Chapter 1155 Redemption 6(1/2)
Zhang Huahan, who felt maternal love for the first time, walked out of Wutong Courtyard excitedly. Until she returned to her own yard, her mind was still thinking about her and Yan Yile getting along.
"Aunt Anran, my mother just said that tomorrow she will personally teach me how to burn incense and arrange flowers. Did I hear you correctly?"
Looking at the excited Zhang Huahan, An Ran felt a little sad, and said with a smile: "You heard me right, girl, burning incense and arranging flowers are all necessary homework for every lady. I remember back then, the master and the princess learned many of them together, and they were among the sisters.
They are all top-notch."
Zhang Huahan looked blank: "Princess?"
What princess?
Who is the princess?
Is it possible that there is a princess among the mother’s sisters?!
An Ran thought for a while and decided to explain the Yan family's situation to Zhang Huahan in detail, so as not to go to the provincial capital in July and cause trouble because he didn't understand the situation...
"The Yan family has three rooms in total, and the master comes from the second room of the Yan family."
"Among the three houses of the Yan family, the most prominent one is the eldest house of the Yan family, for no other reason than that the famous Princess Weiyuan came from the eldest house of the Yan family."
Zhang Huahan was stunned.
Princess Weiyuan......
Even though she rarely went out, she still heard about Princess Weiyuan who promoted high-yielding grain varieties to all parts of Daxia.
"Princess Weiyuan turned out to be me..."
An Ran sighed and nodded: "Yes, Princess Weiyuan is your aunt. Not only do you have an uncle who is a prince, but you also have an eldest cousin who is a prince, a second cousin who is a prince, and a princess.
Cousin."
Zhang Huahan no longer knows what expression to make. She is the daughter of a small businessman, and suddenly she has so many relatives of the emperor and the country.
She has to slow down!
An Ran continued: "The Yan family not only gave birth to a princess, but also a minister of household affairs and a chief of the navy. Your great-grandfather was also a second-rank official before he became an official."
"The third cousin of the Yan family is weaker, but now the commander of the Jinling Guard is your third cousin. Your fifth and sixth cousins started later, but now they all hold important positions in the local area."
"Among the three bedrooms, the second bedroom is the weakest. Whether it is the big or the third bedroom, there are brothers to help. There is only the second bedroom, and your uncle is the only one who supports it."
"But fortunately, my uncle is now in his prime. He is the chief envoy of a province, and he is also the official of the imperial court."
Listening to this, Zhang Huahan couldn't calm down for a long time. Although she had long known that the Yan family's family background was higher than that of the Zhang family, she never expected that it would be so much higher!
So, how did the mother marry the father?
Zhang Huahan didn't dare to think about it deeply, so he could only force himself to ignore this problem.
An Ran looked at Zhang Huahan: "To put it bluntly, my servant, the Zhang family is today only because of the Yan family, so girl, you can straighten your back in the Zhang family."
The Yan family's situation was so unexpected that Zhang Huahan's mood was a little ups and downs, but he just nodded casually.
No wonder...
The Yan family is so prominent, it’s no wonder that my grandmother can only avoid her mother’s sharp edges and choose to give in and compromise;
No wonder no matter how dissatisfied others are, Zhang Jiaming has to be the first to choose the good things.
The confusion that once lingered in my heart was all answered today.
An Ran didn't say anything more and just stood aside quietly, waiting for Zhang Huahan to digest.
......
After a night of digestion, when Zhang Huahan came to Wutong Courtyard again, nothing could be seen on his face. Just looking at his mother who taught him how to burn incense and arrange flowers, Zhang Huahan couldn't help but feel sour in his heart.
The more prominent the Yan family is, the more pitiful she feels for her mother.
Father... he had his first wife, several concubines, his legitimate son, his legitimate daughter, and his concubine and concubine.
When she thought of this, she couldn't help but feel sad and worthless for her mother.
She used to think that her mother's behavior of ignoring the Zhang family and her father was too extreme, but at this moment, she no longer has such thoughts.
From this day on, Zhang Huahan went to Wutong Courtyard more and more frequently.
When eating, he personally prepares the dishes, when drinking tea, he personally makes tea... Whatever he can do personally, Zhang Huahan tries his best to do it himself.
My mother was too miserable and lonely. She was the only relative left in the entire Zhang family. As for the rest of the Zhang family, they only missed her because the Yan family stood behind her.
Yan Yile naturally felt Zhang Huahan's attentiveness. She was a little uncomfortable at first, but she gradually got used to it.
The servants of Wutong Court keenly discovered that the eldest lady was angry less often, and she no longer kept a straight face every day, but occasionally she would show a soft expression.
As time passed by little by little, Zhang Huahan learned the etiquette and rules better and better, and his relationship with Yan Yile became more and more harmonious. The two of them were no longer as uncomfortable getting along with each other as they were at the beginning.
Under An Ran's training, the servants of Champs Elysées have become more disciplined. Others in the Zhang family who want to find out information about Zhang Huahan can't find a place to start.
