The early affairs between Song Qinghuan and Wei Yutang have long since faded away, and they sincerely felt that Wei Yutang and Brother Xu would be a little lonely during the Chinese New Year, so they invited them without any thought.
Wei Yutang was afraid that Xiao Ci would misunderstand, so he quickly refused and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Princess Xie, but Brother Xu and I have been like this in the past few years, and we are used to it."
Brother Xu saw the same thing as Wei Yutang and didn't say anything. He was still obedient and obedient.
Song Qinghuan still wanted to persuade him, but Xiao Ci stopped him: "It's just a matter of having a meal. My children will arrive in Beijing in a few days, and it will be fun for them to be together."
Wei Yutang was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Xiao Ci, only to see him nodding frankly.
Wei Yutang thought that Xiao Ci must not want to see him. Unexpectedly, he couldn't help but laugh, and he said that he was really not being pretentious: "Since the prince invites you like this, then it's better to be respectful than to obey."
Xiao Ci held the tea bowl, coughed slightly to cover up, and muttered: "You are really rude."
Although he said this, he also meant the invitation sincerely.
A few people sat there for a while and chatted a few words. When it was getting late, Wei Yutang got up and left.
Song Qinghuan saw that Brother Xu loved to eat sweets, so he packed a box and asked him to take it back and eat it slowly.
Brother Xu didn't want it at first, but Song Qinghuan said: "Your mother also likes to eat this candy. You are really mother and son."
Brother Xu has been traveling with Wei Yutang for several years, and he has indeed not visited Zhang Yunwei for many years. Thinking of what happened when he was a child, his eyes turned red, but he still reached out and took it, and said obediently: "Thank you, Aunt Song, my mother knows
It must be very gratifying that you love me so much."
Song Qinghuan couldn't help but her eyes turned red, she rubbed his head and said, "I'll go see your mother with you tomorrow."
Brother Xu nodded, the two agreed on a time, and Xiao Ci sent the person out.
Wei Yutang himself has a small house in Kyoto, and this is where he went to stay.
The two women walked side by side, Wei Yutang held Brother Xu's hand, and after a long time, he suddenly said: "I took Brother Xu to Ruizhou last year. The place is very good, and the prince is indeed talented.
."
Xiao Ci looked sideways at Wei Yutang, curled his lips and smiled, but he didn't want to be pretentious: "There is no other way, I just want a way to survive."
After a pause, he said again: "Since you arrived in Ruizhou, why didn't you show up? Let Qing Huan take a look at Brother Xu."
Wei Yutang also smiled, but he didn't respond to these words. He only raised his eyes and glanced at the waning moon hanging in the sky, and said: "Actually, I am very glad that I did not marry her..."
Xiao Ci looked over in confusion. They were all men. He could see that Wei Yutang had a deep affection for Song Qinghuan. Even after so many years, he could not forget it.
Wei Yutang said: "I really can't give you what you can give her. If I married her, maybe she wouldn't be able to live such a happy life."
Xiao Ci laughed out loud: "What, are you trying to express your stance to me and give up?"
Wei Yutang's long-standing knot seemed to be untied, and he also burst into laughter: "I can't compete with you either."
The two met and smiled, and Xiao Ci patted Wei Yutang on the shoulder: "Thank you big brother for letting me go. This day is worth celebrating. I'll treat you to a drink another day."
"Okay, but I'm also very particular about it. I won't appreciate wine unless it's good wine."
"What kind of status do I have, can I greet you with something that is not worthy of publicity? I lose my status..."
"Don't you do those things that disgrace your identity a lot?"
"Brother, please save some face, otherwise don't blame me for turning against you..."
The two of them drifted away from each other, and the grudges of the past seemed to have disappeared today.
Xiao Ci sent Wei Yutang away, and when he came back, he was obviously in a good mood. He asked the kitchen to prepare the food and drinks, and after ordering a pot of wine, he and Song Qinghuan had two drinks.
In the past, Song Qinghuan would have drank with him, but today, he pushed the wine cup awkwardly: "I don't drink this."
Then he asked the little maid to bring some honey water.
Xiao Ci was still surprised: "I see you usually drink a lot, but why don't you drink any alcohol today? But you haven't recovered from the cold yet?"
Song Qinghuan responded vaguely: "It's not good. My body is no better than before. Don't call me these things from now on."
After a pause, he frowned again, and simply snatched the wine cup in front of him, and asked someone to take it away along with the wine bottle: "Drinking is harmful to your health, I think you won't drink again in the future."
Just because he wanted to drink two glasses of wine, Xiao Ci watched helplessly as the wine cup and flask were taken down, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Today, Brother Wei Sange praised me for marrying a good wife, but he didn't
You know my suffering."
Song Qinghuan glared at him, not giving in at all, and first scolded: "You still call me third brother, how shameless are you?"
Then he said: "Don't let me find you stealing wine, otherwise I will kick you out and sleep on the street."
The thing about sleeping in the wing room last time was still fresh in Xiao Ci's memory, so he immediately stopped to refute, looked at the table of wine and food, and then he smiled and asked the maid to bring a cup of honey water.
He responded: "Isn't it just my wife calling me third brother?"
Early the next morning, Xiao Ci took the carriage to Tongzhou Pier to wait for some children, but Song Qinghuan wanted to follow Wei Yutang to pay homage to Zhang Yunwei.
What's rare is that Xiao Ci didn't clamor to follow him. If it had been in the past, he would have followed so jealously.
Song Qinghuan felt strange and asked once again: "I am going with Brother Wei San today, don't you say something?"
Xiao Ci then said: "If you have anything to say, I can rest assured about Brother Wei San. Just go ahead and wear thicker clothes."
Xiao Ci's generous appearance made Song Qinghuan feel wrong. He bumped into Wei Yutang with full of doubts and asked him in a low voice: "Brother Wei, did you say anything to my family yesterday? He was acting uncharacteristically."
Yes, it’s a bit unexpected."
Wei Yutang thought of yesterday's situation and smiled lowly: "It's nothing. Probably, his conscience discovered it."
Conscience discovery?
Song Qinghuan didn't think Xiao Ci would be aware of his conscience, but no matter how much she asked, Wei Yutang would not answer her.
Zhang Yunwei's bones were not found in the Wei family, but they were also found in the Zhang family, so they were buried alone.
The closer we got to our destination, the lower Xu's mood became. Wei Yutang held his hand and said softly: "Are you okay?"
Brother Xu lowered his head, nodded slightly, and said nothing.
Crossing a hillside, you can see Zhang Yunwei's grave.
Song Qinghuan just visited her a few days ago and cleaned the grave once. Since it was winter and the weather was freezing, it was still clean.
Wei Yutang placed the tributes one by one, and took Brother Xu to light incense and candles, and bowed several times.
Brother Xu knelt in front of the grave and kowtowed three times, and then he didn't get up again. His body could not stop shaking. After a while, he cried and said: "Mother...
