Chapter 72 Cleaning up
Yan Zhigao did not go to Shuangxinyuan to see Aunt Lin. He just asked Mrs. Li to ask the doctor to take a look. He knew that it was not a serious illness, and then he stopped asking and concentrated on the handover.
Second bedroom.
Mrs. Sun was taking Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile away to pay their respects. Yan Zhiyuan, Yan Wenjie and his son were sitting aside and watching. The whole family seemed harmonious and warm.
"Mom, why are there so many things in our house?" Yan Yile asked curiously when she saw Mrs. Sun constantly taking out things from the house, many of which she had never seen before.
Mrs. Sun smiled: "These are all your mother's dowry." She looked at Yan Zhiyuan and said proudly, "After careful calculation, your mother's dowry is no less than that of your eldest aunt."
p>
In any case, the Sun family is also a well-known local landowner, and she is favored at home. When she got married, her parents generously supported her.
Yan Yile's eyes lit up: "Really?"
Yan Zhiyuan put down the tea cup in his hand and said angrily: "What the hell is that?"
Mrs. Sun was unhappy: "Isn't it true? When my sister-in-law married into the Yan family, she brought thirty-six dowries. When I came in later, didn't the Sun family also prepare thirty-six dowries?"
Yan Zhiyuan shook his head: "You are a person who likes to compare everything. The number is the same, but the contents are the same? I have seen my sister-in-law's dowry, and every one of them is packed tightly.
Yes, is your dowry like this?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Sun was discouraged. Compared with her sister-in-law's natal family, the Li family, the Sun family only had more land, but it really couldn't compare in terms of money. However, she, who had always been arrogant, was not convinced.
"Then I'm better than the one from the third family!"
Yan Zhiyuan: "You are living a better life. How can you compare with the third child's family? Her family is a tenant and your family is a landlord. Are you embarrassed to compare like this?"
Mrs. Sun wanted to refute, but she couldn't find anything to say, so she had no choice but to pack her things.
Yan Zhiyuan did not continue. In front of the children, he still had to save some face for his wife.
Yan Wenjie gave Yan Yile a look, signaling her to change the subject.
Yan Yile rolled her eyes, thought of something immediately, and said with a smile: "Yesterday, my uncle didn't go to see Aunt Lin, and Yi Shuang even cried."
Mrs. Sun immediately put aside the previous matter and said with a smile: "That Aunt Lin usually looks very smart, but what she did yesterday was really stupid. She didn't even think about how her eldest brother could go there on his first day back.
Even if she wants to compete for favor, she has to push her back!"
Yan Zhiyuan also sneered and said: "Some people are used to being spoiled, and then they forget their identity. Even if the eldest brother doesn't care about other things, he still has to worry about the younger ones like Wenxiu."
At this point, Yan Zhiyuan paused and looked at Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile: "In the future, you two have to get close to Daohua, do you hear me?"
Yan Yihuan nodded obediently, but Yan Yile was a little unhappy.
Mrs. Sun stopped what she was doing and asked: "Master, I seem to have heard that the reason why my eldest brother was promoted this time seems to be related to that girl Daohua?"
Yan Zhiyuan nodded: "I don't know the details, and my eldest brother didn't tell me either. However, my eldest brother's promotion does have something to do with Daohua. I have already said that that girl is not simple."
How can an ordinary person be so aggressive if he has no support?
Before, he thought that his eldest niece was relying on the old lady, but now it seems that she is relying on him!
Sun's eyes flashed and she said uncertainly: "My mother always said that Daohua is a lucky star. Is it true? The year she was born, her eldest brother passed the imperial examination. It was not long before he came to the county town from his hometown that he was promoted.
”
Yan Zhiyuan's expression moved, but then he shook his head: "Okay, don't say these words. The biggest reason why eldest brother can be promoted is that he has the ability."
Mrs. Sun nodded, said nothing more, and continued to pack her things.
Three bedrooms.
Compared with the big bags and small bags in the second bedroom, the things in the third bedroom are so pitiful that there is almost no need to pack them.
