Chapter 253 Xiao Chengqian Meets Song Yu
"Let her grab it if she wants."
Song Yu said nonchalantly, "It's not like I'm unloved. I went back to the Du family because of my grandmother. My grandmother's health is really urgent. She can easily have a stroke. If it's serious, she will faint and never wake up again. If it's mild, she will suffer."
"Ah?" Bai Lan was afraid. "Is it really that serious? The old lady seems to be in good health."
Song Yu said, "Grandmother's blood vessels are blocked, and it's not easy to completely clear them. They tend to relapse easily. You can control your diet, but you're most afraid of emotions and anxiety, and you can't stand being angry. Eat quickly, and then go to Zhaohui Courtyard to accompany Grandmother."
Jiang Mansion.
After breakfast, Jiang Yunwan mentioned the Gu family again.
Song Mingen handed her the booklet and portrait slowly.
Jiang Yunwan was surprised, "This...when did Zhang Feng send it?"
"last night."
Jiang Yunwan frowned and said angrily, "I think it's because I didn't ask that you didn't confess!"
Song Mingen hurriedly explained, "I'm waiting for you to finish your meal, and our son can't go hungry."
Jiang Yunwan rolled her eyes at him, picked up the portrait and flipped through it. "Why are there only so few people? Where are the others?"
"Zhang Feng and his companions were discovered last night, and we only drew these. The booklet records the details of the Gu family, but we didn't find any clues. As for the appearance of the other members of the Gu family, we will try to find a way to see them in person."
"Ming En, close your eyes."
Song Mingen cooperated and closed his eyes.
Jiang Yunwan took the portrait and compared it carefully with Song Mingen. "Gu Wanqing looks a bit like you, but his wife and his concubines don't look like you at all. Maybe the painting isn't realistic enough."
Song Mingen said, "Last night, Zhang Feng and his men left a portrait at the Gu family. It was of Gu Wanqing's concubine, Liu. She had a son and two daughters."
"You are so handsome, it's impossible for you to be born to a concubine. We still need to see Madam Gu in person. What if she is really your biological mother? Otherwise, why don't we just go to her house with the token of love?"
Song Mingen shook his head, "We still have to investigate thoroughly first. With all the evidence in hand, we won't allow the impostor to make excuses."
"Okay, it's up to you. How do you plan to approach the rest of the Gu family?"
"Contact the Gu family in the name of doing business, and Wen Can will come over later."
"Okay, you two brothers can discuss it. I'll go to the Du Mansion and come back in the afternoon."
When Du Ye learned that Jiang Yunwan had arrived, she grabbed Song Yu's hand tightly and pulled her behind her.
I was afraid that Jiang Yunwan would come and take Sister Yu back to the Jiang family.
Seeing this, Song Yu was helpless and hurriedly said, "Grandma, relax. My mother just missed me and came to see me. She won't take me back to the Jiang Mansion."
Du Ye's thoughts were exposed and she smiled awkwardly, "Hurry up and go to the yard to greet your mother..."
Before he could finish his words, Jiang Yunwan walked in.
"Mother." Song Yu walked over quickly and hugged Jiang Yunwan, "Did you come to see me because you missed me?"
"Yes, mother will come here more often in the future, so that you won't forget her."
"How could that be? You are my mother and you will always be my mother. Besides, when I get married, I will have to go back to my parents' home often..."
Seeing how close the mother and daughter were, Du Ye wished Jiang Yunwan could be her daughter-in-law.
"Sister Yu, your mother is pregnant. Sit down and talk."
"Oh." Song Yu carefully helped Jiang Yunwan sit down.
"Wanwan, are you here specifically to see Sister Yu?"
"Yes, Madam. Sister Yu and I have something personal to say. Even if I become pregnant, I won't be able to travel back and forth between the two residences. I suggest that Sister Yu spend three days at the Du residence and four days at the Jiang residence within seven days. Is that okay?"
Du Ye was silent for a moment when she heard this. She didn't want to agree.
She wants to see her granddaughter every day.
"Wanwan, you and Ming'en raised Sister Yu. We, the Du family, cannot thank you enough. You are Sister Yu's adoptive parents, so you and Ming'en are my son and daughter-in-law. Why don't you both move to the Du Mansion? What do you think?"
