Before the Chinese New Year, Su Wenyue specially brought Feng Susu and her son over from Xinye: "Aunt, you have worked hard. I am not at ease leaving the things at home to others, so I have to leave them to you."
"Yueniang, what are you talking about? The world is in such a state now. If it weren't for your help, who knows what would have happened to Tai'er and I right now. We might have frozen to death or starved to death outside. There's no way we could have the good life we have now. It's because you trust me so much that I'm happy that I can help you." The best luck in Feng Susu's life was meeting Su Wenyue. To put it in a high-class way, she treated Su Wenyue as her own daughter and did things with all her heart.
"Aunt, please don't say such things. To be honest, we got along very well, so we ran into each other under such circumstances. I don't think I'm such a kind person, and I don't like to meddle in other people's affairs on weekdays. I admire your actions from the bottom of my heart, so I am willing to make friends with you. Now I treat you as a relative, so please don't be so mean to me."
"Well, to be honest, I feel the same way. I look at you like my own daughter."
"What's the point of marrying up? From now on you are my real aunt. But aunt, I have good news for you. There is some news from my uncle. Although it's not certain yet, I will find out as soon as possible." Su Wenyue said as she dropped a piece of news that made Feng Susu unable to remain calm.
"What did you say?" Feng Susu paused after hearing this, as if she didn't quite believe what she heard. After all, for so many years, she had asked around but there was no news about her man. She had almost given up hope, but now there was suddenly such good news, which she couldn't accept for a while.
"It's still uncertain, but I have some vague news. I'm not sure if it's true or not. I didn't intend to tell you now, for fear of making a mistake and letting you get excited for nothing. But seeing how much Aunt misses you and even went to Lingyin Temple on such a snowy day, I really can't bear to hide it from Aunt."
"Is what Yue Niang told you true? My boss really has news? Where is he?" Feng Susu reacted at this time and excitedly grabbed Su Wenyue's hand, staring at her closely, afraid that Su Wenyue would say a negative answer.
"Aunt, don't get too excited. I just got some clues, but I haven't verified them yet. If it's not you, please don't be too disappointed. I have been holding back these days because I am afraid that you will not be able to bear it if it is not you."
Su Wenyue actually knew it very well in her heart, but she couldn't show it, otherwise her carelessness now would become a suspicious point in the future. Even though Aunt Feng was also from a peasant family, Su Wenyue didn't dare to underestimate a woman like Feng Susu. She looked kind and simple, but a woman who had found a husband for so many years and raised a child on her own, this ability alone was extraordinary and should not be underestimated at all.
Feng Susu nodded quickly after hearing this, fearing that she would miss any news. "No, I can bear it. I have been here for so many years. You must tell me immediately if you have any news. Even if it is not him, at least tell me. It doesn't matter if there is no news this time. He is the biological father of the child. I will keep looking for him."
As Feng Susu said this, she didn't know if she was thinking about the past, but she couldn't help but shed tears. She tried hard to hold them back but failed, and kept wiping away the tears. After searching for so many years, how could she really not care about the result? She was just comforting herself and giving herself a reason to keep going.
"Don't worry, aunt. If I have any news, I will tell you the first time." Seeing Feng Susu like this, Su Wenyue felt a little guilty, but she was still clear about what to do. What's more, according to her plan, Aunt Feng would be reunited with her husband soon.
Speaking of this, Su Wenyue thought of Hongling in the general's mansion. Although that woman was not even a concubine, she was a woman after all. She lived in the general's mansion openly and even represented the general's mansion to attend the banquet. I wonder what the reason was and what position she held in General An's heart?
Although Hongling kept her actions secret from General An, Su Wenyue didn't believe that General An was completely unaware of it. If that were the case, An Chenhu wouldn't be in his current position. He was just turning a blind eye to Hongling's behavior, and that was the reason Hongling dared to do so.
Su Wenyue was a little worried about the existence of such a woman. She didn't know how Feng Susu would feel when she found out. She had been looking for her man for so many years, but her husband had another woman. Moreover, the arrogant way Hongling acted outside showed what kind of person she was.
"Look at me, I couldn't help myself during the New Year. I was just too excited when I heard the news about the child's father. Don't mind it, Yue Niang." Feng Susu finally wiped away her tears. Some families have a taboo about shedding tears at this time. It is unlucky.
Back at the general's mansion, Hongling brought the old chicken soup that she had stewed for half a day to the door of the study, but was stopped outside.
"Young man, can you please do me a favor? I made some chicken soup for the general to nourish his body. Don't worry, the general will not blame me for my kindness." Hongling said in a pinched voice, but unfortunately the servant guarding the gate didn't buy her trick at all.
"No, the general has ordered that no one should be seen, not even you!"
"What's wrong with that? I know the general misses his sister and son right now, I just want to go in and comfort him. As a subordinate, you should also think more about the general. The general has been looking for his sister for so many years and still can't find her. It can't go on like this. He should have someone caring to serve him by his side."
"Then it's not your turn. Leave quickly. If you disturb the general, don't blame me for being rude." The gatekeeper's face was full of contempt and disdain. People outside didn't know, but they all knew what was going on and they disliked Hongling very much.
An Chenhu inside also heard the noisy noise outside. He failed to find his wife and children, and this year he would have to celebrate the New Year alone. He was already in a bad mood, so he ordered someone to send Hongling back.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Hong Ling was chased away, and she felt embarrassed, especially with the disdainful and scornful look from the servant. Even though she was thick-skinned, she couldn't stand it. She stamped her feet and left angrily: "Humph, you ignorant blockhead. What's so good about that woman and child? She's just a country girl. Who knows how old she will be if she's found. Besides, the world is so chaotic, and she may not even be in this world anymore."
Hongling could only say the last two sentences in her heart and dared not say them out loud, otherwise she would really annoy the general. That woman and child were the general's weak spot, and even if Hongling was unwilling, she had to admit it.
