Spring Drunk Chang'an
Chapter 217 What virtue and ability am I?
Old Madam Song's face was extremely gloomy, she clenched her fists and gave a decisive order.
Song Bin gritted his teeth and nodded, "Don't worry, I will definitely bring that old woman back alive and make her confess everything!"
"I will never let her get away again!"
"Also, that old woman's granddaughter, Lai's maid named Nanzhu..."
"I have sent someone to do the job and they will bring it back tomorrow!" Old Mrs. Song said in a deep voice.
Song Bin nodded upon hearing this, but he also reminded her worriedly, "Tell them to do it quickly, don't arouse Lai's suspicion and cause a sudden disturbance."
"Don't you know whether I'm efficient or not?" Old Lady Song sneered and waved her hand impatiently. "I know my limits. You don't need to worry about me. Just bring that old woman Hua back. Liu Qingru and Chang'an..."
"The truth will then be revealed."
The matter of 'real and fake daughter', Mrs. Song had been investigating privately. After Song Bin came back, she took over the case directly. The old couple worked together, digging holes and finding connections, and they had already found out 80% or 90% of the truth!
Even if there is no substantial evidence, those little clues and little things are frequently turned up!
They were both 80% sure that Lai had indeed swapped the child.
That's why they were so cold to Liu Qingru. If that girl was the child of Lai and Liu Xiu, then it would really show the true love and affection between the Shi family and their daughter over the years.
All fed to the dogs.
The Song family is sincere and not stupid. From her various behaviors since she returned home with the Song family, everyone can see that she has no respect for the Song family at all. Instead, she looks down on her with a roll of her eyes.
She treated the Song family like dirt, like a worn-out shoe, and all she cared about was her father, the Duke. She even recognized her enemy as her mother and called Qu Qiutong "Madam"...
Yes.
Old Lady Song and Song Bin already knew about the agreement between Liu Qingru and Liu Xiu. They received the news on the night of their agreement. After all, Song had been the mistress of the Ningguo Mansion for twenty years. Even if they divorced, it was impossible for her to leave no connections at all.
Of course, the Song family is gentle and kind-hearted. If they say they will cut off the past, then they will cut off the past and will not use those people for anything anymore. However, Old Lady Song is not like that!
If she has connections, she would go to waste if she didn't use them. She was determined to avenge her daughter and grandson.
There must be no peace in the Ningguo Mansion.
So, she used the connections left by her daughter to keep an eye on the movements of the Ningguo Mansion. Qu Qiutong moved into the main courtyard and angered Old Lady Lai. Lai sneaked out of the mansion several times to meet Liu Qingru, including this time, when Liu Qingru went back directly and asked to return to the family tree.
She and Song Bin, oh no, it should be the Song family, probably all knew all of this.
Except for Song and Liu Yu.
Her daughter was too soft-hearted and sentimental, and Old Lady Lai didn't know how to talk to her without hurting her feelings. Besides, she had another thought. Now that she had found out that Liu Qingru and Chang'an were switched, she would explain it to her daughter. Maybe she would be less sad.
Old Mrs. Song became more and more anxious and urged Song Bin again and again.
The two men's men were so busy that they were banging their heads on the ground, digging holes in the door...
Finally, the news came back.
In Jiangli County, twenty miles from the capital, they found the old woman named Hua who had served in the delivery room when Song gave birth. Hua had served in the Song family's courtyard before. However, a few months after Song gave birth to her daughter, she was suddenly transferred away. In the following years, her family was like a plague. Aside from a little granddaughter named Nanzhu, the rest of the family...
Her husband, son, daughter-in-law, grandson, daughter, and all her relatives were either dead, sick, or sent to the village, and she herself died in an accident.
No one can be seen in life, no corpse in death.
Old Mrs. Song felt that this person was too suspicious. Her family had experienced so many tragedies, including fire and drowning, that seven or eight people had died in a few years!
An accident is an accident.
A second accident can be an accident!
But three times, five times, seven times, eight times...
Are they all accidents?
She didn't believe it, so she investigated the affairs of Mrs. Hua's family. Sure enough, she found Mrs. Hua. Although she served in the Song family courtyard, she was born in the courtyard of Old Lady Lai. After careful investigation, she found out that she was a companion of Old Lady Lai.
Aunt Lai is the distant niece of Old Lady Lai and was raised by her since childhood.
Mrs. Hua had a very close personal relationship with Concubine Lai. Before and after Song's birth, Mrs. Hua was inexplicably generous with her money. She was even the one who "dealt with" the "still baby" that Concubine Lai gave birth to.
Old Mrs. Song was convinced that she was related to the "real and fake daughter" incident in the past, so she sent people to dig deep into the ground to find her. The day before yesterday, she finally found her whereabouts. She was in the county town. Her people had blocked Mrs. Hua in the yard. As a result, the woman was so cunning that she dug a hole under the stove in the house and escaped.
However, her men also blocked the old woman in the county town and searched everywhere for her. It seemed that she could not escape.
Old Mrs. Song was ready to wait for good news, but Song Bin couldn't control himself and wanted to catch her himself.
"Go ahead, go ahead, and be careful."
She warned.
Song Bin shook his hand and nodded, saying, "Wait until I bring that woman back."
Then, he turned around and left.
The old couple were certain that they would be able to bring back Granny Hua this time. After all, the people chasing her were all veterans who had accompanied Song Bin back from the battlefield. Those elites had been at the dangerous border and on the battlefield for ten years, yet they were able to return safely. Their methods were truly remarkable.
Besides, Song Bin also went there. He could guard the border and capture enemy generals alive, let alone an old woman?
Even if she was given wings, she couldn't fly out of his palm! !
Song Bin strode out of the house on his horse and headed straight for the small county town.

At that time, Liu Changan and Xiao Chuo were completely unaware of this situation.
The two left the garden and walked side by side, and soon arrived at Xiao Chuo's yard. As soon as they entered the door, Xiao Chuo took her to the study and then pulled out a chair for her.
Liu Changan was a little flattered.
The prince pulled the chair.
How can she be?
"Sit down. Don't you want to hear about Young Madam Sun?" Xiao Chuo raised her chin slightly, motioning Liu Chang'an to sit down.
"Oh~"
Liu Changan bit his lip and sat down on the chair obediently. He placed his tender white hands on his knees, tilted his face upwards, and looked straight at her with his watery almond eyes.
That look is so cute and naive.
Xiao Chuo's smoky eyes couldn't help but shake. He pulled out a chair and sat directly opposite her.
The two looked at each other.
Liu Changan felt embarrassed and lowered his head suddenly.
Xiao Chuo's Adam's apple moved slightly.
The air suddenly became quiet, and faint sunlight shone through the window, casting a golden glow. Fine dust fluttered between the two of them.
It was like a golden thread connecting the two people.
