The Wu family personally sent Banniang back to the hospital, and carefully checked the furnishings in her house, and saw that there was nothing missing, which made Dongbai lead the little maid to serve in the morning of the house, and went back to the main courtyard by himself.

Although Banniang was indeed a little tired, after washing, she still went to worship her father's incense case and offered incense, and then went back, originally planning to take a good rest, but Wu Sanniang came over. After talking for a while, he gave Dong Bai a look, and when Dong Bai led the maids out, Wu Sanniang said, "Liu Rushui, do you remember?" ”

The person in Brother Seventeen's heart, how could she not remember?

At that time, the whole Jiangnan Road was a famous courtesan.

But since she went into hiding, she hasn't heard from her again.

"Why did the fifth sister-in-law suddenly think of her?"

"At the end of last year, she helped in our orphanage, and in the autumn she contracted a cold, because she was afraid of passing the illness to the children in the hospital, so she went back to recuperate, who knew that after a month, the maid who served her came to the hospital and said that she died of serious illness."

Banniang was stunned when she heard this.

I can't help but think of the situation when she and Brother Seventeen first got married, she went to the Wu family to pay homage to Master Wu's birthday.

When she left the martial arts house that night, she was in the courtyard, and when Liu Rushui called her, she stood in the courtyard where the moonlight was like water, like a fairy in the moon.

Such a beautiful person.

She's only twenty-three or fourteen years old now, right? In the world of his previous life, he should have just graduated from college, which was the best time in his life.

How would Brother Seventeen feel if he knew that she was dead?

Banniang suddenly felt very, very sad.

"Yes...... When did it happen? ”

"End of October."

At the beginning, Miss Liu admired the seventeenth son of the Lu family, and they all knew about it. It's a pity that he has a thin face. She was also a young lady from an official family, but because her father made a heavy mistake, she was confiscated into a lowly nationality and has been in the dust ever since.

What if you clean yourself again? What if there are many followers? Which serious family would marry a popular prostitute and come back to be a lady in the house?

Wu Sanniang is also familiar with Liu Rushui because she is in charge of the relationship between the orphanage and widowhood. Such a beautiful woman like a cold pool and autumn water, how can it not be heart-wrenching when she dies silently like this?

Banniang sighed. But I secretly wondered if I should write a letter to talk to Brother Seventeen.

But after thinking about it again, she didn't believe that Lu Qiqi really could really ignore Liu Rushui's affairs. It's been nearly two months, and he should have gotten the news a long time ago.

It wasn't until the evening that Liuniang came home: "I knew that you were back, and I couldn't wait to fly back to see you, but there were some problems with a batch of materials, and I dealt with it in the workshop before I came back." ”

Another narration between the sisters. Speaking of Qi Niang again, Ba Niang's feelings for Qi Niang are different. Qi Niang is the first person she saw in this world, and she is also the person who takes care of herself in her most terrifying and helpless days. If there is no gentle Qi Niang, Ban Niang doubts that she can survive the most difficult days for herself at the beginning.

Qi Niang also often writes to her, knowing that she is doing well in the Wang family, and Ba Niang is not very worried, but when she thinks that it is almost the New Year, Qi Niang is a daughter-in-law, so it is naturally not good to rush back to her parents' house at this time, it is Liu Niang, it is estimated that she will have to go back to Nancheng in the next few days. There is no reason to live in her mother's house for the New Year, she is the long house and the daughter-in-law, and a large family has to take care of it, if there is no workshop to take care of, how can she go back to her mother's house from time to time to live?

Liuniang didn't know the impact of Liu Rushui's death on Banniang, and thought she was not very happy, because she had to rush back to the capital after the year, and she couldn't see the relationship between Qi Niang, so she smiled and said: "Although we are all in the filial piety period now, there are many old ones in Linchuan, and there are many clansmen who also live in Linchuan, and Linchuan is not far away, I think if you really want to see Qi Niang, why don't you talk to the second brother, wouldn't it be better to go to Linchuan a year ago?" ”

Banniang thought about it.

Who knows that the bad news is not only the news of Liu Rushui's death. A few days later, Zeng Zigu and Zeng Ziye came home from the countryside grange, Banniang's joy had not passed, and he was about to talk to Zeng Zigu about going to Linchuan to see Qi Niang, when Zeng Zigu called him to the study: "Northern Liao defeated the Song army. Di Yong was sent to lead the army to lure the enemy into battle, but he lost his trace. There is no news yet. ”

This news is like a bolt from the blue for Banniang.

The news was transmitted back to the capital from the border pass, and then from the capital to Nanfeng. In other words, this was at least a month ago.

She had never hated herself so much as she did at this moment, if she didn't go back to Quanzhou, if she didn't go back to Nanfeng, if she was in Beijing at this time, maybe she could get some more useful news. Maybe I can help a little bit. No, she couldn't actually help with anything. Can......

Di Jia, Di Qing, what is the fate of his descendants?

Banniang suddenly seemed to have grabbed something, and grabbed Zeng Zigu's hand: "Second brother, did the seventeenth brother write you a letter?" ”

If this news was handed to Zeng Zigu by Lu Qiqi, why did Lu Qiqi write a letter to Brother Tenth instead of himself?

In other words, in fact, Di Yong is more than lucky? And Lu Qiqi knew the ending of the Di family? So, would you rather write a letter to your second brother than write it to yourself?

No, it won't.

Banniang shook her head. The Great Song of the Chai family and the Great Song of the Zhao family are different.

