Yan Cigui

Chapter 53: If there are problems, correct them; if there are no problems, encourage them

The carriage entered Chengyi Bo's house.

Mrs. Chen was explaining things to her nuns. When she heard the news, she couldn't help but be surprised.

“How come it’s this hour?” Mrs. Chen muttered, then turned to look at the sky outside the window, “Isn’t it quite bright?”

When she reacted, her lips pursed.

　　The flower party was supposed to be held until the sun went down, but Yun Yan and Yun Fang came back early, probably because something went wrong.

 Did someone fall and get injured?

Mrs. Chen couldn't sit still, so she got up and looked outside. As soon as she left Hanhui Courtyard, she saw two sisters walking arm in arm from a distance. She was relieved.

 If you walk as usual and seem to be talking and laughing, then it’s not a big deal.

When the two of them came closer, Mrs. Chen took one by the other and said, "Why are you coming back so early? Didn't you say you were going to have a horse hanging today? Yunfang is so addicted that I thought you wouldn't come back until it was dark."

Lin Yunfang rubbed the tip of her nose.

Ms. Chen's eyes suddenly tightened. As for her biological daughter, she could tell anything about her emotions at a glance.

 She could see the appearance when she was far away, but now that she is by her side, she can immediately grasp the small changes.

 She did not speak immediately, but only asked Lin Yunyan with her eyes.

Lin Yunyan chuckled: "Let's sit in the room and talk."

 After sitting down, Lin Yunfang told me the whole story.

Ms. Chen didn’t open her mouth to interrupt, and she kept listening patiently. Only she knew that there was a fire in her chest that was rushing towards Tianling Gai.

Yunfang regarded Zheng Liu as a good friend, and Mrs. Chen also met the girl several times.

Just looking at the appearance, I really can’t imagine that there is such a vicious black heart hidden inside!

After taking a few deep breaths, Mrs. Chen managed to calm down her emotions, held Lin Yunyan's hand tightly, and said: "Yunyan, thanks to you being here today, if you hadn't happened to find out that Zheng Liu had evil intentions, if you hadn't I can’t even imagine how Yunfang will behave after Lili strives to make things clear.”

Lin Yunyan smiled lightly, as gentle as the warm spring breeze.

Ms. Chen looked at her and couldn't help but feel more relaxed: "Fortunately, nothing happened. Yunfang just suffered the disadvantage of not being able to speak."

 The family has a good temperament, and when there are conflicts, they will patiently listen and talk things over, so that Yunfang never encounters the situation of "a scholar meets a soldier".

 As a result, she was unable to react when someone deliberately set up an ambush.

Lin Yunyan said: "I think Yunfang's words are quite right. They go straight to Zheng Liu's heart."

Chen called Lin Yunyan and made her laugh.

 When you laugh out loud, you won’t feel so panicked.

Urging Lin Yunfang to change her clothes, Mrs. Chen then discussed with Lin Yunyan: "Since Zheng Liu made such a mistake, it stands to reason that he should come to Yunyang's house. According to my wishes, I will apologize to Yunfang in the future." Contacted that family.”

"You still have a good heart," Lin Yunyan shook her head, "In my opinion, the Zheng family will not come to apologize."

Chen was startled when he heard this.

 No apology?

There are still people like this who don’t understand the rules, are disrespectful of etiquette, and are shameless?

　　When Yunding was a child, he played with his buddies of the same age from the neighboring houses. He went crazy in half the garden and knocked over several pots of flowers.

Afterwards, Mrs. Chen picked out a few pots of good ones, asked Yun Ding to hold them, and led him to the door to apologize.

 Not only my own family, but other families also came to pay compensation and admit their mistakes.

 It is only natural to apologize when you have done something wrong.

That was all done accidentally, Zheng Liu had already planned it.

"It can't be so bad..." As soon as the words left her mouth, Chen stopped herself.

 Okay.

She has seen shameless people before.

“If his family doesn’t apologize, then we just let it go?” Ms. Chen asked.

"Forget it," Lin Yunyan said, "Come to our house to apologize. There is no point in talking about good or bad. They say that a lesson learned is a lesson learned. So if Grand Duke Xu's Mansion didn't block my grandmother, how could Uncle Yunyang's Mansion make the same mistake again?

If her family wants to talk about this, they will pick a time when there are many people and put grandma up..."

"That's not possible!" Mrs. Chen said hurriedly, "Your grandmother's temperament cannot stand being roasted on the fire."

Lin Yunyan couldn't help but smile, and comforted Mrs. Chen: "Grandma has made progress."

After saying this, Mrs. Chen also laughed: "It's different. Last time, Duke Xu's palace acted too outrageously and ugly. It was also in Cining Palace, no one else was there, and the Empress Dowager turned towards us..."

"Don't worry," Lin Yunyan said, "I'll go and give my grandmother a warning so that she doesn't get muddy by the people from Yunyang's Mansion."

After sending Lin Yunyan away, Chen went across the courtyard to see Lin Yunfang.

As soon as she walked into the room, she smelled the strong fragrance of ink.

Mammy pointed to the side of the study room with her: "The girl said she wanted to write something."

Ms. Chen raised her eyebrows.

She didn't bother and sat in the second room. She waited until Lin Yunfang put down her pen before she raised the curtain and went in.

 “Write with concentration,” she asked, “What did you write?”

Lin Yunfang said honestly: "My experience in quarreling with others."

 Ms. Chen was confused.

 Can you still gain insights from a quarrel?

"Second sister taught me," Lin Yunfang said, "I have memorized it all. When I quarrel with others, I will follow it. I will never be hurt by others and cannot even understand what I say."

The more Chen listened, the more curious he became, so he went over and read it from cover to cover.

The first half is Lin Yunyan’s experience, and the second half is Lin Yunfang’s own experience. She also analyzed today’s situation as an example from beginning to end.

 Chan:…

 In terms of seriousness and sincerity in studying, Yunfang is indeed a good student.

My mother will not dampen the enthusiasm of good students, she must encourage them no matter what.

“A good memory is worse than a bad writing,” she said. “Read more when you have free time, review the past and learn new things. When you can understand everything and draw inferences from one instance to another, we will all feel relieved.”

Stepping out of the courtyard and returning to her room, Ms. Chen took a sip of tea and calmed down her unexplainable mood.

"The girl knows her own shortcomings, and she also wants to improve herself..." said Grandma Zeng, suppressing a smile.

 “Improvement is a good thing.” Chen said.

She herself is not clumsy with her mouth, but she is also not thick-skinned and does not say things that would make others uncomfortable.

So much so that when I really want to take action, I feel guilty first.

Last time, if Yun Yan hadn't encouraged her and taught her the rules, she would probably have lost both people and battles.

 There is no limit to the sea of ​​learning and there is no end to learning.

From now on, she can’t let Yun Fang compete with her, can she?

 In the experience gained just now, what Yun Yan taught was quite reasonable, so she had to write it down.

 “Prepare pen and ink,” Chen said.

It was so sudden that Grandma Zeng didn’t react.

Chen nodded solemnly: "If there are any, then correct them; if not, then encourage them."

 If you don’t quarrel, you have to reason, and reasoning must be done skillfully.

 They are sincere and the uncle is a reasonable family.

 On the other side, in the Zai Shou Courtyard, Mr. Duan finished listening to what happened.

"Believe me, if her family wants to talk to us about this matter, they will definitely not come to the house. They will wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival, when the wife goes to Cining Palace to say hello," Lin Yunyan said, "So many people are here. Waiting outside the palace gate to be summoned by the Queen Mother, she comes to see you, what do you say?"
