Gu Yan was so anxious that she didn't say anything, so Song Wan had to secretly kiss her own hand. After tasting it, she quickly spat.
It’s obviously not sweet at all!
At this moment, she suddenly remembered that she did not wash her hands after coming back from picking grass in the mountains. No wonder her hands smelled bitter of grass.
Gu Yan is anxious...
Why did my wife suddenly bite herself? She couldn't be trying to taste something, right? Maybe she didn't eat enough at noon?
It seems that I need to prepare more dry food and snacks that are durable and easy to store for this trip.
Song Wan and others came back and stayed for only more than two months before leaving again.
November is the coldest time of the year in Guizhou, and now it has started to snow. It is not easy to travel on the road alone on horseback, so they changed to a carriage this time, which makes it more convenient to carry food and luggage.
Compared to last time, there are Song Qin and Song Twelve in the team. The remaining secret guards are still working with the people left by Zhang Sheng to protect the safety of the two families.
A month ago, Yun Zhuo brought his potato seeds and Jiang Da back to Jinzhou to plan to plant potatoes next year.
Song Wan promised him that after dealing with King Yu, he would make a detour to Zezhou to visit him and discuss business matters.
There weren't many people, so three carriages were prepared, Gu Yan said anxiously, so that they would look like ordinary young men and women out for a trip.
Song Wan thought he was right, but she said she wanted to drive one herself, so Song Qin and Gu Yanji had to sit in the carriage. However, Song Qin stayed alone in it most of the time.
Except for the time when Song Wan sent him in to see his second brother who was not yet fully recovered, Gu Yanji sat outside the rest of the time.
Song Qin heard the two people talking and laughing outside, and suddenly he missed his wife. He shouldn't have sat here, and he didn't know if Twelve could squeeze in another person.
The carriage driven by Song Shier was loaded with pots, pans, long-lasting grains, and frozen pork, fish, chicken, and duck meat. They were on the road and would sleep outdoors from time to time.
The carriage driven by Song Qi and Gu Wu was also full of everyone's luggage and tents needed for camping outdoors.
There really is no place for Song Qin to go.
He could only stay alone in the carriage, listening to Gu Yan anxiously asking his sister if she wanted to eat, was she thirsty, was she cold, and was she bored?
To be honest, if he didn't look exactly like Gu Yanji whom he knew before, Song Qin would really suspect that this Gu Yanji was someone else impersonating him.
Song Qin thought that Gu Yan was a little too enthusiastic. He had never been so affectionate with his wife before.
Fortunately, Gu Yanji finally knew to stop, mainly because Song Wan said she was full, otherwise he would have continued to feed her.
Song Wan is Song Qin's biological sister now after all. She still remembers that she has a brother who has been alone in there for such a long time. He must be very bored.
So Song Wan, who had nothing to do after eating, used his mental power to control the horse and let it follow Song Qi and the others in front. He then got into the carriage and made small talk, "Second brother, do you want some fried peanuts? They're fried with sugar."
She bought the peanuts from a family in the small town ahead, and then she paid a little more money to have them fry them with sugar.
Song Qin was still relieved deep down in his heart. His sister was indeed better than his future brother-in-law, and she still cared about him, her biological brother.
"Okay, give some to second brother." Song Qin stretched out his hand. How could Meng refuse his sister's care, even if it was sweet.
Song Wan grabbed a handful from her purse and gave it to Song Qin. She didn't expect that just because she was being polite, her second brother actually wanted to eat it.
Fortunately, she made a lot of money, otherwise she would definitely regret what she said.
Song Qin had no idea that these dozens of peanuts would cause his sister so much pain. He only felt the love from his sister.
Gu Yan was the only one who knew the truth. He suppressed the slight upward curve of his lips and decided to change the subject. If Song Wan continued like this, she would probably lose her several bags of snacks. After all, the first thing she said was about food.
"This trip to Yuzhou, in addition to controlling Prince Yu." Gu Yanji's expression became serious. "If he really had contact with foreign enemies more than ten years ago, then we don't need to take action. Let the news be leaked to the emperor's spies, and let them deal with Prince Yu's brother."
Song Qin put the peanuts in his hand into the empty teacup on the small table beside him and agreed, "Let them fight each other and give us enough time."
Seeing that Song Qin didn't eat the peanuts and even poured them into his teacup, Song Wan thought he didn't like them, so she took advantage of the break between his urgent conversation with Gu Yan to chew them one by one.
Song Qin was still discussing with Gu Yan anxiously, "It's just that we can't be sure who the emperor will send."
They can't just arrest everyone who comes. If someone doesn't return to Beijing to report in time, the emperor will definitely be suspicious.
"Actually, it can be confirmed." Gu Yanji deliberately glanced at Song Qin twice more.
Song Qin was confused. "How can I be sure?"
"Wei Xuezhi." Gu Yan hurriedly said a name.
