Chapter 376 Kangcheng Gu Family
"Prince!"
Xiao Fei's voice came out from the entrance of the bamboo forest again, very disappointed. "Prince Xiao is here, and Master Xiao Jiang is bringing him here."
"Don't worry, Miss Song. I'll arrange for someone to keep an eye on Du Zhihuan. I'll tell you about that young master the next time we meet."
Mu Jingxing's figure disappeared at the entrance of the bamboo forest, and Bai Lan walked out from the bamboo forest behind the bench with a smile on her face.
Song Yu glanced at her and asked, "Did you hear it again?"
"Hehe..." Bai Lan laughed a few times, "The bamboo forest is too empty, and I didn't hide far away. The young man that Prince Mu mentioned must be him. He will definitely express his feelings to you next time we meet."
Song Yu blushed unconsciously when she heard this, "Really?"
"Of course he does. Prince Mu must be attracted to you, otherwise he wouldn't have said so much to get you to give up the engagement."
“Not likely!”
"Don't believe me? You'll know next time we meet."
Song Yu turned and went to the vent. After a moment, his expression returned to normal. "Let's go to the mourning hall."
"Guanchen, is Sister Yu feeling better now? Have you comforted her?"
Jiang Guanchen said, "Don't worry, my cousin is more stable than yesterday. She should be here after the Song family leaves."
Xiao Chengqian was a little anxious when he saw the Song family burning paper one by one. He wanted to see Song Yu immediately and comfort her in person.
"Guanchen, I'm still worried. I want to go and comfort Sister Yu in person. Take me to Hibiscus Garden."
"good."
Mu Jingxing did not resist like he did yesterday, but followed him.
He had just confirmed that Miss Song only liked her cousin.
"Brother Prince, cousin, Prince Mu."
"Sister Yu." Xiao Chengqian walked forward quickly. Seeing that Song Yu's eyes were slightly swollen, his heart ached. "Uncle Song is watching you from heaven. Seeing your eyes are swollen, he must be heartbroken right now. Your father is not gone. He is always in your heart."
"Yes, my dear brother, my father is not gone. He is always here! I dreamed about him last night. If he told me not to cry, I would stop crying. Now I am going to look after my father and give him some money to spend. Do you want to come with me?"
"I'm here today to accompany you and guard Uncle Song. Let's go over there quickly."
Xiao Chengqian stepped aside to make way, Song Yu glanced at Mu Jingxing and walked straight forward.
Xiao Chengqian followed closely behind her, keeping half a step away and protecting her carefully.
Seeing this, Jiang Guanchen's lips curled up unconsciously, "Brother Prince, I'm right, aren't I? Cheng Qian's heart and eyes are now filled with my cousin. The Rong Prince's Mansion has a good family tradition, and the backyard has been peaceful for three generations. My cousin will definitely be loved when she marries there."
Mu Jingxing looked at the fiancée in front of him and said calmly, "You're right. Miss Song will definitely be loved when she gets married in the future."
"Sister Yu." Song Mingzhu stood up quickly when she saw Song Yu enter the yard.
Song Yu looked at her expressionlessly and then walked into the hall.
Seeing Song Yu come in, Chen Chunhua stuffed the last piece of paper money into the brazier, stood up and walked to Song Yu, "This is about your father's life experience. I want to talk to you alone."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at her.
Song Yu sneered, "You want to talk about it now? Do you think it still makes sense?"
Facing Song Yu's cold face, Chen Chunhua was frightened. "I... I really didn't remember it at the time. Now that I remember it, I just want to tell you. I'm not using this as an excuse to get any benefits. Even if Ming En didn't leave, I would have told him. I wouldn't have the audacity to renew the marriage."
"It sounds nice, but if Ming En were still alive, you wouldn't use this as an excuse to renew your marriage with us. No one would believe it!"
Jiang Yunwan was helped in by Caiwei and looked at her unhappily, "It's meaningless to say this now. You should leave. We in the Jiang family don't welcome you."
Chen Chunhua was anxious. She really didn't have that intention. If she had come and told Ming'en earlier, Ming'en might not have died!
"Don't you want to find your son's grandparents?"
