Chapter 13
The next day, after breakfast, Song'er pulled out the two horses and prepared to set off with Yan Li.Qing'er hurriedly sent it out, approached Yan Li and said, "Young Master, be careful all the way, please send my regards to Madam and Miss Second."
Yan Li nodded at first, then his mind suddenly changed, and he hurriedly said to Qing'er: "Qing'er, there will be new people in this yard soon, you are too old to stay here anymore, you should follow me Go back and serve your wife." Then, he ordered her to pack her luggage.
Qing'er was shocked when he heard the words, he hurriedly fell to his knees with a "plop", and begged: "Young master, you know that Qing'er is always bullied by others at home, so you let Qing'er come here because you feel sorry for Qing'er Did you come, why did you forget, Young Master?"
Yan Li sneered and said: "Yeah, I used to think that you were always being bullied by others, so I let you hide here for peace and happiness; but now that you are grown up, the old people in the family have almost left, and now these newcomers The ones here are just little girls, so I don’t think they dare to bully you anymore, so you can go back. Besides, it’s not convenient for you to stay by my side as you get older, so it’s better to stay with your wife, so that you can learn how to manage the house If you have the ability, you will be able to plan your life if you are matched with someone in the future."
When Qing'er heard this, she was so frightened that she cried out loudly, and begged: "Master, please be merciful, don't let Qing'er go back, Qing'er has been your servant for life and death, and I would like to serve you here for the rest of my life."
Yan Li impatiently waved his hand and said: "Stop rambling, hurry up and pack your things, otherwise the only way to go is to leave." After finishing speaking, he stopped listening to her rambling, and led the horse out on his own.
Qing'er knelt upright on the spot, refusing to pack her things without saying anything, some indistinct pleadings were mixed with the sobbing, Yan Li was so impatient with crying, she simply walked out of the courtyard, got on her horse, and Tell Uncle Li to come over and urge her.
Li Bo had no choice but to come back and persuade Qing'er to pack up quickly, and the young master was waiting outside the door.Seeing her crying sadly, Aunt Li at the side felt sympathetic and hurried to the outside of the courtyard to plead for Qing'er, but Yan Li said coldly: "Aunt Li, what kind of girl is Qing'er, I believe you are better than anyone else." Clear. It was fine in the past, but now there are guests living in the house, I don’t want to cause the whole family to be turned upside down because of her, so I might as well send her home and let my wife discipline me, if she repents in the future, maybe I can let her come back again.”
After hearing this, Aunt Li knew that Yan Li had made up her mind, so she had no choice but to come back, and went to Biao'er's room to pack some clothes for her on her own initiative.Seeing Aunt Li packing up her things, Qing'er didn't bother to beg anymore, wiped away her tears, followed in, and sent Aunt Li away, then hurriedly cleaned up some of her own frailties, so she couldn't be more merciless Reluctantly, he took another horse and came out of the hospital crying.
Yan Li and Song'er got impatient for a long time, when they saw her come out, they didn't greet her, so they whipped their horses and ran forward.Qing'er had no choice but to follow closely, weeping and sad as she walked.
On the way, Song'er took advantage of Qing'er's inattention and asked Yan Li why he insisted on bringing Qing'er back, Yan Li then told Qing'er about the things that Qing'er had done, Song'er nodded and said: "It should be Get rid of her, otherwise it would be a disaster to stay by my side."
Song'er asked about Daiyu again, Yan Li told him as before, and then instructed: "When you get home, don't mention it in front of your wife, I'm afraid that if your wife is too careless, Miss Lin will be troubled by her master and servant." .”
Song'er hurriedly whispered: "I'm very tight-lipped, young master, just rest assured, lest Qing'er miss the point, young master should tell you. There is another thing, I have to Remind young master, in the past two days, people from the family have come to propose marriage to young master one after another, I am thinking that the reason why my wife asked you to go back now may be for this reason, young master, you must know it well!"
Yan Li frowned after hearing this, and sighed after a long while: "Every year we have to struggle for a while, it seems that this year has started again."
Song'er smiled and said: "Forgive me for talking too much, if you really have a heart for Miss Lin, you must hurry up. As a last resort, you can have raw rice and cook it first. If the wife is not happy, there is nothing I can do."
Yan Li listened, spat at him, and cursed: "You monkey boy, you have some dirty ideas, be careful with your skin!" After saying that, he raised his horsewhip and made a gesture on Song'er's head. With a twitch, Song'er shrank his neck in fright, said "Oh my god", and pinched the horse's belly, and the horse kicked up its hooves and galloped forward.
A group of three people walked northward for about thirty miles, and then arrived at Guyang County.Yan's house is located in a deep courtyard in the west of the county.It turned out that Yan Li's ancestors were also from a family of officials and eunuchs, but it was a pity that Yan Li's grandfather's generation was a little bit depressed. In addition, Yan Li's father hated the intrigues of the officialdom, and after serving as a small official, he resigned. He loves gardening flowers and plants, and died of a serious illness in his forties, leaving his widow, Wei, with one son and two daughters to live on the foundation left by his ancestors.

The good landscapes, famous in the North and South School of Painting, since then there has been an endless stream of people seeking paintings, and what's more, Xu asked for a painting with a thousand dollars.Yan Li was overwhelmed with exhaustion, so he invited a few sword friends to go on a trip together, one for broadening his horizons, and the other for quiet ears, he lived a carefree life, and was only at home for two or three months a year.
Wei's heart was broken for the only son, and in order to tie him down, he arranged a good marriage for him early on, but Yan Li was the most rebellious, and after hearing about this, he made a big fuss and forced him to marry him. The Wei family had to resign the engagement, and since then, Yan Li has bought a house outside without authorization, let alone going home.Wei mobilized the whole family to try and persuade him, but Yan Li refused to accept his softness, so he let him go.
Except for Yan Li, Wei's two daughters are extremely worry-free.The eldest daughter, Yan Rong, is eighteen years old. Two years ago, she married Zhang Yue, the second son of Zhang Tongshan, the head of the county.Tong Shan is also a literati, after seeing a painting by Yan Li, he hastily entrusted someone to Yan's family to propose marriage, intending to get closer to Yan Li.Of course Wei Shi was [-]% happy and happily married his daughter.Fortunately, although the son-in-law Zhang Yue is not as talented as his father, he also found a job in the county government. The Wei family is also satisfied, and only hopes that the second daughter Yan Ying, who has just reached the age of Jiji, can also marry a well-off man. People, then half of her wish has been fulfilled.
