Chapter 512: Chapter 507: Troublesome Matters When Returning to Hometown 42 [Mass Release 36]

——————

The Yan Jinxian, who was on Yan Jinxian’s mind, was now looking at Zhou Yizhou with a shy face, while in front of them, the Zhou Family’s parents and Zhang Zhiguo were discussing the wedding arrangements.

Zhang Zhiguo had an indifferent look with no joy, nodding at whatever the other party said.

Father Zhou and Mrs. Zhou glanced at their silly and happy young son, then saw Yan Jinxian with her head hung low, looking embarrassed and blushing profusely. Out of satisfaction with Yan Jinxian and even though they thought little of the Zhang family, they didn’t say much.

The two families politely discussed the bride price and then brought up the wedding banquet.

"Dear in-laws, we’ve been thinking that when Xianxian leaves her family to get married, we could set up thirty tables directly here..."

"Wait a moment, Mrs. Zhou, there is no need to have a banquet here since Shanni is getting married," Zhang Zhiguo suddenly interrupted Mrs. Zhou’s words.

"Eh?" Mrs. Zhou didn’t know how to respond right away, but she saw Yan Jinxian’s face turn pale, her eyes reddening as she looked at Zhang Zhiguo.

Yan Jinxian was already displeased upon hearing Zhang Zhiguo call her by her true name, and seeing him refuse Mrs. Zhou only made her face grow paler.

Because she already knew what that despicable old Zhang Zhiguo was going to say next! And her, having to act as a docile woman, she didn’t dare to raise her voice in anger!

Really, no appreciation for the face given!

"This..." Zhou Yizhou, seeing his beloved wife’s expression, was not pleased, and when his gaze met Zhang Zhiguo’s, it was somewhat unfriendly.

Zhang Zhiguo, however, had no reaction, only glanced at the daughter who should now be called Zhang Shanni, and said to Father Zhou:

"My late wife passed away only half a year ago, it’s inappropriate to hold a banquet. Xianxian does not need to leave from here to marry either; after all, you two have already registered your marriage, so having a banquet or not doesn’t matter."

With these words, Zhang Zhiguo caused everyone in the Zhou family to freeze.

The news of Lin Zhaodi’s death had come a few months ago.

Although Zhang Zhiguo didn’t want to acknowledge such a wife, legally, even if he and Lin Zhaodi didn’t have a marriage certificate, the ’fact marriage’ was there, so he could only legally receive Lin Zhaodi’s body and then carelessly chose a remote hill to bury her.

As for Lin Zhaodi’s family? They had long since treated her as dead and didn’t bother with the matter.

At this moment, Yan Jinxian’s complexion was already ashen, her hands tightly clenched, sweating profusely. Seeing this, Zhou Yizhou became angry on the spot and lashed out at Zhang Zhiguo:

"In that case, we might as well bring Xianxian back home now. After all, she is now a member of the Zhou family. Since you insist on mourning your late wife, we will take our leave."

Zhang Zhiguo was straightforward, nodded, and said: "No need to see us out." Then he returned to his room.

This left the Zhou family even more annoyed. What an attitude!

To bolster her own credibility and project the image of a ’Little White Flower,’ Yan Jinxian had always described Lin Zhaodi as helpless and innocent to the outside world.

Because at that time, she was just a baby one month old; she couldn’t voice anything, nor did she have a choice!

Many people thought that, indeed, how could they blame Yan Jinxian, who was just an infant at the time?!

Zhou Yizhou was all the more indulgent towards Yan Jinxian because of this.

Yan Jinxian, looking faint, was supported by Zhou Yizhou onto the sedan. Mrs. Zhou, seeing her young daughter-in-law hurt like this, also shook her head and sighed:

"Xiao Xian, don’t be mad at your birth father. He’s a simple farmer, uneducated, doesn’t grasp the complexities of social interactions, and can miss crucial points. In the future, just focus on being a good wife in our Zhou family, take care of yourself and the baby, give birth to a healthy grandson for the Zhou family, and we will never treat you unfairly."

At this point, Mrs. Zhou couldn’t help but feel displeased when she thought of that woman from the Fan Family. And considering her second son’s indifferent gaze, she felt that in this lifetime, her only comfort would be Brother Xuan’s filial piety.

