Chapter 469: This woman is sick again?
Tao Yiran had never set foot in Qiushi Courtyard, which was supposed to be the courtyard where she lived.
In the past, Aunt Liu always talked about how spacious and grand Qiushi Courtyard was, but she didn't take it seriously, thinking that Chunhua Courtyard was already very good, even better than the courtyard where her grandmother lived.
I came in today for some unknown reason, and I could tell the difference with just a quick glance.
"I haven't been to Qiushiyuan yet. Is your sister-in-law here?"
Chunyang Fuli said, "Replying to the eldest young lady, the second young lady and the second master are in the study. Please allow me to report to them."
"No, just take me there."
Chunyang's mouth twitched slightly, but he didn't dare to refuse. After all, she was the wife of the prince of a marquisate and the future mistress of the family.
Fortunately, the maid in the yard was smart and told Xin An first. At this time, the couple was busy writing letters. Tang Mo prepared paper and pen, and Xin An was responsible for supplementing. They were a little surprised to learn that Tao Yiran had come. Xin An chuckled and said, "Come on, you write, I'll go and take a look."
Tang Mo held her back and said, "You haven't finished your sentence yet, what's next?"
"Oh, let him bring his sister-in-law along. She can help with socializing. It's not good for a newlywed couple to be separated for a long time."
Tang Mo picked up the pen and wrote quickly. Just as he finished writing this sentence, Tao Yiran came and her first glance fell on Tang Mo. Although they lived in the same mansion and there was only a wall between the two courtyards, she hadn't seen Tang Mo for a long time. When she saw him again, he was different from what she remembered.
He has become much calmer and more handsome.
"Sister-in-law, is there something you want to ask?"
Xin An took two steps forward and said, "I was busy writing something and didn't come to greet you, sister-in-law. Please don't blame me."
"I was abrupt."
Tao Yiran smiled faintly, "I passed by Qiushi Garden when I came back from the garden. I had never been here before, so I walked in out of curiosity. Did I disturb my sister-in-law?"
"It's nothing serious."
Xin An was curious, "Could it be that my sister-in-law has been in the garden since she separated from me in the afternoon?"
Everyone has three urgent needs. Why did she hold it in for so long? "I don't go out often. I saw the beautiful scenery in the garden, so I sat there for a while. My second brother and his wife and my second brother."
His eyes fell on Tang Mo again, "What a great relationship."
Could it be that this woman Tang Mo is sick again? Xin An smiled and said, "It's not as good as the relationship between my elder brother and his wife, which is stronger than gold."
"I heard that my eldest brother suffered several hardships last year and it was my eldest sister-in-law who took care of him personally. I admire her very much and want to learn from her."
This successfully reminded Tao Yiran of Tang Rong's filthy appearance, and a feeling of discomfort attacked her stomach. "Second brother is blessed with great fortune, and he will definitely not suffer the same fate as your eldest brother."
"Your eldest brother is not at home. I am grateful to my sister-in-law for taking care of me. I have no way to repay you. If you need my help in the future, please let me know."
Then he looked at Tang Mo again, "Now my father has stayed in the capital. If you need any help, you can go find him directly. I will explain it to father in person. We are all family and should support each other."
Tang Mo got goosebumps all over his body and couldn't utter a word. Xin An glared at him and said, "Sister-in-law is talking to you. Why don't you reply? How rude."
"Come on, sister-in-law, let's ignore him and talk outside."
Xin An helped Tao Yiran out of the door and successfully rescued Tang Mo. Tang Mo silently rolled his eyes. The letter they wrote was ruined. How annoying! Without Tang Mo in front of him, Tao Yiran was in no mood to deal with Xin An. After a few polite words, he walked out of Qiushiyuan. As soon as he left, Chunyang went to close the door and looked back at Xin An, "Young Madam."
She shouldn't have let the young master's wife in.
"What a big deal."
Xin An turned around and went back to the study. Tang Mo had already written the letter. Xin An looked it over and found no problem. He put it into the envelope after the ink dried. "I asked the kitchen to cook your favorite dish tonight. There is a dried abalone with seafood. I started preparing it five days ago. It's a rare dish the size of a palm. You've worked hard these days. You should make up for it."
Tang Mo came forward and said, "You know I was offended just now, so you want to make up for it?"
"I told you, we had already prepared it five days ago."
Xin An took his arm and said, "Don't worry, the neighbor will soon become active that day, and will not think about you. Everything is ready, and the Shuihua Banquet can only be started."
“Really.”
Tang Mo didn't know how to comment on it. He couldn't stand the slightest hint of masculinity.
During dinner, Tang Mo looked at the large dried abalone on the plate with great curiosity, saying that it was a rare size, and was really as big as a palm. It was soft, sticky, fresh, sweet and rich in flavor.
Xin An frowned, she was unwilling to eat because of the strong fishy smell. Tang Mo brought it to her mouth but she still refused to open her mouth. "It doesn't smell fishy to me. It's very fragrant and has the taste of ham."
"I can't smell it. Maybe this thing is not suitable for me. It's a bargain for you. Eat it all."

Xin An refused fiercely, and Tang Mo had no choice but to take another big bite, "How can it be fishy? It's so delicious."
"If you like it, I'll make it for you later. There's more."
"Then I'm in luck."
Tang Mo ate heartily, but Xin An felt his stomach churning slightly. He almost vomited after taking a sip of the pigeon soup, "This is fishy too."
In the end, she only ate some vegetables. Considering that she occasionally had a poor appetite and couldn't eat, Tang Mo didn't take it too seriously. He asked her to eat more vegetables and said he would take her out for dinner the next night. "We've been busy these days. We haven't gone out for dinner for a while. And you're not free to go out for fun."
"Tomorrow night."
Xin An smiled and nodded, saying that she would go to the Liao family early tomorrow morning. The Xu family was a wealthy family in Xuzhou, so if she wanted to raise funds there, she would naturally have to use the Xu family's connections. She put down her bowl and chopsticks and lamented, "As a sister, I really have a lot of worries."
"I have to go to Prince Jin's mansion to thank him in person."
Who said that being a young lady only requires buying jewelry and listening to operas every day? Xin An did not sleep well that night. In her dream, she was chased by a snake, and then the cat played with the snake again. When she woke up, she felt groggy and had no energy for a long time.
Chunyang said that Prince Jin's wife had sent someone to invite her to her house for a chat early in the morning, so the trip to the Liao family had to be rescheduled.
"The second young master's wife of the Marquis's Mansion is really out of her mind. The Xin family has taken advantage of Huaijiang and now they want to get a bigger share. Don't they know that Xuzhou is where you and I are from? Then the first move should be made by you and me."
As the sun rose, Lin Qingqing, the second young lady of Prince Jin's Mansion, who had been angry all night, arrived at the Liao family early in the morning and sat in front of Madam Liao to complain.
"You don't know how cunning that person is. She managed to make a way for herself in Prince Jin's mansion. My mother-in-law and sister-in-law both have a good impression of her."
She had disliked Xin An since the first banquet held at Prince Jin's Mansion when he returned to the capital last year. Originally, she and Sister Xu were the best of friends, but because she went into exile and was not in the capital, Xin An took advantage of the opportunity.
Mrs. Liao smiled and asked her, "Before anyone brought this up, have you ever thought about asking the Lin family to contribute to the fundraising?"
