Before the dinner, the woman who had been by Zhang Tie's side was finally dragged away by her mother, and finally found a vacant Zhang Su and quietly pulled Zhang Tie aside and communicated with Zhang Tie in a low voice.
For just a few hours, he has been stared at by that woman with a nymphomaniac look, Zhang Tie is about to become the public enemy of those unmarried young men in the old mansion, in this regard, Zhang Tie just regarded it as a prank of that woman, and he didn't mind at all, under the woman's gaze, he had been calm and composed, and he didn't think that the woman would lose a hair by doing this.
As for those men who are jealous of themselves, apart from blaming themselves for being idiots, Zhang Tie has no obligation to explain, and the only thing that makes Zhang Tie feel a little funny is that several of his cousins actually make no secret of their jealousy of him.
Some of those cousins Zhang Tie was a little impressed, and some of them only met for the first time today, as members of the Zhang family, with the same blood, they would actually take a woman's performance seriously on this occasion, and they would be cold to their brothers, which couldn't help but make Zhang Tie very disappointed in them.
However, Zhang Tie knew that there was no way to do it, the old man had eleven children, and the next generation of these children, especially his uncles, had more than one wife, and there were at least fifty or sixty people of the same generation as himself.
The people of the two uncles' families who were close to Zhang Tie's family had already left for the Eastern Continent to meet their parents a month ago, and the elder brother also needed some help on his side, and Zhang Tie and several cousins and cousins in the two uncles' family 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 deliberately left Huaiyuan County a little earlier, so there is no need to be shy to come here on such an occasion, the old man's eldest lady was very mean at home, Zhang Tie's own grandmother is the fourth lady of the old man, that is, the fourth room, the big room and the fourth room have not been too harmonious, especially after Zhang Tie's grandmother died, the four rooms and one pulse have been receiving some exclusion at home, Zhang Tie's two uncles are not very happy at home, Because of this, he has developed a cautious personality since he was a child, but in the past two years, as Zhang Tie's family has slowly gotten better and better, the relationship between the big house and the fourth room has eased a little.
And seeing the undisguised jealousy in the eyes of those people looking at him, Zhang Tie understood that that woman's family background may not be ordinary, and those people's jealousy of him was not entirely due to that woman's beauty.
In fact, for those who can come here to celebrate their birthdays, it is just a beautiful woman, for whom it is just some toys and cheap goods, and few people will care.
"How did you and the daughter of the Wang family meet," Zhang Su asked Zhang Tie in a low voice.
"If I said that I only knew that woman's surname was Wang now, would 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 others don't believe it."
"What is the origin of that woman?"
"The Wang family of Fubo City, the largest ore and steel trader in Huaiyuan County, has more than ten minerals in Huaiyuan County and other parts of Jinyun Kingdom, and there are more than one gold mine."
Zhang Tie was surprised, he didn't expect that chick's family to be so generous, "What is the relationship between this Wang family and the Wang family of the six major families of Jinyun Kingdom?"
"It doesn't matter, it's just that the wife of the city lord of Fubo City is the 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 Fu Bocheng is relatively close, over the years, the scale of the family's shipyard has expanded a lot, the steel consumption in the shipyard is very large, and the business contacts between our family and the Wang family have become more frequent, and the relationship between the two families has become closer, and the Wang family only sent someone to celebrate my grandmother's birthday today."
Zhang Tie thought about it, and it was clear that from the perspective of the family elders, of course he was unwilling to let the power of steel and ore trade that affected the shipbuilding industry in Huaiyuan County be in the hands of another big family in Jinyun Kingdom, although the six major families had marriages with each other, but among the various families, there were still some bottom lines that could not be broken, each family had its own interests and territory, and it was impossible for another family equal to the family to grasp this important industry that was related to the family's economic lifeline.
"Does the old man want to marry the Wang family?"
asked Zhang Tie with a smile.
"The old man didn't say anything, but a few uncles and aunts are very enthusiastic about this, just before you came, an aunt had already introduced a few cousins to the daughter of the Wang family."
"Haha, if you marry the Wang family, I think cousin you are the most suitable," Zhang Tie quipped in a low voice.
Zhang Su glared at Zhang Tie, "I'm already interested in someone, it's not that you don't know" Zhang Tie then remembered that it seemed that Zhang Su did have a favorite senior sister on Qianlong Island, and when he was on Qianlong Island, Zhang Su also lent money to that senior sister to open it What kind of workshop to make money, Zhang Su was embarrassed to say at the beginning, but later, Zhang Tie learned from other people's mouths that Zhang Su already had a confidante in Lingtian Courtyard, and that senior sister seemed to be surnamed Fang.
Zhang Tie patted his head, "Why didn't Senior Sister Fang come today?"
"She's not yet level nine, and she can't leave Qianlong Island yet," Zhang Su said with some embarrassment.
On Qianlong Island, Zhang Su's cultivation speed and qualifications can be regarded as a relatively good kind of person, so he can advance to level ten within five years, while for many others, it is already very good to be able to advance to level nine before the age of thirty.
"By the way, I almost forgot, what was the name of that woman just now" Zhang Tie suddenly remembered something.
Zhang Su looked at Zhang Tie for a while, and finally said helplessly, "I've convinced you, that woman's name is Wang Shina."
Zhang Tie laughed When it was getting dark, the most solemn dinner finally arrived, and all the people in the old mansion and all the guests were gathered in the newly decorated banquet hall of the old mansion of the Zhang family, with a total of more than 200 people sitting at almost 20 large group tables.
