Catching wind and grasping shadows, sowing discord among people

  At noon, Bai Ping came back.

  How?

  Quietly standing under the persimmon tree, with hands clasped behind his back, he looked like a famous strategist.

  Zhao Man was interrogated by the young master as soon as he returned to the Zhao residence yesterday, and it is said that he was beaten with fifty large boards, and was immediately expelled from the Zhao residence.

  Bai Ping said with a smile in his eyes. Zhao Man had been making things difficult for the siblings, and he deserved this kind of ending.

  This is also his own fault, so it can be said that heaven's wrath can be survived, but self-inflicted calamity cannot.

  It's exactly this principle, Zhao Man deserved his punishment.

  Yes, did the people from the Zhao residence give you a hard time?

  A faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and a soft glow flickered in her eyes.

  When it comes to this, Bai Ping's expression became serious and he said slowly: I arrived at the Zhao residence today, after explaining my identity to the gatekeeper, I was led to see the county magistrate's wife and the young master of the Zhao family. They were very surprised when they saw that only one person had come. I immediately presented the letter you wrote, and after reading it, their faces could not hide their anger. After a while, the county magistrate's wife let me leave, but didn't say anything else.

  It's just as I expected.

  Her gentle words were like a blooming lotus flower, refreshing and elegant.

  Bai Ping furrowed his brow, but didn't understand. An Yan turned his head and looked at him, explaining carefully: Do you still remember the encounter with Wei Li yesterday?

  It's natural to remember.

  As for Wei Li, it's as if he had turned to dust, and Bai Ping would never forget. If not for this wicked man's betrayal, the White family might not have ended up in such a tragic situation.

  We met Wei Li yesterday and went to the teahouse together for a while. As a result, I wrote a letter to Zhao's house today saying that I won't go to treat Old Master Zhao today. What do you think they will think?

  They will surely think that Weili is involved in this matter.

  Her eyebrows relaxed slightly, as if she had understood something.

  That's right.

  Her words were calm and composed, with a confident smile at the corner of her mouth, she waited for the Zhao family to punish Wei Li, this scum.

  So you're saying Weili stopped you from going to the Zhao residence to treat Old Man Zhao?

  No.

  Bai Ping thought he had figured out the trick, and immediately smiled with joy, saying his guess out loud. But to his surprise, his guess was denied by An Yan.

  If it were done that way, it would seem too deliberate. Such means would inevitably fall into the lower ranks. I was secretly pointing to the county government as the mastermind behind the scenes in my heart, and explicitly stating that I absolutely cannot treat the relatives of enemies. From start to finish, not a single word about Wei Li was mentioned.

  If so, why didn't you say it at the time... oh... I get it, this is to let them guess and figure it out themselves.

  Bai Ping was initially very puzzled, wasn't this hatred clear as day? Why did he only mention it in the letter today, but not yesterday when they met the county magistrate's wife. Just as he had spoken halfway through, he himself understood the connection between them.

  Indeed, at first it was not said that it was unknown. Later on, it was said that later on, it became known. And why did you know? That's a mystery. The time spent with Wei Li must have been traceable, and the Zhao Mansion and County Government will be able to investigate soon.

  Yes, if we had explicitly mentioned Wei Li, there might have been a suspicion of framing. But now, we haven't said anything, and instead, they've shifted their attention to Wei Li. This time, let's make Wei Li experience the pain of being guilty but unable to explain it. What is the suffering of being framed, being wronged?

  Damn Weili, even if she dies a thousand times it's not enough.

  His eyes were bloodshot, his fists clenched tightly, and he looked like a wild beast preying on its prey. An Yan saw him like this and let out a soft sigh, as if to himself, or perhaps to Bai Ping: One day, the county magistrate and the Wu family will pay the price. Wei Li was just the beginning; since they had done evil, they would eventually have to repay it.

  The faint crimson in his eyes slowly dissipated, and some clarity returned. After becoming slightly more lucid, he too began to ponder this plan. After all, seeking revenge was like dancing on the tip of a knife - with even the slightest carelessness, it could lead to catastrophic consequences.

  I think that county magistrate's wife is not a kind person, I'm afraid that if you cure Old Master Zhao, she will take revenge on us afterwards.

  Bai Ping's worries were not unreasonable, but An Yan was calm and composed, with a confident expression as if he had already won.

