As soon as the old gentleman left the house, the Huo family knew.
She had doubts in her heart, the old gentleman rarely went out unless necessary, not to mention that Song Si was a poor student, and the old gentleman would not let him invite him to dinner, there must be something strange in this.
She sent someone to keep an eye on the door of the house, and when the old gentleman came back, she went to tell her, but the hour passed little by little, and seeing that there were still two quarters of an hour before the curfew, and she had not heard the movement of the old gentleman coming back, she faintly began to feel uneasy.
went to the study to find Mr. Big, "Father said that he was going to eat with Song Si, but he hasn't come back yet, I'm really worried, you go to the gate of the house to have a look." ”
Mr. Big didn't know about this, and when he heard this, he put down the book in his hand and hurriedly came out and waited.
After waiting for two quarters of an hour, he saw the carriage coming slowly, and when the carriage stopped, he took the lantern in the hand of his servant and stepped forward, "Father, where has you gone?" ”
The old gentleman was bowing his head and coming out of the carriage, when he heard his voice and movements, he paused for a moment, then stretched out his hand to Xu Liang, and waited for Xu Liang to help him down before replying, "Song Si invited me to dinner, and after the meal, he instructed him a little, and he didn't pay attention to the time." ”
"If he doesn't know anything, he can come and ask me. If you feel uncomfortable seeing me, you can also go to the second brother, my father is old, and he will try to go out as little as possible in the future. ”
"Got it."
The old gentleman walked up his feet to the house, and the eldest gentleman walked beside him with a lantern, and when he had sent him back to the house, he turned around and went back to his yard.
Huo Shi walked back and forth in the house anxiously, and when he heard footsteps, he hurriedly walked to the door and opened the door, but there was nothing unusual in his voice, "Father is back?" ”
"Hmm."
"That's good, my father didn't drink bar?"
"No, it may be that Song Si really wins his heart, and I see that his spirit is much better."
"Really?"
Huo's uneasiness in his heart became heavier, and he pretended to be puzzled and asked,
"Have any restaurants in the capital been open until this time?"
Mr. Big paused, "Naturally, no, but with my father's status, I would like to tell the restaurant that it will close late." ”
……
Over there, the old gentleman sat in a chair, still very excited.
"Sir, do you want the kitchen to prepare some dishes for you?" Xu Liang asked respectfully.
Today, the old gentleman passed without dinner, and he didn't eat when he got there.
When he asked, the old gentleman felt hungry, and was about to let him go, thinking that he was going to a restaurant to eat, he paused, and ordered, "You ask the kitchen people to heat up the dishes, and then heat a pot of wine, and you accompany me for a drink, by the way, tell the people in the kitchen that no one is allowed to say anything about my drinking, otherwise I will kick them out." ”
Xu Liangying went to the kitchen, only two mothers-in-law guarded, and when he heard that the old gentleman was going to eat and drink, he hurriedly heated the cold dishes and warmed the wine.
"The old gentleman has ordered, don't tell him about drinking, otherwise you won't do it in the house."
The two mothers-in-law repeatedly promised not to say anything.
Xu Liang came over with food and wine, and poured a full glass for the old gentleman before sitting down.
The old gentleman drank it all and put the empty cup on the table, "Xu Liang, I'm really happy today." ”
Wan'er is back, even if he dies now, he has no regrets.
"So you drink a little less, lest you drink too much, and when you go to see Miss Sun tomorrow, she smells and says you."
The old gentleman laughed happily, "Don't say it, she really did it, before, she ......"
……
The Xu family returned home.
Just now, Gu Yi sent Xiao Si back to say that they were going back a little later, so that Grandma Song and the three of them could go to bed early.
But where did they sleep, Grandma Song has been thinking about the marriage, Song Shu and Liu Cuilan are worried about what they will do when they meet their in-laws?
A few people entered the hospital, saw that the lights were still on in the two rooms, and knew that they hadn't slept yet, Song Wanyue gave Song Si a look, a few of them hadn't eaten yet, and they felt a little hungry, but Xu's eyes were red, if they were seen by Grandma Song, they would definitely ask.
Song Si raised his voice at the right time, "Grandma, father, mother, we are back."
The three of them came out of the house, and when they saw that the Xu family had also returned, Grandma Song walked to the kitchen, "There are hot dishes for you in the pot, I'll bring them out." ”
There were no lanterns in the yard, only the faint lights in the two rooms came through, and Grandma Song didn't see Xu's red eyes.
Song Si stopped her, "Grandma, you better go and rest, I'll take it." ”
He also often does it at home, but Grandma Song didn't insist, "Let's go to the hall, I'll go and light the lamp." ”
"No need, go to my house to eat, don't disturb your rest."
Grandma Song waved her hand, "We're fine, it's okay to go to bed early and sleep late." ”
Song Si scratched his head, "That, Miss Xiao may come over tomorrow......"
Before she finished speaking, she slapped Grandma Song, "Why didn't you say it earlier, you stinky boy?" We've got to go to sleep! I'll see my granddaughter-in-law tomorrow when I have enough spirits. When you are full, go to bed early. ”
Song Si and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and when they turned around and went back to the house, Song Si and Gu Yi went to the kitchen to bring out the hot meal, and were about to bring it to Song Wanyue's room, but were stopped by Gu Yi, "Go to the eldest brother's house, I have something to say to you and Yue'er." ”
Xu didn't eat much, and after eating, he went back to the house, and only the three of them were left in the house.
Gu Yi swallowed the food in his mouth, "I think the eldest brother should tell Dingguo Gong about the fact that the eldest aunt is the Xu family." ”
Song Si's action of eating.
Song Wanyue also looked up at him.
"If it was in Qingping County, let alone ten years ago, even if it was a few decades ago, my father could send someone to investigate. But this is the capital, we can't interfere, and the Duke of Dingguo is different, he has manpower, he can help, the sooner this matter is found out, the better. ”
"Another thing is, let's say it first, it's better than the people in the Dingguo Mansion hearing it from elsewhere."
"He's right."
Song Wanyue looked at Song Si, "If the people from the Dingguo Mansion heard it from elsewhere, they would think that we were deliberately concealing it, and maybe they would have a grudge against us, and it would not be good for you and Sister Xiao's future." The eldest brother took the initiative to tell them, explaining that he regarded them as a family, so that the people of the Dingguo Mansion would like you more and would be willing to help us. ”
Song Si nodded, "I'll go tomorrow morning." ”
The next day, after breakfast, Song Si took a carriage to the Dingguo Mansion.
Dingguo Gong just came back from the morning court, his face was tired, today in the main hall, the emperor asked him how to track down the matter of the Qin Palace. Knowing that there was no progress, he scolded him in front of the civil and military officials, and strictly ordered him to find out as soon as possible.
Seeing that he was not in good spirits, Song thought about it and decided to tell him about it, "Grandfather, Song Si has something to tell you." ”
"Say it."
"My eldest aunt is Miss Xu Qingwan, who has been missing from the Xu family for many years."
