Chapter 367, Meet
The fact that Yan Yishuang was sent back home early did not cause any trouble in the Yan family. Daohua did not mention it, and Yan Yishuang did not dare to make a fuss. The matter just passed quietly.
Second room.
Sun looked at her three children with a sigh. "It's a good thing for Wenbin and Yishuang that Aunt Lin is under house arrest. Without her support, they know how to handle the situation."
Yan Zhiyuan said calmly, "It would be a good thing for them to recognize their place earlier. Wenbin is well-educated, and as long as he doesn't dwell on it, Wenxiu won't stop him from making a breakthrough."
Sun nodded and looked at her youngest daughter: "Don't go against your elder sister in the future, especially when you are not in the right. Like Yishuang this time, being sent back in front of so many people, how embarrassing!"
Yan Yile pouted and said, "How dare I go? I wrote those hundred long articles last time and I still don't want to pick up the pen."
Sun smiled and said, "This is how I should temper your temper."
Yan Yile was unhappy: "Why doesn't anyone try to temper Big Sister's temper? She's already thirteen, isn't she still running around all day?"
Sun sighed, "Your elder sister is so lucky. She has the old lady to protect her above her and your aunt to pamper her below. Now even your uncle is becoming more and more fond of that girl. She can do whatever she wants."
Yan Yile shook Sun's arm and said, "Mom, my elder sister's room is so bright. I also want to install glazed tiles and floating windows."
Sun pulled her hand away and said unhappily, "I, your mother, don't have the money to buy such expensive things." As she said that, her face turned serious and she looked at Yan Zhiyuan.
"My eldest sister-in-law is becoming more and more stingy. She relied on the colored glaze given by the young prince to install the main courtyard, but she forgot about us."
Yan Zhiyuan glanced at Sun and said, "What are you talking about? No one is stopping you from pretending to be the eldest sister-in-law."
Sun glared: "What can I use to pretend?"
Yan Zhiyuan said impatiently, "Just be content. We haven't split up yet, and everything we eat and use is from our eldest brother and his wife. It's good enough that she doesn't look down on us. Why don't you learn from your third brother's wife? Have you ever seen her say such nonsense?"
Sun curled her lips and said, "That tenant girl Wu married into the Yan family empty-handed. How could she dare to ask for anything? But I'm different. I am..."
Before he could finish his words, Yan Zhiyuan stood up, shook his sleeves, and walked out of the room.
Seeing this, Sun was furious: "Look at your good father, what kind of attitude is this!"
Yan Wenjie was somewhat helpless: "Mom, you know that Dad doesn't like to hear you say this, so why do you keep saying it in front of him?"
Yan Yihan, who was sitting next to her, frowned and looked in the direction her father went out, with some sadness between her brows.
Dad has been going out earlier and coming back later lately. Recently, there were several times when he didn't come home to spend the night.
What is Dad busy with?
On the second day after the rice flower festival, Mrs. Dong took Dong Yuanyao and Su Shiyu back to the provincial government.
In front of the pier.
Daohua pulled Dong Yuanyao and Su Shiyu aside and said, "I was thinking of celebrating Mid-Autumn Festival with you guys, but you guys are leaving again."
Dong Yuanyao smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll definitely come over once the little prince's glass shop opens. Didn't the little prince say yesterday that the shop would open around the Mid-Autumn Festival? If the date is close, we can still celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival together."
Su Shiyu also smiled and said, "The colored glaze has been laid out, and I'm going to come over and pick out a few sets. Apart from anything else, the colored glaze tiles and the floating windows must be installed so that I don't feel the lack of light when I read in the study."
Daohua: "Well, I'll be waiting for you. I've prepared mooncakes and osmanthus wine for you in advance."
Dong Yuanyao was in high spirits and said with a smile, "Okay, then we can enjoy the moon and drink until we are drunk."
Su Shiyu also smiled, with a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
Having spent the past two days with Yi Yi and Yuan Yao, two people who love to play, make noises, talk and laugh, she feels that her temperament has become more lively.
My grandfather often said that emotions can be contagious, and this is really true.
Looking at their bright and cheerful smiles, she couldn't help but want to laugh herself, and her mood became much brighter.
Beside them, Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Li finished their conversation and laughed when they heard the three girls' agreement.
"Don't go home until you're drunk. This girl's tone is getting louder and louder."
"They can only do what they want for the next two or three years. Let them be."
"Then we'll go back now, you guys should go back too."
A few days after seeing off Dong Yuanyao and Su Shiyu, Daohua and Old Lady Yan went to Taohua Village. One of them went to check on the autumn harvest, and the other went to deliver Mid-Autumn Festival gifts to Grandma Gu and Gu Jian.
"Mother-in-law, Master, these are the mooncakes I made especially for you two. Please try them."
Daohua placed the mooncakes one by one on the table.
Granny Gu looked at the various shapes and colors of mooncakes, her face full of smiles: "Why are there so many kinds?"
Old Lady Yan laughed and said, "This girl just likes to mess around and do some fancy tricks."
Granny Gu picked up a piece of pig-head mooncake and smiled: "I see, this is a sign of ingenuity and dexterity. If you ask others to make it, they won't be able to do it as well."
Old Madam Yan smiled and didn't refute. She also picked up a piece of plum blossom mooncake and said, "It tastes good. Come and try it."
Just as Gu Jian was about to reach out, Daohua handed him a plate: "Master, you like salty food, here are egg yolk mooncakes and ham mooncakes."
Gu Jian glanced at his little apprentice, said nothing, picked up the mooncake and started eating.
After he took a few bites, Daohua quickly asked, "How is it? Is it to your taste?"
Gu Jian nodded calmly: "It's okay."
Seeing this, Granny Gu and Old Lady Yan both smiled and shook their heads.
Daohua pouted and said, "Master, what's wrong with you praising me a few times?"
Gu Jian said with a stern face, "Just a few plates of mooncakes, is that worthy of praise? Have you memorized the recipes that your master taught you?"
Daohua shrank her neck. She had been busy since she returned home and had no time to memorize any prescriptions. Worried about being tested, she quickly changed the subject: "I'll go see if there is enough food in the kitchen." After saying that, she ran away.
After seeing them leave, Granny Gu glanced at her brother with dissatisfaction: "You are too strict."
Gu Jian remained calm, with a smile in his eyes. He picked up another mooncake, took a bite, and then said, "If you weren't so strict, this girl would be so proud of herself."
Old Madam Yan smiled and nodded: "Master Gu is right. We should be stricter with that girl. Her mother has been worried about her unruly personality for a long time."
Granny Gu smiled and said, "I think Daohua has a good temper. There's no need to restrict her too harshly."
Old Lady Yan: "She didn't have any control over her. Her mother just said some harsh words but didn't have the heart to discipline her. She just let the girl do what she wanted. Fortunately, she knows her limits."
In the kitchen, Daohua was checking the ingredients for lunch, and Wang Maner was helping her. As she worked, she smiled and said, "Miss, do you think the young prince will come over this afternoon?"
Daohua glanced at her sideways and said, "Girl, you are becoming more and more cunning now."
Wang Maner pursed her lips and smiled: "Miss, how about we make a bet? I bet that the young prince will definitely come."
Daohua looked through the window at the falcon circling in the yard and said unhappily, "Who wants to bet with you?"
Wang Man'er immediately smiled and said, "That's because you know that the young prince will definitely come."
After lunch, Daohua took a nap. When she woke up, she heard Wang Maner's cheerful greetings coming from the yard.
