Xu Qinghuan stood up. The Song family had people brought by Song Chengxuan. Let alone thieves, even assassins could not get close to Mrs. Song.
The Song family asked their servants to say that there was a hidden secret that could not be mentioned to outsiders.
Xu Qinghuan said: "Master Song and I went to visit the old lady."
Feng Chu couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. A lot of food had been cooked in the big kitchen. She kept staring at the hourglass on the shelf. The food would definitely be better if she had more time.
"Go quickly!" Yin Gui told Feng Chu, "take good care of the young lady. Mother Gong has prepared the sauced hooves. If you come back after making them, you can eat them."
Feng Chu's eyes immediately lit up. Sister Yin Gui was still kind to her.
Xu Qinghuan informed his grandmother and mother, put on his coat, walked out of the house and got into the carriage.
To Xu Qinghuan's surprise, Xu Qing'an chased her out immediately, bent down and mounted his horse neatly: "It's getting late, I'll protect my sister and go with her."
Xu Qinghuan opened the curtain and looked at her brother. It was understandable that he was worried about her, but they had been together as brother and sister, and she was very familiar with his every move. At this time, his face was a bit embarrassed, as if he had suffered a loss somewhere.
…
Song family.
"It's not a big deal, there's no need to get into such a big fight," Old Mrs. Song smiled and looked at Xu Qinghuan, "You came here in a hurry and haven't eaten yet. It happened that the cook has learned a few Beijing dishes. You should try it too."
Not to the taste.”
The mother in charge will go down and make arrangements.
Mrs. Song's second wife still looked shocked.
"Why is there a thief in the house? Has he been caught?"
Mrs. Song Er pursed her lips and said: "It wasn't the old lady who was frightened, it was me... I got some wind when I went out. After taking medicine, I fell asleep in the house. When I woke up in a daze, I mistakenly turned the window outside the window.
The shadow of the tree looked like a human being, so the whole yard got up to look for the thief."
Mrs. Song's second wife said with a face of shame: "Now we have invited Brother Xuan, the eldest lady, and the prince back." If there was a crack in the ground, she really wanted to get into it, although the panic in her heart was still there.
Not as ashamed as he is now, at this time Brother Xuan was in the Anyi Marquis Mansion, and he definitely wanted to stay there to eat, but he was disturbed by a dream of hers. As an aunt, she really shouldn't have done such a thing.
Old Mrs. Xu laughed out loud: "What's wrong with this? If it weren't for you, I would have no excuse to use the big kitchen to prepare a banquet for you to chat with my old lady."
Everyone talked and laughed as if the matter was over. Xu Qinghuan looked at Mrs. Song. Although Mrs. Song had a smile on her face, the panic in her eyes had not completely dissipated. While everyone was talking, she still
I couldn't help but look out the window.
Mrs. Song Er was really frightened, it was not as simple as a dream.
Everyone got up and went to the flower hall to eat.
The second master of Song smiled and greeted Xu Qing'an: "The prince is a talented person, but after all he is a noble son... If there is a chance, he will definitely go to the Song family to teach the younger generations of the family."
Xu Qingan became interested: "Are there many people in the Song family?"
Mr. Song Er hesitated for a moment, but he did not expect that the prince would be so concerned about his polite words: "There are not many in our sect, but there are still some side branches."
"How many people are there in this sect?" Xu Qing'an asked again.
Mr. Song Er forced a smile and said: "There are only Quanzi and three nephews."
Xu Qing'an nodded meaningfully: "It doesn't matter if there are more. We are all members of the clan and should not be separated." He gathered all the Song family members together. If Song Chengxuan dared to bully his sister in the future, he would bring his brothers and nephews to support his sister.
,Thinking of this, Xu Qingan felt more and more that he had a heavy responsibility.
Have eaten.
Mrs. Song Er ordered her servants to clear away the dishes.
Mrs. Song's laughter could be heard in the room from time to time, and Mrs. Song also pursed her lips. Miss Xu was such a considerate child, no wonder the old lady liked her so much.
Mrs. Song Er let out a long sigh. Brother Xuan was about to get married. She was also an elder. She couldn't be so frivolous in the future. Thinking of today's experience, she couldn't help but grasp the handkerchief in her hand again. She was
My eyes are really dazzled, what kind of ghosts are there in this world? Even if there are...she hasn't done any bad things, they won't haunt her.
Everything has passed, and she will not think about it again, nor will she mention it to others.
"Second wife."
Mrs. Song Er was about to tell the steward to prepare tea when she heard the girl's crisp voice.
Mrs. Song Er turned around and saw Xu Qinghuan holding a jug of wine and looking at her with a smile: "The old lady was a little tired, so she asked me to talk to Mrs. Song. She also asked the mother in charge to bring a pot of plum wine, saying it was Er Mrs. Song.
My wife made it with her own hands."
Mrs. Song Er looked at the jug of wine and couldn't help but said: "I mess around with it on weekdays. It's okay to drink casually, but the old lady took it out to entertain the eldest lady..."
At this point, Mrs. Song Er ordered the steward: "Ask the kitchen to send some side dishes. I think the eldest lady likes sweets, and then make some snacks."
When the steward went down to make arrangements, Mrs. Song Er walked into the house with Xu Qinghuan.
There was a faint scent of incense in the room, and it smelled like benzoin.
After the plum wine was warmed, Xu Qinghuan picked it up and tasted it. It was sour and sweet, and it didn't have a strong alcoholic taste. She didn't have a good drinking capacity, but she shouldn't get drunk even if she drank this kind of plum wine.
Xu Qinghuan smiled and said: "The old lady is right, this plum wine tastes really good."
Mrs. Song Er couldn't help but smile: "I secretly learned this from my mother in charge when I was in the boudoir." Secretly learning to make wine, it would be unseemly to talk about such a thing, but facing Miss Xu, she seemed to have no idea.
these scruples.
This girl is different. She is extremely open-minded and can tolerate things that others cannot tolerate.
"The second wife's panic today must be more than just a nightmare!" Xu Qinghuan said in a gentle voice, "Can you tell me the whole story of the future?"
Mrs. Song Er's relaxed mood suddenly tightened. She raised her head and looked into the girl's clear eyes. Miss Xu came to talk to her after she discovered the clues.
Xu Qinghuan said: "It's better to speak out than to keep it in your heart."
Mrs. Song Er also knew this truth, but it was all without reason. After another glass of plum wine, Mrs. Song Er's whole body became warmer: "I saw a person on the street today. He was a former member of our Song family."
My servant, no... I just have some similarities. That man was killed by a murderer more than ten years ago when he was doing business with his uncle."
Xu Qinghuan nodded: "There will always be people in this world who look similar. Is this why the second wife has nightmares?"
Mrs. Song's eyes were slightly sunken and her voice was slightly hoarse: "Not only do we look alike, that person raised his head and glanced at me. I always felt that he knew me."
This is the key. Xu Qinghuan knew why Mrs. Song Er was panicking.
