Mrs. Qi was stunned, she understood the status of her sister-in-law in the hearts of her in-laws and her husband's three brothers, and she still couldn't let go of her sister-in-law's death, and she regretted the disappearance of her niece.

"Can you match the age?" Mrs. Qi asked, over the years, the Qi family has never broken the idea of looking for a niece, otherwise the husband would not have come to Jinling to be an official.

Qi Shuyuan nodded, "The age is right." Li Rong's sister's experience is also quite bizarre, but she just wants to confirm that she can't just rely on her age and appearance. But I wonder if my cousin has any other characteristics? Do you have any clothes that you used back then, something that can prove your identity? ”

Hearing her daughter's words, Mrs. Qi was very pleased, "It's rare that you can think so much, you don't know, but I know." Your grandmother often talked to me, especially because she looked like your aunt, and she often said that the child might look like you when he grew up. Your grandmother loves you a lot, probably putting your cousin's love on you. What if it's really your cousin, your grandmother loves your cousin, and she doesn't love you anymore, and you're willing to get your cousin back? ”

Qi Shuyuan nodded without hesitation, her eyes were clear, "Mother, of course I do." My grandmother has been partial to me for more than ten years, and I know that my grandmother misses my cousin, and I have been thinking about my cousin in my heart, so of course I want to find my cousin and make my grandmother happy. ”

Mrs. Qi touched Qi Shuyuan's head and smiled, "My family Shuyuan has a kind heart, and your grandmother didn't hurt you in vain." I know about this, and your father was also in charge of looking for it back then. I'll tell him when your father returns. This matter is in a hurry, it is better to have a clue than no clue. In addition, Mrs. Drey will return the same way with her adopted daughter, so let's wait. ”

Qi Shuyuan nodded, "What my mother said is that I remembered it." ”

When the prefect of Qi came back from the yamen in the evening, he changed into civilian clothes, took a cup of tea from his wife, drank a few sips and put it on the table, and said with a smile: "It's still the tea made by the lady." ”

"It's all the same water, the same tea, how delicious is it?" Mrs. Qi said angrily, and she was quite happy with her husband's love words when he opened his mouth.

"The same water, the same tea, but the people who make the tea are different!" Qi Zhifu smiled and looked at his wife, "When I first entered the door, the next person said that you had something to do with me." ”

Mrs. Qi nodded, "Things have to start with Shuyuan......

When the Qi prefect heard this, he immediately stood up, "Xuan Xuan envoy Zhang Zhihe?" I'm going to ask for the details! ”

Mrs. Qi stood up and stopped, "Husband, I know you're in a hurry, but it's curfew now." Mr. Zhang lives in another square, and you can't get by! ”

Hearing this, the Qi Governor's Mansion reacted at this time, it was getting late, "Yes, I forgot." I can only ask again tomorrow. By the way, is Lady Dre the woman who contributed high-yield crops to His Majesty? ”

Mrs. Qi replied, "Yes, husband." Mrs. Derui's name is Liu Paner, and her husband Li Yuanqing is on duty under General Zhao in the northwest, and now she is now General Sipin Zhenwei. ”

Qi Governor's eyes lit up, "Li Yuanqing? I know this person, some time ago I corresponded with my eldest brother, and I also talked about Gu Shao in the middle of the court and Li Yuanqing in the northwest, who are both literate and martial, young and talented, and really radiant, eclipsing young people of the same age. Now he is deeply favored by His Majesty, and he will certainly have a bright future in the future. ”

Mrs. Qi said with a smile: "Shuyuan learned from the Zhang family girl that Miss Li Rong was well taken care of, not only literate, but also talked to a certain extent, and was also very shrewd. Even if it's not our niece, I want to commend Mrs. Drey for raising the child well. ”

Governor Qi walked around the house, "Whether it is or not, early tomorrow morning, you will immediately send guards and a few grandmothers to chase them all the way, pick them up, and check the birthmark on the girl's body." As for me, I'm going to ask Master Zhang about it. ”

"Husband, by all means." Bully people to block it, for fear that her husband will do things foolishly when she is in a hurry.

"Why not?" Qi Zhifu was stunned for a moment, "That's my niece, in case, my mother and the three of us brothers can also be comforted a little, and we can also comfort my sister's spirit in the sky." ”

Mrs. Qi said gently: "Husband, don't do it! If the other party is just an ordinary merchant, there may be nothing wrong with you doing this, but it is Mrs. Drey. I'll send a few servants, do you think it's appropriate? not only snubbed Miss Li Rong, but also abruptly surprised Mrs. Drey. Now that I have a clue, I will take Shuyuan early tomorrow morning to go to Yangzhou on the pretext of going to Yangzhou Daming Temple to incense. ”

The prefect of Qi scratched his head, he didn't have anything important to do, he couldn't leave Jinling, after all, he was the prefect of Jinling, "But what do I want to do too?" ”

Mrs. Qi shook her head, "Husband's official business is important, leave this matter to me and Shuyuan, and send more guards to follow us." If you can't rest assured, tell me about the situation again. What kind of clothes were you wearing at that time, not only on the outside, but also on the inside, and what other features were there? ”

Hearing his wife's reassuring words, the prefect of Qi gradually calmed down, recalled carefully, and told Mrs. Qi one by one.

Mrs. Qi wrote it down, and early the next morning, she separated from the soldiers of the Qi prefect's mansion. Mrs. Qi took her daughter Qi Shuyuan to Yangzhou to find Liu Paner. Lord Qi went to the yamen to find Lord Zhang, and asked about the situation when Li Rong was rescued, the clothes he was wearing, and so on.

When Mr. Zhang came to the yamen in the morning, he was surprised to hear that the prefect was looking for him.

After hearing Lord Qi's question, Lord Zhang was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "Lord Qi, do you suspect that Miss Li Rong is your niece and the eldest lady of the Marquis of Jinling?" ”

Master Qi nodded, his eyes nervous, "They look alike, and they are about the same age." Although I don't know how to get from Jinling to Montenegro, which is thousands of miles away, this is also a clue. The father and mother in the capital were sad because of the early death of their sister, and they felt guilty because they did not protect their niece. ”

Mr. Zhang carefully recalled, "At that time, the child was very dirty and torn, but the fabric was good, not like an ordinary child. The child hurts his head and doesn't remember who he is. Seriously injured, the Yuanqing brothers sent the child to the hospital, but they didn't expect to be saved. At that time, it was not too far from the home of the Yuan Qing brothers, and it took three days to send them home. However, with the caution of the Yuanqing brothers, the clothes on the child's body, even if they are torn, should be retained. Broken! ”

Qi Zhifu was stunned for a moment, and sighed in his heart, "What's wrong?" Master Zhang, what do you think of? ”

Master Zhang's face was embarrassed, "Brother Yuanqing's hometown Yuyang Mansion was a disaster the year before last, and there was no harvest of grains, and there was no snow or rain last spring, so it could not be planted. The wife of the Yuanqing brothers, Mrs. Derui, fled with their children, and anything could happen on the way to escape. What if those childhood clothes are gone? ”
