Chapter 77 Father and Daughter
The eldest brother Yan Hongyuan gave birth to a man and a woman, and the second brother gave birth to two sons, but here he was alone, the woman had a bad belly and gave birth to two daughters in a row.
The most terrible thing is that these two girls have been spoiled by them since childhood, and none of them have a good temper like a lady from a family, and they have to compete with Qingcheng in everything.
They must have everything that Qingcheng has, but if Qingcheng doesn’t have, they must be shown in front of Qingcheng as soon as possible.
So if they ask them to make fun of each other, they will be a little difficult for these two girls to find out where this prescription comes from.
"After going back today, let's talk to Qingyun and Qingyu well. After all, this is related to whether we can make money in the future. If they want to have good food and clothing in the future, everything is no worse than Qingcheng, then they have to have a good relationship with Qingcheng. At least during this period, they can no longer be as good as when they were together in the family as usual." Yan Hongsheng rarely picked up his brother's attitude and said to Yan Honghu solemnly.
Yan Honghu nodded repeatedly and sighed. He didn't know if he had listened to Yan Hongsheng's words. The two of them stayed in the newly purchased dye workshop for a long time, and they were even reluctant to do so. Suddenly, they heard the shopkeeper Liao shouting excitedly, saying that he had already thought about how to make this prescription and no longer had to worry about the secret recipe in the lady's hand.
The second brother will be completely separated tomorrow, and the third brother will be separated. Yan Hongyuan felt indescribable discomfort and loneliness in his heart. Although he has been working hard over the years, he has never said that he is sorry for the second brother and the third brother in any aspect.
Even when I was in the most difficult time, I never said anything. Even if the second and third brother suffered a slight grievance, I would always squeeze them, even if I paid for the advancement of my own money, I would have to divide their money first.
Because of this, Qingcheng and her brother Yan Qingzhi and her brother, have complained a lot about her, but even so, she dared to touch her conscience and say that there has never been a place that I am sorry for them, so why do you have to split up?
"Dad, why are you still sitting outside?" Yan Qingcheng, who was carrying a lantern in his own hand, looked extremely quiet and elegant under the soft light. He slowly walked to the corridor pavilion and sat down in front of Yan Hongyuan, and asked with a little absent-minded smile.
"The night is not too cold, sit here for a while and be quiet." Yan Hongyuan looked at Yan Qingcheng with a smile. After seeing his daughter who is as beautiful as a flower and extremely sensible, it seemed that any troubles could be left behind.
Whether it is his own daughter or son, Yan Hongyuan felt deeply proud of himself, and even compared to this family business, he felt a sense of accomplishment.
"Oh..." Yan Qingcheng looked at Yan Hongyuan's heart-like smile, leaned on the table in the pavilion with one hand, then buried his head in his arms, sighed, and said in a muffled voice: "Dad, if you have anything to tell your daughter tomorrow, just say it."
"Oh... my daughter understands me. She is becoming smarter and more sensible. Dad must find you a good family in the future, otherwise he will not be worthy of my daughter's understanding." Yan Hongyuan looked at Yan Qingcheng buried her head between her arms, and a trace of distress and reluctance flashed in his eyes.
"If my daughter doesn't get married, I will serve you for the rest of my life." Yan Qingcheng raised her head. She really couldn't imagine that if she got married, her brother would work in Binzhou again. In this huge family, her father would be alone, and she would live a lonely life.
"Okay, if you don't get married, I will ask you to blame me every day in heaven. I will be reluctant to marry you out. When you become an old girl, my father will go to find your mother. You are left alone. What should you do." Yan Hongyuan continued to smile, with more and more reluctance in his eyes.
On weekdays, he is not a sentimental person, nor is he who can easily reveal his emotions. But the more he thinks about the separation of his family tomorrow, Yan Hongyuan feels inexplicably unable to let go, just like he wants to separate himself tomorrow, and his brothers and sisters will part ways from now on.
"Well, then dad, let's wait for me to become an old girl." Yan Qingchengqiang said with a naughty smile on his own.
"I'll give what I should give tomorrow. Our family doesn't care about that anymore." Yan Hongyuan patted his legs, thinking that he hadn't listened to the opera for a long time, so why not go to the opera tomorrow, and then continued with a heavy feeling: "Dad has been thinking about it for a long time these days. Isn't the hat of the emperor merchant the most unwilling to let go? Dad figured it out, don't you, your second uncle and your third uncle are willing to ask for it, so give it to them. We'll just guard this little family business."
"Dad, you are..."
"You heard from my father that your brother is not at home and has to take on the responsibilities of the court. It will be a lifelong thing. Whether you are promoted or for the people in the future depends on him. He doesn't use much money at home, even if it is used, it will be enough for him to use it. Your dowry father has prepared for you a long time ago. I dare not say that he is worse than princes and nobles, but at least my father must be worthy of your mother and you. Dad doesn't want you, a girl, to show up every day, and don't want your lifelong affairs to be delayed because of these bad things. So if your family business is smaller, won't you have more time?" Yan Hongyuan looked at Yan Qingcheng. The father and daughter had never talked like this for a long time.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Yan Qingcheng was puzzled, but what Yan Hongyuan said made her feel that she didn't feel wronged at first, and she began to feel a little aggrieved.
