Chapter 20 Neighborhood Rumors

At the banquet, Song Kai finally understood that Li Menghan was indeed the youngest daughter of the eldest princess family. Her father, the son-in-law, was Dong Changyun, who was the first person in the imperial examination at that time and a famous talented man in the entire Tang Dynasty.

Originally, if Chang Yun was an official, he would have done something good, but he was already desperate about the current chaotic government. In addition, he really fell in love with the eldest princess Li Wan, so he became the prince consort. Although he had no real power, he lived a good life.

Dong Changyun's mother's uncle is Sun Tang, so Li Menghan and Sun Ximei are cousins. The other two boys, Dabao and Erbao, are also related to Sun Ximei and Li Menghan. The reason why the eldest princess moved out of the palace was because Dong Changyun's relatives were here.

After some conversation, Song Kai had already called him brothers and sisters, including Sun Ximei, Li Menghan, Dabao and Erbao.

"Song Kai, if you have any ideas, we will definitely help you even if you say them," Sun Ximei said. She is usually serious. Except for Li Menghan, the other younger brothers and sisters are afraid of her. What she said today also shows that she is indeed willing to make trouble with Song Kai.

Song Kai nodded, looked at a few drunk boys and girls, and wanted to laugh in his heart. He said, "Actually it's easier. I thought about it yesterday, why did Liu Jiqian marry Liu's wife so resolutely? I think it's just because Yang Huaiyan can bring convenience to Liu Jiqian. The biggest convenience is that the recent emperor tribute silk. Yang Huaiyan must have made this promise that Liu Jiqian married his daughter so urgently and resolutely."

"It's so hateful!" Li Menghan slapped the table, stood up drunk, took two steps, and sat down next to Song Kai, "Brother Song, don't worry, Huang Gong needs to agree to the Weaver Mansion. When I went back, I told my mother that Yang Huaiyan could not arrange someone to take this job."

Song Kai patted Li Menghan's head beside him, "Then Brother Song Kai will thank you."

Li Menghan giggled, her little head wanted to avoid it, but she gave up thinking that Song Kai and Miss Liu had such sincere feelings.

Sun Ximei narrowed her eyes and saw Song Kai slapping Li Menghan's head intimately, she felt something was wrong. It was not appropriate to drink at the same table. Now she is having a blind date with her skin, but she seems to be unable to say anything.

Song Kai really didn't have many ideas. Although Li Menghan was very cute, she was too young after all.

Seeing that the drinks were almost done, Song Kai whispered: "Today I have a plan, maybe I can take back Miss Liu at the last moment, but I need your help."

Li Menghan nodded, blushing, "You said, Song Kai, we will definitely help you."

"Today you go to Liu Jiqian's house. You just need to do this. At that time, I believe that Manager Liu will recognize the true face of Yang Huaiyan," Song Kai whispered and said the plan. Most of the plans were thought out by Xue Weihai, and then it was just a little processed by Song Kai.

After listening to Song Kai’s plan, everyone in the box laughed, and after saying something interesting, he left.

After doing this, Song Kai breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, he must ask Liu Jiqian to dispel his plan to marry his daughter to Yang Huaiyan.

After Sun Ximei left the inn, she waved and separated with Yang Menghan and others, and walked towards Liu Jiqian's home.

When he arrived at Liu Jiqian's house, he knocked on the door. Soon an old man came to open the door. When he saw that it was a woman, he was a little surprised and said, "Miss, you are here..."

"Oh, I am the doctor of Huichuntang, and Sun Tang is my grandfather," Sun Ximei reported her name.

When the old man heard this, he quickly bent down and said, "It turns out to be Mrs. Sun from Huichun Hall."

Sun Ximei nodded, "Is your wife Liu at home? Last time she went to our store to ask something. Today I came to talk to Mrs. Liu at my grandfather's order."

"Ah! Please, please, please, I'll go and say to the master now," the old butler bent over and took Sun Ximei in respectfully.

Sun Ximei nodded.

When he arrived at the living room, Sun Ximei sat for a while, and soon Liu Jiqian walked over quickly, "Miss Sun's family, I'm so frightened."

Sun Ximei stood up and looked at Liu Jiqian with her eyes. This person was slightly fat and had a kind face. She didn't look like a traitor or evil person, but she had a wide forehead and looked like she was greedy for money.

He bowed his hand and made some politeness with Liu Jiqian.

"Hey, I don't know when the little girl will go to Huichuntang. Speaking of which, it's because I, a father, don't care about her too much," Liu Jiqian sighed, "Miss Sun has sat down for a while, and I've asked someone to call her."

As she was talking, Liu Yuchan walked in from the door and frowned slightly when she saw Sun Ximei. She had never been to Huichuntang for diagnosis and did not know the woman in front of her.

