sweet wife little confused

Chapter 109
The wind fluttered past his ears, and the strange thing was that once the speed of the horse increased, An Xiu'er didn't feel so uncomfortable, and the two finally came to Minyue County when the city gate was closed.

Unlike the loose management of Changning County, Minyue County has strict management. When the two entered the city gate, someone actually checked the guides and questioned their identities. It was the first time An Xiuer saw this posture, and she was a little frightened.

She didn't think too much about it, and when she came this time, she didn't go to the government to get a guide. Fortunately, Zhang Zhen'an was there, otherwise, the city guards wouldn't let her in.

Compared with the county town, this county town is undoubtedly more prosperous. Although there are no people on the streets at night, but from the spacious streets, one can imagine how it would be during the day.

"This is Min Yue County?" An Xiu'er couldn't help asking.

"Yes." Zhang Zhenan nodded, and said: "There is a curfew here, except for some dark alleys, no one will come out to set up stalls, so it is not as lively as the county town at night."

"Look at the spacious streets here, and the wide shop doors. I think it should be very lively during the day." An Xiu'er smiled slightly, but she felt that Minyue County would be very prosperous.

Although it was night, she couldn't see the scene of the county city clearly, but under the moonlight, the tall bluestone buildings stood here quietly, as if telling the history of this city. This Minyue City has been built for many years. When the villagers talked about Minyue City, they all looked forward to it.

"I'll take you out to have a look during the day, let's go home first at night." Zhang Zhen'an said as he kicked the horse towards Zhang's house.

An Xiu'er couldn't help becoming a little nervous, she tried her best to calm herself down, but thinking that she was about to go to a place she was not familiar with, her heart still couldn't help beating.

"Don't be afraid." Zhang Zhen'an comforted her in a low voice, and led her around on a horse. She didn't know where she went, and she was in a daze. When the horse stopped, she had already arrived at a big mansion. forward.

An Xiu'er has never seen such a large courtyard. The wide courtyard gate inlaid with vermilion nails is enough to make people amazed, especially the pair of tall town house beasts at the gate, which look like lions but It doesn't seem to be a lion. Under the illumination of a pair of glazed lamps on the eaves, it looks majestic and solemn.

As soon as Zhang Zhenan and the two stopped at the door, a young man came over immediately. They wanted to question him, but when they saw Zhang Zhenan, they immediately bent down and called out respectfully: "Young master."

An Xiuer leaned on him tightly, Zhang Zhenan introduced to them: "This is Madam."

"Hello Madam." The two servants immediately bowed down to greet An Xiu'er, An Xiu'er looked up at Zhang Zhen'an, Zhang Zhen'an raised his head to signal them to get up, and led An Xiu'er into the gate.

Naturally, someone came from behind to lead the horses for the two of them, and another servant hurried inside to inform Mrs. Zhang.

After entering the door, Zhang Zhenan's pace was unhurried. He led An Xiu'er and walked slowly. Whenever he met the maids and servants on the road, he always bowed and waited for them to pass by before getting up and leaving. Very good.

This posture made An Xiu'er feel slightly uneasy, but with Zhang Zhen'an at the side, she became calm and composed.

The two walked a long way, passed the screen wall, and passed through the long chasing corridor, then passed through the hanging flower gate and entered the second gate.

An Xiu'er raised her head and confided to him in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, you have to walk so far every time you go home? I reckon we've been walking for a quarter of an hour just now."

"Of course not. Usually we come in directly from the side door on horseback. You can take a carriage when the time comes. Since this is your first time here, I want to take you in through the gate." Zhang Zhenan replied.

Of course An Xiu'er knew that the side door and the main door had different meanings, so she felt warm in her heart and said, "Thank you, Mr.

"What's there to thank for that? It should be like this. I've already wronged you very much." Zhang Zhenan said.

The two of them hadn't walked a few steps before a middle-aged woman in camel-colored silk came over leading two servant girls. Under the light, the gold hairpin on her head was shining brightly. It seemed that she was well dressed. An Xiu'er had some doubts that this was Mrs. Zhang, but she instinctively felt that it didn't look like it, so she didn't make a sound.

