Chapter 370: Brother 2 gets beaten
Chapter 370: Brother 2 gets beaten
The result of mocking his own father was that Zhang Wenling was chased and beaten halfway across the mansion by the strong and thriving Third Old Master with a dragon-headed cane.
Zhang Wenling turned around and brandished his jeweled gold belt, chasing after Zhang Xueting, who looked most like his father, and beating him, causing half of the mansion to become lively.
The secret guards, imperial guards, and servants were used to it. They would smile and make way for the male masters in the mansion twice a day, and were always ready to make way again when the Third Madam chased the Third Master with a whip.
However, this time, Third Madam Yang not only did not help the second son to vent his anger, but also smiled and said, "Well done."
This was the second time Zhang Xueting was beaten after he told the Third Old Master and Zhang Wenling the cause of Zhang Xueming's illness.
Last time when Zhang Xueming was at home, Zhang Wenling only hit him a few times before stopping. This time when Zhang Xueming was not at home, Zhang Wenling was not so polite.
Zhang Xueting knelt in front of his mother and felt like the sky was falling.
Yang dismissed the servants and looked at him with a fake smile. She just felt that there was nothing about this son that she liked: "At the beginning, the clan made a careful selection and thought that you, the two boys from the seventh room and Zhang Qiu were better. We can rest assured and let you get close to Zhao Zhao.
I never expected that the other three were fine, and the people in the tribe who were not chosen were fine, but my son was the one who had the problem. "
Zhang Xueting looked at his always loving mother and saw that her expression was almost the same as Zhang Wenling's. He also took out her golden whip from the inner room.
He shuddered, but didn't dare to hide. He straightened his back and waited to be beaten.
Zhang Wenling was very proud. He stood aside and watched his wife scold her son. He even added fuel to the fire: "Of course, who would have thought that he could be so unreliable? At the beginning, you repeatedly told him to take good care of his sister.
What was the result? His sister was badly cheated by him, and he had to wait for the boy from the sixth room who had just returned to recognize his relatives to remind him that he didn’t know what went wrong.
The clan has been in turmoil for the past few years just to investigate this matter. After all the fuss, it turns out that the culprit is hiding in our house. "
Neither the father nor the son gave up the third old master.
If the truth is revealed, the Third Old Master will not be beaten by his daughter-in-law, but it is certain that his food, clothing, housing and transportation will not be as satisfactory in the future.
Zhang Xueting was whipped five more times by his mother. The clothes on his back were torn and he grimaced in pain.
Yang didn't feel sorry for him at all, and said, "Just wait. When your eldest brother, third brother, and fourth brother come back, you will have a good life."
After sending her son away and closing the door, she turned to Zhang Wenling with the whip in hand and said, "Are you still laughing? Your son has caused such a big mess, forcing Zhao Zhao to flee to the south for more than two years. Don't you have any responsibility at all?
If you had looked in the mirror less often and kept a closer eye on your stupid son, he wouldn't have been able to do things behind your back and harm my poor daughter like that."
Zhang Wenling noticed that his wife's attitude was not right, so he turned around quickly, hugged his head to protect his face with his experience, and showed his back to her.
He didn't dodge, so Yang lost her strength in whipping him. She stopped after five hits and threw the whip on the table. There was a "bang" sound, which startled Zhang Wenling so much that he shivered.
Looking back, he saw that Yang had already sat down. He didn't care about the big hole in her clothes on her back, and hurried over to pour her tea: "Drink some tea and calm down. Madam is right. No matter how wrong you are, it's all your husband's fault. But, when Zhao Zhao comes back..."
Like a big dog that has made a mistake, it stares at its owner eagerly.
Yang didn't agree at once. She took a sip of tea and said unhappily, "I owed you and your son a debt in my last life. I will just follow you around and clean up your mess in this life."
She came out holding a handkerchief and pretended to wipe her tears, saying in a sad voice: "Poor my Zhaozhao, the good days didn't last for a few days. When he was young, you forced him to learn this and that. When he was a little older, he worked like a slave for your Zhang family.
