A small coach with a gray oilcloth top carried the Chang families to their home . From outside the coach came through the cart driver’s shouts while inside of the coach the families were having a heated discussion .

“Nian, how did you do with the article?” Momo Chang asked in haste .
Chang Nian chuckled breezily, seeming not nervous at all, “Just like usual . ”
“You can’t be like usual!” Momo Chang got anxious at once, “You need to be better than usual!”
Chang Nian comforted his grandmother, “Grandma, don’t be nervous . I think Madam wants to help me . ”
Momo Chang let out a sigh of relief and felt a bit relieved . Chang Hu s.h.i.+ who sat opposite to Momo Chang couldn’t help but complain, “Mom, why did you tell Madam everything about our family! Even Master Gu hasn’t told her anything! Madam would only laugh at us!”

Momo Chang flew to a rage right away and abused, “What the h.e.l.l do you know?! You think we can hide this thing from Madam forever?!”
Chang Nian sensed that his mother was still not persuaded, then he persuaded, “Mom, grandma is right . I observed Madam when she was talking, she seemed to have already known about our family affair . ”
“Bos.h.!.+ I saw Madam’s surprised face when she heard that!” Chang Hu s.h.i.+ insisted that .
Chang Nian shook his head and said, “She was surprised indeed, but not about our story . Instead, I think she’s a bit shocked that grandma would say everything bluntly . ”
“Nian, you are a sensible boy!” Momo Chang looked at her grandson proudly, then she turned around and scolded her daughter-in-law, “You foolish woman! Don’t think you can fool Madam because she’s young . I heard that Cheng Manor has been strictly guarded! She would know about our affair sooner or later . It’s better to tell the story by ourselves than letting her find out by herself!”
“Then . . . What about Yan? Didn’t you say that you want Yan to marry Master?” Chang Hu s.h.i.+ looked at her daughter and said that .

After she had said that, Momo Chang burst into a fury right away, “You call yourself a mother?! We should discuss this kind of thing between us! Why did you tell Yan? I’m telling you, stop thinking of that! Don’t even mention about it!”
Chang Hu s.h.i.+ immediately got fretful, “Why?! Now that Master Gu is in a significant position, the wealthy life is saying h.e.l.lo to us! Why don’t you marry Yan to him?”
Momo Chang abused again, “Bulls.h.i.+t! Stop being foolish again! When my son focused on his study, it was you who envied other’s fortune and talked Nian’s father into doing business . You ruined our family! Now that we could finally live a peaceful life, you want to get us in trouble again?!”
Seeing Momo Chang getting furious, Chang Yan and Chang Nian both shut up . Chang Hu s.h.i.+ flushed after being abused and muttered, “Mom, the kids are here . ” She wanted her mother-in-law to show her some respect in front of the children .
However, the memory of Momo Chang’s son got her swollen with anger, she only shouted loudly, “You are a black sheep of our family! Vulgar woman! I must have been blind to choose you as my daughter-in-law! I fed and clothed you, and you only got my son killed! Do you really think Master Ye like you? He knew what kind of a person you were long time ago! He didn’t even bother to look at you!”
As long as Momo Chang got angry, she never cared about where she was and uttered everything she wanted to say . Now she was in the mood of cursing, she got so emotional that she nearly poked Chang Hu s.h.i.+’s face with her finger, “I only wanted Yan to marry Master Ye because I wanted Yan to take care of him since he had no one around him at that time . Now he has a great wife and lives a happy life! Don’t think you can mess up with him! I am an unlucky woman . The three bitterest thing in life, losing one’s father in the childhood, losing one’s partner in middle age and losing one’s child in old age . Unlucky for me, I have experienced all the three things! Now, I only want Yan to marry a decent man and Nian to have a bright future! If you commit foolish acts again, I’ll kick you out of our family! You don’t deserve to be their mother!”

Chang Hu s.h.i.+ got Momo Chang’s spits all over her face but could only bear everything without daring to retort .
Chang Yan pitied her mother who didn’t even have the gut to raise her head, so she couldn’t help saying, “Grandma, Master Ye is close to you . If I become his concubine, he’ll treat me nicely . ”
Momo Chang glowered at Chang Yan and pulled the latter’s ear while scolding, “You are just like your shallow mother! Let me ask you, for all these years, has Master Ye talked to you more than ten times?”
Chang Yan covered her ears while crying for pain . In the meantime, she blushed and said, “Master Ye always considers me as a little girl, so he never paid attention to me . ”
“Bah!” Momo Chang said angrily with her teeth exposed, “You have seen how old Madam is today . She’s just about the same age as you . Have you seen Master Ye treating her like a child?! Hear this, drop that stupid idea! You have met our Madam . Why don’t you get a mirror to look at yourself! Compare your appearance and knowledge with Madam’s! She is the phoenix in heaven and you are the leech in the field!”
Chang Yan, feeling deeply wronged, got her eyes red and pouted, saying, “I’m just saying! I won’t go then . ”
Momo Chang still hadn’t vented all her anger and continued cursing, “You have done observing mourning for your dad . When we get back, I’ll find a man for you to marry! Don’t humiliate yourself again! You and your mother have already seen what Cheng Manor looks like, you two don’t need to go there anymore! You better stay at home obediently, or I’ll beat each of you with a stick!”
“Woman’s life is never easy in a prestigious family . Old Master Bai couldn’t figure that out and let his daughter marry into Marquis Ningyuan’s mansion, and she died after only a few years!” Momo Chang, feeling deeply grieved, pulled her granddaughter’s ear again, saying, “A girl like you would be eaten alive in a big family like that!”
Chang Yan and her mother both fell into silence after being criticized . Momo Chang sighed and said, “I can still be of some help with your brother’s future because of the relations.h.i.+p I have with Master Ye . If Nian can make achievements in his career, you and your mother will benefit too . Alas . . . Pa.s.sing the imperial examination is not easy . My father has told me that ordinary people will spend dozens of years longer to take the imperial examination than the n.o.bles if they are not guided . ”
“Sister, grandma is right . You need to stop thinking of marrying to Master Ye . I see Brother Qing who lives next door to us quite fond of you . His family has farmlands and a shop . You won’t be mistreated in that family . ” After Chang Nian had lost his father, he got more mature than before . He persuaded his sister in a low voice, “Besides, I think Master Ye adores Madam a lot . He won’t pay attention to any other woman . ”
“Oh, you have found that too?” Momo Chang got intrigued . She always trusted her grandson .
Chang Nian nodded and smiled shyly, “When I gave Madam my article, she put the fruit half of which she has eaten in the plate . Master picked that fruit and ate it right away . ”
