Since the day of farewell on the second day of the lunar new year, Zhang Yunwei had told Song Qinghuan several times that he must go visit her when she had free time.
Song Qinghuan always remembered that being married was always different than before. Socializing with everyone was indispensable and could not be postponed, so there was no time for many days in a row.
I sent someone to inform him early in the morning, and then loaded all the prepared gifts into the car and headed to Wei's house on Wujin Lane.
When the porter saw that it was the carriage of Prince Rui's Mansion, he welcomed it in politely.
However, they did not welcome Zhang Yunwei's residence, and were only led to the flower hall to entertain guests.
The little maid brought tea and snacks, but asked her to wait, saying that her wife had something to do and would delay the meeting.
Zhang Yunwei and Song Qinghuan have never been so estranged from each other. In the past, even if there were big things, she would not be treated like a serious guest in the flower hall.
But think about it, her current identity is different from before. Although it feels strange, she doesn't take it too seriously.
The little maid waiting in the flower hall was very diligent and served tea and snacks. If she saw that she took a bite, she would not like it and immediately brought something else.
If the tea runs out or becomes cold, you can always get a new one in time.
The little maid was polite and considerate, and even asked Song Qinghuan to take a look, but she didn't say anything.
After sitting in the flower hall for more than half an hour, Zhang Yunwei didn't come, and even the maids Hongyang and Baixiang beside her didn't see a shadow.
This made Song Qinghuan even more suspicious.
I caught the little maid serving tea and asked, "What is your wife busy with?"
The little maid then said: "I don't know about this, but my sister in the courtyard asked me to entertain the princess."
This little maid's eyes were clear and she didn't dodge or dodge. She looked like she really didn't know.
Texue glanced at Song Qinghuan and said, "Sister, can you go to your wife's house and ask her? Our princess has been here for a while and she hasn't even said a word. Maybe your wife got busy and forgot that this happened.
"
The little maid was also a little embarrassed. She looked at Ta Xue and said, "I only work in the flower hall. I can't go to Madam's inner courtyard."
After a pause, he added: "How about I ask other sisters to ask."
Song Qinghuan didn't say anything, and just asked Taxue to deal with the little maid.
After a while, the little maid went to look for someone to send a message.
Song Qinghuan gave Ta Xue a look of disdain, and Ta Xue nodded in greeting, and left the flower hall on the pretext of going to the official residence.
The maid who was guarding the flower hall saw that the little maid had left, so she remained silent.
The maid who had served tea just now left and returned. She first talked to Song Qinghuan about sending a message, and then asked about Ta Xue's whereabouts.
Song Qinghuan said with a normal expression: "I'm going to the official room."
Then he said to the little maid: "This tea is a little weak. Come with me to get a new one."
The little maid responded and got busy.
Before the new tea was delivered, Ta Xue came back. He looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. Then he leaned into Song Qinghuan's ear and whispered: "I just met Sister Baixiang. She said that Mrs. Wei is not paying attention."
I don't have time, I'm afraid it will be a waste of time to ask the princess to go back. I just asked the princess to go back first, and wait until Mrs. Wei is free tomorrow to go to our house."
Song Qinghuan turned his head and asked, "Do you know why you can't be free?"
Taxue said: "I heard someone from Lizhou is coming."
That's all I can find out, and I don't know much about it.
When Song Dashan went to Lizhou, it didn't take him a few days, and the news didn't come back so quickly. Naturally, he didn't know who was coming from Lizhou.
But after hearing Baixiang's words, it was not Wei Xiuming or his mother.
Since someone is coming from Lizhou, I'm afraid they really won't have time.
Song Qinghuan said: "Since she is not free, let's go back first and come back tomorrow when she is free."
Texue said something in response, and asked someone to take off the gift. He said something to Zhang Yunwei, and then returned to the palace.
When he returned to the palace, Song Qinghuan still wanted to ask someone to find out who from the Wei family was here, but before he could give the order, Xiao Jingtong was so troubled that he forgot about it.
Xiao Jingtong followed Song Qinghuan out to attend a banquet. After several days of grievances, his temper became more and more intense.
When Song Qinghuan went out, she went to Yipinju. When she heard that the princess was not there, she didn't leave. She sat on the heated kang and waited blankly for her to come back.
Song Qinghuan had just entered Yipin Residence, and Xunmei didn't even have the time to tell her about Xiao Jingtong.
Xiao Jingtong heard the commotion and ran out of the house, opening his mouth and saying: "Princess, I want to make new clothes and make new jewelry..."
We had just made seven or eight new clothes for her a few years ago. Since she was young, she didn't have much new jewelry, but if she matched them with the seven or eight clothes, they wouldn't look the same.
The Lantern Festival has not even passed yet, yet new clothes are being cut and new jewelry made. What is the fuss about?
Song Qinghuan glanced at Xunmei. Xunmei was also innocent. She didn't know what was going on. Anyway, the little ancestor came here in a rage. Hearing that the rightful owner was not here, he was not making any noise or making any noise, so he was just waiting here.
.
Seeing that Xunmei didn't know what was going on, he didn't say anything. He walked into the house and said, "What's wrong? The clothes I cut years ago are still topless. Now you don't like them anymore?"
Xiao Jingtong followed her into the room. He lowered his head and didn't say whether he liked it or not. He sat on the rose chair with his hands and feet, and then said gloomily: "I don't care, I want to make new clothes and make new jewelry."
Texue took off Song Qinghuan's cloak, Xunmei brought hot tea, refilled some honey water for Xiao Jingtong, and set out two plates of snacks.
Song Qinghuan then said: "It's easy to cut new clothes and get new jewelry, but there must be a reason."
Xiao Jingtong didn't say anything, and sat there with his head down. After a long time, he said: "They said that I am a child without a mother. Whatever I want, the princess will not give it to me."
After a pause, he raised his head again, his eyes filled with tears: "I don't care, I want new clothes and jewelry, you have to give me whatever I want."
Song Qinghuan's heart skipped a beat. She thought it was just a child who wanted to cut out new clothes and put them away because he was not interested in novelty. He never thought that this was the case.
He immediately became angry and asked: "Them? Which one are they?"
Xiao Jingtong had been talking for a long time, but he didn't see whether Song Qinghuan should give it or not. He suddenly lost his patience and said angrily: "They are them. Why do you ask so many questions? You only talk about new things."
Do you want to give me clothes or new jewelry?"
He was also afraid that Song Qinghuan would not respond, so he added: "If you don't cut my clothes or give me jewelry, I will go to my father."
Song Qinghuan didn't want to joke with her either. He put down the tea bowl, sat up straight and said seriously: "Clothes and jewelry are nothing. Although I am the stepmother, I won't let you be looked down upon by others. Just wait and call me when you turn around."
