Chapter 001 Strange Dream

"Miss, Miss..." The woman in a half-old jacket fell anxiously by the bed and whispered to the master who did not move.

Although the Zhang family is not a famous family, the rules are extremely heavy. The young lady never stays in bed. I don't know what's wrong with her today. She can't wake up. She doesn't feel hot when she touches her forehead, and her breath is quite stable, not like she is sick.

How good is this? The master came back today. If the young lady goes late, I'm afraid she will be reprimanded.

Miss is not favored, but she can't be rejected anymore.

Thinking of this, the woman went to twist a cold handkerchief, bit her teeth and applied it to the face of the little girl who had not yet opened.

"Ah..." In the freezing weather, the cold handkerchief almost jumped out of bed.

The woman knelt down by the bed, in a hurry, but she was not disturbed. "Miss, forgive me. It's not early for the master to return today. Please get up and change your clothes quickly."

Zhang Hanqiu looked at the woman for a long time, glanced at the room, looked down at his hand, and subconsciously moved his fingers. There were no scars, his little finger was flexible, and he was not injured at all.

So, did she just have a long, extremely unpleasant dream?

"Miss..."

"Your mother."

"Yes." Your mother lowered her eyebrows, thinking that the young lady had something to tell her, and listened carefully.

But after a call, there is no more follow-up.

After a long time, Zhang Hanqiu tentatively touched Ru Niang's hand, which was warm.

In the dream, your mother fell into the lake the day after she got married. When she found it, she was soaked white and cold all over her heart.

Fortunately, it was just a dream.

Ru Niang looked up in surprise. Miss, this is... What's wrong?

Wait, now is not the time to think about this. Your mother got up and lifted the quilt, put the clothes she had prepared for the master one by one, and whispered with a sigh, "Today, when the master comes back, you should also be active. If it goes on like this, the master will forget that in addition to the second lady and the This eldest daughter, don't always say that it's also your sister-in-law. It's always different if it's not the same mother's belly.

Thinking of the young lady's sincerity to the two sisters and brothers, Ru Niang sighed and finally did not continue to talk.

Her young lady is good at everything, but she is too good. She is kind-hearted, and her ears are soft. Anyone with a little scheming can hold her.

This is not the first time to say such a thing. Zhang Hanqiu clearly remembers what kind of expression and tone he used to reply to your mother, and what he was thinking in his heart.

But now, but after one night, she can't put on the kind of attitude that is good for everyone.

Looking at herself in the bronze mirror, Zhang Hanqiu tried to evoke the corners of her mouth. This should be the simplest action for her, but it was particularly difficult to do at this time.

It's just a dream. She can't be affected. Zhang Hanqiu said to herself in her heart over and over again.

The pain and heartache experienced in the dream seemed to have not faded after she woke up, and the pain was too clear.

Those people she has never seen before are clearly vivid, as if they have really faced it.

"Miss, you can eat some pastry mats first, and you will have lunch soon. You can also eat more with the master."

"Dad needs me to accompany me. It's enough to have two sisters and three brothers." The sharp words were inadvertently spoken.

Your mother's action stopped. How could the lady who has always been indisputable...

"Miss, is someone angry with you? Although the wife is no longer there, the Zhang family has the rules of the Zhang family. If you can't tolerate such a person, even if you go to the master, you will be reasonable. You tell the old slave that the old slave will not be good.

Zhang Hanqiu took a comb and combed his drooping hair. Instead of answering this, he reminded Ru's mother who forgot the business, "It's going to be late."

As soon as Ru Niang patted her forehead, she pulled a hanging bun and put a few brightly colored bead flowers on it. She looked left and right and nodded with satisfaction, "Miss, it's okay."

He nodded faintly to himself in the mirror. Zhang Hanqiu got up and walked out. When he stepped out of the door, he felt cold.

Ru Niang trotted to catch up from behind, and a big coat fell on her shoulder. She subconsciously closed it up a little, looked around, and didn't see anyone.

It used to be lively here, but I don't know when it was so deserted.

The memory precipitated in the depths of her mind seemed to be suddenly activated. The gentle and beautiful mother hugged her, and listened to people's reply with a smile in her eyes. The maid was busy and did not go in and out, her footsteps were light, and her eyebrows were soft.

My mother passed away when she was less than three years old. Over the years, she rarely thought of it. Her mother's appearance was even more blurred, but at this time, the face that appeared in her mind was so clear.

Before today, she never doubted the trick of her mother's death, but now, what she experienced in her dream is not sure. Mother... Is she really gone? Why did she see a woman who looked eight like her and fell asleep on her grave when her soul could not be reborn after her death in her dream?

If there is no relationship between the two, she doesn't believe it.

At that time, she followed her back home. She remembered that road!

