Later, Qi Huan left with a big belly, and when she found Qi Huan later, she was already dead, leaving Song Chongjin who was crying.

When he settled Song Chongjin and returned to the capital, it was a treacherous time in the capital, and the Song family was crumbling at that time, even if it was the old duchess, she had no time to care about a Qi Huan.

Later, maybe the old Duchess guessed something and never mentioned Qi Huan again.

Song Hong actually mentioned Qi Huan's mother and son to the old Duchess again, and he was a little weak-hearted.

Sure enough, I heard Song Hong say that Qi Huan left a child, and he left that child outside for more than 20 years, and now he wants to recognize this child.

The Buddhist beads in the old Duchess's hand fell on the table at once, and she looked at Song Hong in surprise, and her cloudy eyes flashed a few remorse, "You...... How do you do such a thing? Are you worthy of Qi Huan, worthy of that child, worthy of the Qi family, and worthy of your conscience? You-"

Saying that, the old Duchess looked black for a while, grabbed the table at hand, and barely stabilized her mind.

A trace of shame flashed on Song Hong's face, and he bowed his head and knelt in front of the old duchess without speaking.

The old Duchess took a few breaths and said hatefully: "What the hell is going on, you tell me honestly." ”

Song Hong knelt on the ground, and told the old Duchess about the original incident, as well as the meeting between Qi Cheng and Song Chongjin, and the interview with Song Chongjin a few days ago.

When the old Duchess heard that he had found Qi Huan, not long after Qi Huan died, when Song Hong gave Song Chongjin to a country woman to raise, she couldn't help but slap the table: "You are confused!" No matter how bad it is, it is also your flesh and blood, and it is also the only blood and blood left in the world by Qi Huan's child, how can you, how can you hand him over to a country woman who doesn't know the roots? ”

"If you bring it back, even if you can't keep it at home, there are so many people in our clan, isn't it better for you to entrust it to the clan than to throw it away thousands of miles away?"

Song Hong whispered: "At that time, the situation at home was not easy to say, I didn't think that if our family failed to escape, this would still leave a trace of blood for our Song family——"

The old Duchess had a cold face, listened to Song Hong continue, and said that she had left Song Chongjin in the countryside, and she didn't care about it for many years, so she sneered: "Since the family is fine later, and our family is stable, why don't you bring people back?" ”

Song Hong bowed his head and was silent.

A moment of silence spread between the mother and son.

After a while, Song Hong continued to talk about Qicheng, and when Song Hong finished speaking, the old duchess glanced at Song Hong with a smile: "It's a good boy with backbone." ”

Song Hong's face turned red, and he continued to say that Song Chongjin was admitted to the lifter, and now he has moved to the capital.

After listening to this, the old Duchess picked up the Buddhist beads that fell on the table, closed her eyes, and asked while twisting the Buddhist beads: "Since this kid, you didn't care about his life or death a few years ago, he can also rely on his own ability to pass the examination, and maybe he can also be admitted to the Jinshi in the future, and the future will be very good, and he can get ahead without relying on the Weiguo Mansion." ”

"When it was the hardest, you didn't give him a favor, but now that people are out of business, you want to pick fruits? You're willing, you asked the kid if he was willing? When the last sentence came out, Song Hong felt a hot pain on his face.

"I, I'm his own father—" Song Hong couldn't help but speak.

"Daddy? If you are that child, you know that your mother was killed by your father, and you were left in the countryside to recognize a country woman as your mother-in-law, and you were sucked blood for more than ten years. And because of your father, you almost lost your life several times. Such a father, would you recognize it? The old Duchess endured for a while before saying.

Song Hong forced himself to calm down: "Anyway, he has my blood on his body!" It is natural to recognize the ancestors and return to the ancestors! I couldn't live with him before, but now I let him return to the Song family, isn't it to make up for him? Wouldn't I just treat him well in the future? ”

The old duchess opened her eyes and looked at Song Hong quietly for a long time, and saw that Song Hong looked away a little weakly, before she spoke: "Say, you want to recognize that child back, what is your idea?" ”

Song Hong knew that his thoughts could not be hidden from the old Duchess of the country, so he had to tell the future plight of the Weiguo Mansion and his own plans, and finally said: "I can't live with him!" But now I recognize him back, and it is for his own good. really relies on his ability, and it is estimated that he will be a five- or six-grade sesame official in this life. If there is Wei Guogong behind him, maybe he will enter the cabinet in the future, wouldn't it be better than being unknown for a lifetime? ”

"Besides, as long as he can do it, this Patriotic Mansion will also be hiss in the future, and letting him be the Guardian Prince, can't he make up for the poor treatment of the first twenty years?"

The old duchess looked at Song Hong's righteous face, and saw the appearance of the old grandfather in a trance.

couldn't help but close his eyes and waved his hand tiredly: "Since you have decided, what do you want to say to me, an old woman?" Can I stop you? ”

Song Hong said in a low voice: "If you really recognize it, my son is afraid of Gao's her-"

The old Duchess showed an indescribable smile: "The Gao family has always been virtuous and virtuous, and everything respects you, as long as you open your mouth, when will she refute your face?" ”

Song Hong didn't dare to say any more, but said, "That son will retire." ”

As he spoke, he got up and walked two steps, and heard the faint voice of the old Duchess behind him: "If you really pick up the child back, for the sake of Qi Huan's girl who is dead, the motherless child, treat him well-"

Song Hong's footsteps paused, answered in a low voice, and walked out of the door.

Seeing that the old duchess did not object, Song Hong went to the clan again and discussed the matter with the patriarch.

Now the Song family is the most powerful in the line of the Duke of Weiguo, and the entire family is attached to the Duke of Weiguo. Let's not mention that it is natural for the bloodline that has been left out to recognize and return to the ancestors, even if there is something wrong, this patriarch does not dare to say anything.

As for Gao's side, Song Hong ordered people to go to the main courtyard, saying that they would go to dinner in the evening.

In the afternoon, when Song Hong arrived at the main courtyard, Gao had been waiting at the door for a long time.

Song Hong hurriedly stepped forward to hold Gao's hand, and said distressedly, "Why aren't you waiting in the house?" Your body is weak, and you can't blow the wind, and your hands are cold—"

As he spoke, he covered Gao's hand in the palm of his hand and warmed her.

Gao is an extremely gentle woman, seeing Song Hong in front of a room of girls and mothers-in-law, she couldn't help but blush, and glanced at Song Hong with disgust, but the tenderness in her eyes was like water, where could she see the anger, she only saw the affection: "It's cold this day, and it's weird to be in the house every day, just come out to breathe, where is my body so weak?" It's Grandpa Guo, in this weather, does that leg still hurt? In the past few days, I have found a new medicinal diet recipe and made it new in the kitchen, has Grandpa Guo tried it? ”

Every word is concerned about Song Hong's body.
