Chapter 37 Letters
When Yuan Ziyu brought Qingying to Shousong Hall, the table for the family banquet had already been set up. Madam Yuan sat at the head of the table, and Liu, Ning, Yuan Zitong and Yuan Qilei were also there.
"I'm late, please don't blame me, grandma!" Yuan Ziyu bowed to everyone and said to Madam Yuan with a smile.
The elder lady smiled and said, "It's not too late, second girl, sit down quickly!"
"Yes!" Yuan Ziyu responded and sat next to Liu!
Liu smiled and glanced at the jade hairpin in Yuan Ziyou's hair, then asked, "Has Fei'er gone back?"
"Yeah!" Yuan Ziyu nodded slightly!
The elder lady then instructed Shaoyao, "Now that everyone is here, serve the food!"
"Yes!" Shaoyao responded and stepped back.
The elder lady then said, "Today is the first day of the new year. In previous years, it was just me and the second son's family celebrating the New Year. This year, the eldest son's family will all be back, so from now on, our family will be complete. Since we are all family, we should live in harmony. If there is anything, talk about it openly. Don't keep it in your heart and let it cause resentment!"
"Yes!" everyone responded quickly.
Madam Yuan nodded in satisfaction and said to Ning, "Second daughter-in-law, I know I wronged you last night. I also scolded Lei'er, but Lei'er wants to take a concubine because he really has no children. You should be more understanding. You can take a concubine, but I'm here and I will never allow you to take a concubine. Even if you give birth to a son in the future, I will keep him in your house. In our Yuan family, there is no such thing as a concubine raising a master."
"Yes, mother, I understand. I lost my temper last night. I hope you won't blame me!" Ning said hurriedly.
Mrs. Ning's words satisfied the elder lady: "That's right, don't worry, if Lei'er does something naughty again in the future, I will help you beat him!"
"Thank you, mother!" Ning responded with a smile!
Madam Yuan Lao then said to Yuan Qilei, "Did you hear what I just said?"
"I heard it!" Yuan Qilei responded quickly.
The elder lady said, "A concubine is just a toy. Is it worth your panic? And you've also offended your wife. Remember, Ning is your wife. No one can get past her. If what happened last night happens again, I won't forgive you."
"Don't worry, mother. I was confused last night and I won't dare to do it again!" Yuan Qilei said hurriedly.
Yuan Zitong sat next to Ning, lowering her head slightly. The farce last night really made her feel unfair. She felt depressed when she thought that she would have a younger brother or sister in the future who would share her parents' love. In addition, the obviously new hairpin in Yuan Ziyu's temples made her even more annoyed!
Ignoring the subtle glances Yuan Zitong cast at him from time to time, Yuan Ziyu glanced at Yuan Qilei and Ning without leaving a trace.
Yuan Ziyu didn't know whether Yuan Qilei was good at coaxing people or Ning was able to endure.
In short, it seems that there is no longer any estrangement between Yuan Qilei and Ning. Ning even has a smile on her face. Because she bumped her forehead last night, she covered it with bangs today, so you can't see anything!
It was a family dinner, and although it started a little late, it seemed to be a joyful occasion. Yuan Qilei would occasionally tell some interesting stories on his way to do his work to make the old lady happy. The only thing that made Yuan Ziyu uncomfortable was the scent of locust leaves wafting all over the table, which made her extremely uncomfortable.
However, she simply couldn't tell anyone about Qingyi Powder now. Not to mention that in Liu's eyes, she had only just started learning pharmacology. Even Doctor Qian, who often came to the mansion to see patients, had not noticed the existence of Qingyi Powder.
What's more, she hasn't been able to find out the mastermind behind this.
Qingyi Powder is truly extremely vicious.
Yuan Ziyu had not figured out how to dissolve the Qingyi Powder yet, so he could only send some snacks mixed with spring water to Madam Yuan and Liu from time to time. The spring water in the Qiongjiang Pavilion was truly magical and should be able to suppress the toxicity of the Qingyi Powder.
The family dinner is over and everyone dispersed without saying anything!
Yuan Zitong suppressed her anger and returned to Tongxiangyuan. She smashed a few cups and slapped a few little maids before she felt a little relieved.
Lian Qiao didn't dare to step forward to persuade her. She waited until Yuan Zitong calmed down before carefully stepping forward: "Miss, why are you so angry? What if you hurt yourself?"
Yuan Zitong angrily said, "Are you blind? Didn't you see the bright jade hairpin on that bitch's head?"
"Maybe..." Lian Qiao blinked, not knowing how to respond for a moment!
"Don't make up any excuses!" Yuan Zitong snorted coldly, "When that bitch went to my grandmother's house today, she didn't have the jade hairpin on her head. It must have been given by Brother Huo!"
"Miss, even if it was a gift from the prince, it is in accordance with etiquette now that the second lady and the prince are engaged!" Lian Qiao hurriedly advised. She remembered Ning's threat and did not dare to add fuel to the fire for Yuan Zitong at this time. If she did something else, she was afraid that her life would be in danger.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zitong glared at Lian Qiao fiercely: "Whose maid are you anyway? If you're tired of staying here, how about I send you to Wuyou Pavilion?"
"My eldest daughter!" Lian Qiao said hurriedly, "This servant is doing this for your own good. Think about it, no matter what happens now, you will just be sulking and it will only hurt yourself. It would be better to find an opportunity to completely block the second daughter's chance of marrying into the Marquis' Mansion."
"Do you have any ideas?" Yuan Zitong asked Lian Qiao!
"Not yet!" Lian Qiao quickly lowered her head and replied!
Yuan Zitong snorted coldly: "Waste!"
After saying that, he stood up and walked out: "Follow me to Zihuayuan!"
"yes!"
When Yuan Zitong arrived at Zihuayuan, Ning was writing a letter at her desk!
"Mom!" Yuan Zitong called out softly, "Are you still dizzy? Do you want Doctor Qian to come back and take a look?"
Yuan Zitong's concern made Ning smile: "Mom is fine, my Tong'er is the best, she knows how to care for me!"
"You are my mother. If I don't feel sorry for you, who else can I feel sorry for!" Yuan Zitong smiled sweetly.
"Alas, you are all I have left!" Ning sighed and hugged Yuan Zitong!
Yuan Zitong knew that her mother was hurt by her father, but she couldn't say much. She looked at the letter on the table and said, "Mom, who are you writing to?"
"It's for your uncle! Mother plans to have their whole family come to Beijing." Ning said, "Your cousins will also be here by then. You must not bully them like you did when we were little, understand?"
"I know, mother. I'm already this old, so I'm naturally not the same as when I was little!" Yuan Zitong smiled and asked, "If my uncle and his family come to Beijing, do you have any arrangements?"
"Of course!" Ning said with a smile, stroking Yuan Zitong's hair. "Tong'er, you'll be fifteen this year. I'll naturally make plans for you. But you have to promise me that you won't be as impulsive as before, okay?"
"Yes, Tong'er understands!" Yuan Zitong rolled into Ning's arms: "Mother, you must help Tong'er!"
Ning hugged Yuan Zitong without saying a word, squinting her eyes and looking out the window. She wanted to get back everything that was owed to her!