The woman came to the two of them, bowed to them, and said: "The uncle is back, the old lady is waiting for you."

"Let's change our clothes and go." Zhang Zhen'an said flatly, stretched out his hand to help the woman, and motioned for the woman to get up.

"The old lady told you to go now." But the woman couldn't afford to bow down.

"We were full of travel and dust all the way, our clothes were dirty, and we left rashly, fearing that we would disrespect our mother." Zhang Zhenan refused.

"It's all one family, it doesn't matter what the old lady said." Although the woman was bowing her body, there was something indescribable in her words, as if she was holding a chicken feather as an arrow.

Zhang Zhen'an glanced at An Xiu'er, An Xiu'er guessed that this woman should be a close-knit woman next to the old lady, so she meant what the old lady meant, seeing the old lady's attitude really disliked her, presumably Even if she went into the house to freshen up, she still couldn't get her love.

Anyway, we have to go sooner or later, the soldiers came to cover the water and earth, she nodded as she thought about it, and said: "Then let's go see mother first."

Only then did Zhang Zhen'an say to the woman: "Lead the way ahead."

Along the way, I passed by countless pavilions, exquisite murals, and carved wooden pillars. Although An Xiuer didn't look sideways, she couldn't help but marvel. The Zhang family is really very rich. Just by looking at these buildings, you can tell Come Bufan, it must be considered as the imperial palace, that's it.

Finally entered a small garden, the woman asked An Xiuer and the two to wait by the door for the time being, and went in to report by herself. After the woman entered, Zhang Zhenan held An Xiuer's hand and introduced to her: "Just now this The woman is my mother's mother Wang, and I have always trusted her deeply."

"So that's it. I thought she was my mother. Fortunately, I didn't greet her hastily. Otherwise, I would definitely lose face." An Xiu'er said in a low voice.

She looked around her body, and couldn't help sighing, she couldn't tell how much better she was dressed by an ordinary woman.

"Old Madam, invite the two of you to come in." At this time, a little girl lowered her head and came out to inform.

Zhang Zhen'an took An Xiu'er's hand and went in. As soon as he reached the door, he let go of An Xiu'er's hand. .”

An Xiu'er and the two of them just pretended that they didn't hear, and went forward to salute Wu Shi. An Xiu'er didn't know how to salute at home, so she just bent down as usual, and then stood aside with her head bowed. He snorted coldly: "I don't understand the rules."

Zhang Zhen'an heard the words and said: "Mother, this is the son's wife An Xiu'er, you just saw her, she doesn't know the rules, please take care of her on weekdays."

"You!" Wu Shi was so angry that she didn't expect that her son, who had always been rigid and polite, would now learn to climb up the pole.

She glared at Zhang Zhen'an, but Zhang Zhen'an's expression was calm, Wu snorted again, and turned her gaze to An Xiu'er, seeing that she was wearing a set of light green cotton clothes, probably because of the reason of traveling all the way, she was a little embarrassed Yes, she has an ordinary silver hairpin on her head, and her black hair is loosely tied. She looks more shabby than the ordinary girls standing in this hall.

"Raise your head, let me have a look." Wu Shi raised her chin, she wanted to see what this girl looked like, she was able to fascinate his son, and she took the pains to pick her up in person.

An Xiu'er raised her head carefully, and it happened to meet Wu Shi's face. Wu Shi is well maintained, her head is full of emerald jewels, her face is decorated with yellow flowers, she is dressed in silk, with a bracelet on her arm. She has not been able to look up at her since she came in. In terms of appearance, she originally thought that the old lady they were talking about was a grey-haired old woman, but she never thought that she turned out to be a graceful and luxurious woman.

An Xiu'er was still obsessed with Wu's appearance, but at this moment she heard Wu's soft hum, "That's all."

