Bai Qingyan looked at Dong's happy face, and didn't want to make Dong's sad by saying that he would never marry, so he only said: "I just saw that my second aunt's eyes were red, and I must have cried before I came." The second aunt loves me because I am a niece, but I don't see that the second aunt has to like a daughter-in-law with a difficult heir. My grandmother and uncle are for my good, but I can't force the cow's head to drink water, and in the end, the back house still has to beg for a life in the hands of my mother-in-law, A-Niang said that this is not the reason? ”

Dong didn't speak, but pondered.

"Auntie, my grandmother and uncle treat you and me so well, you can't bear to make my grandmother and daughter-in-law unhappy in her later years for my marriage? Life in the world is not only the way to get married, but you still comforted me before. ”

Dong's words were all words of comfort when her daughter was injured, she didn't want to let go of this family affair, and her lips snorted: "Or, or have you seen Brother Yuan?" In case of...... What is Brother Yuan willing to do? ”

Bai Qingyan did not refute Dong.

Mother said that her grandmother began to beat her and Dong Changyuan when she was injured, but she had never heard of it in her previous life.

Bai Qingyan closed his eyes and thought about it, and soon thought of the joints.

In the previous life, when my grandmother and second uncle and second aunt came to Dadu for the New Year, they did bring their second son Dong Changyuan from Dengzhou. It's just that at that time, not long after Bai Jinxiu died unexpectedly on the wedding day, presumably her grandmother was embarrassed to mention her own family affairs, and then the news that the Bai family's men were all broken in southern Xinjiang came back on Chinese New Year's Eve night......

She knew that her grandmother loved her, so she didn't want to let her grandmother and her second aunt and daughter-in-law have a dislike because of her.

Before the carriage arrived, the gray-haired Mrs. Dong was already in front of the Dong Mansion to greet her daughter and granddaughter, accompanied by her eldest daughter-in-law Song, four grandsons and two granddaughters.

Mrs. Dong wore a maroon embroidered gray squirrel fur jacket with Buddhist beads wrapped around her hands, and kept looking towards the right side of the long street.

Dong Changyuan stood beside Dong Lao Taijun with his hands in his hands, wearing a stone blue straight jacket, with a black jade jade pendant hanging from his waist, the young man in his prime was very handsome, but there was no emotion on his face.

"It's coming, it's coming!" A servant woman shouted, "I saw the second master's carriage!" ”

Mrs. Dong picked up the hem of her skirt with her hand wrapped around her rosary, and walked a few steps forward with the support of her daughter-in-law Song.

"Mother, don't worry, Sister Wanjun and Ah Bao can't fly again!" Mrs. Dong's Song joked with Mrs. Dong.

Mrs. Dong's second daughter, Dong Yaozhen, also smiled and held Mrs. Dong: "Grandmother, don't worry, if you bump into your aunt and eldest cousin, you should worry!" ”

Soon, the carriage stopped in front of Dong's mansion, and Dong got off the carriage first, and when he saw his gray-haired mother, tears welled up: "Mother! ”

"Wanjun!" Mrs. Dong's eyes were wet, and she couldn't care about anything, and walked down the steps quickly.

Chun Tao and Chun Yan, who had been following both sides of the carriage, helped Bai Qingyan get out of the carriage, and she saluted: "Grandmother, aunt!" ”

"My Wanjun, my Bao!" Mrs. Dong hugged her daughter with one hand and her granddaughter with the other, and her tears couldn't stop falling, making Bai Qingyan's eyes red.

Several cousins and cousins all stepped forward to salute, but only Dong Changyuan stood on top of the high rank, clutching the jade pendant around his waist and lowering his eyes and unwilling to look at people.

Seeing Dong Qingyue, who was standing next to the carriage, staring at Dong Changyuan who was stunned and not moving, Cui's hurriedly called Dong Changyuan, and Dong Changyuan reluctantly walked down the high stairs, and said to the end: "Changyuan has seen my aunt and cousin." ”

His eyes didn't glance in Bai Qingyan's direction at all.