"No need!" Jiang Yunwan didn't want to hear it! She didn't want to have anything to do with the Song family anymore!
"Mother, let's just listen to her and see what she can say."
Jiang Yunwan saw Song Yu speak, "Then come with us mother and daughter."
When they arrived at the next room, Song Yu asked Bai Lan, Chunhua and the others to wait outside.
Feng Yingying came over and saw this scene. "Guanchen, why did the old woman from the Song family go next door with Wanwan? Could it be that she came here to pay her condolences and then tried to beg for mercy? This Song family is so shameless, no! They are thicker than a city wall!"
Song Minglang and Song Mingzhu suddenly felt ashamed.
Jiang Guanchen glanced at the two people's faces and said to Feng Yingying, "There is no mother. Old Madam Song remembered my uncle's life experience and wanted to tell my aunt."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier or later? Why did you remember it now that Ming'en is gone?" Feng Yingying glared at Song Mingzhu and her brother. "I think the Song family has bad intentions. They just don't want Ming'en to find his parents soon!"
In the next room.
"Back then, Qingshan and I worked as temporary workers at the wealthy Gu's house in Jiangnan Kangcheng during the day. One night, Qingshan stole Ming'en back from Gu's house!"
"Steal?" Song Yu was furious. "You can't have children, yet you stole my father!"
"I didn't steal it, I brought it back. My Qingshan said that if we didn't take it away in time, Ming'en would die! Late that night, we packed up our belongings and left Kangcheng, running to Leyang County and hiding. We lived there for two months, and only when we were sure it was safe did we return to Wushuang Village."
Jiang Yunwan asked, "Which branch of the Gu family is Ming En from?"
Chen Chunhua said, "It should be from the eldest wife. We don't live in the mansion, so we don't dare to ask about the main family's affairs. We only know that the eldest wife of the Gu family heard that the lady in the bamboo garden was eight months pregnant and felt very sleepy. To be more precise, she was sleepy and was still confused right before giving birth. I haven't seen what she looks like, but it is said that she is extremely beautiful."
"Back then, there was a gynecologist in Cannes. We waited a month before our turn came. My Qingshan wanted to take me to the doctor, so he asked the housekeeper for half a day off. The housekeeper told Qingshan to finish his day's work overnight before giving him leave. That day happened to be the day when Madam Ting Zhuyuan was due to give birth. That night, my Qingshan witnessed someone stealing and replacing Madam Ting Zhuyuan's newborn baby."
"Qingshan said that the maid took the child out of Tingzhu Garden and left the mansion directly. Qingshan chased after her and saw that the maid was about to throw the child into the river. He immediately knocked her unconscious with a stick. After bringing Ming'en back, Qingshan went to the Gu family again and stole the swastika jade pendant from the fake young master's swaddling clothes. Qingshan said that when Ming'en grows up and passes the imperial examination, he will tell him his life story. If he wants to meet his parents again, he can take the jade pendant to the Gu family."
"Is that jade pendant Daddy's or the fake young master's?"
"It's Ming En's. Qingshan saw Ming En's father once. That day, Qingshan and other servants made a rattan chair with a bamboo umbrella and carried it into Tingzhu Courtyard. Before leaving, Qingshan accidentally saw a man holding a jade pendant and shining it against the sunlight through the open window. Qingshan only saw it for a moment before the steward hurried him away. After leaving, he learned from his companions that the man was the lady's husband."
Song Yu asked again, "Were there any other ladies in the Gu family who were about to give birth that night?"
"No, the Gu family has pregnant women, so just listen to the lady in the Bamboo Garden. Oh, by the way, Qingshan said that the fake young master was brought into the mansion from outside."
"Okay, we got it, you can go out now."
Seeing that Jiang Yunwan still had a bad face towards her, Chen Chunhua didn't want to offend her, so she turned around and left.
"Mother, it seems I need to go to the Gu family in Kangcheng and investigate carefully."
"Don't worry about it. Your father will go to Cannes to investigate. It's been over 30 years, and I don't know if he can find out."
"Of course! In fact, there's no need to go to Cannes. The person behind the child swap will be exposed soon now that they know the father is gone."
