Fan Kang was already indifferent, he didn't eat or drink for three days, and after fainting, he got up and wanted to go again, and was scolded by his father.

Ten days later, Mrs. Fan's nephew Zhuang Zhengtai rushed to the funeral, and Mrs. Fan received her nephew.

Zhuang Zhengtai put on the incense and cried bitterly.

Looking at his nephew, who looked the same as his eldest brother, Mrs. Fan shed tears with him.

He has a lot of affection for the Yue's family, and when he was a child, he studied at the banker's house, and when he didn't say anything about his family, his parents-in-law treated him like a parent. In the dealer for a few years, I got along with my eldest brother.

The banker's style is a good family, there are people who have been rescued by the banker within a hundred miles, for talented students, the poor banker provides food, and the middle lifter gives the road fee to Beijing.

married his daughter to an orphan, and never disliked it. The Fan family took a fancy to the dealer's style so that Mrs. Fan asked to marry the banker's daughter.

After the children of the Zhuang family went home to open the school, they did not stay in Beijing to continue the imperial examination or serve, and Mrs. Fan admired but felt that it was a pity.

There are also officials in the DPRK who have received favors from the bankers, not to mention some officials who serve in various places, but the bankers never contact.

Therefore, Mrs. Fan personally received his nephew and treated Zhuang Zhengtai with special courtesy.

After that, Fan Yuan took the Dafang family to salute his cousin, Zhuang Zhengtai nodded silently, and when Fan Kang's family stepped forward, Zhuang Zhengtai turned sideways.

Mrs. Fan was stunned, somehow.

Zhuang Zhengtai said to Mrs. Fan: "Uncle, I'm in a hurry to go back, I'm sorry." ”

Mrs. Fan is in a hurry, what is the important thing that has to be rushed back in this situation? He hadn't asked his eldest brother how he was doing, why did his nephew leave in a hurry?

There is also the action just now, and the Yue family has stopped interacting with the Fan family for more than ten years, and asked the old wife, saying that there is something in the mother's family and will not go out.

Seeing that his wife has been depressed and unhappy all these years, eating fasting and reciting Buddha, he thinks that there is something fundamentally wrong with the Yue family, and he can't let outsiders know. is a big family, and some things will not be known to the in-laws, so Mrs. Fan didn't care about it anymore.

Zhuang Zhengtai ignored Mrs. Fan's retention, insisted on leaving, walked out of the gate, and got into the carriage.

Mrs. Fan went back to the house to question his son, Fan Yuan didn't know what was going on, and Fan Kang was silent.

After Zhuang Zhengtai went out, he rested in Shili Pavilion, and saw a team of carriages coming, the carriage stopped, and a few people came to sit and rest.

Among them was a middle-aged couple, the man rubbed his wife's legs, and the woman avoided and said, "It's not good for people to see." ”

The man pulled the woman's leg and said, "What are you afraid of, why do I rub my wife's legs?" If you don't come, you have to say come and see Mulan, it's such a long way, your legs are not good, but you won't be offended? ”

The woman smiled and said, "You can see Mulan today, right?" My leg can be better thanks to Mulan, the master, you said that we will bring some dried vegetables when we come to Beijing, will it make people laugh? ”

"No, Mulan isn't that kind of person."

"I didn't say Mulan, I said the Gao family's Meng family."

Zhuang Zhengtai listened on the side, and the more he listened, the more he felt that what they said about Mulan was like a cousin, and his cousin was also kind-hearted.

He deliberately told the driver that he had to go back to Beijing to buy some things to bring back, and then buy some food on the road, because he was afraid that he would not have enough to buy just now.

Then he got into the car and went into the city, and stopped not far from the city gate, and when he saw the caravan coming in, he asked the coachman to follow.

Somehow, in a heartbeat, I felt that I had to follow along, in case it was a cousin, and I couldn't miss it because of negligence.

When he arrived at the door of a house, the man got out of the car and knocked on the door, and the porter opened the door and asked a few words before closing it.

After a while, the door opened, and a young woman walked out, and the woman excitedly stepped forward to hold her.

Zhuang Zhengtai froze. My cousin was like this when she was young, and her smile was exactly the same.

He is five years older than his cousin, and he treats her like a sister, his cousin is gone, he asks around, he has also come to Beijing to look for it, and he has been to Cangzhou, the hometown of a nurse when his cousin was a child, but he has not found it.

However, if it is the cousin's daughter, the cousin will not name her daughter Mulan.

