Zhang Hanqing was also dressed up in a festive manner. However, when he saw his mother's expression, he felt helpless and a little angry.
In his previous life, Zhang Hanqing had always protected himself very well as a little brother, so he never had a girlfriend or wife.
He was too young to come here, and his body had never secreted any strange things that affected his thinking. He had never thought about the problems of the future.
Now that he thought about it, he should be careful not to be like Old Zhang.
There were quite a number of guests this time, and they were all famous figures in the new citizens. However, some people could not be invited.
For example, the magistrate could not be invited. After all, this was not marrying a wife, but taking a concubine.
Mr. Lu didn't make a big deal out of it. After all, his daughter was young. This was a disgraceful thing for Mr. Lu.
The most important thing for scholars was to lose face, but there was no other way. They could only agree. Otherwise, their daughter might not come back.
Someone had told him that this was definitely Old Zhang's scheme, but what did he know? So what if he didn't know?
Nothing could be changed. Instead of that, it was better not to know anything. At least her daughter could live a better life over there.
"Old Zhang will definitely be happy. Can he not marry again in the future? We can't stop him now. Out of sight, out of mind!”"Then I need to go to school. If I go to a private school after the New Year, how am I going to face Mr. Lu?" Zhang Hanqing said.”
"Well, what you said makes sense. I can see through you, but you're the eldest son!”
"Mother, your son is a prodigy. Why would I care about Old Zhang's family background? Besides, didn't we take all his money?”
"You really want to leave?"
"Of course, you should know that I'm a fast learner. It's also difficult to find a great teacher outside the pass!”
"That's true, but it's very dangerous for us mother and son. The world isn't peaceful!”
"I've thought it through. I can bring Xishun along. In addition, I'll get Old Zhang to give a few veterans with families. After we go to Shanghai, we can also train some people ourselves.”
"You really don't look like a child. Alright…we'll tell your father after the new year!”
……
The next day, Old Zhang was also very pleased with himself. One could tell from the wrinkles on his face when he smiled at breakfast.
Zhang Lushi, on the other hand, was calm. After all, she had studied with Mister Lu since she was young. She was a well-educated and reasonable person who respected Zhang Zhaoshi very much.
Her manners were not bad at all. Zhang Zhaoshi did not have any intention of making things difficult for her. After all, this was not her problem, but Old Zhang's problem.
"Son, where have you been studying?”Old Zhang was probably too happy recently and had neglected Zhang Hanqing's progress in his studies. Today, he finally remembered.
"You'd better not ask. You won't be able to tell even if I tell you!”Zhang Hanqing didn't spoil him.
"Hey, kid, how can you talk to your father like that?”Old Zhang frowned and said angrily.
"I've always said this, but I do have something to tell you. After the first month, Mother and I will be leaving.”
"Let's go. Where are we going? Go back to your uncle's place?" Old Zhang held the bowl and took a sip of the porridge. He didn't think it was a big deal.
"Shanghai!"
"Ah?" Old Zhang was instantly shocked." Where?”
"What are you doing there? It's very chaotic there. Are you two up to no good?”Old Zhang was so angry that he slammed the bowl and chopsticks on the table.
His son learned everything too quickly. Mr. Lu didn't teach him for long, and the priests taught him several foreign languages.
"Then why do you have to go to Shanghai? The Westerners there are not easy to talk to!”Old Zhang was still worried about the foreigners.
"How is it convenient?" Old Zhang didn't understand.
"When John Law taught me the Oxfordian language, he used their scriptures to teach me directly, so I'm very familiar with their teachings!”
"…" Old Zhang still didn't quite understand. Scriptures? "He taught you Buddhist scriptures?"
"Three years. Aren't you coming back in the middle? You're the eldest son of our Zhang family!”
Old Zhang had no idea what to eat, and his heart was in turmoil. His son was too special, so he was not sure now.
It was true that his wife was unhappy that he had married a little one, but this was very normal!
Was his son unhappy?
This kid was definitely unhappy. After all, if his mother was unhappy, he would definitely be unhappy. However, leaving so far away for so long, there was something wrong!
Could it really be for the sake of studying?
Old Zhang couldn't figure it out. His son was too interested in Western things, especially Western knowledge.
He was still thinking about the top scorer!
