Chapter 346: The Old Lady Visits Yu Mansion at Night
"Old Madam, please don't get excited. The uncle's injury should not be serious and he should be able to recover. Otherwise, he would not have gone to the Yu Mansion."
Madam Cheng's anger subsided a lot after hearing this. "Are you sure?"
Nanny Niu wasn't sure either. "Someone said they saw Master Bo in a wheelchair at the Yu residence this morning. He looked energetic and not worried at all. He must be unable to stand up for the time being."
"Have Meng Guangde prepare to go there tonight. I won't feel at ease until I personally confirm it!"
This unfilial son forced her to go see him in person!
What did she do wrong? Her eldest son's mind is full of Yu Shi, and her second son is mediocre and incompetent!
Why didn’t she give birth to a son who wouldn’t make her worry!
Meidai saw from afar that Nanny Niu went to the courtyard where Meng Guangde lived, and then left in a hurry half a minute later and hurried back to the main room.
"Madam, Madam Niu went to look for Meng Guangde secretly. It seems that the old lady wants to take action against you."
Jiang Yunshu thought for a moment and said, "Not necessarily. Meng'er has been watching over there for a few days. Maybe Cheng Xiao has already returned and gone to the concubine's place."
Mei Dai: "Probably not. The lady hasn't come back yet."
"You'll know when Meng'er comes back." Jiang Yunshu tilted his head to look at Yanzhi, "How's the recipe I asked you to find?"
Yanzhi: "I have found it. Madam, have you made up your mind? Will you regret it?"
She regrets that she is stupid!
"You've all seen what Shu Ge'er's life has been like. For the past thirteen years, he's stayed up all night in the study to meet his mistress! He even wants me to raise his mistress's son! I will never forgive him! I won't be soft-hearted!"
At seven o'clock in the afternoon, Song Yu's carriage appeared at the city gate.
"cousin."
Seeing Cheng Qingmeng waiting at the city gate, Song Yu hurriedly said to Du Ye, "Grandmother, please go back home first. My aunt may be feeling unwell. I'll go and see her."
"Grandma will go with you. It's just a matter of convenience."
"Grandma, I still need to have a private conversation with Cousin Meng, so it might take a long time. You should go back and rest first. You must be very tired from the journey."
Seeing Song Yu say this, Du Ye felt sorry for her and didn't want to follow him. "Well, there's no need to rush back. Come back after dinner."
"Yeah, okay."
Jiang Shiyun was about to go with them, but Feng Yingying stopped her, "No need to go. Judging from your cousin Meng's expression, Cheng Xiao should have returned to her mistress's place."
Seeing Song Yu leave, Lin Yutang called Xiao Chengqian into his carriage.
"In the past three days, Mother has noticed that Song Yu has become much more enthusiastic towards you. She has a constant smile on her face. How is it? Are you sure she is attracted to you?"
Xiao Chengqian thought about the feeling Song Yu had given him over the past three days, "Sister Yu must like me."
Lin Yutang smiled with satisfaction, "That's good. Wait for your grandparents to come back and finalize the marriage. When she reaches the age of marriage, let her marry you."
Xiao Chengqian was a little resistant in his heart, "Isn't it too fast? I heard Guanchen say that Song Mingen wanted to keep Sister Yu by his side for a few more years."
"That's not going to happen soon. Song Mingen would certainly like Song Yu to marry in sooner rather than later. If she does, she'll be the princess of the royal family. He'd be so happy, how could he object? Or are you still thinking about Huanhuan?"
Xiao Chengqian flatly denied it, "No, mother, don't let your imagination run wild. We are just brother and sister."
Lin Yutang knew he was lying when he saw his reaction.
My son still likes Huanhuan.
A son can only achieve his wish if he holds great power and is not restricted by his parents-in-law.
Huanhuan can only wait.
When Xiao Chengqian returned to Prince Rong's mansion, he called his personal guard Awu into the study and asked, "Have you found out what I asked you to find out?"
Ah Wu said, "There's no news yet. It's said that this kind of Gu appeared at the border sixteen years ago, and after the person who raised it was executed, it hasn't appeared in the martial arts world since."
"Since someone has raised this Gu before, there will definitely be others raising it. If you want to find it again, go to the border town and take a look yourself."
"Okay, Prince."
Xiao Chengqian sat quietly for a moment, then remembered that Song Mingzhu had been poisoned, and arranged for another personal guard to go to the Song Mansion and keep an eye on her.