  I had thought of this long ago. If you want to take revenge after the event, then Master Zhao's illness must be cured first. But what if Master Zhao's illness never gets better? What if he can't leave me and needs my treatment every now and then? In that case, even the county magistrate's wife would have to be cautious. Of course, it's not a long-term solution to always be in this state of limbo; they will eventually feel threatened. So I'll have to take another path at the same time.

  Another way?

  Two heads are better than one, and with an added money-making formula? This formula will make Wei Li's trap more reasonable and allow us to reap the benefits while ensuring our safety. Plotting with a tiger is not impossible.

  Plotting with a tiger to take its skin is not necessarily impossible.

  Savoring these few words carefully, I feel their flavor is endless.

  Yes, today the Bai family is weak and has no choice but to rely on the power of their enemies, colluding with the tiger to take its skin. Another day, once they gain power, they will flay and dismember those wicked thieves with hearts like tigers and wolves, and it won't be too late.

  In the afternoon, An Yan and Bai Ping met a servant from the Zhao residence on their way to Hsinchu County. After some hesitation, they followed the servant to the Zhao residence.

  At this time, inside the Zhao residence.

  Auntie, is it really Wei Li who's causing trouble behind the scenes?

  Young Master Zhao Li of the Zhao Manor held a folded fan in his hand, and at this moment, he was tapping the handle of the fan against his palm with one edge, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, looking deeply thoughtful.

  Madam Zhao sat opposite to Zhao Li, holding a teacup in her hand and sipping slowly, with an elegant and composed demeanor, like a noblewoman. After hearing Zhao Li's words, she said with disdain: What, do you still think there is some conspiracy? Those Bai family people are just a few peasants. If there really was some great conspiracy, they wouldn't have been easily manipulated to the point of father dying and son being injured.

  For those who are powerless and have no influence, Zhao naturally had three points of contempt in his heart.

  Aunt's words are wrong. Although it is true that the Bai family is just a few farmers, Su Tang seems to be not an ordinary one.

  The Zhao family naturally inquired about the White family's affairs and now has a good understanding of their situation. They even know some things about An Yansi, the abandoned daughter.

  Different, what's different? Nowadays, isn't she still living in the White family and also being the young lady of the wealthy Tang family in Qingcheng?

  Zhao's response was to turn up her nose in scorn, ultimately it was just jealousy in her heart. She was jealous that An Yan had once held a higher status than her, and now her tone was full of disdain and contempt.

  Upon hearing this, Zhao Li felt very uncomfortable and his eyes were filled with discontent.

  This aunt is the wife of the county magistrate, with not much ability in her wrist, but with a lot of arrogance and pretentiousness. However, her identity is there, and in Hsinchu County, the influence of her husband behind her back is extremely great. Therefore, even if he doesn't like it, Zhao Li dare not show too much on his face.

  Wei Li has already been caught, I just went to ask him, but he insisted that he didn't know anything. Looking at his expression, it seemed like he really didn't know anything. He said that yesterday he only ran into the Bai siblings and chatted with them for a few sentences casually.

  If we just chat casually, can we talk about going to a teahouse? That Wei Li, his words are really too careless.

  He said it was proposed by the Bai family siblings, who had a strange look on their faces at the time. He thought to see what the two were up to, so he followed them. Who knew that after arriving at the teahouse, they didn't say anything and just drank tea. Wei Li insisted that this was a trick of the Bai family siblings, a plot to frame him. Auntie, think about it, if the Bai family really wanted to use our hands to get rid of Wei Li, it's not impossible.

  Zhao Li's analysis was spot on, but it left Zhao stunned for a moment. However, she still found it hard to believe that those two people would dare play such tricks in front of her?

  See you later, Bai family siblings.

  Zhao Li rubbed the fan handle with his palm, but in his heart, he was already on high alert. If this woman was indeed as he had imagined, then she would be a clever and resourceful one.

  Report to Grandma and Young Master, Su Tangshi and Bai Ping have arrived.

  Let them come in.

  Zhao's expression turned stern and dignified.

  After An Yan and Bai Ping entered, they gave a ceremonial bow to the two people, then stood upright in the center of the hall.

