Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space
Chapter 170 Xiao Ting Repents
Xiao Wan stepped forward and held Xiao Ting's hand. Xiao Ting's eyes turned red and she almost cried. She had done many wrong things in the past and had never repented. It was not until now that she realized how wrong she was. Xiao Wan patted her hand to comfort her.
Xiao Wan had the things placed on the table in the main hall, and said affectionately to Xiao Ting and Uncle Xiao, "Uncle, I was away when my sister got married, so I didn't have time to add any dowry. These are gifts for her."
As she spoke, she lifted the plate in front of her, revealing an exquisite gold hairpin lying quietly in the jewelry box, dazzling everyone's eyes.
Xiao Wan continued, "This gold hairpin is a piece of jewelry awarded to me by the Emperor. I brought it specially for my sister to use as a makeup accessory."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. This was a holy object, and they couldn't help but want to kneel down.
The Zhang brothers looked at the golden hairpin with greedy eyes, which made Xiao Wan feel nauseous.
Xiao Ting was so moved that she shed tears. She realized how stupid she was before.
Xiao Wan smiled and comforted her.
In fact, this gold hairpin is just one of the many rewards. It is not eye-catching and it is okay to give it to Xiao Ting. After all, even if it is just a leaf, as long as it is related to the royal family, the people will present it as a tribute.
She came here today to slap the Zhang family in the face for the gold hairpin awarded by the emperor.
Then he helped Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao to sit up, and he sat down himself. Tian Shuang and Zhang Liang stood on both sides of Xiao Wan respectively.
A white shadow rushed in from outside the house, scaring the eldest and second sons of the Zhang family so much that they almost jumped up.
I saw Grandma Xiao gently calling Bai Tuantuan over and touching its head, looking very intimate.
Xiao Ting's heart was in her throat. When she saw that the big tiger actually enjoyed letting her grandmother pet it,
The eldest and second sons of the Zhang family were shocked and confused, trying to guess the identity of the visitor.
Xiao Wan smiled slightly and said to Uncle Xiao, "Uncle, I just heard that Sister Ting is back, so I came here to see her. Who are these two?"
Uncle Xiao was happy that Xiao Wan was so friendly to Xiao Ting and was deeply moved. Xiao Wan's status as a county lord meant that coming here would also give Xiao Ting a lot of face.
Hearing Xiao Wan's question, she quickly pointed at the two and replied, "Sister Wan, this is Sister Ting's husband, your brother-in-law, and this is Sister Ting's eldest uncle."
Xiao Wan said "Oh", nodded without any emotion, and said "Hello, both of you". She didn't even call him brother-in-law, but just smiled perfunctorily.
The two men were extremely angry, but Young Master Zhang felt that he and his brother should be able to see that she was not an ordinary citizen. This woman was so arrogant, could she be the Princess of Huide County?
So he forced a smile and asked tentatively, "But is it the Huide County Lady?"
Xiao Wan nodded nonchalantly. Tian Shuang stepped forward and said, "My daughter is the third-rank Huide County Lady, personally appointed by the Emperor. Why don't you two show respect when you see her?"
The two Zhang brothers were delighted at first when they heard this. They didn't expect that this lowly maid Xiao Ting would be so valued by the county lord. It seemed that they had to coax her well.
Then he heard Tian Shuang asking them to pay their respects to the county lord, and he felt annoyed and did not move for a while.
Zhang Liang shouted, "How dare you! My daughter was personally conferred the title by the Emperor. Jiyun City is the county lord's fiefdom. The Emperor recently praised her, and the imperial edict is still here. How dare you refuse to kneel before the county lord? What are your intentions? Are you disobeying the Emperor's order?"
These big hats put on them scared the Zhang brothers.
Although the two came from wealthy families, in the final analysis, among the four classes of scholars, farmers, artisans and merchants, merchants came last, and his family did not have a deep foundation.
Unlike Xiao Wan, who was personally conferred an imperial title by the emperor as a peasant girl, I heard a few days ago that she was also praised by the emperor with a given name, and is the real master of Jiyun City.
At this time, Zhang Liang accused them of disobeying the emperor's order, and the two of them knelt down hurriedly, saying that they dared not!
How could they dare to disobey the emperor? They also realized that Xiao Wan's status as a third-rank county lady was not just talk, not to mention that the imperial edict was still in the Xiao family!
The two were so scared that they broke out in cold sweats and lowered their self-proclaimed noble heads. No matter how much resentment they had in their hearts, they could not vent it. They just hoped that Xiao Wan would not bother with them.
Xiao Ting felt very happy watching from the side!
The two Zhang brothers used their eyes to signal Xiao Ting to plead for them, but Xiao Ting didn't even look at them, which made them even more angry.
Grandpa Xiao and the others were stunned, not understanding why Wan'er would embarrass the Zhang family.
Uncle Xiao looked at Xiao Wan with confusion and pleading in his eyes. Xiao Wan shook her head gently, and Xiao Ting also signaled to her father not to care what Xiao Wan did.
The four members of the Xiao family suppressed their uneasiness and just watched Xiao Wan act.
Xiao Wan has always respected her elders and been friendly to her siblings. There might really be a reason for her doing this!
Xiao Ting told them not to interfere, so they had no choice but to stand aside and keep silent.
Only Xiao Xu looked at Xiao Wan and Xiao Ting thoughtfully, with some calculations in his mind. When he looked at the two Zhang brothers again, his eyes were filled with dissatisfaction and scrutiny.
