After receiving the imperial edict, everyone in the Yan family was packing their things. They only waited for Yan Zhigao to hand over to the new magistrate of Ningmen Prefecture, and then the family set off for Beijing.
This year, the Yan family is very happy and busy.
After receiving the news that the Yan family was coming to Beijing, people who were close friends with the Yan family came to congratulate them one after another.
On the seventh day of the first lunar month, Mr. Su San and his wife also came to the Yan family.
There is no other way. The Yan family is going to Beijing, and Yan Wenkai has not returned from northern Xinjiang. They have to take the initiative to discuss the marriage of their two children. It is best to set a date as soon as possible.
You know, girls can't delay any more than boys.
Of course, they are also a little worried. They are worried that the Yan family will go to the capital, meet a more outstanding noble daughter from aristocratic families, and want to break off the engagement.
Mrs. Li knew the reason for their coming. Her son and Su Shiyu's birth dates had coincided with each other for a long time. She had also found someone to calculate their days. As soon as Mrs. Su San came, she took out the days calculated by the eminent monks in the temple and gave them to her. Mrs. Su San chooses.
Seeing that the Yan family was so proactive, Madam Su San smiled a lot more on her face.
After some discussion, the two families finally decided on the date.
After setting the date, Mrs. Su San finally let go of her worries and started to talk about something else: "When I just entered the door, I saw that your gifts had been packed away?"
Mrs. Li smiled and shook her head: "Not so fast. There are many old people and children in the house, so it is not easy to clean up. What you see is the salute of Wen Xiu and his wife. Wen Xiu is going to attend the Spring Festival this year, so my master asked him to go to Beijing early and clean up at the same time. Let¡¯s go to the house in Jingli.¡±
Mrs. Su San nodded and praised: "Wenxiu's knowledge is solid, and he will definitely be on the gold list this time."
Mrs. Li¡¯s face instantly burst into laughter: ¡°Then I¡¯ll lend you some good advice.¡±
Yan Wenxiu and his wife left on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, while the rest of the Yan family waited until the end of the first lunar month, after Yan Zhigao had handed over to the new prefect, before they prepared to leave.
The day before leaving, the second house and his family came in a hurry.
"Brother, you are going to Beijing, why didn't you tell us, don't you regard me as your younger brother?" As soon as he came, Yan Zhiyuan looked at Yan Zhigao with an aggrieved look.
Yan Zhigao looked at Yan Zhiyuan and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Seeing the eldest brother in trouble, Mrs. Yan took the initiative to speak: "I asked your eldest brother not to tell you."
Yan Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment and said in a low voice: "Mom, you don't want my son anymore?"
Mrs. Yan snorted: "No one wants you, but don't forget why we let you go back to your hometown."
Yan Zhiyuan quickly promised: "Mother, eldest brother, and eldest sister-in-law, I swear to you that I will never dare to mess around again."
Mrs. Yan sighed: "Second child, our family has been divided. I know what you are thinking. You think that the third child follows the eldest brother but leaves you behind. You are unhappy, right? ?¡±
"I explained it to you today. It's not because of the boss that Lao San's family went to the capital. Wen Tao has made meritorious service in Northern Xinjiang. When the army commander returns to the court, he will be rewarded. When the time comes, Lao San The family also has to move out.¡±
"The capital is no better than other places. If you don't have the skills, you won't be able to establish yourself there. After your family leaves, I ask you, what do you want to do for a living?"
Yan Zhiyuan pursed his lips and said nothing.
Mrs. Yan looked at Yan Wenjie: "Wenjie, listen to your grandmother, take your parents back to your hometown, and study hard. As long as you can read, can your uncle and several brothers help you?"
"Even if I let you follow me to the capital now, what can you do? It is better to stay in your hometown. At least there are not so many things in your hometown, so you can calm down and concentrate on studying knowledge. What do you think?"
Looking into his grandmother¡¯s earnest and loving eyes, Yan Wenjie stood up and said, ¡°Grandma said that I must go back to my hometown and study hard.¡±
Hearing this, Mrs. Yan immediately grinned: "The descendants of my Yan family are all sensible governors."
