The Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: The Head of the Family

After returning to the mansion, Song Jinyue went to the front hall and ordered someone to summon Guanshi Song.

"Song Guanshi, will my father ask you to speak for the second uncle today?"

Song Guanshi bowed his body slightly, and replied respectfully: "Back to the second lady, the Duke of the country sent the younger one to the second master to deliver a message, saying that the second master should not rush to bury the old lady, and wait for the government to perform an autopsy on the old lady. , and then buried in the ancestral grave."

"Did the second uncle say anything?"

"Second Master said that it is up to the Duke of the country to make the decision. Now the old lady's spiritual seat has been established in the Second Master's residence."

It seems that the second uncle also wanted to find out a result for the old lady.

Since the father let go and allowed the second uncle to bury the little grandmother in the ancestral grave, the spirit seat in the ancestral hall in the mansion needs to be placed.

"Song Guanshi, order to go down and set up a tablet for the old lady in the ancestral hall. From today on, order people to keep watch every day."

Song Guanshi was stunned for a moment, but still complied with the second lady's order.

Song Jinyue did not go back to Ming Zhuxuan, but took Qiu Yun to meet the servants who had been serving in Shen's house earlier.

Everyone is now locked in a deserted courtyard.

There are guards every day.

The young man saw the second young lady coming, and hurriedly saluted respectfully, Song Jinyue signaled the young man to open the courtyard door.

Thinking that these women and maids have been hungry for the past few days, they must have no strength.

After all, these people haven't reported any troubles in the past few days.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw the mother-in-law and maidservants sitting weakly and slumped on the chairs under the corridor in the courtyard.

All of them were sallow and thin, with lifeless eyes.

When everyone saw the second young lady coming, there was a gleam of light in their eyes, but before they got up, several maidservants passed out on the ground.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but no one wanted to help.

It is really more than enough.

A woman in a light brown jacket looked a little better than others.

The old woman got up, her steps were flimsy, trembling, and she walked to the second young lady's side with three pauses.

The woman knelt on the ground and said in a hoarse voice: "Second Miss, please give this old servant a way to survive..."

"Then what will you trade with me for a living?"

Song Jinyue looked down at the woman, her lips were raised and she was full of smiles, her face was as warm as the spring breeze in March.

"I don't know what news Second Miss wants?"

Seeing that the woman seemed willing to speak, Song Jinyue ordered Qiu Yun to take the woman to the side room.

Once entering the room, the woman sighed, and then smiled wryly: "Second Miss, this old slave must know everything, and please Second Miss, give this old slave a way to survive."

Song Jinyue looked at the woman and motioned for her to sit down and talk.

Only then did I ask who the woman's name was, and where they all came from.

I have been hungry these days, and I have never eaten a sip of water.

It is conceivable how painful it was to physically and mentally destroy these people.

This woman's surname is He, she is a woman from a village in Dingzhou. Because her husband went hunting in the mountains and fell off the cliff in the early years, she became a widow at a young age, and she has no children under her knees.

She was sold by her parents-in-law to a family as rough envoy.

It's just that she has never seen the master's house. She has lived in that house for more than ten years, and because of her duty, she has become the housewife who takes care of the sanitation in the courtyard.

The people in this side hall all come from that family.

These people were originally women from poor backgrounds, and only after being taken care of by their masters did they get a place to live.

A few days ago, the steward of the master's house ordered her to bring these people into the capital.

Tell her to bring someone into the Duke's mansion to protect Shen.

Song Jinyue knew the rest.

"Mother He, were you bought by that family in Dingzhou?"

"The old slave had no intention of hearing the steward mention that it was the master's surname Xiang."

"Where is that house?"

"The second house in Xici Lane, Song'an Street, Dingzhou City."

Song Jinyue lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment before getting up.

"Second miss, that old slave..."

Seeing that she was about to leave, Mother He hurriedly got up and asked.

Song Jinyue stopped in her tracks, looked back at Nanny He, and smiled, "Nurse He, you are a smart person, tell them to be honest, and I will let you out after I have verified it clearly."

After saying that, Song Jinyue left the place with Qiu Yun without looking at Nanny He again.

Afterwards, she gave orders and ordered someone to deliver a meal a day.

The truth of what Nanny He said needs to be verified.

These people are all powerful wives and maidservants, if they are full of food and drink, they may cause trouble again.

Now that some news has been obtained.

As compensation, she ordered someone to bring them a meal every day.

You can't ask them to get into trouble after eating and drinking, just eat one meal and live as long as they can.

Song Jinyue went back to Ming Zhuxuan, changed her clothes, sat in front of the dressing table and let Qiu Yun comb her hair.

A picture suddenly flashed in my mind.

That is the two children in front of the Qin residence.

Although there was dust on his face, the boy looked very much like a person.

Song Jinyue's brows furrowed unknowingly.

Like who?
correct!

It's them!
She stood up suddenly, opened her eyes wide, and turned to look at Qiu Yun.

"Qiu Yun, I know where I saw those two children!"

The black lacquered and carved peachwood comb in Qiu Yun's hand paused in the air, she was startled for a moment, when she recovered, she heard what her young lady said, and immediately understood what her young lady said.

"Those two children are the sons and daughters of Imperial Doctor Xu!"

Qiu Yun's eyes widened in disbelief.

Doctor Xu's wife is Mr. Qin's aunt?
"It's them!"

Song Jinyue repeated.

She was absolutely convinced that these two children were the sons and daughters of Imperial Physician Xu, and she had seen these two children in Xu's residence before.

So, Mrs. Xu is the aunt Qin Sheng was talking about?

Song Jinyue had mixed feelings in his heart.

She sat down on the chair slumped.

Does he know how Doctor Xu died?
Song Jinyue shook her head violently, trying to put the complicated thoughts in her mind behind her.

She didn't know whether she should tell Qin Sheng about Imperial Doctor Xu.

But there are some things that Qin Sheng knows, and Qin Wan already knows.

It's just that at that time, the two of them didn't know that Mrs. Xu was actually their aunt.

Song Jinyue sat in a daze for a while, then came to her senses, she looked up at Qiu Yun, and said, "Qiu Yun, go and prepare a carriage, and you will go to Zhangfu with me."

Qiu Yun was a little worried about her daughter's current state.

He couldn't help persuading: "Miss, why don't you go tomorrow? You have been tossing around for so long today..."

Song Jinyue shook her head with a helpless wry smile, waved her hands, and said, "Go."

Qiu Yun had no choice but to wait and order a carriage.

Song Jinyue looked at the girl in the bronze mirror, feeling a little dazed for a while.

If Qin Sheng knew why Doctor Xu died, would he blame himself?Would Qin Wan complain that she shouldn't have entered the palace to see the queen?

But she doesn't regret it.

The safety of her aunt and the life and death of Zhang's family are what she will do her best to protect.

She just didn't know how to face Qin Sheng at the moment.

She comforted herself so much in her heart.Looking at the girl in the bronze mirror, she reluctantly pulled the corners of her lips.
