After the fiancé was cut off by the county owner

Chapter 83
Yan Li came back from his duty and went back to the main courtyard to pay his respects to his mother after changing his official uniform.

Qi Tanying told him, "Uncle and aunt of the Du family came to the capital, and they are still with mother at this moment."

"When did you come?"

"It was just after noon." Qi Tanying said, "They brought Du Yu back too."

Yan Li's brows slightly moved when he heard this.

At this moment, the old lady Yan sent her maid to call Yan Li, and Qi Tanying was about to go with her, but the maid looked puzzled: "The old lady only asks the slaves to invite the master."

Qi Tanying smiled and said nothing.

On the other hand, Yan Li's face darkened, and she wanted to drag Qi Tanying along with her.

Qi Tanying shook off her hand, "You'd better go by yourself, I have other things to do."

Yan Li glanced at her, and went out with the maid who sent the message.

After he left, Ting Lan took the grievances on Qi Tanying's behalf: "Since the girl married into the Yan family, she not only has to manage the affairs of the Yan family, but also worries about the marriage of the relatives who live in the Yan family, but the old man."

Before she finished speaking, Qi Tanying stopped her.

She said to Ting Lan: "I know that you are wholeheartedly for my own good. Some things are fine. If you say something reasonable, it will become unreasonable."

Ting Lan felt a little frustrated, Qi Tanying patted her hand, "Okay, it's not a big deal, what's there to be angry about."

Seeing her smiling, Ting Lan felt even more blocked.

On the other side, Yan Li met his uncle's family at Mrs. Yan's place.

Yan Li's previous warning was still in his ears, and when Du Yu saw him, he hid behind Aunt Du, Yan Li glanced at him, and greeted Uncle Du and his wife.

Uncle Du smiled and complimented him: "Brother Li is getting more and more promising. He is a fourth-rank young minister of Dali Temple at a young age. He is really young and promising."

Mrs. Yan sneered, "If you read a little more, you won't be able to say such things." Her son is already thirty-one, so how can he be so young and promising?
Even being scolded for praising his nephew, Uncle Du didn't dare to say anything.

The old lady Yan gave him a sideways look, and told Yan Li about Uncle Du's business failure.

After she finished speaking, she expressed her guess again: "I suspect that your uncle was deceived by someone."

Yan Li also had this idea, "I will send someone to investigate. If my uncle was deliberately framed, I will definitely ask that person to kowtow in front of my uncle to apologize."

Uncle Du hurriedly said: "Kowtow to apologize is the second best thing, the most important thing is to compensate for my loss."

"That's natural."

After getting his nephew's assurance, Uncle Du felt relieved.Aunt Du was still thinking about her dowry and the mortgaged Du family's ancestral house, so she expressed her thoughts periodically.

Mrs. Yan gave Uncle Du a sharp eye again, and then asked Aunt Du to hand over the dowry list and send it to Qi Tanying, asking her to buy a new one according to the dowry list.

After seeing Aunt Du's dowry list, Qi Tanying didn't know whether to laugh or get angry.

Aunt Du really didn't mind eating ugly, and added a lot of things to the dowry list overnight, many of which were fashionable things in recent years.Naturally, Qi Tanying couldn't take such a list to buy more. After hesitating for a while, she took the dowry list to Mrs. Yan.

When Mrs. Yan saw the dowry list, she became angry immediately.She scolded Uncle Du and Aunt Du bloodily, and told them that she would ask someone to redeem the ancestral house, but the resetting of the dowry list was avoided.

Aunt Du naturally refused when she heard it, and cried and made noises in the yard of Mrs. Yan, and even scolded Qi Tanying for being uneasy and kind, deliberately targeting them.Old Madam Yan was already angry, but she became even more angry when she made such a fuss, and passed out on the spot.

Old Madam Yan was stunned, and Aunt Du didn't dare to make trouble anymore.Qi Tanying hurriedly invited a doctor, and sent someone to report to Yan Li at Dali Temple.

When Yan Li came back, he met the doctor who was seeing Mrs. Yan at the door.

Yan Li asked him about the physical condition of the old lady Yan, and the doctor told him: "The old lady fainted because of her exuberant liver fire and emotional agitation. Just take some medicinal soup that clears the liver and relieves fire, soothes the liver and regulates qi."

Yan Li felt relieved when he heard the words, the doctor said again: "The old lady is getting older, she still needs to calm down."

Yan Li made a note of it, and ordered the doctor to be sent out, and went straight to Old Madam Yan.

Although the old lady Yan is still awake, her breathing is steady and her complexion is normal. Most of the worries in Yan Li's heart have disappeared.

Then he asked Qi Tanying, "Where is Madam?"

Sister-in-law Wu said: "Madam has gone to make medicine for the old lady."

Yan Li asked about the reason for Old Madam Yan's fainting, but Sister-in-Law Wu did not dare to hide it, so she told him everything.

Yan Li's face became very ugly, he told his sister-in-law Wu to take a good look at Old Madam Yan, then turned and went to the kitchen.

At this time, there were only Qi Tanying and Ting Lan in the kitchen.

Qi Tanying was sitting in front of the small stove boiling medicine, and Ting Lan muttered to the side: "Madam, let Xiangzhi do the work of boiling medicine, why do you need to take care of it yourself?"

Qi Tanying said: "If I don't do anything, I really can't feel at ease."

"But the old lady was stunned by the greed of her uncle and wife, and it has nothing to do with you. Why should you feel guilty?"

Qi Tanying shook her head: "I should remind my mother in a tactful way."

Ting Lan was puzzled.

Qi Tanying said: "Except for Yuanniang, the Du family is all greedy and incompetent people, and Du Yu is even more stupid than his parents. Mother takes care of family affection, not only will she not let them eat A lesson will only fuel their arrogance, if someone wants to deal with the husband and the Yan family, they are ready-made rafts."

She sighed: "Blame me for being too impatient, otherwise my mother wouldn't be dizzy."

Ting Lan comforted her: "You didn't do it on purpose, old lady."

Before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by someone, "So, you deliberately stabbed this matter in front of my mother?"

A familiar angry voice sounded, and both master and servant looked at the owner of the voice.

Ting Lan's face was pale, my God, when did the uncle come, did he hear all the previous conversations between her and his wife?

Although Qi Tanying was a little flustered, she was much calmer than Ting Lan.

Qi Tanying hurriedly got up and walked in front of him, "I didn't mean to let you"

Yan Li sullenly said nothing.

Seeing his appearance, Qi Tanying didn't know how to explain, and asked, "Have you gone to see your mother?"

Yan Li still didn't speak, just stared at her a few times, then turned and left.

Qi Tanying quietly watched him go away, feeling very depressed and uncomfortable.

Ting Lan became anxious, "Ma'am, I'll go and explain to the uncle."

Her wife did all this for the uncle and the Yan family, not to make the old lady angry on purpose.If the uncle misunderstands, it will definitely affect their relationship as husband and wife.

"Don't go."

Qi Tanying turned her head and stopped the maid who was about to go out, "You are not allowed to say anything in front of him."

"But."

"It's nothing to say, it's useless to say more."

Qi Tanying thought very clearly, if she hadn't deliberately taken the dowry slip that Aunt Du had rigged to find her mother-in-law, her mother-in-law would not have been so angry.Speaking of which, it is true that she did something wrong.

　Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival!
