The first year of Tongkang, February 16th.

Li Qiniang took Yan Xuehuai and finally returned to the Yan family's house in Xinjing.

A year ago, Yan Zhaoshi, the second master of Yan, sent his nephew Yan Jingxiu to Shuren Academy to study. During this period, he wrote a letter and said that there is a good house in Pingcheng, so it is better to buy property.

Li Qiniang asked the pot to send 500 taels of silver notes from all over the world and bought the house in Luoguxiang.

No one expected that this place would now become the residence of the Yan family.

In the afternoon of early spring, the sun was bright and tender buds emerged in the pomegranate tree in the yard. A few birds fell on the branches. They were not until someone approached and flew away with their wings.

The three masters of the Yan family and the eldest son of the eldest son Yan Jingxiu were all not at home, saying that they were following a group of fellow villagers who came to Beijing to welcome the Duke of Ding into the city.

The one who received Hao Chong was Yan Jingguang, the eldest son of the eldest son. The only one who saw was a furry child of fifteen or sixteen. Hao Chong didn't even drink tea, so he gave a few words and said goodbye.

Although Hao Chong was not wearing armor, his murderous aura was still terrifying.

This was the first time Yan Jingguang saw a military general. After a long time of regaining consciousness, he led Li Qiniang and Yan Xuehuai into the second hospital.

Through the opened curtain, Old Mrs. Guo looked at the embarrassed second daughter-in-law and granddaughter, and waved her hand with disgust: "Go and wash it and come over, it smells bad, who is disgusting?"

The eldest uncle Sun's brows moved, and the war was in chaos. She thought the mother and daughter were dead on the road, otherwise she would not have allowed her daughter and niece to make noise in order to compete for Eryato's clothes and jewelry.

Li Qiniang is easy to control, but that girl Yan Xuehuai is not a good person.

Sun quickly squeezed out a smile and said to smooth things over: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back."

He said to the third aunt Zeng again: "Third brother and sister, you take the second brother and sister to recognize the house, and I will take the second girl to wash. Look, this pitiful child is a very beautiful child before. It took me so long before I saw him, but I lost a lot of weight."

Zeng agreed and led Li Qiniang forward. Li Qiniang was a little worried and turned around to give some advice, but saw that her daughter had already followed Sun down the porch and covered the room back.

Zeng laughed dryly and said without saying a word: "Once you come out, Erya's temperament is much more obedient."

Yan Xuehuai didn't become obedient, but she didn't think much about it.

Since the fever subsided, her mind was in a daze, almost the same as before her car accident in her previous life. It was like a mess. When she thought of a little clue, she became blurred and confused...

It took her three days to gradually adapt to her current situation. Until she entered the Yan Mansion and saw the strange and familiar faces of the Yan family, the vague things in her mind finally became clear.

She tried hard to capture the thoughts in her mind, and unconsciously followed her aunt Sun to the back room, without noticing where Li Qiniang was taken.

Sun said a few words to her, and when she saw her insanity, she couldn't help but mutter in her heart that Erya had a sickness, could it be that she had burned her brain?

Thinking of this, Sun secretly became happy. Thank God, if the second girl was stupid, that would be a good thing. Why didn't this dead girl die outside with her mother?

The newly bought little girl brought hot water, and Sun went to change her clothes. Seeing that Yan Xuehuai was still silent, Sun was too lazy to pay attention to her, so she put down her things and went to the yard to see Mrs. Guo.

She hadn't taken a shower for almost two months. Yan Xuehuai took a while to take a shower. She sat in the bathtub, tidying up the memories that kept popping up in her mind while washing.

Yan Xuehuai remembered that among the Yan family, the ones Mrs. Guo disliked the most were Li Qiniang and her.

Li Qiniang's mother's family has three restaurants. Although she is the adopted daughter of the family, Dad Li has never treated her badly and loves her very much.

The widowed mother of the Yan family is in charge of the family and has three sons. Although she is not as barely apart, the whole family is only dependent on digging food from the soil and can't make a few taels of silver all year round.

The second son Yan Zhaoshi is a handsome talent and was admitted to Tongsheng as a teenager. The Li family is well-off. Dad Li thinks this young man has a future. When he married his daughter to the Yan family, he married a restaurant, a shop in the old capital, and a thousand taels of silver.

Yan Zhaoshi had no worries, passed the scholar and passed the juren again.

A juren can be exempted from 200 acres of land, but the Yan family has only 5 acres of land. The landlords from ten miles and eight villages can be exempted from corvee labor and taxes. Of course, this is not a waste of help. The whole year, there are also a lot of investments.

Coupled with Li Qiniang's dowry, the Yan family has changed from being poor and deserted back then to being well-off now.

Yan Zhaoshi failed the exam and failed, but his family did not have to worry about food and drink. He could continue to study and continue to take the exam.

After Li Qiniang gave birth to Yan Xuehuai, she no longer felt happy. At first, although Mrs. Guo criticized her, she didn't dare to do anything. After all, Dad Li and Uncle Li were not easy to meet.

When Yan Xuehuai was seven years old, Dad Li died of illness. Uncle Li helped the spirit back home. On the way back, he met a water bandit, and he could not see anyone but death or corpse.

Since then, Mrs. Guo has no scruples and forced Li Qiniang to buy four girls from Yan Zhaoshi.

It’s strange that these four families have either miscarriage or have finally been born for a few hours.

