First Wife of Zhu Family

Chapter 558 Mother and Daughter Connecting Hearts
When Song Zixun and Du Rongzhi arrived at Jinghui Garden, the elder and his wife had just left.

Not long after the girl from Tongchuan went in, Nanny Ning lifted the curtain and came out from inside.

The two quickly greeted her.

Nurse Ning glanced at Du Rongzhi calmly, seeing that the latter's eyes were red and swollen, obviously she had just cried, she couldn't help but sighed in her heart, and said with a wry smile, "The old lady said earlier that mother and daughter Lian Xin, I'm afraid that the eldest young master may not be able to hide the truth from the young lady... as expected, she will be told by the old man." He also persuaded Du Rongzhi earnestly, "Miss Sun is a lucky person, and she is blessed by gods and Buddhas in the sky. On the contrary, the young lady Take care of yourself, don't get angry and sad... Even if you don't care about others, you have to think about Young Master Sun in your belly."

Du Rongzhi pulled the corners of her mouth reluctantly, and said in a hoarse voice, "I know all about it, thank you, Mammy..."

Song Zixun glanced inside and said in a low voice, "Nurse, grandma, she's an old man..."

Nanny Ning smiled helplessly, "I just talked to the old lady and the old lady, and I've stopped now." She paused, and said solemnly, "The old lady guessed that you would bring the young lady to pick up Miss Sun , ask the servant girl to tell you two: her old bones are still very strong, and she will watch the birth of Young Master Sun and the marriage of Miss Sun in the future, and she is waiting to hold her great-great-grandson! The idea is to hit Ms. Sun on the head—unless she steps over her old man's corpse, she will definitely die!"

Du Rongzhi's eyes became hot when he heard it, and he choked with tears and said, "Ma'am, please... thank grandma for me."

Song Zixun sighed, wrapped his arms around his wife's shoulders, and said in a low voice, "Then we'll take Sister Guan back first...Grandmother, please be more comforting."

Ning Momo nodded with a smile, "This is what slaves are supposed to do...Don't worry, Eldest Young Master."

Song Zixun nodded slightly, knowing that Du Rongzhi was already too impatient, so he stopped talking and accompanied her to Baoxia to see Guan'er.

It's just that before the two of them had time to go over, they heard the heart-piercing cries of a child from inside.

Du Rongzhi's heart tightened suddenly, ignoring Song Zixun who was walking with him, he lifted his skirt and walked quickly into the room.

Song Zixun wanted to persuade her to slow down, but he couldn't say it when he got to his lips. He just shook his head helplessly and followed with strides.

In the room, Guan'er really woke up, her little face was full of tears, she was out of breath from crying, even her face was blushing.

The servants all over the floor were helpless, those who brought water, those who brought toys, those who went to invite people... all flew around like headless chickens.

Everyone was stunned when they saw Du Rongzhi go in, and when they were about to go forward to salute, the latter had already walked quickly to the bed, hugged Guan'er from the mother's hand, and hugged her tightly, " Mother is here, mother is here...Guan'er is good...Guan'er is not afraid..." As he spoke, he couldn't help crying.

Sister Guan's face was flushed from crying, and she twitched in her arms, as if she could get over her breath at any time, "Mother...mother... woo...mother..."

Seeing his wife and daughter crying together, Song Zixun thought that he was in vain when he boasted in front of Du Rongzhi that he would protect her and his daughter for the rest of his life. Now that he is in his home and under his protection, Guan'er almost died. Died for no apparent reason... In a moment of grief and indignation and heartache, he just sat down beside the bed with self-blame, and silently took the two of them into his arms.

I don't know how long it took... the little man in his arms finally calmed down.

Song Zixun looked down, and saw her leaning against Du Rongzhi's chest, and fell asleep again with tears on her face.

Song Zixun let go of his arms, and said softly, "Rong Zhi, Sister Wan is already asleep... Take her—" Before he finished speaking, the hand that reached out to take his daughter stopped stiffly in the air.

Du Rongzhi held her daughter tightly in her arms, glanced at him coldly, and said hoarsely, "Let's go."

Yuanyuan was startled, and hurriedly answered yes, and quickly stepped forward to lift the curtain for her.

Song Zixun watched her struggling to hold her daughter's back, pursed her lower lip and followed without saying a word.

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

At this time, in the Green Bamboo Garden, everything was silent.

Shen Shi half leaned against the head of the bed, her sallow face was still red and swollen, she just stared blankly at the dancing candles on the desk in a daze.

Song Jinze on the side was silent for a long time, so long that people almost forgot his existence... Then he said in a hoarse voice, "The matter of sister Wan... what else do you have to say?"

Shen was startled, raised her head after a while, looked at him with tears in her eyes, and asked sadly, "Master, do you really want to force this concubine to die, so that I can believe my innocence?"

Song Jinze paused and looked at her with a complicated expression, "But mother said, that girl was hanged to death. If it wasn't for you..."

Shen laughed at herself, and smiled, but the tears fell down like beads with a broken thread, "The girl was hanged to death, so the master thinks that this must be done by my concubine? In Master's mind, is this concubine one of those sinister and vicious people who kill innocent people indiscriminately?"

Shen couldn't help coughing violently a few times, panting, "Let's not listen to what I said—the young master insisted that the girl was hanged instead of hanging herself, but who saw it? Who can tell?" Come out to prove it? But it’s all his one-sided words! The eldest young master even said that the mother-in-law next to the concubine would be killed if he was killed... If the concubine said that he deliberately made use of the topic, he wanted to use Fu's murder of sister Guan to frame him and set him up. My concubine died... would the master be willing to believe it?"

Seeing a little hesitation on Song Jinze's face, Shen smiled wryly and shook her head, "Master really doesn't believe it...Since you don't believe it, why bother to ask me now?"

Seeing the desolation and despair on Shen's face, Song Jinze couldn't help recalling Song Zixun's lukewarm attitude towards Shen over the years, and couldn't help but feel a little loose in his heart, thinking that the reason why he was attracted to Shen in the first place was because he liked her. Simple and kind, aloof from the world?Now that the two of them have walked together for twenty years, he should know her better than others, and trust her more, so why did he suspect her?

Thinking of this, Song Jinze raised his head and glanced at Shen's gray and old face. He had long since lost half of the bright and charming girl in his memory who was smiling sweetly and pulling his sleeve to call his brother... For a moment, he felt sad, so he was silent for a while. After a while, he whispered, "It's not that I don't believe you, it's just, just..."

He sighed deeply, "Forget it... Mother has already said that I will not pursue today's matter. From now on, you will only leave the housekeeping to Brother Xun, his wife and a few younger siblings, and take care of Brother Che at home. Go." After saying that, he stopped looking at her, got up and left the room.

Shen looked at his leaving back in a daze, and finally threw herself on the bed and cried bitterly.
