Compared with the dilapidated courtyard in the past, this small courtyard prepared for Zheng Xueyu by the senior members of the Zheng family is worthy of Miss Zheng Xueyu's status.
Looking at the rockery garden in the courtyard, Zheng Dongfang stopped, with a wry smile on his lips.
"If it's spring, this small courtyard will definitely be beautiful."
"Unfortunately, it's winter."
Zheng Xueyu came out from the main room, her face was as cold as ever.
It stands to reason that Zheng Xueyu should bow and salute when seeing Zheng Dongfang, but she didn't.
Zheng Dongfang didn't mind either, and squeezed a smile out of his face: "This small courtyard was cleaned up late."
"It doesn't make much sense to me whether to clean up or not. It's just a place to live, and it won't last long."
"Women, after all, want to get married."
Zheng Xueyu glanced at the maid who was looking nervously, and said to Zheng Dongfang: "I beg the patriarch to disperse these servants."
"First of all, I can take care of myself, and secondly, the Zheng family's defenses are so tight that I can hardly fly."
Zheng Dongfang looked around, his face darkened, and he reprimanded sharply.
"I have an important matter to discuss with the eldest lady, what are you doing here?"
These maidservants and guards were all carefully selected by Zheng Sinan. Hearing what Zheng Dongfang said, he felt a little reluctant.
They just directly disobeyed Zheng Dongfang's order, and they were not so courageous due to their low status.
After walking out of the courtyard, Zheng Dongfang used his mind to make an exception and searched out those servants, and indeed there was a leader who hurried towards Zheng Sinan's small courtyard.
Zheng Dongfang spread his hands at Zheng Xueyu: "In the hearts of the Zheng family, I am really dispensable as the patriarch."
"That's better than me, too."
Zheng Xueyu looked up at the blue sky, and asked softly: "The patriarch is here now, do you have anything to tell me?"
Zheng Dongfang hurriedly said: "I am not qualified to order the eldest lady."
Zheng Xueyu frowned upon hearing what Zheng Dongfang said, "Is it because of my status as the future daughter-in-law of the head of the Zhang family?"
"No, because you are Zheng Zitian's only daughter, I am your uncle."
Zheng Dongfang looked down at the snow under his feet, and said slowly: "The Zheng family is sorry for you, and I am sorry for you."
"You have suffered so much these years, as your uncle, I actually"
Before Zheng Dongfang finished speaking, Zheng Xueyu said unceremoniously: "If the patriarch came here to tell me these things, please go back."
Zheng Dongfang looked at Zheng Xueyu's cold side: "I want to tell you what kind of character Zhang Liuyun is."
Zheng Xueyu replied bluntly: "I don't want to know."
Do not want to know? Zheng Dongfang was taken aback: "Why?"
"Whether he is good or bad, if I leave this door, I will not be from the Zheng family."
Zheng Xueyu turned to look at Zheng Dongfang, who was extremely astonished, and smiled slightly.
"My father once said when I was young that this bloodline was not given by him, but by the Zheng family."
"I have repeatedly advised myself to think about the Zheng family in every way. Today, I can be considered worthy of the Zheng family's ancestors."
Zheng Dongfang stared at Zheng Xueyu's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Tomorrow, I will go to see you off."
Zheng Xueyu replied indifferently: "It doesn't matter whether the patriarch goes or the grand elder goes, to me, it has the same meaning."
I went with Zheng Sinan, how could it be the same?
Zheng Dongfang clenched his fists and finally made a decision.
"The decline of the Zheng family is inevitable, unless there is an unrivaled talent."
"Ye Lingtian can be regarded as an unrivaled talent. Unfortunately, he is not from the Zheng family, and he will not do his best for the Zheng family."
Hearing what Zheng Dongfang said, Zheng Xueyu snorted softly.
How could Zheng Dongfang not know what Zheng Xueyu meant, and said in a low voice: "That day when Ximen Wuji came to kill me, I know why the young lady said those words."
Zheng Xueyu snorted, and said in a clear voice, "Let's talk about it, the patriarch."
"First of all, if there is no explanation, the Zheng family will not be able to step down, and neither will Ye Lingtian."
"Secondly, Miss doesn't want the Zheng family to become Ye Lingtian's burden. Ye Lingtian will definitely fly."
Facing the rockery not far away, Zheng Xueyu's mouth was inexplicably relieved and happy.
"He didn't fly in Shangyin City, but in the Eastern Continent."
Seeing Zheng Xueyu's appearance, Zheng Dongfang said decisively: "He has already flown, he is the future brother-in-law of the patriarch of the Wanyan family."
The future brother-in-law of the Wanyan family patriarch?
Zheng Xueyu trembled all over, looking incredible.
"Didn't the patriarch mean that Xiaoyue is the sister of the patriarch of the Wanyan family?"
Zheng Dongfang nodded emphatically, thinking of Zhang Piaomiao's speculation, his face was full of shame.
"The fifth elder of the Zhang family can tell at a glance that Wanyanyue's identity is not simple. We still think she is Liao Xuanyuan's niece."
"This is the gap between the Zheng family and the top families. The Zheng family can't go far."
How far the Zheng family can go is no longer a question for Zheng Xueyu to think about. After hearing Wan Yanyue's real identity, she was inexplicably excited.
Since Wanyan Yue is Wanyan Zhi's biological younger sister, she has a very good vision.
Being able to fall in love with Ye Lingtian in such a short period of time, Ye Lingtian has his own ability.
With the Wanyan family's high platform, coupled with Ye Lingtian's ability, he is an eagle that is about to spread its wings and soar high.
