Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space
Chapter 161 Hypocritical Face
When these words were spoken, not only was Xiao Ting surprised, but even the eldest young lady's wife showed shock and dissatisfaction.
What's wrong with the father-in-law? A concubine sent by a peasant family is worthy of being a relative of the Zhang family, and she is his sister-in-law? Is she worthy?
Even if...
Xiao Ting even said she didn't deserve it, and after a moment's hesitation, she replied, "My uncle has several sisters and brothers."
She was still not used to calling herself a slave, but the eldest young lady's wife sent someone to explain the rules to her that concubines were equivalent to slaves, so she had to humiliate herself by calling herself a slave.
"Oh? It's your uncle's family, right? Is the current Huide County Lady also your sister?" After hearing this, Mr. Zhang leaned forward excitedly and asked.
Xiao Ting looked at everyone in the hall blankly, not knowing what was going on. What was Huide County Master?
Ever since she entered the Zhang family, she has never paid attention to what is happening outside, and of course she has no chance to go out, so she doesn't know that Xiao Wan has become the Princess of Huide County.
She looked bewildered, and Young Master Zhang explained, "Now, Xiao Wan from the Xiao family in your village has been personally conferred the title of Princess Huide by the Emperor, a third-rank official. Sister-in-law, why didn't you tell our family earlier so we could go and congratulate the Princess."
Sister-in-law? County Lady? Wan'er?
Xiao Ting was stunned by Young Master Zhang's series of words.
Did she hear it right? The young master called her his sister-in-law?
Xiao Wan became the county lord, but Xiao Ting no longer felt envious or jealous. She just wanted to know what the Zhang family wanted to do.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Ting's mind turned a few times, and replied: "I'm not sure about this. I haven't been back home since I entered the house, so I don't know about this good news."
The Zhang family felt a little embarrassed when they heard this.
That's right, they just thought of it as buying a slave, but the Zhang family agreed because the matchmaker said that her horoscope would bring good luck to her husband.
But she is not qualified to be the second young lady of the Zhang family.
Who cares whether she goes home or not? She is just a servant and no one cares whether she lives or dies.
However, the matchmaker was right about one thing. Xiao Ting's horoscope was good for marrying a husband. It had only been a short time since she was brought in, and she had already heard that her sister had been conferred the title of county lady.
Mr. Zhang had been eyeing the Xiao family's workshop for a long time, but the stalkers were always beaten back, and with the county magistrate protecting the Xiao family, Mr. Zhang did not act rashly.
The stalker was beaten. It seems that the Xiao family has a backer, not just the county magistrate, who cannot be easily touched.
In addition, the two shopkeepers of Baililou were defeated by the Xiao family one after another. After all, Baililou's background was unfathomable, but it could not defeat the Xiao family, a mere farmer. Master Zhang was even more wary of it.
But the Xiao family workshop was a huge piece of fat meat, and he could only watch but not eat it. He had to watch the flour products sell all over the country, and he was so jealous.
The flour products of the Xiao family workshop have always been represented by Yunkelai. The Xiao family does not buy from anyone else except Yunkelai.
Who knew there would be a way out? The concubine he bought casually turned out to be a member of the Xiao family. Mr. Zhang was almost amazed at his good luck.
She told her son and daughter-in-law to be nicer to Xiao Ting. Since Xiao Wan was named the county lady and they were relatives, they would be able to talk things over in the future.
That is the third-rank county lady appointed by the emperor himself!
As long as they can establish a relationship, they don't dare to ask for exclusivity, they just want to get a share of the powder products.
The powder products business is so prosperous that it makes people jealous and excited. Mr. Zhang seems to have seen huge amounts of money flying towards him.
Even if he couldn't become an agent, he could still enjoy the shade under a big tree. In the future, whether in Yuntai Town or Jiyun City, he wouldn't be afraid of his rivals making trouble for him.
After all, Jiyun City is Xiao Wan's fiefdom, so of course Xiao Wan has the final say.
Thinking of this, Mr. Zhang looked at Xiao Ting with even more passion in his eyes, and Xiao Ting felt frightened by Mr. Zhang's gaze.
Young Master Zhang obviously thought the same thing as his father, so the father and son worked together to persuade the second young master to change his attitude towards Xiao Ting, as their family still had to rely on her.
Young Master Zhang agreed reluctantly, but his face was still stiff when facing Xiao Ting.
Seeing the attitude of the Zhang family father and son, Xiao Ting had no choice but to understand.
In the past, she was naive and ignorant, vain, and only wanted fame and fortune.
As the eldest daughter of the Xiao family's eldest son, she only knew how to enjoy herself and had no friendship with her brothers and sisters. Now that she has entered the Zhang Mansion, she has finally come to her senses.
The Zhang family's attitude towards her changed, but it was only because of Xiao Wan. It was just that Xiao Ting didn't want the Zhang family to take advantage of Xiao Wan, nor did she want them to have an easy life.
During the three days he was tied to the pillar, he had already made up his mind to take revenge on them.
Mr. Zhang's embarrassment flashed away, and then he said to Xiao Ting with a kind smile on his face, "Good child, our family has neglected it. We'll prepare it in the next few days and let your second son and your eldest brother accompany you to visit your parents' home. Your sisters have all become county ladies, so you must go back to congratulate them and bring back our family's gift for the county lady."
"Your father and your brother must have missed you very much. Bring them something good. Your brother must be a good child too. If there are any problems at home in the future, just tell us. Our family still has some capabilities."
Xiao Ting listened stiffly. Although Mr. Zhang's words seemed well-intentioned, she still heard a threat in them.
