Yan Shitu waved his hand: "Don't misunderstand me, I'm not here to cause you any trouble. I just heard about your sister's affairs and I'm a little curious. Can you please let me talk for a moment?"
Tang Shirong hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay."
He looked around and saw that Huo Qiyang had not come out yet, so he asked Yuwen Che to wait for Huo Qiyang outside, and he and Yan Shitu went to a nearby teahouse.
After taking a seat, Yan Shitu said, "I want to ask, how did Yan Tingyue and your sister become enemies?"
Tang Shirong asked, "Why didn't Master Yan ask your sister about this matter, but asked me instead?"
Yan Shitu said: "I can't get the answer from her, and the rumors are all messed up. I want to hear the truth."
"Okay," Tang Shirong listened to Tang Shiyue's detailed account, then put down the tea bowl and recounted what happened from beginning to end.
Yan Shitu looked gloomy, and after a while he said, "I'm so sorry."
He looked at him and said, "Ah Rong, I want to visit your sister. Is that possible?"
Tang Shirong said tactfully, "My sister has a rather serious temper. I'm afraid this matter is not so easy to mediate. When the Saint was on his northern tour, your father also explained this matter to my sister, and it was... a very unpleasant situation."
...
...
Yan Shitu was silent for a moment, then said vaguely, "I, I don't want to mediate this matter, let her do whatever she wants. I just...A Rong and I are classmates, so is it not okay for me to visit you at home?"
Tang Shirong was somewhat speechless: "Young Master Yan, I don't know what you really want?"
Yan Shitu was silent for a while, then he said, "I don't want to do anything, I just want to meet Lady Fu of Qinzhou." He grabbed his arm and said, "I will visit your home, and I will take good care of you and treat you to a meal when I come back."
Tang Shirong was silent for a moment.
He glanced down and saw that the family's Yuwen car had already arrived, so he said, "Let's go."
Yan Shitu was overjoyed: "A Rong is really straightforward!"
He followed Tang Shirong downstairs, got on Yuwen's carriage, and soon arrived at the Lady's Mansion.
Tang Shirong handed the schoolbag to the servant and asked, "Where is Yueyue?"
The man said, "In the east study."
There are three study rooms in the Lady's Mansion. The large study room in the front is mainly used by the three of them to read, write and meet guests. The two study rooms in the back, one is used by Tang Shiyue herself, called the East Study Room, and the other is next to their bedroom, called the West Study Room.
In fact, they are not far apart, it’s just convenient to call them like this.
Tang Shirong took Yan Shitu over there.
Yan Shitu looked around along the way, feeling secretly curious.
The Lady's Mansion was totally different from other people's mansions. It was grand and spacious everywhere. After entering the second gate, there should have been a garden, but it was bare without a single flower. There were two lynxes rolling and playing on the grass, and there were some strange things next to them, even a plum blossom stake.
Yan Shitu pointed and asked, "What is that?"
"It's called a 'fitness machine'." Tang Shirong said, "My sister told us to go out and exercise every hour when we study to strengthen our bodies."
Yan Shitu went up and shook his legs a few times, marveling at the sight.
In fact, it is the fitness equipment that can be found everywhere in the community in the future! The favorite of the grandpa and aunt.
At this moment, Tang Shiyue was playing in the yard.
Since the birth of GunGun, the lynx has obviously fallen out of favor. After all, GunGun looks so cute!
In order to avoid the lynx from getting jealous, she had to send the Sword Shadow and Sword Dance couple away before masturbating every time, doing it in secret as if she was meeting a mistress.
I was masturbating to my heart's content when I heard someone calling from behind: "Yueyue?"
Tang Shiyue turned around and saw two people standing behind him, both wearing the Imperial College's robes.
Tang Shiyue quickly straightened his tone and turned around to bow: "Brother, you have a guest? Who is this?"
Tang Shirong said, "This is Yan Shitu from Prince An's Mansion, a classmate of our country's Imperial Academy."
Prince An's Mansion? Tang Shiyue raised her eyebrows.
