Chapter 558: Battle
Xie Yuanniang didn't know what the effect of the letter she went to would be, but the report of the battle in the northwest came to Jinling a few days later, and when she heard that there was a war there, she didn't have the heart to look forward to replying to the letter, but asked Jiang Yi to inquire about the situation of the war there.
Now that her belly is already very big, before the end of this year, seeing that the weather is getting cooler, after Mrs. Gu heard this, she naturally comforted her first, so that she didn't have to worry about it.
Xie Yuanniang was really not worried in her heart, she knew that this battle would definitely be won, and the little uncle would also return victorious.
Xie Yuanniang's appetite is getting bigger and bigger, and a meal will always be the amount of three people, and Old Madam Gu is relieved when she sees it.
Entering November, the first snow fell in Jinling, and after Xie Yuanniang got up early that day, she first heard the news from outside from Hanxue, and couldn't help laughing.
"You mean you're going to find Doctor Lu again?"
"It's not, since the county king's mansion drove people away, the county lord of Nanrong has been coughing at first, and then after listening to Doctor Lu's words, eating vegetarian food really helped, but the county lord of Nanrong ate meat greedily, so he committed it again, but if he did it according to Doctor Lu's words, he didn't use it." While helping the master pick out jewelry, Han Xue said that the people in the city were talking in private, "Jiahou Mansion has been asking people to go to the Junwang Mansion to ask for explanations." ”
The matter of the county lord of Nanrong has been troublesome for three months, but there is still fun from time to time.
The Junwang Mansion and the Jiahou Mansion are now making trouble like enemies.
Every day in the cold and snow, I can ask about some interesting things and come back.
After talking about the county lord of Nanrong, Han Xue suddenly smiled mysteriously, "Girl, do you guess what news the slave heard today?" ”
She is selling guanzi here, Xie Yuanniang wants to cooperate, but she really can't think of what it is, so she shook her head, "I have a big belly and I don't leave the house, where can I guess what's going on?" ”
Han Xue cracked the corners of her mouth and smiled, "It's the second master who is coming back, I heard that he won the battle, and he is almost in Jinling." ”
Xie Yuanniang was taken aback, "You're already back?" How did you send the message back? Why didn't you see Jiang Yi say it before? ”
"The slave and maid don't know, so it's better to call Manager Jiang in and ask."
Seeing the girl nodding, Han Xue immediately went out, and Jiang Yi came in to reply after a while, and Han Xue had already told him the reason for calling him over on the way here, so after seeing the ceremony, he replied directly.
"The second master didn't send news to his subordinates, and his subordinates only heard the news this morning."
Xie Yuanniang was a little unconvinced, but thinking that Jiang Yi was not a liar, the joy on her face was replaced by doubt, "This doesn't sound right." ”
There are always bad feelings.
Jiang Yi persuaded on the side, "The second lady doesn't have to worry, after the subordinates heard the news this morning, they have already asked people to inquire, the second master and they should enter the city tomorrow, and the second master will come back early." ”
Xie Yuanniang nodded, and just as she was about to let Jiang Yi go down, she thought of something, "Did Mrs. Tong come back together?" ”
Jiang Yi was slightly stunned and didn't want to answer, but he could only stubbornly say, "The subordinates inquired that Mrs. Tong came back with the second master." ”
"Okay, I got it." Xie Yuanniang waved him down.
Han Xue originally wanted to take this as a surprise and tell the girl, how did she know that it would become like this now, "Girl, what is important about the second master." ”
Xie Yuanniang pursed her lips and smiled, "Silly girl, your girl is really such a person who can't think about it?" Okay, breakfast is ready, right? I'm hungry. ”
Han Xue was not unhappy when she saw the girl, so she helped someone to go outside, and the drunken winter and Ling Mei had already set the meal outside, and were about to come in to call someone, when they saw the girl come out, they immediately came to help.
Xie Yuanniang saw that there was a meat bun that she liked to eat, so she picked it up and ate it in small bites, "Hasn't there been any news from the eldest lady's side in the past few days?" ”
It turned out that half a month ago, the Jiang family said that the ancestor of the Jiang family was not in good health, and the Jiang family had never left the Gu Mansion over the years, let alone returned to his parents' house, and now he only went back after hearing the news.
"No news yet." Ling Mei put the white porridge next to the girl, "The old lady heard that she also asked the grandmother next to her to go to Jiangfu, and she should come back in the next few days." ”
Xie Yuanniang nodded lightly, while eating four buns before putting down the chopsticks, slowly drinking the porridge, since her belly got bigger, her mother-in-law didn't let her go, most of them were mother-in-law over, and the whole house protected her.
Xie Yuanniang didn't let people tell her mother-in-law that the second master was coming back, she was afraid that the old lady would be worried again, so she came over to comfort her, so she suppressed the news.
On the contrary, Gu Tingzhi was the first to know and found her here, "You don't know about my second uncle's return?" ”
Xie Yuanniang leaned forward on the soft couch, stroking her stomach with one hand and holding a book with the other, and when she saw Gu Tingzhi who broke in like this, she frowned slightly.
Putting down the book in her hand, she looked at him, "You are your aunt, an elder." Do you want someone to tell me first? ”
Since the last time she knew that Gu Tingzhi had someone make a barbecue, Xie Yuanniang has been staying in the courtyard peacefully, not going anywhere, understanding her heart, she doesn't want to talk to Gu Tingzhi about anything in her previous life.
"Xie Er, what time is it now? Do you still have any scruples about this? Do you know what it means if the second uncle doesn't send the news back? ”
Gu Tingzhi said so seriously, and Xie Yuanniang had a bad premonition before, she looked at Gu Tingzhi silently.
"The second uncle won the battle, and it stands to reason that he wants to come back with great fanfare, why did he come back without any news? Don't you think that's wrong in the first place? ”
Xie Yuanniang didn't like his tone of teaching, but he was right, he still nodded.
Half-loud, Xie Yuanniang saw that he didn't speak, and was a little annoyed, "You just want to say this?" ”
Gu Tingzhi was asked.
Of course he didn't want to say this, he wanted to ask her if she knew why the second uncle did this, but seeing that she was confused, what else did he ask?
Xie Yuanniang also saw it, "So in other words, you don't know why your second uncle did this, you came to me to inquire, and then questioned me first, right?" “
"Don't mess around."
That's it, in his previous life, he was always like this, he was not wrong, and she was always willful.
Xie Yuanniang took a deep breath, "I know, you can go out, next time you come in, let people report first, don't let people spread the word that the eldest son of the Gu Mansion has no rules." ”
"Xie Er."
Xie Yuanniang didn't wait to speak, but heard a scolding, "Presumptuous, I'm not in the house, you are talking to your little aunt like this?" ”
Xie Yuanniang was slightly stunned, and looked at the person standing at the door in astonishment.
