592 Sadness Comes from the Heart (2 more)
"This is a good idea."
Xu Yan agreed, and he also knew that Song Wanyue was eager to go home. Besides, the skeleton of the carriage was placed in the south city, and Yue'er was facing each other every day, and she felt uncomfortable.
The old man also nodded, "If Dingguo Duke is willing to send someone to escort it, it will naturally be good."
As he said that, he was about to get up, "I'll go with Song Si."
Xu Yan stopped him. For so many years, he had never seen his grandfather care about anyone. "You just came back from the Shangshu Mansion, so I'd better go with Song Si."
"I don't want to go either my great-grandfather or uncle. I will go with my elder brother. I haven't visited them since I came to the capital, so I just happened to go there."
The old man told Xu Liang to prepare a gift.
Song Wanyue and Song Si came to the gate of Dingguo Duke's Mansion with carriage. As soon as they got off the carriage, they happened to meet Xiao Yao who came out from inside and wanted to go to Nancheng. Seeing the two of them, she came over happily, "Why are you here?"
After she returned to the mansion, she told her grandfather that Song Si was transferred to the Ministry of Revenue. Her grandfather thought it was a good thing and she didn't have to worry.
Song Wanyue held her arm affectionately, "Come to pay homage to the Duke and the Duke's wife, and ask him for help."
This was the first time Xiao Yao heard someone calling her grandfather the name "Old Man", and pursed her lips and smiled, and took them back to the mansion.
Both Dingguo Duke and Dingguo’s wife came over. When the Duke Duke saw her, he almost couldn’t help but shed tears. He held her hand with sobs and pity, “Girl, it’s hard for you.”
Although she and Xiao'er had a marriage, she was still the same child after all. If she didn't seek justice for Xiao'er, no one would say anything about her. But she rushed into the capital, overthrew the third prince, and aroused the injustice for the Gu family. Xiao'er's spirit in heaven could also rest in peace.
After her words, Duke Ding was afraid that she would say something else and exposed her relationship with Xiao'er, so he hurriedly persuaded, "You can come here with a rare trip, so stop saying these unhappy words."
The wife of Dingguo Duke was awakened by his words and said, "Look at me, I'm so confused. You guys should sit down."
Everyone sat down.
The Duke of Dingguo's wife couldn't help but fall on Song Wanyue.
After not seeing each other for more than a month, Song Wanyue seemed to have grown beautiful again and became more calm, adding a temperament that she couldn't say. If Xiao'er was still alive and married such a wife, her tragically dead daughter would have smiled happily even in the underworld.
Thinking of this, sadness came from her heart and tears fell. She hurriedly lowered her head and took a veil to wipe it.
Song Wanyue saw her movements from the corner of her eyes and pursed her lips.
Duke Ding also saw it and knew that his wife could not help but see Song Wanyue.
He spoke, attracting the attention of Song Wanyue and Song Si. "Yao'er has told me that the emperor has transferred Song Si to the Ministry of Revenue. This is a good thing. You don't have to worry. Even for my sake, the Minister of Revenue will not dare to make things difficult for Song Si."
The Duke of Dingguo Mansion is not scary. After all, there is only one generation of titles, but there is also a concubine Xiao Xian in the palace. Even if the Minister of Revenue wants to make things difficult for Song Si, he has to consider it.
Song Si talked about the old man accompanying him to the Minister of Revenue.
After hearing this, Duke Ding told Song Si, "You must keep this affection in your heart and always remember to repay me. He has never done this for someone."
"Song Si remembers it."
Duke Ding nodded.
The wife of Dingguo Duke had recovered from peace and just said something. Song Si said again, "My little sister and I came here to ask for something about my grandfather."
"explain."
"My little sister is planning to go back tomorrow. We want to ask our grandfather to send a few people to escort her."
"Will you go back tomorrow?"
Song Wanyue nodded, "I want the Gu family to settle in peace as soon as possible."
The Duke Dingguo's wife couldn't help but she fell down again, so she simply stopped hiding her tears with a veil, "I'm so old that I can't listen to such things."
"grandmother……"
Xiao Yao called her worriedly.
The wife of Dingguo Duke waved her hand, "I have nothing to do, I just thought of that child."
After saying that, he looked at Song Wanyue, "I heard that you have pulled all the bones of the Gu family to the capital."
"yes."
"Then...", the wife of the Duke of Dingguo couldn't help it, "Is Gu Yi's bones also there?"
"Here, I personally carried it to Beijing."
The tears of the Duke of Dingguo instantly broke the dike: Xiao'er had such a fiancée, and she was in peace in the underworld.
Duke Dingguo smiled at Song Wanyue with guilt, "My old wife is really old and can't listen to this sad thing. Yao'er will help her grandmother down."
Xiao Yao responded, stood up and walked to the wife of the Duke of Dingguo.
The wife of the Duke of Dingguo was unwilling to leave. When Song Wanyue left, she didn't know when she could see people. "I'm fine, but I'm old and cry a little."
After saying that, he wiped his tears again and looked at Duke Ding, "Is Zheng'er okay these days? Let him take someone to send Yue Yatou back."
After he reminded him, Duke Ding also felt that Xiao Zheng was the most suitable for escort, so he asked his servants to call Xiao Zheng over and asked him to choose a few people to escort Song Wanyue back.
Xiao Zheng responded to the call and went to select people.
When he chose to come back and agreed on the time to set off tomorrow, Song Wanyue and Song Si stood up to say goodbye.
After they left, the wife of Duke Ding could no longer hold back and cried.
Seeing her crying sadly, Duke Ding wanted to tell her that Xiao'er was not dead, but when he said that, he swallowed it back. This matter was of great importance, and the fewer people knew, the better.
"master……"
After crying, the wife of Dingguo Duke choked and said, "I, I want to see Xiao'er's bones."
It is said that the fire burned for several hours and the bones were burned.
"No!", Duke Ding refused firmly, "Your appearance has aroused the suspicion of Yue Yatou."
"So what if you doubt it, Xiao'er has already..."
The wife of the Duke of Dingguo couldn't continue to say anything.
"Xiao'er has passed away. We should consider the living. If you go to Nancheng to see Xiao'er's bones, it will definitely attract others' attention. If it is passed into the emperor's ears and makes him suspicious, our Xiao family will be in danger."
The wife of Dingguo Duke cried bitterly again.
...
Song Wanyue and Song Si stayed in Xu's house for dinner tonight and told everyone about their return tomorrow. When they learned that the Duke of Dingguo sent Xiao Zheng to escort her back, everyone felt relieved.
After dinner, Xu and Song Lin pulled her and told her to be careful on the way, and Song Wanyue responded obediently.
The next day, Xiao Zheng brought his people to Nancheng at the agreed time.
There were two carriages parked at the door, one with bones on it and the other with Song Wanyue.
Song Wanyue walked out of the yard with a package holding a bone. She deliberately said the wrong time last night just to prevent the Xu family from sending it to her.
"Brother, after I leave, you go to the Xu family and say it."
Song Si nodded.
"Uncle Xiao."
Xiao Zheng nodded and said, "Let's go."
