The eldest lady helped the old lady back to the couch and sat down. On the way, she met the maid who went to invite her. From the maid's mouth, she had roughly learned the reason why Qi Yan came here.

"Mom, drink some water." The eldest lady took the water glass from Qi's mother and put it in the old lady's hand.

Seeing that the old lady was relieved, the eldest lady stood up and scolded Cui Qiyan, "Look, you have made your grandmother so angry, why don't you apologize quickly?"

Cui Qiyan stepped forward and knelt down, "My grandson was in a hurry and made my grandmother angry. Please forgive me."

The old lady's expression was still ugly, "After all, you just blamed me for driving Yunling away in the first place."

"Qi Yan, I agreed to let Miss Dong leave. If you have any dissatisfaction, just come to me." The eldest lady said.

"My son doesn't dare," Cui Qiyan said respectfully, "I came here just to find out the truth of what happened and to understand my grandmother's worries."

"Grandma, you don't need to worry too much. It is human instinct to protect people who are important to you. For example, if your mother is in danger, your father will risk everything to save her. The same is true for Dong Jiafu, the grandson. "

"How can it be the same?" the old lady put down the water glass and frowned deeply, "your mother is your father's first wife, no matter what you do for her, it is not too much. But at that time, you only thought that Yunling was your concubine. , you disregarded yourself for a concubine, and where did you put your first wife? I will never allow such a person to be around you."

"Grandma taught me that it was my fault at that time. Now I just want to marry Dong Jiafu. Please don't care about what she said. In order to abide by the agreement with you, she has told you many times.

I avoid it. "

Cui Qiyan, who always reported good news to his family but not bad news, said frankly: "Last time, the Holy Spirit ordered me to go to Yuezhou, where I was chased by Sun Jin. My eyes were poisoned and I couldn't see. In the end, I was seriously injured and fell down the valley."

“Thankfully, people from a medical center in Yangzhou saved me and treated my injuries and detoxified me, so I can stand here.”

When the old lady and the eldest lady heard what he said, they couldn't help but feel frightened.

"I knew it would be dangerous for you to go to Yuezhou. When I came back and asked you if you were injured, you just said it was fine." The eldest lady felt heartbroken and then said, "Now that you are talking about this, could it be that the person who saved you is..."

"My mother guessed it right. The person who saved me and took care of me was Dong Jiafu." Cui Qiyan's eyes became extremely soft. "She followed the doctor in that medical center. If it hadn't been for her, I would have looked like that at that time. Even doctors would be worried about causing trouble and would not dare to save them."

"Later, the poison was cured and I could see again, so I left the hospital. Before returning to Beijing, I went there again. During this period, I never saw her. Even the people from the hospital were in front of me. They never mentioned her and deliberately misled me into thinking it was someone else."

"She must have asked these things in advance," Cui Qiyan smiled bitterly, "I only guessed that she was the one who saved me after she returned to Beijing."

"After she came back, she avoided me even more. She rarely even left the house. Grandma, she has gone so far. Do you still think she is the kind of person who breaks her promise?"

The old lady listened for a long time before speaking: "If it is true as you said, I have misunderstood her. She is affectionate and righteous to you."

"So grandma no longer asks her not to see me?"

The old lady was startled,

Where did she mean this? But then I thought about it and gave in again, "What if I persist, will you not go to see her?"

"No." Cui Qiyan answered without hesitation.

Knowing that he would say this, the old lady said helplessly: "Then what do I say to you? You won't listen anyway."

"But it's important to her. If you don't pursue it anymore, she won't feel guilty when she sees me in the future."

The old lady snorted heavily, "You are thoughtful for her."

The old lady paused, and seeing Cui Qiyan waiting expectantly, she said slowly: "I don't care if you meet in the future, but as for the person you want to marry in the future, I still like Sui'er. Seeing that it's Niangen again. Now, you two are both grown up now, so we can’t delay it any longer.”

Cui Qiyan heard her mention the matter again and said clearly: "Grandma, there is absolutely no possibility between me and Miss Qin. I have already made it clear to her. If grandma is really good for her, she'd better persuade her and don't do anything to me anymore." It takes time.”

"You, why are you so stubborn!" The old lady was angry, "What makes Sui'er unworthy of you?"

"It has nothing to do with any of this. It's just that my heart belongs to someone else and I can no longer tolerate anyone else."

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the eldest lady hurriedly said: "Okay, don't trouble your grandmother here."

"Grandma, have a good rest. Grandson, please leave." Cui Qiyan turned and left.

After he left, the old lady felt uncomfortable holding back some words, so she said to the eldest lady: "Minghui, you can't always let him act like this. It's time to take care of it——"

The eldest lady nodded repeatedly, "What mother said is true. I will talk to him well when I get back."

This sounds a lot like

It was perfunctory, but the old lady couldn't say more. After all, she was old and had handed over the housekeeping rights to her eldest daughter-in-law early. There were many things that she couldn't control even if she wanted to.

After Dong Jialin sent Dong Jiafu home, he went out to the bookstore again.

Dong Jiafu returned to the room, changed her clothes, and asked Xia Zhi to take the plum blossoms given by Lu Siheng to her mother.

Xu Yiwan smiled happily when she received the plum blossoms, and immediately asked Chun Cao to bring the vase and insert it herself.

Dong Jiafu was helping her prune the flower branches.

"The plum blossoms are blooming really well," Xu Yiwan praised, "Afu, is the plum garden really full of plum blossom trees?"

"Yes, there are many varieties in it. After a while, there will be more plum blossoms in full bloom." Seeing that she liked it, Dong Jiafu suggested, "Mom doesn't like snowy days, then find a day with clear weather. , I’ll take my mother to have a look.”

Xu Yiwan did not refuse this time, "Okay."

After a few days, the snow melted, and Feng Jiyuan came to say goodbye.

"Uncle and aunt, the new year is approaching, it's time for me to return to Yingzhou."

Feng Jiyuan's parents only had him as their only child, so he naturally wanted to go back to celebrate the New Year with them.

Dong Jingtang nodded, "It's time to set off. It's just after the winter solstice and less than thirty-nine days later, so it's better to hit the road early."

"Send a message to your parents for us." Xu Yiwan said.

"I will," Feng Jiyuan handed over his hand, "I will also wish my uncle and aunt a good year in advance."

On the day Feng Jiyuan left, Dong Jiafu and Dong Jialin took the things Xu Yiwan had prepared for Feng Meng and his wife to see him off.

The three of them watched the luggage being loaded into the car outside the door.

When parting, Feng Jiyuan was very reluctant to say goodbye, "Jialin, Afu, thank you very much for coming to see me off. I will be back soon after the New Year."

"

Dong Jialin stepped forward and patted his shoulder, "Okay, when you come back, I'll treat you to a drink."

"Be careful on the road and have a safe journey." Dong Jiafu said with a smile.

"Okay, see you next year." Feng Jiyuan smiled warmly.
