Chapter 894 Chapter 894, It's Your Own Fault
Capital, Yan Mansion.
After Li Xingnian returned from Xiliang, he instructed the steward to prepare the goods to be sold in Ganzhou Wei in the future, and then came to Yan Mansion.
This day happened to be Yan Zhiqiang's birthday. Everyone in the Yan family was at home, and the married girls had also returned.
Looking at Li Xingnian, who had become several shades darker, everyone in the Yan family was stunned for a moment.
Li Xingnian greeted Old Lady Yan with a smile, and also said hello to Yan Zhigao and Yan Zhiqiang.
Madam Li knew her second brother had just returned from Xiliang, so she quickly asked, "Second brother, is the climate in Xiliang so bad? You've only been away for over three months, and you've already gotten so much darker. Wouldn't Yiyi and the others have gotten even darker if they'd stayed in Xiliang the entire time?"
Li Xingnian smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry, the climate in Xiliang is not very pleasant, but Yiyi doesn't go out often, so it's actually not that bad."
Mrs. Li was not comforted and her brows were a little gloomy.
Old Lady Yan was more tolerant than Madam Li. When her granddaughter was little, she would run around in the fields under the scorching sun, and she still grew up to be fair and tender.
Madam Li asked again, "Second brother, are Yiyi and the others in Xiliang okay?"
Li Xingnian smiled and nodded, "I'm fine." He handed the family letter that Daohua brought back to Madam Li, "One is for Prince Ping's Mansion, and one is for Duke Dingguo's Mansion. I'll have to trouble you to deliver these two."
Mrs. Li took the letter and sat down next to Old Lady Yan with her daughter's letter to her family. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law began to read it busily.
When Yan Zhigao saw this, he didn't go over to him, but instead asked Li Xingnian about what he saw and heard in Xiliang.
Li Xingnian immediately recounted what he had seen and felt along the way.
Everyone in the Yan family listened carefully. After reading the letter, Mrs. Li and Old Lady Yan also pricked up their ears and listened.
Hearing that Xiliang was indeed as poor as the rumors said, and that there were bandits, everyone couldn't help but worry about the lives of Daohua and Xiao Yeyang.
Seeing the Yan family members' heavy expressions, Li Xingnian smiled and told them about the rice terrace transformation and the purchase of the ranch: "I think Yiyi is as capable as any man. She can live well anywhere. Don't worry about her."
After sitting for a while, Li Xingnian followed Madam Li and Yan Zhigao to the main courtyard, and the others also came out of Old Lady Yan's courtyard.
"I thought my eldest sister had the best marriage among us sisters, but I didn't expect that she would have the worst life. In a place like Xiliang, with its poor mountains and bad waters, even if Uncle Li described it in a tactful way, I could still imagine how poor it is there."
As soon as they left Old Lady Yan's yard, Yan Yile said with some gloating.
After hearing this, Zhu Qiyun and Yan Yihan both frowned at the same time. Just as they were about to stop her from continuing, they heard Yan Yishuang's voice coming from behind.
Yan Yishuang walked over with her big belly, and sneered at Yan Yile: "Fourth sister, no matter how bad your life is, you still have your brother-in-law who loves you. Instead of being so sarcastic here, you might as well worry more about your own business."
"I heard that the concubine that Fourth Brother-in-law took in not long ago is very popular with Madam Fang and Fourth Brother-in-law. When I attended a banquet a few days ago, I heard someone say that she is Fourth Brother-in-law's sweetheart."
"Fourth sister, you are really generous. The backyard is on fire, and you still have the leisure to talk nonsense here. I really admire you."
As he said this, he glanced at Yan Yile's belly.
"It seems that since we are all family sisters, I will give you a piece of advice. Get pregnant as soon as possible. With a child, perhaps you can still gain a firm foothold in the Fang family."
