Chapter 238(1/2)
After sending Zhang Xun back to the village, Zhou Daozi left a piece of medicine so that he could pat his butt and run away.
When Zhang Xun looked at the dilapidated home in front of him, he didn't dare to recognize it.
I remember that at that time, he was very ambitious and wanted to build the best house in Zhangjia Village to honor his ancestors and make all the clansmen look at their house with admiration. Unexpectedly, less than two years after leaving, things and people had changed, and they would never return to their former glory...
Zhang Dalang took Gong and his two children to live in three rooms in the west wing and moved out from home.
However, with broken bones and connected tendons, they couldn't take it seriously and ignore whatever happened to Zhang Zhengxiang and Zhang Silang.
An old bachelor and a young bachelor, without Liu's control, spend their days looking for flowers and flowers. In just a few months, not only their money bags are emptied by drinking and sex, but their bodies are also emptied.
When Zhang Xun went to his home, Zhang Silang had not yet settled down. Zhang Zhengxiang drank too much last night and was sleeping in the house with a secret prostitute in his arms. Zhang Xun kicked the door open. The two-foot-tall monk was confused and still
Thinking that Dalang was here, he scolded him...
Zhang Dalang came back carrying firewood and saw his third brother standing at the door of his house. He felt sad and almost shed tears.
"Sanlang, is it Sanlang who is back?"
Zhang Tour head, excitedly called "big brother", and looked at the dilapidated yard, "What's going on? What happened to our family?"
Zhang Dalang looked at his father who was coming out of his clothes and lowered his head. He didn't know where to start for a while.
"At first, the imperial court sent someone to pay the money and said that you, Sanlang, had been martyred for our country... We held a funeral for you. Later, later, the siblings separated and took their three children to live alone... Not long after, my mother
Just went."
After Zhang Dalang finished describing all the disasters in a few sentences, he looked at his father again and couldn't continue.
Zhang Zhengxiang yawned, but felt energetic.
"It's true that God will not kill me, hahahaha, my third son is back... Hurry, come and sit in the room. If you have anything to say, we can sit down and talk."
These days, Zhang Dalang didn't want Mrs. Gong to be too tired, and he couldn't bear for her and her children to see the ridiculous things his father and brother did, so he asked them to go in and out through the side door, so no one would sweep the main room anymore.
Zhang Xun pushed the door open and took a look, and was stunned.
Gathering dust, dust, messy arrangements and overturned tables and chairs, in dilapidated state...
"Here, sit here, sit here." Zhang Zhengxiang wiped the stool with his sleeve, asked his son to sit down, and asked with a bright smile:
"When you come back this time, are you going to be rewarded for your meritorious service again? How much money did the court reward you?"
Zhang Xun pursed his lips tightly and looked at his father with an embarrassed expression.
They didn't ask him if he was working hard outside, or how he escaped from death, but only if he got any money.
Zhang Xun smiled bitterly and said, "Do you know why I was so kind to Mrs. Liu in the first place?"
Zhang Zhengxiang was stunned, "Why?"
Zhang Xun looked at him seriously, "I have never liked Mrs. Liu as my stepmother. I also know that he is narrow-minded and petty. He treats Si Lang better than me and my eldest brother, and he is even more difficult and vicious to my wife... But I tolerate it.
She is in this family because she can control you. Otherwise, this family will fail you sooner or later..."
A house must have a woman who can manage it.
Otherwise, it won’t feel like a home.
Zhang Xun's words were heartbroken, and Zhang Zhengxiang's face turned red when he heard it. He immediately darkened his face and scolded his son.
"Look what you said? Was it me who killed your mother? Was it me who brought this family to ruin? It's not your fault that your good wife was so angry that she killed your mother and separated us.
The property of the family..."
"Dad!" Zhang Dalang couldn't listen anymore. He frowned and glanced at Zhang Xun, "My sister-in-law didn't take anything with her when they separated."
"Bah, what do you know?" Zhang Zhengxiang's cloudy eyes seemed to have sharp knives.
"She didn't take anything away on the surface, but she took away the child and the helper of the Guangling County Prince... Look at her, she is now enjoying life and drinking in Bianjing City, and she behaves like a dog. Damn it.
Who is it? Isn’t it just the Prince of Guangling County?”
Speaking of Xinyi, Zhang Zhengxiang was filled with jealousy.
"This bitch, a shameless thing, kidnapped the children and took away the belongings, that's all. During the period of mourning, she hooked up with others. Now she was the butcher king, now Lord Cao, now the prince of Guangling County, who is not hers?
mistress……"
"father!"
