In the evening, the English duke came on horseback with a small servant.

The two families are good friends, and the British Duke often comes and goes in Du Mansion, and he only thinks that this is an ordinary meal.

Du Wei set up wine and food in the gazebo in the back garden, and the servant brought in the British duke.

The British Duke is about forty years old, although he is in the barracks all the year round, he has an elegant style, and his appearance is fifty or sixty percent similar to Jiang Youzhi, especially the pair of willow eyes, which are almost identical.

The British Duke entered the pavilion, and when he saw the dishes on the table, he nodded and smiled: "I just want to eat the dishes made by Mrs. Sister-in-law, this spicy rabbit is Mrs. Sister-in-law's craft, today is really a blessing." ”

Du Wei grinned and pulled him to sit down and poured the wine first.

While the two were drinking, they were messing around.

Du Wei poured wine very diligently today, and Jiang Zhongxing guarded against no one and would not guard against him, so he drank it openly without any scruples.

Du Wei saw that Jiang Zhongxing's eyes were drunk and hazy, and his speech was a little vague, so he asked tentatively: "Zhongxing, eighteen years ago, why did you separate from your younger siblings?" ”

Before Jiang Zhongxing came over, he had pondered for a long time and decided to start with this matter.

Jiang Zhongxing was stunned for a moment, it had been a long time since anyone had mentioned that woman in front of him.

Although he was a little drunk, his mind was still clear, and he shook his head, "It's been so many years, why bother mentioning those again." ”

Du Wei said: "Why don't you mention it?!" ”

"At that time, that is, I didn't know you well, if I was there at that time, I would definitely solve the misunderstanding between you and your younger siblings."

Jiang Zhongxing shook his head, "How do you know it's a misunderstanding?" ”

"I was wrong about this, and she's so stubborn that we've gotten to this point."

"If you still want to reconcile with your brother and sister, you have to tell me, maybe I can find a way." ”

Jiang Zhongxing hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Back then, not long after I married her, she became pregnant. ”

Du Wei was shocked when he heard this, and listened more and more attentively.

Because Jiang Zhongxing has only one concubine in the mansion, and there are no other children.

What about the pregnant child?

"One day when I entered the palace to face the saint, the emperor asked a group of new women from Jiangnan to perform songs and dances, maybe I looked at it a few more times, and when I left, the emperor gave me one of the most beautiful women."

"I couldn't refuse, so I had to take the woman home."

"When I went home and saw the woman from afar, I sent a fire and asked me to drive the woman away, I said that it was given by the emperor, and I couldn't drive it away, otherwise it would be a slap in the face of the emperor."

"It's good to say, I finally persuaded her."

"Who knew that not long after, I accidentally had a head and tail with that woman, but I was called Yaoyao to know."

"Yaoyao had a big fight with me, so I simply hid in the barracks outside the city, thinking that I would go back when she was angry."

"After staying in the barracks for a few days, I went back home and learned that Yao Yao had gone back to her parents' house!"

Du Wei couldn't help but interject, "I remember that my younger sibling's maiden home is in southern Xinjiang-"

Du Wei smiled bitterly and nodded, "Yes, you also know that her father is a general who guards the southern frontier." ”

"I hurriedly rode out of Beijing on a fast horse, and caught up with Yaoyao at the boundary of Nanzhou Capital, but at this time, everything was too late."

Du Wei frowned, "Brother and sister still refuse to forgive you?" ”

Jiang Zhongxing smiled bitterly, "Not only does she refuse to forgive me, but she also refuses to forgive herself." ”

Du Wei was surprised: "Why is this?" ”
