Chapter 59
After Mrs. Gu left that day, Mrs. Qi became ill. At first, Qi Tanying thought her mother had a cold, but after the doctor diagnosed her, she said it was caused by heart disease.

What did the Second Mrs. Gu tell her?It's not that Qi Tanying didn't ask, but Mrs. Qi never mentioned it.

Fortunately, with the approach of the new year, Mrs. Qi's body has improved, and her spirit has improved a lot.Seeing her mother recovering, Qi Tanying finally felt relieved.

The winter in Kyoto is colder than Wuzhou, and the taste of the new year is stronger than Wuzhou.At the beginning of the new year, no matter the dignitaries or ordinary people, they all forget the severe winter and trivial troubles, and enjoy the excitement of the new year amidst the sound of firecrackers to get rid of the old and usher in the new.

In previous years in the old house in Wuzhou, Mrs. Qi, mother and son all stayed with the clan to watch the new year.

This year is different from the past. Mrs. Qi suffered from an illness a few years ago and couldn't stay up late. Qi Tanying and Qi Yukun sister and brother watched for a while and then went to sleep.

As soon as Qi Tanying returned to her room and lay down, she heard a knocking sound outside the window, three long and one short.Ting Lan pushed open the window and looked. It was pitch black and there was nothing outside the window.

"It's strange." She muttered a few words, and then closed the window.

Qi Tanying glanced at Ting Lan, "You don't need to watch the night tonight, go back to your room and sleep."

Ting Lan refused.

Qi Tanying frowned: "Why, you don't even listen to me?"

Just as Ting Lan was about to speak, she heard Qi Tanying say, "Only once today."

Seeing that her girl's mind has been made up, Ting Lan no longer insists.After Ting Lan left, three long and one short knocking sounds sounded again, Qi Tanying walked slowly to the window, and asked in a low voice, "Is that you?"

"it's me."

When a familiar voice came, Qi Tanying's heart suddenly thumped wildly. It was late at night and the dew was heavy. Why did he come to Qi's house?
At this time, the person outside said again: "A Tan, let me in quickly, it's too cold outside."

Qi Tanying hesitated for a moment, but opened the window anyway.

Seeing this, Yan Li leaned on the window frame with one hand and turned into the house. The cold air on his body was instantly wrapped by the warmth of the house, and the blood in his body also thawed.

The tea was still warm on the stove outside, Qi Tanying poured him a cup of hot tea, Yan Li drank it down in one gulp, "It's really warm."

Qi Tanying stared at him without blinking, "At this time, you should stay with your aunt to watch the new year."

Yan Li laughed when he heard this, "Our family doesn't have such rules, my mother is not in good health, so she went to bed early."

In the past, he would drink and chat with his brothers and friends. This year, halfway through drinking, he suddenly remembered that he was engaged and had a fiancée, so he thought that this time is different from the past, and that he should accompany her to welcome the new year together. .

After hearing him explain the reason, Qi Tanying took a closer look and smelled a faint smell of alcohol.

Just as she was about to speak, she raised her eyes and saw Yan Li staring at her with burning eyes. She quickly turned her face away, but felt a little flustered.

At this time Yan Li got up and walked towards her, Qi Tanying's heart beat like a drum, and she lightly reprimanded, "Sit back."

Yan Li stopped, "A Tan, I"

Qi Tanying took this opportunity to move to the side of the bed, distanced himself from him, "Master Yan, please respect yourself."

These words cleared Yan Li's drowsy mind a lot, he smiled at her, "Don't be afraid, I'll just come if I don't." Slowly retreated to the table and sat down.

Qi Tanying wanted to say that she was not afraid of him, it was just that they were not married yet, and it was out of courtesy for her to let him in. At this time, she should keep a certain distance from him.

After several months of getting along, she also learned a lot about him.Although he could not be called a gentleman, he was definitely not Meng Lang's man.She understood that he just wanted to get close to her, but she couldn't let him do it arbitrarily.

When the affection is deep and sweet, the etiquette is disregarded. If the affection fades away, if the old account is turned over, what face will there be?

Of course, this is just her worst guess.Combined with Yan Li's personality, she is more willing to believe that he will not do anything to hurt her.

Yan Li didn't know that his fiancée was thinking so much, "A Tan, I just want to watch the New Year with you."

He didn't know what was wrong with him, he was still like a boy in his old age, when he left the tavern, he had only one thought in his mind, and that was to see her as soon as possible.

After climbing over the wall and going straight to her room, the password was the one they used when they went to Wuzhou, but she still remembered it.

The candlelight is dim, looking at the beauty under the lamp, it is charming and touching.

Yan Li felt that he was a little drunk, and couldn't help but praise: "A Tan, you are so pretty!"

Qi Tanying was amused by him. In her eyes, he has always been calm, self-possessed and resolute. Today's foolish appearance really makes people laugh.

She poured him a cup of tea and handed it to him, "Drink it and go home."

Yan Li looked up at her, and when he took the teacup, he held her hand, and the delicate and smooth touch made his heart flutter.Qi Tanying subconsciously wanted to break free, but she couldn't match his strength.

"Let go."

"Don't let it go."

"you"

The two were in a stalemate, when there was a sound of pushing the door outside, Qi Tanying quickly withdrew her hand, and hurriedly pushed Yan Li behind the screen to hide.

"Hey, why is the girl up?" It was Ting Lan who came, and she was worried that no one was keeping watch and her girl could not sleep well after returning to the house, so she came over quietly to have a look.

Qi Tanying raised her tea cup at her, pretending to be nonchalant and said, "I'm a little thirsty."

Ting Lan has no doubts about him.

Qi Tanying was afraid that Ting Lan would find Yan Li hiding behind the screen, so she urged Ting Lan to go back to sleep quickly.But Ting Lan said: "Miss, I'd better stay with you as a servant."

Qi Tanying immediately said: "No need."

Well, seeing that her girl really didn't need to keep vigil by herself, Ting Lan had no choice but to back out.

After Ting Lan left, Qi Tanying let out a sigh of relief.

Yan Li came out from behind the screen, and suddenly said, "After we get married, we don't need maids to keep watch at night."

Qi Tanying's face turned hot when she heard the words, and she glared at him, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

What Yan Li thought in his heart was that if the maid stayed in the house, the husband and wife would not even be able to talk privately.

At this moment, he made up his mind that no matter how other people's families were organized, anyway, after he and A Tan got married, he would never keep a maid to keep watch at night.

This night, Yan Li stayed in Qi Tanying's boudoir until the second watch before leaving. In fact, he wanted to stay for a while longer, but Qi Tanying really couldn't hold it anymore, he had no choice but to leave.

After he left, Qi Tanying fell asleep until almost noon and got up at noon. Fortunately, there were only three masters in the Qi family, and it was freezing cold. Mrs. Qi cared about her children, so she spared their greetings.At lunch time, the three of them, the mother and the son, gather together.

After lunch, Madam Qi gave Qi Tanying and Qi Yukun each a red envelope as lucky money.The siblings' eyes widened after they took it apart and looked at it. Their mother was so generous that she even gave them a shop for each of them.

Inside the red envelope is the title deed document for the shop.Qi Yukun is a shop specializing in pens, ink, paper and inkstones, while Qi Tanying's is a clothing shop.

This red envelope is really rich.

At this time, Qi Tanying still doesn't know that this New Year, she will not only receive several generous New Year gifts, but also a troublesome matter is waiting for her!