When Mrs. Zhou spoke of being treated unfairly, it was more like she wouldn’t ’look down upon.’ As a lady of high status, Yan Jinxian clearly sensed the hidden sharpness in Mrs. Zhou’s words!

But now she was in a position of weakness and could only bow her head, sobbing, "Mother, I will listen to you."

Right now, the most important thing was to return to Beijing, her ultimate goal!

"That’s enough, Mother, no more. Xiao Xian is still young, and she’s been treated poorly by Old Man Zhang, she’s upset. Don’t add to my son’s troubles!" Zhou Yizhou saw the young wife behind the carriage crying, her eyes red and her face pale with sorrow and pain, and he blurted out without thinking.

"Mother, don’t listen to Brother Xuan, it’s my good fortune that you are willing to teach me! I am still young, I don’t understand much, and I’m not very familiar with my relatives here. But once we return to Beijing, it will be better. My grandfather..."

Yan Jinxian stopped herself when she realized that she had spoken too definitively, making her future path difficult; she feigned a low cry, "After all, he raised me from a child, he certainly won’t be..."

"Yes, yes, Xiao Xian, don’t worry. You were raised in Beijing, even the hardest heart couldn’t be cruel to an ignorant young girl like you. Rest assured, when our family returns to Beijing, just sweet talk Grandfather Yan, every family has its issues, but none that can’t be resolved!"

Originally, Mrs. Zhou wasn’t pleased with her son’s words, but upon hearing Yan Jinxian’s reply, she immediately brightened up with a smile, relieved to finally have a daughter-in-law of noble birth and hoping for no more complications.

As for the Yan Family still being angry with Yan Jinxian, that was only a matter of time. Now that Lin Zhaodi, the main troublemaker, had died, Qi Chunlan had been thrown into disarray, and Yan Jinsi had recovered, the family was joyful.

When they return to Beijing, if Yan Jinxian humbles herself, would it be possible to hate the child they had raised for eighteen years for a lifetime?

Putting herself in their shoes, Mrs. Zhou felt it was not possible.

The most important thing was that Yan Jinsu was now living well, and according to Mrs. Zhou’s inquiries, it was only a matter of time before the Yan Family forgave Yan Jinxian.

"Mhm, Grandfather loves me the most, he won’t abandon me..." Yan Jinxian said, crying with a face full of sorrow.

Thinking of her life before the incident and comparing it with life afterward, Yan Jinxian couldn’t wait to return to Beijing as soon as possible.

However, she couldn’t enter the Yan house; Yan Dongsheng’s command had made even the lowest servants unafraid of her! Moreover, she had offended the Zhou family as well, and without a legitimate reason, she dared not return to Beijing.

Young Master Zhou of the Zhou family had said himself—if he saw her again in Beijing, he would be unfriendly to her!

Thinking of that formidable, influential, and strikingly handsome man now despising her so much—all because of Yan Jinsu!

If only she didn’t exist, how wonderful that would be...

At this thought, Yan Jinxian clenched her fists tightly, tears streaming down her face.

"Ah, ah, Xiao Xian, stop your tears, lest my sweet grandchild starts crying too. What problem can’t be overcome? We’ll take it slowly, ah~" Mrs. Zhou’s heart was still unsettled, and seeing Yan Jinxian’s act as if some frustration was stuck in her chest.

But her youngest son was so impatient that he seemed eager to move her aside to sit down himself: "Xianxian, don’t worry, when we return to Beijing, Elder Yan will surely come around~~ Ah, stop your crying, or our little Princess will soon be making a fuss~"

"Hey, Yizhou, stop saying nonsense, she’s clearly my beloved grandson, and it’s a boy!" Mrs. Zhou, already displeased, heard him coddling his wife in such a way, she felt that her beloved son was being snatched away!

Meanwhile, Yan Jinxian saw Mrs. Zhou’s face fall and thought to herself: Trouble!

At this moment, Yan Jinxian wished she could knock on Zhou Yizhou’s foolish head to see if it was empty! She hoped it wasn’t too late to remedy the situation now...
