350 Zhang Family (Part 3)

“There are more?” Yue Jiaojiao hesitated, “This is more than enough.”

“It’s not much, not much. Not only has our Zhang family not raised Zhao Zhan all these years, we’ve even gotten such a good nephew-in-law like you for free. These gifts are nothing compared to what you’ve gifted us.”

Zhang Lingzhen chimed in, “Don’t worry, I didn’t prepare that many gifts for the child. They’re very light and easy to keep.”

Yue Jiaojiao’s brows raised. Not only did she not feel relieved, but she also had a bad feeling.

!!

“This is it.” Zhang Lingzhen took out a stack of paper and stuffed it into Madam Zhang’s arms, then pushed her. “This is for him.”

Yue Jiaojiao subconsciously took a step back, and Zhao Zhan protected her tightly.

This gift was really too expensive, and she did not want to accept it.

Madam Zhang smiled and walked forward.

“Keep these things well. We came out in a hurry and didn’t have time to prepare many things. In the rush, we only prepared these. The houses in Shangjing are really expensive. So, I only prepared one house. This is the title deed. If I find a good one in Shangjing in the future, I’ll buy one for your child as well.

“I heard that your family goes to Yang City as well, so I have prepared two house deeds and three shops for the child. I have only prepared one in Hekou County, for you to rest when you are on your way.

“Next up is Huai County. I bought a four-by-four courtyard for the child in Huai County, as well as five other shops, all for the child.

“I thought that Willow Village was near Wangshan Town, so I didn’t buy a house. I came in a hurry and couldn’t observe the place more. I only bought a total of fifty acres of fertile land on the way. We’ll buy more in the future.”

Yue Jiaojiao clutched the thick stack of house and land deeds in her hands. For the first time, she experienced the feeling of being smashed by someone with silver.

“Oh…”

Yue Jiaojiao pushed the deed forward. “There’s really no need to do this much…”

Zhao Zhan had only given a portion of the profits from the Bei City business to the Zhang family, but that profit was definitely not enough to buy these things.

The Zhang family had taken out so many things, even with their strong fundation, it was likely that they would suffer a serious injury this time.

Seeing that she did not want it, Madam Zhang immediately became anxious. “Zhao Zhan, quickly persuade your wife to take it.”

“Zhao Nian is too young. He won’t be able to use all the things you’ve given him. It’s better for you to keep these house deeds first.”

Madam Zhang nudged Zhang Lingzhen with her elbow.

Zhang Lingzhen paused for a moment before explaining, his voice very deep.

“These things aren’t considered a lot to us. We only have two children. The Zhang family’s property should have been divided into two.

“My second brother is not steady enough and has never fulfilled his responsibilities as a son, a husband, and a father. So the property that belongs to him should naturally be left to you.

“A part of this is the family property that should have belonged to you. The other part is what your aunt and I are giving to your family because we want to.

“So, you must accept these things no matter what.”

Zhang Lingzhen’s expression was solemn.

Seeing that Zhao Zhan didn’t say anything, he continued, “Zhang Lingshen is Zhang Lingshen, and you are you. The blood of the Zhang family flows in your veins, so it’s reasonable for you to get a share of the family property. Don’t give up this property because of Zhang Lingshen.”

This matter concerned Zhao Zhan’s biological father, so Yue Jiaojiao couldn’t overstep her boundaries and help him deal with it.

“Thank you.” Zhao Zhan pressed down on Yue Jiaojiao’s hand and closed her fingers that were holding the deed. “We’ll accept these things gracefully.”

All the things were precious.

“Speaking of which, I forgot about this as well.” Madam Zhang suddenly said. She then hurriedly got up and went to the pile of boxes to rummage through them. After a long time, she came back with a scroll painting. “This is what Lingshen left for you when he left halfway. We didn’t open it to look at it.”

Just thinking about it made Madam Zhang very angry.

With such a terrible father, leaving behind a picture scroll would only make people angry.

“Thank you, you must be tired from the long journey. Have a good rest first. I’ll get someone to invite you and Grandmother to dinner later.” Zhao Zhan clenched the painting. “I’ll take Jiaojiao back to the bedroom first. You guys go ahead.”

The scroll was twisted in his hand. Zhao Zhan’s expression was cold. He opened the scroll as soon as he entered the bedroom.

Yue Jiaojiao, who was standing at the side, saw everything clearly.

“Zhao Zhan…” She looked at the contents of the painting in disbelief. After a long time, she found her voice. “I’ve seen the contents of this painting before.”
