Standing in front of the Yan Mansion, Yan Suwen looked carefully, but only the words "high-ranking family" came to his mind.

"I can't imagine that the imperial doctor is also a high-paying profession, and this huge industry is not stable without an annual salary of thousands of taels." Yan Suwen thought in her heart.

The scarlet door opened from within, and a steward stepped out.

The steward is about forty years old, with a smile on his eyebrows and a kind face, but behind this smiling eyebrows and eyes is hidden in the world.

"The master came back so soon, but he received a question from the girl?" The smiling eyes froze for a moment at the moment when they asked Yan Su, and then said, "This is the girl who has been chattering with the old lady and the old man, right?" This look, it is the girl of our Yan family, and her appearance and bearing are different from other girls. ”

A girl from our Yan family seems to be affectionate, but in fact she is alienated.

Yan Suwen didn't take it to heart, she squinted her eyes, revealing a faint arc, and smiled very shyly.

"Su Wen is one year younger than Su Jin, and she is the second lady of our Yan family."

"Second Miss has worked hard all the way, let me carry this thing." The steward is also a delicate person, and when he heard Yan Baishu say that, he naturally changed his tone, and seemed to be a little more enthusiastic about Yan Suwen.

Yan Su asked if he had any luggage, except for a package containing clothes, only the small medicine box. When the housekeeper said so, she was not polite and handed over the two things directly.

The steward looked at her shyly, and sighed in his heart: "Sure enough, she is a girl who grew up in the countryside, and she hasn't experienced anything." But with such a shy and obedient temperament, don't say that it is not easy to make a living in the capital, even in this Yan family. ”

Thinking of this, the steward shook his head.

When he entered the gate, he saw a beautiful woman standing under the porch. looked at Yan Su and asked, stayed for a moment, and turned to look at Yan Baishu.

"I heard from the housekeeper that the master went out of the city to pick up his niece. For such a big thing, the master didn't say anything to me beforehand. ”

Yan Baishu didn't seem to like this beautiful woman, so he only swept her with the corner of his eye, and then fell to the side.

"That's Su Q, right? Looks a little like your mother. The beautiful woman stood motionless under the porch, with a smile in the corner of her eyes and a gentle and kind voice.

"Su asked, I've seen your aunt." Yan Baishu pointed at the beautiful woman.

On the way here, I listened to the steward. Her eldest uncle Yan Baishu has two wives and one concubine, and the current eldest aunt is a stepfamily, surnamed Qin, named Wanru, and born in a merchant family.

There is something about her eldest aunt, and I also heard her mother Du Ruo mention it when she was in Yanjiazhuang. It is said that her eldest uncle was quite handsome and excellent in medicine when he was young, and he had already taken up an important position in the Tai Hospital at the age of fourteen. At that time, the eldest uncle was the noble son-in-law targeted by many families in the capital.

At the age of seventeen, the eldest uncle married Xu Huizhi, the only daughter of Xu Shi'an, the Kyoto garrison, as his wife, and his wife was harmonious after marriage. Although the eldest uncle didn't mind himself, he was willing to help his wife with all his heart, but the old lady of the Yan family couldn't sit still. The Yan family is already thin, and the eldest uncle is a long house, and he has no children after marriage, so he has become a thorn in the throat of Mrs. Yan.

Time flies, and three years have passed. That year, when there was an epidemic in the capital, Qin Wanru's father took advantage of his relationship to send the post of seeking medical treatment to his eldest uncle. Due to the complicated relationship in the officialdom, the eldest uncle had to go to the Qin family to diagnose Qin Wanru, and this diagnosis actually diagnosed a marriage.

Soon after the epidemic passed, Qin Wanru took the opportunity to thank the Yan family and met Mrs. Yan. The daughter of a businessman is exquisite, and what she says and does is very pleasing. Mrs. Yan was happy in her heart, and Xu Huizhi's stomach still did not move, so she moved her mind to give her uncle a concubine.

The eldest uncle resisted, but he couldn't resist Mrs. Yan's death-seeking and tired life, and moved out the ancestors of the Yan family at every turn, so he could only nod his head. Xu Huizhi is a stubborn character, and when he saw that the eldest uncle should take a concubine, he begged the eldest uncle to give him a divorce on the grounds of the seven rules.

The eldest uncle was unwilling to divorce his wife, but he could not resist the matter of taking a concubine, just when he was in a dilemma, Xu Huizhi suddenly fell ill, and the condition was menacing, although the eldest uncle invited several of the most powerful doctors in the hospital at that time, but still failed to save her life.

In the second year after Xu Huizhi's illness and death, Qin Wanru was carried into the Yan family and became the new Mrs. Yan, and soon gave birth to the first child of the Yan family, that is, Yan Weilin, the eldest son of the eldest uncle.

With a light smile on Qin Wanru's eyes, the corners of Yan Suwen's lips were slightly raised, and her smile was her usual shyness and shyness.

"When I first came to the capital, I'm afraid there are still a lot of people who are not used to it." Qin Wanru walked out from under the porch, stepped on a piece of snow and walked to Yan Suwen, "It's all a family, and I'm not in a hurry to recognize everyone at this moment." ”

There was something in the words, Yan Su asked and heard it, but he still pretended not to understand. She raised her eyelids lightly and called out like a gnat: "Auntie." ”

"Good!" Qin Wanru patted the back of her hand and took her hand by the way: "The old lady has been waiting for a long time, and your brothers and sisters can't wait to meet you." ”

Yan Su asked "um", there were no extra words, she just followed Qin Wanru through the corridor, bypassed the flower hall, and finally arrived at a spacious courtyard.

Mrs. Yan was not there, saying that she was sleepy, and was helped back to the room by Xie to rest. The big girl next to the old lady left a message and asked Yan Su to ask to meet him later. The rest, except for Yan Weilin, the son of the Yan family who is still in the Tai Hospital, she has seen the remaining four.

"You're Yan Su asked?"

The disdainful eyes, from the bottom up, fell on Yan Suwen's face. The one who asked was the third child of the Yan family, oh, no, now it should be the fourth child of the Yan family, and Yan Mutong, the original second lady of the Yan Mansion. She and Yan Weilin, the son of the Yan family, and the eldest lady Yan Muyun were all born to Qin Wanru, and they were the young ladies of the Yan Mansion.

"Yes!"

Qin Suwen lowered her eyebrows, and quietly looked at this little girl who was younger than herself, smaller than herself, but much bigger than herself.

"At first glance, it's from the countryside, and I don't have any eyesight, and I don't know how to say hello when I see people." Yan Mutong looked at her with disgust: "I heard my grandmother say that you came back to Beijing this time to withdraw from your relatives." But no matter how I look at it, it's because others don't want you. Also, how can a country girl like you marry into Yecheng. It's okay to retire, the future of the province will be seen as a joke of our Yan family. ”

"My sister is right, it's true that people don't look down on me."

The Gu family quit their relatives, this is a fact, Yan Su asked himself and didn't want to deny it.
