Chapter 428 Gu Yining inquires about the Hidden Sign Inn
Nanny Qiao helped Du Ye up and let her sit in the armchair that Du Kang had brought over.
"Quick, go get me some cold tea to calm me down."
After drinking some cold tea to calm herself down, Du Ye carefully read the contents of the letter.
She really gave birth to a good son and married him to a good wife.
Now, the eldest grandson, just like his father, acted first and reported later and quietly married a wife at the border.
What sin has she committed?
"Madam Qiao." Madam Du Ye's face was serious, but there was a hint of joy in her tone. "I have a great-grandson, he's already three months old!"
Aunt Qiao:!!!
"Is it the eldest or second young master's child? Is it in the womb? Or has it been three months since its birth?"
"The boss's still in the belly."
Aunt Qiao breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately the baby was still in her belly.
Otherwise, the old lady would really get angry.
"Madam Qiao, take a few experienced maids with you this afternoon to meet our great-grandson's mother and find out when she conceived. The Du family bloodline must not be mixed up. We can't just blindly raise a child for someone else. This is our eldest grandson's first child and he'll be the boss of the Du family in the future. We can't let him be mixed up."
"Okay, old lady, do you want to tell the Marquis and his wife?"
"Let them know, they're going to be grandparents soon."
An hour after Su Beiqing learned about this, Du Ye also entered the Du family tavern.
When the shopkeeper saw his old lady coming, he was about to go forward to greet her, but Cuiyun went forward before him.
Cuiyun didn't dress up deliberately, and Du Ye recognized her at a glance. She followed her to the private room on the top floor without saying a word.
Du Ye saw two couples who were much younger than her in the private room and was not sure if they were hers.
"Sister Ye!"
The familiar voice made Du Ye's eyes widen. "Ningning, it really is you! You've changed so much in eighteen years. Not only have you changed so much, but you look so young!"
Gu Yining pulled her to sit down and said with a smile, "We returned to Beijing early and covered our faces because we didn't want acquaintances to recognize us. We will return home tomorrow and thought we should set the wedding date for our two children before we go back."
Du Ye smiled and said, "You have secretly met my sister Yu. Are you very satisfied with her?"
Gu Yining: "More than satisfied, I felt close to Yu the moment I laid eyes on her. She must be my granddaughter-in-law."
"Ha... I was worried that you'd insist on choosing Huanhuan as your grandson's wife."
Gu Yining said, "Huanhuan is fine too. I like Sister Yu more now. Let's set the wedding date today. After we return home, both families will go through the three letters and six engagements process."
Du Ye's face was troubled. "Sister Yu's adoptive father just passed away. She must observe mourning and cannot get married until she is at least seventeen. Can your godson wait that long?"
"no problem."
Gu Yining handed over the two marriage certificates that she had prepared.
Xiao Yanxu handed over the pen and ink.
"Sister Ye, my godson's birth date and horoscope are already written. Please add your sister Yu's birth date and horoscope. The wedding date will be set on the third day after Sister Yu finishes her mourning period. We calculated it to be an auspicious day."
If she settles the marriage first, she won't be afraid that the Mu brothers and sisters will kidnap Yu girl.
"This..." Du Ye looked at the marriage certificate in front of her and felt that it was too fast.
"Ningning, isn't this a little too fast? Although I'm Sister Yu's grandmother, the Jiang family is also her family, including her adoptive mother. It would be best if we all sit down together to discuss this."
Gu Yining curled her lips and frowned, "Don't you want Yu girl to marry my godson?"
"How could that be? The best candidate for husband in the entire capital is your godson. Naturally, I have to choose the best for Sister Yu. The main reason is that I don't know Sister Yu's birth date and time very well. I will ask my son and daughter-in-law in detail later."
The good sister was too impatient. Du Ye thought that if she signed the marriage certificate, what if Sister Yu changed her mind and didn't want to get married?
It will be difficult to cancel the engagement then.
After all, Prince Xiao and Huanhuan grew up together.
Although they are good sisters who can talk about anything, she is the princess after all.
Gu Yining: "Sister Yu and Huanhuan should have been born at the same time, right?"
Du Yeshi: "There must be a sequence, otherwise the child wouldn't have been swapped. Don't worry, the marriage is a sure thing. You'll be back home tomorrow, right? We'll meet the day after tomorrow to finalize the marriage. Two days won't be too much of a hassle."
Gu Yining had only come to confirm the wedding date and test Du Ye's attitude. "That's right, two days won't be too much of a problem. Sister Ye, we only know a general idea about Sister Yu. Tell us in detail the details of how Sister Yu was replaced, and how Boss Jiang's daughter suddenly returned after being missing for fifteen years."
Du Ye then told the two of them the truth in detail.
"Their family of three nearly perished in the fire?!"
Gu Yining and Xiao Yanxu were inexplicably angry.
Du Zhihuan's biological father is so cruel!
Mrs. Du Ye said, "Thankfully, Sister Yu warned us in her dream that Wu Lingheng wouldn't succeed. He would have burned down half the inn. If I hadn't taken precautions, I would never have known that my granddaughter was with someone else."
Xiao Yanxu: "Madam Du, Yu was stolen and yet she was able to meet a pair of good parents who spoiled her and raised her. God made her have a dream to warn her and avoid death. If she is not a lucky star, who is?"
Du Ye was so happy in her heart, "Marrying Sister Yu will bring me some blessings."
"Which inn is this?" Gu Yining's sudden question made Du Ye confused for a moment.
Xiao Yanxu suddenly realized something, "Madam Du, do you know the name of that inn?"
Gu Yining added, "Doesn't the inn's sign have the word 'hidden' in it?"
Du Ye was very surprised. This couple's focus was really inexplicable. "I don't remember what inn it was. I only know it was a folk inn not far from Xuancheng Post Station. It should have been rebuilt now."
Gu Yining thought that the people she sent to Wushuang Village to investigate would pass by the inn on their way back, but she couldn't wait any longer. "Sister Ye, can you go back and ask Sister Yu what the inn is called today? I'll arrange for someone to guard the back door and wait for news."
Du Ye was puzzled: "Why are you asking about this? Or are you coming back early to secretly investigate something?"
Gu Yining couldn't explain it for a moment. She didn't feel comfortable telling Du Yeshi that her son might be planning a rebellion. "We're secretly investigating something, but we don't have any evidence yet. We're checking any inns with signs that say 'Hidden.'"
Seeing the two of them look serious, Du Yeshi felt that the matter was serious and said, "Please arrange for someone to come back with me later."
After having lunch at the Du Family Tavern, the couple hurried back to the Yunqi Inn as they had to meet Gu Wanqing.
Gu Wanqing hadn't arrived yet, so Xiao Yanxu asked Gu Yining to take a nap first.
As soon as Gu Yining closed his eyes, the inn that was half burned down came to his mind.
"Ah Xu, do you think the inn that Yu's family of three stayed in is the inn that was mostly burned down in my dream?"
Xiao Yanxu said, "If the inn sign has hidden characters, it may not be the inn in your dream. Madam Du just said that the inn should have been rebuilt. After all, in your dream, the inn should have been abandoned."
At the same time, Wen Nuo came to Chaofeng Palace Academy.
"Sister, I'm here! Is there something important you want to tell me?"