Her voice is like pearls striking each other, mellow and elegant, if you ignore the two traces of disdain in her tone, it is actually very pleasant to listen to.

An Xiu'er guessed that her age should be over forty and a half. A woman like this in a peasant family has long been wasted and changed her appearance, but the years have not left too many marks on her face. An Xiu'er never knew that this Women of this age group can still be like this, the young lady is half-old, and her plumpness is still there.

Faced with her, she couldn't help feeling a little inferior. Although she was young, the old lady in front of her was more charming than her. She was like a peony in full bloom, and the other flowers were eclipsed.

She looked around for a while, besides Zhang Zhenan and the old lady, there were many maidservants serving in the room. White and tender, slim, every dress is more gorgeous than her.

She felt as if she was a lost little beast that had strayed into a place that didn't belong to her, and she was in a different world from the person in front of her.

Zhang Zhen'an saw that An Xiu'er was a little uneasy, and was very worried about her, so he said: "Mother, if there is nothing else, we will leave first."

"It's hard to come back. Do you forget to spend more time with me? As the old saying goes, if you marry a daughter-in-law, you forget your mother." Wu snorted coldly, with a dissatisfied and tough tone.

Zhang Zhenan had no choice but to stand where he was.

Wu said: "Go and sit down, I'll talk to this girl from the country."

She specially said a few words from the countryside, and the disdain in her words was undisguised. Although An Xiuer felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, she straightened her back and accepted Wu Shi's scrutiny.

In her heart, although Wu Shi is dressed in gorgeous clothes and is a real urbanite, she is not really inferior to her as a countryman. She does not ask for her money, so she is naturally open-minded in her heart. I have already thought about this situation, and discussed it with Zhang Zhenan, and I came to the conclusion that I should talk less.

So she still didn't say a word, and let Wu Shi's needle-like eyes poke around her body, but her heart became more and more calm.

Wu took the teacup handed over by the maid, took a sip, and then said casually, "What do you do at home on weekdays?"

"Before I left the court, I would do whatever my parents asked me to do. After I left the court, I would do whatever my husband asked me to do." An Xiu'er lowered her eyebrows and was pleasing to the eye.

"No dignity!" Wu snorted coldly, never thought that An Xiu'er had such a soft temper, "You listen to others in everything, if others let you die, what should you do?"

"No, they are none other than my relatives." An Xiu'er raised her head and explained seriously: "My mother taught me since childhood that the husband is the guide for the wife, obey the father at home and obey the husband when married."

"You mean to say that I'm out of line?" Wu Shi frowned, and tightened his hand holding the teacup.

An Xiu'er raised her head and smiled shyly, but didn't answer her.

Seeing her like this, Wu's heart was angry, but she also felt helpless. She glanced at Zhang Zhen'an and said, "Zhen'an, you married such a woman? If you want an obedient woman, there are many people in our family. What's more, why must she do it!"

Zhang Zhenan just shrugged his shoulders and did not argue.

Wu Shi punched heavily, but it hit the cotton, not to mention how uncomfortable it was. She wanted to find An Xiu'er's faults, but she let her knead her, and she felt more and more boring. into silence.

After a while, she waved her hand impatiently, motioning for the two to leave, but said one more word stingily.

Zhang Zhen'an and Zhang Zhen'an only bowed silently when they saw this, and then went out.

As soon as they walked out of the flower hall, An Xiu'er and Zhang Zhenan showed a sly smile, Zhang Zhenan also lowered his head and smiled at her, saying: "My mother is actually not that scary."

"Well, it's not scary." An Xiu'er nodded.

In fact, because these great wives pay attention to face, they are easier to get along with than those old women in the countryside who are always sloppy.

An Xiu'er thought she understood Wu's family, and she had already thought of a way to deal with Wu's family. She looked up at Zhang Zhen'an, and felt that such a terrible person like Zhang Zhen'an had been taken care of by her in the past, so a mere Wu's family should be nothing Down.

People's hearts are fleshy, as long as they are sincere and sincerely do her best, maybe one day she will let go of her family background.