Zhang Xun and Zhang Dalang said in unison.
"Dad, please stop talking nonsense." Zhang Dalang is an honest man, even though it has been widely spread outside that Xin Yi first got along with Mr. Cao, and then Mr. Cao wanted to get married, and she got in love with the Prince of Guangling County...
But Zhang Dalang didn't believe it.
"The county prince takes care of the children for Saburo's sake. If he goes there too often, he will inevitably be criticized by those people. If others believe it, will you believe it too?"
Zhang Zhengxiang bulged his eyes and said angrily, "Why don't I believe it? If there are no heads and tails between the two of them, why would Prince Guangling take care of her like a treasure..."
"Dad!" It was Zhang Xun who stopped Zhang Zhengxiang from talking this time.
He looked at his father with a cold face, ignoring the moment of doubt that flashed through his heart when he heard the words "They have a beginning and an end." After thinking about it seriously, he shook his head.
"Even if I don't believe her, I still have to believe the Prince of Guangling. Don't mention this kind of thing again in the future. It won't damage the brotherhood between me and the Prince..."
"Brother, what kind of brother? How many times has he visited your father since you've been gone for so long? How much money has he given to your father? Your father and I are almost out of food. Do you think he takes care of it?"
"Dad! How can you tell lies with your eyes open? The county king has sent people to send you money every month, but you and Shiro have ruined you..."
"Shut up! It's not that you don't have the ability! If you want to be like Sanlang, who can give your father money, will our family become such a shabby state? Not only do you not want to make progress, but you listen to your wife's instigation and separate the family.
Go out and live alone...you unfilial son, it's not your turn to speak here!"
"well!"
Zhang Dalang sighed and winked at Zhang Xun.
"Sanlang, please sit with your father for a while. I'll carry the firewood back first. I'll ask your sister-in-law to cook some more dishes and eat them in my room later."
Zhang Xun looked at the honest and honest figure of his eldest brother and nodded silently.
Being able to force an honest person into a family separation, you can imagine how bad it would be...
"Yo! Who is this back?"
A seductive voice sounded in the room. Zhang Xun looked up and saw a well-dressed middle-aged woman walking out with her waist twisted.
Zhang Xun frowned severely when he realized what she was doing.
Zhang Zhengxiang said: "San'er, she is..."
Zhang Xun interrupted him, "Tell her to get out!"
When the woman heard this, her expression immediately changed. She flicked her handkerchief, stomped up to Zhang Zhengxiang and spread her hands.
"Give me the money."
Zhang Zhengxiang said awkwardly: "Didn't I just give it to you that day?"
"That day is that day, and today is today. If I don't give you money, will I let you sleep in vain?"
This woman has become more aggressive than the Liu family before.
Zhang Zhengxiang was so noisy that his brain ached, but when he dug into his pocket, he didn't take out a single coin.
He looked at his son for help...
It's a pity that Zhang Xun's pocket is cleaner than his face.
Zhangjiacun was very lively on this day.
Zhang Sanlang, who had been dead for several months, came back alive. The prostitute Zhang Zhengxiang found yelled at the gate of Zhang's courtyard that the old turtle was sleeping with women in vain without giving him any money, which attracted people from the village to watch. In the end, it was Zhang Dalang who helped his father pay for the prostitution, and he was kind to her.
He persuaded the woman to leave.
Such a shameful thing is what makes people talk about it the most.
For a time, the joke spread throughout Zhangjiacun.
Before the Dragon Boat Festival had passed, Liang Liang and Xiang Ling took the villagers' ox cart to the city and told Xin Yi these things.
The two girls were worried, "Sister, the third brother is back, what's going to happen?"
Xin Yi was sewing the sachet and smiled calmly when he heard this.
"What is the best thing to do?"
Xiang Ling was more impatient than his husband, and when he saw this, he shouted, "You and the prince? What should you do with the prince?"
Xin Yi glanced at her and said, "Do you think I am someone who can be manipulated by others?"
Xiang Ling shook his head.
The corners of Xin Yi's lips were slightly raised, and his eyes were as clear as a lake.
"Then don't worry. I will find a way."
The two girls breathed a sigh of relief.
They have been with Xin Yi for a long time and have become accustomed to having her as their main support. As long as Xin Yi says there is a way, they will believe it and they will no longer be afraid.
"I hope my sister and the prince will be together..."