  The first time Zhao Li saw An Yan, he felt that she was elegant and outstanding. The small woman, even in a coarse linen dress, couldn't hide her captivating beauty. With just one glance, Zhao Li knew he was enchanted by this little woman who understood medicine. As if excited, his already small eyes narrowed slightly, emitting an unusual glow from within. No matter, this little woman had come to diagnose his father's illness, and there would be plenty of opportunities.

  Tang Jinxiu, just now Wei Li said that you all framed him, don't you have something to explain?

  Zhao saw An Yan and Bai Ping, and his questioning words came out directly.

  Upon hearing this, An Yan raised his head, a puzzled expression on his face. "Framed? What did we frame him for? Can the county lord's wife please clarify her words? We don't quite understand."

  Her words left Zhao Li with a puzzled expression, and he slightly raised an eyebrow, finding this little woman more and more interesting. This little woman was either as innocent as lake water or had a deep and clever mind, unparalleled in intelligence. Either way, she deeply attracted him.

  The content of your letter...

  Zhao said up to here, but stopped. She originally wanted to ask if what you said in your heart wasn't told by Wei Li? But as soon as she said that, she remembered herself. Others didn't say anything in their hearts, it was just her own guess that Wei Li was playing tricks. Now, Zhao was a bit speechless and didn't know what to say, so she turned to ask Zhao Li.

  Zhao Li received the signal, and his hand holding the fan handle slightly opened, then he gently tapped it with the fan handle. His eyebrows were narrow and long, if not smiling, they looked a bit gloomy. If he smiled, they looked a bit cunning. At this time, Zhao Li looked a bit cunning, and he said with a gentle smile: I don't know if Mrs. Su and Wei Li, the owner of Mingyue Wine House, have any grudges?

  Her expression turned cold, her eyebrows filled with hatred, and her voice was as icy as she said: Yes, it's absolutely not just a simple festival. That Wei Li had betrayed his trust and abandoned his righteousness, harming my uncle and second cousin. Now, he's actually...

  An spoke up to this point and then stopped, with an expression of not wanting to say more.

  But Zhao Shi and Zhao Li suddenly lit up, exchanging a subtle glance.

  Wei Li has always been generous and has a good reputation in the county. But I don't know why you are talking about Wei Li like this?

  Zhao Li's fan waved back and forth in his hand, with a very puzzled expression.

  An Yan's face turned even darker with anger, his words full of malice and sarcasm. "You're just a petty person," he said. "In the past, our White family collaborated with them on the production of bamboo leaf green wine, but later this scoundrel colluded with Qingfeng Wine House to frame us. We had no power or influence at that time, so we could only swallow our anger and humiliation. Who would have thought that after all these years, our White family has finally managed to get back on its feet? Recently, we accidentally came up with a way to make money, but it was unexpectedly discovered by Wei Li. Yesterday, he intercepted us on the road and wanted to discuss this matter with us. But what's there to talk about? Why would we want to negotiate with our enemy?" An Yan's expression changed when he mentioned that there were other circumstances involved. He paused and looked at Zhao Shi with a hesitant expression, his eyes seeming to hold hatred and resentment. Zhao Shi and Zhao Li immediately thought of many possibilities, and their hearts seemed to have guessed the ins and outs of the whole situation. In her heart, Zhao Shi was secretly cursing Wei Li, thinking that he not only wanted to monopolize the benefits but also dared to shift the blame onto them - it was simply outrageous. "This damned Wei Li," she thought, "will definitely be dealt with by our master when we return."

  Zhao thought to himself with a hint of resentment, then looked up and said seriously: I know what Wei Li wants to say now, it must be about that case. That matter, well, although the evidence is conclusive, but, alas, we are indeed at fault.

  Mr. Zhao's words were only half spoken, but the meaning he wanted to convey had already been fully expressed. An Yan seemed to be touched, and his face showed a difficult and entangled expression before continuing: Later, we followed Wei Li to the tea house and also discussed cooperation matters. Yesterday, it was because of this matter that we couldn't come to an agreement and left in anger. That Wei Li actually said he wanted a 9-to-1 split. He would take nine parts and our White family would get one part. If we didn't agree, he would again put our White family members in prison. Such conditions, how could we accept? Even if the two families had no grudges, it was still impossible to listen to him. Let alone, our White family and his Wei Li may have deep blood feuds. Although he has always denied it, pushing this matter onto others, but he is also inseparable from this matter.

