Chapter 291: Flowers

She had coaxed and deceived the matchmaker into leaving, and the matchmaker reminded her on her way out, "Zhao Wan is usually a silent woman. Would Zhang Hu really be afraid of his mother? You must stay for lunch today. Let Zhang Hu speak up for you. Once that's done, everything will be settled."

Liu You was speechless. The most formidable person in the Zhang family was Zhao Wan. She had heard from Zhang Hu that although the Old Master Zhang seemed to be the decision-maker in the household, it was really his wife, Zhao Wan, who had the final say.

Zhang Hu was quite fond of Liu You. He had often quarreled with his family for her sake, even coming to blows with Old Master Zhang. After several dishes were smashed, it was Zhang Ping who intervened and ended the dispute.
