Chapter 84 Could it be the Prime Minister's Mansion's doing?
Two days later, Bai Ruian and You Zhu returned from school and went straight to Bai Yunfeng's study.
"Dad, there's a letter from my third brother." The little fat boy was panting as he ran, but You Zhu, who was following behind him, looked like he was taking a leisurely stroll in the garden.
"Dad, Third Brother..." Bai Ruian rushed to Bai Yunfeng and handed him a letter, "Third Brother has sent a letter."
"Really? Let me see." Bai Yunfeng's face lit up as he quickly took the letter and opened it. "It's really your third brother's handwriting, but...how did this letter end up in your hands?"
"I don't know. Anyway, I was in class when a teacher suddenly brought it in. He said someone at the door asked him to pass it on," Bai Ruian said, looking at You Zhu beside him, "right, sixth brother?"
"Yeah." You Zhu turned his head and responded.
Bai Ruian asked curiously again, "Dad, what did Third Brother say in the letter? Is he coming back?"
"No." Bai Yunfeng took the letter and strode out. "Let's go to Qinxin Garden to find your mother. Your third brother asked us to go to Jiangbei to see him."
"Really?" Bai Ruian was overjoyed. "Dad, can my sixth brother and I go too? We miss our third brother too."
He said as he pulled You Zhu, "Right, Sixth Brother?"
"Yes!" You Zhu looked helpless.
But Bai Yunfeng was happy now and did not notice anything unusual. He rushed to Qinxin Garden excitedly and told Wei Ranzhu the good news as soon as possible.
"Really?" Wei Ranzhu was also very happy to hear this. He took the letter and read it over and over again. He couldn't help but say, "Okay, okay, the third child must miss us. We have to go. Let's go tomorrow."
"I thought so too." Bai Yunfeng rubbed his hands, looking impatient. "Tomorrow, I will go to the palace to ask for leave. Oh, and then send someone to the military camp to call the fourth brother back..."
"Dad, I want to go too." Li Suining immediately begged.
"Go, go, our Suining hasn't met the third brother yet, so of course we have to go." Bai Yunfeng touched the little guy's head and immediately agreed with a smile.
"Dad, what about my sixth brother and me? We want to go too." Bai Ruian hugged Bai Yunfeng's arm and said pitifully.
"Okay, you guys go too." Bai Yunfeng waved his hand and agreed.
He muttered to himself again, "Big brother... No, Big brother can't go. He can't just take leave for the job of tutoring. Second brother can go..."
He looked at Wei Ranzhu again, "Are Xiaoba and Xiaojiu going too?"
"Let's go, our whole family will just go on a trip to Jiangbei." Wei Ranzhu made the decision readily, also looking like he couldn't contain himself.
"Dad, Mom, do we have to pack up our things tonight?" Little Dumpling suggested.
Wei Ranzhu nodded, "Sui Ning is right, we have to clean up tonight, right now."
As she stood up and got busy, she said expectantly, "It's not easy for a big family to go out. Besides, we have to bring some gifts for the third child..."
"Let's buy the gift tomorrow." Bai Ruian said immediately.
"Well, okay, it's getting late now. We can still buy it tomorrow." Bai Yunfeng nodded in agreement. "Okay, then pack up first. Don't bring too much. If you can't, we can go buy it over there."
Soon, the entire general's mansion became busy.
Li Suining and Lao Wu and Lao Liu sneaked away.
When they arrived at Youzhu's yard, the three little guys couldn't help but laugh.
Little Tuanzi couldn't help but give Bai Ruian a thumbs up, "Fifth brother is really great. He can actually imitate third brother's handwriting. Moreover, father and mother didn't even realize it was fake."
"No big deal." Bai Ruian was complacent, but then he became a little worried. "But sister, are you sure that Third Brother will get the news and come back tomorrow?"
The little dumpling nodded heavily, "Don't worry, I've already asked Xingxing."
"That's great." Bai Ruian was instantly relieved and jumped for joy. "So, Third Brother has actually returned to the Imperial City, but hasn't come home yet?"
You Zhu said in an unhappy tone, "So the person we saw that day was really Xiao Wu?"
At this point, Li Suining no longer wanted to hide it. "Yes, and I've seen Third Brother a few times, but every time I called him back, he didn't come back. If I hadn't listened to what mother said yesterday and knew that Third Brother was planning to break off the relationship, I would have... planned to let him do his own thing outside."
Little Tuanzi couldn't help but sigh, "Now it seems that having something to do and not being able to come back should be an excuse."
"It must be an excuse. What can't be done once we return to the General's Mansion?" Bai Ruian didn't believe it. "He really doesn't want to get rid of us. Humph, when he comes back tomorrow, I'm going to settle the score with him."
You Zhu had a different opinion, "However, if he didn't have something to do, he probably wouldn't return to the Imperial City."
Li Suining and Bai Ruian looked at each other and felt that it made sense.
"If he really has something to do, he should come back," Bai Rui'an said proudly, "Don't forget your ability. If he wants to do something, your sister can help him."
Little Dumpling nodded immediately, "Yes, no matter what Third Brother wants to do, I am willing to help him."
"Don't worry, when he comes back, I will tell him that there is a little god in our house who can predict the future, hehe..." The little fat man was so happy when he thought that his third brother was about to come back.
As the general's mansion was extremely busy, Xiao Wu did get the news quickly.
"A letter?" He frowned, his face full of confusion. "I haven't written any letters, let alone asked them to come to Jiangbei to see me."
"I think there's something fishy going on," Qingyun's expression turned cold. "Could it be the Prime Minister's Mansion that's behind this?"
Xiao Wu's expression turned even uglier. "What's the situation now? Do they believe it?"
Qingyun nodded immediately.
Xiao Wu couldn't help but feel a headache, and couldn't help but ask, "Then... who wants to know?"
"It seems that except for the eldest young master who is still in the East Palace, everyone else is preparing to go." Qingyun secretly glanced at his own master, "Even the eighth young master and the ninth young lady are going. Master..."
He hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Master, it seems that they...really miss you."
Xiao Wu was silent, feeling as if something was breaking out of the ground and growing in his chest. He... was almost unable to hold it back.
"Master, why don't you just go back?" Qingyun said bravely, "They miss you, and you miss them too. Why bother holding on? Go back!"
Xiao Wu heard a voice echoing in his heart: Go back!
But if he went back, wouldn't all his persistence over the years be in vain? How could he completely sever ties with the General's Mansion?
But if I don't go back, and the general's family really goes to Jiangbei, what should I do if they encounter danger on the way? What if someone ambushes Jiangbei?
For a moment, Xiao Wu was a little undecided.
