Chapter 197 Best Relatives

The unknown Shaohua was taken back to the courtyard by Yan Kaizhi. Seeing that he did not panic to settle her down, he made people pay attention. After tossing all night, after getting up, he was in a hurry to say hi to Mrs. Yan. Shaohua almost forgot that he hadn't eaten yet. Looking at the snacks full of the table, she opened her belly and the chopsticks in her hand did not stop. A steamed bun was secretly frightened by Yan Kai's side, and he quickly poured tea for her for fear that she would chop.

"Do you usually eat like this at home?" Sure enough, after holding a few steamed buns, Shaohua felt a little stuck in his throat and drank water desperately. Yan Kaizhi got up to help her breathe, so that she swallowed what was in her mouth.

"I've never been so hungry at home." As soon as Shaohua said it himself, he felt that something was wrong. He blushed and hurriedly buried his head in water.

Yan Kaizhi didn't think so much, but he saw her shyness, the corners of her mouth raised gently, and did not break her disguise.

Probably really hungry. The two swept away the breakfast on the table, and Shaohua also had a less elegant hiccup. Compared with Shaohua's casualness and openness, Yan Kaizhi looks much more elegant. From his eating behavior, he has not been able to connect him as a general. On the contrary, Shaohua is much more bold.

Looking at the smile of the maid next to him, Shaohua realized the difference between the two. He looked at him with some contempt and said sourly, "Why are you a big man eating so awkwardly?"

Yan Kai's mouthful of tea almost spewed out, and his eyes fell on the crumbs at the corners of her mouth. He reached out to wipe it for her and smiled and ridiculed, "I didn't expect your scholarly wife to eat so boldly. I have to go back to ask my mother-in-law how to teach a woman like you."

I didn't expect Yan Kaizhi to refute. Shaohua was embarrassed and curled his lips, "I don't usually eat like this. I'm just hungry today." He swept his malicious smile and said, "Aren't you hungry?"

Yan Kaizhi nodded and agreed with her words, but his smile stained his eyes, "I'm also hungry, but I often go to the palace. There are not many opportunities to eat as rich as you." Seeing that she became angry and punched pink, Yan Kaizhi decisively changed the topic. Take her up and walk to the study, leaving an empty plate for the maids to clean up.

"You don't want to ask why my mother didn't let us see them, did you?" Yan Kaizhi's words successfully made Shaohua forget what happened and looked at him like a child who was eager to learn. Yan Kaizhi pulled her to his side and sat down. He sighed faintly, as if he didn't want to mention it. This should start with my relatives."

"Actually, my identity is particularly kind to the second master now." This is also one of the reasons why Yan Kaizhi has been unwilling to inherit his father's title. He is too young and does not have much merit. The larger the official title, the greater the risk. The ancestral family is not prominent, but the mother and the current empress dowager are cousins. At that time, my grandmother was weak, and my grandfather didn't have a new marriage, so he kept a daughter. My aunt and grandmother were alone and always let my mother play with my wife, so my aunt often grew up with the empress dowager's mother when she was a child.

This is the first time Shaohua has learned about Yan Kai's family. As soon as she heard about the Empress Dowager's family, she exclaimed, "Isn't that on the other side of Pingzhou?"

Yan Kaizhi smiled at her and praised her, "That's right, it's the He family."

For the situation of the Yan family, Shaohua can be said to only know the skin. She was once teased by Xin Zixuan that she liked a person just because of the heroic posture of his eyes, saying that her love could not last long. Maybe it's anger, or maybe the scene is so deeply imprinted in her memory that as long as she remembers it, it's enough for her to keep waiting.

She knew him because of Yan Su's tragic death, but because of this, the news of the Yan family seemed to have been cut off by an invisible hand. Even if she pestered her father, she never received a complete and positive reply. Only in some rumors know that Yan Su is a loyal, patriotic man, and the unanimous praise heard by others is that Yan Kai's legacy is the wind of his father.

Shaohua saw that he was lost in thought and asked softly, "I heard that the senior official used to be a general under the He family?"

Yan Kaizhi was surprised by Shaohua's understanding of his father and nodded and replied, "That's right! My parents met in Pingzhou. When the Empress Dowager married into the Second Prince's Mansion, she specially asked the late emperor, that is, the second prince at that time, to make a job for his father in the capital and complete a marriage.

No wonder Mrs. Yan and the Empress Dowager He have such a good relationship. It turns out that it's not just because of her aunts and cousins, "So, the Empress Dowager is still their celebrity?"

For mentioning the old story, Yan Kaizhi's smile was no longer light, but a little indifferent, "It's such a thing, but at the beginning, my grandfather refused to let my mother marry. Because my grandfather has such a daughter as my mother, and my father comes from a poor family, I feel that I can't deserve my mother.

Shaohua clapped his hands and suddenly realized, "So the Empress Dowager asked the former emperor to promote senior officials to complete their marriage. The late emperor saw that the official was loyal and down-to-earth and a useful talent, so he was relieved to release him. In order to repay his kindness, the senior official personally brought out a strict army and guarded a city. But because the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and he has meritorious deeds and people's hearts, he was remembered by villains, so he was set a trap to falsely accuse the enemy! Oh, my God, isn't this the end of Han Xin?

