Chapter 485
Master Du calmed down, and said calmly, "I haven't seen Qing girl for quite a while, and her aunt was talking about it two days ago..." He glanced at Du Minhui lightly, "If you are free, you might as well take your sister with you. My son often comes over to talk to her aunt..."

Du Minhui couldn't help being overjoyed, and hurriedly climbed up the pole, "I'll tell Mrs. Hu when I get back... She's always been careful, and she's most afraid of causing trouble to others..."

Master Du waved his hands impatiently, "They are all of my own flesh and blood, what are you talking about..."

Du Minhui laughed twice, "Brother is talking about..." He paused, then sighed again, "It should be a happy event for girl Zhi to recover from her illness, but my niece and son-in-law..."

He secretly glanced at Master Du's calm expression, and said in a low voice, "I heard what your majesty said, I'm afraid this matter can't be done well..." He paused, "Once the evidence is convincing in the future, even if your majesty is willing to read it." In the face of the Duke of the country, he will be punished lightly, I am afraid that the fame of the niece and son-in-law will also—”

Master Du originally leaned on the sedan chair and closed his eyes to rest, but he opened his eyes and looked at him coldly, "Just now His Majesty also said that we will wait for the truth to come out before dealing with it...Why did you already convict my uncle first? "

Du Minhui's heart trembled, and he hurriedly said, "I don't mean that, I'm just worried that my niece and son-in-law are really found out, and my elder brother, as the Yue family, will inevitably be implicated..."

Master Du sneered disdainfully, "I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of? No matter how implicated it is, it won't implicate you, uncle-in-law!"

Du Minhui was punctured by Mr. Du, and was immediately blocked for a word. After a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Where does the younger brother mean that... just worried about the elder brother—"

Master Du rubbed the center of his brows wearily, and interrupted in a cold voice, "If you are afraid of being implicated by us, just hide away... I know better than you what kind of person my uncle is, and your majesty is a wise king, so you will never be wronged It’s him.” After finishing speaking, he was impatient to talk to him more, just closed his eyes and continued to rest his mind.

Du Minhui slandered for a while, and it was useless to say a word for a long time... He just respectfully said, "Little brother made a slip of the tongue for a while. How could a family man like his niece and son-in-law do such a thing... I think so Some people are jealous that their niece and son-in-law are young and promising, or they have something to do with the Duke of the country, so they deliberately framed it!"

Master Du didn't open his eyes, but said calmly, "Let's see what happens next."

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

At the end of September, Song Zixun finished the business at hand, and returned to the capital with his wife and young daughter, waiting for the Holy Majesty's ruling.

Different from when he brought Guan'er back to Beijing to visit relatives years ago, this time Song Zixun was dismissed and investigated for being suspected of fraud, so the entire Guogong Mansion did not feel lively and festive at all because of the return of the eldest young master's family. They were all cautious, and even the footsteps were much quieter than before.

……

In Jinghui Garden, Mrs. Song asked someone to hug Guan'er and waited for a few juniors to go down, then sighed in a low voice, "Since you are back, let's rest at home for a few days... Anyway, there are your father and some uncles Now, no one will wrong you."

Song Zixun quickly responded, and talked with Mrs. Song for a while, then went to the front study to see the Duke.

The eldest lady asked Du Rongzhi with a concerned face, "I heard that you were also infected with the epidemic earlier. I was so worried at home that I couldn't sleep all night. I was afraid that something bad would happen... have you recovered now?"

Du Rongzhi smiled softly, "My mother is worried... my daughter-in-law is already well."

The eldest lady nodded, "Then I'm relieved." She said again full of distress, "Now that I'm back home, I'm going to take care of my body...I see that you are getting thinner than when you left."

Du Rongzhi had a meek face, "Yes...the daughter-in-law listens to her mother."

I heard the second wife laughing softly, "Sister-in-law, don't worry about it... The eldest nephew and daughter-in-law are blessed people, and they are blessed by the Buddha. The illness was so dangerous in the past, but in the end it was able to turn the danger into a blessing. On the contrary, Nayou Shi..." She covered her mouth and clicked her tongue twice, "When she entered the door, she was a good girl, and she was expecting her to spread branches and leaves for our family as soon as possible, but who knew that it was less than a year, and she disappeared like this. What a blessing."

The eldest lady paused, pursed her lips and said nothing.

"Second sister-in-law is right." Du Rongzhi looked at the frowning Mrs. Song calmly, and said in a sad tone, "Since Aunt You entered the door, she was gentle and courteous, and kept herself safe. There was no one in the whole house. I don't like it. I also treat her like my sister, and I only hope that she can give birth to a son and a half daughter to the young master as soon as possible. With a choke, he picked up the handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of his eyes.

There was a strange look in the eldest lady's eyes, and she looked up at Du Rongzhi thoughtfully.

The latter didn't notice it at all, paused for a moment, then remembered again, and said softly to Mrs. Song, "Mother Zhu, who went to serve Youshi earlier, blamed herself for being entrusted by her grandmother, so she had no face to come back with us... It's just that the granddaughter-in-law thinks that she is getting old and has worked diligently in our family for decades, so she brought her back together...Do you think she will continue to serve you by your side?"

Mrs. Song looked at her sincere eyes, thought for a moment, and waved her hands in a dispirited manner, "Since it is given to you, it is yours... You can look at the arrangement yourself, and you don't need to ask me again."

These words were in line with Du Rongzhi's heart, so she softly answered yes.

Everyone here was talking, and a girl came in to report that the fourth young lady had come.

Du Rongzhi couldn't help but pause.

In her previous life, Song Ziche's marriage was delayed again and again, and she was still unmarried when she died, so she really didn't have much impression of this daughter of Sheng Enbo's family...

But according to what Xianyun Haoyue said, this fourth young lady doesn't seem to be that easy to get along with...

Du Rongzhi was thinking silently in her heart when she saw a slender beauty in bright red surrounded by a group of maids and women.

The woman was sixteen or seventeen years old, with willow eyebrows and almond eyes, and a goose-fat nose, but upon closer inspection, her complexion was somewhat sickly pale.

She stepped forward with a smile, and her voice was as clear and melodious as a warbler's cry, "Granddaughter-in-law is late, please don't blame grandma." She then bowed to Mrs. Chen and the other two aunts.

Mrs. Song introduced to Du Rongzhi, "This is your fourth younger sibling, the youngest daughter of Sheng Enbo's family..." Then she said to Mrs. Zhao, "This is your sister-in-law."

Mrs. Zhao's gaze quickly sized Du Rongzhi, and said with a coquettish smile, "So this is my sister-in-law... she looks really good-looking." Then she smiled and said, "Sister Wan really looks more like a sister-in-law."

Du Rongzhi smiled lightly, "My brother and sister have won the prize...The younger brother and sister are really beautiful."

When the hatchback met the ceremony, Mrs. Zhao sat down next to Mrs. Xiao Shen, the second young lady, and Mrs. Jia, the third young lady.

With her joining, the room finally became lively.

Different from Xiao Shen's gentleness and Ning's reticence, Zhao's not only can speak, but also speaks very well. After a while, the originally dull and even dignified atmosphere was aroused by her, and even Mrs. Song There were also a few faint smiles on the person's face.

Du Rongzhi silently watched Zhao's smiling face, but she was a little lost in thought.

——She suddenly wanted to know what was the reason for the hatred that flashed in Zhao's eyes when she saw her just now, and she didn't even have time to conceal it.
