Daughter Reborn as the Head of the Family

Chapter 75 Brothers

Song Jinyue glanced at the mother-in-law who was guarding Chunchan. The mother-in-law understood what the second young lady meant and hurriedly knelt down and searched Chunchan's body with her hands.

"Found it." The woman happily held the bank note and presented it to the second lady.

Song Jinyue took a look at it to confirm that it was correct, and then collected the banknote.

He waved his hand and ordered: "Carry Yun Xing down to rest first. Chun Chan will slap thirty sticks on her and lock her in the woodshed, waiting for her to be punished."

After the explanation was completed, Song Jinyue went to the main hall to see Mr. Wang.

Chunchan's face was ashen, she was pushed down on a long bench, and she let the long stick hit her hard. After wailing three or two times, she passed out.

But the nanny didn't stop until she was beaten enough, and then she threw the unconscious Chun Chan into the woodshed.

In the main hall, the room was silent.

"There was some incident that kept Mr. Wang waiting for a long time." Song Jinyue saw the gift and explained, "This is the one hundred taels of silver notes."

She handed the things to Qiu Yun, who held the banknote and sent it to Mr. Wang.

Mr. Wang accepted the banknote and stood up to say goodbye, "I'm going back to Jingzhao Yamen first. I'm disturbing your house today."

Mrs. Shen personally sent Mr. Wang away.

Song Jinyue stood outside the courtyard gate, watching Mr. Wang go away.

She then returned to Mingzhuxuan, looked at Qiu Yun, and ordered: "Qiu Yun, ask your cousin if there is anything strange in the Xu Mansion. In a few days, your cousin will take someone with him."

Go back."

"yes."

Now, Imperial Physician Xu is dead, and the old man also hanged himself.

The people in the dark, fearing that they have been alarmed, will definitely not send people to the Xu Mansion secretly to check.

Although the clues have been cut off at the moment, the people behind the scenes are probably anxious.

After all, now that the queen was pregnant, the emperor was overjoyed and went to the Zhaohua Palace to reward her with many treasures, and also gave her an extra grand treasure.

It can be seen that the queen holds great importance in the emperor's heart.

Nowadays, it is extremely difficult for the people behind the scenes to touch the Queen's womb again.

The sun was very bright today, so Song Jinyue did not stay in the house. She asked her maid to move a soft stool to the courtyard, set up a charcoal fire on the stone table, and warmed tea on the stove.

Song Jinyue closed her eyes, and in her ears was the sound of boiling water boiling on the stove.

As I listened, I fell asleep unconsciously.

Grandma Yuan took a heavy spyder and gently covered the second lady's body. Song Jinyue was lying on her side, but she turned over and continued to sleep without waking up.

Mother Yuan was afraid that she would catch cold and couldn't bear to wake Song Jinyue up, so she ordered people to move two pots of charcoal fire and put them aside.

Seeing that nothing was missing, Grandma Yuan entered the house and brought out a low stool and placed it next to Song Jinyue.

In her arms was a sewing basket, with a half-embroidered handkerchief inside.

In winter, the headscarves of the ladies in the capital are embroidered with large red flower patterns, which look like they can dispel a bit of the winter chill.

But Song Jinyue didn't like it.

Grandma Yuan then embroidered a tiger wearing a red cloak. The tiger looked very cute with its head and head.

Since the end of the year is approaching, this veil is most suitable for the occasion.

When Qiu Yun came back from doing things outside, she saw her young lady sleeping soundly in the yard. Grandma Yuan was running needle and thread quickly through her hands. She looked up at Song Jinyue from time to time, with a smile on her lips.

That picture looks very warm.

Qiu Yun stayed close to Nanny Yuan and watched her embroidering the handkerchief.

Song Jinyue slept for two full hours. If she hadn't felt a little thirsty, she might have had to sleep for a while longer.

"Back?" Song Jinyue said when she saw Qiu Yun beside her.

Qiu Yun nodded. Song Jinyue lifted the brocade quilt and slowly sat up. Qiu Yun hurriedly took the big cloak that had been placed on the stone table and tied it for her young lady herself. "Miss, please don't catch a cold."

Grandma Yuan is not here now, there are only two masters and servants in the courtyard.

"Don't worry, Miss. My cousin said that he would stay for a few more days before retreating. He also said that Doctor Xu had been staying behind closed doors since he returned home. He didn't even see Mrs. Xu's children, so..."

I don’t know what Dr. Xu was thinking before he died, but he didn’t want to see his family for the last time.

"There aren't any weird places next to it."

Qiu Yun told the lady exactly what she learned from her cousin.

Song Jinyue picked up the tea cup on the stone table and took a sip.

There weren't many disturbances in his heart. Maybe after the incident of beating Imperial Physician Xu was revealed, Imperial Physician Xu had to face everything he had done, and he felt extremely guilty.

He had no face to see the Queen again, and he had to die to save Mrs. Xu's children.

The aunt no longer pursued the matter, she only prayed for the dragon fetus in her belly to be comforted and landed.

Song Jinyue just stood up and combed her hair. The maid came to report, and the prince and the fifth prince came to visit.

Now the Duke is not in the mansion, and Mrs. Shen has also left the mansion.

Song Jinyue had no choice but to bite the bullet and come to see the guests.

When they arrived at the main hall, the prince was sitting and chatting with the fifth prince He Yuanzhen. When he saw her coming, they both stopped and their eyes fell on her.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince." Song Jinyue greeted the guests according to the rules.

He Yuanyi frowned slightly, "Before, I only thought that Cousin Yue was alienated from Gu Gu, but now it seems that Cousin Yue is alienated from everyone?"

He Yuanjie looked at the prince and nodded in agreement with the prince's words.

"Sit down." He Yuanyi pointed to the empty seat next to him and said.

Song Jinyue slowly walked over and sat down. The prince asked again: "Is everything okay for Yan'er at home? Can you ask her to come out and meet me?"

The prince came to see Yan'er today.

Unexpectedly, when I left the palace, I happened to bump into Lao Wu. I was thinking of sending him back to the capital. I heard that there seemed to be a disagreement between the two. I remembered the affection between the two when they were young, so I thought of being a peacemaker and calming down the two of them.

relationship.

After all, the queen mother had decreed marriage for the two of them.

Song Jinyue's expression remained unchanged, she stood up and bowed again, and replied calmly: "Back to His Royal Highness, Yan'er is fine in the house. It's just that both his father and mother are not at the house now, so it is inconvenient to ask Yan'er to come out and meet with His Highness the Prince.

.”

"You don't have to care so much about the rules..."

"Your Highness, please do not embarrass me."

Before the prince finished speaking, Song Jinyue interrupted the prince coldly.

Seeing her unhappy expression, Prince He Yuanyi didn't feel comfortable asking further questions.

He could only look at the fifth brother, change the subject, and said: "The day before yesterday, the queen mother asked the fifth brother when he wanted to get married."

"Your Highness, if you have nothing to do, please excuse me and leave first. There are still many unfinished things in the palace." Song Jinyue stood up and bowed again.

There was indifference and distance in his tone.

The prince's smile froze on his face, and he looked at this cousin in surprise.

Does this mean you want to drive people away?

Why did his sweet, sensible and considerate cousin become like this?

He Yuanzhen didn't have many emotional ups and downs in his heart. Ever since Song Jinyue returned to Beijing, he had always noticed, consciously or unconsciously, Song Jinyue's displeasure and alienation towards him.