No one's fate will be exactly the same as the history they know. Even if she was the Great Song Dynasty in the history of her previous life, the people of the Di family really did not die well, and in this life, it will definitely not be the same.

"The letter was written by Seventeen Lang, and I just received it. In the letter, he said that although there was no news yet, Di Yong should be fine. Don't worry too much. ”

At this time, Banniang didn't hear anything wrong with Zeng Zigu's words. The matter between her and Di Yong has never been said on the surface, how could Zeng Zigu say anything that made her not worry too much.

Hearing that he said that the letter was really written by Lu Seventeen, Banniang's heart really fell into the ice cave.

"Second brother, I want to go back to the capital."

Winters in Nanfeng are not cold, and there are few times when you see snow. But now the farther north you go, the more cold it gets. It is not easy to walk by water, but if you go by land, people will suffer again. And in recent years, it has been closed, and the road is extremely inconvenient, how many inns have been closed, and she is a girl's family. How could you let her go alone?

"Nope." Zeng Zigu didn't want to blame, and when he saw her lost soul, he couldn't bear it in his heart, sighed, and persuaded softly, "It's almost closed in recent years, so it's not the time to let you go back to the capital with Cang'er, right?" I was supposed to be at home to keep filial piety for my father, if you really insist on going back to the capital before the year, then let the second brother accompany you? You entered Beijing alone, and it was quite difficult along the way, so how can our family rest assured? ”

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. Over the years, the second brother has never been less slandered. At that time, the reason why the fourth brother was left in the capital to take care of them, and the reason why the second brother returned to Nanfeng with the eldest brother was not because of the reason why the mouth of Youyou was blocked. If the second brother doesn't keep filial piety for his father in Nanfeng at this time, I don't know how many gossips will come out at that time.

Banniang was silent for a moment and shook her head.

Zeng Zigu sighed: "I wrote a letter to the teacher to inquire. Master Di is a privy envoy, and he will never watch his son die. I'll write another letter asking Shiro to go to Di's house to meet with Master Di, and maybe I'll have some news. ”

"I want to write a letter to King Yijun, and I also ask the second brother to send it to the post station."

Chai 19 and Di Yong are like brothers, if Di Yong really has something, he must be the first person to figure out the inside story.

It's just that Chai Nineteen is not an ordinary courtier, his identity is special, Di Yong went deep to lure the enemy but disappeared, it is sensitive, even if Chai Nineteen really found out the inside story, it is unknown whether he will say it.

What's more, if Chai Shijiu really has something to say, with his relationship with Banniang, how could there not be a letter?

What's more, now there is news of Di Yong's defection to the enemy in the capital.

Although Zeng Zigu thought of this, he didn't want to make Banniang sad anymore, and the rumors about Di Yong's defection to the enemy couldn't be mentioned. I just nodded.

The days of waiting are the hardest.

Not to mention how Banniang is, it was not surprising when Chai Shijiu received Banniang's letter. Thinking about the letter he asked Lu Seventeen to give to Mr. Zigu, the content of which was obviously not revealed to Banniang.

That's fine.

She's a woman after all.

But how to reply to the letter made him very difficult. Mr. Zigu didn't tell the truth, there are some things that he can only hide from him, in fact, even if he asked Lu Changqing to write a letter to Mr. Zigu, what he said is just news that everyone in the capital knows.

can reply to Banniang, but he can't talk about it in such a general way. Ah Yong's life and death are unknown now, and the relationship between the two of them is best known.

was frowning in the study, Princess Liu of Yijun came in with a bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup: "The king of the county has always been frowning recently, and he is getting thinner and thinner, this is the soup that the concubine specially stewed for the king of the county, and the king of the county also eats some." ”

Chai Shijiu raised his eyebrows and took it with a smile: "These days have made you hard." ”

Liu shook his head with a smile: "You and I are one, what kind of hard work?" Besides, the county king is worried, and the concubine can't really help. It's ......."

Speaking of which, Liu's paused.

Chai Shijiu raised his head and asked, "What do you have to say directly, what is there to talk about with me?" ”

"The concubine body thinks that the county king is also concerned about chaos. The king of the county and Di Erlang have known each other for more than ten years, can you dare not know his character? This time, the boss is Lord Wen, and Lord Wen has made meritorious contributions for generations, although because of Di Xiang, the official family has been a little estranged from the Wen family in recent years, and the Wen family will not easily let Di Erlang go to death because of this. What's more, the official family regards Di Erlang as his own son and nephew, and Di Erlang is still the county master of the Funing Palace. No matter what, Wen Shuai will not let Di Erlang get into danger easily. To put it mildly, Di Erlang's marriage contract with Qinghe will not be removed, it is Brother Minjun, I am afraid that I will not look at Di Erlang's death. Moreover, Di Erlang is the son of Di Xiang, and his skills are only afraid that you and I will be side by side, and he may not be his opponent, although he is in the chaos of the army, according to the concubine, he also has enough self-protection ability. As for what to throw himself into, with the Di family here, Erlang's defection to the enemy can only be nonsense. How can the officials not see this clearly? The reason why the official family has never expressed their position in the early dynasty, the concubine feels that it is also because the war is still unclear, and Wen Shuai has never said a word about Di Erlang's affairs. ”

"What do you think we should do now?"

"Di Xiang is calm, and Mrs. Di has been closed for a few days, so why should we mess up?" Liu smiled and handed the bowl that Chai Shijiu had put down to him again, "Just one word, that's it." ”
