Chapter 59: It's all in the works
His voice was low, and she couldn't hear what he was saying. It's short, though, and it seems to be just a few words.
After listening to him, Li Youyuan's expression changed suddenly. After a moment's pause, he didn't say anything more, and hurried away.
"Let's go." Yan Qing said, moving forward.
Gu Li took two quick steps and followed him.
"What did you say to him?" She asked curiously.
Why did Li Youyuan leave suddenly?
Yan Qing turned his eyes to look at her and smiled slightly.
"I told him that his parents were discussing his marriage at home."
Gu Li hesitated: "You tricked him?" ”
"Nope." Yan Qing chuckled.
"And how did you know that his parents were discussing his marriage?"
"I listened to what Master Zhang said."
Gu Li nodded, understanding the reason.
It's just that the county magistrate intends to marry, what is it like? What kind of girl can make Li Youyuan change color in a moment and go back in a hurry?
"Why are you here?" Gu Li changed the topic and asked again.
"I came out for a walk, and I happened to meet you." Yan Qing replied.
Coincidentally, I met her who was being pestered by Li Youyuan.
Gu Li nodded and smiled. Fortunately, there was him, otherwise she really wouldn't have much to deal with.
Yan Qingneng learned that Master Li was discussing Li Youyuan's marriage, but he didn't listen to Zhang Xuechu.
On the contrary, he deliberately leaked a message to Zhang Xuechu that day, telling him that Li Lin would be promoted to Huai'an Dao Supervision Envoy next year. Zhang Xuechu will inevitably tell Li Lin this news. After Li Lin learned the news, he would inevitably use some brains.
Li Youyuan is at the age of starting a family, and Li Lin and his wife originally had a favorite candidate, but if he really wants to be promoted to the Huai'an Dao Supervision Envoy, then this candidate is best changed.
Therefore, Yan Qing concluded that at least in the past two days, Li Lin has been thinking about and planning all this matter.
Let's say that Li Youyuan hurriedly ran home, and sure enough, he saw his father and mother discussing in the room, and it was his marriage.
"Dad, mother, I'm going to leave the words here today, I won't marry Cousin Lan Shu if I die!" Li Youyuan stood on the ground, looking determined and resolute.
Mrs. Li's face was already unkind, but when she heard this, she was even more angry in her heart, and reprimanded: "Then you will die!" ”
"With your bastard appearance as a cockfighting lackey all day long, where is Lan Shu not worthy of you? Ten of you don't deserve her! ”
"I'm not going to marry her anyway." Li Youyuan's face was firm.
Lan Shu is his cousin, the daughter of Mrs. Li's sister, so she wants to kiss and let her son marry Lan Shu.
This family business, Li Lin also agreed. Because Lan Sook's father, his brother-in-law, is the prefect of Jeju Prefecture. If he really marries this family, then he will definitely benefit a lot in his career in the future.
As for Li Youyuan, he didn't want to marry Lan Shu, it was really because Lan Shu's cousin was too ugly. is a good girl, but the person who was born is tall and tall, half a head taller than him. His face is not handsome, but as rough as a man.
If he marries this cousin and comes back, and sleeps at night and hugs her, it will be like holding a man, won't he have enough appetite?
He knew that his father and mother liked this family affair very much and wanted him to marry Lan Shu, so after hearing Yan Qing's words, his color suddenly changed and he rushed back in a hurry.
Anyway, no matter what, he will never marry Lan Shu.
Li Youyuan was ready to resist to the end, but the subsequent development of the matter was a bit unexpected to him.
"Okay, okay, what nonsense are you talking about? It's not that you have to marry Lan Shu. Li Lin, who hadn't spoken much, suddenly spoke.
Li Youyuan blinked and looked at him with a puzzled face.
"I'm discussing it with your mother, and I'll definitely find you a girl you like, so you can study with peace of mind." Li Lin commanded again.
Li Youyuan looked at him, and then at Mrs. Li, and really didn't understand in his heart, why did his father and mother change the hexagram so easily?
Mrs. Li was still full of unkindness, pulled her face, reprimanded Li Youyuan, and told him to leave quickly.
Li Youyuan responded and went out of the room with a full stomach.
As long as he is not allowed to marry Lan Shu, no matter who he is, he will definitely look better than Lan Shu.
The reason why Li Lin dispelled this idea naturally had his own considerations.
He will be promoted to the Huai'an Dao Inspector next year, and his rank is even higher than that of his brother-in-law, so naturally he no longer needs his help. The Inspector directly undertakes the order of the Holy Lord, and there is a high probability that he will enter the cabinet in the future, and he should make friends, and the worst must be equivalent to his status and official position.
Therefore, he now does not agree to let his son marry his cousin.
Mrs. Li is unhappy because of this, she has already told her sister about this family matter, but now that their family has been promoted, she refuses to marry, how can she explain to her sister?
But she is a woman in the end, and she can't be the master. What's more, she also wants her son's marriage to bring real benefits to the family.
It's just the marriage of the son of the county order, and it doesn't seem to be a big deal. But Yan Qing had already expected that this little thing would soon cause a great change.
More precisely, all this is under his control, which he planned from the beginning. From the moment he revealed to Zhang Xuechu that Li Lin was going to be promoted to the Huai'an Dao Inspector, his plan had already begun.
Next, all he had to do was wait quietly.
In the evening, Gu Li finished work and went home.
During dinner, she remembered the West Lake vinegar fish that she had eaten yesterday and was praised by Xiang Xian, so she asked him, "Do you know how to make West Lake vinegar fish?" ”
Yan Qing shook his head: "No." ”
Gu Li was a little surprised, there was anyone in this world who wouldn't have him? She also thought he could do anything.
Yan Qing seemed to see through her thoughts, and said with a smile: "I'm not a god." ”
"But you can tell me what it looks like and what it smells like."
Gu Li recalled and described the appearance and taste of the West Lake vinegar fish to him.
Yan Qing nodded and replied, "Okay." ”
Gu Li didn't expect him to make it, but when he went back the next night, he saw that there was really a West Lake vinegar fish on the table.
Brightly colored, beautifully shaped, and fragrant, it looks better and smells better than everything she eats in restaurants.
"You did it?" Gu Li asked hesitantly.
Yan Qing smiled and nodded: "Taste it, it's not the same taste as you said." ”
Gu Li picked up the chopsticks and took a bite.
It's not the same as what she tastes in a restaurant, it's even better. No, it's a lot of wins, the color, fragrance, and taste are all brought into full play.
Gu Li looked at him with a deep and puzzled gaze, who was he? What is his brain made of? Why is it that you can make a complex dish so well just by listening to the description?
