Chapter 6: Younger Sister (Part 1)
Enchantress | December 13, 2021
There was an unpleasant episode at this birthday banquet. Finally, the old birthday star had no choice but to go upstairs to change into a new dress, and also changed into a set of emerald jewelry to match the new dress.
That set of emeralds is precious though. But everyone knows that her granny still prefers rubies and prefers to wear red on such festive days.
Zhang Yansheng’s grandma’s face is very ugly all over the place.
Her grandma endured it until the birthday banquet ended, and she burst out to Zhang Huan when she was about to get in her car in the courtyard: “If you can’t teach your son well, then don’t bring him out to embarrass me in the future!”
Zhang Huan didn’t dare to lead Zhang Shuocheng to follow the old lady at this time, and let Liang Yingying first take Zhang Shuocheng and Zhang Heling in the car to wait for him. Now, the only ones in front of the old lady are Zhang Huan and Zhang Yansheng.
“Don’t be angry.” Zhang Yansheng gently stroked the arm of the old lady, comforting softly, “It’s not worth it to be angry.”
The granddaughter is so gentle and lovely. When the old lady looked at her, her anger was a little bit lessen; but when she looked at her son, she groaned again.
Zhang Yansheng glanced at Zhang Huan and said, “My father can’t control that kid. He’s used to being like a little ancestor, otherwise do you think that kid would dare to be so naughty?”
Grandma was furious, then pointed to Zhang Huan and said: “It is the father’s fault for raising kids but not teaching them! If you can’t handle him, then let Yanyan be in charge of him!”
Zhang Huan sweated on his forehead and only dared to nod his head: “Okay, okay.”
Zhang Yansheng said: “That’s alright but how should I take care of him? If he will not obey, should I beat him up? Our family doesn’t hit children.”
“You are the eldest daughter of this family. The eldest sister is like a mother. Of course, you are qualified to take care of your younger siblings.” Her grandma said with a cold face. “We don’t hit kids, but that rule only applies for you and for Hehe who are obedient. Shoushou is like a monkey that needs to be beaten! Hit him! How old is he for you to not be able to beat him? Did you learn that Sanda for nothing?”
Zhang Yansheng glanced at Zhang Huan: “I can’t wait to beat him to death every day, but will my dad let me do it?”
This child is spoiled by his father. As for his mother who’s better kept under the table, her grandma doesn’t have any expectations at all. She lowered her face: “If I let you beat him, then just beat him. If your dad will not let you, tell me and I’ll beat him instead! It’s not that I’ve never beaten him anyway!”
Zhang Huan can only smile when his mother reveals this secret in front of the girl.
He was relieved as he watched his daughter coax her mother into the car softly. He sighed and said to Zhang Yansheng: “Let’s go.”
Zhang Yansheng glanced at him and walked towards their car in silence.
At night, her daughter’s eyes are exactly the same as her mother’s back then. The look in her eyes was the same as the look in her mother’s eyes in the last two years.
He’s no longer under any illusions, there’s really no despair in her eyes now.
Zhang Huan was startled. The eldest daughter has been wrong tonight, but she seems to be
 too calm.
In the past, she will always feel indignant, will make a ruckus all the time fuming with rage. Isn’t that how she should be? Why did she
 suddenly change her character now? It was as if she was possessed by her mother.
On a hot summer night, Zhang Huan inexplicably felt a little bit chilly. He hurried to catch up with his daughter and headed towards their car.
After getting in the car, Liang Yingying complained: “What’s the big fuss? The kids are just naughty and that’s all. How can a person of her age be angry with a child?”
Zhang Huan accompanied his mother and aunt with a smiley face for the rest of that evening. So, he got angry when she scolded him now. He immediately yelled at her: “You shut up!”
He then turned around and pointed at Zhang Shuocheng’s nose and cursed: “If you dare to bring me this sh*t when you go out in the future, I will beat you to death!”
As he said that, he leaned forward and grabbed the water gun in Zhang Shuocheng’s hand, then threw it out of the window.
“My gun! My gun!” Zhang Shuocheng burst into tears.
“Shut up!” Zhang Huan shouted at him, “If you cry again, I’ll beat you to death!”
It is rare for Zhang Huan to be so angry with Zhang Shuocheng. He was so frightened, so his wailing changed into sobbing.
Liang Yingying was also terrified, especially with Zhang Yansheng that was sitting in the back row. Her face was a little bit awkward and whispered in a low voice: “He didn’t mean it
”
“Shut up!”
Zhang Yansheng only watched the farce between the father and son with cold eyes.
She knew that Zhang Huan was just scaring Zhang Shuocheng. Zhang Huan is a bit patriarchal. He had always wanted a son, otherwise he would not have brought Liang Yingying home and marry her if not for Zhang Shuocheng.
She was stupid in the past. She regarded Liang Yingying as a big mountain and had to jump around and turn her voice up. As a result, she pushed Zhang Huan to Liang Yingying’s side, which promoted the relationship of the husband and wife.
But how united can this couple be? Look, for such a small incident, and it’s now back in its original form.
Zhang Yansheng understands why Zhang Huan is angry.
Zhang Huan is not an only child. Although there are several independent companies under his name, the core business of the family is still in his mother’s hands. The number of points he scored in his mother’s heart now depends on how much power the old lady is willing to give him, and also on how much he can get from the old lady’s will in the future.
Zhang Yansheng, as a 15-year-old, had never thought about this in the past. But now that she has been in the society for a while, she realized that you can do anything with money. Looking at such a strong old lady, she really wants to give her a thumbs up.
She cast a glance to see Liang Yingying.
Such a young woman is together with her father, a half-old man, what does this picture tell? Isn’t it just to scheme for money?
It is so ridiculous that she used to think of her as a mountain. She was just a little gold-digger woman, who didn’t dare to let a fart in front of her grandma.
Zhang Yansheng now recalls what she had done before and sighed to herself
 She really did things in the wrong order and didn’t know what was the most important thing.
The woman sitting in the front is now unimportant in her heart. The illusion of ‘big mountain’ was crushed already.
Even her father, she remembered his cautiousness and flattery in front of her grandmother. She couldn’t help but tilt the corner of her mouth, bringing out a sneer.
As she turned her eyes again, she saw Zhang Heling beside her.
Zhang Heling sat in the middle at the back row. Her small face was white with fright, she wanted to cry, but no one in the car cared about her.
She is neither the first child who can bear the surprise of being a new father, nor the one that can handle and bear the expectation of being an heir. She was caught in the middle, she is also a girl, and she has a mother who depends on her son. She is destined to be the pitiful one who is ignored by everyone.
As if feeling her gaze, Zhang Heling suddenly turned her head and looked at her. There seemed to be tears in her eyes, but she bit her lip timidly, not daring to annoy the adults.
The two girls’ eyes met.
Zhang Yansheng clearly felt the anticipation in the little girl’s eyes.
Zhang Yansheng was baffled. When the mother and son entered their household, she was angry for a while and had pushed Zhang Heling down. Logically speaking, Zhang Heling should be afraid that she hates her.
But from the moment she entered the house, this little girl has always followed her, always wanting to be her little tail.