Zhuang Zhengtai found an inn in Beijing to live in, inquired, and learned that the Meng family adopted a foreign adopted daughter a while ago, and promised to marry the Gao family, and there were rumors that the Meng family's adopted daughter was actually an illegitimate daughter, but it was just a rumor, and the Meng family did not clarify the rumors.

He went to Ni's Mansion and asked his followers to knock on the door, saying that he was looking for Ni Sicai, the son of the Ni family, Zhuang Zhengtai wanted to go to Songshankou to inquire about it for half a month, it was too delayed, and the Ni family's reputation was reliable, so he could ask. He didn't know the Gao family, and Le Niangzi was the future husband's family, so it was impossible for him to go to the Gao family to inquire.

When Ni Sicai came out, Zhuang Zhengtai said that it was a friend of his uncle Lang Prefect and a member of the Zhuang family of Hejian Mansion.

Ni Si knew about the dealer, saluted respectfully, and then followed him to a nearby teahouse.

I felt inexplicable, why didn't I look for my father, but came to him, it wasn't that he said that it was the Zhuang family, he looked upright, and he wouldn't go out with him.

Zhuang Zhengtai was afraid that Ni Sicai would misunderstand, and specifically said some situations in the Lang Governor's Mansion, Ni Sicai thanked the Zhuang family, saying that he had heard his uncle mention that the Zhuang family took care of his uncle, and once his uncle was sick and Shi Bo carried him to the hospital.

After being polite, Zhuang Zhengtai said straight to the point: "Nephew, uncle came to you to learn about some information, I heard that you went to Songshankou with the second son of the Gao family last year, and the adopted daughter of Mr. Meng who took you there also came from Songshankou, and then married the Gao family. I would like to ask about the adopted daughter of the Meng family. ”

Ni Sicai stared at Zhuang Zhengtai vigorously, unlike Le Niangzi, not a father, and not like an uncle, when he thought of the Fan family's funeral, it was normal for the Zhuang family to come to Beijing for a funeral, maybe he saw Le Niangzi see something.

Zhuang Zhengtai saw Ni Sicai staring at him, his eyes turned around, and he hurriedly said: "Don't hide it from my nephew, I have a cousin, who disappeared more than ten years ago, and my family has been looking for more than ten years. ”

Ni Sicai suddenly realized and opened his mouth wide.

I understand, the dealer is Fan Kang's uncle's family, that Fan Kang seduced his grandfather's cousin and abandoned it, the cousin left home with a big belly, and gave birth to Le Niangzi and was saved by the master.

Seeing Ni Sicai's expression, Zhuang Zhengtai stared at him motionlessly.

Ni Sicai saw the nervousness, expectation, and excitement in Zhuang Zhengtai's eyes.

He told him about the origin of the Le Niangzi, who was raised by the master in Songshankou.

Zhuang Zhengtai had tears in his eyes, clenched his fists, lowered his head, lowered his fist, and cried silently.

Ni Sicai saw him like this, and tears flowed out, this is blood and family, flesh and blood are connected.

After a long time, Zhuang Zhengtai raised his head, he wiped his tears, and said, "Thank you for telling your nephew, do you know who gave Le Mulan's name?" The master's common surname Le? ”

Ni Sicai replied truthfully: "Le Niangzi was born and her mother was gone, I heard Uncle Liu say that the name was given by the master, as for what the master's common family name is, the little nephew doesn't know." ”

Zhuang Zhengtai wanted to ask Le Niangzi's mother if she had left anything, and wanted to ask him if he probably didn't know.

Thinking about whether his cousin left something, suddenly, Zhuang Zhengtai remembered the Yuefu poetry collection that his cousin took away, could it be that his cousin said his name when he was dying, and the master thought that his cousin was saying that the child's name was Mulan, and because of the poetry collection, he named the child Le Mulan.

Jiao Mulan, called Mulan.

It must be so, otherwise the child would not have the same name as the mother.

Zhuang Zhengtai begged Ni Sicai not to tell others about coming to him, and when someone asked, it was Governor Lang who sent him a message.

Ni Sicai hurriedly assured that Zhuang Zhengtai was sent away, and he ran home quickly and closed the door.

My cat is going to be scared to death, if Le Niangzi is the flesh and blood of the Fan family and the Zhuang family, this matter is a secret, and the Fan family is not guaranteed.

Can the Zhuang family swallow this breath?

Seeing the grief and anger on Shi Bo's face before leaving, will he find the Fan family?

Ah! Do you want to tell Gao Yangrong?

Ah! No one can say anything about the promised Shibo!

Ah! I'm going to die! A cat killed by curiosity!
