Zhang Ning explained his decision to refuse the marriage proposal very tactfully, and the result was as expected. The expressions on the uncle's and his family's faces were like the weather about to rain heavily, or like a bolt from the blue.
The little girl was immediately unlucky. In Zhang Jiujin's words, she quickly turned into a useless girl with a lot of problems including being very ignorant and having a bad brain. Perhaps the more familiar people are, the easier it is to be scolded without scruples. Just now
She was lively and happy not long ago, but now she was completely different. She lowered her head in silence, feeling aggrieved and sad.
But Zhang Ning was treated differently. His uncle's dissatisfaction with him was palpable, but he didn't say a word of scolding. Even though he was a junior, but he now had an official status, Zhang Jiujin was instinctively a little in awe, so he never said anything bad to him from beginning to end.
.
"Don't blame my little sister, this matter was my idea." Zhang Ning hurriedly explained. He was not dissatisfied with his uncle's attitude, it was just human nature, but he felt that it was wrong for them to shift all the responsibilities to the little sister.
Taste. Since you are born as a man, although you cannot take on all the things and responsibilities, and you may not be able to rely on others to wipe your ass at certain times, you must have a tolerant attitude. This is Zhang Ning's concept.
He said: "I also asked my younger sister privately, and she also said that the second young master of the Su family is not bad, but after thinking about it in many ways, I feel that the two families are too different and may not be suitable; and the eldest young master of the Su family and I are the same.
My friend, if you agree now, if there is any conflict in the future, it will ruin the friendship."
"What kind of truth is this, what is this..." Zhang Jiujin was a little excited.
Zhang Ning said: "Let's give an example. The Su family is a big family with many rules, but our little sister doesn't understand those etiquette rules. This alone cannot be compensated by three or five months. So I want to take her with me and see her more often."
Learn some etiquette when seeing the world, and worry about her marriage after a while."
The cousin was surprised and said: "Erlang wants to take his little sister to the capital with him?"
Zhang Jiujin finally couldn't help but said angrily: "Okay! Take Xiaomei Zhang away, even if we haven't raised her!" After that, he turned around and left.
In fact, Zhang Ning was also very unhappy at this time. The young man was very angry. If he couldn't bear it, he wanted to confront him. He was full of morals and wanted to refute him. Does it mean that someone else's family has a great career and doesn't care about the feelings of his own woman? But what's the truth?
It's useless. If you, a nephew, accuse your uncle, everyone will probably scold you in their hearts for reading your book into a dog's belly.
Without saying a word, he immediately knelt down in the courtyard. The brother and sister now had no parents, and the status of their uncle and father in the Ming Dynasty, which had a strong sense of clan, was no different, so there was no shame in kneeling down; and looking at the world from a different perspective, if not
With the roots of the Zhang family, Zhang Ning was not adopted by his father for food and education. Zhang Ning used to be a pariah with unknown origins. He took a Maoist imperial examination and became a Maoist official. This kneeling is to express his gratitude for him.
Zhang Jiujin immediately stopped and said hurriedly: "Erlang, what are you doing?"
The whole family focused their attention on Zhang Ning, somewhat surprised. The seniority is true, but the world is snobbish. If Zhang Ning becomes an official and becomes prominent, his status in the family will become special, and the family rules of merchants are not the same.
Yan, even Zhang Shicai seldom knelt down to his parents as an adult.
Zhang Ning said sincerely: "My father died young, and my eldest uncle and my sister-in-law took care of us brothers and sisters for many years, so that my little sister and I are what we are today. Tonight, our brothers and sisters disobeyed our elders. Zhang Ning kowtowed to apologize and asked my uncle to calm down."
Upon seeing this, the little girl quickly knelt down behind and kowtowed to Zhang Ning.
Zhang Jiujin's emotions were complicated and he couldn't explain what he was saying. After all, he didn't have as much reasoning as Zhang Ning's ink. In fact, since Zhang Ning said that disobedience was his fault, he shouldn't challenge the family leader's decision, but he just pleaded guilty and had no intention of compromising.
, still forcibly holding the decision-making power. Zhang Jiujin really had no other choice, and said dejectedly: "Get up, get up, that's all for tonight, make a noise and make the neighbors laugh."
After the uncle finished speaking, he went straight back to his room. His mother-in-law and his cousin hurriedly came over to help them. Mother-in-law Zou was a kind person and kept saying things like "don't take it seriously". The family broke up unhappy and went back to their rooms.
Already.
The younger sister looked at Zhang Ning timidly: "Brother, I got into big trouble..."
"It's okay." Zhang Ning smiled gently at her, held her hand naturally, and walked towards the west wing.
After opening the door to the younger sister's room, Zhang Ning went to light the lamp and was about to ask her to go upstairs to rest, but she held on to Zhang Ning's hand and said in a trembling voice: "Brother, send me up. I... I'm afraid
I'm going to die. If I get into such a big trouble, will my uncle come up and beat me..."
After all, she is a teenage girl, so naturally she does not have the courage of Zhang Ning. In her mind, what happened tonight must be very serious. He nodded, held the lamp and sent her upstairs, while comforting: "Uncle, you are a bit fierce.
