Castle of Black Iron

Before the dinner, the woman who had been with Zhang Tie was finally dragged away by her mother, and finally found a free Zhang Su quietly pulling Zhang Tie aside, and communicating with Zhang Tie in a low voice.

For just a few hours, Zhang Tie has been stared at by the woman with a nymphomaniac look. Zhang Tie has almost become the public enemy of the unmarried young men in the old house. For this, Zhang Tie just regarded it as that woman. Prank, he didn't mind at all. Under the eyes of that woman, he had always been calm and composed, and he didn't think that this woman would make him lose a hair. As for the men who were jealous of themselves, apart from blaming them for their idiots, Zhang Tie also had no obligation to explain. The only thing that made Zhang Tie a little funny was that his cousins ​​did not hide their jealousy towards him.

Some of those cousins ​​have a bit of impression of Zhang Tie, and some of them met for the first time today. As a member of the Zhang family, they are of the same blood. On this occasion, they would take a woman's performance seriously, and be cold to his brother. This Zhang Tie couldn't help being very disappointed with them.

But Zhang Tie knew that there was no alternative. The father had eleven children. The next generation of these children, especially his uncles, not only married a wife, but at least fifty or sixty people of his own generation. Among these people, there are outstanding people like Zhang Su who can mix some famous people in Qianlongtang, and naturally there will be several shallow people.

The two uncles’ family members who were close to Zhang Tie’s family had already set off for the Eastern Continent a month ago to meet his parents. The old man also needs some help from his parents. Some cousins ​​and cousins ​​did not come today. Zhang Su's father Zhang Lin also went to the Eastern Continent early, preparing for the transfer of the Zhang family's industry.

Seeing such a scene today, Zhang Tie thought to himself, maybe the two uncles left Huaiyuan County deliberately a little earlier, so there is no need to bashfully go here on such occasions. The old man’s eldest lady was very effective at home. Zhang Tie’s pro-grandma is the fourth wife of the old man, that is, Sifang. Dafang and Sifang have always been in harmony, especially after the death of Zhang Tie’s grandma. There was some exclusion in the family, and the two uncles of Zhang Tie were not very happy at home, so they developed a cautious character since childhood, but in the past two years, with the Zhang Tie family slowly getting better and better, The relationship between Dafang and Sifang has only eased.

And seeing the undisguised jealousy in the eyes of those people looking at him, Zhang Tie understood that the woman's family background might be unusual, and that those people's jealousy of themselves was not entirely due to the beauty of that woman.

In fact, for those who can come here to celebrate their birthdays, they are simply beautiful women. For them, they are all toys and cheap goods. Few people care.

"How did you meet that daughter of the Wang family?" Zhang Su asked Zhang Tie in a low voice.

"If I say that I only know that the woman's surname is Wang, do you believe it?" Zhang Tie smiled bitterly.

Zhang Su looked at Zhang Tie's face seriously and nodded slowly, "I believe it, but I'm afraid other people won't believe it!"

"What is the origin of that woman?"

"The Royal Family of Fubo City, the largest ore and steel trader in Huaiyuan County, has more than a dozen minerals in Huaiyuan County and other places in Jinyun Country, and there is more than one gold mine."

Zhang Tie was astonished. He didn't expect the little girl's family to be so generous. "What is the relationship between this king's family and the king's family of the six major families of Jinyun?

"It doesn't matter, but the wife of the city lord of Fubo is the relative sister of the old man of the Wang family. This Wang family can be regarded as one of the more famous relatives of our Huaiyuantang Zhang family, and has been closer to Fu Bocheng. , The scale of the family’s shipyard has expanded a lot, the steel in the shipyard has consumed a lot, the business between our family and the Wang family has become more frequent, and the relationship between the two families has become closer. The Wang family sent someone to celebrate my grandma’s birthday today... …"

Zhang Tie thought for a while, and it became clear. From the perspective of the family elder, he certainly did not want to let the power of the steel and ore trade that affect the shipbuilding industry of Huaiyuan County be in the hands of another big family in Jinyun State, although the six major families Families are married to each other, but in each family, there are still some bottom lines that cannot be broken. Each family has its own interests. For this important industry that is related to the family's economic lifeline, it is impossible to make it equal to the family. Another family to master.

"Is the old man going to marry the Wang family?" Zhang Tie asked with a smile.

"The old man didn't express his opinion, but some uncles and aunts were very enthusiastic about it. Just before you came, an aunt had already introduced several cousins ​​to the Wang family's daughter!"

"Haha, if you marry the Wang family, I think cousin you are the most suitable!" Zhang Tie joked in a low voice.

Zhang Su glared at Zhang Tie, "I'm already interested in someone, don't you know?"

Only then did Zhang Tie remember, it seemed that Zhang Su did already have a favorite senior sister on Qianlong Island. When he was on Qianlong Island, Zhang Su also lent money to that senior sister to drive.

Zhang Su was embarrassed to say that the workshop was making money. Later, Zhang Tie learned from other people that Zhang Su already had a confidante in Lingtian Academy, and that senior sister seemed to have the surname Fang.

Zhang Tie patted his head, "Why Sister Fang didn't come today?"

"She is less than level 9 and can't leave Qianlong Island yet!" Zhang Su said embarrassedly.

On Qianlong Island, Zhang Su’s cultivation speed and aptitude can be regarded as a relatively good type of person, so he can advance to the tenth level within five years, and for more people, he can reach the third level. It’s good to advance to level 9 before the age of ten.

"By the way, I almost forgot, what was the woman's name just now?" Zhang Tie suddenly remembered something.

Zhang Su looked at Zhang Tie for a long time, and finally said helplessly, "I have convinced you, that woman is Wang Shina!"

Zhang Tie laughed...

...

