Their family does not rely on Mr. Zheng's salary to make a living.
Mr. Zheng had the family property divided, Mrs. Wan had the dowry, and the provincial governor was a student of Mr. Zheng's father.
In the provincial capital, Wan relied on her "senior brother" to acquire a lot of property.
Therefore, although the Zheng family's life seems ordinary, it is actually very particular.
Wan just doesn't like to show off.
Because she liked to take care of her sick husband personally, there were not many servants in her house, and it looked like an ordinary small family.
Not to mention outsiders, even Wan's own daughter, Zheng Wanjun, always thought that her family was just content with a small fortune.
She had no idea that her grandfather, uncle, and cousin of the same generation had all served as officials in the court.
My grandfather held a high position.
I ate the soft and glutinous steamed cake in small bites. Uh, what steamed cake? It was obviously rice cake.
Zheng Wanjun secretly complained.
"Mother, what kind of family are these new neighbors next door?"
This miserable fictional dynasty has few entertainment activities.
In addition, she was born with a fetal rupture, so she was a baby when she was born.
When he was seven years old, the farthest distance he had ever been was the Baiyun Academy in front of him.
Her parents and brothers kept a close eye on her.
Zheng Wanjun could understand this. In ancient times, there was no surveillance or DNA, so once a child was abducted, it was basically difficult to find him or her.
Although the families in this world are not wealthy and powerful, they are content with a small fortune.
Her parents were a loving couple, her brother acted like the eldest brother, there was no preference for boys over girls in the family, and she was even more favored than her younger brother.
She felt what it meant to be the apple of one's eye.
Zheng Wanjun really likes this kind of native family.
She didn't want to be targeted by kidnappers just because of her momentary playfulness and end up in a miserable situation.
As a girl who is familiar with online novels, Zheng Wanjun does not quite believe in the Mary Sue heroines in online novels, but believes more in "Zhen Yinglian" in the Dream of Red Mansions.
Zheng Wanjun knew very well that survival in ancient times was not easy.
Being a woman and a child will only make it more difficult.
So, even if her parents didn't control or stop her, she would not rashly leave home and take risks!
Being locked up at home all day with no entertainment, Zheng Wanjun could only pass the time by gossiping.
"The neighbor's surname is Zhao. The mistress, Gu, is a widow who is still in mourning with her two sons."
"She seems to have a good relationship with her husband's family. She even has her husband's nephews and nieces helping her..."
Mrs. Wan sat in front of Zheng Wanjun and began to share the gossip from next door with her daughter.
During the casual chat, Wan would also subtly give advice and guidance: "Then Gu, you must have good character!"
She is able to remain faithful to her husband and get along well with her in-laws, so she should not be a mean or sarcastic person.
Zheng Wanjun secretly curled his lips.
She had not seen Gu Qingcheng, but the words "widowed mother" and "son" made her think of some bloody stories in later generations.
Netizens have concluded that sons raised by single mothers are most likely to be mama's boys.
Moreover, some widowed mothers may have psychological distortions and directly regard their sons as their husbands.
On the surface, she looks lonely and pitiful, but once she has a wife, she will make trouble and bully her in all kinds of ways.
Things like sleeping between daughter-in-law and son, deliberately instigating son to beat his wife, and acting in front of his son.
Later generations almost completely destroyed these top-quality products.
Zheng Wanjun wouldn’t say he was brainwashed, but he did develop some prejudice.
Before she even took a formal photo with Gu Qingcheng, she had already labeled Gu Qingcheng as mentally twisted.
Gu Qingcheng: ...excuse me? He's just a neighbor, why are you imagining so much?
Huoshui:...Ahem, she is the official match of the male protagonist Zhao Qingyun, the female lead!
Gu Qingcheng didn’t know what the little girl next door was thinking, nor did she care.
After looking at the return gift from the Zheng family, steamed buns with white flour and meat filling, Gu Qingcheng knew that the Zheng family must be a wealthy family.
"Send some to our neighbors to the west."
Gu Qingcheng asked Zhao Yuanyi to serve another plate and send it to the neighbor to the west.
With the experience of visiting the Zheng family, Zhao Yuanyi became more calm.
After two knocks, the door opened. The person who opened it was an old woman in her fifties.
The woman was thin, with sunken cheeks and some white frost on her temples.
She pursed her lips, the corners of her mouth drooping habitually, and she looked very serious.
He's not mean, but he seems difficult to get close to.
Zhao Yuanyi swallowed nervously, and the courage he had just mustered up couldn't help but shrink back in front of this hard face.
"I, I am——"
Zhao Yuanyi stuttered when he spoke.
The old woman didn't care and asked calmly, "Are you the new neighbor?"
She seems to be a bright and intelligent child. I hope her family can save themselves some trouble and avoid getting into trouble!
