It must be that the Tutor disliked him and felt that he was not good enough for Ji Huaiye, so he pretended to be sick and summoned Ji Huaiye back to Beijing.
After Ji Huaiye and Duan Taifu talked, they must have guessed the purpose of the other party.
The reason why he didn't tell himself was that he was afraid of hurting himself, and that he and Taifu Duan were both close to him. At this point, he didn't want to become enemies with Taifu Duan.
Jiang Yao felt that Ji Huaiye was caught between his wife and his mother, in a dilemma.
It seems that this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law problem has existed since ancient times.
Even outstanding people like Ji Huaiye will be troubled by it.
Jiang Yao didn't feel bad at all. She felt that she was no problem matching Ji Huaiye. Taifu Duan felt that she was not good enough for him. It was definitely not her own fault, but Taifu Duan's lack of perspective.
"Yao Yao, you don't have to worry about this matter, I will solve it." Ji Huaiye said.
"How to solve it?" Jiang Yao asked curiously.
"Take you back to Lushui County and get married." Ji Huaiye was very decisive.
"If this is the case, there will be a rift between you and Taifu Duan, and people in the capital will think that you are ungrateful and ignore the relationship between master and disciple for the sake of a woman."
Jiang Yao knew that the ancients were very affectionate and would be stabbed in the spine for this kind of thing.
"No problem." Ji Huaiye said calmly.
Seeing that Ji Huaiye was so kind to her, Jiang Yao couldn't bear for him to fall into an unkind and unjust situation.
If she wasn't just a tutor, she didn't believe it couldn't be solved.
The next day.
Jiang Yao went to find Taifu Duan.
Uncle Duan went in to report, but when he came out again, his brows were furrowed.
"Miss Jiang, the master said that he is too weak to see guests."
Jiang Yao knew that this was just an excuse.
I just don’t want to see myself.
This blind old man is quite stubborn.
When Jiang Yao was thinking about other ways, Uncle Duan came over.
"Every day at midnight, I go to the yard to water the cuckoos." Uncle Duan said secretly.
Jiang Yao suddenly smiled, Uncle Duan was trying to help him.
"Uncle Duan, is there anything special about this cuckoo? For example, Mrs. Duan likes it..."
"No, I just like it." Uncle Duan revealed all the information he knew to Jiang Yao.
In fact, he didn't do this for Jiang Yao.
It was for Ji Huaiye. He could see that Huaiye liked this girl Jiang very much.
The master doesn't like it, and Huaiye feels uncomfortable being caught in the middle.
He felt that Miss Jiang was quite nice, but the master was too stubborn and refused to see her.
Maybe meeting her will change my prejudices.
Based on the information given by Uncle Duan, Jiang Yao went to the courtyard at the right time.
In front of the cluster of rhododendrons, I saw an old man, with his back hunched over, pruning the branches of the rhododendrons.
Jiang Yao slowly walked over and said, "This flower is blooming well."
"That's what I raised with all my care." Tuan Taifu said, suddenly looking at Jiang Yao, "Are you a maid in the mansion? Why haven't I seen you before?"
"The master has a photographic memory. If he has never seen me, I naturally am not the same." Jiang Yao said.
Mrs. Duan was so praised by her: "My memory is naturally very good. When I was studying in the past, it took me dozens of times to learn something, but I can do it after reading it twice. How do you know that I have a photographic memory?"
Forgot?"
"You look very smart, old man."
"Young lady, you have such good taste." Mrs. Duan praised her, and he became more and more pleased with her, "Which girl are you from? Which girl are you wearing the clothes you are wearing? Are you here to see Ronger? Ronger's girlfriend.
A close friend?"
Taifu Duan asked warmly, as if he wanted to introduce someone to Jiang Yao.
He did have this idea.
He wants to find a good girl for Huaiye.
She must be a girl from a famous family in the capital.
Huaiye didn't like Ronger, so he wanted to look for someone else.
The girl in front of me is pretty good.
Since she is Ronger's best friend, she must be the daughter of a famous family.
Jiang Yao chatted with him for a while before revealing her true identity.
Taifu Duan's face suddenly turned red.
This...this is actually the person Huaiye wants to marry?
"Mr. Duan's health is quite good. Even though he is ill in bed, he can still come and water the azaleas in the yard." Jiang Yao said deliberately.
Taifu Duan's face turned even redder.
He wanted to save face. If his lie was exposed, he would like to find a crack in the ground to get in.
Taifu Duan grunted twice, ignored her, and watered the cuckoo flowers.
He calmed down and thought, this girl must be here to gain favor.
She wants to agree to her marriage to Huai Ye.
He won't be fooled!
"This cuckoo is really good. It is best used as medicine. The flowers, leaves and roots can be used as medicine to relieve coughs and asthma..."
"..."
Duan Taifu glared at Jiang Yao: "You want to use the cuckoos I worked so hard to raise as medicine? It's a waste of natural resources!"
"Teacher Duan, what you said is wrong." Jiang Yao said, "If you keep this flower, it will wither eventually, but if it is used as medicine, it can save people. As the saying goes, saving one life is better than creating seven levels of confusion.
This life-saving is a great merit. If you keep it without giving it medicine, you are wasting it."
Jiang Yao talked eloquently.
Taifu Duan:...It seems quite reasonable?!
"Let's keep it for a while, it will be better used as medicine."
Jiang Yao left these words and turned around to leave.
Tuan Duan was left stunned.
Taifu Duan originally thought that this girl was here to please him.
As a result, in the blink of an eye, you have to use your own azaleas for medicine?