When it was getting dark, the most solemn dinner party finally arrived. All the people in the old house and all the guests were gathered in the newly furnished banquet hall in the old Zhang family house. There were more than two hundred people in total and they sat for almost twenty people. Big group table.

The old man of the Zhang family and the old lady were sitting at the first table. After the banquet was opened, the younger generations in the family took turns to toast the old lady and say auspicious words. The old man and the old lady sat, and were kind to every younger person who came to toast With just a few words, the eldest lady will also give a golden ingot, a symbol of joy and auspiciousness, as a red envelope to the younger generation.

This gold ingot is the currency of the Chinese in ancient times. This era is no longer universal. In this era, standard gold coins are used. For large transactions, gold tickets or a large number of gold ingots are directly used for settlement. The lady gave it. A gold ingot weighs less than one kilogram, and less than forty gold coins. Here, for those who go up to celebrate their birthdays, it is just a good luck, but this is also a scene that can only be found in a rich family. People, those ten or twenty gold coins can be considered a huge sum of money, how could they be used like this?

This younger generation’s birthday is an important part of the rich mansion’s birthday to the elderly. Such a link is actually a secondary purpose, and more importantly, it is to show everyone that the Zhang family is prosperous and talented. , A scene of rich descendants.

The generals are going to parade. To put it bluntly, the part of birthday celebrations for grandchildren is actually a special military parade in the family.

Taking the opportunity of toasting, some took this to show off in front of the old man and the old lady, and to please the old man and the old lady, and some used this to show their achievements and extraordinary in the dialogue with the old man and the old lady. Many, many.

And those guests, at this time, all became observants, smiling one by one, listening quietly, watching the prosperous and lively scene of the Zhang family, and secretly commenting on each of the younger generations of the Zhang family. character.

In the entire Jinyun Kingdom, I don’t know how many big family marriages started when the families gave birthdays to their elders.

...

When Zhang Su went up to celebrate his birthday, the old man encouraged Zhang Su a few words, that is to say, to guard against arrogance and rashness, and to make further contributions to the family, the old lady kindly gave Zhang Su a gold ingot, and then Zhang Su came back.

This birthday is also based on generations. As the grandfather and grandma’s grandchildren, they are the second batch of people who went up to celebrate the birthday, and they started with the grandchildren of the Dafang, and then the second and third rooms. Zhang Tie counted as the old man. The only representative of the Four Chambers and One Line present today is actually the last one.

Such a link is actually unnecessary for Zhang Tie, but on a day like this, it happened that Zhang Tie didn't want to make himself too alternative, and in front of a bunch of outsiders, the atmosphere and relationship of the family would be stiff. , Then the past things will pass, there is no need to hold on.

Others are toasting or waiting to toast. Few of the younger generations of the Zhang family are really using their chopsticks at this time. Only Zhang Tie is judged to eat at the desk as if no one is taking care of themselves. The whole table, except Zhang Su, others Everyone secretly despised Zhang Tie.

"You haven't eaten for a few days?" Zhang Su asked in a low voice looking at Zhang Tie's appearance.

Zhang Tie thought for a while, he didn't have time to talk, so he made a gesture.

"Four days!" Zhang Su was taken aback.

Zhang Tie nodded...

A few days ago, Zhang Tie entered the training on the airship, and has not eaten anything. Yesterday, he went to Huaiyuantang and spent the night with the elders mushrooms. Counting today, it has been exactly four days. Seeing so many delicacies on the table, Zhang Tie Wherever I need to pretend to be wronged in front of others, I naturally ate it with my mouth open. Isn’t the thing on the table just for people to eat?

Zhang Su thought that Zhang Tie's journey back to Huaiyuan County was difficult and he couldn't fill his belly. At this time, he looked at Zhang Tie sympathetically.

...

While Zhang Tie was eating, the three people on a table in the distance were also quietly observing Zhang Tie. It's just that the gazes of the three people are different. One of the two women's gazes is full of interest and the other is heartbroken. The man's sophisticated gaze is deeper, with a trace of confusion...

When Wang Shina’s mother saw Zhang Tie’s appearance, her face remained calm, and she turned her head and stared at Wang Shina fiercely—that means—you, a dead girl, likes this kind of person on this occasion. The reincarnation of the hungry ghost? Don't shame our Wang family...

"Mom, don't you think that guy is handsome?" Wang Shina muttered softly. Seeing her mother's hand under the table could not help but pinch her, she quietly spit out her tongue. She stopped and pretended to be a lady again. Seeing her appearance, her mother turned her head angrily and whispered to the man next to her.

"Look at your daughter?"

The man smiled and said nothing.

Women love to look at the surface too much. A person who can be so calm and unrestrained in this kind of occasion is either an idiot who doesn't understand the rules, or the man has a tiger in his heart.

It’s just that Zhang Tie doesn’t look like an idiot or a person who doesn’t understand the rules, but if he has a tiger in his heart, at that age, he seems to be a little too young, not too experienced and capable. So, Wang Shina’s The father was a little confused and unable to see through.

...

After Zhang Su, almost ten minutes later, under Zhang Su's eyes, Zhang Tie knew that it was his turn, wiped his mouth, and left the table with a glass of wine and walked towards the place where the old man and the old lady were sitting. Past.

As soon as Zhang Tie stood up, the eyes of many people fell on Zhang Tie, and many people who did not know Zhang Tie's identity were full of curiosity.

When Zhang Tie was about to speak in front of the old man and the old lady of the Zhang family, a crisp and tender voice abruptly rang from a table next to him.

"Ah, you, a coward of the Zhang family, have been a prisoner of the demons on the battlefield, and you still have the face to toast grandma!"

As soon as I said this, the whole banquet hall went silent for a moment, and Mr. Zhang's expression suddenly changed...