Mrs. Wu sat on the step with her youngest son Wen Hui in her arms, and together with Yan Zhiqiang, listened attentively to her elder son's account of everything he saw in Fucheng.
After hearing the story of their fight with the governor of Fanzhou, Mrs. Wu looked frightened. Yan Zhiqiang also looked tense and looked at the eldest son seriously: "Wen Tao, when you go out in the future, you must control your temper. Qian Zhiqiang
Never conflict with others."
Yan Wentao: "Dad, we really don't blame us this time. It's Mr. Dong who is so abominable."
Wu: "When your father speaks, just listen carefully. How can this person not be wronged? If being wronged can avoid disaster, that's still a good thing."
Yan Wentao didn't quite agree with what his parents said, but he knew they were worried about him, so he nodded and agreed to them.
Yan Zhiqiang sighed: "Daohua is too courageous, how dare you snatch people from the hands of human traffickers?" They had no idea about rescuing people before.
Yan Wentao: "I think Daohua did the right thing. If we had not rescued Xiao Yeyang at the beginning, we would not have been rescued by Xiao Yeyang when we were in Fucheng."
Yan Zhiqiang's brows were still frowning. Like thousands of people living at the bottom, he was used to his duties. He would instinctively feel fearful and timid when doing something out of the ordinary, and he was unwilling to provoke the powerful at all.
Mrs. Wu knew her man well, patted his hand and said, "Daohua has a mother watching over her, and now she has a sister-in-law to teach her, so her temperament will slowly change."
Yan Zhiqiang nodded, with a look of helplessness on his face: "That girl Daohua, she has such a smart mind. Every time I say something to her, she can always come up with many reasons to refute, and every time I still think it's reasonable. Hey, I am
Nothing can be said about her."
Wu smiled: "Sometimes, I feel that Daohua's temperament is a little out of control, but sometimes, I feel that this is good. It's not easy to suffer losses and I can live comfortably."
Yan Wentao looked at his parents, who were worried about Daohua, and was speechless.
Why does Daohua need his honest parents to worry about!
Main courtyard.
A batch of household items had already been arranged by Mrs. Li to go on the road. When Daohua came over, Mrs. Li was instructing the housekeeper to go to Xingzhou first so that he could tidy up the living place in advance.
"Mom, do you need my help?"
As soon as Daohua came over, she asked directly. She didn't have many things, so she packed them up in a few seconds.
Mrs. Li was not polite, gave Daohua a ledger, and asked her to check her warehouse.
Ping Xiao came back from outside with her things in her arms. As soon as she came back, she went to Mrs. Li and said, "Madam, when I passed Shuangxinyuan just now, I saw Mrs. Qin going in."
Hearing this, Mrs. Li sneered: "If you didn't mention her, I would have forgotten about her."
Pingtong shook his head: "Master Qin is looking for Aunt Lin at this time, fearing that he wants to follow us to Xingzhou."
Ping Xiao smiled sarcastically: "Fortunately, she is still a teacher. If she wants to go to Xingzhou, she doesn't come to see my wife. Instead, she goes to see a concubine. This book has been read into the dog's belly."
Mrs. Li's eyes turned cold and she looked at Pingtong: "Take out the ten taels of silver and give them to Mrs. Qin later, and say thank you to her for teaching the three girls of the Yan family over the years."
Pingtong and Pingxiao looked at each other and smiled, happily agreeing: "Yes!"
Mrs. Li is officially dismissing Mrs. Qin!
Deyiyuan.
Master Qin had just returned from Shuangxinyuan. Although Aunt Lin repeatedly promised that she would take her to Xingzhou with her, she was still very uneasy.
At this moment, if she says that she has no regrets in her heart, it would definitely be a lie.
As a wife hired from outside, she really shouldn’t get involved in the fight in the backyard.
It was also in these years that Aunt Lin lived so smoothly in the Yan family's backyard that she almost forgot that the person who could really decide whether she would stay or go was actually the head of the house, Mrs. Li.
"Master Qin!"
Hearing Pingtong's voice, Master Qin suddenly stood up and walked out at an unprecedented speed.