After a series of accidents in the room, Mrs. Guo believed that her grandchildren who had not survived were all killed by Li Qiniang.

Old Mrs. Guo scolded Li Qiniang as a poisonous woman in front of Yan Zhaoshi every day. After a while, Yan Zhaoshi began to suspect that those things were done by Li Qiniang.

The Yan family often talks about Li Qiniang on weekdays. Yan Xuehuai grew up gradually. For Li Qiniang, she often contradicted Mrs. Guo and her aunt Sun, and she couldn't get along well with her two sisters. Therefore, long before the escape, Li Qiniang and Yan Xuehuai were thorns in the family's side.

This time, the Tonglian named Xiuzhu finally became pregnant again. Old Mrs. Guo and Yan Zhaoshi strictly guarded the mother and daughter, for fear that they would give Xiuzhu something to eat and get a corpse and two lives.

When the imperial court moved the capital, overnight, the official roads were filled with officials who rushed north to escape. Even if they were not officials, who had some family background, they would also take gold, silver and soft materials to escape to Xinjing, and the Yan family was also among them.

Halfway through the way, Yan Xue was sick, and Mrs. Guo asked her to keep the mother and daughter, but Yan Zhaoshi agreed without saying a word.

The one who stayed with them and their daughter was originally a servant named Guozi, who was the grandson of Caiwang, the old servant of Niang Niang Niang. Unexpectedly, when Guozi was walking on the road, Guozi was cooking, and an army happened to pass by, and Guozi was caught.

Li Qiniang went to chase her and was pushed to the ground...

Thinking of the pot, Yan Xuehuai became confused again. Li Qiniang in her memory seemed very weak, which was different from what she saw.

The Li Qiniang she saw was able to kill people by picking up a kitchen knife, and she was not afraid of seeing Duke Ding.

By the way, where was Li Qiniang taken?

It would be fine if he hadn't remembered these past events, but now that Yan Xuehuai has gathered these remaining memories, he must not be careless.

She came out of the bathtub, wiped her hair casually, shook the clothes she had given to her by her uncle Sun. It was not her clothes, but like the old clothes of her cousin Yan Xuejiao. Even the hollow silver hairpin placed on the clothes should be Yan Xuejiao's old things.

Yan Xuejiao was already in the hair last year. Yan Xuehuai was two years younger than her, but taller than her. The clothes were a little shorter on her body.

Li Qiniang is well-off and the clothes she makes for her daughter are all good materials. She asked the embroiderers in the city to do it carefully. Yan Xuejiao's clothes are far worse than hers, both in terms of materials and workmanship.

Although the mother and daughter were left halfway, the luggage of the cage was brought to Beijing with the Yan family. Now they did not take her own clothes, but gave her Yan Xuejiao's old clothes. Yan Xuehuai could guess without thinking that her clothes would be taken away by her cousin Yan Xuejiao and her cousin Yan Xueping. If she asked, they would definitely say that her luggage was lost when she fled on the road.

If it were Yan Xuehuai in the past, they would definitely rush over to fight now, and then the two would cry and complain to Old Lady Guo. Old Lady Guo would scold Yan Xuehuai, and maybe even curse Li Qiniang together.

No matter how the women in this family squeezed their mother and daughter, Yan Zhaoshi would not care.

He is a scholar, and scholars don’t have to pay attention to these common things.

Yan Xuehuai smiled, changed into her old clothes, casually tied her half-dry hair with a hairpin, and walked out of the back cover room.

Clothes are not important, she wants to find Li Qiniang first.

She originally thought of asking Mrs. Guo about the main room, but before she could reach the main room, she saw a teenage maid running over in panic.

The Yan family originally had two mothers and two maids, but they were all not dead. This time they did not follow the north to escape. Apart from Guozi, there were only two servants following them all the way.

Yan Xuehuai had never seen this little maid. I think it was bought by the Yan family after they arrived in Xinjing.

Seeing that there was no one around, Yan Xuehuai grabbed the little maid and asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

However, the little maid knew Yan Xuehuai. This is the second girl who just arrived home today.

The little maid subconsciously pointed to the direction of the hanging flower door: "Second wife, second wife..."

Yan Xuehuai's face changed suddenly. She let go of the little maid's hand and ran towards the hanging flower gate.

Two children stood inside the hanging flower door, with their little hands stomping the door frame and stretched their heads to look out.

Yan Xuehuai recognized that these were her two cousins, Yan Jinglong, the third-bedroom, and Yan Jingwen, the eldest-bedroom.

Seeing Yan Xuehuai suddenly appear, the two children were all stunned. Yan Jinglong was more sensible than Yan Jingwen. He reached out to stop Yan Xuehuai and said, "You are not allowed to go there."

Yan Xuehuai didn't know what happened, so the child didn't let her go. Yan Xuehuai said in her heart that something must have happened to Li Qiniang!

She pushed Yan Jinglong away and ran out of the hanging flower door.

After all, Yan Jinglong was just an eight-year-old child and was pushed to sit on the ground. He got up from the ground and went to chase Yan Xuehuai. Five-year-old Yan Jingwen didn't know what the third brother and second sister were doing, so he followed Yan Jinglong and chased him out.

After leaving the hanging flower door, three downed rooms were rolling in front of me. The third aunt Zeng stood at one of the doors, bent down and looked into the crack of the door.
