He smiled softly and said, "Why are you so anxious? It will be the Lantern Festival in a few days, and I will have to go to the palace for a banquet. Are you afraid that no one else will know the name of this Baihe Academy student?"
Xiao Jingtong was overjoyed and chuckled: "Let's wait a few days. Anyway, I have to get ready to go to school."
The brother and sister sat in the courtyard for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, they each went back to their respective courtyards.
After sending the two children out, Song Qinghuan yawned again and asked Taxue Xunmei to wait on her and go to the bathroom to take a bath and hair.
Every time she bathes and washes her hair, it always takes a long time. After bathing, she has to apply balm, and her hair has to be smoothed with hair oil after wringing it out. After all this time, the moon is already high in the sky.
It was already this time, Xiao Ci hadn't come back yet, and no one came back to say anything. Song Qinghuan didn't wait for him, just packed up and rested.
Only then did he lie down on the couch, but before he fell asleep, he was woken up by Ta Xue Xunmei.
A lamp was lit in the room, and Taxue pushed Song Qinghuan awake and whispered: "Princess, wake up quickly, something happened."
Song Qinghuan was not asleep at all. He woke up when he heard the noise and sat up as soon as he opened his eyes: "What's wrong? What happened?"
Tuxue said, "It's something happened to the Wei family in Wujin Lane."
As he spoke, he found some homely clothes for Song Qinghuan to put on, and neatly cleaned them up for her.
"Hongyang has brought Brother Xu to our house. I asked Xunmei to avoid him and bring him to our yard. Please get up and see what is going on."
Song Qinghuan opened her hands and allowed Texue to dress her. When she saw Shi Chen, her eyebrows suddenly furrowed and her heart beat wildly.
He also thought about the fact that he didn't see Zhang Yunwei when he went to Wei's house in Wujin Lane yesterday, and he became anxious at the same time.
After putting on her clothes and wrapping her shoes, Song Qinghuan went outside and saw that Xunmei had brought brother Hongyang and Tongxu over.
Brother Xu was younger than Xiao Jing, and the look of fear on his face had not faded. He huddled behind Hongyang, not daring to look around.
Now it is the first month of the year, it is a very cold day, but Hongyang is wearing thin clothes, her body is dirty, her hair is messy, and her face is covered with mud.
Song Qinghuan was not in a hurry to ask questions and called Xunmei: "Hurry up and get Hongyang a coat to wear with her."
Xunmei deserves a shout and goes to look for clothes.
Hongyang waved her hands repeatedly and said, "Thank you, Princess, I can't stand the cold."
His eyes turned red, and he said again: "Brother, I haven't eaten for a whole day, Princess..."
Before she could finish speaking, Song Qinghuan ordered again: "Taxue, let the kitchen cook something easy to carve."
I wanted to ask Hongyang what was going on, but thinking that Brother Xu was still there, I asked the little maid to take Brother Xu aside to coax him some more.
Brother Xu was still a little scared. He grabbed Hongyang's clothes and kept shouting: "Sister Hongyang."
Hongyang knelt down and looked at Brother Xu with straight eyes, holding back tears, and then said: "Brother, be obedient. The princess is Madam's best friend. She will definitely protect brother. Brother, you must listen."
The princess must also listen to the madam."
Brother Xu couldn't hold back his tears, and they fell down. He didn't say anything, he just nodded firmly.
The hand holding Hongyang's clothes gradually loosened, and she asked the little maid to lead her away, turning her head one step at a time.
After taking Brother Xu down, Song Qinghuan could no longer hold back: "Hongyang, what's going on?"
Looking at Hongyang's miserable appearance, he knew that she didn't come out of the gate.
Brother Xu is Wei Xiuming's only son and the oldest brother in the family. There is no way he will be so hungry that he doesn't eat for a whole day.
Then he asked: "Who from the Wei family came to Kyoto?"
Hongyang's eyes were red, she knelt down in front of Song Qinghuan and started crying.
"Yes, it's the old lady and my husband."
Zhang Yunwei’s mother-in-law and husband.
Song Qinghuan's brows jumped and he started to panic. Hongyang's eyes filled with hatred again and she said viciously: "It's all them. They want to force the girl to death. They want to force the girl to death."
"The girl is in poor health. She has been tortured by this disgusting mother and son these past two days, and she is afraid that she will not be able to live for a few days. The girl said she was worried about her brother, so she asked the slave to secretly send him over.
I beg the princess, for the sake of past friendship, to ensure that my brother grows up safely."
After crying with Song Qinghuan on the second day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Yunwei's depression dissipated a lot and he felt comfortable.
Later I thought about how this would be the case for my whole life, and I thought about it if I was happy or unhappy every day.
My body is getting better day by day, and they all say that by following this regimen, I will definitely be cured.
Unexpectedly, Wei Xiuming and his mother suddenly came to Beijing, saying that they had arranged a wedding for Brother Xu.
Zhang Yunwei didn't even hear a word of the letter, but the mother and son had already settled on the marriage.
She cried and asked whose girl it was, but they kept mumbling and didn't say anything.
What Zhang Yunwei still doesn't understand is that it must be how good the Wei family can be.
She had been like this all her life, could it be that she allowed Brother Xu to become her second self, and then she couldn't breathe, vomited blood, and fainted immediately.
Brother Xu is a member of the Wei family no matter what, so the Zhang family has no reason to interfere, let alone the Zhang family doesn't want to interfere.
Zhang Yun secretly sent a letter to the Zhang family, but when she couldn't wait for a reply, she knew what her father's attitude was. For a moment, there was only despair.
The day Song Qinghuan went to Wujin Lane, Zhang Yunwei had been lying on the bed for two days, unable to even get up.
Perhaps the mother and son of the Wei family were afraid that the matter would change, or that someone would interfere. Even if Zhang Yunwei was so ill, he still had to take them back to Lizhou in a hurry.
Zhang Yunwei had been looking around for no hope in his life, but he couldn't bear to let his son follow his own old path, so he hid Brother Xu so that they wouldn't find him.
At night, he asked Hongyang to take him to Prince Rui's Mansion and entrust him to Song Qinghuan.
The one who gave birth to her and raised her was unreliable, and the only one she could count on was Song Qinghuan.
When Song Qinghuan heard Hong Yang explain the matter clearly in a few words, he was so angry that his face turned green and he said angrily: "These mother and son are no longer human beings."
Even though he was scolded, nothing could be done about it. The only reason why Wei Xiuming went so far was because he knew that the Zhang family would never quarrel with the Wei family over these matters.
Hongyang was wearing a coat and was kneeling on the ground crying until she was out of breath.
Texue and Xunmei helped her up, one wiped her tears, and the other comforted her: "Sister Hongyang, don't worry, our princess will definitely live up to your girl's trust."
Hongyang didn't dare to speak, she just cried. The Wei family was not someone to be trifled with, and the situation in Prince Rui's Mansion was such that she was afraid that Song Qinghuan would not dare to meddle in this nosy matter.
After all, even my parents and brothers, whose blood is thicker than water, don't care about this matter. No matter how affectionate the handkerchief is, if they care about it, it will cause a lot of trouble.
Hongyang looked at Song Qinghuan with red eyes, feeling uneasy. If she really didn't care, what would Brother Xu do?
