Since Cui didn't care about their hard work of traveling more than 2,000 miles to add boxes, and now Sheng Xuan is not around, the three of them don't need to consider his feelings, so they can be less cautious and speak more truthfully.

The situation is now tense. If Zhang backs down, one can imagine what kind of life the three of them will have to live in Hejian County in the next few days.

They came all the way to Hejian County, not to be trampled under the feet of others.

As a mother, Zhang wanted to provide for her children. Seeing Xiaolan and Xiaowen surrounding her and silently supporting her, she no longer had to face Cui's panic.

"Grandma, let's talk about this today. Let's not start from the distant past, let's start with why we split up the family..." Zhang said.

Cui Shi didn't have the power to control Zhang Shi, but forced Zhang Shi to talk to her about why the family was divided. Why was the family divided? Naturally, it involved the matter of arranging a ghost marriage for Xiao Lan.

Cui was panicking. She just hung her head and sobbed, but she didn't say anything anymore.

"Third wife, you are a generous person. Our mother has such a temper that she always says things without thinking. We shouldn't take her seriously." Sheng Lanhua said with a smile, "Third wife, don't be fooled by our mother's harsh words. She knows everything in her heart. She always praises you to us, saying that you are a virtuous person with a good heart."

"You can't write two characters for prosperity with one stroke. You came all the way here just for this friendship. Besides, Chunhua is not much older than Xiaoting. I know you love Chunhua. How can such a good heart change because of a few words from our mother?"

Cui raised her head and wanted to speak, but Lanhua stopped her with a look.

"Third brother's wife, you, Third brother and the children in the family are all good people. Don't bother with an old woman like her. You have traveled more than 2,000 miles here just in the spring. We all know how hard the journey was. You came here because you have affection for Chunhua. Gifts and other things are secondary. Besides, your gift and the gift from Fourth brother's family are the best in the eyes of us farmers." Old Master Sheng advised.

"That's right, Third Brother's wife, look our father has also said so, you have a broad mind, so don't take mother's words to heart, we should just do what we have to do." Lanhua said with a smile.

"Chunhua, haven't you always said that you missed your third sister-in-law? Now that your third sister-in-law is here, why don't you come over and kiss her. You are getting married tomorrow, and you won't have much time to spend together." Lanhua quickly winked at Chunhua.

Ever since Zhang came into the house, Chunhua has never called her sister-in-law.

Lanhua kept winking at Chunhua.

"Chunhua, say hello to your third sister-in-law." Old Master Sheng said in a deep voice.

Chunhua pouted, stood up aggrievedly, and said hello to Zhang reluctantly.

Lanhua pushed Cui again and said in a low voice, "Mom, please say something too."

"What is there to say?" Cui turned around on the kang and faced the window.

"Third wife, this old woman has just this kind of temper. Let me apologize to you on her behalf." Old Master Sheng said as he was about to stand up.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Xiao Lan got up from Zhang's arms and sat up straight.

"Dad, what are you doing? Sit down and talk." Zhang also stood up. After Xiaolan and Xiaowen helped the old man sit down, she sat down too.

"Where were we talking just now..." Zhang asked deliberately.

"Mom, what you said just now, I'm afraid my grandma is overthinking it and thinking you are going to bring up bad things from the past again." Xiao Lan said with a smile.

Lanhua saw that the mother and daughter were singing the same tune, so she also laughed and said, "No, we didn't say anything. Neither of us said anything."

Zhang and Xiao Lan exchanged glances. In fact, Zhang said this just now just to scare Cui and not let her be too arrogant. However, Cui must not know this idea, otherwise the old woman will definitely think that Zhang is still the easy-to-control Zhang from before.

Cui's commotion did not gain any advantage, but instead caused her to suffer losses. Although the atmosphere in the room was awkward, it finally calmed down.

"Which room is Xiaoyuan's wife in? I'll go see her." Zhang didn't want to stay in this room anymore. It was too depressing.

Zhang, Xiaolan and Xiaowen got off the kang, and Mr. Sheng also got off the kang.

Zhang took Xiaolan to see Pang Xiu'e, but Xiaowen didn't need to go.

"Grandpa, let's go somewhere else to chat." Xiao Wen said to Grandpa Sheng.

After all, Mr. Sheng has been in Hejian County for more than a year. During this long period of time, many things have happened in the family, so Sheng Xuan's letter naturally did not describe them in such detail. This time Xiaowen came, so it was a good opportunity to talk to the old man face to face.

"Okay, I'll have a good chat with my eldest grandson. Your eldest uncle, second uncle and a few cousins ​​are all out on business and won't be back until the evening." Grandpa Sheng said with a smile, and led Xiaowen out.

Xiao Lan went to the west wing with Zhang to visit Pang Xiu'e.

There are two rooms in the west wing, which are divided into two rooms. One room is occupied by Sheng Laoer, his wife Shen, Xiaoliang and Xiaocao, and the other room is occupied by Xiaoyuan and Pang Xiu'e.

As soon as she reached the door, Shen and Pang Xiu'e came out with Xiaocao to greet her. They had already met each other, but Zhang was taken to Mr. Sheng's room by Wang, and she did not go there.

After entering the house, Pang Xiu'e warmly invited Zhang's parents to get on the kang.

"Xiao Cao, go and pour a cup of tea for your Third Aunt and your Sister Xiao Lan." Shen called.

Xiao Cao responded and turned to go out. After a while, he came back with tea.

The Shen family treated Zhang and Xiaolan very humbly. Xiaolan looked at the yard and the house. It was much smaller than the old Sheng family house. The thickness of the walls didn't seem to be soundproof. Xiaolan guessed that the people in this room had already known about the commotion in the upper room.

"Aunt San, you're here just for the sake of face. It's more than two thousand miles away, so you have to accept the favor, right?"
