Chapter 1252 Chapter 1252
Song Xinglu, I hope he can get what he wants, travel all over the country, and live a happy life.
This is Song Guanzhou's selfish desire.
"You must carry on your father's legacy."
Song Guanzhou waved his hands, "Father, when a person dies, there is nothing left. My parents knew about the Song family after they gave birth to me. They just hope that my brother and I will not bring shame to them. In another fifty years, who will still know the Grand Secretary Song Wenqi? No one."
Ashes to dust, ashes to ashes, life is short, and that's what it means.
Pei Jian wanted to educate his son the same way he had educated his daughter-in-law, but when he saw his pretty daughter-in-law with a limp, he swallowed his scolding.
"Forget it. I can't convince you. But the Song family doesn't have many. I will send someone to look for Xinglu. You two brothers must help each other."
Song Guanzhou stood up and walked Pei Jian to the gate of the courtyard with his crutches. Pei Jian saw that she was lively and active, not like a person with mobility difficulties at all, and he was also infected by her good mood.
"Take good care of your legs. When you are well again, I will send you a pony for your father."
"really?"
Pei Jian was born into a great general family, so the foal he chose must be of the best quality. Song Guanzhou's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"nature."
Pei Jian smiled and said, "It's OK to keep it at home, or keep it at the villa, and go and ride it every few days."
Song Guanzhou was overjoyed, "If she was like Silang's Feibai, I would like her even more."
Now that you've already asked for it, you might as well make a few more requests.
"it is good--"
Pei Jian agreed immediately, "In a year or two, Silang will definitely be sent out to serve as an official. You will have to go with him. If it is a long and remote place with high mountains, riding a horse is better than being bored in a carriage all the way."
Hearing the sound coming from outside, Song Guanzhou felt mixed emotions.
The good thing is that she can visit new places, but the worry is...can she live to see that day?
After sending Pei Jian away, Xu Lingqiao came out of the inner room. Song Guanzhou told her something about Pei Che. Xu Lingqiao was stunned, "You mean... the old lady in this mansion sent someone to chop off the third young master's arm?"
"It's about the same, that's all."
Xu Lingqiao was a little anxious, "This mansion is so dangerous, you..., Guan Zhou, you——"
"I'm fine."
Song Guanzhou comforted Xu Lingqiao, "There is still some time before the results of the imperial examination are announced. If my cousin is to stay in the capital, I think it would be better for you to live in the mansion. Since you live in the mansion, it would be better for you to know more about these things." She knew that Xu Lingqiao could keep her words to herself, and she was not one of those gossipy women who believed everything they heard.
"...What about the old lady in the mansion now?"
Song Guanzhou pointed in the direction of the small Buddhist temple and said, "That's where he's imprisoned. The people from the Xiao family kept silent and didn't mention or ask. I guess that's how he'll be for the rest of his life."
"The old lady has several children, and you won't ask for mercy?"
"What kind of favor are you asking for? I don't know about Second Brother, but it's impossible for Silang. He wasn't raised by her since he was a child. The mother and son are estranged, and several lives have been involved. He can be so indifferent now, which is the greatest filial piety."
Xu Lingqiao breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
"Fortunately, such a mother-in-law doesn't interfere, otherwise, I'm afraid you will still suffer when you watch the boat."
Now that Lianhua was called to serve her, she would more or less mention some things of the past, such as how her several maids who served outside the second gate came to serve her.
Only then did Xu Lingqiao realize that Song Guanzhou's words of comfort to her were not empty and illusory.
Looking back, it was because she had also suffered inhuman torture, but now she was still living a prosperous life. Lianhua also mentioned a few more things, "In the past, the Fourth Master didn't like the Young Madam, and the two of them quarreled all the time, causing the Fourth Master to not enter Shaohua Garden for half a year."
Not to mention a wealthy family like the mansion, even in an ordinary family, if there is a rift between them and they live in separate rooms, how many men would not take a concubine?
Once a concubine comes between the two of them, even the best of couples will have a huge rift between them.
On the other hand, it's just the opposite with my cousin.
"The Fourth Young Master is most concerned about the Young Madam now, so please don't think about the past. Life is hard for everyone. I'm afraid the emperor and his empress in the palace also have unspeakable difficulties. We, the slaves whose lives are worthless, are still trying to survive. You should cheer up."
Xu Lingqiao swallowed down her worries and slowly calmed down the things that had been bothering her since she learned mathematics.
Today, the cousins were sitting together and it was rare for them to talk about these things. She also asked a lot of questions out of curiosity. She just wanted to find out a few things about the young man who came to the mathematics school that day, but she was afraid of exposing her true identity.
After thinking it over, I swallowed it.
When she was sent away by the round-faced young man, she knew that the person who took away her innocence was the young master of the Huang family, but when she returned to the capital again, she did not dare to ask anyone about the name of this family.
I'm afraid that if I'm not careful, I'll get myself dragged into it.
She wanted to forget the pain, but on the day of the mathematics competition, she was frightened to death by the familiar face. She had thought that he was probably an out-of-town student in Longen Academy, and no matter he succeeded or failed after the imperial examination, he would definitely leave the capital city.
But on second thought, I felt that it was not possible.
The young man from the Huang family who let her go was obviously from a wealthy family, and he spoke with an authentic Beijing accent.
Thinking of this, she felt pain again.
She was afraid of being recognized and getting in trouble, and she also knew that night... She often woke up in the middle of the night. One moment, the man was standing in front of the bed in his middle clothes, speaking unkindly, "You were hiding in the mansion. Now that I have found you, I will help you redeem yourself."
Redemption?
Do not!
She was from an innocent family, how could she redeem herself? Qingmei Garden ruined her, and she had finally escaped, how could she be caught again?
In dreams and in reality, the man's figure was like a ghost.
Fortunately, she had put on thick makeup to hide her embarrassment. Enke had been at peace these days, and no strangers came to visit her, so she was relieved. However, she said something wrong and caused the young master of the Qin family to disappear.
Day by day, she lived on thin ice.
Fortunately, her eldest brother came back. With his presence, she gradually calmed down and slept well for two days.
The small banquet was held in the evening. Qi Yue Niang originally wanted to hold it in the courtyard of the prince and his wife, but Xiao Yinxiu swallowed her grievances and shook her head to refuse.
It can't be said that the prince has disappeared for three or five days again?
He could only find an excuse and said to Pei Jian, "Father, this place is quiet and elegant. Besides, there is no reason for an elder to enter the room of a younger generation."
After getting Pei Jian's approval, the plan was put into place.
When Pei An came back from work that night, the concierge called someone to report to Xiao Yinxiu, "Madam, there are four more guests today."
"Four?"
Xiao Yinxiu was slightly stunned. Xu Lingqiao and Song Guanzhou, who came with crutches, had just entered the threshold of Zhengxian Pavilion. The couple from Xiao Bei's family came with Xu Lingbai at this time. They were a little confused when they heard this.
But the servant said, "The prince and the fourth son met several young men from the Qin, Liu, and Huang families on their way back home, and invited them to their home."
Huang family?
Xu Lingqiao suddenly panicked.