At the age of twelve, he was taken out on a border patrol by the unruly Erzi. He was injured and dared not go home, so he hid outside and waited for his injury to heal..."
He mixed up right and wrong and brought up old issues, which made Zhang Wenling feel overwhelmed.
He quickly apologized with a smile, "Yes, yes, our Zhao Zhao has suffered so much. When she gets married, in addition to the share from the public treasury, I will add one-third of the things in my private treasury to her dowry."
Yang pretended not to hear and cried even harder.
Zhang Wenling hardened his heart and said, "Half, I'll give her half from my private vault."
Seeing that Yang was not about to give up, she placed the key to her private storehouse in front of her and added, "You don't have to wait until the wedding. Just pick the good ones and have them moved to her storehouse."
Not yet.
He gritted his teeth and gave away the benefits he had just received from his biological father: "I will have someone clear out the five-story courtyard next to the Gong family tomorrow morning and hand the title deed to her. She can live there as long as she likes."
Yang's expression changed in an instant. She wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and waved her hand to drive him away: "Okay, you go live in the east wing for a few days and don't hang around me. You don't need to worry about Zhao Zhao coming back. Bring the house deed here later and I'll send someone to handle the transfer tomorrow morning."
Zhang Wenling was ruthlessly kicked out.
The wind blew, and a few leaves slowly fell from the trees in the courtyard, making his back look even more desolate.
The next day, Zhang Xueming received the house deed and a letter sent by Yang.
The letter was written in a very literary style, but the meaning was very simple when translated: My dear, I helped you empty your father's private storehouse. Your storehouse can no longer hold the things, so I asked someone to vacate two empty rooms to hold them. Please come back sometime to take a look. The things are just sitting there, so you should ask a craftsman to build a few more storehouses.
Zhang Xueming was amused. After a moment, he handed the visitor two wooden boxes full of medicine bottles and a reply letter.
When Yang received the reply letter, she opened it and was delighted.
There were two kinds of medicine that Zhang Xueming sent over.
One is the "Growth of All Things" that she used when she first entered the palace. It can dissolve at least half of a warrior's internal strength to replenish the foundation, eliminate hidden injuries, and widen the meridians and dantian. Non-warriors can also strengthen their bodies and prolong their lives by taking it.
Special instructions to the current head of the family (the third old master) to take it.
What he said implied that he hoped the old man would not mind the minor side effect of being drowsy for two or three days, and would quickly take medicine to make his body stronger, so as to protect Zhang Xueming, the "useless" heir, from wind and rain for a few more decades.
He also explained that portions for other tribesmen and female relatives were already being prepared, so he was asked not to worry.
The other is the "Pillow Without Worry" medicine which can clear away internal heat, calm the mind and aid in sleeping. Take it every night before going to bed to ensure a sound sleep until dawn without dreams or worries. Since Gong Yuanzheng said that the Zhang family members were driven crazy by the war, she would treat it as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Acquired mental illnesses are mostly caused by excessive negative emotions, which lead to spleen and stomach disorders, which lead to physical discomfort, and physical discomfort will stimulate more negative emotions. This vicious cycle aggravates the condition.
Therefore, as long as you ensure the quality of sleep, eat three meals a day regularly, clear your heat and calm your mind, and think less, "there is no acquired disease that cannot be solved."
Yang covered her mouth and laughed happily.
After laughing enough, she took out the medicine that Zhang Xueming had prepared for her from the box, found Zhang Wenling, and gave him the remaining medicine along with the medicine box and the reply letter.
"This is Zhao Zhao's gift to his family. If it is not used or given to someone else, with Zhao Zhao's medical skills..."
Just give me a look and you will experience it yourself.
Yang happily went to the yard to rock in a rocking chair and bask in the sun.
Now that the compensation for Zhao Zhao has been obtained and the pressure is on the Zhang family father and son, she can just watch the show.