Yan Zhiyuan's son was persuaded and moved his lips. He still wanted to fight for it, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by his son: "Dad, didn't you prepare a gift for grandma and the others when you came here this time? Take it out and show it to everyone. Look."
Yan Zhiyuan was helpless and got up to get something.
Seeing that her second wife really couldn't follow her to the capital, Mrs. Sun thought for a while and looked at Mrs. Li: "Sister-in-law, we don't have to go to the capital, but please take Yihuan and Yile with you. I'm a loser." You don¡¯t know how to look at people, the two girls are quite old, please help them find a good in-law."
Mrs. Li still can¡¯t hide her thoughts.I went and looked at the old lady.
The old lady had already spoken out to stop her son and grandson. Now looking at her two granddaughters, she really couldn't say no and could only remain silent.
Mrs. Li sighed in her heart and looked at Mrs. Sun: "Second brother and sister, as the eldest aunt, it is my duty to help my two nieces see each other, but there are some things we have to say first."
Mrs. Sun nodded quickly: "You tell me, I'm listening."
Mrs. Li: "This marriage is easy to talk about. I will try my best to choose them. If I really want to find a suitable family, I will tell you in advance. However, I cannot guarantee my life after marriage."
"You and I are both people who have been through this. We need to live this life by ourselves. If the two children live well in the future, then everyone will be happy. If they live poorly I am just saying this in case. If so, If it doesn¡¯t go well, you can¡¯t blame me.¡±
Mrs. Sun smiled and said, "That's impossible."
Mrs. Li did not believe her words, but looked at Yan Zhiyuan and Yan Wenjie: "I am not saying this to shirk responsibility. There are no absolutes in anything. If you can accept it, I will take over the marriage of the two children. If not, I will take over the marriage of the two children." Accept it, it¡¯s better to talk it out as early as possible to avoid hurting our feelings.¡±
Although Yan Zhiyuan was unhappy that he could not follow her to the capital, he still recognized Mrs. Li's personality and immediately smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, what are you saying? Of course we believe you."
Mrs. Li nodded and said nothing more.
Mrs. Yan knew that the eldest daughter-in-law did not want to interfere with the affairs of the second wife, and she also knew the temperament of the second wife. She thought about it and said, "I will also watch from the side."
¡°It means that she also had an eye on the marriage between Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile. How the two of them live in the future cannot be blamed on Mrs. Li.
Yan Wenjie and his wife smiled sincerely when they saw Mrs. Li taking over the marriage of their two younger sisters.
There are no good families in the countryside, but it is different in the capital. Even if the two sisters cannot marry into an official family, they are still much better than the families they found back home.
Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile were also very happy. After staying in their hometown, they realized how comfortable it was to live with their uncle's family. There was no one in their hometown who could chat with them.
After saying goodbye to Yan Zhiyuan and his family, Yan Zhigao and his family set off for Beijing.
On the boat, Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile looked at their parents and brother-in-law who were getting further and further away on the shore with reluctance, their eyes a little red.
After no more people were seen, Yan Yihuan pulled Yan Yile into the cabin: "Let's go and talk to the third sister."
Yan Yile nodded, walked a few steps, and suddenly said: "Fortunately, eldest sister is not here, otherwise, you and I may not be able to follow you to Beijing."
Hearing this, Yan Yihuan quickly looked around and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw no one. Then she looked at Yan Yile sternly: "Little sister, how many times have I told you, you can't do this to big sister. Generally hostile."
Yan Yile pouted: "Am I wrong?" If the eldest sister hadn't fanned the flames, how would their second wife be driven back to their hometown?
Yan Yihuan sighed: "Little sister, today is different from the past. Now the Yan family has been divided. We and the eldest family are no longer a family. The eldest aunt no longer has the obligation to take care of us."
"You talk about eldest sister behind her back. If she finds out, what do you think she will think?"
Yan Yile snorted, lowered her head and stopped talking.
Yan Yihuan frowned: "If you still want to marry into a good family, please control your mouth. We are going to Beijing with uncle and the others. It is not an exaggeration to say that we are living under someone else's roof. Stop being willful."
Yan Yile snorted and said reluctantly: "I know." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