Jiang Yunwan didn't expect that Du Ye was still thinking of adopting them as her son and daughter-in-law. How could she take all the good things?
She doesn't want Sister Yu to come back yet.
"Old Madam, Ming'en and I are naturally willing to move to the Du Mansion, but I haven't been with my parents for more than ten years, so I want to spend more time with them... I'm not here to snatch Sister Yu from you. How about this? Sister Yu stays at the Du Mansion for four days and then goes back to the Jiang Mansion for three days? If you don't agree, I..."
"Okay, I'll take four and you'll take three."
Du Ye felt that if she didn't agree, Jiang Yunwan would get angry with her, and she was pregnant.
Once I have my own child, I won’t miss Sister Yu anymore.
Jiang Yunwan was delighted. She chatted with Du Ye for a few words and then took Song Yu to Zhuohuayuan.
"Have you found out that the eldest master of the Gu family is a fake?"
"Not yet. Zhang Feng and the others were discovered last night... Your father doesn't want to come directly with the token. He wants to find out what happened and get strong evidence before coming. Right now, your father is discussing with Wen Can about contacting the Gu family in the name of business cooperation."
Song Yu said, "Contacting the Gu family in the name of doing business will slow down the progress."
"Your father said that if the impostor is really Gu Zhouci, the eldest master of the Gu family, then most of the Gu family's assets are now in his hands. Without complete confidence, even if he goes to the door with the token, and the other party claims to be innocent and had no knowledge of the matter, will he be honest when the Gu family assets are taken away?"
"So Dad wants to find out more about the Gu family's assets?"
"Of course, it can prevent the other party from doing something tricky."
Song Yu nodded, "Then let's do as Daddy wants. It would be fun if we were busy for a long time and then found out we were going in the wrong direction."
At this time, Bai Lan came in. "Miss, Prince Xiao just sent someone to say that Ruibao Tower will be holding a fundraising auction tomorrow to raise food and supplies for the border. They said that rare medicinal herbs such as Zhuguo and Tianshan Snow Lotus will be auctioned. Do you want to go with them tomorrow? If you do, Prince Xiao will come to pick you up tomorrow."
"I have to go, I want to get the Red Fruit and the Tianshan Snow Lotus, so I have to go back to him quickly."
"yes."
"Sister Yu, I didn't bring much money with me when I went out. Here are two hundred taels. Take them first. I'll ask A Feng to bring them to you when I get back."
Song Yu stuffed the banknote back into Jiang Yunwan's pocket and said, "Keep this money for yourself. I have plenty of money to buy the Red Fruit and the Tianshan Snow Lotus."
Prince Rong's Mansion
"Your Highness, this is news from the east of the city." A man who looked like a secret guard knelt on one knee and handed a note to Prince Rong.
Prince Rong took it and looked at it with a serious expression. After a moment, his expression returned to normal and he stuffed the note into the teapot and burned it.
"Arrange someone to keep an eye on the Gu Mansion. This prince will not allow anyone to take advantage of the Gu family..."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Not long after the confidant left, Xiao Chengqian walked in.
"Father."
"How is it? Song Yu said he wants to go to Ruibao Tower with you?"
"Agreed. She is indeed interested in rare medicinal herbs."
Prince Rong smiled and patted his shoulder. "Be sure to take a picture of Song Yu tomorrow to leave a good impression on her. We need to meet often in the future."
"Yes, father."
"Sir, this is bad. Something terrible has happened."
Mu Jingxing looked at Xiao Fei as if he was looking at a dead person.
Xiao Fei quickly lowered his voice and said awkwardly, "Prince Xiao has made an appointment with Miss Song to go to Ruibao Tower tomorrow."
Prince Mu's tone was cold, "How do you know?"
"...I have arranged for someone to keep an eye on Prince Xiao."
Mu Jingxing's face was gloomy. "You have a lot of free time. Aren't there enough prisoners in the yamen for you to interrogate?"
Xiao Fei quickly begged for mercy, "Sir, I was wrong. I will never do it again."
"Go and inform Guanchen to go with me to Ruibao Tower tomorrow."
Xiao Fei laughed wildly in his heart, knowing that the prince was saying one thing and thinking another.
"Okay, I'll be right there."
At four o'clock in the morning the next day, Xiao Chengqian came to the Du Mansion in gorgeous clothes.
