"Miss, I'm fine, I'm just worried for a moment." Qiu Yun explained her worries.

Song Jinyue pursed her lips, and finally spoke to comfort her: "Don't worry, just feel at ease."

Besides, she just couldn't say it anymore.

Madam Song was making a fuss, asking the Duke of Song to adopt the son of his concubine's cousin into the Duke's mansion. How could the Duke of Song not know what his aunt was planning.

Back then, when she was in such danger at the Duke's Mansion, she actually chose to take away all the valuables. Now that he is willing to let his aunt come back to stay for a while, it is the biggest concession.

Now he actually has the idea of ​​​​the Duke's mansion. This is something that Song Guogong will never agree to.

At this time, Mrs. Shen was involved in Mrs. Li's case.

Song Guogong only felt that one was as big as two.

But then I thought about it, and what my aunt mentioned was reasonable. Even if he delays and refuses to adopt the family now, what will happen to him a hundred years from now? Will the Duke's palace have to give up?

When he thought of this, Song Guogong became inexplicably angry and refused to let it go.

In Mingzhuxuan, Song Jinyue asked Aunt Yuan to prepare hot pot.

While they were eating, Qiu Yun ran in, looking a little panicked, "Miss, something happened..."

Song Jinyue put down her bowl and chopsticks, looked at Qiu Yun, and signaled her to speak slowly and not in a hurry.

"My maid heard that the Duke is taking a concubine!"

Qiu Yun finished everything in one breath, and the news was a bit surprising.

In these years, ever since Shen entered the family, there has been only one mistress in the Duke's mansion, Shen, and there has been no other concubine.

It turned out that when my mother was still alive, my father never took any concubines in the house because he felt guilty about the Shen family. Although my mother intended to create concubines for my father, my father always rejected my mother's kindness.

Now, my father actually took the initiative to take a concubine.

"Which young lady did father fall in love with?" Song Jinyue asked.

Qiu Yun rolled her eyes and then replied: "I heard that she is not a young lady from a wealthy family, but a fisherman from the countryside."

Song Jinyue was a little surprised by this news.

"Go and find out the whole story." Song Jinyue always felt that there might be something fishy about it.

My father went to court and returned home every day. How did he get to know the fisherman?

Given his status as a father, it is not difficult to choose a concubine from a family of similar family status in the capital. There will always be families who want to please the Duke's palace and will eagerly send their daughters to their doorstep.

If my father lets the wind go, I am afraid that within a day, the door of the Duke's mansion will be broken down by the matchmaker.

Now, why did my father choose a fisherman?

Qiu Yun naturally agreed and trotted all the way out to inquire again.

Song Jinyue lost her appetite and ordered her dinner to be taken away. She sat in front of the desk and flipped through the letters in her hand casually, but in her mind, she kept thinking about her father's strange concubine.

In order to keep the Duke's palace, my father wanted to take a concubine and give birth to a son. Over the years, because of his guilt towards the Shen family, he never thought of taking a concubine.

However, now that Mrs. Song is making trouble, Mrs. Song's thoughts are exposed openly. Now that Song Guogong has trouble sleeping and eating, how can he care about the Shen family.

Naturally, we must first protect the Duke's Mansion.

A few days ago, Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Li framed Song Jinyue, and Song Guogong had already considered divorcing his wife.

But who would have expected that things happened one after another, which made Song Guogong forget about the previous things for a while.

Shen originally thought she had escaped disaster, but later Mr. Wang from Jingzhao Yamen came to visit.

She was given a slap in the face, and now she is still locked up in the prison of Jingzhao Yamen with a frown on her face.

Nowadays, Mrs. Shen has too much time to take care of herself. How could she know that Song Guogong has clamored about taking a concubine?

Song Jinyue flipped through the slip in her hand and couldn't read a word anymore, so she simply threw the slip aside, closed her eyes, and raised her hand to rub her eyebrows.

But something else came to mind.

Tomorrow will be the day of the funeral of Imperial Physician Xu.

"Mother Yuan." Song Jinyue called out.

Grandma Yuan was packing things in the house outside. She heard Second Miss's voice and hurriedly stepped forward to reply, "Second Miss, I'm here. But what do you want to tell me?"

Song Jinyue slowly raised her eyes, lowered her hands to her sides, and moved her body to sit upright. Then she looked at Aunt Yuan and ordered: "Auntie, tomorrow is the day of the funeral of Imperial Doctor Xu. Go outside to buy some paper money and other items.

In my name, send it to Xu Mansion."

Aunt Yuan felt that this matter was inappropriate, so she deliberately tried to persuade her, "Second Miss, I think the Xu Mansion will understand what you mean. Why don't you send it in the name of the Duke's Mansion?"

, you are young after all..."

Song Jinyue shook her head and did not adopt Grandma Yuan's opinion, "Mammy, I understand that you are doing it for my own good. If it's okay, just follow my instructions. There's no need to say anything else.

"

Seeing that Song Jinyue wouldn't listen at all, Grandma Yuan knew that it was useless to persuade her, so she could only follow the second lady's wishes.

The death of Imperial Physician Xu finally caused waves in Song Jinyue's heart.

Although in the previous life, Dr. Xu eventually hanged himself and died, in this life, because of her appearance, many things were changed, and Dr. Xu also hanged himself earlier than expected.

Logically speaking, Dr. Xu deserved his punishment, but in her heart, she always felt that sending some paper money to the Xu family was just a way of showing her appreciation.

No matter what is said outside, that's all.

Aunt Yuan hadn't come back yet, but Qiu Yun, who was inquiring about the good news, came back first.

After entering the house, Qiu Yun hurriedly closed the door, then approached her young lady and replied, "Miss, my maid has already made inquiries."

Song Jinyue gave a faint "hmm" and signaled Qiu Yun to continue.

Qiu Yun then opened her mouth and told the whole story.

It turned out that the father and the fisher girl had known each other before.

In the spring of last year, my father went fishing overseas with his friends, and happened to meet the fisherman fishing on the shore. Because of her beauty, my father took a closer look at her.

Unexpectedly, the fisherman's brother became angry when he saw his father staring at his sister, even though he could guess by their clothes that the two people on the shore were probably big shots in the capital.

But because he wanted to protect his sister, he ignored others and stood up, raising his hand to push his father.

At that time, my father was standing on the shore when he was pushed by the man. He flew backwards and fell into the rushing river.

My father and his friend were enjoying themselves fishing, and the servants they brought with them were waiting dozens of meters away from the shore.

My father didn’t know how to dive, so he was flopping in the cold river water. The man was so panicked that he didn’t know how to save him. Only his father’s friend shouted at the top of his lungs on the bank, “He doesn’t know how to swim.”

Seeing this, the fisherman girl on the shore quickly dropped her fishing gear and without caring about anything else, she plunged into the fast and cold river water and rescued her drowning father.

At this time, the servants who arrived had captured the fisher girl brother and sister.

The father fainted at the time and was later carried back to the house. The father did not know what happened to the two fisher girl brothers and sisters.
