"Grandma, are you looking for me?"
Minglan returned to Shou'an Hall from Wei Ruixuan, walked into the main hall, and asked Fu Fu.
Mrs. Sheng pointed to the side and said, "Sit down and talk."
Minglan came and sat down next to Mrs. Sheng. Seeing that Mrs. Sheng's expression was not right, she smiled and said, "Grandma, what's wrong with you? Who made you angry?"
The reason why Hualan's life is difficult is not only the external reasons such as Mrs. Yuan and Yuan's parents-in-law, but also the internal reasons of Yuan Wenshao.
But it doesn't fundamentally solve the problem.
Although the Li family is of low status, if Minglan was really wronged after marrying into the family, she would not say it out loud given her personality.
What's more, she couldn't just go to the house and make a scene over such a small matter.
Unlike the Yuan family, they made such a fuss when they were hired.
Li Nan felt that he was the head of the family and had to be calm, but the random glances in his eyes from time to time showed that he didn't want to be as calm as he appeared on the surface.
Mrs. Sheng was silent for a while and said: "Last time I made a verbal agreement, I actually kept it in mind. I wanted to see when his parents would come to visit. Now it seems that his parents attach great importance to you. This time it will be Let’s make it official, and we’ll choose a date to get married after you have your hair.”
Last time she said that she would decide verbally first. In addition to wanting to delay it first, she also wanted to see the attitude of Li An's parents.
Mrs. Liu looked at the crowded people and lively scenes on the street, just like Grandma Liu when she entered the Grand View Garden, she felt that her eyes were not enough.
In the evening, Li Nan and Mr. Liu got up and the family of three had dinner. Li An proposed to take them to watch the lanterns.
It sounds nice to be a housekeeper, but in fact, Hua Lan is asked to use the dowry to support the Yuan family.
In the past, people were often crammed into the second room, and Hualan was often asked to behave.
"Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. I'll call her over later about Hua Lan's matter and I'll talk to her. Let's talk about your matter first," Old Mrs. Sheng said.
"Not long ago, the brother of the Li family came to visit Changbai. He told Changbai that his parents came to Bianjing. If it is convenient in the past two days, he would come to visit. In my opinion, it should be a formal marriage proposal. What do you think? ?" Old Mrs. Sheng said.
Although the meaning of this sentence has been somewhat misinterpreted by later generations, it illustrates the importance that the ancients placed on heirs.
"Mom and dad, please stay in Bianjing for a while this time. Anyway, the big brother can take care of the family business." Li An said with a smile.
Yuan Wenshao was foolish and filial, and Mrs. Yuan did whatever she said. Hua Lan was wronged and had no one to talk to.

"What's my matter?" Minglan was stunned and said, "Grandma, what's wrong with me?"
"Where can I live? I have to go back to hug my grandson. If I stay here, I don't have any grandson to hug me." Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes at him when she heard this.
Mrs. Sheng asked, "Hua Lan has been wronged again when he came back this time, right?"
Mrs. Sheng sighed after hearing this and said: "Except for Lin Xiaoniang, I admire your father's ability to judge people. Yuan Wenshao is a good person, but he is too foolish and filial. It's my fault that he didn't do anything when we discussed the marriage. Ask more about the character of Yuan Wenshao’s parents. After all, marriage is not a matter of two people.”
"Mom, can you please stop saying these unlucky things during this big festival? Don't you like to hold grandchildren? When I get married and have ten or eight children, I will let you hold them all." Li An said with a smile.
Let alone in ancient times.
Naturally, they were thinking hard. It was true that they said they missed their grandson before, but what they were more afraid of was that if they stayed here, Li An would accompany them and delay Li An's studies.
The eldest daughter-in-law often provoked Hua Lan behind her back, and Hua Lan had no children, which also gave Mrs. Yuan an excuse to make things difficult for Hua Lan.
The smile on Minglan's face froze and she said, "Sister came back this time and asked us to go watch the lanterns together at night."
Minglan looked at Mrs. Sheng's wise eyes, sighed, and said: "During the Chinese New Year, many relatives came to the Yuan family, and they often talked about the children. My eldest sister felt uncomfortable, and she just found the opportunity to come back today. "
There are three kinds of unfilial piety, and no one is the greatest.
"The Lantern Festival in Bianjing is so lively. When I go back to Yangzhou, I will envy them to death."
Li An's last idea did make Hualan's situation a little better, and he lived a comfortable life for a few days.
In later generations, transportation was developed, and not everyone could go to the capital.
It has been more than four years since Hua Lan married into the Yuan family, but she has only given birth to one daughter so far.
When Hua Lan came to Shou'antang to pay his respects, she could see that Hua Lan was trying to force his smile.
Mrs. Yuan liked the eldest son and didn't care much about the second son. In addition, when she married Hua Lan, she was attracted by the rich dowry of the Sheng family.
……
Mrs. Sheng looked at Minglan's expression and didn't know what she meant. She felt quite uncomfortable.
"Bianjing is the capital of the country, so naturally it is not comparable to Bianjing."
Liu and Li Nan looked at each other, a little moved.
"You and that girl Hualan were raised by my side, and you still want to hide it from me?" Old Mrs. Sheng said with a glance.
The palms and backs were full of flesh. Li An left them when he was eleven or twelve years old, and he only went back to live for a month or two last year.
Minglan's face turned red, she lowered her head, and whispered: "My granddaughter has the final say."
Regardless of whether Li An's parents are because of the Sheng family or because of Minglan, at least they are taken seriously.
Mrs. Liu glared at him angrily, looked around, and asked doubtfully: "Didn't they say that there is a Wangbashan made of lamps during the Lantern Festival in Bianjing? Where is it?"
At that time, Mrs. Sheng knew that life would be difficult after Hualan married.
Hua Lan was even asked to take care of the house.
"Then there's no need to rush back. The provincial exam is in mid-March. You can just wait until I finish the exam and I'll go back with you then. I'll just stay at home for a while." Li An said.
The vast majority of ordinary civilians may have never been to their own county in their entire lives.
Although Yuan Wenshao is foolish and filial, aside from these things, he is considered to be an excellent man among men of this era.
Looking at Minglan's look, Mrs. Sheng knew that what she had just said was in vain. He said angrily: "Okay, stop sitting here stupidly, go call your eldest sister over and tell her that I have something to say to her."
"Don't try to persuade me. We are used to living in Yangzhou. Bianjing is such a big city and we are afraid of getting lost when we go out. When you get engaged, your mother and I will go back." Li Nan said.
"Then let's just wait until he takes the provincial examination and goes back." Li Nan said.
Mrs. Sheng was very satisfied with the reaction of Li An's parents.
But there was no room for regret at that time.
Minglan was so confused that she didn't hear clearly what Mrs. Sheng said.
Mrs. Yuan filled his room with so many people, and Yuan Wenshao did not neglect Hua Lan because of his concubine.
There is always a feeling that women are left out.
"Okay, it'll only take two or three months anyway. But then don't go back with us and go back and forth. You might as well stay in Bianjing and study hard. As long as you can be named on the gold list, your father and I will be dead. Happy." Liu said.
"Go, there are still ten or eight babies left, and you are now Piggy."
Li An: "..."
"A tortoise made of lamps?"
Li An was stunned for a moment, and quickly said in a dumbfounded voice: "Mom, you are talking about Aoshan, right?"
