Hearing her words, Wen Tingyuan curled his lips, and the lightly held hand finally let go and fell on the head of the girl opposite.
Qiao Yuyan didn't avoid it this time, which made his smile deepen, "That's a lot."
"You...you said it!"
"Last time you said," he retracted his hand, clenched his fist and coughed softly to his lips, "you knew about my family's affairs?"
Are you talking about his life experience?
Qiao Yuyan nodded immediately, "Yeah."
"My background is not glorious, and even now, I am not very popular in the Wen family."
When he said this, his expression was calm and his tone was calm.
But Qiao Yuyan felt a little sour in her heart when she heard this. The birth of an illegitimate son has always been a thorn in the side of her aunt's mother, but now that she is in love with Xie Yuan, it will only hurt her heart even more.
Why did such a life experience happen to him? This is obviously not his fault and has nothing to do with him.
The smile on Wen Tingyuan's face did not disappear, "Even though I have little assets, if I want to establish myself in the capital, it is impossible not to return to the Wen family. Even if I can handle the things outside, the things inside are also troublesome."
He paused, his smile gradually faded, but his eyes became thankful and serious, "Yan'er, let me be honest with you, I don't trust anyone in the Wen family, and I have to rely on you to take care of it for me in the future."
Qiao Yuyan looked at him seriously, feeling a magical and indescribable feeling lingering in her heart.
"It will be difficult to be my wife. Mother-in-law, sisters-in-law, and all kinds of relatives, none of them are easy to get along with. They will find fault with you, make you look bad on the spot, deliberately embarrass you, and even face frame-up and instigation.
Are you afraid of something unforeseen?"
Qiao Yuyan said nothing, but she was not afraid, but trembled because of his words.
Isn't this what happened to her in her previous life?
In her previous life, she married Wen Liang, the eldest son and grandson of the Wen family, but these things also filled her life.
Why, the gentleness in his previous life was right in front of her, and the two of them were sleeping in the same bed, but he couldn't see her helplessness and grievance, couldn't see her sinking into the quagmire, couldn't see her fear and despair.
But at this time, it was clear that she was just in the name of Wen Tingyuan's fiancée, but he had already thought of what she might face.
"Of course I will try my best to protect you, but when I am outside, there will inevitably be things that I cannot take care of. Yan'er, I believe in you, but I may not be able to trust others. And I can only trust you with my family affairs."
"Is this the reward you're talking about?"
As soon as she asked her words, Wen Tingyuan nodded without hesitation, "Yes! Since I chose the imperial examination, I have determined the path I will take in the future. This road is not smooth. I need a stable supporter behind me."
environment."
"I can!" Qiao Yuyan looked at him with bright eyes, "I can do it!"
Until Wen Tingyuan had left for a long time, Qiao Yuyan still sat there without moving, but her face no longer looked confused and depressed as before, and finally gave birth to some life.
No one understands the situation of the Wen family better than her. Although it is a bit depressing to think that she will still marry into the Wen family in her next life.
But the situation today is completely different. It is Wen Tingyuan's home, and he needs himself.
Although Qiao Yuyan didn't know why Wen Tingyuan was taking such a completely different path from his previous life, what he just said was right.
Now that she has passed the Jie Yuan exam, there will be absolutely no problem in spring next year.
But even if you can pass the imperial examination, your fate is unpredictable.
If you can get through connections and stay in the Hanlin Academy to gain qualifications, that is the best way out. If you are ostracized, you will most likely be thrown to a remote place and become a county magistrate.
Know when you can come back.
Since he chose the imperial examination, he must have his own reasons and ambitions. Naturally, he could not take care of the affairs in the house later on.
As Wen Tingyuan himself said, he can't trust others.
Qiao Yuyan bit her lip and exhaled frequently. She owed him such a great favor, and she would take care of the backyard for him for the rest of her life, so that he could realize his dream without any distractions.
After figuring this out, the anger in Qiao Yuyan's heart gradually dissipated.
Seeing the half of the cloud shoulder again, she just silently took out a bag, put it away, called Qixi again, and stored it under the cage.
She didn't mention that woman in front of Wen Tingyuan, she didn't dare to mention it.
The current situation was already certain. Even though she had never been able to overcome the hurdle in her heart before and could never accept Wen Tingyuan as her fiancé, she could not change this.
In this case, mentioning the woman she had never met was just exposing the scar in his heart.
Qiao Yuyan sighed quietly and said sorry silently in her heart.
He turned to Qixi and said, "Go outside and tell me that I want to have dinner with my father tonight."
Qiao Yuyan then said to Pinlan again: "Prepare a soft sedan chair and I'll go to Ninghe Hall."
Pinlan looked confused when she heard this, "If anything happens to you, girl, just tell the slave to come over, why bother to work?"
"I didn't come back all night that day, and my tired grandmother didn't sleep a wink all day and night. Although she said she was recuperating and didn't go over to pay her respects, I felt uneasy about the elders' kindness at that time."
Qiao Yuyan said and asked Yuan Bao to come in and change her clothes.
Seeing that his girl was still as affectionate to her as before, Yuan Bao felt relieved again and started chattering about what to wear to look good.
In Ninghe Hall, Aunt Zhao heard the commotion and came over early. She repeatedly told the women carrying the sedan to be careful, and then she personally helped Qiao Yuyan into the house carefully.
"Girl, your feet can't even touch the ground, so why did you come to the old lady?"
Qiao Yuyan just smiled and asked, "Where's my grandmother? I didn't even have to say hello to her when I came back that day. It was unfilial after all. I felt really uneasy. And I'm much better today. I should come over anyway."
A bit of love appeared in Aunt Zhao's eyes, "The old lady said, after the girl came back that day, she couldn't hold it any longer. She didn't get up for the past two days, but don't worry, girl, the imperial doctor has come to take a look.
, I prescribed two doses of warming and tonic medicine, and said there was no serious problem."
When Qiao Yuyan heard this, she complained repeatedly that Pinlan didn't say a word.
When they got inside, the old lady was already sitting on the bedside, with a smile on her face, "It's okay to blame others, I won't tell you. Besides, what are you doing when you come out like this? What if you fall down?"
What, do you want to live anymore?"
Then he took her hand and looked at the wounds on her body carefully, "Oh, if you survive a disaster, you will be lucky in the future. You have suffered a disaster."
Qiao Yuyan's eyes heated up, "It's my granddaughter's lack of vigilance that makes the elders in the family worried."
"No wonder you, you can only be a thief for a thousand days, how can you guard against a thief for a thousand days?" The old lady got angry and asked Aunt Zhao, "Have the Yao family recruited anyone?"