Zheng Xueyu couldn't help thinking of the previous conversation with Ye Lingtian, her eyes were full of happiness.
"Xueyu, the Zhang family is a fire pit, you can't jump, I will order someone to get in touch with Wanyanyue at night."
"On the way to see you off, I'll look for an opportunity to let you escape and let Wanyanyue take care of you."
"The Eastern Continent is so big, there must be a place for you."
Zheng Dongfang gritted his teeth, and the words that came out of his mouth were like an eternal oath.
"The Zheng family's downfall is inevitable, and you cannot be buried with them!"
Zheng Xueyu laughed when he heard what Zheng Dongfang said.
"You still don't understand?"
"You know why I drove him out of Zheng's house."
"Why are you confused at this point?"
Zheng Dongfang chopped off his feet, and said earnestly: "Xueyu, why are you so rigid?"
"I understand that you don't want the Zheng family to become Ye Lingtian's burden, but you don't want to spend your whole life on it!"
"You haven't realized Rou'er's lesson from the past"
Zheng Xueyu waved her small hand and said bluntly: "Don't say any more, I've made up my mind."
"You..." Zheng Dongfang pointed at Zheng Xueyu, and his words were full of hatred: "Why are you just like your father, so stubborn!"
"Because I'm his daughter."
Zheng Xueyu smiled at Zheng Dongfang: "Uncle Dongfang, if you are really good for me, then take advantage of the short time to gather the bloody Zheng family in your hands."
"You said just now that the Zheng family's ruin is inevitable, so we must think of a way out for the family."
"In recent years, some big families may not touch the Zheng family. What about five years later, ten years later?"
Speaking of this, Zheng Xueyu let out a breath, and said softly: "It's hard to say how long I can stay in the Zhang family."
Zheng Dongfang looked at Zheng Xueyu, his eyes were slightly red.
"Xueyu, you are so stupid."
Zheng Xueyu turned her back to Zheng Dongfang, walked slowly towards the room, and said in a low voice, "Am I stupid?"
No, I just feel that I am smarter, especially after hearing Xiaoyue's real identity, I feel even smarter.
Even if Ye Lingtian has the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, he still needs a platform.
I can't give him a platform, but Wanyanyue can.
The matter between Ye Lingtian and Wanyanyue is actually not that simple.
Zheng Xueyu didn't say these words in his heart.
After returning to the room, she changed into a dazzling red dress, and looked back and forth in front of the bronze mirror several times.
If you tell your own story, many people will comment.
But is there really anyone in this world who understands himself?
In fact, no, the person who can understand oneself will always be himself.
The sun finally rose the next day, and the entire Zheng Family Courtyard was ablaze with red.
That festive appearance is like spring has arrived.
Zheng Dongfang's proposal to send off his relatives was rejected by Zheng Sinan without hesitation.
First of all, it was not Zheng Dongfang's turn to really show up.
Secondly, Zheng Xueyu was sent to the Zhang family. Zheng Sinan also counted on the elites under his command to forge a deep friendship with some people in the Zhang family.
Otherwise, he wouldn't even carry the Immortal Cultivation Pill as a dowry.
As the elder of the Zheng family, Zheng Sinan would not be ignorant of the current situation of the Zheng family, nor would he be unaware of how many big families were eyeing the Zheng family.
Deep down in Zheng Sinan's heart, he didn't expect the Zhang family to help the Zheng family much in times of crisis.
What he hopes is that before the Zheng family regains its vitality, the Zhang family can give the Zheng family as much protection as possible and keep the position of the top ten aristocratic families.
He has his own plans for where the Zheng family will go after that.
Zheng Xueyu, who was wearing a red hijab, boarded the big red sedan chair.
After a series of firecrackers were ignited, the sound of gongs and drums sounded.
Zheng Sinan nodded to Zhang Miumiao, and they rode on tall horses together and headed west.
The people of Shangyin City looked at the team beating gongs and drums with awe in their eyes.
A few days ago, Ximen Wuji made a fuss about the Zheng family, which caused the Zheng family's prestige in Shangyin City to drop a lot.
But today, the Zheng family used their marriage with the Zhang family to tell the people and families of Shangyin City.
The Zheng family will always be the largest family in Shangyin City, no matter in the past or in the future, the position of the top ten families of the Zheng family is firmly established.
Zheng Sinan was riding a horse, the corners of his mouth were filled with the arrogance that a family should have.
He not only wanted to tell Shangyin City the news that the Zheng family and the Zhang family were on the line, but also told all the cities along the way, so that those families who were eager to try would be able to settle down.
A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, now is definitely not the time for you to jump around.
Zhang Miyao turned her head to look at Zheng Sinan's arrogant and infinite appearance, and the contempt in her eyes was swept away.
As the fifth elder, Zhang Piaomiao knew the current situation of the Zhang family.
The Zhang family needs a powerful woman from the top ten aristocratic families to wash away the rumors about Zhang Liuyun, at least on the surface to keep the Zhang family's face.
After all, the patriarch's only son's orientation in a certain aspect is too different, which has a great impact on the Zhang family's honor.
But as a father, even if he forced Zhang Mimiao with a knife, he didn't want his daughter to have anything to do with Zhang Liuyun.
People often use a beast to describe someone's bad behavior, but no matter how beastly a person is, he will not have any physical relationship with a real beast.
Zhang Liuyun has such an orientation, which is really incredible.
Of course, if Zhang Liuyun was his own child, Zhang Piaomiao wouldn't mind beheading him.
It is a disgrace to have such a child alive.
