Chapter 782 The son born by a mouse can dig holes
Seeing through Song Yanxi's thoughts at a glance, Shen Qingyun smiled and said, "Your uncle was a handsome man in his youth. I don't know how many girls came to the shop every day because of his reputation.
But he was so stubborn that he believed the story I told him when he was a child about falling in love at first sight."
Yan Changkun covered half of his face with his sleeve and said embarrassedly, "It's been so many years since the beginning of time, why is my sister-in-law bringing up this matter again?"
Shen Qingyun raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: “Why, are you still embarrassed in front of your own children?”
Without waiting for Yan Changkun to speak, Song Yanxi hurriedly asked, "Aunt, what happened next?"
"After that?" Shen Qingyun smiled even more, and said angrily: "Silly girl, of course your aunt-in-law took a fancy to your uncle, and thought that he was not only handsome but also courageous.
He is also a fool with good fortune. He fell in love with your aunt-in-law after just a quick glance in the temple.
Fortunately, the two families are well matched. If it were any other family, this marriage would probably not have been possible.
In the blink of an eye, your cousin Qinghe will be old enough to discuss marriage."
When she mentioned this, she quickly took Song Yanxi's hand and said, "Xi'er, your aunt has something happy to tell you."
Yan Changkun coughed lightly and said, "Sister-in-law, don't tell Xier about this matter for now since it's not even a clue."
Shen Qingyun glared at him when he heard this, "The girl has already nodded, how can it not count?"
She smiled and said, "When Qinghe comes back next month, I'll meet that girl. If they like each other, we can arrange the marriage."
Yan Changkun puffed out his belly and said proudly, "The sons of my Yan family are all excellent. There is absolutely no reason for the Sun family's girls to look down on them."
"Who would praise their son like that?"
"Didn't my sister-in-law praise me in front of my father-in-law and mother-in-law?"
Speaking of this, Yan Changkun smiled gratefully and said, "If it weren't for my sister-in-law, I wouldn't be able to marry a wife as good as Peilan. Please accept my greetings again."
Shen Qingyun waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about these old almanacs. You're not afraid of making people's teeth sour."
Song Yanxi asked at the right moment: "My uncle just mentioned the Miss Sun family. Which Sun family?"
After these words were spoken, the expressions of the uncle and sister-in-law became slightly subtle.
Yan Changkun coughed lightly and said, "Xi'er, this matter is really a long story."
"Okay, you're having such a hard time stuttering, it's not something shameful."
Shen Qingyun said: "Xier, I was talking about the daughter of the Marquis of Changle Mansion, Miss Sun Qianqian."
Song Yanxi nodded, "I met this Miss Sun once before at the Princess's Mansion.
It’s just that I was in a hurry that day and didn’t have time to talk to her.”
There is no impenetrable wall in the world, especially in the capital where various forces are intertwined.
The scandal that took place at Princess Huayang's residence that day had long been no secret among the prominent families in the capital.
It was just because of the eldest princess's face and not wanting to be the first to offend the Changle Marquis' Mansion that they tacitly kept the matter from being made public.
But no one else can interfere with how they discuss it privately or make fun of it.
After talking about this many times, it was inevitable that someone couldn't control their mouths and the news reached Shen Qingyun's ears.
She was not a fool and quickly guessed the key points. She was so angry that she didn't even eat that night. She sat in the room and cursed Yan Changfeng's spirit tablet until midnight.
If she hadn't been thinking about her niece who was already engaged to Mo Jinchuan, she would have gone to the Princess's Mansion to ask for an explanation.
Shen Qingyun said: "Xier, this is all my idea. If you are angry, just be angry at me."
Finally, she couldn't help but emphasize, "That's a good child. If you have a chance to talk to her more, you will definitely like her."
Song Yanxi smiled more, "It's rare to see you like someone so much. I really want to meet this Miss Sun."
Hearing her say this, Shen Qingyun also laughed, "Okay, okay, when the weather is good one day, I will send a message to invite them mother and daughter to go out to listen to the opera."
When she mentioned Sun Qianqian, the smile on her face disappeared, and she became more and more satisfied as she spoke.
Yan Changkun listened from the side and couldn't help asking, "Sister-in-law, can the Marquis of Changle really give birth to such a beautiful girl?"
Meeting Shen Qingyun’s displeased gaze, he said, “As the saying goes, a dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse gives birth to a son who can dig holes.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped on the back of the head.
Shen Qingyun glared at him and said, "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll ask Dad to punish you when I get back."
As she spoke, she glanced at Song Yanxi out of the corner of her eye.
Without her reminder, Yan Changkun knew that she was thinking of Song Huai'en, the unfaithful man.
Without hesitation, he blurted out, "Xi'er Bai'er has the blood of my Yan family in her body. What does that have to do with him, the Song family?"
Thinking of what he had just said when praising his son, Shen Qingyun understood.
In his eyes, the saying "like father, like son" also applies to different people.
A few people were chatting and laughing when the maid came over to invite someone.
When he heard that Yan Qing was cooking today, Yan Changkun smiled and said, "I've been thinking about your cooking skills for a long time, and today I'm taking advantage of Xier."
Thinking of his determination to lose weight, he touched his stomach and comforted himself: "It shouldn't be a big deal if I only eat this one meal today."
Shen Qingyun looked at Song Yanxi, shook his head and said, “I’m afraid it will be difficult to get rid of this fat on your uncle’s body.”
Yan Changkun: "..."
Song Yanxi suppressed her laughter and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, Auntie. I'll give Uncle a couple of injections before I go back, and then give him some medicinal food to eat."
She said a lot, but when it reached Shen Qingyun's ears, only one sentence remained.
"It's a rare trip back home, why don't you stay at home tonight?"
Hearing the displeasure in her tone, Song Yanxi explained, "Empress Li has been having nightmares lately and hasn't been able to sleep well. I'm worried that the palace will summon her at any time."
Besides, there is another more important point she didn't mention.
Even though she is now responsible for regulating His Majesty's health, facing such a large funnel, there is really only so much she can do.
But he is the king of a country. Asking him to put aside state affairs and focus on self-cultivation is nothing but a pipe dream.
If it was just fatigue, the prescription she had prepared could ensure she stayed awake during the day.
The fear is that he might get angry and faint again like last time.
When that time comes, even if gods were alive, it would be difficult for him to prolong his life.
Although she knew that everything in the palace was important, Shen Qingyun couldn't help but feel distressed when she saw Song Yanxi's profile, which was much thinner than she remembered.
She sighed softly, "I really don't know whether it was right or wrong to agree to let you follow Divine Doctor Huangfu into the Divine Doctor Valley."
Yan Changkun's voice suddenly came, "Of course it's right."
He straightened his back and said with great pride: "Since our Xier started studying medicine, I don't know how many people he has saved and how much merit he has accumulated over the years.
My sister-in-law hasn't been out lately, so she hasn't heard how the people outside are praising our Xier."
Shen Qingyun: "It's just some talk about immortals in the world, beautiful women and medical immortals, etc. I've heard so much that my ears are callused."
Looking at Yan Zhangkun's serious expression, she said, "San'er, your sister-in-law is just too lazy to go out, not deaf and blind."
As she spoke, she pulled Song Yanxi over and said with a smile, "Come on, I'll take you to see the little girl from Qinglin's family. She can't speak yet, so it's time for some fun."
