Chapter 555: The guest becomes the master

Views:

Zhang Shou emphasized the two words "please" to Ah Liu. Zhu Ying knew Ah Liu's temper, and Princess Yongping had heard of it, so they naturally understood it. However, the Third Prince was not like the Fourth Prince, who had personal experience, and was completely confused. As for Hong, she was a very perceptive person. She had heard that there was a very powerful young master around Zhang Shou, so she took a deep breath inwardly.

It turns out that if Zhang Shou hadn't said this, the young man would not have gone to ask for help, but would have directly kidnapped Yang Zhan

Although she had many questions, she did not know how to ask them out loud. In addition, the Third Prince and Princess Yongping asked her many questions. At this time, Zhang Shou and Zhu Ying went to the window hand in hand to look at the scenery and talk without any hesitation. She could only deal with it independently.

Fortunately, Hong had been well-read since childhood and had a solid foundation. She also had the experience of dealing with people and cleaning up the mess for her father over the years, so she could handle it well. However, when Princess Yongping suddenly asked a question, she couldn't help but change her expression. Because the question hit her heart, and under the focused gaze of the Third Prince, she couldn't even avoid it.

"Madam Hong, I think you should be like me and my third brother, you have been educated by your parents since childhood, and Mr. Hong is very conservative in his words and deeds. Things like women's education should not be within his daily consideration. Therefore, under his influence, you should be more like the filial daughters and chaste women in the biographies of women, and not someone who pretends to obey your father but actually disobeys him."

Speaking of lip service, Princess Yongping bowed slightly as if apologetically, but still said bluntly: "I am a bit blunt, but this is not only my concern, but also the concern of my mother, father and grandmother. A person cannot be born out of thin air. Even a child prodigy like Zhongyong will become ordinary after meeting foolish and short-sighted elders."

Zhang Shou, who was standing at the window, heard these words clearly and couldn't help but sneer. Why did he feel that Princess Yongping's words seemed to be not only addressed to Hong, but also to him

Sure enough, the next moment, he noticed Zhu Ying leaning close to his ear and whispering, "That girl Yongping is talking about you on purpose, right? You grew up like this on your own, does that mean there are no geniuses in the world? You are smart, studious and motivated, and Aunt Wu always thinks of you. Even if an elder like her has never been to school, she is much better than that old Taoist priest Hong Shan!"

Zhu Ying's voice was very soft, and it was obvious that the eldest lady was not as self-centered as outsiders thought, and did not want Hong to hear her criticizing someone else's father behind his back. However, Zhang Shou glanced at Hong, who looked calm, and knew that Princess Yongping's straightforward question was forcing this talented woman from Jiangxi to tell the truth.

Speaking of which, this girl's having a father like that is actually much more pitiful than his nominal background!

After keeping her eyelids drooped for a long time, Hong finally raised her head again, looking calm and fearless.

"Since the princess has asked, I dare not say nothing. My mother was born into a scholarly family, well versed in poetry, literature, etiquette and music. She married my father at the age of sixteen, took care of the household chores, and was filial to her parents-in-law. Later, I was born. However, because I was a difficult birth, although she was lucky enough to survive, she could no longer have children. My father was not a lustful person in his life, and he firmly refused the elders' request to take concubines and maids to continue his descendants, claiming that he could adopt me."