But he is not a bad person, and he has no bad intentions towards my little sister. Why would he come to beat you in the middle of the night? Don't worry."
The little sister stared at him with big bright eyes, watching him nod vigorously, but her hands did not let go for a moment, and her tight grip reflected her inner nervousness.
Entering the little sister's boudoir, it was night again, and he felt a little uncomfortable, so he advised her to go to bed early and wash up tonight. Unexpectedly, the little sister was worried and said: "I don't want to be with my brother for a moment.
separate."
She begged pitifully: "I know what brother is going to say... I'm really scared for just one night. Please, don't leave me..."
"Brother is next door." Zhang Ning said.
She still refused to let go, "Did I do something wrong? Brother, please scold me."
"There is nothing wrong with you." Zhang Ning said, "In fact, from my point of view, uncle is not right either. There are not so many requirements for loving someone. He will love you no matter whether you can become a phoenix or not. But he is our elder.
, and he is also kind to us, don’t worry about it with him... I just want to say that my little sister did nothing wrong, so there is no need to feel burdened."
Zhang Xiaomei's eyes were full of him, and she couldn't help but nodded, and asked again: "What does brother mean by love?"
Zhang Ning frowned and thought hard for a while. He couldn't explain it clearly, so he could only try his best to describe it: "I just want to see you smile and live your life. I want to share anything delicious and fun with you. I am willing to give you the most precious things."
.”
"Does brother love me?" she continued to ask.
Zhang Ning was stunned there, looking into her eyes for a long time in silence, as if she was enduring something, and finally said softly: "I love you." When he said it, his tone was extremely gentle.
She immediately threw herself into Zhang Ning's arms and hugged his neck tightly. The explanation was very vague, but she felt Zhang Ning's mood, and there was no need to explain it in words. She put her lips against Zhang Ning's
He whispered in his ear: "My little sister will never be separated from her brother in her whole life."
The window was open, and a gust of wind suddenly came in, blowing out the lights, and the room was immediately shrouded in darkness. After a while, Zhang Ning's trembling hands were placed on the little girl's waist, and he hugged her gently
It's hard for him to hug like this under the light, but the darkness gives people courage.
Maybe people have sin hidden deep in their hearts, and they don’t do bad things because they have to bear the consequences of being punished in many ways... Then, if there is no price to pay for committing crimes, this will be the source of chaos.
Holding her body in his arms, Zhang Ning could feel her beautiful figure, and her small waistline was so admirable. He could also clearly feel her breathing and her temperature. It was like waking up for the first time at such a close distance.
He was a little nervous. Somehow, his hand had moved to the side of his little girl's chest. He could feel the outline through the cotton-padded jacket. Coupled with the soft touch on the chest, he couldn't help but collect scattered senses in his mind, imagining knitting.
Breasts under clothes.
He quickly and quietly moved his hand to her back.
Unexpectedly, the little sister didn't know much, but was very sensitive and clever. She seemed to be able to "feel" Zhang Ning's heart, and asked in a silly voice: "Brother, do you want to touch my breasts?"
Zhang Ning: "..."
"Those two things grow a little bigger every year." She whispered quietly. "It hurt a little at first. I thought it was strange. But then I saw that my sister-in-law and all the women's breasts were swollen, so I thought it was nothing. My brother wanted to touch it.
It doesn't matter, weren't you willing to give the other party anything you just said?"
Zhang Ning coughed twice, but did not speak or move.
The little sister sat up straight in her arms, and soon she heard a rustling sound. Zhang Ning then asked hurriedly: "What are you doing?"
"I'll take off my coat. How can you touch it if it's so thick?" the little girl's voice said.
Zhang Ning said hurriedly: "I won't touch it!"
"I won't tell anyone." Zhang Xiaomei whispered. Zhang Ning hurriedly said: "Don't catch a cold, put on your clothes! I'm going to hold the lamp." After saying that, he stood up from the bed and groped for a fire book on the table in front of the window.
.The weather is not very good tonight, there are no moon or stars, and the light is extremely dark.
Finally he fumbled for something. He pulled it out and found that there was no spark at all. He blew twice, but there was no response at all. He had to leave it and asked, "Do you have any flint in your room?"
"It's only in the kitchen." The little girl said, "Come here quickly, I can't see you."
"I want to go back to my room and sleep," Zhang Ning said.
Suddenly there was a heavy "thud" sound, and then Zhang Xiaomei screamed in pain. Zhang Ning asked hurriedly: "What are you doing, did you fall?"
"I don't want you to leave..." Zhang Xiaomei said reluctantly. Hearing the voice, Zhang Ning wondered if she was injured, so he groped over and touched his hands together in the dark. Zhang Xiaomei immediately threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly.
Zhu happily said, "I caught you."
"You really caught me." Zhang Ning sighed.
She said coquettishly: "Brother, stay with me, don't leave."
Zhang Ning thought for a while and said, "Then you go to bed, lie down and cover yourself with the quilt. I'll sit on the edge of the bed. You hold my hand and I won't leave."
"What should I do if you are sick?" Zhang Xiaomei's voice asked.
Zhang Ning said: "I don't get sick easily. It's not a big deal if I just sit there all night."
