Seeing that he really didn't seem to recognize her, Chu Yunli just said, "Hurry up and recover from your injuries and leave."
After working for a long time, I took a nap after returning home.
The next day, when Chu Yunli had just stood up, Wenyu brought water in for her to wash up, and whispered, "Now people are saying outside that the Nie family made Miss Yan wait for three years, and now they have broken the marriage, making Miss Yan sad.
Unfaithful and ruthless."
Chu Yunli sneered, "Miss Yan is sad, have they seen it?"
Yan Yuxi likes to do this kind of thing the most. When she starts to cry, everyone will feel how wronged she has been.
"Then who knows?" Wenyu was also quite aggrieved. After Yan Yuxi married in, she didn't take Nie Muyun seriously, let alone servants like them.
"You don't need to tell brother these things." Chu Yunli ordered. No one would believe this rumor without anyone's guidance. They say the Nie family is ruthless, so why not mention Yan Yuxi's marriage a few months ago?
The marriage has not been consummated yet?
With such a great beauty, it’s impossible for Nie Munan to be unwilling, right?
The heaviest whip could not be used. In fact, it was a skin injury. Chu Yunli had modified the medicine. The next morning, the wound had scabbed.
Just after seeing the two of them, the housekeeper outside came to report that Mrs. Chen's wife had arrived.
Compared to the thin Nie family, the Chen family has over a hundred people in total. Now the head of the family is Nie Munan's uncle, and Chen Tu, who broke her leg in the first place, is his concubine.
Chu Yunli went to the front yard to meet people in person. The head of the Chen family took good care of the brothers and sisters, but Mrs. Chen was just average to them. The reason why she came here was probably because she heard about what happened yesterday.
"Mu Yun, you two are not children anymore, why are you still so willful?" Mrs. Chen is nearly forty years old this year. She is wealthy and has exquisite makeup on her face. However, deep wrinkles can still be seen at the end of her eyes and on her chin.
Acerbic, the whole person looks a bit sharp and mean.
She started scolding her as soon as she entered the door, "How can you be so casual about marriage? The Yan family's marriage was decided when your parents were still here. If they know that you are getting married and have canceled it, I'm afraid it will be a big deal in the future."
We can't live in peace down there. Now everyone outside is saying that the Nie family is wrong. From my perspective, it's you who are also wrong!"
Chu Yunli asked someone to bring tea, "What do you want to say?"
Mrs. Chen choked, and when she saw the coldness in her eyebrows, she frowned, "Do you think I am willing to take care of you? If your uncle hadn't been worried, I wouldn't have made this trip."
"Yes." Chu Yunli agreed.
She also made Mrs. Chen so angry that she said husband and wife were one. She was just saying polite words. No matter who was worried, as the aunt came to the door, shouldn't she be treated politely?
She endured it and asked, "How is your brother's injury?"
If she had asked this question first when she entered the house, Chu Yunli would not have been so cold towards her. She would have criticized her without caring about the injury. At most, it was just about saving face. Chu Yunli said casually, "It's okay, aunt, don't worry.
.”
Mrs. Chen sighed, "Look, how grand the Yan family is. The girl who was hurt like this was only slightly injured. If it were another family, she would have deserved to be beaten to death."
Chu Yunli rolled her eyes secretly. If the last whip came yesterday, it wouldn't be so simple. She didn't bother to explain, "Auntie, are you going to see your brother?"
Mrs. Chen nodded, "I came here specially, so of course I wanted to see it."
Chu Yunli took her straight to Nie Munan's yard.
Nie Munan had just finished breakfast when they were greeted by the two of them. He lay on the couch without getting up and said apologetically, "Auntie, it's not convenient for me, don't blame me."
Mrs. Chen waved her hand and asked, "Why are you talking about this?"
Facing Nie Munan, she smiled and said, "How is the injury? Does it hurt?"
"It hurts a little, but it's getting better." Nie Munan also answered casually.
Mrs. Chen sighed, "It's too willful. It's not good if there is no elders in the family. You said that I am a good girl, how can you reconcile? With such a huge family property, there is no mistress to treat people, and Mu Yun is not sensible, you can't
Tired?"
Nie Munan didn't answer and just let her talk. She changed the topic and said, "Your fourth cousin is fifteen this year. I'm helping her find a marriage recently. Otherwise, our two families will be more closely related to each other?"
Nie Munan was surprised, "Is this uncle's idea?"
"Ahem, I think it's quite appropriate." Mrs. Chen felt a little uncomfortable for a moment. In fact, she mentioned it last night, but the head of the Chen family immediately rejected it.
Does she think it's appropriate?
That means my uncle didn't mean it that way.
Nie Munan said directly, "The situation between me and Miss Yan has made both of us uncomfortable. We have no intention of marrying again for the time being."
There was a bit of a silence after that. Chu Yunli didn't say anything. It didn't matter what Mrs. Chen thought. If she didn't like it, it would be fine not to come to her in the future.
The Chen family was considered wealthy in Tongcheng. No matter where Mrs. Chen went, there was no shortage of people who praised her. After the silence, she quickly stood up and left.
The days that followed were quite peaceful, and outsiders' discussions about the Nie family gradually faded away as the Nie family received no response. At this time, news came out from the Yan family that on the third day of September, Yan Lei invited all the unmarried men in Tongcheng to a banquet.
I want to choose another marriage for my sister.
As soon as the news came out, it spread throughout the streets and alleys of Tongcheng, and many people wanted to get the Yan family's post.