"Brother Yuan has grown so big! It's really a young man! Dong wiped his tears with a handkerchief and praised it.

The eldest aunt Song was busy saying: "How can there be a reason to stand outside the gate of the mansion and speak, Ah Bao is not in good health and is already cold!" Mother...... Let's take Sister Wanjun and Ah Bao into the house to talk! ”

"Yes, yes! Let's go in and talk! Mrs. Dong took her daughter and granddaughter's hands and walked into the house, refusing to let go, and she couldn't tolerate anyone except her daughter and granddaughter.

As soon as she entered the house, Mrs. Dong hugged Bai Qingyan in her arms, and her tears never broke, and Bai Qingyan's new clothes before going out were wet with tears from Mrs. Dong.

Dong Changyuan sat on the pestle at the back and drank tea by himself, no one looked at anyone, it was not salty or light, and even Dong Lao Taijun noticed the resistance, not to mention Dong and Bai Qingyan.

It's true to worry about her daughter's lifelong events, but if she really marries her daughter to a husband who doesn't take her to heart, the Dong family is unwilling. Looking at Cui's who was obviously crying in the carriage with a wilted expression, and looking at his daughter with red eyes, Dong didn't want to be embarrassed, and thought about going back or talking to his mother about marriage.

"I haven't seen Brother Yuan for a few years, and I'll grow into an adult all of a sudden." Dong put down the teacup and smiled and nodded Dong Changyuan's name, and turned around and motioned to Tingzhu to take out the meeting gift for Dong Changyuan.

Only then did Dong Changyuan get up and bow to Dong.

Dong Lao Taijun hugged Bai Qingyan in her arms, looked at the second grandson of a talent, and only felt that she was a match made in heaven with her granddaughter.

"Last year, your grandmother wrote a letter, saying that you won the first place in the township test, and you have to understand the name of Yuan Gong! Aunt is happy for you, too! Dong motioned to Tingzhu to step forward and give the gift to Dong Changyuan, "These two Shoushan stones are also bad practices when placed here by my aunt, and if you give them to Brother Yuan, you can carve two seals." ”

Dong Changyuan was busy making excuses, Shoushan Stone was too valuable, and he really didn't dare to accept it.

"The elder can't give up! Your aunt gave it to you, you can take it alive, and don't let down your aunt's kindness to you in the future! Mrs. Dong had something to say.

Dong Changyuan, who bowed his head, became more and more ugly, and he didn't want to accept this generous gift.

Mrs. Dong's Song also covered her lips with a handkerchief and chuckled: "Look, my sister's gift is too valuable, and it scared Brother Yuan!" ”

Bai Qingyan, who was held in the arms of Mrs. Dong, saw that the eyes of the second aunt Cui were getting redder, and she didn't want the second aunt and Dong Changyuan to fight another belly lawsuit because she was worried about her family affairs, so she said: "Mother also hopes that cousin Changyuan can win the first place again and shine for the Dong family, and my mother's face is also bright." ”

Hearing a clear and soft voice, although Dong Changyuan was not disgusted, he also lowered his head.

Bai Qingyan stood beside Mrs. Dong and said with a smile: "I first met my cousin Changyuan today, and I also prepared a meeting gift for my cousin. ”

When Chun Tao heard this, she hurriedly sent Bai Qingyan to the best Hui Mo and the best Yan Yan that Bai Qing had ordered her to prepare.

Dong Changyuan was shocked when he saw this ink and inkstone, he was a person who loved to dance and write ink, and he immediately fell in love with this ink and inkstone. But when he thought that this was given by the person who his grandmother forced him to marry with death, his joy was like being poured a basin of cold water, and his heart was as uncomfortable as swallowing flies, so he lowered his head and said: "The gift from my cousin is too valuable, and Changyuan is useless...... I don't dare to accept it. ”
