Chapter 182 Zhang Mansion Concubine 28
Madam Zhang was so angry that she almost vomited blood: "Who am I doing this for? It's all because of you. If it weren't for you, I would have nothing better to do than suppress the bastard."
"Don't you think about it? If the illegitimate son is promoted, will you, the legitimate son, still be so important in your father's eyes? Even if Zhang Weijia is ranked first in the exam, will your father still have you, the legitimate eldest son, in his eyes? His heart must be biased towards Zhang Weijia, the illegitimate son."
Zhang Weiwang looked at his mother helplessly and said, "Mother, you are just a woman's opinion. My sixth brother can get the first place in the exam, so he may get the first place in the exam, or even the first place in the exam. What does this mean to our Zhang family? Mother, have you never thought about it seriously?"
"Mother, you should take a long-term view. I know that everything you do is for my own good, but do you think I am so useless that I have to be protected by you forever?"
"In any case, you must not have any thoughts about Sixth Brother. The Zhang family finally has a scholar. Dad and I are counting on Sixth Brother to enter the government in the future and help the Zhang family improve its fortunes."
"Even if you are thinking about Yaozu's future, you can't have any bad thoughts towards Sixth Brother."
If the son is a promising person in the future, then with the protection of an uncle who is an official, it will be easier for him to advance in his official career.
To put it another way, if his son had an uncle who was an official to guide him in his studies, the son would be able to avoid many detours in his studies.
Zhang Weiwang knew his mother too well, so he had to curb his mother's evil thoughts and not let her harm his sixth brother.
Mrs. Zhang was not angry this time. After hearing what her son said, it seemed to be true.
Zhang Weijia is definitely going to pursue a career in politics in the future, so there is no question of him competing with his son for the position of head of the Zhang family. If Zhang Weijia becomes more successful and becomes a high-ranking official in the court, the benefits to the Zhang family will be obvious.
After all, you can't write two surnames with one stroke. Even if Zhang Weijia has a lot of resentment towards her as his stepmother, as long as he is a descendant of the Zhang family, he must be closely tied to the Zhang family when he becomes an official. It is simply impossible for him to break away from the family, let alone revenge.
"I know," Mrs. Zhang said with a relaxed expression after she figured it out. "I won't do anything to Zhang Weijia, but I have wronged him as his mother over the years. As his brother, please apologize to him on my behalf!"
It was definitely impossible for her, a legitimate mother, to admit her mistakes to a bastard, so her son had to come forward. Not to mention letting Zhang Weijia vent his grievances, but at least he had to show an attitude to make Zhang Weijia feel better.
"Don't worry, mother. I know what to do," Zhang Weiwang said, and then he stood up. "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."
"Well, go ahead!" As soon as Mrs. Zhang finished speaking, Zhang Weiwang turned and left.
After watching the eldest son leave, Nanny Liu came to Madam Zhang and said, "Madam, are we really not going to take action against the Sixth Young Master?"
Madam Zhang rolled her eyes at Madam Liu and said, "You heard what the eldest master said just now, but why are you still unable to understand it?"
"Alas!" Mrs. Zhang sighed, "This woman is a woman, with long hair and short knowledge. If I hadn't heard what Wei Wang said, I'm afraid I would have ruined the matter."
Madam Liu nodded and said, "I am also terribly scared. Fortunately, Madam called the eldest master here. Otherwise, if we hadn't listened to what he said just now, we would have been in trouble."
"I don't know if the Sixth Young Master can pass the imperial examination and become the top scholar in the future. If the Sixth Young Master can pass the imperial examination and become the top scholar in the future, then the young master will have a sixth uncle who is also a top scholar. Are you still worried that the young master will not pass the imperial examination and become the top scholar in the future?"
"That's right," Mrs. Zhang agreed. "My grandson is a man of letters. If he has an uncle who is the top scholar, he will be even more powerful. He will have no choice but to become a high-ranking official. Maybe he can even become a royal consort."
Nanny Liu nodded, agreeing with what the lady said. Both the master and servant had confident expressions on their faces, as if the prince consort was already in the pocket of little Zhang Yaozu.
At the same time, in Jiang Chunxi's yard.
Qiu Hong: "Auntie, I didn't expect the Sixth Young Master to be so amazing that he actually got the first place in the exam. When the time comes for the Juren exam, I think it won't be difficult for him to get the Jieyuan."
"The examination for a juren is different from the examination for a xiucai. Although Zhang Weijia was able to pass the exam with the first place due to his own strength, there was also some luck involved," Jiang Chunxi said, "but the examination for a juren is different. If Zhang Weijia wants to pass the exam with the first place, it is not just luck that can make him pass."
"But with his ability, it won't be a problem for him to pass the imperial examination."
It is undeniable that Zhang Weijia does have a talent for studying, but it is not to the level of a world-shaking talent.
The examinations for the scholar and the juren are just like the middle school entrance examination and the college entrance examination in real life. They are completely two different levels. Students who do well in the middle school entrance examination do not necessarily get good results in the college entrance examination.
"It's already amazing to be able to pass the imperial examination," Qiu Hong said with a smile, "If the Sixth Young Master can become an official in the future, the benefits to our Young Master are obvious. After all, he is his own flesh and blood. Even if he is nominally the eldest son's son, can the Sixth Young Master still not care about his own flesh and blood?"
Jiang Chunxi smiled and said nothing.
Talking about blood ties with a man like Zhang Weijia is simply a joke. When he gets married and has children in the future, there will be no place in his heart for the child born to Jiang Chunxi.
So, Zhang Weijia will not have a son in the future. His son can only be born by Jiang Chunxi.
Ha! Jiang Chunxi is not a philanthropist. She planned so much, but in the end, she could only benefit other women and got nothing in return.
So! She wanted it again and again.
Whether it is Zhang Weijia or the huge fortune of the Zhang family, Jiang Chunxi wants them all, otherwise she would not have thought of having two more children with Zhang Weijia.
There are family businesses to inherit on both sides, so how can we not have more sons?
At the same time, Wu Xiulan was here.
"I never thought that the Sixth Young Master would be able to pass the exam and get the first place," Wu Xiulan sighed. "Just because the Sixth Young Master passed the exam and got the first place, the Zhang family will definitely do everything they can to pave the way for the Sixth Young Master to enter the official career. I'm afraid our Sixth Young Master will be extraordinary in the future!"
"Yes! Who would have thought that the Sixth Young Master, who had always had no sense of existence, would quietly pass the exam and become the top candidate," Meizhu said, "But this is enough to show how cruel Madam was in suppressing the illegitimate son, which is why the Sixth Young Master was so secretive and didn't dare to reveal his talent for studying so early."
