Chapter Eighty-Three: Halo
Yan Li came back from duty, and after returning to the main courtyard to change into his official uniform, he was going to say goodbye to his mother.
Qi Tanying told him, "Uncle and aunt of the Du family came to Kyoto, and they are still there at the moment. ”
"When did you come?"
"I arrived just after noon." Qi Tanying said: "They also brought Du Yu back. ”
Yan Li's eyebrows moved slightly when he heard this.
At this moment, Mrs. Yan sent a maid to summon Yan Li, and Qi Tanying was about to go together, but the maid looked embarrassed: "The old lady only asked the slave maid to invite the master." ”
Qi Tanying smiled and didn't say anything.
Yan Li's face sank, and he wanted to take Qi Tanying with him.
Qi Tanying shook off her hand, "You better go by yourself, I have other things to do." ”
Yan Li glanced at her and went out with the messenger.
After he left, Ting Lan was upset for Qi Tanying: "The girl married into the Yan family, not only to manage the affairs of the Yan family, but also to worry about the marriage of the relatives who borrowed the Yan family, but she is old..."
Before she finished speaking, she was stopped by Qi Tanying.
She said to Tinglan: "I know that you are dedicated to my good, and some things are just known in your heart, but if you say it reasonably, it will become unreasonable." ”
Tinglan felt a little blocked in her heart, Qi Tanying patted her hand, "Okay, it's not a big deal, what's so angry." ”
Seeing her with a smile on her face, Tinglan's heart was even more blocked.
On the other side, Yan Li saw his uncle's family at Mrs. Yan's place.
Yan Li's previous warning was still in his ears, and as soon as Du Yu saw him, he hid behind Uncle Du's mother, Yan Li glanced at him and greeted Uncle Du and his wife.
Uncle Du smiled and complimented: "Brother Li is getting more and more promising, he is the Shaoqing of Dali Temple who is the fourth grade at a young age, he is really young and promising." ”
Old Lady Yan sneered, "If you read more books, you won't be able to say such things." "Her sons are all thirty years old, who is young, young and promising?
Even praising his nephew was scolded, and Uncle Du didn't dare to squeak anymore.
Old Mrs. Yan glanced at him and told Yan Li about Uncle Du's business and his loss.
After finishing speaking, she expressed her guess again: "I suspect that your uncle was deceived by someone." ”
Yan Li also had this idea, "I will send someone to investigate, if my uncle is really deliberately framed, I will definitely let that person kowtow in front of my uncle in person to apologize." ”
When Uncle Du heard this, he hurriedly said: "Kowtowing and apologizing is secondary, and the most important thing is to compensate for my losses." ”
"That's nature."
After getting the nephew's assurance, Uncle Du was relieved. Aunt Du was still worried about her dowry and the mortgaged Du family's ancestral house, and Ai Ai said her thoughts.
Mrs. Yan gave Uncle Du another eye knife, and then asked Aunt Du to hand over the dowry list and send it to Qi Tanying, so that she could buy a new one according to the dowry list.
After seeing Aunt Du's dowry list, Qi Tanying didn't know whether to laugh or be angry.
Aunt Du really didn't like to look ugly, and added a lot of things to the dowry list overnight, many of which were fashionable things in recent years. Qi Tanying naturally couldn't take such a list to add, and after hesitating for a while, she went to Mrs. Yan with the dowry list.
When Mrs. Yan saw the dowry list, she was immediately angry. Uncle Du and Aunt Du scolded a bloody dog, and told them that she would let people redeem the ancestral house, but the matter of resetting the dowry list was waived.
When Aunt Du heard this, she naturally refused, crying and making trouble in the courtyard of Mrs. Yan, and even scolded Qi Tanying for being uneasy and kind, and deliberately targeting them. Mrs. Yan was already angry, and when she made such a fuss, she was even more angry and fainted on the spot.
Mrs. Yan was stunned, and Aunt Du didn't dare to make trouble. Qi Tanying hurriedly invited a doctor, and asked people to go to Dali Temple to report to Yan Li.
When Yan Li came back, he met the doctor who treated Mrs. Yan at the door.
Yan Li asked him about Mrs. Yan's physical condition, and the doctor told him: "The old lady is fainting caused by strong liver fire and emotional agitation, just eat some medicinal soup that clears the liver and pours out fire, soothes the liver and regulates qi." ”
Yan Li was relieved when he heard this, and the doctor said again: "The old lady is getting older, and she still needs to be calm." ”
Yan Li wrote it down, asked the doctor to send him out, and went straight to Mrs. Yan.
Although Mrs. Yan hadn't woken up yet, her breathing was steady and her complexion was normal, and most of the worries in Yan Li's heart were gone.
Then he asked Qi Tanying, "What about Madame?" ”
Sister-in-law Wu said: "Mrs. boiled medicine for the old lady." ”
Yan Li asked again about the reason why Mrs. Yan fainted, but Sister-in-law Wu didn't dare to hide it, so she told him 1510.
Yan Li's face became very ugly, he told Sister-in-law Wu to take a good look at Old Lady Yan, and turned around and went to the kitchen.
At this time, there were only two people in the kitchen, Qi Tanying and Ting Lan.
Qi Tanying was sitting in front of the small stove boiling medicine, and Ting Lan muttered on the side: "Madam, the work of boiling medicine is left to Xiangzhi to do, why do you need to take care of it personally." ”
Qi Tanying said: "If I don't do anything, I really can't feel at ease. ”
"But the old lady was stunned by the greed of my uncle and my uncle's wife, and it has nothing to do with you, so why should you feel guilty."
Qi Tanying shook her head: "I should remind my mother in a tactful way." ”
Tinglan was puzzled.
Qi Tanying said: "Except for Yuan Niang, the Du family is all people who have no ability and are insatiable, and Du Yu is even more stupid than his father." The mother takes care of the family affection and cares lightly, not only will not let them learn a lesson, but will fuel their arrogance, if someone wants to deal with the husband and the Yan family, they are ready-made rafts. ”
She sighed: "Blame me for being too anxious, otherwise my mother wouldn't be dizzy." ”
Tinglan comforted her: "You didn't mean it, old lady..."
Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted, "So, you deliberately stabbed this matter in front of my mother?" ”
The familiar angry voice sounded, and the master and servant looked at the master of the voice in unison.
Tinglan's face turned pale, oh my God, when did the uncle come, and did he listen to the previous conversation between her and his wife?
Although Qi Tanying was also a little flustered in her heart, she was much calmer than Tinglan.
Qi Tanying hurriedly got up and walked in front of him, "I didn't mean to let ..."
Yan Li had a gloomy face and did not speak.
Seeing his appearance, Qi Tanying didn't know how to explain it, and asked, "Have you gone to see your mother?" ”
Yan Li still didn't speak, only stared at her for a few moments, turned around and left.
Qi Tanying quietly watched him go away, and her heart was very uncomfortable.
Tinglan was anxious, "Madam, I'll go and explain to the uncle." ”
Her wife did all this for the sake of the uncle and the Yan family, and she didn't mean to make the old lady angry. If the uncle misunderstands, it will definitely affect their relationship as husband and wife.
"Don't go."
Qi Tanying turned her head and stopped the maid who was about to go out, "You are not allowed to go to him and say anything." ”
"But..."
"It's nothing, it's useless to talk about it."
Qi Tanying thought very clearly, if she hadn't deliberately used the dowry list that Aunt Du had done to find her mother-in-law, her mother-in-law would not be angry. Speaking of which, it is true that she did not do it properly.
