Chapter 596 Reminder
Chapter 596 Reminder
Even if you wish time could go slower, the days still slip away little by little.
On the twelfth day of the lunar year, Su Qingwan had to prepare to return to Beijing.
These days, Yan Mingjue has been sending more letters via carrier pigeons, and it is obvious that things are no longer peaceful in the capital.
So, they decided to set off back to Beijing.
Thinking of the newly granted house, Su Qingwan asked Yan Mingjue what he meant.
"Just fix it as you wish."
As he said this, he glanced in the direction of Yan's mother.
"Just ask her what she thinks."
Su Qingwan nodded.
On the second day after returning to Beijing, Su Qingwan went to the new house with Yan's mother.
This house belonged to a previous prince and was well preserved. Moreover, it was at least three times larger than the one they lived in now.
The various decorations were very much in line with Su Qingwan's ideas, and what surprised Su Qingwan the most was that the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs had actually come to repair it in advance.
They ran into him when they went there.
The chief steward of the Imperial Household Department said that this was the emperor's intention and they had already arranged a courtyard.
Su Qingwan immediately understood what Emperor Xuanwu meant. She took Yan's mother to the side courtyard. After entering, she raised her eyebrows.
Everything inside is exquisite and elegant, which is what Yan's mother likes.
Needless to say, you know who this yard is for.
Mother Yan was also stunned for a moment, then she regained her composure.
"I'll go check out the other yards."
After saying that, Yan's mother left. It was obvious that she was not going to live in this courtyard.
The steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs looked unhappy, but Su Qingwan did not get involved in the matter.
She followed him to other courtyards.
Except for the courtyard just mentioned, the other courtyards have not been decorated yet. Su Qingwan nodded with satisfaction and called the steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, saying that they would decorate the rest themselves.
The steward had no choice but to go back first.
When no one was around, Su Qingwan looked at Yan's mother and asked:
"You really don't like that yard?"
Yan's mother didn't say anything.
Of course she liked it. Everything in there was decorated according to her preferences. How could she not like it?
Thinking that the man still remembered her hobbies after all these years, it would be a lie to say that she was not touched. However, thinking about the hardships she had endured over the years, she didn't think it was a big deal.
She did not answer Su Qingwan's words, but changed the subject.
"I received a letter from Jiangnan, and Xunrui also wanted to see me several times."
Yan Qingxue also knew that she was not strong-willed and could be easily persuaded, so she seldom went out during this period. When the doorman brought Yan Xunrui's invitation, she asked the maid to put it away and pretended she didn't see it.
However, she couldn't pretend she hadn't seen the letter from Old Lady Yan from Jiangnan this time.
"Your grandmother is coming to the capital."
She told Su Qingwan about this so that she could prepare in advance.
Su Qingwan chuckled when she heard this. The people in the Yan family were really interesting.
Back then, they regarded Yan's mother and Yan Mingjue as the shame of the family, especially Yan Mingjue. They wished to get rid of him as soon as possible. Now they have the nerve to try to get close to him again. They are really shameless.
Suppressing the disgust in her heart, she looked at Yan's mother.
"What do you think?"
This time, Old Madam Yan must have come for the Yan family.
Mother Yan hesitated for a moment and said:
"She is my mother after all."
Su Qingwan was not surprised by this answer, because Yan's mother was just that kind of person.
She said calmly:
"In that case, then you should consider whether to move here."
Su Qingwan said this and took people to see other courtyards. She also needed to see how to decorate these courtyards, so she didn't have time to waste on this one.
Mother Yan was stunned for a moment, and it took her a while to realize what Su Qingwan meant.
So, this means that if she continues to listen to her mother, she will not be able to see her two grandchildren anytime in the future?
