Chapter 57 Unwilling
After hearing Wen Mingqian’s words, Mrs. Gong quickly said: “This is natural, this is natural. Don’t worry, who is willing to give up their children?
Let’s The Gong family has not yet reached the point of selling off its sons and daughters. It is natural for a good boy to study in the imperial examinations and shine on his family."
"Brother and sister, you have made great contributions to our family this time. When the second brother comes back, I will make sure that he and you put an end to the past." Gong Rang said happily, "He should understand your painstaking efforts."
"Thank you, sir, for this. I don't dare to ask for anything. As long as my father can come back safely, it will be my wish." Wen Mingqian frowned.
Gong Rang sighed softly after hearing this, nodded, and said nothing more.
He knew that the bad blood between Wen Mingqian and Gong Xu was too deep, and seven years had passed between them, which would only make them more alienated and indifferent.
Wen Mingqian returned to Lingyue Pavilion.
Mrs. Song poked her head around and came to the main room. She didn't dare to see Madam Gong directly, so she came to check on Wei's words first.
“I wonder what wonderful idea our lady has come up with?” Ms. Song said with a smile.
"Didn't you ask your siblings?" Wei Shi asked with a smile. She had always been gentle with others, and she had gotten along well with Mr. Song over the years.
“I didn’t dare to disturb you,” Mrs. Song said with a reserved look, “I was anxious a few days ago, which made Madam unhappy.”
“That’s what you think. That's right," Webster said, "This family values peace, especially in our house. Now that the second brother is still in the Ministry of Justice, we can't be noisy."
< br>"What the eldest lady has taught me," Ms. Song said with a look of shame, "I also know that I am at fault."
"You are also concerned about chaos, I think Ming Qian can understand it." Wei Shi smiled and nodded, "But Ming Qian has already said it. She has already done the matter, and Mr. Zhu has already agreed. We just need to wait for the second master to come back. The rest of the things cannot be taken lightly. This is also for the sake of the overall situation.”
Of course Ms. Song was unhappy after hearing this. She didn't believe that Wen Mingqian could really persuade Zhu Hui.
Even if Zhu Hui agreed, she really wanted to know what shady methods Wen Mingqian used.
But these thoughts cannot be expressed in front of Webster, otherwise he will appear to be too villainous.
So she looked overjoyed and said, "Really?! Madam, you really have a way!"
"Yes! Ming Qian really did a great job this time. Weishi then said, "Aunt Song, I'm not advising you to ignore the past grudges, but now that Ming Qian and his son are back, you still have to find a way to live in harmony. "
"Don't worry, madam. As long as our madam doesn't cause trouble for me, and allows us mother and son a place, I will still behave as before." Aunt Song's heart was bleeding with hatred, but on the surface she was still gentle and virtuous.
"That's good, you can go back and rest! I see that your complexion is a little better these days, but you still have to be careful. Just make sure you are stable in the first three months, and you will be fine in the future." Webster Said, "I've also gone to the old lady's house. The old lady will have a snack sooner or later."
Mrs. Song then stood up and left, and happened to meet Gong Chang'an when she was walking to the west.
She knew that Wen Mingqian had brought Gong Changan with him when he went to see Zhu Hui, and she thought that if she couldn't find out anything from others, she might be able to trick Gong Changan into telling him something.
So he pretended to be kind and said: "Fourth Young Master, aren't you studying now? Why did you come here to play by yourself?"
"It's Aunt Song! My mother is resting in the house. I was afraid of disturbing her, so I came over here to play." Gong Changan said calmly and generously. "Baoan has been feeling unwell these past two days. He took a leave of absence from school and is staying at home! He has been saying that he wants to play with you. If you have some free time now, why not go and see him." Song Originally, Shi didn't want his son to play with Gong Changan, but now he didn't care much anymore in order to set up Gong Changan.
"I haven't seen Baoan for a few days. I heard that he is not in good health, but my mother said that Auntie, you also need to rest these days, so she didn't let me go and disturb him for the time being." Gong Changan said.
"Then let's go there together! I just asked the kitchen to make a few snacks that all your children love to eat. My brother sent some novelty toys a few days ago. Baoan is small, not big. You know how to play. Why don't you go over and have a look? If you know how to play, I'll give it to you!" Song, a smiling fox, thinks that children just love to eat and play, so he must have used these two things to seduce Gong Chang'an. Can't live.
Gong Changan sneered in his heart. He had already seen through Mrs. Song's thoughts. What good snacks has he not eaten? With Ma Zhang’s hands, there is no dim sum dish from all over the country that is not authentic.
As for those toys, no matter how novel they are, so what? He is no longer qualified to be a child.
However, he still looked very interested and said, "Thank you so much, auntie."
He followed the Song family to Ruixiangju, and Gong Baoan saw him coming. Overjoyed.
"Fourth brother, why are you here? I was thinking of going to find you in a few days." Gong Baoan expressed to Song several times that he wanted to go to Gong Changan, but Song always used various methods to Reason stopped.
"I met my aunt outside and followed her here. How do you feel now? Do you still take medicine?" Gong Changan stepped forward and asked him.
"That medicine is really unpalatable. It's extremely bitter. One sip will leave your mouth feeling bitter all day long." Gong Baoan complained, "I've had enough."
While speaking, Mrs. Song The maid has been ordered to serve snacks and fruits.
"You two, please eat snacks and talk." Mrs. Song smiled, "Fourth Young Master, I heard that Mr. Zhu has a black face. Can you see him today?"
“I saw him, it’s not what he said.” Palace Chief An smiled, “He’s just a skinny old man. His official uniform is a bit torn, and his boots are still patched!”
"Ouch! This is not like being an official!" Mrs. Song hid her mouth, "Don't he have a salary? No matter how honest he is, he can't afford to wear rags, right?"
"Don't you know, Auntie? Mr. Zhu's usual salary is used to help poor families." Gong Changan said, "He is really a good official."
"Yes, yes, I was wrong." Mrs. Song changed her words casually, "You must have done a lot to persuade Master Zhu, right?"
Who would have thought that after she asked this question, Gong Changan just smiled, Without saying anything, he turned around and continued playing with Gong Baoan.
Of course Song didn’t give up and asked a few more insidious questions.
Gong Changan just didn't talk to her, making her anxious and angry.
"Little madam, my uncle is here." Mrs. Yang came in and said.
"Ask my sister-in-law to wait for me in the small study room in front. I'll be there right away." Ms. Song didn't want her conversation with her sister-in-law to be overheard by Gong Changan, and she drove Gong Changan away if she didn't want to. You can find another opportunity to repeat his words later.
