An Xiyue didn't know how she slept in bed. She woke up the next day when it was still dark.
Only then did she remember what happened last night. She had a big fight with Nangong Yuanyi.
An Xiyue patted her face and recalled how this fight started.
An Xiyue turned over and sat up, her eyes filled with hurt eyes and his lonely back as he turned to leave.
An Xiyue laughed at herself and murmured: "After all, we are destined to have no connection with him. Grandma is right. After all, it is not a good match for a well-matched match. Just like in the previous life, her grandmother tried her best to persuade her, but she went in mindlessly, and in the end she got hurt. Everyone was buried with her."
An Xiyue felt her chest was tight and a little painful. She stretched and got out of bed.
Now An Xiyue gets up every morning and runs every day in order to exercise the toughness of his leg tendons.
The sky was gray, so An Xiyue ran around the front yard twice. There was a family separation drama in the house, and the rough and long-term workers in the yard were not summoned, so there was no one around at this time, and An Xiyue practiced kicking her legs. In order to facilitate movement, An Xiyue braided her long hair and tied it behind her head. She wore a close-fitting short suit and trousers, and she looked somewhat heroic.
An Yuxiao goes out at this time every day. After An Xiyue returned to Junlan Garden, he returned to the study. Seeing such a unique eldest daughter, An Yuxiao's eyes were full of confusion.
"Yue'er, why are you dressed like this? You don't look like a lady." An Yuxiao didn't directly ask An Xiyue if she was practicing martial arts, but An Xiyue was still a young girl in the boudoir, so why should she learn that boxing and kicking skills.
"Running can stretch your muscles and keep fit." An Xiyue was so tired that she was sweating. Yingying came over and said, "Father, did you go to the government office so early?"
An Xiyue's small melon-shaped face was inlaid with two eyes as clear as gems. She actually went to the front yard to wait for her father. She knew that her father was currently working in the Ministry of Household Affairs. He was not a big or small person, but he had a position.
Changfeng followed An Yuxiao and saw the eldest lady practicing martial arts in the yard. She was as light as a swallow and offered him a greeting: "Good morning, eldest lady."
"Good morning, Guard Changfeng." An Xiyue responded with a salute that was neither humble nor overbearing.
Changfeng opened his mouth wide and stared so hard that his eyes almost popped out of his head. After not seeing each other for a few months, the obedient eldest lady actually changed a lot and became even more beautiful than the third lady.
An Yuxiao nodded. Looking at his eldest daughter's calm and composed expression, he hesitated to speak. After all, her mother was poisoned because of his father.
"It's cold outside. Wear more clothes when you go home. I'm on duty for my father at Shangguan Yamen."
"Father, my daughter has been back for two days, why don't you want to ask how your mother is doing?"
An Yuxiao stopped. He felt a little guilty. Ever since he knew that the poison was poisoned by Mei Yunluo through his body, he felt that he was also a murderer. He didn't know why he wanted to return to their home in Yuncheng now. During that time, now that his children are so old, he has been confused for so many years.
"Is...is she feeling better?" He originally wanted to ask when she would be back.
Seeing his father's complicated expression, An Xiyue sighed and said, "She should be back soon. My grandpa is with me, so my health should be fine."
An Yuxiao was always handsome, but now he was in high spirits. When he heard his daughter say this, he felt better: "It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back."
Changfeng couldn't help but said: "Miss, please bring the eldest lady back quickly." The comments of the officials outside were unpleasant.
Changfeng followed the master to the government office all day long, and naturally listened to the officials in the government office pointing out the master, and even scolded him for spoiling his concubine and destroying his wife, which was a disgrace to gentlemen and read sages' books in vain.
Changfeng was dissatisfied because the emperor had not dismissed the master from his post. Why did those petty officials and minor officials criticize the marquis? The master worked diligently every day, leaving early and coming back late. Changfeng could not understand why the master became like this. , now this incident has made Anpinghou's reputation outside the world completely lost, which is really annoying.
After Changfeng complained, An Xiyue had actually guessed that this would be the result. There might be people from the Lin family who were obstructing it, but things had already happened, and they were talking about others. It was wrong to ask them not to discuss it. impossible.
Even though her father has been doting on Lin Wan for more than ten years, she has not shaken her mother's position as the eldest lady. This shows that her father is not a heartless person, but Lin Wan uses tricks to charm her father around. Now that he is dead, she also I don’t want to hate my father anymore.
"My daughter wants to open a medical clinic, but our Northern Dynasty has regulations that require approval procedures to open a medical clinic. Can my father find someone he knows to help?" She didn't want to ask Nangong Yuanyi for help with everything, the more favors she owed him. , she will feel more indebted to him.
An Yuxiao looked at her eldest daughter in shock and stopped, "No."
"Why not? Our customs in the Northern Dynasty are open, and there is a precedent for women to open medical clinics."
"You are the legitimate daughter of the Hou Mansion. It's just nonsense to open a medical clinic." An Yuxiao said angrily.
"The reason why my daughter is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis Mansion is because she has inherited her grandfather's contribution to flood control. In the past ten years, no one in our An family family has looked down upon her. Even her father only received the fixed salary of the Marquis title. During the holidays, It is a token gift of cloth and jewelry. The late Emperor did indeed reward our family with some farmland and property. Grandma also said that she still had some money left with her as a dowry for us, but she was just waiting for Grandma's to be used up before we settled down. The mother's dowry has been wiped out by Aunt Lin a long time ago. The father is now serving in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, so the salary is naturally calculated separately, but we cannot ignore the expenses of this large family. With my daughter's skills, It can help more people, and my daughter finds it very meaningful.”
An Yuxiao did not expect that the eldest daughter would speak so harshly. What she meant was that the reason why he sat in the position of Anping Marquis was because of his father's achievements, but he had not made any achievements after sitting in the position for more than ten years. Not only did he not He wanted to win honor and fame for Anfu and gain merit, but it was because he did not understand people well and allowed a woman to use up her mother's entire dowry.
An Yuxiao has been studying the books of sages since he was a child. Not only is he rich in economics, but he can also recite the literature of everyone from ancient times to the present. Moreover, he was also admitted to the Juren Examination. If it weren't for a pie falling on his head for no reason after entering Beijing, he would have been It is also necessary to become an official to benefit the people of a certain area.
I just don’t know why he sinks deeper and deeper as he gets to the back.
An Yuxiao looked at such a stubborn eldest daughter and felt that she could see the character of the old man in her. Their father was so strict in educating the three brothers.