The child looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, and was looking at her in shock. His eyes were wide open, black and bright, and there was a bit of youthfulness in his gaze. He was more pleasing to the eye than that Yan Liangchou.
Tang Shiyue nodded, her expression normal: "It turned out to be Yan Xiaolang, I asked someone to prepare some snacks for you, brother."
Tang Shirong hummed.
So Yan Shitu didn't even have time to say anything before he was dragged away by Tang Shirong again.
He took him directly to the front door and bowed: "I have something to do at home, so I won't keep Young Master Yan for dinner. Please come in!"
Yan Shitu also came back to his senses, realizing that he had lost his composure just now and was misunderstood by Tang Shirong, so he quickly said, "A Rong, I..."
Tang Shirong closed the door directly.
Yan Shitu let out a long sigh, didn't knock on the door again, turned around, and walked out in a daze.
In his mind, he kept replaying the moment when Tang Shiyue turned around.
When she had her back to me, she looked really small, and when she turned around, she was indeed a little girl, but that face, those eyes... that feeling of familiarity and kindness, was really, really clear.
He suddenly broke into a trot.
Although the Lady's Mansion and Prince An's Mansion were not far away, he was already out of breath when he returned home.
It was past dinner time, so he went straight to the study room in front. As expected, Yan Chengyuan was in the study room. As soon as he entered, he asked directly, "Dad, you have seen the Lady of Enfu County, right?"
Yan Chengyuan's hand on the book froze and he did not answer.
Yan Shitu couldn't suppress his anxiety: "How could she look like that? How is it possible?!"
Yan Chengyuan turned a page of the book: "How did you meet her?"
"I went to her house to see her," Yan Shitu said, "I was in the Imperial College with her brother, so I insisted on going."
"She..." Yan Chengyuan hesitated for a moment: "What did she say to you?"
"No," Yan Shitu looked at him and said slowly, "She didn't say anything else. It was just like entertaining her brothers and classmates."
Yan Chengyuan nodded and stopped talking.
Yan Shitu said anxiously: "Dad!"
He still didn't answer, and Yan Shitu's eyes were red: "Could she be the real Yueyue? She is from Qinzhou, from Dongfeng County!"
Yan Chengyuan still didn't answer.
Yan Shitu's eyes lit up: "Dad! Have you found out something? Is Yueyue really not dead?"
He was a little surprised: "I knew it! I knew Yueyue would not die! I am not imagining things, am I? Dad!"
"I don't know," Yan Chengyuan interrupted him, "I really don't know. I think so, but... you are just daydreaming."
Yan Shitu was silent for a long time: "Dad, can I go and check this out? I won't go alone, I'll ask my second brother to come along, and I promise to be cautious, okay?"
Yan Chengyuan nodded after a moment.
Yan Shitu turned and left.
The second son of the second wife, Yan Shirui, is twenty-three years old this year. He works as a vice minister in the Ministry of Personnel. He is one of the few children of aristocratic families who entered the officialdom through the imperial examination. Considering his age, he can be said to be a promising young man.
The reason why Prince An's Mansion is so prestigious is because of Yan Chengyuan, and Yan Chengyuan's eldest son and second son are both promising.
Hearing that Yan Shirui hadn't come back yet, Yan Shitu sat down in the corridor. Qiao was so shocked that she didn't know what to do. She came over to ask, but Yan Shitu didn't say much, just said: "Second sister-in-law, I haven't eaten yet, ask the kitchen to bring me something to eat."
Qiao said, "Uncle San, come in and eat. When your second brother arrives, I will ask him to come see you."
"No," Yan Shitu said without moving, "I'll just wait for him here."
Mrs. Qiao had no choice but to ask someone to bring him food. When Yan Shirui came in, he saw him sitting there eating Hu cake like a stray dog.
Even Yan Shirui, who was so calm, couldn't help but pause: "What are you doing?"
"Second brother." Yan Shitu threw away the Hu Bing, not caring about the oil on his hands, and grabbed him and walked away: "Second brother, I have something urgent to talk to you about."