  How to make money?

  Zhao Li's eyes lit up again, and as for the previous bamboo leaf green, it indeed earned a lot of silver for the Wu and Wei families, making the Zhao family envy them for a while. But this time, they couldn't fall behind others again, and they had to seize the opportunity first.

  This method is the key to our Bai family's resurgence, and for us Bai people, it's more important than life itself. Therefore, we must grasp it firmly in our hands and absolutely will not collaborate with the enemy family.

  The meaning is already very clear, absolutely will not sell the secret recipe, can only cooperate. There's another thing that absolutely won't cooperate with enemies, but in the past, the county magistrate was also involved in the White family's affairs. So if you want to get rid of the name of enemy, find a scapegoat then. As for the choice of scapegoat, An Yan has already helped them choose, as long as it's not an idiot, everyone knows who to use at this time.

  I am also deeply grieved by what happened to your uncle and cousin; it was all due to Wei Li's fault.

  Zhao accepted Zhao Li's hint and began to speak in a low voice.

  Na Wei-li had a good reputation in Hsinchu County to begin with, and that day he produced conclusive evidence, and the old master was also acting according to the law.

  The words were brief, but the Wu family was not mentioned at all. After all, if Wu Kai, the young master of the Wu family, really had a good relationship with Miss Ruan Yuancheng from Qingcheng, then the Wu family's status in Xinzhu County would be entirely different. Zhao Li saw that An Yan's expression had relaxed and continued to speak: Because the evidence is conclusive, Uncle can only make a judgment according to the law. However, he felt that there was something suspicious about the case, so he secretly continued to investigate and collect relevant evidence. Now, some progress has been made. I believe that soon the truth will be revealed, and Wei Li will no longer be able to deny it.

  An said with a thoughtful expression, speaking softly: I also believe that County Master was deceived by Wei Li and Wu Kui, everything originated from Wei Li and Wu Kui.

  Indeed...

  Zhao also stood by with a faint sigh, his expression sorrowful, but the arrogance between his eyebrows was not reduced in the slightest.

  The deceased is gone, and cannot be brought back. Now the only thing that can be done is to bring the evil person to justice. This time, our Zhao family will take charge, and soon we will hand him over to the authorities, and he will definitely be punished. At that time, we will also ask Wei Li to write out the reasons, and at that time, it will certainly be presented for Su Furen and the Bai family to see.

  Zhao Li's face showed a sorrowful expression, and his words were righteous and benevolent.

  But in her heart, she was coldly laughing. If it weren't for the fact that they had thrown out a way to make money, you would not have pushed Wei Li out so quickly. If it weren't for the fact that she held Zhao Fu's life and death in her hands, they would not be so kind as to help her take revenge. Everything, after all, is driven by self-interest.

  Thank you, madam and young master, you are really good people. Jin Xiu refused so decisively yesterday, but you still...

  He put on a look of being deeply moved, leaving Zhao Shi and Zhao Li completely convinced.

  The way to make money is by using chrysanthemum as a material, and at the right time, various foods and medicines can be made from it. The recipes for these foods and the formula for the medicine are all secrets. Now that we see the kindness of the lady and young master, our White family wants to cooperate with both families, I wonder if it's possible?

  Cooperating with the Qiu family, although reluctantly, is the safest and most stable option. If we continue to keep a low profile, when will we be able to earn enough money to rival the Qiu family? Anyway, whatever they've eaten, just let them spit it out later.

  Zhao's heart skipped a beat, listening to it was a way to make money. Coincidentally, this little woman's medical skills were extraordinary, and now she was on the rise, if she took the opportunity to launch some kind of medicinal cream, it would definitely be a profitable formula.

  Our Zhao family has always had fixed partners for cooperation, and we are very cautious. However, your White family's experience has deeply moved me, so I'll make an exception this time. This time, our Zhao family will take the lead in cooperating with your White family, and my uncle, the county magistrate, will participate as a shareholder due to his identity. I won't cheat you; let's divide the shares seven-three, with the Zhao estate and the county government taking seven and your White family taking three. How is that?

  How? An Wen really wants to ask a sentence, why don't you go and grab it.

  It's just that in the end, what came out was: This is naturally very good, let it be this way.

  Anyway, when the time comes, she will think of ways to extract silver money from it. Her mind is full of corrupt means. No, this doesn't count as corruption, she takes her own earned money, that's also open and honest.

