Translating Sloth

The madam Mao Shi beat Zhao Xing Kun to a bloody nose and a swollen face, messy hair, Mao Shi’s very strength could be seen from this…, but Zhao Jin Yu felt there was a greater reason why no one dared to stop her, otherwise how could such an elderly lady like Mao Shi get past so many people?  This also demonstrated how unpopular Zhao Xing Kun was. According to reasoning, the madam hitting him, Zhao Xing Kun ought to extremely angry, he should make the madam know the rules of the family, a wife, even in the position of the grandmother, openly disrespecting the head of the family in such a way, so much so as to make an unreasonable scene in front of so many people, she truly lost her elegant demeanour, who knew before Zhao Xing Kun could issue such words, the madam fainted after her burst of anger, afterwards she laid down in the house not coming out, and not allowing Zhao Xing Kun to enter. Doctors came and went, only saying the madam only suffered from pent-up frustra...

“Why do you think eldest brother still hasn’t got a heir?” The fifth old master Zhao Tian Kun seemed to have a bellyful of words, his eyes gazed over the rather restless second older brother Zhao Tian Kun, he continued saying, “That’s because he wants to take revenge on those people who urged him to give up on Zhao Ying Guan back then, he hates that we didn’t help look for him, rather encourage him to give up on that son!” “He feels guilty, and don’t want us to feel right either!” With stunned faces everyone looked at Zhao Xing Kun, both afraid, and suddenly realised, there were also some people with a quizzical expression, but clearly there was a definite reason for Lord Wu’s words. Everyone began to whisper. A cousin of the Zhao family stood up, he was now over seventy years old, but he took good care of his health, his words were clear, he said, “Nephew, I don’t believe in Tian Kun’s words, but it really is quite inappropriate for you not to have an heir so late.” Imme...

Due to what happened before, the relatives banquet that night was somewhat awkward and uncomfortable, but the most awkward thing actually came from the master of the Zhao family’s fifth branch Zhao Zhen Kun. Zhao Zhen Kun watched Zhao Jin Yu greet him, he haughtily said, “Older brother, are you sure this girl has the blood of the Zhao family? I can still remember over these past years no less than tens of people have come solely acting to be family.” With these words, the joyous atmosphere in the house suddenly vanished, only an indescribable stifling undercurrent remained. Zhao Zhen Kun’s wife Bai Shi was so shocked her face paled somewhat, she was Zhao Zhen Kun’s second wife, she was only thirty years old, she was very timid, she hurriedly urged, “Master, do you want tea?” Then quivering she handed over tea, who would have imagined however it was knocked on to the floor by Zhao Zhen Kun. That teacup crashed onto the floor, immediately breaking into pieces, Zhao Jin ...

Zhao Jin Yu and Chen Rong were taken to the hall by Cui Yu, it was already the time to light lamps, lanterns hung from the eaves, brilliantly red, appearing to reflect the joyous occasion, making those who looked to be in a jubilant mood, the madam heard Zhao Jin Yu had arrived, in spite of people stopping her, she personally walked to the door to greet her. Apart from the young and old maids, there was a girl of similar age to Zhao Jin Yu humbly supporting the madam as they walked over together, she slightly lowered her head, showing her bright and full forehead, but just from that it could be seen she was a very beautiful woman. “Qing Luan, this is your younger sister, Rui Zhi.” The madam Mao Shi patted the back of Zhao Rui Zhi’s hand, intimately introducing her to Zhao Jin Yu, “We are not flourishing with heirs, you sisters have to get along well from now on.” Hearing this Zhao Rui Zhi lifted her head to nod at Zhao Jin Yu, showing a full moon like gentle smile, she sa...