Song Qin was shocked. "You don't want my wife to write a letter to her grandfather, do you? Aren't you just trying to pierce her wounds?"
After he came back, he learned that on the day Weiyuan Houfu was imprisoned, the Prime Minister sent someone to the prison to sever ties with his wife.
He used to think that all the members of the Wei family were as kind-hearted as his wife, but it turned out that they all valued power and interests over family affection.
Despite his wife's situation at the time, the Wei family showed no mercy at all. Song Qin would never recognize such a relative in his life.
Gu Yan was anxious: "I didn't mean that."
Song Qin said coldly, "If she's not my wife, can you find another granddaughter of Wei Xuezhi?"
Gu Yan was anxious. "To be honest, my elder brother told me about the special communication method between him and Wei Shoufu."
"What special... method of sending a message?!" Song Qin was shocked. "You, you, no, it's your eldest brother, he, he..."
Song Qin, who had just cursed the Wei family in his heart, began to feel tongue-tied. Was it too late for him to take back his words now? He cursed in his heart, but God probably couldn't hear him.
Gu Yan nodded hurriedly. "Minister Wei is in the capital, associating with wolves and tigers for the sake of his future."
Song Qin: "So their severing of ties with my wife is also fake?"
Gu Yan was anxious to hear him calling her "wife" over and over again, and suddenly felt a little envious. She wondered when he would be able to call A Wan "wife" openly.
"Yes, only in this way can the emperor have the surname Wei. Prime Minister Wei is an absolutely loyal royalist." Gu Yan hurriedly explained with a faint smile, "Otherwise, why do you think Prime Minister Wei always refused to agree to your request to marry the daughter of the Wei family?"
Song Qin thought for a moment and guessed, "You mean that the Wei family was indeed loyal only to the person on the throne, but later became loyal only to the late emperor?"
"You must know that the Weiyuan Marquis' Mansion has always been under the control of the late emperor. Isn't it very clear what it means if the Wei family marries the Weiyuan Marquis?" Gu Yan hurriedly analyzed it to him.
Song Qin didn't think about this at first. He went to the battlefield at the age of fifteen and rarely returned to Beijing. At that time, he didn't know much about the situation in Beijing. At that time, he had his grandfather, father and brothers above him. He only needed to do what he liked and didn't need to worry about these things at all.
Later, when he returned to Beijing to report on his work, he ran into a thief who stole his wife's purse. This was the first time he met his wife.
So during the six months he spent in Beijing, he either climbed over the wall of the Wei family or knelt in his mother's yard and begged her to help him propose marriage to the Wei family. He no longer remembered whether to support the royal party or not.
Song Wan had almost finished her peanuts when she spoke up to confirm, "So, Second Sister-in-law's family is ours now?"
It looks like her team is going to grow again.
Song Qin remembered that he seemed to have cursed his wife's brothers with bad tempers just now. Feeling guilty, he wanted to get two peanuts to eat to relieve his stress, but the teacup he was given was empty, and there was not a single peanut left in it.
Song Wan had just swallowed the last peanut when she saw Song Qin's actions. She raised her eyes and their gazes met Song Qin's.
Song Qin took a deep breath and said, "...Sister, where are my peanuts?"
He spoke to Gu Yan anxiously for a few words, and the peanuts in the teacup were gone.
Song Wan put on a stern face and pretended not to know anything, but her attempt to hide the truth only made it more obvious. "Anyway, it's not for me to eat."
Song Qin... thought he was blind or stupid.
Song Wan tried to quibble and divert attention, "Brother, we just had lunch not long ago. You're not feeling well yet, so don't keep eating snacks."
Song Qin: "You gave me the peanuts!"
Song Wan lied with her eyes open, "Even if I gave it to you, the peanuts didn't listen to me. What can I do if they don't want you to eat them?"
Song Qin: “???”
What kind of logic is this.
Song Qin was so frustrated by Song Wan's unconventional logic that he turned around and wanted to find Gu Yan to judge the matter. "Gu Yan, tell me, did she eat it?"
Gu Yan looked at Song Wan anxiously, with a hint of helplessness and love for her in his eyes.
His Awan is always so different.
Song Qin stared at the two of them, and when he saw Gu Yan's anxious look, he felt something was wrong. He felt like he had asked the wrong person.
Sure enough, the next second, Gu Yan spoke anxiously, "What I ate has nothing to do with A Wan."
His words and deeds showed his favoritism towards Song Wan, and he completely ignored Song Qin, his future uncle.
Song Qin...
These two people really treat him as a fool.
Isn’t Gu Yanji afraid that it will be difficult to get married in the future?
He is Song Wan’s second brother!
It seems that after not seeing her for more than a year, Gu Yan's ability to lie has improved a lot.
Forget it. As an older brother, he should have the magnanimity of an older brother and not argue with the two younger ones.
Song Qin could only comfort himself silently in this way.
