Chapter 524: Chapter 483, The Love for a Daughter_1

Yan Zhigao, serving as an official away from home, had not been back to his old home for quite some years, yet thennection with the clan had never been severed; whenever people from the old home came to pay the rent each year, Madam Li would prepare new year gifts to give to some of the clan elders.

Upon learning that Yan Yunxi and her siblings were set to return, Madam Li started to get busy.

Main Courtyard.

Watching Madam Li just finish dealing with the family’s internal affairs and immediately throwing herself into preparing new year gifts, Yang Xiujun, who was brought over by Daohua, sighed, “Auntie Mother is really busy.”

Next to her, Daohua, looking at the gift list for the Yan clan people, smiled and added, “Once my big brother marries a sister-in-law, my mother can relax a bit.”

Hearing this, Madam Li said with an amused tone, “You girl, seem to be more anxious than I am.”

Daohua laughed and replied, “Isn’t this because I feel sorry for my mother? With a sister-in-law, mother wouldn’t need to work so hard.” She paused, furrowed her brows and said, “Mother, the Han Family has been staying with us for quite some time now, haven’t they let slip any hints?”

Madam Li’s smile faded a bit, “They are probably waiting for a reply from Beijing.”

Daohua, “I heard my snd uncle say that the snd master of the Han Family seemed to be acting quite deliberate?”

Madam Li, “…The girl’s side, after all, needs to have some reserve.”

Daohua pursed her lips, “I think, that Han snd master doesn’t seem to hold our family in high regard? If they really had the intention, after so many days, there should have been some word.”

Madam Li laughed, “The Han family is still an Earl’s family, after all; their actions and demeanor have some pride, which is understandable. It also serves to highlight the preciousness of their daughter.”

Daohua shrugged her shoulders, not speaking further.

Yang Xiujun, having transcribed the gift list, handed it to Madam Li, “Auntie Mother, can you see if this will do?”

Madam Li took the list and praised her at once, “Xiujun, your calligraphy is really beautiful.”

Yang Xiujun blushed modestly, “Compared to Sister Yiyi, my writing is far inferior.”

Madam Li shook her head, “Your writing is neat and elegant, Yiyi’s is fresh and ethereal; they’re different.”

Yang Xiujun smiled, “Auntie Mother, is there anything else I can help with?”

Before Madam Liuld reply, Daohua spoke first, “If Cousin Xiujun has nothing else to do, would you mind helping me bag up those herbs?”

Madam Li mock-lded, “You really know how tommand yourusin to work for you!”

Yang Xiujun laughed, “It’s nothing, I’m idle anyway.” With that, she sat opposite Daohua, looking at several baskets of prepared herbs on the table, “Cousin, do these herbs all need to be packed up?”

Daohua nodded, “These are all freshly harvested new herbs, whether they’re used for making soups oroking porridge, they’re nourishing. They’d be perfect as gifts for the clan members.”

Yang Xiujun glanced at the herbs, rgnizing only astragalus, angelica, and prepared rehmannia; she didn’t know the rest. Their quality was high, and they wouldst a fair bit of silver if bought at the pharmacy.

The uncle’s family is indeed generous.

She had briefly glanced earlier and saw that Madam Li had also prepared dates, walnuts, and sesame sticks; those gifts were significant for the peasant families.

Once she hadnfirmed how much to pack in each bag, Yang Xiujun got to work, occasionally looking up at Daohua while packing.

Daohua, was reviewing the gift list for the clan’s third uncle and Butcher Uncle, and noticing Yang Xiujun’s gaze, smiled and asked, “Cousin Xiujun, do you have something to say to me?”

Yang Xiujun quickly shook her head, but her eyes briefly swept over Daohua’s right hand.

Daohua smiled, “If you have something on your mind, just say it; don’t keep it bottled up.”
