?Chapter 748: Chapter 748: Thawing the Past Grievances_1 Chapter 748: Chapter 748: Thawing the Past Grievances_1 Seeing the siblings reconcile and the children unite was, naturally, the most joyful and comforting sight for their father, Zhang Jianyun.

For years, his heart had been filled with regret, and he had endured great torment.

He was convinced that his daughter, no matter what, could not have harmed her own husband and must have been framed by someone.

Even so, he could only watch helplessly as she suffered the injustice, completely powerless to help.

What’s more, instead of being able to help, they even added insult to injury.

If he hadn’t seen the siblings make peace and the family unite, he would have died with his eyes open, unable to rest in peace.

Fortunately, heaven was watching and allowed him to see the long-awaited outcome.

It finally relieved him of his anguish.

“Second sister!” a call rang out.

Mother Xu turned her head and saw that it was her youngest brother, Zhang Mingpeng, looking at her with tears in his eyes and walking towards her, his expression full of excitement.

Among the many siblings, aside from the eldest sister Zhang Chunxiang, the one who was closest to Mother Xu was the youngest brother, Zhang Mingpeng.

Moreover, since their mother died early, Zhang Mingpeng had been almost brought up by Mother Xu and Zhang Chunxiang, sharing a relationship that was both motherly and sisterly.

When Mother Xu fell into hardship, the ones most worried about her were her eldest sister, Zhang Chunxiang, and her youngest brother, Zhang Mingpeng.

When Mother Xu had just fallen into misfortune, Zhang Mingpeng was only in his twenties.

Young and impulsive, he even planned to go to the Xu Family alone and rescue his second sister.

Fortunately, Zhang Minghui and the others discovered Zhang Mingpeng’s plan in time and stopped him.

Otherwise, Zhang Mingpeng would likely not have ended up well.

“Younger brother, it has been many years since we last met, I hope all has been well!” Mother Xu said with a smile as she walked over and touched Zhang Mingpeng’s cheek, her mind involuntarily recalling the past.

She had always held a special fondness in her heart for this youngest brother of hers, after all, Zhang Mingpeng could be considered to have been raised by her, how could she not be emotionally attached?

“Second sister, I’ve waited for you for so many years, and now…

you’ve finally come home,” Zhang Mingpeng choked up.

Hearing the words “come home,” Mother Xu’s eyes immediately began to moisten.

When Mother Xu learned that the Zhang Family had cut ties with her, she once felt disheartened.

But now, at last, she was reunited with her family once again.

Zhang Qinglan and Zhang Qinghui were walking over from not too far away, and seeing this scene, they too felt a great weight lifted from their hearts.

When they had heard that their second sister was coming back, they had thought she had come with ill intentions, to seek revenge on them.

But now it seemed that things were not as they had imagined, and they had misjudged her with a mean-spirited mindset.

Zhang Feng stepped forward, looking somewhat awkwardly at Mother Xu, and called out, “Second Aunt!”

The previous Zhang Feng was nothing but a hedonistic scion, only knowing how to spend money and enjoy himself, and relying on his elders’ affection, causing trouble everywhere and creating a lot of problems.

Especially this time, he had almost gotten one of his hands chopped off.

In that terrifying moment, he had almost lost all hope.

It was as if divine intervention when Zhou Xian and Bull Demon suddenly appeared, saving him from his dire situation like gods descending to earth.

This experience had deeply shaken Zhang Feng, and he had genuinely begun to think about changing himself, no longer wanting to continue living aimlessly.

And indeed, he succeeded in doing so, leading the Zhang Family towards an even more brilliant future from then on.

But that’s a story for another time, so let’s not dwell on it now.

“It’s been a while, Xiao Feng has also grown up,” Mother Xu said with a smile.

After chatting for a while, Zhang Jianyun said, “Right, eldest, could you personally check the kitchen to see how the dishes are coming along?

Ask them to speed up a bit, and remember, the braised pork ribs, sauerkraut fish, and grilled beef must all be present—no exceptions.

If they do well this time, we might consider giving them a raise.”

“Understood, Dad.

I’m on my way now,” Zhang Minghui nodded, then quickly left.

Hearing Zhang Jianyun’s instructions, Mother Xu felt a warm glow in her heart.

These three dishes that Zhang Jianyun had specifically ordered were all her absolute favorites.

?????.??

She hadn’t expected that Zhang Jianyun had always kept them in mind, without forgetting.

Then, Zhang Jianyun turned to Zhang Mingpeng and instructed, “Youngest, go to the wine cellar and bring out my treasured Maotai.

Today is a good day, we must have a few drinks to celebrate.”

Zhang Mingpeng looked concerned as he said, “But…

Dad, your health isn’t great, the doctor advised you to avoid drinking as much as possible.”

Zhang Jianyun responded, “Don’t I know my own body?

It’s just drinking, not poison.

Just go, no dawdling.”

Zhang Mingpeng had no choice but to respond, “If you insist on drinking, then please remember not to overdo it.”

Zhang Jianyun waved his hand dismissively.

Zhang Mingpeng turned and headed in the direction of the wine cellar.

The family chatted happily together, with laughter and cheerful voices filling the air.

Of course, the one Zhang Jianyun adored the most was the adorable Tongtong.

He was also extremely satisfied with Xu Yixue, his granddaughter-in-law.

About fifteen minutes later, Zhang Mingfei, having received the news, also returned to the Zhang Family, and only then did the family reunite.

They then went to the dining room amid lively conversation and laughter.

Though the Zhang Family was no longer as prominent as before, the dining room was still well-decorated and could be considered sumptuous.

The chefs’ skills were not lacking either; the array of dishes on the table was fragrant and inviting, making one salivate.

Three large tables were set up inside the dining room.

After all, aside from principal Zhang Family members like Zhang Minghui and Zhang Mingfei, there were a few dozen other direct relatives of the Zhang Family.

These members of the Zhang Family arrived at the dining room one after another, and when they saw Xu Fan and the others, they were all surprised, as this group carried an extraordinary presence and were clearly not ordinary individuals.

Moreover, what surprised them even more was seeing the Zhang Family patriarch, who had been out of public sight for many years and had not appeared for a long time, also coming to the dining room.

However, it didn’t take long for some of them to recognize the once second young mistress of the Zhang Family, Zhang Qingning.

Suddenly, they began to whisper among themselves.

They all knew about the past, how Zhang Qingning plotted against her husband and how the relations between the Zhang Family and Zhang Qingning had been severed.

So how could they not be shocked to see Zhang Qingning there now?
