Chapter 1356 Little Song Le Gives the Beads
However, the content of Shu Yu's letter to Meng Yunzheng was different from that of the letter to Qi Lie.
There's a special channel to send a letter to Qi Lie, but not to Meng Yunzheng. If something goes wrong en route and the letter is intercepted and seen, then it's all over.
Therefore, Shu Yu treated the letter as a family letter, inquired about his recent situation, and then subtly mentioned that the beads in Xiao Song Le's hand were the same as the beads they had seen when they were painting two years ago.
The year before last, when I was painting, it was only possible on the black market.
Meng Yunzheng could see it at a glance. Once he knew that the beads were related to the black market, he would definitely think of the Second Prince of Gongqiu. He would understand the rest without her having to say more.
After sending both letters, Shu Yu finally let out a heavy sigh of relief.
However, she still went to Xiao Songle's room that evening.
During this period, Meng Pei and Meng Yunzheng were not at home. Although the Meng family had servants, everyone was still a little worried, so they brought the child back to live with them. Anyway, the Lu family originally had his room.
When Shu Yu arrived, Niu Shi, who was taking care of Xiao Song Le, had just finished bathing him and was dressing him.
Everyone was taken aback when they saw Shu Yu coming over.
"Aunt Niu, I want to talk to Xiao Songle for a bit."
Madam Niu understood and quickly stood up. "Second Miss, please sit down. I was just about to wash up."
Once Madam Niu left, Xiao Songle immediately came over, grabbed Shu Yu's clothes, and looked up at her expectantly.
Shu Yu couldn't help but smile, then carried him back to bed and wrapped him in a blanket.
"Auntie?" Little Song tilted her head, puzzled.
Shu Yu smiled, picked up the bag he had placed on the bedside table, handed it to him, and whispered, "Lele, can Auntie ask you for a favor?"
The little guy was taken aback for a moment, then his eyes lit up slightly, and he nodded hurriedly.
He can help; he's a year older now, so he might be able to do it.
Shu Yu looked at his bright eyes with amusement, hesitated for a moment, and then said hesitantly, "Auntie wants to borrow your bead. The pattern on that bead is very beautiful, and Auntie wants to study it. It just might take a while, but I..."
Xiao Song blinked, listened to Shu Yu's gentle voice, thought for a moment, then reached into her bag and rummaged around until she pulled out the bead and handed it over without saying a word.
Before Shu Yu could finish speaking, he was stunned by Shu Yu's sudden action.
"Lele?"
"Auntie, here you go."
Shu Yu paused, slowly took the bead back, and asked softly, "Are you really giving it to Auntie?"
Shu Yu had personally witnessed how much the child treasured this bead.
She was actually prepared for him to reject her, and she couldn't possibly take it from him by force. She had even thought of a second plan.
Who knew he would give it to him so easily?
Xiao Song thought for a moment. He wasn't speaking very fluently yet, but he still tried his best to express himself. "Today, Zhuzhu fell out, and Uncle... um, I was so nervous. I put Zhuzhu in Auntie's hands so it won't fall out next time."
Shu Yu understood. Don't underestimate this child just because he's young; he's quite perceptive.
Based on her and Meng Yunzheng's prior explanations, and Yuan Shanchuan's reaction upon seeing the bead, Xiao Songle probably knew that the bead was very important.
Now that she came to him late at night to ask for the beads back, the child guessed that it wasn't good for him to have the beads on him.
