There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 70
[Chapter 70, Don’t Make Trouble But Don’t Be Afraid of Trouble]
“Welcome, Master Zhizhou!” As soon as
Yan Zhigao and his party arrived at the gate of Linyi County, the county magistrate led the people from the county government to welcome them up, followed by a large group of gentry and wealthy households , all laughing like a festival.
“Hmph!” In the
carriage, Yan Wenkai snorted coldly.
Yan Wenxiu glared at him immediately: “How many times have I said that you should pay attention to your words and deeds when you are outside. We can’t help Dad now, but we can’t make trouble for him.”
“Although Dad has been promoted now, the number of people staring at him has also increased. Now, the competition in the officialdom is fierce, and our Yan family’s foundation is weak, so we should be more cautious and not offend others easily.”
Yan Wenkai was dissatisfied, but he still snorted: “Understood.” Daohua
heard the conversation between the two, Glancing again at the people who congratulated the cheap dad, put down the car curtain, went to Yan Wenkai’s side, and said in a low voice: “Fourth brother, who messed with you?
” : “Among the people outside who came to congratulate father is the head of the Sun family. You may not know about the Sun family. The grandparents have lived in Linyi County for generations, so they can be regarded as a long-established family in Linyi County.”
“Dad just came here before .” When Bian took office, the Sun family gave my father an embarrassment. Later in the county school, I saw the grandson of the head of the Sun family bullying other students, so I went to stop him. As a result, when I got angry, I fought with them.”
” At that time, my father was going to build water conservancy in the county and needed the support of the Sun family, so in the end he took me to the Sun family to apologize.”
“Originally, I beat someone up, and it’s okay to apologize, but my father came to the door in person. The Sun family actually left father alone, and made us wait for more than two hours before the Patriarch of the Sun family came forward to meet.”
“Big sister, tell me, is the Sun family angry?”
Daohua nodded seriously. Nodded: “Not only is it irritating, but also very arrogant.” Letting the head of a county wait, this Sun family is not enough to take people seriously.
Seeing that Daohua agreed with his point of view, Yan Wenkai felt much more comfortable, glanced outside the carriage, and said with disgust: “Now that my father has been promoted, the Patriarch of the Sun family has come over like a pug. Boring.”
“Are you talking more and more vigorously?” Yan Wenxiu said suddenly, he knew that the fourth brother could not hold back his words, so he didn’t stop him just now, but this guy didn’t know what restraint was, how could he Stop it, he can talk forever.
Yan Wenkai pursed his lips, turned his head, and ignored Yan Wenxiu.
Daohua said at this moment: “Brother, I think the fourth brother is right, people like the Sun family are really annoying.”
Yan Wenxiu knew this would happen, and said helplessly: “We just need to know some things, there is no need to say it Let’s go.”
Daohua: “You have to vent your emotions. If you hold them in your heart all the time, it will be very uncomfortable. Besides, it’s not that the fourth brother doesn’t know how to measure. Isn’t he just talking in front of us?”
Hearing this, Yan Wenkai He nodded immediately.
He didn’t say it outside, so he can’t talk to his family?
Daohua smiled, and continued: “I think we don’t cause trouble but we can’t be afraid of it. If we just give in, we won’t talk about it, and it will encourage unhealthy tendencies.
” You have to show the demeanor of Mr. Zhizhou, don’t bully the weak, but you can’t be bullied by others.”
She felt that her elder brother was a little too cautious.
This is not bad, but if a person’s waist is bent too much, it may not be able to straighten up in the future.
Yan Wenkai nodded again and again: “Yes, I don’t bully others, but I can’t be bullied by others.”
Yan Wenxiu’s heart was shaken, and he reflected on his behavior and handling things. He seemed a little timid and scrupulous, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, and didn’t say more.
Outside, Yan Zhigao also finished greeting with the others, got into the carriage, and prepared to go back to the county office.
The backyard of the county government.
Mrs. Li, who received the news in advance, had already waited at the gate of the backyard with the people from the second room and the third room. Even Mrs. Yan insisted on waiting here.
It didn’t take long for everyone to see Yan Zhigao striding from the front yard, followed by Yan Wenxiu and a few younger ones.
“Son pays respects to mother, I have made mother worry!”
Yan Zhigao immediately knelt down to Mrs. Yan as soon as he came back.
Old Madam Yan quickly pulled Yan Zhigao up and grabbed his hand, her expression was very excited, her eyes were red and her lips were trembling.
Seeing that the old lady was too excited to speak, Daohua ran over immediately. The old man was most afraid of being overjoyed and sad, and he couldn’t get into trouble because he was too happy.
With a ‘bang’, Daohua hugged the old lady: “Grandma, why did you only see my father and not me? Fortunately, I still miss you every day!”
Interrupted by Daohua, Yan The old lady’s blood that suddenly surged to her head cooled down, and her expression slowly regained her composure. She nodded her head and said, “Even if the old lady forgets anyone, she can’t forget you, a debt collector!”
Daohua stared, Pretending to be angry: “What debt collector, he is obviously a pistachio!”
Old Madam Yan smiled: “Yes, yes, you are a pistachio!” After finishing speaking, she pulled Daohua away from her body, looked her up and down, Then he said dissatisfiedly, “Why did you lose weight? Didn’t you eat well outside?”
Daohua nodded, and said pitifully, “Isn’t it? It’s already afternoon, and we haven’t had lunch yet.”
Hearing this, Yan The old lady didn’t care about Yan Zhigao, she pulled up Daohua and walked towards Songheyuan: “Aren’t you a very capable girl, why can’t you even get food? You are still growing and full. If you are hungry after a meal, what will you do if you become a dwarf in the future? Come on, grandma will go down for you.”
“Okay, I like to eat noodles made by grandma.”
Seeing the old and the young just throwing everyone away like this As he went, the others present all looked at each other in blank dismay.
Yan Wenkai looked at his elder brother, and said sympathetically, “Brother, your eldest grandson is not as good as your eldest granddaughter with your grandmother!”
Yan Wenxiu stretched out his hand and gave Yan Wenkai a chestnut: “If you are capable, you will still be jealous of your own sister! “Well, he was also a little sour, but seeing his father being abandoned by his grandmother also made him feel much better.
Mrs. Li walked up to Yan Zhigao who was stunned, and said with a smile: “Since receiving Wen Xiu’s letter, mother has been silent all the time. Now that the master is back, it can be regarded as returning to normal.”
Yan Zhigao came back to his senses , Looking at Mrs. Li: “Thank you Madam.” How could he not feel the excitement of the old lady, he was really afraid of something like the old lady just now, fortunately there is the eldest daughter.
After the death of their father, they still suffered a lot in their hometown. He knew that all these years, the old lady had been holding back a sigh of relief in her heart. Say.
Now that he was promoted to rank five magistrate, the old lady got her wish, and the breath in her heart was released when she saw him, and she was a little too excited.
Mrs. Li: “Master works hard outside. What do I have to work hard for? I’m tired. Master come back to the yard with me to wash up.”
Yan Zhigao nodded, and greeted the second and third wards, He went back to the main courtyard with Mrs. Li.
After the crowd, Aunt Lin saw that Yan Zhigao didn’t look in the direction of their mother and son, she felt very uncomfortable.
