Song Si didn't believe it, but he didn't force him to ask when he looked at Song Wanyue who didn't want to say it. Yue'er naturally had her reasons for doing this, and she would say it when she could.

"What are you going to let your elder brother do?"

Seeing that he did not continue to ask, Song Wanyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The reason why she said it in front of Xiao Yao was that she wanted to tell Duke Ding through Xiao Yao's mouth.

"If Ang Lee figured out and wanted to quit the work department, my elder brother would have to help."

After her words, Song Si understood what she said and nodded, "I understand."

It was getting dark and the two returned to Xu's mansion. When they saw the old man, Song Wanyue told him about persuading Ang Lee to resign from the Ministry of Works, and said that Ang Lee had really figured it out and Song Si would help.

The old man nodded, "In view of Ang Lee's current situation, he really cannot continue to stay in the Ministry of Works, but even if he leaves the capital and returns to Ang Lee's hometown, they will still be found."

Officials in the court all recorded it, and you can tell where Ang Lee's hometown is once you check it.

"I have already thought about it. If Ang Lee really wants to quit his job, let them go to Jiangnan. I will prepare a letter to my uncle and grandfather and ask him to help arrange it."

The old man stroked his beard and nodded, "You are really considerate. In this way, after dinner, I will go to Nancheng in person to meet Ang Lee."

After living in the Xu Mansion for so many years, Ang Lee respects him very much. When he comes forward, Ang Lee will resign from the work department even if he is reluctant to leave.

Song Wanyue stopped him, "If you come forward and Ang Lee agrees, you will inevitably complain in the future. No matter how bad you are in the Ministry of Works, you will still receive the salary from the court. Only when he figures out this matter himself will he have no regrets."

"Listen to you."

The old man now obeys Song Wanyue's words without any hindrance. No matter what Song Wanyue says, he agrees.

Xu Liang came in and said the food was ready.

Several people got up and went to the dining room.

Mr. Second Family has also come here.

The old gentleman, Meng, the second gentleman, Xu Yan and his wife sat at a table, Xu Feng, Xu Hui, Xu Rui, and Song Wanyue sat at a table.

After the family was having a lively meal, they asked the servants to clean up, put on tea, and then said something for another hour before they dispersed.

Song Si and Song Wanyue followed Xu and Song Lin to their courtyard.

"Your uncle and I are going to visit Dingguo Duke's Mansion tomorrow to discuss your marriage with Miss Xiao. If you can take leave, please accompany us."

Although Xu has been in Beijing for so many years, she was an unmarried girl at that time and had never experienced the discussion on getting married in Beijing. She did not rest after she arrived today. She pulled Madam Wu and asked in detail for several hours, but she still felt unsure.

Song Siying came.

The next morning, I went to the Ministry of Revenue to file a leave, took a carriage to buy gifts, and then went to Xu's mansion to pick up Xu, Song Lin and Song Wanyue, and came to Duke Dingguo.

Duke Ding learned from Xiao Yao yesterday that someone from the Song family would come today. He asked his servants to clean the inside and outside the mansion early in the morning and ordered the mansion to open the door and let Xiao Zheng and his wife wait in the mansion.

When the carriage arrived at the gate of the Duke Dingguo Mansion, the housekeeper sent someone in to report, and greeted him with a smile, saluted the few people, and led them in.

As soon as the cross-border threshold was crossing, Xiao Zheng and his wife came out and took them to the flower hall to sit down.

The maid stepped down after serving tea.

Xu was full of apology, "We were not thinking carefully. We wanted to let Miss Xiao stay with you for a while before setting the wedding date at the end of the year. Later, after my grandfather reminded me, I realized that he would be very busy at the end of the year. After the family discussed it, they thought about getting the wedding date ahead of time. Please forgive me."

Mrs. Xiao Zheng is now very satisfied with Song Si, and she long wished they would get married as soon as possible. He smiled and waved her hand, "Don't be so polite in the family, sister-in-law, we didn't consider it. Si'er is really busy by the end of the year. October is just right. I don't know if you ask the master to forget which day it will be?"

"not yet."

Xu replied with a smile that the countryside should pay attention to a good day when getting married. Generally, a good day will be calculated before the two get married. Grandma Song thought that there were many rules for the people in the capital, so she asked Xu to come here to calculate.

"I plan to go to Qianshan Temple tomorrow and let the masters there calculate a good day."

Qianshan Temple?

Song Wanyue's heart moved and looked at Xiao Zheng and his wife without a trace. If he remembered correctly, their son Xiao Gan would be there.

Sure enough, when he heard her going to Qianshan Temple, Mrs. Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "The masters there are really good."

Song Wanyue suddenly said, "Then it's better to hit the sun. The weather is good today, let's go there together."

"this……"

Mrs. Xiao Zheng looked at Xiao Zheng, and they hadn't seen their son for a long time.

Xiao Zheng said readily, "Okay, I'll send someone to tell my parents and see if they want to go too."

Xiao Zheng sent someone to ask.

Duke Dingguo didn't want to go, but Duke Dingguo's wife wanted to go, "Master, I dreamed of Xiao'er again last night. He was lying on the ground covered in blood. I still feel uncomfortable. I have to go to the temple to find a master to help her salvation."

Duke Ding could not tell her that Xiao'er was not dead, so he could only respond.

Half an hour later, a group of people left the city in carriages.

Twenty miles from the capital, Qianshan Temple is a large temple with a history of hundreds of years. The temple is full of incense and people come to it. There are all kinds of people who want to ask for anything.

The carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain, and the group got off the carriage, left the servants to guard it, and walked up the mountain.

Xiao Gan has been recuperating here since he was very young. He has been there for more than ten years. The Duke of Dingguo and his wife and Xiao Zheng and his wife come every month, and the little novice monk at the entrance of the temple had long recognized them.

Seeing them coming up, he quickly came up, "Master Xiao, you are here."

Duke Dingguo nodded, "Is Master Jingfan here?"

"exist."

"Please lead the way."

The little novice monk glanced at the group behind him.

Dingguo Gong knew it and turned around and said, "Yao'er, take Yue'er and Si'er to see your brother."

Xiao Yao responded.

After entering the temple, he took Song Wanyue's hand and turned a corner, walked back, and said to the two of them as he walked, "Because of being sick, my little brother is happy and his room is at the end."

The two followed her.

A servant was waiting in front of a simple room. When he raised his eyes, he saw Xiao Yao. His eyes lit up and his steps came quickly, "Miss, you are here."

"Where is my little brother?"

"The young master is inside the house. He caught a cold last night and did not go out today."

When Xiao Gan caught a cold, Xiao Yao pulled Song Wanyue to speed up, "How is he doing now?"

"The young master said it's okay, he just needs to drink more hot water."

Xiao Yao quickly walked to the door and opened the door. The strong smell of medicine drifted out.

Song Wanyue frowned.
