Chapter 99: Meeting in the Garden
He may not become a son-in-law, but the affection will not change.
Li Qianchen came to Yun's house once when he was seven or eight years old. His childhood memories had long been blurred. He was surprised when he suddenly saw the people at this table.
Why is the man I saw in the courtyard next door also there?
He heard that the dark-faced little girl in the courtyard called him grandpa.
It turns out there is more than one girl in the Yun family!
Quite interesting!
Li Qianchen was curious and didn't ask any more questions.
Yundachuan is sitting on pins and needles right now!
How come the young man riding out from next door to the yard is in front of him?
It seems that the elder brother still cares about him very much!
He doesn't talk too much!
Yundachuan's thoughts at the dinner table were all on Li Qianchen, and he was all looking at him while eating and drinking tea.
Li Qianchen didn't take it seriously and smiled politely at the uncle during the dinner.
Yundachuan laughed so hard that he couldn't hold the cup and almost dropped it, spilling a lot of wine in the cup.
"Second brother, are you feeling unwell?" Yundading asked, with a hint of majesty in his expression.
"...The wind has been blowing for a while today, maybe it's because of the cold."
"Then second brother, please go down and rest first." Yundading said with a gentle expression.
"I'm leaving first, brother!" After receiving the order, Yundachuan wanted to run away.
He put down the cup and walked outside the courtyard when he was stopped by the housekeeper.
"Second Master, the eldest master has said that you should go and sit in his yard. He has something to tell you." The butler said with a smile.
Yundachuan stood in the cold wind and felt a sudden severe headache.
Is it possible that the boy complained to his elder brother?
Yundachuan couldn't figure it out and went to the yard feeling guilty.
He waited and waited, and when he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard a heavy knock on the door.
He opened his eyes suddenly and saw his elder brother standing at the door with a livid face.
"Did you see Hua Chun today?" Yun Dating said.
"...Brother, I, I..." Yundachuan hesitated, sitting on the chair with his back hunched over, not knowing how to explain.
"Sit up straight!" Yundating reminded.
"How is he? You went out with a stick today, but you beat him?" Yun Dating asked one after another.
"...I, I didn't hit him. He left..."
Seeing his brother's useless appearance, Yundading shook his head and sighed helplessly.
My daughter can't do it, and neither can my brother.
"Where did he go? He just escaped from the northwest and has nowhere to stay."
"I don't know, brother, he has his own hands and feet, so he can go anywhere." Yun Dachuan said helplessly.
"Okay, please step back."
"This is your son, I can't control it. I can't even control you, so how can I control him?" Yun Dating sighed.
After hearing this, Yundachuan ran away quickly. He thought that his elder brother would make him kneel down in the ancestral hall because he was so angry today.
What an escape.
"Sir, do you want to inform the capital?" the housekeeper asked respectfully.
"I'll write a letter and send it to you."
After Yundating finished speaking, he walked to his desk.
First, he wrote about Li Qianchen's divorce, and then he wrote about Yun Huachun, a younger brother in the family.
As long as he knew that the person was not pretending to be a member of the Yun family, he had no intention of going into details.
Being able to get involved with General Wei is considered his ability. I heard that he also helped General Wei a lot. Yun Dating didn't know the details of this, but he felt that this junior was better than his father.
The Yun family looks like a bouquet of flowers, but in fact it is a raging fire.
The world today is not peaceful, and although Cangxing is still peaceful, something may happen one day.
It would be good if the younger members of the clan can go out and make a living on their own.
In the evening, the Yun family found a ruined temple to set up camp, and Wan Hongmei dug through the dry food she had packed during the day.
When I opened the bag containing dry biscuits, a lot of biscuit crumbs fell out.
The dry biscuits inside were broken a lot, probably by Yundachuan at noon.
"Look at this cake!" Wan Hongmei couldn't laugh or cry.
"It's not a big problem, Mom, I can't finish one cake, half is just right." Yuntao picked up a piece of cake.
Wan Hongmei boiled a pot of hot water, nestled a few eggs in it, and steamed the cakes for a while.
There is bean paste in the space. Spread some sauce on it and eat it with eggs. It will be delicious for the whole family.
"Should I stuff your parents' things into the space first?" Wan Hongmei asked.
"Put it inside, it's safer. Just remember to take it out when it's refreshed." Yun Huachun said.
Before, he was thinking about how to make money, and he collected a lot of money while passing by Cangxing. Their family was suddenly rich.
"Mom, I stuffed two pearls for grandma, pick the biggest one in my house." Yuntao said vaguely while stuffing the cake.
It was inconvenient to stuff it directly, so she put on a small sachet bought on the street.
Grandma stuffed it into her sleeves. I wonder if she has noticed it now.
Thinking of this, Wan Hongmei started to sigh. The two elders were pretty good.
Her mother-in-law took all the jewelry off her body, but she couldn't do anything for the two old people.
"When we settle down at the beach in the future, let's ask someone to give them some specialties." Yun Huachun said.
In ancient times, it was difficult to transport goods, so it was their intention to send some things from the seaside when the time came.
"There is nothing wrong with this, so stop thinking about it!" Wan Hongmei sighed.
Around the fire, the family fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning, Li Qianchen got the token exchanged by the two families.
The Li family's token is a white jade hairpin, which is left to the future mistress of the Yun family.
Li Qianchen put away the hairpin and prepared to go to the front yard to say goodbye to Yundating.
The Yun family has a rule of having breakfast together every day, and everyone eats their own food at other times.
Li Qianchen didn't want to join in the fun anymore, so he only went over after they finished eating.
Passing through the long verandah, Li Qianchen caught a glimpse of a red man standing in the garden not far away, and a woman's charming laughter came from time to time.
Presumably this is the young lady from the Yun family.
Li Qianchen didn't have any thoughts in his mind and just left without any nostalgia.
Yun Rujun was playing in the yard with his maid. The moment he turned around, he saw a man in plain clothes walking past in the corridor.
At a glance, the man's delicate features and gentle temperament aroused a lot of curiosity in her heart.
"Lu'er, are there any guests in the house today?" Yun Rujun asked.
"I've never heard of any guests. Maybe they are people who come to the house to ask for help from the master." Lu'er said in confusion, looking in the direction where her young lady was looking.
"Come on, let's go take a look!" Yun Rujun said happily, holding up her skirt and heading over.
Yun Rujun was very familiar with the layout of her father's yard, so she immediately took the maid to the small building next to her father's study.
If you open the second floor window, you can have a clear look down.
"Luer, look who that person is?" Yun Rujun pointed at the figure at the window with her long white knuckles.
Lu'er also looked over. Isn't this man Mr. Li?
"Miss, that's Mr. Li!" the maid said hesitantly.
"What Mr. Li?"
"Young Master Li Qianchen is engaged to you, miss."