  Now that this matter has been cleared up, it's all due to Wei Li's efforts. The misunderstanding has been explained, but I don't know if Madam Su can cure my father's illness?

  Zhao Li stood up and politely said to An Yan.

  Zhao also got up, but there was not much smile on his face. For now, it's just like this, if we really make money later, then it will be like the bamboo leaf green, what about unloading the mill and killing the donkey?

  It's all right, Master Bao, please take us brothers and sisters there.

  Zhao Li listened and then led the way in front, but after a while, he brought two people to the study of Master Zhao.

  As soon as she entered the room, An Yan smelled a strong medicinal smell. Her face changed, and she quickly walked a few steps to Master Zhao's bedside, looked at Master Zhao's complexion, and suddenly her face changed greatly.

  Quickly, open the window and let the medicinal smell in the room dissipate.

  Everyone was confused, the servants in the room looked at each other in dismay, not knowing what identity this sudden intruder had. It was Zhao Li who reacted and shouted: Didn't you do as Madam Su said?

  The maids and young servants in the room finally came to their senses, one by one, and hurriedly got up to open the windows. Suddenly, a gentle breeze blew in, refreshing the air inside the room.

  She came to the bedside of Old Zhao again, took out a strand of red thread from her sleeve, and handed it to one of the maidservants, saying: "Tie this red thread around your master's left wrist."

  Yahuan looked puzzled all over her face, but since the young master on one side didn't say anything, she obediently followed suit.

  Ya Huang tied up the red thread, and An Yan began to move the Qixingxiang.

  Zhao Li had sent someone to investigate, so he naturally had some hearsay about the diagnosis of the hanging silk thread. However, there was a big difference between hearsay and seeing it with his own eyes. At this moment, what he saw with his own eyes still left Zhao Li's heart shaken.

  When diagnosing the pulse, I already had a plan in mind. This Mr. Zhao's condition is similar to Old Man Yu's, just slightly more severe. If we were to give him medicine, it would be one more dose than Old Man Yu, and he should fully recover within a month or so.

  How is my father's illness?

  Zhao Lipei was somewhat anxious and hastily asked after An Yan finished examining him.

  Upon hearing Zhao Li's words, An Yan's expression turned solemn and he spoke in a low tone: "Master Zhao's illness is slightly more severe than that of my father. If it were just this, then using some extra medicinal materials would be fine. However, Master Zhao has consulted countless doctors over the years and taken countless prescriptions. Due to those chaotic and disorganized medicinal materials, Master Zhao's illness has become somewhat complicated and difficult to treat."

  Zhao Li looked at An Yan seriously for a moment, and seeing that her expression didn't seem fake, and what she said also made sense, he temporarily didn't have much doubt.

  What should we do then? What medicine is needed, just let us know and we will definitely try our best to get it.

  A faint glimmer flashed across his eyes, and he nodded seriously before writing down a long list of medicinal names on the paper prepared on the table. After finishing, he blew it dry and handed it back to Zhao Li, saying: Some of the medicinal materials listed here are quite difficult to find, but they will be very beneficial for Mr. Zhao's body. Also, some of these medicinal materials have strict requirements for fire control during brewing, so when the time comes, I will personally come to brew this prescription.

  On the surface, he said so, but in his heart, he was thinking that those rare and precious medicinal materials would be most beneficial to Er Ye's body. It just so happened that this time, they could obtain the medicine with the help of the Zhao family.

  Men and women do not give or receive things directly, your father needs medicine steaming, we will go to Renhe Hall and tell Dr. Gao about it later, and he will come over to administer it later. From now on, I will come to the mansion once every half month, and it will take about a year for Mr. Zhao to recover more or less.

  If it were someone else, they would be fine in a month. But for Zhao Lao Ye, sorry to say, for her and the Bai family's safety, he can only spend more time lying in bed.

  It's almost like that, I'll go back first. As for the cooperation, since the chrysanthemum blooming season has not arrived yet, it will take some days, so there is no hurry. When the time comes, come and discuss with the young master again.

  This isn't urgent, I've thought it over and I'm telling you guys.

  Zhao Li's smile on her face grew thicker, and there was a strange glow flashing in the corners of her eyes. An Yan stood beside her, feeling slightly uncomfortable, and quietly took a step back, but hastily bid farewell: "Nothing, my brother and sister will take their leave first."