Wu Lingheng, this ambitious man, dared to steal a child to seek wealth and fame, and his subordinates also knew how to use witchcraft.
He doesn't believe that he has no backup plan!
Maybe someone will really come looking for Huanhuan!
Cheng Qingmeng took Song Yu back to the Song Mansion and told Jiang Yunshu about Cheng Xiao's return to Beijing.
Jiang Yunshu's expression didn't show much reaction. "I understand. I'll wait for them to take action. Oh, by the way, Sister Yu, I'll ask you to examine Cheng Xiao later. Please examine her carefully..."
Song Yu smiled and said, "Aunt, don't worry, I will play the role well. Now that he is back, you two must be more careful..."
It was already dark when Song Yu had dinner at Cheng's house.
After dinner, Song Yu did not leave in a hurry. He stayed in the room and talked with the mother and daughter.
Old Madam Cheng was anxious to see Cheng Xiao, and she was so anxious that Song Yu was still not leaving that she asked, "Why hasn't Song Yu left yet? Isn't he going to stay here?"
She had a hunch that Song Yu was smart, and if he stayed overnight in her house, she might discover something.
Nanny Niu said, "It's a cold day, and it gets dark early. If we wait a little longer, Song Yu will be leaving soon."
Song Yu left at two quarters past midnight, and Old Madam Cheng's tense nerves relaxed.
At four quarters after the hour of Xu, Old Lady Cheng left Nanny Niu to guard the yard and went to the old uncle's yard.
Meng Guangde hid in the old man's study all afternoon. When he saw Old Madam Cheng coming, he quickly followed her down the underground passage.
The courtyards of Old Madam Cheng and Old Uncle Cheng are both inhabited by the Cheng family's trusted servants.
Jiang Yunshu's men have never found an opportunity to place anyone in.
"Madam, the lights in the old lady's yard have been turned off, and Nanny Niu has returned to her room. Perhaps she won't go to the outer room tonight."
"Impossible!" Jiang Yunshu knew Madam Cheng well. "My mother-in-law is always concerned about Cheng Xiao. Cheng Xiao has returned in a wheelchair. How can she still sit still? Didn't Meng Guangde disappear this afternoon? He must be hiding somewhere. He must be following my mother-in-law to the concubine's house. Go to the Jiang Mansion after breakfast tomorrow."
Yu Mansion
At this time, Cheng Xiao was lying on the bed, and Yu Ziyuan was massaging his legs, feeling a little heavy.
We have invited a doctor from outside to come into the house to check on him today. It turns out that my uncle really can't stand up.
"Alright, Yuan, you're still pregnant, so lie down and rest. There are so many famous doctors in Dayuan, there must be someone who can help me stand up. Isn't there Song Yu? I'm his uncle, she will find a way."
"Then she has no choice?"
Cheng Xiao said: "Even if I can't stand up, I am still a marquis. Our son will be a young marquis in the future. When he achieves great things, our good days are still to come."
Yu Ziyuan said, "My mother may not agree to proceed according to the plan. You can't stand up now. The emperor can make you a marquis, but he can't let you hold an important position in the court. In the future, the entire Cheng family will depend on the child in Jiang Yunshu's belly."
Cheng Xiao knew that she would have wild thoughts when she was uneasy, so she said in a firm tone: "I have made great achievements on the border for our son. In the future, he will definitely be the pride of the entire Cheng family. It's just that our eldest son has been wronged. When the time is right, we will let him recognize his ancestors and return to his roots."
Yu Ziyuan was still uneasy, "But my mother-in-law won't agree."
Cheng Xiao frowned, "I can't give in to her this time. If she hadn't insisted on getting close to the Jiang family, how could our family be separated?"
"But...what if our son looks like me? Jiang Yunshu will be suspicious."
Cheng Xiao sneered, "Don't worry, if your son looks like you, he'll look like me. Jiang Yunshu loves me so much, her heart and eyes are filled with me. For so many years, she felt guilty about not having a son. Now that she has a son, if I say he's hers, she'll believe it without a doubt."
Yu Ziyuan felt at peace and she even forgot that Jiang Yunshu was stupid.
"Ah Xiao, I'm relieved. Go to bed early. You need to rest more now."
The two had just pulled up the quilt and were about to go to sleep when there was an urgent knock on the door, "Uncle, Madam, the old lady is here!"
