The past is like smoke

Mrs. Tang was shocked, for so many years, she herself had forgotten about the incident in Hangzhou. She glanced at Mama Huang and Mama Cui, who were on duty today, both of whom were married by the Li family back then, and were also insiders of the affairs of Hangzhou back then. It's really a coincidence, if it weren't for these two people on duty, her heart would have been scared out. The Li family has also been the housewife of the Tang family for many years, but she is quiet on the surface: "It's good that your master has something to say, is it possible that I still need to talk about a deal with him?" ”

The gray-clothed embroiderer glanced at her, and quickly lowered his head, with a burst of disdain in his eyes: "The little one is just here to pass the word." The master said that if you don't want to see other women's sons live more beautifully than your sons, then go to Beijing properly and do these few things. ”

Mrs. Tang's heart was cold, although she was also unhappy when she saw Xinjie and his wife, but she was not happy when she was coerced. After all, having been by Tang Lan's side for decades, no one really dared to tell her how, just...

In the capital, Tang Lan got up early in the morning to practice. There are no lazy people in the Tang Sect, no matter how hard the journey is and how busy the affairs are, the hard work cannot be left behind. After he finished practicing, he walked around the yard, and when he heard the rustling of leaves in his son's yard, he smiled with satisfaction, not only did his son's skill increase dramatically, almost surpassing his father, but even his daughter-in-law was about to become a master. He stood by the lake, looking at his son's yard opposite, looking at the fallen leaves floating on the water: "Yanyan, we not only have a good son, but also a good daughter-in-law." The Yan family will also feel comforted. ”

March in Jiangnan is often the time when spring is cold, and it is also Tang Lan's favorite time. Since she had her own home with Yanyan in Gangnam, at this time of year, Yanyan wakes up like a hibernating bird and begins to plan various excursions and excursions around the area. For Tang Lan, he has undergone strict training since he was a child, and he knows everything from martial arts to marching formations. But this kind of rigid training not only cultivated his perennial habit of doing things, but also made his personality more and more rigid and dogmatic.

As the eldest grandson of the Tang Sect, almost every step of his life was planned by his father and grandmother. From his participation in the martial arts test to get the martial champion, to the release of troops into the court as an official and general, these are the life resumes of the Tang people step by step. The perennial military camp life made him portray everything in his life with military discipline, and even when he entered the court as an official to take over the government affairs in Jiangnan, he also used the officialdom here as a military camp, so he ran into walls everywhere. If it weren't for the fact that he was a world friend, his mother asked for help from Yumen, he might have been wiped out, and he was either overthrown by his colleagues or plotted by the Jianghu people. And Yanyan, who was sent by the Jade Sect, not only brought assistance in handling government affairs, but also brought a new vision to his life.

Tang Lan's marriage is just like his life's career, has long been planned by his grandmother and father, when he won the martial arts, his grandmother found him a family in the capital military generals, at the age of seventeen, he married his wife in the capital. Although his wife came from a family of military generals, she had long been pampered, and she did not have the boldness and open-mindedness of a martial arts practitioner, but instead had the inherent artificiality, vanity and pickiness of a young lady from an official family in the capital. Since he was chosen by the family, he did his duty as a grandson and husband of the eldest house. But once stationed at the border, or exiled as an official, he did not have the desire to be a lady. Occasionally try to take her to the outside, either to find fault with the cook or to complain about the subordinate. Life away from the capital was useless in her eyes, neither comfortable nor noble and elegant. Since then, Tang Lan has never asked to take office with his family. Even if he returned to Beijing to report on his work or stationed in the capital, he rarely got along with his wife, and stayed away from her hypocritical and troublesome circle of friends who were officials and eunuchs in the capital.

And Yeon-yeon's arrival made him see a completely different side of life and women. Not only can life be as orderly as his barracks, but it can also add a little emotion once in a while. Women are not only beautiful and noble, but they can also live quite realistically. Not only delicate, but also bold. The same woman can be as quiet as a cunning rabbit, or she can be passionate. Every new discovery surprises him, and he becomes obsessed.

After the two parties gave each other, with the acquiescence of their mother, he and Yeon-yeon began to have their own home. Although there is the unhappiness of Yumen, occasionally Tang Lan also needs to go to Beijing to report on his work, and occasionally fulfill his husband's responsibilities at home in the capital, but the warmth and temptation of Jiangnan's family often make him forget about these the moment he steps into the house.

Watching pear blossoms and appreciating the falling Ying, shuttling with her husband in a small boat and wandering in the water lanes of the south of the Yangtze River are all Yanyan's favorites. It's this green season again, Tang Lan took Yanyan early to walk in the wet and cold spring cold among the pear blossoms and peach blossoms all over the mountain. The beauty and the flowers are beautiful, so that he often can't help himself, and Yanyan's boldness and casualness from the rivers and lakes make him even more careless, and often use the shadows of flowers and trees as their curtains.