  I'll have someone send you back.

  No need, we often go back and forth between Green Bamboo Village and Hsinchu County, it's already familiar, no need to trouble the young master. Let's not say more, we'll take our leave here.

  After finishing speaking, An Yan and Bai Ping left the Zhao residence.

  An said to take Ruihe Tang first, and told Gao Lao about Zhao Lao Ye's situation, asking him to administer some medicine. At first, when Gao Lao heard An's diagnosis, he was very puzzled. After all, Yu Lao Die's illness was also severe, but he recovered in a few days. How could it be that with Zhao Lao Ye, it would take a whole year to recover? He thought for a moment and remembered some things, and could only sigh helplessly in his heart.

  After leaving Renhe Hall, the two of them hurried home.

  Jin Xiu, what was that you said about chrysanthemums just now?

  This idea I had initially only thought about in my heart, but didn't dare to implement. The last time with the bamboo leaf green incident left a deep impression, but if we follow the old routine of whipping the shoots, it's likely to be too eye-catching. Once or twice may not be noticeable, but if it happens again... As long as someone with a keen mind thinks carefully, they will be able to discover the hidden trick.

  Indeed.

  Bai Ping also knew that using the same method once was clever, but using it again would make it easy for people to see through.

  So, I thought it would be better to put it on the surface. Cooperate with Zhao Fu, let the county order be our backing, then we can play freely and make money without worrying too much. As for other things later, we can think of other ways.

  Brocade, are you going to start a business processing chrysanthemum?

  Bai Ping just heard An Yan say in Zhao Fu's house that chrysanthemum can be made into food or medicine to sell, so he had such doubts.

  I want to create a brand, a chrysanthemum brand, and then sell all sorts of things that contain chrysanthemums. Chrysanthemum tea, chrysanthemum cakes, chrysanthemum sweet meat, and so on. Hmm, I suddenly thought that maybe we can open a store in the county, and at that time, it will specialize in selling our Bai family's products.

  He looked at the woman beside him with a serious expression, watching as she spoke enthusiastically about making money, and then naturally mentioned the Bai family. At that moment, he felt that his father's love for this woman was even biased, and it was worth it. Such a woman was worth giving everything for.

  Big brother, what's wrong? Why are you looking at me like this?

  An Yan suddenly found that Bai Ping was looking at him with a serious expression beside him, so he stopped his footsteps and turned his head in confusion.

  Bai Ping withdrew his gaze, but smiled warmly. Nothing, just suddenly felt that our Bai family's brocade was particularly powerful.

  So you just found out? I thought Big Brother had discovered it long ago.

  A rare smile with a hint of playfulness appeared on his face, and his calm eyes were full of vitality.

  It doesn't matter, there is still plenty of time and opportunity in the future to continue discovering.

  Bai Ping spoke as he walked briskly forward, the sunlight casting long shadows behind them, filling them with a joyful sense of returning home.

  When they arrived home, Xiū Niáng seized the opportunity and caught the two of them red-handed.

  What's going on? I think you two have been acting strange for the past couple of days, hurry up and tell me about the progress!

  Xiu Niang was a perceptive person, and she had also keenly sensed some differences over the past few days. An Yan didn't hide anything from her, and now told her everything in detail.

  Xiu Niang listened and then pulled An Yan's hand, her eyes were moist, her face full of apology, "Jin Xiu, I've wronged you."

  Embarrassed, what's there to be embarrassed about...

  A gentle word and a calm expression, but I don't know where Xiu Niang's grievances come from.

  You originally didn't want people to know that you could heal, but now for revenge, you've actually started practicing medicine...

  The beauty's words were choked with sobs and she couldn't get them out.

  This matter has been greatly misunderstood...

  She actually loves practicing medicine, using her own knowledge to help patients escape suffering and gain health. The sense of accomplishment and happiness is hard to express.

  Actually, I like practicing medicine. The feeling of controlling life and death is wonderful.

  ……

  ……

  Bai Ping and Hua Niang were both speechless at the same time, as they were worried about An Yan's reputation, but An Yan had come up with such a powerful sentence that left them both speechless.

  Xiu Niang looked at An Yan with a pleased expression that didn't seem fake, and she also felt relieved, so she asked about other details.