Everyone in the Zhang family watched this change silently.
Time flew by in June, and only after Yan Yile sent people out to buy things several times did the Zhang family know that Zhang Huahan was about to go to the provincial capital.
At this time, everyone in the Zhang family couldn't sit still.
I went to the provincial capital to pay my respects to Ambassador Yan Bu. Let’s not talk about other things. Just saying it out is enough to make people look high on me, not to mention, maybe I can make friends with high-ranking officials and dignitaries.
Especially the second and third girls who are discussing the marriage are the most anxious. As long as they can go to the Prime Minister's Office, even if it is just a wasted trip, it will be beneficial to the marriage proposal.
Naturally, Miss Zhang wants to go. She is about to marry into the county magistrate's family. If her husband's family knows that she has contacts with the governor's envoy's office, they will definitely be looked down upon when they enter.
On the sixth day of June, Zhang Huahan came to greet Mrs. Zhang as usual. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Mrs. Zhang and others looking at her with burning eyes.
Today's Zhang Huahan really doesn't look like a girl from the Zhang family. Every gesture and gesture is like everyone else's, and her whole body is full of elegance.
Miss Zhang smiled and was the first to break the silence: "Fifth sister, your dress does not look like it is made of ordinary materials. Where did you buy it? I will make one tomorrow too?"
Zhang Huahan: "...This material was not bought from outside, it was given by my mother."
Miss Zhang Er stared at the jade jewelry on Zhang Huahan's head and asked instantly: "Then the jewelry on your head was also a gift from your aunt?"
Zhang Huahan nodded.
Miss Zhang Er curled her lips sourly: "Auntie is very doting on the fifth sister. What you are wearing is something we have never seen before."
The other girls had similar expressions. The Zhang family has money, but there are many things that even money cannot buy.
Zhang Huahan ignored Miss Zhang Er and stood up to say goodbye to Mrs. Zhang. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zhang Er spoke at this time.
"Hua Han, we heard that you are going to the provincial capital soon?"
Zhang Huahan glanced at her, then at Mrs. Zhang, and nodded: "Yes, my mother asked me to go and celebrate my uncle's birthday."
Hearing this, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became silent.
Mrs. Zhang quickly came to her senses and said with a smile: "You kid, why didn't you tell us about such a big event in advance? Since it is my uncle's birthday, our family should express it."
Zhang Huahan pondered for a moment: "Grandma, this is the first time Hua Han has arranged for her uncle's house. Mother means to keep everything simple."
Mrs. Zhang looked blank for a moment, then smiled and said: "Your mother is still thoughtful, but no matter how simple it is, she can't let you, a little girl, go out alone, right?"
Mrs. Zhang Er immediately answered: "That's right, we are not worried about you going out as a little girl. In this way, if your second sister and the others go with you, you will have someone to keep you company on the way."
Zhang Huahan did not comment, but said: "You have to ask your mother about this."
Mrs. Zhang Er wanted to say something else, but Mrs. Zhang stopped her.
Mrs. Zhang looked at Zhang Huahan kindly: "It's time to ask your mother what she wants. However, it's not appropriate for a girl like you to go home on the road. You have to talk to your mother about this."
Zhang Huahan said ‘hmm’, then got up and left.
......
After arriving at Wutongyuan, Zhang Huahan told Yan Yile that the Zhang family wanted to go to the provincial capital with them.
Yan Yile was not surprised. Businessmen pursue profits and will dig in wherever there is benefit: "What do you think about this?"
Zhang Huahan looked at her face carefully and considered: "Mom, that's what I think. It's really inconvenient for me to go out alone. Since I have to be accompanied by someone, I might as well call my eldest brother and eldest sister."
Yan Yile said nothing, waiting for Zhang Huahan to continue.
Zhang Huahan continued: "The eldest brother, eldest sister, and I, after all, are from the same father, so we are closer to each other than the people in the second and third bedrooms, and the interests between us are also stronger."
Hearing this, Yan Yile had a slight reaction.
She was instinctively disgusted with the Zhang family, and it was impossible for her to support them.
If Hua Han wanted to tell her that we were all a family, she would definitely reject it directly, but when she heard her mention the word profit, she was willing to continue listening.
"My daughter knows that her maternal grandfather's family is very prominent, but after all, she belongs to the Zhang family. In the future...if she gets married and suffers injustice from her husband's family, she may be able to rely on her maternal grandfather's family, but she will rely more on her family.
My natal family."
"My daughter thinks that the relationship between my grandfather's family should be used wisely. It is better not to cause trouble as much as possible. After all, love cannot withstand wear and tear."
"Furthermore, the relationship between my daughter and the Zhang family is constantly breaking up. As long as it's not too much and it doesn't break the relationship, it's better to try not to break the relationship."
Hearing this, Yan Yile was a little stunned and looked at her childish-looking daughter blankly.
Zhang Huahan didn't notice and continued: "Let me tell my mother, my grandmother and the others have treated me just like that over the years. There is no friendship at all. In this case, my daughter will only discuss the gains and losses with them."<
