Volume 1: The Husband Chapter 67 No One Is Seen Alive, No Body Is Seen Dead (Part I) [Second Update

Since the death of the eldest princess Funing, the wife of the Anguo Mansion, the Song family's courtyard has been very cold and lonely for a while, but the hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, and the adult Song Yu is outstanding among the young generation in the capital and is deeply favored by the emperor, so the current Song family of the Anguo Mansion, even if it is not as prosperous as it was back then, is still a first-class family, if it comes to the marriage of children, many people put the Song family in the first choice.

Now that Song Yu has the permission of the emperor, he can make his own decisions. But Song Ying is different, she is only a few months younger than Qing Ruxu, and now it is the year of her prime, and the matchmaker who came to say goodbye has already broken through the threshold.

Song Ying heard Qing Ruxu ask, and her ears couldn't help but feel a little hot, "What did my cousin say, what did you think?" Where do I have any thoughts......"

She is wearing a light violet skirt today, combing the concentric buns that have been popular in the boudoir recently, and a pair of treasure wing feather hairpins are inserted on both sides, which looks indescribably bright and moving. Qingru looked at her with a smile, "You still want to hide it from me?" Your preoccupied look is almost written on your face! ”

Song Ying thought of the situation when she met Xue Zhun on the street, and smiled reluctantly, a pair of shallow pear vortices seemed to contain a sense of sadness, "There is really no ......" she said, and ordered someone to bring up the rose cake she had just bought, in addition, there were all kinds of small snacks made by the kitchen lady of the Song Mansion.

In fact, Song Ying didn't say it, Qing Ruxu also knew that she deeply felt the fluctuations in Song Ying's heart, it was the yearning of the girl who was just beginning to fall in love for her sweetheart, and the emotion of secretly confusing and suffering from gains and losses was the most torturous.

For a while, she was also infected by Song Ying's emotions, recalling that when she first saw Jiang Rin in her previous life, in the Great Ci'en Temple, under the solemn ancient temple Buddha Hall, she looked at the person who was reflected by the sun from afar, and her body was like jade, and she instantly felt that her life's longing should be in this person's body, that inexplicable confusion, pulling her towards him, following him, and clinging to him.

Song Ying saw that she was slightly distracted, so she leaned over and asked quietly: "It's cousin, since you are already very good, have you thought about who you want to marry in the future?" Jiang Tanhua is not in your eyes, and the sons of the family in the capital are afraid that they will be picked by you! Hahahaha...... Jiang Tanhua must have a headache, right? ”

Qingru glanced at her and said angrily: "In your eyes, am I a flower thief?" ”

As soon as Song Ying heard her say that she was a flower thief, she immediately remembered the recent rumors in Beijing, and said: "By the way, my cousin has been going out less recently, I heard that the flower thief has come to the capital!" The ladies of the boudoir don't dare to go out easily! When I go out, I bring a lot of people with me. ”

Qingru Xu was surprised: "Are you talking about the one named Shen Yue?" At that time, she had seen Shen Yue's wanted list on the sea fishing document at the city gate, so she still had an impression.

"Yes, that's him." Song Ying held a Poria cake in her mouth and said vaguely: "I heard that there have been several disappearances in the capital recently, and they are all young girls......

Qing Ruxu looked at her: "Then didn't you swagger out today?" ”

"I'm different! I'm not like my cousin who can't hold a chicken. Song Ying waved his fist: "If I see Shen Yue, he won't be able to run away!" ”

Qing Ruxu shook her head helplessly, not wanting to talk nonsense to her, and said, "By the way, I have something I want to ask you." ”

"What's the matter?"

"About my mother, I mean Xiao Song, have you ever heard of her aunt's origin?"

"Aunt Guan? What does she do, you ask? ”

"I just remembered it for a moment, and I was a little curious."

Song Ying thought for a while and said, "I heard my mother say something about Aunt Guan, which my father once said. ”

"Uncle said?"

"Yes, Aunt Guan was brought back from Jiangling by my grandfather, and my grandmother said that her origin was unknown and refused to let her in, but my grandfather insisted on taking her as a concubine, so my grandmother looked at Aunt Guan very unpleasantly. However, Aunt Guan was very sensible after entering the house, and she also respected her grandmother, and she was not flattering to her grandfather. ”

Qing Ruxu let out an "oh" and asked, "Then does my grandfather love Aunt Guan very much?" ”

"It's not a pamper, and Aunt Guan is almost only in her own yard, she doesn't come out easily, and she never messes with trouble like other aunts, she is a very soft, kind and quiet person, so her grandmother is more tolerant of her."

"Did she have only one child from start to finish?"

"Well, she has been in the house for ten years, and there is only one daughter in the second aunt, and then she died of illness."

Qing Ruxu didn't expect Xiao Song's biological mother to live so plainly in the Song family, so she thought about it and asked, "Then after Aunt Guan died, how did my mother remember it in my grandmother's name?" ”

"She is the same age as her eldest aunt, and she is well-behaved and sensible, and the two of them have been like sisters since they were children, so after Aunt Guan passed away, my grandmother and poor second aunt were left without a mother to take care of her at a young age, so she naturally raised them by her side."

"So that's it?" Qing Ruxu never knew about these things, because she had been raised by Xiao Song's side since she was a child, and everyone didn't mention her biological mother very much, for fear that she felt that she didn't have a mother and was different from other children. "But my uncle doesn't seem to be very close to my mother?"

Xiao Song's maiden name is Song Xianxian, and he ranks second in the family. After her grandfather and grandmother passed away one after another, she returned to the Song family several times.

