Chapter 219: Sending a Letter

Haijiao listened to his sister's question, and remembered the situation when he saw the two girls of the Du family.

He heard Huang Zhutou say that the two girls had been taken back to the city, and he wanted to know the situation of the Du family as soon as possible, so he rubbed Huang Zhutou to agree and went to see the two girls.

The two girls had a lot of resentment towards Du Boqin, the old master, but at the same time, they were also very afraid and didn't dare to say too much against him. They didn't expect to go back to the Du family again, but they didn't want to go to another family, what they thought in their hearts was that when the young master came back from the capital, they would go to wait for the young master and follow him to the capital. They firmly believe that the young master will not ignore them.

They know that their status is humble, and the master will not hesitate to deal with them at all, but as long as the young master opens his mouth to intercede for them, the master will not kill them all. Because the young master is the only flesh and blood under the master's knees, what he says, the master will always take to heart.

Haijiao curiously inquired about the situation of Du Qi, the son of the Du family. He thought that this young man should be a proton sent by Du Boqin to the Sun family, just in the name of studying in Beijing, so what did the person think? Will he ignore his biological mother's death for the sake of his father's power?

The two girls have a lot to say to the little master. They have been serving by Du Qi's biological mother's side, and they have watched him grow up, and their words are close. According to them, Du Qi is more afraid of his father, but he is very filial and close to his dead mother and biological mother. From childhood to adulthood, he was basically raised by two mothers. His father rarely asked about his daily life, only cared about his homework and martial arts, and was quite strict with him.

His mother-in-law Zhou would take him with him every time she went back to her parents' house before her death, when he was still young and couldn't tell what his mother-in-law was, the second elder of the Zhou family loved him, and he regarded the second elder as his own grandparents. After his mother-in-law died, he didn't go to Zhou's house for a while, and he gradually realized that he was not the Zhou family's flesh and blood. However, the two old men of the Zhou family were still reluctant to watch Du Qi grow up after all, and soon sent someone to pick him up at home for reunion, and he became close to them again, but he was a lot less willful.

At the beginning, Du Boqin suddenly proposed to send him to Beijing to study with Confucianism, but the two elders of the Zhou family were very opposed. Du Boqin sent Du Qi away directly without telling everyone, and the second elder was annoyed with his son-in-law for a long time, and when he received the letter sent back by his grandson from the capital, he knew that he was doing well in the teacher's house and that his homework had made great progress, so he was angry.

Haijiao listened to the words of the two girls, and speculated that although Du Qi did not have the blood of the Zhou family, he was quite close to the Zhou family, and he was forced to stay away from his relatives when he was a teenager and went to the capital to be a proton. Thinking about his previous life, after Du Boqin continued to be the daughter of his grandchildren, he mercilessly sent Du Qi's mother and son away. Du Qi also had no nostalgia for the father of the high-ranking official eunuch, and simply took his biological mother back to his hometown in Chang'an, which shows that the Du family's father-son relationship is thin.

Du Qi is quite courageous. In his previous life, Du Boqin openly betrayed the Zhou family, attached himself to Sun Gelao, and made the Zhou family so miserable, but his son dared to return to Chang'an, the base camp of the Zhou family, to live. You must know that although the Zhenguo Mansion has lost its position and moved into the capital, there are still a large number of clansmen in the Zhou family who have settled in Chang'an, and many relatives, in-laws and subordinates of the Zhou family are still serving as middle- and lower-level officers in the Northwest Border Army. But Du Qi still chose to come back, which shows that he is not a coward.

Haijiao pondered, in this life, the concubine of the Du family died in vain, and I hope that Du Qi will bring a little surprise to everyone because of the pain of losing his mother. So he asked the two girls for Du Qi's detailed address in the capital, and asked the two girls to dictate, write a letter and send it to the capital.

The two girls couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised when they learned that this kind person from Haijiao was willing to send a letter to the young master for them. They had long wanted to inform the young master, but the old man sent a message, not allowing the young master to know that his aunt was gone, and then sold them, even if they wanted to send a letter to the young master, they didn't know what to do. Although the head catchers of the government were kind, they didn't dare to say too much about their aunt in front of him, and it was really good that outsiders were willing to help.

In the process of dictation, they were very cautious in their words, and refused to disclose the specific cause of their aunt's death, for fear that Huang Zhutou, who was listening, would guess something, but the subject of the letter was still very clear and clear: The aunt died, the funeral ended hastily, and it was impossible for the young master to see his aunt for the last time, but if he didn't go back to Chang'an to mourn, the aunt could only simply enter the ground, and there was not even a serious grave, and the tombstone had never been erected. When the spring of next year begins, the plants and trees germinate, and I am afraid that I will not even be able to find the grave. They really couldn't bear to see their aunt end up like this, so they just begged the young master to go home and be the master.

Of course, they did not forget to mention their current situation. The lord sold them on the grounds that they were not able to wait well and failed to stop their aunt from committing suicide. But they all felt very wronged. Before the aunt hanged herself, she kicked them out of the house. They were not at ease, and wanted to go into the house to ask what was wrong with their aunt, but they were called by the master for questioning. By the time they were released, their aunt was gone. It's not that they don't do their best, they just obey their master's orders! I beg the young master to leave them a way to live for the sake of their loyalty over the years!

Haijiao wrote the letter word for word according to the words of the two girls. After leaving their temporary residence, he said goodbye to Huang Zhutou and planned to find a reliable caravan to deliver the letter.

Now that it has entered Layue, there are very few caravans that are still running around, but if you look carefully, you can't find it. Haijiao has now figured out the situation in Chang'an City, and is quite sure of this.

But before he could find a reliable caravan, he first met the butcher caravan steward who had a relationship before.

The steward seemed to be busy shopping for something, and complained to the acquaintance that the head of the house suddenly wanted to lead a team on a trip, which caught people off guard. He thought that he could stay at home for the New Year this year, but now he has to go to the capital against the wind and snow, although it is a fast horse back and forth, but the time is too tight, I don't know if I can rush back for a reunion dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve, Yunyun.

When the reef passed by, he heard this, so he kept an eye on it, pretended to recognize an acquaintance, and went forward to talk to the steward.

The steward still remembered him and knew that he was a young man who was quite optimistic about the generals of the Zhou family, and his attitude was also quite courteous.

Haijiao only used a few words to let the steward know that he was Uncle Ma's nephew and grandson, and he was also the in-law of the Zhou family, and he was also favored by the Duke of Zhenguo, and the steward suddenly became less taboo when he spoke.

It turned out that after the Tu family had just received the letter from Uncle Ma, he immediately went to the third room of the Zhou family to meet his nephew Zhou Jinpu, and met his ex-brother-in-law Zhou Shigong before leaving.

Haijiao didn't need to ask, he could guess what the head of the Tu family came to Beijing for, and he didn't keep quiet, only paid the trust to the steward, and also increased the postage, so please be sure to hand over the letter to Du Qi in person. He even made Du Qi's identity clear, and the steward blinked, responded, and hurriedly thanked him again and again.

It seems that the Tu family is in charge of entering Beijing, and they are still tasked with finding Du Boqin's son. Now that he has a detailed address and a reason to bring Du Qi back openly, he must be able to save a lot of effort.

If the Zhou family can take the first step to bring Du Boqin's son back to Chang'an, and Du Boqin has no hostages in the hands of the Sun family, I wonder if he will change his attitude?

Haijiao is a little curious, in this life, Du Boqin has not harmed the Zhou family, has not yet been promoted to Beijing, failed to marry the daughter of the Sun family as his wife, and has not given birth to a second son, will he still follow the Sun family all the way to the dark?