Sun Ximei looked up and down at Liu Yuchan, and felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart. This woman was indeed beautiful, and with her childhood sweethearts with Song Kai, no wonder Song Kai was obsessed with her.

"Hello, may I ask you..." Liu Yuchan was confused.

Sun Ximei laughed, "Miss Liu, have you forgotten? Last time you went to our Huichuntang, I took your pulse. Let's go, let's go to your room to explain the condition."

As he said that, Sun Ximei took Liu Yuchan's arm and walked out, while her eyes winked at Liu Yuchan.

Liu Yuchan is naturally also a smart woman. She followed Sun Ximei out and the two of them walked towards the boudoir of the backyard.

In the living room, Liu Jiqian sighed, "Hey, since her mother died, I have become more and more unfamiliar with Chan'er."

The old housekeeper poured a glass of water and brought it to Liu Jiqian, "Master, don't blame yourself. Lady Liu has always been smart and independent."

"Well, I hope she will be satisfied with the marriage arranged for her this time. Yang Huaiyan is one of the four talents in Suzhou City. His father is also an official of the court, so he will be of great help to me," Liu Jiqian said, laughing, "It's been so many years in a flash. It turns out that the little girl is going to get married."

After hearing this, the old butler frowned slightly, and then whispered: "Master, I don't know whether I should say it or not."

"Well? Old Li, why are you so polite all of a sudden? You and I have been in love for more than 30 years," Liu Jiqian smiled slightly, "Though said."

"Master," the housekeeper thought for a while, and said, "Recently, there have been many rumors among the neighbors, saying that Yang Langjun... said that Yang Langjun is a person who seeks fame."

"Hmm? What's going on? Old Li, tell me in detail," Liu Jiqian sat down, "What the hell is going on?"

The old housekeeper spoke out all the rumors he heard, such as Yang Huaiyan, who was ignorant and relied on his father's rights to obtain fame and fortune. He also had misbehaviors, often went to brothels and did not return at night, and his character was even worse. He often insulted the maids at home...

Liu Jiqian heard the fat mouths open one by one, "It's really...this is really the case!"

The old butler sighed, "I don't believe it either, so I heard it at first, just smiled, but later I heard these rumors in the vegetable market and teahouses, and these rumors have nostalgia, so I can't help but not believe it."

"How could it be...how could it be like this!" Liu Jiqian was shocked. He was about to get married. The dowry was received, but this happened. Didn't he push his daughter into the fire pit?

Let’s talk about Liu Yuchan’s boudoir, Liu Yuchan looked at Sun Ximei in confusion, “Sister Sun, what’s going on?”

Sun Ximei took Liu Yuchan's hand and laughed and said, "Today, I was entrusted by someone to come to find you."

"Be entrusted by someone?" Liu Yuchan was still a little confused.

"Yes, hey, the relationship between you and Song Kai makes me jealous as a woman," Sun Ximei sighed.

Liu Yuchan opened her mouth and finally understood for a while. She still felt a little disbelief, "Is it... Song Kai invited you? Song Kai... How did you meet Song Kai?"

Sun Ximei smiled, "It's all small things, but Song Kai's feelings for you really make me envious. The two poems he wrote for you make people cry."

"Ah?" Liu Yuchan became even more confused.

Sun Ximei sighed, waved her hand, and said, "Stop talking about those things, Sister Yuchan, Song Kai and us have already made plans, which will definitely make your father change his mind. Tomorrow you will take your father to my clinic. Everything has been arranged, so don't worry."

Liu Yuchan was even more stupid. All of this was what Song Kai thought? The nerd Song Kai could tell the nerd that Mrs. Sun from the clinic came to run errands? The nerd Song Kai actually made a plan to make his father change his mind. The key is, when did Song Kai write poems for me? And even made Mrs. Sun jealous?

Sun Ximei patted Liu Yuchan's hand again and said, "Sister, I must take your father to the clinic tomorrow. It's getting late, so I'll go back first."

Liu Yuchan nodded quickly and smiled at Sun Ximei, "Please trouble Sister Mei. If it really makes my father change his mind, I will be very grateful in the future."

Sun Ximei just smiled, turned around and left, and arrived at the hall. Seeing Liu Jiqian drinking tea with a gloomy face, Sun Ximei didn't care and said, "Shopkeeper Liu, I'm very ashamed. I'm still a little confused about Miss Liu's condition. Tomorrow you need to take Miss Liu to Huichun Hall and ask my grandfather to diagnose it myself."

Liu Jiqian was startled and hurried over and said, "Okay, OK, Madam Sun, Yuchan's body...is..."

"It doesn't matter. Some women have hidden diseases, which should be due to liver qi stagnation, which may be related to the marriage. Manager Liu doesn't need to ask more questions," Sun Ximei smiled at Liu Jiqian and left.

Liu Jiqian felt ache in his heart. Could it be that he forced his daughter to get sick?