When Chu Yunli heard the news, she was drinking porridge and almost spit out, "Why is it like the emperor choosing his concubine?"
Nie Munan, who was opposite her, glared at her and felt that she was right to say so.
There have been flower viewing parties like this in Tongcheng before. Most of them were held by noble families to select suitable daughters-in-law. Originally, the girl was raised in a boudoir. It was too unreliable to choose a daughter-in-law based on rumors. Why?
You should also see it with your own eyes.
But when choosing a son-in-law, you have to ask around a lot, and then you meet the person, and that's pretty much it.
Chu Yunli smiled half-heartedly, "Beauties who are admired by everyone are always different. Do you have any regrets, brother?"
Nie Munan didn't take it seriously, "Actually, women are all the same in my eyes. No matter how beautiful she is, if I give her ten years, she won't age the same. My father and mother have been in love for many years, and what father likes is not my mother's beauty."
"Mu Yun." He suddenly called.
He usually calls his sister, but when he suddenly called her by name, he did so in an extremely serious manner. It was obvious that he had something important to talk about.
"I want to get engaged." Nie Munan looked at her, "My uncle has no idea at the moment, but if my aunt persuades me a few more times, there is no guarantee that he will not change his mind. I don't want to marry a cousin from the Chen family. But my uncle is very good to us.
If he proposes to get married, we can't refuse, so I want to finalize the marriage before that."
Chu Yunli was dumbfounded, "Who will you choose?" and added, "I still hope that you can be satisfied and choose the one you really like."
Nie Munan pondered for a moment and said, "There are two candidates. One is the third daughter of the Wu family. She has the best relationship with you. If you marry her, you two will definitely get along well."
The Wu family is just an ordinary wealthy businessman who has only grown up in the past ten years. It is difficult to say how sincere the Wu family's girl is to Nie Muyun. Knowing that Nie Munan was afraid of the conflicts between her sisters and sister-in-law before, Chu Yunli asked with a smile,
"Where's the other one?"
"The daughter of the Xu family is seventeen this year and has not yet decided to get married." Nie Munan was a little surprised. "She once threatened that she would not marry anyone but me."
Chu Yunli reminded him, "The head of the Nie family must be able to take action, so that he can silence his aunt." The Wu family member definitely couldn't do it.
Regarding this, Nie Munan agreed, "Then the girl from the Xu family, she is the eldest daughter. It is said that she also learned to keep accounts from her father, and she also has several shops under her name. She can be a housewife, but she can be a sister-in-law..."
Chu Yunli hurriedly answered, "As long as she is not as arrogant and upright as that first beauty, I should be able to get along well with her." She was also really afraid that Nie Munan would really marry a girl from the Wu family, who was a good friend with the girl from the Wu family.
Nie Muyun, that's not her.
She thought about it and realized that the girl from the Wu family in her memory was actually a rough version of Yan Yuxi.
Not to mention, Yan Yuxi has the reputation of being the most beautiful woman, and there are many girls in the city who deliberately imitate her in dressing up and even speaking. It is quite normal for the Wu family girls to imitate her style.
On the first day of the Yan family's flower viewing party, Nie Munan personally took the matchmaker to the Xu family and settled the marriage.
"I heard you want to see me?" Chu Yunli came in and looked at the handsome man sitting at the table holding a book. His face was still a little pale and he was still ill.
Fang Shaoan smiled slightly and said, "I have recovered from my injuries and want to say goodbye to you in person."
Then, he left.
In the past, he would say that seeing her was familiar, but this time he never mentioned it from beginning to end. He didn't know whether he remembered it but didn't say it, or didn't think of it at all.
The two of them didn't see each other much these days, and Nie Munan, who was a little nervous at first, didn't care much about it. Now that he saw the person leaving, he felt more relieved.
After the two patients at home recovered from their injuries, Chu Yunli began to go out again. Moreover, she told Nie Munan that she wanted to open a medical clinic and she wanted to study medicine.
Nie Munan didn't care about his sister's sudden interest in medicine. In his eyes, his sister was good at anything she did.
This time while he was recuperating, she made the decision for many things in the house. In the past, Nie Munan took care of everything at home and abroad, but now he didn't ask him about many things in the house. He felt relaxed at the same time, a little relieved, but also a little disappointed. His sister had grown up.
, maybe I won’t be able to stay for long.
In fact, if you have enough money on hand, it is very simple to open a medical clinic. All you need to do is hire a doctor and prepare all the medicinal materials.
Chu Yunli was sitting on the third floor of the restaurant, watching the opening of the medical clinic below. She was in a good mood. Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside, "Is it sister Nie?"
A cheerful young woman came through the door. After Wenyu looked at her eyes, she stepped over and opened the door.
The woman at the door was dressed in light green clothes, had a gentle smile, and beautiful eyebrows. She was accompanied by a maid and walked in with a smile. "You are here uninvited, sister, don't be angry."
The girl in front of me does exist in my memory. It is Xu Leyuan who just made a marriage arrangement with Nie Munan.
My future sister-in-law comes to visit?
Chu Yunli smiled slightly and said, "Hello, Sister Xu."
Xu Leyuan's eyes lit up, "I thought you didn't remember me?"
"That won't happen." Chu Yunli smiled and stretched out his hand, gesturing for her to sit down, and then told Wenyu to go get two more plates of snacks before saying, "Even if I wasn't familiar with him before, I asked my brother specifically recently."
Xu Leyuan's face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, "What did he say about me?"
Looking at her blushing face, Chu Yunli smiled slightly. It seemed that the rumors that she would not marry anyone who was not her husband should be true.
