First Wife of Zhu Family

Chapter 324 The Incident
The summer in the south came earlier than expected, and it's only in May, and the weather is already a little hot.

Early in the morning, Du Rongzhi discussed with Yuanyuan and others about going to the tailor shop to get people's summer clothes - after all, this place is no better than the Duke's Mansion. There is a ready-made sewing team at home. Now, except for the clothes of a few masters, everything else is I asked someone to measure the size and asked outsiders to do it.

Song Zixun heard Du Rongzhi speak with enthusiasm, so he couldn't help raising his head and glanced at her lightly, "When they are ready, they will be delivered, and if you don't care, you can ask yourself to get it...Why bother to run around by yourself?" With long and slender hands, he picked up a spoon to scoop up a bowl of wolfberry porridge and put it in front of Du Rongzhi.

Du Rongzhi waved Yuanyuan and the others to go down and prepare, and took the spoon from Song Zixun, "I also want to go out for a stroll."

She scooped up the porridge and took a sip, remembering, "By the way, I asked you to help me find a shop last time, do you have a clue?"

Song Zixun paused for a moment with his hand peeling the egg, "I'm already looking for it." He deftly split the egg white from the middle, and the yellow egg yolk rolled into Du Rongzhi's plate, "It doesn't mean that there is a suitable shop. Yes, don't be too impatient."

Du Rongzhi understood that what he said was true, and after thinking about it, he said, "If you really can't find a suitable one, you can actually consider a slightly worse location."

"Okay." He put the egg whites on the plate in front of him, quickly picked up another one, and peeled it off gracefully, "Do you still want it?"

Du Rongzhi shook her head, "No more."

Song Zixun smiled gently, "Eat quickly, I will go with you after eating."

..........................................

After breakfast and settled down in Guan'er, Song Zixun accompanied Du Rongzhi to the tailor shop to look at the clothes.

The two got out of the sedan chair early and walked on the busy street.

On the way, he passed by a juggler, surrounded by several circles of people, Du Rongzhi was also a little curious, and was about to drag Song Zixun to see the excitement, when he suddenly saw a group of government servants in dark clothes walking towards him.

Seeing him, everyone hurriedly bowed and said, "Master Song."

Song Zixun nodded slightly, and asked lightly, "What's the matter?"

The head catcher hurriedly stepped forward and cupped his hands, "Just now the yamen received a report that a girl died in Huo Yuan's family, and the subordinates and others are going to investigate..."

Before he finished speaking, Song Zixun felt that Youdao was looking at him enthusiastically.

He thought for a while, "You guys go first, I'll be there later."

"Yes, this subordinate will leave." The catcher bowed his hands to Song Zixun, and then led the people away in big strides.

When the group walked away, Song Zixun looked at Du Rongzhi, raised his eyebrows lightly, "Do you want to go too?"

Du Rongzhi pursed her lips in embarrassment, and said with a smile, "I'm afraid it's not good, is it?"

After a cup of tea, Du Rongzhi was already sitting in Song Zixun's sedan chair.

Song Zixun squinted at her, "...Didn't you just say it wasn't too good?"

Du Rongzhi stroked the folds of her skirt, and said seriously, "I heard Mrs. He say last time that Mr. Huo has a lot of taste, and the garden he designed is the most elegant in Shanyin County...It just so happens that I I have nothing to do at home recently, and I am thinking about tidying up the garden again, and I will go with you today to have a look, and maybe I can find some inspiration from it."

"..." Song Zixun looked at her silently for a while, then nodded and said, "I find that your skin has become thicker recently."

Du Rongzhi tilted her head and thought for a while, then said seriously, "It's probably because those who are close to ink are black."

..........................................

When Song Zixun and Du Rongzhi arrived, Yuanwai Huo was in the room comforting Aunt Gu who was crying.

Mrs. Gu was originally born weak and charming, but at this moment, the pink and daisies have all faded, and the pear blossoms are raining, which is even more distressing. Huo Yuanwai's side is still coaxing patiently in a soft voice. Entered the gate.

Gu shrank instinctively into Huo Yuanwai's arms, and asked in a choked voice, "He...how did they come?"

Huo Yuanwai was also a little puzzled, so he patted her reassuringly and said, "You can rest easy, I'll go out and have a look."

Gu's thoughts turned a few times, before Mr. Huo got up, he stretched out his hand to hold him, sobbing, "Master, wait...my concubine will accompany Master to go outside to entertain guests."

Member Huo paused and hesitated, "This..."

Mrs. Gu wiped the teardrops off her face, and said softly, "Master Song and Mrs. Song are coming back for the first time, we must not be rude...slight Mrs. Song."

Now there is only Gu Shi as the hostess in the family, and it is true that she is the only one who can accompany the female relatives, but...

Seeing Mrs. Huo's expression of embarrassment, Gu choked up and said, "I understand what the master is worried about..." Her voice paused, she didn't know what to think for a moment, and she shed tears again, "Last time in Wanfu Jinlou, although Xiao Hong She made a disrespectful speech and offended Mrs. Song, but the concubine as the master did not stop it in time, so it was also at fault... Now that Xiaohong is gone, I should go and make amends to Mrs. Song..." I couldn't help but Stop crying.

Huo Yuanwai sighed, "Forget it, if that's the case, you can go there with me..." He paused, and then urged, "In front of Mrs. Song later, remember to be cautious in your words and deeds, and don't lose your courtesy .”

Mrs. Gu quickly responded, "Master, don't worry, I will save myself."

..........................................

Song Zixun and Du Rongzhi were led to drink tea in the front hall by the butler of the Huo Mansion.

Song Zixun wiped the tea powder in the bowl slowly, "How is it? Do you have inspiration?"

Du Rongzhi was looking around, and was slightly startled when he heard the words, before he nodded and said, "It's really inspired...how about we go to the yard where the crime happened?"

Song Zixun looked at her speechlessly.

"I've come here, I always have to look around, don't I?" She actively lobbied, "Didn't it mean that Mrs. Xianhuo had been raising her baby in that yard before she passed away? I guess the scenery there must be the best in the whole mansion..."

"Aren't you afraid?" Song Zixun said helplessly, "That kind of scene is not something you, a woman, should watch."

Du Rongzhi curled her lips, and was about to speak when she heard footsteps outside.

"I don't know if Mr. Song and Mrs. Song came to the humble house, Huo is far away... I hope Mr. Song and Mrs. forgive me." I saw a handsome middle-aged man striding in, followed by a petite woman behind him. , it is the aunt Gu Yun who has a double-sided relationship with Du Rongzhi.

"Mr. Huo, you don't have to be polite." Song Zixun smiled lightly, "I just went out with my wife just now, and I accidentally heard that there was an accident in the house, so I came to have a look."

Huo Yuanwai sighed, "I don't know why such a thing happened... It's really a misfortune for the family, misfortune for the family!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu uttered two low sobs in a timely manner.

Song Zixun looked at it coldly, frowned and said, "This is..."

Mrs. Gu hurriedly wiped away her tears, and said pitifully, "Mrs. Gu, a civilian woman, has met Mr. Song, Mrs. Song."