"Yes, when I was a child, my father felt that my second aunt was too weak, and she always blindly catered to others, so I didn't like Aunt Xian Xian very much, not to mention ......" Song Ying said in a low voice: "What's more, the eldest aunt passed away later, and the second aunt became my uncle's steproom, my father always felt that she robbed the eldest aunt's husband, and I felt a little nostalgic in my heart......"

Weak? If Qing doesn't feel that Xiao Song's temperament is weak, you can know a thing or two by looking at her family. It seems that Xiao Song's scheming has been very deep since she was a child, and she treats her mother as she does to her now.

So, was it Aunt Guan's instigation?

"You say, grandfather brought Aunt Guan back from Jiangling back then?"

"It should be, anyway, A-Niang told me so. What's wrong? ”

"It's nothing ......" Qing Ruxu shook her head, thinking that Jiang Rin was not close to southern Xinjiang...... "Then when my grandfather met Aunt Guan, what was Aunt Guan like?" What do you do for a living? "A big living person, he always has to eat, right?

Song Ying didn't know it anymore, shook her head and said, "Aunt Guan is just an aunt, who cares who she is?" said that she was an orphan girl, and I don't know if it's true or not. ”

The implication is that Aunt Guan can't say that she can't be a trickster from three religions and nine streams, or maybe a Qing person, but her grandfather doesn't say it, only that she is an orphan girl, who would go to Jiangling so far away to find out?

"Hmm......" Qingru was a little disappointed.

"Cousin, why are you suddenly interested in the second aunt's aunt?"

"It just came to me suddenly, so ask." Qing Ruxu was afraid that she would ask too much, so she quickly diverted the conversation and said, "My aunt's side should be almost ready, let's go back to the flower hall, I haven't said a few words to the other cousins yet." ”

As soon as Song Ying heard it, he said, "Okay, well, today the kitchen specially made our two favorite fish soup, just thinking about it makes me drool!" ”

Qing Ruxu looked at her helplessly, and wanted to say, Xue Zhun and Yu Tang, you choose one......

………………

Qing Ruxu stayed at the Song family until sunset, and then got into the carriage under the reluctant eyes of everyone. Along the way, passing through the lively streets and alleys, the shouting of hawkers and the sound of children constantly coming from outside the carriage, chaotic but also lively, she couldn't help but lift the corner of the curtain and look out.

The summer sunset is a thick orange-red, no matter what is reflected on it, it is particularly dazzling, Qingru only feels that the purple gold is full of eyes for a while, and the brilliance is everywhere.

In such a scene, she suddenly saw a familiar figure standing straight in front of her, talking to someone, his demeanor was calm and gentle, and he looked like a gentleman, it was Jiang Rin.

Seeing this, the carriage had already arrived, and Qing Ruxu hurriedly withdrew his gaze and lowered the curtain, but it was too late. The coachman suddenly pulled the horse away, and the carriage stopped in front of Jiang Rin.

Qing Ruxu bit her lip and hesitated for a moment, then lifted the curtain again and looked out, and saw Jiang Rin looking at her with a smile on her face, and the person he was talking to just now had already left. Jiang Rin didn't say half a word of nonsense, and went straight to the point: "Ah Xu, I have something to tell you." ”

Qing Ruxu was a little stunned, she didn't want to say anything to him, but she was afraid that there would be something important, so she thought about it and said, "I'll wait for you in front of the Chunshan Xiaoyue Tower." ”

There were men's robes in Qing Ruxu's carriage, and it was convenient to change into outer clothes, and Lan Zhou and Shizhou also changed their clothes. The three masters and servants got out of the carriage and walked into the Spring Mountain Xiaoyue Tower. Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the door, I saw Bai Jingze coming out of it.

"Little Brother Song!" Bai Jingze hadn't touched her shadow for a long time, and he was very excited to see her at the moment.

"Uh...... Big Brother Bai ...... "Qing Ruxu's cheeks twitched slightly, it's really a coincidence."

"I haven't seen you for many days, are you okay? Last time, you asked me to do something, and I had no choice but to go to Brother Jiang for help. ”

"yes...... Ha ha. Qing Ruxu snorted and said, "Brother Jiang helped me solve a big problem, but your help is indispensable, I also wanted to come to thank you another day, but I didn't expect to meet you here." ”

"Although I don't need you to thank me, but we haven't seen each other for a long time, it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, today we might as well call Brother Shangjiang together, don't get drunk and don't return!" Bai Jingze's face was familiar, and as he spoke, his hand was about to put on Qing Ruxu's shoulder.

Qing Ruxu subconsciously made a mistake and dodged Bai Jingze's arm, just as Jiang Rin came in and knocked on his fingerbones, "What are you doing here?" ”

Bai Jingze withdrew his hand with a "hiss": "Brother Jiang, why did you poison me as soon as you came." Hey? You two, could it be that you secretly made an appointment here for a private meeting without me? ”

Bai Jingze was originally joking, but Qing Ruxu's face turned red when he heard it.

Jiang Rin pinched Bai Jingze's neck and pushed him out of the Spring Mountain Xiaoyue Tower, saying, "I have something important to talk about with Little Brother Song, and I will invite you to join me another day!" With that, he turned and walked away.

Bai Jingze looked at his back and shouted, "It's so ruthless, you two!" ”

No one paid attention to it, and Bai Jingze, who was extremely sad, let out a long sigh, "Fortunately, I still have Xue Zhun's stupid boy as a companion." ”
