Chapter 896: Luxurious Dingguo Marquis Mansion

She was a little confused, but for a moment, she really couldn't figure out the reason.

Perhaps because he was worried about other things, Lu Xingwan didn't have a very good dinner that night, and everyone in the group seemed to be in low spirits.

The Song family thought that Wanwan was exhausted from traveling all the way and felt a little tired.

Xiao called off the banquet early, and after Wanwan finished her meal, she sent her back to the courtyard.

The courtyard where she lives now is naturally the courtyard where her mother Song Qingyan lived when she was still in the palace.

Xiao held Wanwan in her arms and walked towards the courtyard where Song Qingyan used to live, talking to her.

"Wanwan, since you are going to stay in the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion, you should live in your mother's courtyard first."

"If there is something you don't like, tell grandma and she will help you correct it."

Hearing what his grandmother said, Lu Xingwan hugged her neck and rubbed her cheek gently.

It is really as my mother said before, my grandmother is also a person who "changes her mind when she sees something new". Now that I am born, she even dares to change my mother's room without permission.

But she also knew in her heart that this was her grandmother's love for her.

And it was because of my grandmother's love for my mother that she grafted these feelings onto herself.

Wanwan hugged Xiao's neck tightly, enjoying this rare intimacy and peace: "Don't worry, grandma, we will be fine, and mother is fine too!"

Wanwan's words actually sounded a bit strange, which made Xiao stunned for a moment, but then she gently stroked her back, as if to comfort her.

She knew in her heart that Wanwan and Qingyan were living in Yong'an County, and perhaps because they were busy with things, they didn't have time to miss home.

But in the deserted late night, I would think of this bustling and prosperous capital city.

It was the same feeling she had when Qingyan left the capital for the border.

Although Qingyan was in the palace and he couldn't see her, he always felt that things were different after she went to Yong'an County.

The ladies behind them did not leave, but accompanied Qiong Hua and Nuomituan to Song Qingyan's courtyard.

Although it was night now, the entire Dingguo Marquis's mansion was brightly lit because of the previous order from Dingguo Marquis.

As they were talking like this, they soon arrived at Song Qingyan's courtyard.

Unlike the mansions of the eldest ladies in the capital that they had seen before, the floor of Song Qingyan's mansion was paved with bluestone slabs and was very solid and flat.

On the side of the wall, there was a row of weapons, which were now flashing with a warm light under the illumination of the light.

I think if it was in daytime, this weapon would not be so gentle.

Lu Xingwan looked at the spears, swords, broadswords, and bowstrings, and seemed to be able to imagine his mother bending the bow and shooting arrows and practicing martial arts here in the past.

The layout of this courtyard is also very different. There are no flowers, just a locust tree in the middle of the courtyard.

This locust tree must have been there for many years, as it is quite strong. Under the tree, there is a stone table and several stone benches.

I think my mother learned how to deploy troops here.

At the corners of the wall, there are also green vines climbing all over the wall.

Instead, it added a touch of softness to this courtyard filled with murderous atmosphere.

After settling them down, Mrs. Xiao gave them a few more instructions before turning around and leaving. The three ladies behind her, although reluctant to leave Wanwan and the others, hurriedly followed their mother-in-law's footsteps and left the courtyard.

They all knew clearly that she must be a little tired tonight, so they didn't want to disturb her anymore. After all, they would still have plenty of time to spend together after waking up tomorrow.

After leaving Song Qingyan's courtyard, Wei went straight to the kitchen.

She wanted to remind the kitchen staff to prepare a more exquisite breakfast for tomorrow so that Wanwan could have a taste of her hometown.

Seeing how thin this child is now, he must have suffered a lot in Yong'an County in the past few days.

Since she doesn't want to talk about these things, I won't ask. I just need to take good care of her quietly in the dark.

Song Qingyan's former lady's room was not very spacious because it had not been occupied for a long time. Even though Wei often arranged for people to clean the place, the furniture still gave off some odor.

But it's not a problem, instead it has a woody scent.

The moonlight today is nice. It shines through the curtains by the window and falls into the room, appearing quite soft.

Nuomituan had been walking with Lu Xingwan and the others for most of the day and was really tired. Now she had transformed into a spirit beast and was snuggling closely with Qilin.

Looking at Qilin now, it seems like he is protecting Glutinous Rice Ball.

The two little guys just lay there, as if they had entered a world that belonged to them alone.

Looking at their even breathing also makes people feel at ease.

At this time, Lu Xingwan and Qiong Hua were lying on their mother's former bed.

My mother's bed is actually not that small. Even if Lu Xingwan and Qiong Hua are both on it, they only take up half of the bed.

Looking at the bedding on the bed, it is quite new.

It should be the aunt who changed them just now, but the soft and comfortable feeling made them feel at ease.

The two of them just lay on the bed like this, as if to wash away the fatigue of the whole day.

At the end of the day, everyone was heavy-hearted and quite exhausted.

Qiong Hua even closed his eyes.

Lu Xingwan sighed, reached out her slightly trembling hand, and held Sister Qionghua's hand. Her movements were cautious, as if she was seeking comfort.

In the quiet room, Lu Xingwan's sigh was particularly clear.

"Sister Qionghua, where did you say Fourth Senior Brother went?"

Qiong Hua was brought back to her senses by Lu Xingwan's words. She slowly opened her eyes and looked towards the top of the bed.

There are some exquisite patterns there, carved very delicately.

The bed in this room was very delicately made. Qiong Hua was attracted by the pattern and looked at it carefully.

After a long while, she retracted her gaze and turned to look at Wanwan who was standing beside her: "When your grandfather comes back tomorrow, we will ask that little beggar about the whereabouts of your fourth senior brother."

"But I think that since your fourth brother left such a message, it means that he must have been captured by the Ghost Shadow Sect."

"I just don't know what happened to Shang Zhi. Logically speaking, his spiritual power is not low, so how could he be defeated by the Ghost Shadow Sect?"