She had seen the concubine of her fourth sister-in-law at another family's banquet. She was the daughter of a fifth-rank official who had just arrived in Beijing. Not only was she pretty, but she was also very scheming and resourceful. She was simply not someone that a brainless person like Yan Yile could deal with.
Yan Yishuang didn't look at the furious Yan Yile, but looked at Zhu Qiyun and Yan Yihan: "Second sister-in-law, second sister, please talk to the fourth sister."
After saying that, he helped the maid away.
Seeing Yan Yishuang leave with such a proud look on her face, Yan Yile was furious and gnashed her teeth as she said, "What is she so proud of? Don't think I don't know that there are several people in my third brother-in-law's room. Why is she showing off in front of me?"
Yan Yihan took a deep breath, and then dropped her previous euphemisms and spoke bluntly, "Because she's valued by her mother-in-law and husband, because she successfully conceived the Xue family's eldest grandson, and because the only people in Third Sister-in-law's room are concubines. Fourth Sister, tell me, which of these have you achieved?"
Yan Yile was a little angry and pointed at Yan Yihan: "Second sister, even you want to humiliate me? I have tried very hard, but my mother-in-law just doesn't like me, and my husband also ignores me. Since that bitch came into the house, she has never entered my room again. What can I do?"
Seeing Yan Yihuan was extremely angry, Zhu Qiyun soothed her with her hands and looked at Yan Yile calmly: "Fourth sister, everything you are going through now is the result of the karma you sowed in the past. The Fang family was your own choice, and Fang Shuo was also your own choice to marry."
Yan Yile fell silent, tears welling up in her eyes.
Seeing her like this, Zhu Qiyun and Yan Yihan both felt uncomfortable.
Zhu Qiyun sighed, "Fourth sister, what Third sister said just now was not wrong. You should not fight with that concubine. It is more important to get pregnant as soon as possible."
"As long as there is a child, even if Fourth Brother-in-law favors that concubine, for the sake of Great Uncle, he won't dare to favor the concubine over his wife."
Yan Yile suddenly became annoyed: "Don't mention my uncle to me. If my uncle and aunt had been willing to go to the Fang family for me when my husband married that bitch, that bitch would never have been able to enter the Fang family. Everything I have now is caused by them."
After hearing this, Zhu Qiyun and Yan Yihan both felt deeply tired.
Zhu Qiyun looked at Yan Yile with disappointment on her face: "Fourth sister, even if you didn't have that concubine, your life in the Fang family wouldn't be easy, so don't blame others here."
Hearing this, Yan Yile looked at Zhu Qiyun angrily, with a face full of dissatisfaction.
Zhu Qiyun: "Fourth sister, I'm going to make it clear today so you don't keep deceiving yourself. The way you married into the Fang family wasn't glorious to begin with. Madam Fang is very strict with rules and regulations, so you should be mentally prepared before you enter."
"If I were you, knowing that my mother-in-law would dislike me, I would keep my tail between my legs and behave myself. But what about you?"
"After marrying into the Fang family, you quarreled with your sister-in-law, openly talked back to your mother-in-law, and treated the concubine in your fourth brother-in-law's room with either beatings or scolding. Who would like you like this?"
"Come on, Fourth Sister, you've been married into the Fang family for almost a year now. Have you really not figured out what kind of person your fourth brother-in-law is?"
Yan Yile bit her lip and said nothing.
Zhu Qiyun continued, "You married into the Fang family. You should have known from the beginning that his motives for marrying you were not pure."
Yan Yile looked straight at Zhu Qiyun: "If my uncle was willing to help my husband get a position with real power, he wouldn't treat me like this. In the end, it's still my uncle's fault."
Zhu Qiyun didn't want to talk anymore and said to Yan Yihan, "I can't communicate with her, you talk to her." Then she left with her maid.
Looking at her sister who was stuck in a dead end and only knew how to blame others, Yan Yihan didn't know what to say and just looked at her worriedly.
I have something to do today, so I’ll only update once!
