Chapter 1773 The eldest granddaughter of a wealthy family 36

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about, really." Zhang Yu waved his hand, "As long as you take good care of your wife and don't touch my money, it'll be fine."

"Okay, I'm going to have breakfast." Zhang Yu went to the kitchen to eat.

As soon as I entered the kitchen, I found the chef and two maids standing at the door. When the three of them saw Zhang Yu, their expressions were embarrassed.

If the old man knew about this, they would be in trouble.

"Watch your mouths. If what happened today gets out, think about it yourself." Zhang Yu paused, "Of course, don't think of putting the blame on me."

"When that time really comes, I will ask the old man to investigate and see what will happen then..." Zhang Yu brought up Zhang Fugui.

Everyone nodded continuously. They were actually quite curious as to why the loving couple, the Third Young Master and his wife, were getting divorced.

Unexpectedly, they found out the whole story, but the news was extremely explosive. They also knew that if this matter were to be spread, the old man would lose face and would not let them down.

The three of them looked at each other and sighed in their hearts. They really shouldn't have been curious. Now that they knew the password, they couldn't tell it. It was really embarrassing.

Looking at Zhang Yu again, they really admired her for being able to eat after hearing such explosive news.

Zhang Yu was eating pie and drinking milk. Seeing their eyes scanning towards him, he said, "Calm down. This kind of thing is actually a small matter."

"There have been many cases of families being torn apart by gambling. Before liberation, people could sell their children, daughters, and wives."

"So, if you have some money, what can't you do? Go out and eat and drink, right?"

"Wouldn't it be nice to go out and see the scenery?"

"At worst, save up money to buy a house, and then collect rent when you are old. Isn't that great?"

"If you insist on gambling, you are really out of your mind."

"You know, in gambling, the biggest winner is the dealer. Haven't you seen the gambling king in the south? He is worth so much, but where does his money come from? It must be given by gamblers."

The chefs were stunned when they heard this and kept nodding their heads.

Zhang Yu finished his meal and got up to leave. When he passed the living room, he saw that the old man had returned.

Then I saw Zhang Hai and his wife actually kneeling down. Oh my god, Zhang Yu took a look and saw that they were kneeling on the marble.

Although it is spring now and the temperature is still acceptable, my knees will feel cold if I kneel on the marble for a long time. Also, the ground is hard. Kneeling like this will cause great damage to my knees.

Forget it. This kind of scene is really not something a child like her can witness. She just found out about Zhang Yutong’s secret, and now seeing how miserable the couple is, she will definitely become a thorn in their eyes.

Zhang Yu wanted to pass through quickly and quietly, but after all, she was such a big person, who could ignore her?

"Xiao Yu, follow me to the study." Zhang Fugui stood up and walked towards the study.

Call her to the study? Is this to have a heart-to-heart talk with her and ask her not to spread the news just mentioned?

Actually, she is really easy to deal with. As long as the hush money is in place, she will never reveal the news. It's just that she has no way to find Zhang Fugui and discuss the hush money with him.

When Zhang Yutong saw the old man, her heart beat faster and she wondered how much the old man had heard.

Just when she was feeling anxious, the old man asked Zhang Hai to kneel down. Although he didn't ask her to kneel down, she knelt down swiftly anyway.

They originally thought they would have to kneel down and listen to the old man's scolding, but who would have thought that he would just let them kneel down without saying a single word.

She was thankful that besides the old man, there were only the two of them present. Who could have thought that Zhang Yu would show up so suddenly?

The old man called her and said he was going to the study. How could Zhang Yutong not be anxious?

If they were not allowed to get up, how long would the couple have to kneel here? Zhang Yutong was very panicked.

"You go to the study room too." Zhang Fugui thought about it and decided to call Zhang Hai and his wife.

It would not be good to let them kneel in the small living room in case the servants saw them.

Although I only knelt for a while, I was kneeling on the hard and cold marble after all, and my knees felt cold.

When Zhang Hai heard the old man asking them to get up, he was so excited that he knew the old man would not ignore him.

Zhang Yu walked behind Zhang Hai and his wife, watching them walk in a halting manner. It felt like the pace that only old men and women could take, which was really interesting.

After entering the study, as the last person to enter, of course I closed the door.

Before she turned around, she heard Zhang Fugui angrily say, "You two go pick a washboard, one for each of you, and kneel down."

"You are not allowed to stand up without my order." Zhang Fugui really didn't want to see this couple now. Each one was more stupid than the other.

Wow, Zhang Yu hadn't expected that Zhang Hai and the others' punishment would be upgraded, from kneeling on marble to kneeling on a washboard. That thing was not only hard, but also had ups and downs. The punishment of kneeling on it was cruel enough.

It can be compared to kneeling on durian peel in later generations. Hehehe, just now when Zhang Hai heard that they were asked to go to the study, he was very happy, probably thinking that the old man had let them go.

However, they didn't expect that the old man didn't let them go at all but instead escalated the punishment again.

Huh? Zhang Hai originally thought that the punishment had come to an end, but he didn't expect that it was not like that at all. Instead, they were asked to change places and kneel properly.

It is uncomfortable to kneel on marble, and it is also uncomfortable to kneel on a washboard. If possible, you might as well choose marble.

"What? What I say now is no longer effective?" Seeing that they were not taking any action, Zhang Fugui sounded impatient.

Zhang Hai knew that the old man was unhappy, and he kept nodding, "Dad, let's go get the washboard now."

Zhang Hai glared at Zhang Yutong fiercely. You know, from childhood to adulthood, the old man had never punished him like this, but today, because of this prodigal daughter-in-law, he suffered such a great humiliation.

More importantly, Zhang Yu actually saw everything, so how could Zhang Hai not be so angry that he was fuming.

Zhang Yutong knew that Zhang Hai was very angry and had taken his anger out on her. At this moment, she felt hatred towards her mother's family for the first time.

He said that he loved her the most, but if he really loved her the most, how could he let her do such a thing?

They were worried about many things. If the gambling debts could not be repaid, the Zhang family's precious grandson would suffer. They were also worried that if this matter got out, it would damage the Zhang family's reputation.

They also considered that since the Zhang family's grandchildren were not married, their marriages would be plagued by various complications, but they never thought about how difficult life would be for her as a married woman.

They might have thought about it, but Zhang's daughter-in-law was more important. Besides, it was already ten o'clock, and they had been clearly notified long ago that the old man asked them to come over today.

It was already this late, and he hadn't arrived yet. Zhang Yutong felt very wronged.
