Passerby's Guide to Eating Watermelons

The eldest sister Zuo Qing'an's wedding date has been set, and she has no bad thoughts about this younger sister. Although they may not spend much time together, Zhang Songlan can control the next generation of the Zuo family.

After all, it is better to marry a virtuous wife. If she is not virtuous, the disaster will spread to the descendants and the family will never have peace.

Therefore, everyone did not have too many complaints about Zhang Songlan, the daughter-in-law. They just hoped that she could quickly gain a foothold in this turbulent time and help them resist the outside world.

Zuo Qingyu is only 12 years old now. Although he is already a half-grown child, when he sees his sister-in-law, he doesn't have any special emotions except happiness.

As for Zuo Zhizhi, she is only 8 years old now. She just needs to accept the gifts from her sister-in-law and there is no need to worry at all.

After the recognition ceremony was over, everyone began to rest.

After all, I have been extremely busy these past few months, and now I can finally take a good rest.

Deng Zijin saw that Zhang Songlan had gotten married yesterday, so he didn't ask her to come and stand by to observe the etiquette. Instead, he told her to go and rest quickly.

After everyone else left, Zuo Zhizhi ran to Deng Zijin and asked, "Mom, when can I go out and play?"

Deng Zijin gently tapped Zuo Zhizhi's forehead. "You're such a grown-up girl, why don't you behave like a decent person? You just want to go out and play every day!"

"Look, your sister is about to get married, why don't you stay home and accompany her?"

Zuo Zhizhi hugged her arm and acted coquettishly. She was already very skilled in this process. There was nothing she could do. It was so difficult to go out in ancient times!

"But my sister is embroidering her wedding dress, and I would only cause more trouble if I went over there!"

"What else can I say? The other girls are all proficient in knitting and needlework, but you, a rascal, you either prick your hand or drop the needle when I ask you to use it. You never seem to be quiet at all!"

Zuo Zhizhi curled her lips in helplessness. Although she was already 7 years old when she got here, a year later, her knitting and needlework skills had not improved at all.

To be precise, this body has no talent at all. When Zuo Zhizhi first came in, she was hoping to inherit the original owner's needlework skills, so that she could have a skill.

Unexpectedly, picking up the needle and thread felt so unfamiliar and not at all familiar, which made her wish go unfulfilled.

Even if I wanted to practice again, I just couldn't get the hang of it. I held the tiny embroidery needle in my hand, but couldn't find the right spot to insert the needle.

Splitting the silk thread into more than 10 parts would make anyone's eyes dizzy, not to mention threading the needle and embroidering. This is absolutely impossible for her.

After a brief attempt, Zuo Zhizhi decided to give up.

According to his background in this life, although he is not rich, he is definitely not short of food and clothing. As long as there are others serving him, there is no need for him to fight.

Although Deng Zijin was a little worried, he softened his heart and let Zuo Zhizhi go when he saw her acting coquettishly.

So apart from the simplest cutting, Zuo Zhizhi knew nothing else.

Deng Zijin frowned. "Your sister is getting married soon. Even if you can't help, it would be nice to be by her side. You two should go and chat more. You won't have such an opportunity again in the future!"

Seeing that Deng Zijin refused to give in, Zuo Zhizhi had no choice but to give up.

After all, there is a wedding to be held this year, so it is understandable that she is not allowed to go out at this time. In addition, her mother has other things to do, so Zuo Zhizhi can only go to find her sister.

As the eldest daughter, Zuo Qing'an and Zuo Qinghe are twins, a boy and a girl, but they look completely different.

Zuo Qing'an is the most typical classical beauty, with an oval face, willow-shaped eyebrows, and slightly curved lips, showing endless tenderness.

The person Zuo Zhizhi likes most after traveling through time is this sister. Although there is a big age gap between the two, the sister is very gentle.

When Zuo Qing'an saw Zuo Zhizhi coming over, he immediately put down what he was holding and asked her to sit down and have some tea.

Zuo Zhizhi turned her head and saw that the house had already started to be cleaned up. After all, the wedding date had been set, and the wedding would take place in three months.

My sister is marrying the fifth prince. Although she is about to set up her own residence and does not need to live in the palace, as a daughter-in-law of the royal family, she naturally has countless rules to learn.

Therefore, from the time the marriage was arranged until now, Zuo Qing'an has had no free time at all.

Either she cooperated with her family to prepare the dowry, or she prepared her own wedding dress. Of course, the most important thing was to learn the rules from the nanny sent from the palace.

Fortunately, I have learned most of the rules now, so I have time to chat with her.

Seeing Zuo Zhizhi looking unhappy, Zuo Qingan stretched out his finger and tapped her forehead, "You are so young, why are you frowning? You should be happier!"

"Alas!" Zuo Zhizhi sighed exaggeratedly, shaking her head like an adult. "My eldest brother is getting married, and he's going to be busy with his own affairs. I don't know what my eldest sister-in-law is like yet, so it's not good to disturb her directly. Even you've been embroidering your wedding dress in the house the whole time, and I'm so bored at home!"

"You are so young, why do you have so many worries?" Zuo Qing'an shook her head. She knew that her sister liked the hustle and bustle outside, but now was not the time to go out and play, so she could only let her stay at home.

"Maybe later. I still need to prepare my wedding dress, and the nanny will be here soon."

Zuo Zhizhi asked curiously, "Haven't we already learned the rules?"

You have to know that since the marriage was arranged, Zuo Qing'an has never stopped and it took him half a year just to learn the rules.

What’s even more abominable is that during this period, Zuo Zhizhi actually wanted to learn along with me.

Therefore, since I came here, before I could even figure out the current situation, I was forced to learn the rules from my sister.

They even call it "this is something every girl should learn!"

Zuo Zhizhi shook her head in disdain. After all, the Zuo family already had one princess, so it was naturally impossible for them to have a second one.

Therefore, even if I learned these rules, there would be no time to use them.

But since my whole family was watching, I had no choice but to go with them.

After all, it would be bad if you happened to meet princes, nobles, or royal relatives, and were punished for violating the rules.

It can be said that the previous six months were Zuo Zhizhi's nightmare.

He is clearly a child and should be at a carefree age, but unexpectedly he is forced to learn boring rules every day.

What's even more disgusting is that these rules have no human rights at all. According to her status and rank, she has to kneel down and bow to everyone she meets, with no time to rest at all.

This was just a simple greeting to others, there was nothing interesting about it, which made Zuo Zhizhi extremely bored.

Seeing Zuo Zhizhi's wrinkled face, Zuo Qing'an couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Okay, we've learned the rules. We're just going to listen to stories this time!"

"Really?"

Zuo Zhizhi looked at Zuo Qing'an in disbelief, and only felt relieved when she nodded.