The old man and the eldest lady of the Zhang family sat at the first table, after the banquet, the younger generations of the family took turns to toast the eldest lady to celebrate her birthday, and said some auspicious words, the old man and the eldest lady sat down, and each of the younger generations who came up to toast cordially said two words, and the eldest lady will also give a gold ingot symbolizing joy and auspiciousness as a red envelope to those juniors.
This gold ingot is the currency of the ancient Chinese people, this era is no longer universal, the use of standard gold coins in this era, and large transactions, the direct use of gold tickets or a large number of gold ingots settlement, the eldest lady gave a gold ingot weighing less than a kilogram, less than forty gold coins, here, for those who go up to celebrate their birthdays, that is, a picture of auspiciousness, but this is also a scene only in the rich family, ordinary people, the one or twenty gold coins are even a lot of money, where will it be used like this.
This younger generation's birthday celebration is an important part of the wealthy mansion to the old man's birthday, such a link, the birthday celebration is actually a secondary purpose, and more importantly, it is to show everyone the Zhang family's prosperity, talent, and children and grandchildren are full of wealth and nobility.
The general wants to parade, and the birthday celebration of his son and grandson here, to put it bluntly, is actually a special military parade in the family.
Taking the opportunity of toasting, some took this opportunity to show off their well-behaved in front of the old man and the eldest lady to please the old man and the eldest lady, and some took the opportunity to show their achievements and extraordinaryness in the dialogue with the old man and the eldest lady, and so on.
And those guests, at this time, all became people watching the ceremony, smiling one by one, listening quietly on the side, looking at the prosperous and lively scene of the Zhang family, and secretly commenting on the various characters among the descendants of the Zhang family in their hearts.
In the entire Jinyun Kingdom, I don't know how many marriages of wealthy families started when each family celebrated the birthday of their elders.
When Zhang Su went up to celebrate his birthday, the old man encouraged Zhang Su a few words, that is, to guard against arrogance and rashness, and make meritorious contributions to the family, and the eldest lady gave Zhang Su a gold ingot affectionately, and then Zhang Su came back.
This birthday celebration is also according to the generation, as the grandchildren of the old man and the eldest lady, they are the second batch of people who go up to celebrate their birthdays, and they start from the grandchildren of the big house, and then the second room, the third room, Zhang Tie is counted as the only representative of the old man's four rooms and one vein present today, in fact, he is the last in line.
This kind of link is actually dispensable for Zhang Tie, but on such a day, it happened to happen, and Zhang Tie didn't want to make himself too different, in front of a bunch of outsiders, the atmosphere and relationship of the family were stiff, and the previous things were in the past, so there was no need to worry about it anymore.
Others were toasting or waiting to toast, and few of the younger generations of the Zhang family were really moving their chopsticks at this time, only Zhang Tie was judging that no one was taking care of himself, and the whole table, except for Zhang Su, the others secretly despised Zhang Tie.
"You haven't eaten for a few days" Looking at Zhang Tie's appearance, Zhang Su asked in a low voice.
Zhang Tie thought about it, and when he didn't have time to speak, he made a gesture.
"Four days" Zhang Su was shocked.
Zhang Tie nodded A few days ago, Zhang Tie was cultivating on the airship, and he didn't eat, and yesterday he went to Huaiyuan Hall and spent a night with the elders, counting today, it's just been four whole days, seeing so many delicacies on the table, where does Zhang Tie need to pretend to be wronged in front of others, naturally he just opened his mouth and ate, isn't this thing on the table just for people to eat.
Zhang Su thought that Zhang Tie had a hard time returning to Huaiyuan County, and he couldn't even fill his belly, so he looked at Zhang Tie sympathetically at this time.

While Zhang Tie was eating, the three people at a table in the distance were also quietly observing Zhang Tie.
It's just that the eyes of the three people are different, one of the two women is full of fun, the other is heartbroken, and the man's sophisticated gaze is deeper, with a trace of incomprehensible confusion Wang Shina's mother saw Zhang Tie's appearance, her face was silent, she turned her head and glared at Wang Shina fiercely, which means that you, a dead girl, like such a hungry ghost reincarnated on such an occasion, don't embarrass our Wang family "Mom, don't you think that guy is very handsome" Wang Sina muttered in a low voice, seeing that her mother's hand under the table couldn't help but reach over and pinch her, she quietly stuck out her tongue, and quickly stopped and pretended to be a lady.
"Look at your daughter" The man smiled and said nothing.
Women love to look at the surface too much, and the person who can be so calm and calm on such an occasion is either an idiot who doesn't understand the rules, or that man has a tiger in his heart.
It's just that Zhang Tie doesn't look like an idiot and a person who doesn't understand the rules, but to say that he has a tiger in his heart, that age, but it seems to be too young, not like he is too experienced and capable, so Wang Shina's father is a little confused and can't see through.
After Zhang Su, after almost ten minutes, under the signal of Zhang Su's eyes, Zhang Tie knew that it was his turn, so he wiped his mouth, left the table with a glass of wine and walked towards the place where the old man and the eldest lady were sitting.
As soon as Zhang Tie stood up, the eyes of many people fell on Zhang Tie, and many people who didn't know Zhang Tie's identity were full of curiosity.
Coming to the front of the old man and the eldest lady of the Zhang family, Zhang Tie was about to speak, when a crisp and immature voice suddenly sounded from a table next to him.
"Ah, you coward of the Zhang family, you have been a prisoner of the demons on the battlefield, and you have the face to toast your grandmother" As soon as these words came out, the entire banquet hall was silent for a moment, and Old Man Zhang suddenly changed color:
