Chapter 317 Every day is like a year
"Brother, let alone you, even I can't figure out why he would show up for this matter!"
Zhang Chengyong said with a complicated expression.
Based on his understanding of Du Guan, he suspected that his second aunt was not coming tomorrow but was planning to come in a few days, and there was a high possibility that it was because of Du Guan.
He knew clearly how that bastard Du Guan treated his family.
Even though Du Guan was not yet successful back then, he was always busy running around in their family and was particularly enthusiastic about their family affairs. He would visit their house during every festival and often bring gifts.
Although they are not valuable things, they are all thoughts from others.
Until later.
Du Guan gradually became rich, and their business was getting better day by day. He often used busy business as an excuse and stopped visiting their home during festivals.
According to his mother, Du Guan is a wolf from Zhongshan, and he becomes rampant when he gets the upper hand.
Not long ago.
Du Guan suddenly spoke up and advised his second aunt to come to their house early tomorrow morning. He even suspected that he was hallucinating and pinched his arm at that time. If it weren't for the burning pain in his arm reminding him all the time.
He didn't even believe that Du Guan would say that!
Zhang Chengze frowned and asked, "What's going on? Tell me the whole story from beginning to end. I wonder if he is deliberately trying to trick you back or something!"
"Brother, I'll tell you everything from beginning to end..."
Zhang Chengyong narrated everything in detail.
Not long after, Zhang Chengze finished listening to Zhang Chengyong's story, and suddenly reacted. He sneered and said, "You mean, he knew that the little aunt's family would come to our house tomorrow, so he persuaded the second aunt to come early tomorrow morning?"
Zhang Chengyong nodded, then reacted and said, "Brother, do you mean that he persuaded the second aunt because of the little aunt's family?"
"No one in Zhangjia Village doesn't know what this bastard Du Guan is!"
A member of the Zhang family snorted coldly. When Du Guan was not yet successful, he often ran around the Zhang family and was very respectful to their elders. But after Du Guan became successful, he no longer had any respect for them and was completely arrogant.
Another member of the Zhang family sneered, "I think he knows that your aunt's Ru Hai is promising and is going to Beijing to take the imperial examination. If he passes the imperial examination, he can become an official. He wants to curry favor with your aunt, so he persuaded your second aunt to come over tomorrow!"
Normally speaking, it is not convenient for people like them to comment on such matters, but it is Du Guan's fault for being a bad person, and Zhang Guilian's behavior was too excessive.
Her eldest brother passed away, but she didn't rush over early. She planned to wait a few days before coming back just because she was busy with business. Is this something a human being can do?
These outsiders - no, they are not outsiders, they are all Zhang Deben's elders or brothers of the same clan, and it is right for them to scold Zhang Guilian.
Zhang Chengze looked at the Zhang family members who were cursing in the hall with an apologetic look on his face, and said, "My second aunt and her family are coming tomorrow. If there's any trouble, please bear with me!"
"Humph! If she has the guts to cause trouble at Deben's funeral and make Deben die in turmoil, I will make her take a beating no matter how rich her family is!"
A member of the Zhang family snorted coldly.
A smile appeared on the corner of Zhang Chengze's mouth. He didn't expose his family's dirty laundry in public for no reason. He had his own purpose, and now that his goal was achieved, he didn't dare to disturb his aunt's family's rest any longer.
Zhang Chengze winked at Zhu Lancui!
When Zhu Lancui led the Wang family away, Wang Lin passed by Zhang Chengze, raised a thumb, and praised him in a low voice:
"Chengze, you are becoming more and more capable. You can be the pillar of this family. Even if your father passes away, you don't have to worry about your family's affairs anymore. You can leave with peace of mind!"
"Uncle-in-law, I don't understand you!"
Zhang Chengze chuckled, turned around and said to Zhang Chengyong who was indignant beside him: "What are you still standing there for? Go to the bedroom and see our father and mother. Our father just left, don't let anything happen to us!" "I'll go right away!"
Zhang Chengyong reacted immediately and said impatiently.
The next day, early in the morning, it was still light.
"Big brother!"
A loud shouting sounded, waking up the people who were on guard in the hall. Wang Lin quickly stood up from his seat and said impatiently: "Uncles, my Guihua has woken up. I'll go see what's going on!"
"Go quickly, but don't let anything happen to Guihua!"
Wang Lin hurriedly turned around and left. For him, this night was like a year. It was not that he did not stay up all night, which was not a big deal for him. It was because he had been talking about that beast the whole night.
It’s not that these Zhang family members want to ask that beast for help!
Those who can stay at Zhang's house to keep watch at night are all older people in the family. Although they have not received much education, they have lived half a lifetime and know a thing or two about the ways of the world.
We know that favors become thinner the more we use them, so we should use them at critical moments.
just.
Although these Zhang family members did not intend to ask Wang Lin or Wang Ruhai for help, they would talk about Wang Ruhai from time to time and would praise him a few words, among which they would inevitably say that Wang Lin and his wife had raised their children well and had such a good child.
When Wang Lin heard this, he felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife, but he had no way to refute it.
Who made that beast do such a thing? It was so despicable that he didn't even have the face to mention it.
They talked about this most of the night, how could he not feel uncomfortable?
Wang Lin nervously ran to the bedroom arranged for him by Zhu Lancui, and saw his wife and son-in-law sitting up on the bed. His daughter-in-law was comforting his wife.
Wang Lin was surprised and asked, "Dong Zhu, it's just dawn, why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"Dad, I'm full of sleep!"
Liu Dongzhu responded.
Wang Lin knew that his daughter-in-law must have been awakened by his wife, and was afraid that something had happened to his wife, so he ran over impatiently, and said nothing more, worriedly: "Guihua, what's wrong with you, did you have a nightmare?"
"Old man, I dreamed about my elder brother!"
Zhang Guihua said in surprise.
Wang Lin nodded and said, “When you got married, you cried all night and I couldn’t comfort you. I even forced your elder brother to stay in our house for ten days to half a month. I almost became a joke in Hutougou.
Your elder brother passed away suddenly like this, it's normal for you to dream about him!
how.
Did your elder brother say anything to you?"
although.
Don’t take what you say in dreams seriously. Even if dreams are not real, they can at least serve as a comfort.
Zhang Guihua seemed to have thought of something, and said in great joy: "Old man, you don't know, my eldest brother told me in a dream that the King of Hell said he had merits and virtues, and it just so happened that there had been a mountain god in our Lion Ridge that had been vacant for many years, and asked him whether he would like to be reincarnated into a wealthy family in the next life, or return to Lion Ridge to be a mountain god!"
