mother well enough or refuses to treat her mother well.But he is different, he is the direct child of his father and mother, and he hopes that his mother will like his wife instead of the way she is now.

Serving tea and pouring water and other things can be done by servants themselves, and filial piety does not need to be reflected in it.He can't care about the elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law, but it's impossible for him to ignore his wife.It's fine when you're not pregnant, and you can get by with patience, but now you're pregnant, it's still the same, after all, it's not good.
