Passerby's Guide to Eating Watermelons

"Crackling, crackling..."

As the sound of firecrackers filled the surroundings, everyone looked towards the door with joy.

Looking at the mansion filled with red decorations and the bustling crowds coming and going outside, you can tell that this is a wedding banquet.

Zuo Zhizhi relied on her young age and squeezed to the front without hesitation. Even though the maid beside her told her not to do so countless times, she did not change at all.

Anyway, I am young now, so doing something out of the ordinary is not a big deal. Otherwise, will I be trapped in the backyard every day in a few years?

The others also knew Zuo Zhizhi's temper and were not too angry. They just told her to be careful. After all, today was her eldest brother's wedding. It would be unlucky if she accidentally bumped into something!

Today's wedding banquet was very lively. After all, the protagonist of the wedding was the granddaughter of the Grand Tutor. It had to be said that she was the high branch that everyone wanted to climb.

As for the man's family, although they are not outstanding, they have one thing that no one else can match, that is loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, and most importantly, they will have a princess soon.

In addition, the Zuo family has a clean and upright family tradition. Although they have illegitimate children, they have been well educated. Moreover, they only had other children after their children grew up. They are the kind of relatives that many upright families like.

Zuo Zhizhi looked at the lively guests and felt sorry that she was too young to go out and join in the fun. However, her parents and relatives had already made preparations and were just waiting to pick up the bride so that they could officially get married.

In particular, many of today's guests are famous and prominent families in the capital. Although they looked down on the Zuo family before, now the Zuo family has reached the upper class. Although they have not yet established a firm foothold, they are not objects that can be easily despised.

Therefore, many people came to curry favor with him, but some upper-class people sneered at it.

After all, the Zuo family's background is not high. He is only a fourth-rank Shaoqing of the Imperial Household Department. Although his ancestors had titles, because he is the second son, he has long been separated and lived in a separate house.

Now that I have to rely on one person to support the store, it is naturally extremely hard.

Zuo Zhizhi passed by and saw her parents chatting and laughing with other people. She couldn't help but sigh that she was not used to this world where imperial power was supreme.

Although I have been here for a while, this is the first time I have noticed it so clearly.

In the previous world, Zuo Zhizhi was already in college when she traveled through time. In addition, her relationship with her parents was not very good, so no one knew her personality.

Even if there are changes, they can be attributed to disasters and abnormal changes.

This time, perhaps in order to allow her to better accept her own identity, she was only a 7-year-old child when she traveled through time, and even now she is only 8 years old.

Although such a young child can go out to play on the street, he spends most of his time in the backyard. He just listens to people around him talking about strict rules, but he doesn't feel much of the reality in his heart.

In addition, he had been living a carefree and dissolute life for such a long time, so it was naturally impossible for him to react all at once.

This time, although it was a happy event in their family, I saw my parents always paying attention to other people's expressions when talking to them, and I understood the difference in status more deeply.

Zuo Zhizhi's father was a fourth-rank official at the Imperial Household Department. Although he was an official under the emperor and was responsible for managing the emperor's travel ceremonies, the current emperor rarely went out, so he was naturally not taken seriously.

The good marriages that my elder brother and elder sister had were all thanks to the accidental marriage arranged by His Majesty, which enabled our family to reach our current status.

It’s a pity that they are still far from being noble families.

Zuo Zhizhi's father, Zuo Hexin, was the second son of a small baronial family. Because he could not inherit the family title, he left home to work early.

Although the relationship between my father and my eldest brother Zuo Helin is not bad, their contact is not very close now. They just help each other because they are both officials in Beijing.

Zuo Zhizhi's mother was the eldest daughter of the Yong'an Earl's Mansion. Normally, it was impossible for her to marry the baron's second son. However, at that time, they were suspected by the emperor and disliked by the empress dowager, so she had to marry a lower-ranking wife to protect her family.

Therefore, the Zuo family is not considered a prominent family in the entire capital, but for some reason, my sister was chosen by His Majesty and is about to become the Fifth Princess. But no matter what, she cannot be underestimated.

For the eldest brother's wedding this time, the Zuo family can be said to have put all their efforts into working together to make sure that the wedding is done properly.

After all, this is a good time to become famous in the capital, not to mention my sister's wedding later, so I absolutely cannot be careless.

Not long after, the newlyweds arrived at the house, and they were married in the presence of everyone, and the bride was sent to the backyard.

The eldest brother finally had the opportunity to come out and talk to others. Although there were quite a few people present, today was his wedding day after all, so no one would care even if something was slightly inappropriate.

After a lively wedding, the Zuo family officially came into everyone's attention.

Although not accepted by everyone, he is not an unknown person after all.

After seeing off the guests, Zuo Zhizhi returned to her own courtyard. Although she was young and no one needed her help, the panic outside was indeed worrying.

Fortunately, everything has settled down, and after that it is a new life.

In the evening, Zuo Zhizhi had a simple meal and was about to go to sleep, but she found that her mother Deng Zijin had sent her personal nanny to confirm that everything was fine with her before leaving.

After a good night's sleep, Zuo Zhizhi put on cute and lively clothes early the next morning with the help of others. As for the hairstyle, she didn't have too many requirements because she was young. She just asked for a simple head shape with various decorations.

Although it is not expensive, it looks lively and cute.

There is no way. Today is the day when the new daughter-in-law comes into the family, so we must treat it with great care. Therefore, we must not be late today.

Early in the morning, his brother Zuo Qinghe brought his new wife in. Zhang Songlan was the granddaughter of the Grand Tutor. Needless to say, she was beautiful and well-mannered. She was well-educated and well-mannered, and was a daughter-in-law that everyone liked.

If it weren't for the recent turmoil in the imperial court, which made it afraid to let its granddaughter marry into another family, the writer would never have had the opportunity to marry the daughter of such a family.

Before marrying into the Zuo family, Zhang Songlan had apparently found out about the situation here.

Zuo Hexin and Deng Zijin, as elders, naturally sat in the hall. Zhang Songlan knelt down and offered them tea, "Please have some tea, father and mother."

The two took the tea from Zhang Songlan's hand, drank a little, then took out the gift that had been prepared long ago and handed it to them.

"Now that you have established a family and a career, you must stay true to your original intentions and live in harmony. Only then can your home be peaceful."

Zhang Songlan and Zuo Qinghe agreed one by one, and then went to meet their brothers and sisters at home.
