Daughter Reborn as the Head of the Family

Chapter 168: You Can Run into an Acquaintance During a Tour in the Lake

Song Jinyue finally took Qiu Yun to Zhang Mansion.

Aunt Yuan stayed behind to take care of Ming Zhuxuan, while several maids secretly watched the two courtyards of Shen and her daughter.

Song Jinyue specially ordered Manager Song to prepare an inconspicuous gray-covered carriage.

After getting on the carriage, Qiu Yun asked, "Why did the lady go in such a hurry? The lady has just been tired for the whole day."

She didn't know her lady's plan, she just felt a little sorry for her lady.

"I'm afraid that the palace lady that the fifth prince gave to my eldest sister has an unusual origin. If I stay in the mansion, some people will inevitably be concerned about it. So I simply left the mansion temporarily and sent someone to keep an eye on her secretly to see where she came from."

Song Jinyue's eyes darkened, and there was a hint of evil in her eyes, "Let's see what that person wants to do. It's best to find out the master behind her."

Qiu Yun was a little puzzled, "Isn't he the fifth prince?"

Song Jinyue shook her head, raised her hand and tapped Qiu Yun's forehead a few times, and sighed helplessly: "Silly Qiu Yun, the fifth prince has always been selfish, how can he be willing to harm his own interests for the sake of others?"

She had something to say about today's brocade matter.

If a flaw is exposed, how can the fifth prince escape?

Therefore, there might be someone else behind the palace lady.

Only then did Qiu Yun come back to her senses.

They came in a bit of a hurry today. The boy in front of the Zhang Mansion didn't know that Miss Song Er would come today.

I saw a gray-covered carriage parked in front of the Zhang Mansion. The servant stepped forward and was about to drive it away when I saw Miss Song Lifting the curtain and walking out of the carriage with the help of a maid.

"Princess." The boy saluted hurriedly.

Song Jinyue nodded slightly before going up the steps and entering the Zhang Mansion.

Today, my aunt, Mrs. Xie, along with Cousin Zhi and Miss Xie's son, were waiting for her in the front hall.

But since Mr. Du has been staying in the Duke's Mansion since then, and he is afraid of causing trouble to his niece, after all, he brought his niece and nephew to the banquet today.

He simply took the people back to his house.

Mrs. Xie was talking to her mother-in-law about today's affairs at the Duke's Mansion, when the grandma in charge outside came back and said that her niece was here.

Her mother-in-law was about to go out to greet her. Mrs. Xie was worried that her mother-in-law would catch the cold. After several attempts to persuade her, she persuaded her to go out to greet her niece.

Mrs. Xie then ordered her maid to invite her daughter over.

"Aunt." Song Jinyue just stepped into the courtyard and saw her aunt Xie walking towards her from the corridor. She smiled and was about to salute when Xie helped her up.

"Why are you here now?" After Mrs. Xie finished speaking, she saw the baggage brought by the maid behind her and frowned slightly.

Was he quarreling with Mr. Shen and leaving the house in anger?

"What is this?" Mrs. Xie glanced at the bundle behind Qiu Yun for a few times, then took her niece and walked towards the main room.

"My aunt is leaving in a hurry today, and there is nothing urgent in the house right now, so I wanted to come and stay with my grandma and my aunt for two days."

Seeing that there was no strange color on her niece's face, Xie's heart relaxed a little.

But there was something fishy about it, and she knew that this was not the place for detailed investigation, so she stopped asking.

"My aunt has sent someone to call your cousin over. Come in quickly. Your grandmother is eagerly waiting for you."

The mother-in-law lifted the curtain, and Mrs. Xie led her niece into the back room.

Mrs. Zhang was sitting on the soft couch. When she saw her coming, her face immediately lit up with a smile, and she raised her hand to motion for her to come over and sit down.

Song Jinyue bowed and was half-pushed by her aunt Xie to sit next to her renter's mother.

Mrs. Zhang looked at her granddaughter carefully and said angrily: "I haven't come to see my grandma for several days. She is such a cruel girl!"

Song Jinyue lowered her body, threw herself into her grandmother's arms, and said with a bit of coquettishness: "Grandma, didn't I come to accompany you as soon as I finished my work?"

Mrs. Zhang took her niece into her arms and rubbed her bun, her eyes full of gentleness and love.

"Why did this time suddenly come?"

Mrs. Zhang gently pushed her granddaughter away from her arms, stared at her and asked.

"Don't you miss your grandma? Is it possible that grandma doesn't miss me?"

Song Jinyue looked sulky and pursed her lips, which made people very happy to see her.

Mrs. Zhang was dubious, and after looking at her carefully twice, she was completely relieved when she saw that her granddaughter did not dodge.

Mrs. Xie then ordered her servants to clean up the courtyard and come out.

Zhang Dingzhi heard that her cousin was coming, so she came over to see her. When she saw that her cousin had talked with her grandmother, she took her to her yard to talk.

The sunset is particularly gorgeous today, and the sky seems to be blooming with large and beautiful peonies, either dark or light, purple, orange, red, pink or yellow.

A full hour.

The gorgeous sunset gradually came to an end in the darkness that covered the sky.

Zhang Dingzhi suddenly became interested and invited her to go boating and enjoy the lanterns.

Recently, on the moat side, because it has not yet frozen, the boat shop business in the lake has been particularly busy.

Lanterns were hung up on the shore again. I heard that the scene was extremely spectacular.

Zhang Dingzhi had never seen her before, and because she had no one to accompany her, at this time in previous years, her second brother would take her to the lake, but this year, his second brother was not in Beijing.

Song Jinyue also wanted to take a look.

The two went to Xie's courtyard to beg, and Xie sent guards to follow them, telling them several times to go back quickly.

Finally, the two of them took their wives, maids, and dozens of guards to the moat.

When we arrived at the place, we saw the boats in the river hanging with lamps of various colors, floating in the river. The boats with the lamps lit were reflected on the river, which looked very majestic.

There was a boat carrying passengers docked on the shore. The nun of the Zhang family came forward and chartered an entire medium-sized boat. Then she took the two ladies on board. Half of the guards stayed on the shore, and half of the guards followed.

The son boarded the ship.

Both of them wore fox fur cloaks, fox fur sleeves on their hands, and hand stoves in their hands. Even the curtain hats they wore were made of fox fur.

After boarding the ship, Zhang Dingzhi threw his sleeves and hand stove to the maid behind him, took his cousin and headed towards the bow of the ship.

“The view from the bow is especially the best,”

As Zhang Dingzhi explained, he said, "Cousin, be careful where you step."

Song Jinyue nodded repeatedly and followed Cousin Zhi cautiously.

The scenery on the bow of the ship is indeed more magnificent than sitting in the cabin.

You can hear the trickling water in your ears, the gentle roar of the cold wind, and the hustle and bustle of human fireworks on the shore, which is a perfect contrast.

When the boat reached the river bank, the two of them got off the boat.

As the night gets darker, the light of the lamps on the shore gradually dims a little.

Song Jinyue was being helped into the carriage by Cousin Zhi, when her eyes accidentally crossed a familiar figure from the side.

The figure quickly disappeared into a dark and narrow alley.

Zhang Dingzhi saw his cousin stunned and couldn't help but follow her line of sight and saw a dark alley.

"Cousin, what's wrong?"

Song Jinyue came to her senses, got off the carriage, looked at her cousin, and said, "I saw an acquaintance."

Zhang Dingzhi became even more confused. Could her cousin have any acquaintances that she didn't know about?

"Cousin, let's go over and take a look." Song Jinyue led Cousin Zhi and walked towards the alley, and the guards behind her also hurriedly followed.
