Chapter 354 This is impossible
"You're even plotting against your own daughter now? How did you become like this?"
An Yan looked at Su Yan'er and felt that the question was unnecessary.
Perhaps she has always been this kind of person, and he has never truly seen through her.
He even questioned himself in the darkness, wondering why he had loved her so madly, to the point of harming his own flesh and blood.
For someone like him to end up in this state is perhaps retribution.
"That's enough, I'm tired."
After saying that, An Yan turned and walked into the house. He still had a lot of books to copy.
Although many books are now printed, many valuable books still need to be handwritten, and the handwriting must be beautiful. It is because of this that he is able to barely support his family.
When the new emperor ascended the throne, he registered the displaced people in the household register. The court organized these people to reclaim wasteland, build villages, and provide them with a place to live.
Even many women can go out to work now, a life An Yan never imagined before.
Things are peaceful and stable now, and it doesn't seem so bad.
"An Yan, explain yourself! Speak up! What kind of man are you to run away like this!"
Su Yan'er chased after her, but the door to the room was already closed. She punched and kicked at the door, cursing and swearing, spewing out all sorts of nasty words.
In the past year or so, Su Yan'er has completely turned into a shrew, spewing all sorts of nasty things at the drop of a hat.
An Yuping ignored the commotion and cleaned up the broken bowls on the ground.
An Shiqing walked out without saying a word; there was still a lot of work to be done in the fields.
Su Yan'er was going crazy when none of her son, daughter, or husband paid any attention to her.
She was tearing at An Yuping as she was about to go find that Tie Niu and make him give up on his idea as soon as possible. How could her daughter marry a peasant?
"Mother, let me go, I won't go!" An Yuping struggled.
"No, you have to go now, and explain yourself right now!"
Su Yan'er pulled her daughter along, while An Yuping's outer garment was torn.
The two left the courtyard, but An Shiqing heard the commotion and hurriedly turned back. "Mother, are you crazy? How will my sister face people after this?"
"You all ignore me, don't you? Fine, then none of you will have an easy time! I am your mother, and I always will be!"
Su Yan'er's eyes flashed with madness, "If you don't explain yourself clearly, I'll strip you naked and let everyone see that you're just a restless slut!"
"Mother, please spare me! Don't you think I've suffered enough?"
An Yuping cried sobbing.
The commotion in the courtyard was so great that several families from the neighborhood came to see what was going on.
A horse-drawn carriage arrived in the village.
As soon as Da Ya got off the bus, some villagers started watching from a distance.
As if she didn't notice the stares, she had Chu Shiyi tie up the carriage and headed into the village.
There seemed to be some commotion ahead. Da Ya frowned and was about to go over when she heard the sound of horses' hooves.
Turning around, he saw the person on horseback and asked in surprise, "What are you doing here?"
Chu Xiujie nimbly dismounted from the horse. "You came with me, what are you doing in this village?"
This area is full of villages built by refugees, and he was worried about Daya coming alone.
Chu Shiyi, who was tying up the carriage: Lord Chu, why don't you look at me? Am I not a human being?
Da Ya laughed, "I met a promising student a couple of days ago. It seems that the child lives in this village. If we can help her study hard, it will be a way out for her."
She saw the defiant spirit in the girl's eyes.
Chu Xiujie said, "This kind of thing can be handled by Eleven. Why do you have to make the trip yourself?"
"I didn't see her during the National Day holiday, so I thought I'd come and find her myself." Daya thought it would be best if she could persuade her parents.
Chu Xiujie followed Da Ya, saying, "You underestimate him too much. You tell him the time and place, and he will definitely be able to find the person for you."
“Let’s go back. It’s probably going to rain soon, and the roads here will be difficult to travel. I’ll be your driver. Just let Eleven stay and look for people.”
Chu Shiyi, who was dressed as a maid, secretly pursed her lips: It's going to rain soon. Is he not human? Doesn't he care about getting wet?
Just as the two were about to leave, a village man dressed in shorts came running by, tripped and fell, splashing mud and water onto Daya's skirt.
An Shiqing was startled and hurriedly apologized in a flustered manner, "I'm sorry, sir, I didn't mean to."
Before Da Ya could speak, a man in a long robe was seen walking briskly, with a woman chasing after him.
"An Yan, come back and explain yourself clearly. Do you hate me now? You were the one who swore to take care of me for the rest of your life..."
Chu Xiujie stroked his chin, looking at the person walking over, "An Yan?!"
I never expected to find this person here.
Hearing that someone recognized her, An Yan was stunned. "You are..."
After recognizing Chu Xiujie, his entire expression changed.
Chu Xiujie laughed, "So it's Patriarch An, how have you been!"
An Yan is really down on her luck these days, but good looks are still a big advantage, even if she's wearing coarse linen clothes.
Daya looked at An Yan, but only glanced at him for a moment before looking away.
An Yan bowed, glancing at Daya out of the corner of her eye. "Greetings, Lord Chu. There is no longer a head of the An family in this world. The child was ignorant and offended Lord Chu and this young lady."
He wondered why Chu Xiujie had appeared. Had Lin Anyuan sent him? He'd heard the two were on good terms.
Are they here to take their entire family's lives, or...?
"It's nothing." Da Ya knew An Yan's identity and suddenly wanted to go back.
He said to Chu Xiujie, "Let's go early. Grandmother is getting married soon, so we need to leave for the capital as soon as possible to make it in time."
Grandmother? An Yan recognized her. This Lin Qing Shuang was the headmistress of the Women's Academy and the daughter of Lin An Yuan. She had recently been praised by Emperor Jing.
So the grandmother she mentioned is...that woman is still alive?
Is she getting married now?
Overwhelmed with shock, An Yan blurted out, "Is Lin Anyuan's biological mother getting married? And who is she marrying?"
"What? That woman is getting married? She's still alive? An Yan, you're not lying to me, are you? She's dead? You're a complete liar."
Su Yan'er glared at An Yan with resentment, "Hahaha, An Yan, what good will it do you to ask? You don't actually want to see her and send her off to get married, do you?"
Chu Shiyi kindly said, "Once Consort Jing gives birth to the Crown Prince, she will soon become the Empress, the most noble woman in the entire Xia Dynasty. You will never see someone of your status in this lifetime, so stop dreaming."
What are these two doing, putting on a one-man show? They're acting like they're crazy. I just want to stab them.
"Your Majesty, how is this possible?" Su Yan'er couldn't believe it.
That woman was just a slightly prettier country woman, and she was disfigured. How could she possibly become an empress?
Could she be dreaming today? This dream is far too real.
Chu Shiyi, ever the good Samaritan, said, "I've heard the Emperor and Empress are getting married soon. If you want to know, take them to see for yourselves."
“Okay, I’ll go and see for myself.” An Yan couldn’t quite describe how she felt.
The woman he once looked down on, the woman he even tried to kill, is now going to become the First Lady, and he can no longer reach her level.
An Shiqing, who had been pretending to be invisible, was stunned after hearing this. "Father, are you crazy? This place is so far from the capital. How long would it take our whole family to get there on foot?"
But at the same time, he also had some expectations. He and Lin Anyuan were half-brothers, so what if they thought this marriage was a good match...?
"Let your mother see for herself."
An Yan gave a wry smile; wasn't it also his own desire to go and see?
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible, this will never be possible..."
Su Yan'er was so angry that she rolled her eyes and fell down.