Yan Kaizhi heard that she was eloquent and catchy. There was only a piece of shocking wood left. A book case looked like a storytelling under the overpass. He suddenly laughed and his depression was swept away. "Where did you listen to the version?" It turned out to be the right way.

Shaohua looked at him with a smile, and his heart was also sweet. He shook his hand and asked, "Say it quickly, is what I just said right?"

Yan Kaizhi thought for a moment and nodded reluctantly, "Almost, because his father himself is from a soldier, so he has his own way for both generals and soldiers." Those who win the hearts of the people will win the world. Yan Su does not need to win the world, but it is enough to be loved by the people of Lingjing. You must have heard about what happened later.

Shaohua nodded, and then it was when she met him. But what does this have to do with my aunt?

The hard-won eyebrows immediately raised again, and Yan Kaizhi looked a little unhappy. "Dad only depended on his aunt for his life. Before entering Beijing, my aunt had already promised to have a marriage. When she saw her father in Beijing, she divorced and followed him to Beijing. Later, the family chased her to Beijing to scold her father without trust him."

A woman has three virtues, from her father at home, married her husband, and her husband dies from her son. Because Yan Su's parents died young, it was natural for Yan Su to arrange marriage for her eldest sister. However, when Aunt Yan saw her brother going to Beijing, she didn't want to marry a rural man, so she secretly followed her brother to the capital behind her back and told Yan Su that she had suffered all the grievances at her mother-in-law's house. When her mother-in-law's family came to be held accountable, Yan Su was caught in the middle and embarrassed, and Aunt Yan refused to go back with her husband's family. In the end, Mrs. Yan came forward to help solve the problem, negotiated and asked her husband's family to write a book and leave the book, and gave many silver to calm the disturbance.

But Aunt Yan has been living in Beijing with Yan Su and his wife since then. When she saw the prosperity of the capital for the first time, Aunt Yan was a little fascinated. Mrs. Yan asked someone to marry Aunt Yan, but when she heard that she had been divorced, the serious big family did not want to marry her, but Aunt Yan, who had a slightly poor family background, looked down on her. After two years, Mrs. Yan was pregnant, and Aunt Yan still stayed at her brother's house to eat and drink for nothing.

At that time, the Yan family's income was not rich, but Aunt Yan was a rich master and made friends with a group of officials like wives in Beijing. In order to get along, he always comes to ask his sister-in-law for money, and he doesn't look like a wife at all. Mrs. Yan is pregnant. While doing housework, she also has to help subsidize the family. Her life is quite comfortable. She doesn't want this aunt to disturb her happy life. It was hard to hear her say that in the alternation of her handkerchiefs, she introduced a Langjun, a catcher in the government office of Jingzhao Mansion, and the younger brother of Aunt Langzhong of the Ministry of Industry.

Mrs Yan was glad that she finally sent the big Buddha out, but she didn't expect Aunt Yan to ask for her dowry to marry. Mrs. Yan fell off the table angrily. She was the only daughter in the family. Her father naturally did everything to add makeup for fear that she would not be able to take care of her. Naturally, Mrs. Yan is not willing to mess around. For the sake of her husband's official career and for the sake of her future children, she will save money after passing through the door. I didn't expect that this aunt had been eating and drinking for so many years, and she finally went out and wanted to be greedy for her dowry.

Seeing that Mrs. Yan refused to give it, Aunt Yan immediately played a bitter card, saying that she and her brother depended on each other for their lives. Since she was a child, she took her eldest brother to pee with shit. Unexpectedly, the daughter-in-law he married was so unsympathetic. Mrs. Yan was furious. She thought that when Aunt Yan escaped from marriage, she took the money to persuade her husband's family, but she didn't expect to be bitten back.

Knowing that her sister-in-law refused to nod, Aunt Yan lost her temper. When the Qi family came to propose marriage, she said that Mrs. Yan refused to let her marry and forced her to work at home.

Aunt Yan's friends with those so-called handkerchiefs made Mrs. Yan extremely angry. As a result, she accidentally stepped on her foot, and the eight-month-old child was gone. When everyone saw her sitting on the ground and howling, there was a bright red under her body. Suddenly, the trees fell down and scattered, and all of them dispersed. Aunt Yan didn't expect it to be like this. She was so scared that she ran away, and no one called for help. A kind passer-by helped her get up and called her a doctor until Yan Su came home, and the child could not be saved.

Yan Su was also furious with her sister's behavior, but she could not be found left and right. When he couldn't find anyone for three days, Yan Su was angry and couldn't help but worry. After all, he was his only relative.

Mrs. Yan lay on **, looked at her husband restless, and said to him, "Go to her and tell her that I will pay her dowry, and she is not allowed to step into my house again!"

Yan Su was scared by his wife's words, but he also understood her mood and nodded to comfort her before turning around and going out.

What Yan Su didn't expect was that Aunt Yan lived at Qi's house in the past three days, and when he found her, Aunt Yan and Qi Jiu had the truth of husband and wife. In anger, he almost wanted to break the friendship. If it hadn't been for Aunt Yan's kowtowed and apologize, Yan Su would have turned home.

At this point, Yan Su said that no matter how much it was, it was in vain. She had to arrange Aunt Yan's marriage, collected 50 taels as a dowry for her, and returned her wife's dowry.