Involuntarily, looking at her father who had white hair, Yan Qingcheng's eyes began to turn red, with her own grievances and helpless heartache for Yan Hongyuan. After all, as Yan Hongyuan's daughter, she also knew very well that her father was so sentimental and moved tonight, and that it was all because of the division.
"Tomorrow is a good day. There are contemporary scholars discussing in West Lake and a flower festival for tourists to watch. But you... can't go out with your friends like other girls, but you have to go... Doing this family-divided thing, my father can't bear it." Yan Hongyuan coughed several times, but he still kept reminding Yan Qingcheng that if you can agree tomorrow and accept it, you can share everything for them. Leave some money at home enough for the house.
Yan Qingcheng accompanied Yan Hongyuan to the gate of the courtyard holding a lantern. Yan Qingcheng, who had been silent for a long time, stopped walking, looked at his father's straight back, thought for a while and said, "Dad, our family has today, you have worked hard all your life. Even if your daughter is unfilial, she will not let these fall into the hands of others and let others enjoy their own fruits. Even if she wants to lose some, it is for your sake, but... what should not be compromised tomorrow, what should not be divided, the daughter will not give in at all, and will not give them at all."
"Money is..."
"Dad, please rest earlier, your daughter is back." Yan Qingcheng looked at the back, interrupted Yan Hongyuan's words, and walked back with a lantern.
Yan Hongyuan's helplessness and sighing look when he talked to him tonight was echoing in his mind, but Yan Qingcheng was becoming more and more determined in his thoughts. No matter what he said tomorrow, they would not succeed easily!
Even if they wanted to split up, even if the craftsmen such as Manager Liao were secretly dug up by them, it is not certain who can take the position of Emperor Shang!
"I don't know if I can believe what that idiot said! I'm so anxious!" Yan Qingcheng, who was walking faster and faster, thought about his thoughts, and finally inexplicably fell on Ye Qing.
Even at the end, when he walked into her own courtyard, he looked at the places where the imperial guards were staying on weekdays not far away, and he couldn't help but stomp his feet. He could see the person and ask the person to hand over the prescription he had made in his hand to himself.
"His eldest and second uncles are both his uncles, and the high tables and low benches are all wood..." When it was still dawn, Ye Qing was awakened by Jinse's knock on the door.
So after washing up, Ye Qing looked at the light that had already lit up on the second floor before he washed up. He howled half his throat, and was covered with a wet handkerchief on his face by Jinse next to him.
"What? Are you embarrassed? Or do you think I am embarrassed?" Ye Qing, who was holding a wet handkerchief after wiping his face, looked at Jinse's awkward appearance, and asked knowingly.
"It doesn't sound nice at all, and it's not dawn yet, if someone hears it..."
"Tsk, are you afraid of clamoring your lady? By the way, why are you doing so early today?" Ye Qing also wanted to wipe her wet palm that she had just wiped her face on Jinse's face. She didn't expect that the little girl was very clever, but she actually avoided it.
While helping Ye Qing wrung out the wet handkerchief, he said, "I'm going to go out of the city to West Lake today. How can I get up early if I don't know how many people will be there by then, so I'd better go earlier."
"Are there so many people? Isn't it just a debate? If you want me to say that, it's just two charlatans, it's a bit of knowledge, but it's not necessarily the knowledge of them. It's suitable for everyone in our Song Dynasty. Do you know? Just watch the fun, and it's so serious. Your lady asked you to get up so early?" Ye Qing said while eating.
"What does it mean?" Bai Chun's voice was like a ghost every morning. Every time, after Ye Qing sat down to have a meal in the morning, she appeared silently at the kitchen door.
"What does it mean? That is to say, knowledge is knowledge, but knowledge is not something that can be eaten as food, and not every reason is suitable for everyone. Whether it is Zhu Xi or Lu Jiuyuan, it is their own academic dispute. There is no need for you to mix it up, just pretend to be a monkey show... Oh... I haven't finished it yet." The bowl in Ye Qing's hand was snatched by Bai Chun and then handed it to Jinse. It seemed that Ye Zhong had to eat half full and have to go to work as a job.
"Then you just use your fallacies to fill your stomach? Whether Mr. Zhu or Mr. Lu's academic performance is suitable for everyone is not your final say." Bai Chun said coldly.
"Why are you so angry when you wake up early in the morning? So what's wrong?" Ye Qing wanted to grab the bowl from Jinse's hand, but the girl had already rebelled at this time, hiding behind Bai Chun, and only looked at her with innocent eyes.
He took back his hand to grab the job in vain. Looking at his sister-in-law who gave up his job and obviously drove him away quickly, he still curled his lips a little angry and said, "Academic people may not necessarily become officials. Being an official does not necessarily require profound knowledge. Just like a farmer who does not need to know it, it is like a restaurant that does not need to study "Mengxi Bitan", it is like leading a army to fight... I will leave now."