  When I heard that the back was going to do chrysanthemum business, I was also very surprised. I didn't know that the small yellow flower had such a great benefit. In the past, I just thought that the little yellow flower was pretty, but now hearing Jinxiu say this, it turns out that it is also very useful.

  Yes, so these days Xiū Niáng you pay attention to it, take a look at the village which people are honest and reliable, when the time comes to hire them to pick chrysanthemum. I think, after Mid-Autumn Festival, our days will be busy.

  That feeling is good.

  Xiu Niang was naturally happy about it. Recently, the Bai family hasn't been brewing wine either, and their fields have also been abandoned. She's really bored now.

  When it comes to Mid-Autumn Festival, we should celebrate it properly and let the kids have fun.

  When it comes to Mid-Autumn Festival, An Yan feels a little melancholy, with thoughts and loneliness flashing in her eyes.

  Yes, Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching without realizing it.

  Bai Ping followed with a gentle sigh, and a hint of joy appeared on his face.

  I don't know if it's because I thought of Mid-Autumn Festival, but An Yan was still a bit down after dinner. She didn't want others to notice, so she went back to her room early after finishing her meal.

  She was sitting on the bed in a daze when Su San pushed open the door and came in.

  In half a month's time, it will be Mid-Autumn Festival.

  Yeah, it's quite tacit understanding, and the two of them actually thought of the same thing.

  Want to come home with me?

  Su San stared at An Yan with wide eyes, looking straight at her, he didn't want to miss any of her expressions, so he looked at her like that.

  But in An Yan's eyes, this expression meant that Su San was glaring at her. Was this a threat? His eyes were wide open, with an intimidating look as if he wanted to swallow her whole!

  My home is here.

  Upon hearing this, Su San felt a pang in his heart and suddenly some words slipped out of control.

  I am your husband, you should follow me after marriage, don't you understand?

  Alas, I've actually started talking about these old sayings with her.

  I don't understand!

  An's words were also very concise, and with two hard words, he was thrown back.

  She's in a bad mood now, Mid-Autumn Festival is supposed to be a time for family reunions, but she's here instead, wondering if her loved ones are doing okay? At this moment, she's already very annoyed with Su San, who'd better write quickly and leave, giving her some space, otherwise he'll find out what it means to have a savage girlfriend. No, wait, a savage wife.

  How can you not understand? This is "obeying one's husband" from the Three Obediences.

  Su San's eyes widened in surprise, but he saw that his opponent was nonchalant.

  What is San Cong, isn't it supposed to have Four Virtues?

  Of course, the three obediences and four virtues are the model for women.

  Su Shang said it with a straight face, almost without shaking his head.

  Looking at his old-fashioned, pedantic appearance, An's words didn't get along with him, and he said angrily: What three obediences and four virtues, you should start with yourself. Don't be ambiguous with me again, or I'll divorce you!

  Su San was shocked, Su San was stunned, Su San ran away in fright!

  Su San ran out of the room after being stunned for three seconds and stood alone in the yard, letting the cold wind blow on him before he came to his senses a little.

  Is this still a woman? The words she spoke were too outrageous! And what did she say in the end, she even said she wanted to divorce him... Throughout history, it has always been men divorcing women, when did women start divorcing men...

  Su San muttered to himself, his heart racing. He had previously thought that this woman was not ordinary, whether it was speaking or doing things, she was very different from ordinary women. Only now did he realize that her way of thinking and behavior were also vastly different from those of ordinary women. Moreover, her words and actions today were far too extreme and rebellious for a normal woman. Hmm, he must have a good talk with her.

  So Su San reorganized his troops and pushed open the door again, appearing in front of An Yan.

  An Wen waited until Su San went out, and also felt that her words just now might be too much, guessing that she would scare this stubborn man to death. Therefore, she thought that when Su San came in next time, it's best to say some soothing words. Just as she hadn't thought of what to say yet, Su San actually came in by himself.

  Huh?

  She looked up in doubt, her eyebrows and eyes were calm, the original annoyance and unease had all dissipated just now, and her heart was clear and peaceful.

  Su San straightened his face and looked very majestic, just like an ancient patriarch.

  Let's have a good talk.

  Su San's voice was serious and solemn.

  He raised his head and looked at me with a bewildered expression.
