Chapter 928: Just like your mother, she is a stubborn person
When she saw the face in her memory again, Song Yanxi was dazed for a moment.
She quickly put down the palm-leaf fan and pinched herself hard. As the pain hit her, she finally realized that everything in front of her was not a dream.
Yan Yichuan had a kind smile in his eyes, "Girl, why are you still standing there? Don't you even recognize your own grandfather?"
Hearing the kind voice that had called her "girl" countless times, Song Yanxi's eyes instantly turned red, and the grievances that had been suppressed for a long time also surged into her heart.
Seeing that she looked like she was about to cry, Yan Yichuan could no longer stand. He quickly walked up to her on his crutches, touched her head and said, "You are already a grown-up girl, so you shouldn't cry. People will laugh at you if they see you."
"Grandfather!" Song Yanxi couldn't help but throw herself into his arms, saying aggrievedly, "You're finally back."
Yan Yichuan patted her shoulder lightly and said in a deep voice, "Girl, don't be afraid. With your grandfather here, no one can bully you."
Song Yanxi hurriedly shook her head, her voice choked with sobs as she said, "Grandfather, no one bullies Xier."
She just couldn't forgive herself for her past stupidity.
When she thought about how her grandfather, who was such a good man in the world, ended up dying so tragically because of her letting a wolf into the house, she wanted to stab herself.
If she had not insisted on marrying Lin Tingfeng, he would not have been able to climb so fast with the help of the Yan family, and he would not have had the opportunity to be appreciated by the people behind the scenes.
In the end, more than a hundred people in the Yan family were killed by him and his men.
Even Keqing, who was still an infant, was not spared by that beast.
That night, the Yan Mansion, which used to be filled with laughter and joy, was now a river of blood.
Song Yanxi leaned against Yan Yichuan's chest, tears unconsciously blurring her eyes. She whispered, "Grandpa, I'm sorry. It's all Xier's fault."
Upon hearing this, a hint of coldness appeared in Yan Yichuan's slightly cloudy eyes.
He asked in a deep voice: "Did that kid from the Mo family bully you?"
Song Yanxi withdrew from his embrace, shook her head and said, "Grandfather, the prince treats Xier very well. Xier just misses you."
"Really?" Yan Yichuan frowned as he watched his granddaughter wiping her tears silently.
Obviously, Song Yanxi's words were not enough to convince this veteran who was both capable of leading troops and doing business.
He knew his child's personality very well.
Just like his stubborn daughter, she always reported good news but not bad news. She had clearly suffered a lot of grievances in the two years since she married into the general's mansion, but she refused to mention a single word when she returned home.
If it weren't for the uproar in the capital a few days ago, and people were talking about it in the streets and alleys, they didn't know how long they would have to keep it a secret from the old man.
Thinking of this, Yan Yichuan couldn't help but get angry, and asked with a cold face: "Xi'er, what did you promise your grandfather before you got married?"
Without waiting for Song Yanxi to speak, the old man said to himself, "Even if you get married, you must never compromise yourself for those bullshit Three Bonds and Five Constant Virtues. If things don't go your way, just pack up and come back. The door of our home will always be open to you.
Why don't you tell your grandfather how you did it?"
Song Yanxi's eyes turned redder when she heard this, "Grandfather..."
Seeing her aggrieved look, Yan Yichuan was angry and distressed at the same time. He sighed and said, "Forget it. You are as stubborn as your mother. I really don't know who you took it from."
Song Yanxi burst into laughter, took his arm and said coquettishly: "Master, he always said that Xier is worthy of being your granddaughter."
The implication is that this stubbornness is just what he inherited.
Yan Yichuan glared at him and said unhappily, "It would be great if you really followed my lead.
Over the years, I have never been bullied by my father-in-law and mother-in-law, nor have I let your grandmother be bullied by her parents-in-law.
You two mother are so good, you have never suffered a bitter bitterness in your own family, and yet you go to other people's families and suffer so much grievance."
He was really angry, and after thinking it over, he couldn't help but curse: "You useless thing, don't say you are my Yan Yichuan's granddaughter in the future."
Fearing that he might get angry and hurt himself, Song Yanxi quickly agreed with him and said, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to Grandpa."
Yan Yichuan was so angry that his beard trembled. He frowned and asked, "Xi'er, what did you just say?"
Realizing that something was wrong, Song Yanxi quickly changed her words and said, "My granddaughter is a member of the Yan family when she is born, and she will be a ghost of the Yan family when she dies. Even if you chase me away with a big stick, I won't leave."
Yan Yichuan was helped to sit down by her and said quietly, "You are not even willing to enter the house now. Even if I want to grab a big stick, I can't rush to the Princess's Mansion to beat you up."
Hearing this, Song Yanxi wanted to kneel down and kowtow to him.
Before she could move, she heard Yan Yichuan remind her, "Watch the medicine."
Song Yanxi hurriedly turned around, opened the lid, took a look at the medicine in the pot, and turned off the remaining fire.
Smelling the strong medicinal fragrance, she suddenly thought of something and looked at Yan Yichuan.
The latter seemed to have anticipated what she was going to ask, and said directly: "Girl, your master is going to meet an old friend.
He told me to tell you something: feel free to treat him bravely. If you can't help him, then even if he comes, it will be useless."
Song Yanxi nodded in understanding after hearing this, "Some things really need to be handled by Master himself."
Yan Yichuan was not very interested in Huangfu Huai's private affairs.
He just wanted to know what the condition of Emperor Xuande was like.
Song Yanxi wrapped herself in a thick handkerchief and poured the steaming dark brown medicine into the bowl. She then said, "I was just about to go deliver the medicine to His Majesty. Since Grandfather is worried, why don't you come with me to take a look?"
Yan Yichuan shook his head lightly, "I won't go over there."
He thought that His Majesty would not want to see his old friend at this time.
Guessing his thoughts, Song Yanxi asked, "How can you know that His Majesty doesn't want to see you if Grandfather doesn't ask in person?"
Yan Yichuan's expression became strange when he heard this.
Just when Song Yanxi thought he was going to refuse, he slowly stood up and said, "Let's go, let's go take a look."
As he spoke, Yan Yichuan curled the corners of his lips and smiled, "I have known His Majesty for so many years, and watched him rise from the leader of the rebel army to the position of the king of a country.
You know what, I've never seen him in such a mess."
He urged impatiently, "Girl, take me there quickly."
Song Yanxi: “…”
Why did she feel that her grandfather looked somewhat happy?
*
The person who was most happy to see Yan Yichuan was Dehai.
He held the old man's hand, his voice trembling with excitement, "It's good to be back. His Majesty has been waiting for you."
The two had been good friends who had known each other for many years, so there was no need for any polite greetings. They supported each other and walked into the inner room.
Little Hongzi hurried to catch up and said in a low voice, "Godfather, His Majesty hasn't been informed yet."
Hearing this, Dehai glared at him and said, "You blind thing, open your dog eyes and see clearly, this is General Yan."
Yan Yichuan shook his head and said, "What general or no general? I am just a commoner now, and I am not worthy of the title of general from you, father-in-law."
