Chapter 266 Wei Mansion
At noon, the carriage stopped.
"Young madam, the young master is waiting for you at the city gate." Yan Qian reported outside the carriage.
Hearing this, Fahrenheit in the car opened the curtains and looked out, and saw her husband walking this way.
Niang Niang got off the carriage first. Wei Zizheng was about to get on the carriage when Hua Shi from inside the carriage said, "Husband, there is a female passenger in the carriage."
When Wei Zizheng, who had already raised his feet, heard this, he quickly put his feet back and ordered Wufu to drive into the city. He did not get into the sedan, but walked along the side of the carriage.
The entourage who had followed him earlier had already gone back to report the news.
"Caiying, you must have had a hard time driving all the way." He hadn't seen his wife for a while. He actually wanted to get in the car and have a good look at her. However, if there was a female passenger in the car, then he It's not convenient to get on the bus either.
I don’t know who this female guest is. Does my wife know her?
Wei Zizheng only knew that his wife had a few good friends in the capital. But after Tong'er's accident, those few people often came to the house to talk to her, but she didn't see any of them. As time went by, they He won't come either.
"Fortunately, I wasn't in a hurry. Isn't your husband busy now?" Fahrenheit responded.
Hua Shi's husband, Wei Zizheng, was the censor of the Supervisory Council of the current dynasty. He was an official of the seventh rank. Although his official position was not high, he had important responsibilities and had extensive supervision rights.
These were told by Niang Niang to Hong Xiaoduo.
"No matter how busy I am, my husband will come to pick you up when I find out you are back, not to mention this is a big happy event for our family." Wei Zizheng said, and suddenly realized something was wrong.
Shouldn’t my wife be very excited when she hears the news that Tong’er has been found? Why does her tone sound like she’s not?
Or is she afraid that this time her joy will be in vain, so she doesn’t dare to have any expectations in her heart?
After all, I have experienced something like this several times before.
There was no response from the carriage this time. Wei Zizheng didn't want to ask a few guards now. He just wanted to find out more after returning home.
"Tong'er is waiting in the house. Caiying, don't be too excited when you see her later." After thinking about it, Wei Zizheng finally spoke and warned her.
Excited? When Hua heard this word, she looked at Kaiyang who was sitting next to Hong Xiaoduo. Compared with knowing that there was a child in the house who was probably her Tong'er, it seemed that the child in front of her was the one that made her heart fluctuate.
She hoped that this child was Tong'er, but she was even more worried that he wasn't. She didn't know if it was because of preconceptions, because she met Kaiyang first, and her mind and heart were full of Kaiyang, so she could no longer accept this child who appeared later. child?
Outside the carriage, Wei Zizheng, who once again received no response from his wife, became even more confused.
Soon, the carriage stopped outside the gate of the mansion. The fashionable book lady Qi, as well as the mansion stewards, servants, and Dr. Liu were waiting outside the gate.
"Mother, just wait inside." Wei Zizheng saw it and said hurriedly.
"Okay, stop talking and get Caiying out of the car quickly." Ms. Qi urged, looking at the carriage expectantly.
The porter placed the step stool under the carriage before Wufu, opened the door, and Fahrenheit stepped out.
Wei Zizheng quickly stretched out his hand to give her a hand. From this distance, he could clearly see his wife. Although she was a little tired, she seemed to be rounder than before Li Mansion, and her face was not as pale as before.
The eyes are not as dull as before, and the heart is as gray as death.
"Mother." Fahrenheit got off the carriage and first saluted her mother-in-law.
My eyes scanned the surroundings, but I didn't see the child, but I didn't feel lost.
"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back." Mrs. Qi really felt sorry for her daughter-in-law.
Knowledge of books and courtesy, and very affectionate with his son.
It’s just that her daughter-in-law was too calm and calm. Mrs. Qi looked at her son.
Just when Mrs. Qi was holding her daughter-in-law's hand and wanted to enter the house, she saw another person getting off the carriage. It was a young lady with a sword and whip around her waist. "What is this?" Ms. Qi was confused when she saw the girl reaching out and picking up another child from the car.
At first glance, this child looks a bit like a decent person and a bit like a daughter-in-law.
Could it be that the daughter-in-law took the child back because of his appearance and age?
"Ms. Hong, this is my mother-in-law."
"Mother, this is Miss Hong, who specially escorted my daughter-in-law back." Hua introduced.
"Xiaoduo has seen Madam, Kaiyang, calling for someone." Hong Xiaoduo stepped forward to greet Mr. Qi.
I saw the Qi family, who was just like Hua family. She looked older and didn't match her age. It must be all because of Tong'er.
"Kaiyang has met the eldest mother." Xiao Kaiyang stepped forward generously and bowed to Mrs. Qi respectfully and uprightly.
"Xiaoduo, Kaiyang? Oh, are you the young lady Hong that my master often mentioned?" Qi remembered it all at once.
Hong Xiaoduo smiled and said: "That should be us."
"Oh my god, what a coincidence that you have met again, oh, Xiao Kaiyang." Mrs. Qi was very surprised He said, leaning over and touching Kaiyang's face, feeling an inexplicable sense of closeness.
"Ms. Hong, this is my husband, Wei Zizheng." Hua introduced her husband again.
Wei Zizheng mentioned Hong Xiaoduo from his father more than once, saying that although she was a woman, she had such character, bearing and courage.
At that time, I thought my father was exaggerating, but I didn’t expect that when I saw myself, I turned out to be an upright and generous young lady.
And this, my father regretfully said that he wanted to bring back his adopted child Kaiyang. He also said at the time that his father missed his grandson and went crazy.
However, the moment the child got off the carriage, he felt that his heartbeat had slowed down. Now he can finally understand the reason for his father's regret.
"Then it's also Mr. Wei?" Hong Xiaoduo cupped his fists and smiled.
“Hahaha, that’s okay.” Wei Zizheng couldn’t help laughing after hearing this, and understood why his father was so impressed by this little lady.
Mr. Qi was happy that her daughter-in-law was back and hurriedly said to her, stop standing outside and come into the house to chat slowly.
After entering the house, Mrs. Qi arranged for the housekeeper to arrange a guest room for Hong Xiaoduo and the two to wash up, and ordered the kitchen to start cooking.
Hong Xiaoduo knew that the Qi family had something to say, and it was not easy to bring Kaiyang around anymore, so she went to the guest room to clean up and wash up.
Anyway, he's already here. Let's see what happened to the fake kid. Don't rush for this moment.
"Caiying, do you want to go rest first and see the child again?" Mrs. Qi asked worriedly at her daughter-in-law's reaction.
Fahren glanced at her husband aside, thinking of Dr. Liu who had gone to have tea next door, and thought for a moment and said, "Let's meet first."
Qi, Hua at this time, He is not as calm as he appears on the surface.
Who are my father-in-law and my husband? How could they be deceived? In the past few times, it was quickly verified that they were false.
But this time, the person who sent the news said they were so sure, so it was obvious that it was the in-laws and husband who had confirmed it.
So, is that child really my Tong'er?
Ms. Qi looked at her daughter-in-law intently, and then at her son beside her. Seeing that he also nodded, she ordered the maid at the door to bring the young master here...