Miss Yumen has always been known as the first beauty in Jiangnan. Everywhere you go, it's all eye-catching. However, the status of the eldest lady of Yumen made everyone only look at her from afar. It wasn't until Tang Lan hugged the beauty that everyone woke up to the fact that the first beauty in Jiangnan who was high above also needed to be loved. Even if you can only be a concubine, you will not fight for fame and fortune in the depths of your love. This suddenly made Jiangnan talents, talents, dignitaries, and young descendants of Yumen regret it.

Tang Lan traveled with Yanyan, and it has always been extremely intimate, which has made a lot of people who look sideways, they have long been used to it, and they have long ignored all kinds of eyes. However, this year, Tang Lan always had a strange feeling, always felt that there were a pair of eyes that had been watching them from beginning to end, not only the occasional surprise to Yanyan on weekdays, nor was it simply envy or jealousy, giving him the feeling that it was like a leopard in the desert staring at its prey. Observe slowly, appreciate slowly, wait slowly, and explode when the time comes. However, thinking about the status of the Tang Gate and the prestige of the Jade Gate in the south of the Yangtze River, I felt as if I was too worried. But the intuition cultivated by being stationed outside all the year round, especially when he was stationed in Monan, made him feel this kind of peeping every time he went out with Yanyan. But feelings can only be feelings, he has no credentials, and there is no other way than to remind Yeon-yeon to be careful when entering and exiting.

With the arrival of May, it made Yanyan sad again, because Tang Lan needed to go to Beijing at this time of year to report on work. In addition to official duties, he also needs to return to his home in the capital to fulfill his husband's responsibilities. Although I know that my husband's heart is in me, I always feel sad. Unlike when he returned home the year before, Yeon-yeon's sentimentality this year seemed to be particularly deep. Although the reunion after separation has the expected joy and sweetness, Yeon-yeon seems to have a lot more on her mind, and often looks at him and stops. He couldn't guess if it was because he had returned home in the capital, or if there was another reason. And he regretted that he couldn't give her the dignity of the room, which made him feel sorry. And fulfilling her husband's obligations at home in the capital made him ashamed to discuss with Yanyan the pain that might be hidden in her heart. In the months that followed, Yeon-yeon became preoccupied, wondering if it was because she hadn't recovered from the troubles caused by May's home visit, or if the news that followed that her wife's pregnancy made her increasingly unhappy. He thought that giving his wife who lived alone in Jingzhong a child would make the home over there more stable, so that he and Yanyan's life in Jiangnan would be more peaceful, but it seemed that things backfired.

When he, a father, needed to return to Beijing to celebrate his full moon, the melancholy in Yeonyan's eyes made him even more afraid to delve into the cause of the pain.

When he returned from the capital, he thought that the full moon of his wife's son would make him see Yeon-yeon's more melancholy face, but he didn't know that Yeon-yeon, who appeared in front of him, seemed to have stepped out of the shadow and became as happy as before. It made him feel more like he was in the fog. I don't know what is the reason why this year caused Yanyan to be depressed and unhappy, and now it has rained and sunny.

Many years later, Tang Lan finally figured out that the haze at that time did not come from him, but someone else brought a shadow to Yanyan. When the clouds drifted by, Yeon-yeon began to become sunny again. Half a year later, with Xinjie's conception in her body, she presented all the changes of a perfect woman in front of his eyes. The arrival of Xinjie brought them infinite joy and attracted all the attention of the mother. From the discovery of her pregnancy to the birth of her child, Yeon-yeon spent all her efforts and made full preparations. Put aside all worries and worries, and wait for the arrival of your child in peace and tranquility wholeheartedly.

However, a few months after the new death, the dark clouds seemed to drift back again, and Yeon-yeon began to be depressed and irritable again, and this irritability was not caused by the newborn baby as the people around her or the mother had assumed. They have a good enough environment to hire the best wet nurse and subordinates to take care of the children, and Yeon-yeon does not need to feel helpless in front of the children all day. She doesn't need to worry about her livelihood or management. He didn't feel that it was pressure from his father-in-law. Although his father-in-law couldn't let go of the face of Yuda's master because Yanyan gave him a concubine, he still loved his daughter and grandson in his heart. Not to mention the mother-in-law, who sends people to deliver things to her grandson every once in a while. Because of Xinjie's arrival, the relationship between Yeon-yeon and her parents is even more relaxed than before. So what made her so depressed that she died unexpectedly?

Over the years, he has been analyzing one by one the people he investigated and punished in the administration of Jiangnan officials, and the people who were offended by exposing the Jiangnan fraud case,... ... But there was never a clear clue to the real opponent, and it wasn't until he spent some time analyzing the opponent and sorting out everything between Yeon-yeon and him in recent years that he gradually recalled the changes in her mood in those two years. He gradually had another guess, the opponent might not just be hostile to him, or Yanyan's former opponent when she was in Yumen, there was a possibility that she was close to someone.
