Mrs. Li went back to the inner room, asked her maid to tidy up, and then walked to Qingyouyuan. Qingyouyuan is a small courtyard located by the lake. Not far next door is Ruolingyuan, which was where Su used to be. The place where Ruo and Su Ling live.
Su Ling is now considered married, and the yard is already empty. The door is closed on weekdays, and only people arranged by Wang will come to clean it every two days.
Qingyou Garden was originally an empty courtyard with a quiet environment and some bamboos planted there, so it was given the elegant name Qingyou.
The courtyard of Qingyouyuan is quite large, but there are not many houses. There are only three main rooms and three west wing rooms.
When Mrs. Li came, Aunt Mei was in the yard having people clean the bamboo bushes in the yard. Several maids and servants were walking back and forth in the yard.
"Third Young Madam."
Mrs. Li nodded and asked her: "How are you cleaning up?!"
Meigu said: "I just started cleaning up, and Miss Li is in the house. Madam Third Young Master might as well ask Miss Li if there is anything else missing?!"
Aunt Mei was actually a little unhappy. Originally, she could only entertain the Li family, but something happened, so Wang had no choice but to send her to take care of it.
Li said: "Okay, I'll go take a look first."
After saying that, Mrs. Li walked to the main hall. When she entered the room, Li Yuyan was sitting on a chair. Cha'er was standing on the side, lowering her head and talking to her. There was some displeasure on her face. Li Yuyan nodded, but there was nothing else. expression.
"Yuyan."
"Auntie is here." Li Yuyan stood up to greet Mrs. Li, and then the two of them sat down aside.
Mrs. Li looked at the maids who were still wiping the tables, chairs and shelves in the room, and then asked Li Yuyan: "You just saw that there is nothing everywhere in the house, but is there anything missing?!"
Li Yuyan said: "When I go back to my aunt, Yuyan has brought a lot of things, and there is no shortage of them. I just need to trouble my aunt to choose a few maids. When I was at home, there was only Cha'er around Yuyan, but now I'm afraid... I can’t take care of you.”
Ms. Li nodded: "I'll have someone make arrangements soon."
"Let's go and see the dormitory."
The prepared bedroom was in the west wing. It had been cleaned at this time, and the door and windows were open for ventilation. Bedding and other items were not laid out. Li and Li Yuyan walked around the room and felt quite satisfied.
Finally, Mrs. Li pushed Li Yuyan onto the chair in front of the dressing table and ordered Cha'er to take out Li Yuyan's powder jewelry box.
"aunt?!"
Li said: "I will wait at the door for Ah Xun to come back from get out of class. You can come with me. You haven't seen Ah Xun for a long time, so you must miss him too."
Li Yuyan paused, then nodded: "My aunt is right, Yuyan really misses Ah Xun, and she is very happy to see Ah Xun earlier."
"I knew Yuyan that you were thinking about Ah Xun."
Mrs. Li personally re-tied Li Yuyan's hair into a bun, put on her makeup, and put the beaded flower on her head into her bun. She smiled and said, "A beauty deserves a good hairpin, and this hairpin is mine." My favorite one, your aunt is old, so I just gave it to you."
Li Yuyan thanked me gently: "Thank you, aunt."
Ms. Li patted her hand and said, "Thank you for what I did. I am your aunt and I should treat you well. That is what I should do."
Li Yuyan smiled movedly: "It's right for my aunt to be kind to Yuyan, but it's also right for Yuyan to thank my aunt. If my aunt treats me well and I don't even thank her, then I'm a fool."
After listening to Li Yuyan's words, Mrs. Li felt a burst of emotion in her heart. Yes, Yuyan is right. If you are good to others, they should be good to you. I don't think she has been good to Su Wan for so many years, but I don't see what happened to her. Thank you, but now I am not even willing to help with this small favor, and I don't take her seriously at all.
She knew that she had a low status, and as a stepmother, she still had to respect her as the legitimate daughter of her original wife. Su Xun was right, this was what she should do, and it was something she had promised at the beginning. She had no way to refute it, it was done. At this point, she always has to think about herself.
The sister-in-law is right. If Yu Yan and Su Jian can make things happen, then it will be the best for the Li family, her, and even her two children.
Even if it wasn't for the Li family, but for herself, she would still help.
Mrs. Li ordered someone to take out the clothes that Li Yuyan had brought. She looked at them again and again and was very dissatisfied. Finally, she chose a blue dress with dark bamboo embroidery for her to change into.
Mrs. Li looked at Li Yuyan's clothes, which made her have a slender waist, long legs, fair skin, and youthful beauty. Although she was not as good-looking as the girls in the Su family, she was still a beauty.
Mrs. Li was a little satisfied, and she said, "I will go to the warehouse tomorrow to see if there are any good fabrics, and then I can make you two sets of clothes."
"Thank you, aunt."
Seeing that the time was almost up, Mrs. Li took her with her and sent someone to pick up Su Luo. Then they went to the gate to pick up Su Xun who was about to finish class.
The children and grandchildren of the Su family, except Su Wang, all studied literature, especially the grandchildren. At the age of six, they invited their husband Xuan Qimeng to go to the academy. At the age of ten, they went to the academy. One year when I went to college.
There are four brothers in the Su family. The first one is the eldest grandson Su Jian, followed by Su Ying and Su Fu from the second bedroom, and finally Su Xun from the third bedroom.
The eldest brother and the third brother are brothers from the same mother, so their relationship is naturally better. As the older brother, Su Jian takes good care of the young Su Xun. He goes to school with him every day, comes back together, and takes him to various gatherings.
Su Xun is still young at the moment, and although he doesn't understand anything, it's great to be led by Su Jian and listen from the sidelines. Su Xun has a very good relationship with Su Jian, and he will also teach him some things. , can't be learned from boring books or teachers' classes.
After returning from get out of class today, Su Jian and Su Xun shared a car. Su Jian told Su Xian the teacher's lecture notes today. Su Xian sat on the side and listened carefully. He was a young boy who studied very hard.
"The eldest young master, the fourth young master, are here."
The carriage stopped at the door of Jinning Palace. Su Jian and Su Xun packed up their things and got out of the carriage. As soon as they got off the carriage, they saw several people standing at the door. The one standing in the middle was Mrs. Li. Holding her hand, there was a young girl beside her.
Seeing the carriage stop and someone lifting the curtain, Mrs. Li took Su Luo to greet it.
Su Jian got off the carriage first. When he saw Mrs. Li and Su Luo, he still had a smile on his face and greeted him respectfully: "Auntie three, how come A Luo is out too?!"
Su Luo said happily: "Brother! A Luo will come out to pick you and fourth brother up!"
"Ajian." Ms. Li smiled softly and pointed to Li Yuyan beside her. "This is my niece from my mother's family. Her name is Yuyan. She came to stay in the house temporarily today. Today we also said that we missed Ajian, so we took her with her. She came to meet Ah Xun.”
Su Jian suddenly understood. He got off the carriage and bowed slightly to Li Yuyan:
"It turns out that she is a cousin of the Li family. She lives in the house. If anything doesn't go well with her, just tell her third aunt."