In those years, when she had nothing to rely on, the house that ordinary people could not easily enter was the place she often went to. Although she could not enter because of the gossip hanging on the gate, it was enough to record several places she would go.

If this dream is to remind her of something, she will definitely figure it out!

The Zhang family can only be regarded as a new second-rate family in Wuyang City at best. It has only been established for more than ten years, but the family is rich and noble, with hundreds of maids and servants.

Who in Wuyang City does not know that Zhang Zetian, the head of the Zhang family, is highly appreciated by the King of Wuyang. Even if those profound nobles look down on him, no one doubts his ability.

If he can be promoted to a nobleman in white, how can he be an easy person? It will take him more than ten years to get everything he has today. Who knows how far he can get in the next few decades?

For capable people, no matter who they have brains, they won't rush to offend.

This also indirectly caused the Zhang family, whether it was the master or the servant, to have some eyes higher than the top, and they thought that no one dared to provoke the master.

Thinking of yesterday's self, Zhang Hanqiu couldn't help laughing.

- She didn't find out that although she was still in a trance at this time, she was no longer as ignorant as yesterday.

When the master and servant arrived, Zhang Zetian happened to get off the carriage.

Her eyes fell on her without temperature for a moment and then moved to another pair of children.

Zhang Qiaoer, the second lady of the Zhang family, saluted forward with a smile and said with a smile, "Daughter has seen Dad, Dad. Next time you leave home and come back, don't let someone send a letter home in advance. From yesterday to now, my mother has been looking forward to her neck."

The beautiful woman on one side blushed with shame, glanced at her daughter, and saluted with all kinds of amorous feelings, "My father-in-law, you have worked hard all the way. Is everything going well?"

Zhang Zetian softened his eyes and nodded slightly with an air, "Well, I went to see the Lord before I went home. The Lord was very satisfied."

The woman was overjoyed and glanced at her eyes, as if she had only seen the existence of her stepdaughter at this time. She quickly turned around and waved to her, "Sister, come here quickly. What are you doing standing so far away? So is your child. This is your father, not someone else, and I'm afraid

The same scene as the dream and the same dialogue made Zhang Hanqiu stunned and heard his stepmother's words before he came to his senses.

There is no need to think too much, the body has reacted first.

As usual countless times, Zhang Hanqiu stood close to his stepmother and greeted his father with hidden fear, "Dad, hello."

Zhang Zetian nod his head slightly and raised his foot to go in without giving her a look.

Several people followed behind.

Zhang Qiaoer slowed down and waited for her. It seemed to be soft, but it was enough for several people present to hear clearly, "Sister, why are you so late? If your father enters the door, your father will be annoyed with you again. Don't do this again in the future."

What a sweet step-sister, Zhang Hanqiu sneered in her heart. How stupid she used to feel that this step-sister was towards her.

Obviously, her father didn't mention her late arrival, but she deliberately mentioned it at this time. How obvious her intentions were. How did she answer in her dream?

"Won't you help me?"

Zhang Qiaoer's eyebrows stared vividly, "Other people's families are sisters taking care of their sisters. Why is it the other way around us?"

"Who told me to have the most intimate sister! This is a blessing that no one else can ask for.

"You also know that this is your blessing. People cherish it. Don't forget it at any time in the future." At the beginning of Zhang Zetian's words, Zhang Hanqiu lowered his head.

No one cares. Everyone in the house knows her fear of Zhang Zetian.

So no one saw the panic on Zhang Hanqiu's face at this time, the hatred flashed alternately, and finally returned to the calm expression change.

Zhang Zetian looked down on her timid appearance. After saying this, he shook his head and ignored her. As he walked, he bowed his head and talked to his son Zhang Jiabao.

Zhang Qiaoer leaned over and was getting tired of holding her hand, but she was shocked by her wet palm. She quickly raised it and looked at it. Contempt flashed quickly in her eyes, and soon replied to her simple and harmless delicate appearance. "Sister, why are you so afraid of Dad? Dad is not fierce at all."

This sentence is not in the dream. Zhang Qiaoer should not mention it...

"Sister, if you get married in the future, don't allow me to play. If you don't allow it, I won't let you marry someone else's house."

Then give you a chance to poison me and let me die of a little cold?

Zhang Hanqiu lowered his head slightly and said exactly the same words as in his dream, "How long will this happen? You think too far."

"It's not far away." Zhang Qiaoer thought she was shy, so she smiled and came closer to her ear and said, "Yesterday, someone came to propose marriage. I secretly heard the matchmaker say that the man was awesome. He will definitely be a senior official like her father in the future. My mother is really biased."

"You two, when you can't speak well, you have to stop there and say, hurry up."

Zhang Hanqiu looked at his voice and looked at his stepmother Wu's smiling eyes.

Is it true that the mother-daughter relationship for more than ten years is all fake?
