New widow

Xia Yun's time in the Duke's Mansion was similar to that in the Chen's Mansion. If there was any difference, it was just that the people in the Duke's Mansion were extremely polite to Xia Yun. Xia Yun didn't know whether this was Song Zhen's order or because of something else. What, just more cautious.

In a blink of an eye, it was April [-]th, and the next day was the big day when the child was named and entered into the family tree. The whole government was also busy with this matter. Xia Yun had nothing to do, so he was still sewing in the corridor.

"Xia Yun, your embroidery work is really good." Qiuyue came over and said with a smile. Xia Yun stood up in a hurry: "It's nothing, I just do it every day. Sister, is there anything you want me to do?"

"It's nothing, but we haven't had a good conversation since you came in." Seeing that Xia Yun was still standing, Qiu Yue pulled Xia Yun to sit down together.

Xia Yun picked up the embroidery work again as usual and wanted to continue doing it, but Qiu Yue had already whispered: "I can't ask anyone else about this, I can only ask you, what are the girls and madam discussing these days? , but I am always uneasy in my heart."

What are you discussing? Xia Yun was moving the needle down to embroider. When he heard this, the needle was inserted into his finger.

"You have to be more careful." Qiuyue hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wrap Xia Yun's fingers. Xia Yun shook his head: "It's just a small poke, it doesn't have to be like this."

"So, what are we discussing?" Qiuyue stared at Xia Yun. Xia Yun lowered her head and said nothing. Qiuyue said softly: "I know that the girl will not hide this matter from you."

"Qiuyue, what you said is too harsh, I am just a subordinate.

"Xia Yun felt that Qiu Yue had a big misunderstanding and hurriedly retorted. Qiu Yue looked at Xia Yun: "You and I both know exactly what your identity is. "

"Qiu Yue, we have a head of house and a master. Even my own parents have to take a step back, let alone others." Xia Yun hurriedly stopped Qiu Yue's next words.

"But it's different after all." After saying that, Qiuyue leaned into Xia Yun's ear and said, "I'm not afraid to tell you. My parents are thinking about how many years I've been serving the girl. Before she comes out of the palace, please give me some advice. Let him go and find his own home."

There were many maids who were unwilling to follow her as a dowry. Xia Yun could also understand Qiu Yue's thoughts. Before she could talk more, she saw Aunt Wu walking in and said with a smile: "You two are actually making out, Miss Xia Yun, uncle." The madam is here, and she asked you to go out and pay your respects to your uncle."

Xia Yun responded hurriedly, stood up and walked out, but Nanny Wu did not follow. She just looked at Qiuyue and said, "You are usually smarter than Chunhua, but you can see it even more now."

"That's not what you said, mama. This girl needs two people, one should be light and talkative, and the other should be steady and clever." Qiuyue said with a smile. Mother Wu glanced at her and said softly: "You ask Xia Yun to ask, but you don't even think about it, is it you who is kissing her, or is it the girl who is kissing her?"

"Of course it's a girl..." Qiuyue covered her mouth as soon as she said this, and Nanny Wu patted her: "You are a smart girl, and I won't say much else. From now on, you have to Remember, don’t tell the whole story when you meet someone.”

"Of course I remember." Qiuyue was still smiling, and Nanny Wu was satisfied when she saw this.

Nodding: "Remember what I said, and serve girls honestly from now on. There will be many benefits."

Qiuyue said with a smile, there are many benefits. Serving girls naturally has many benefits. As long as this Duke's mansion lasts for a long time, they will be able to live in peace and stability, with food, shelter and clothing.

"This Duke's Mansion is about to be prosperous again." Mrs. Wu smiled and said to Su Qiao. Su Qiao had a usual smile on her face and her tone was still calm: "Thank you for taking care of me."

"What are you looking after? They are our nephews." Mrs. Wu's words made Aunt Su full of joy. Su Qiao looked at the child in Aunt Su's arms and said in a meaningful tone: "With your words, I feel relieved. "

"Isn't that why you specially posted a message today to call me here?" Mrs. Wu said, shaking Su Qiao's hand: "I have also heard some things about your mother's family. Tomorrow, I will Who dares to be an aunt to this child?"

"Thank you." Su Qiao still said this. Mrs. Wu patted her hand and said, "Why are you thanking me one by one now? It's different from the cheerfulness when we first met."

Of course Suqiao will not tell Mrs. Wu what she is going to do. Tomorrow, April [-]th, will be the big day for the child to be named in the family tree. It is also Suqiao's big day. Get rid of these rules, ignore these constraints, and get Free days.

Every time she thinks of this, Suqiao feels her heart beating loudly. Whoever loves these splendors and wealth wants it, but she doesn't like it. When Mrs. Wu was invited, she was naturally asked to promise that she would recognize her heir as her nephew. In this case, this child will be taken care of by the fifth wife and the Wu family will take care of it.

His uncle's family was also raised by Aunt Su. It can be said that the arrangement was very thoughtful. This was Suqiao's compensation for taking him away from his biological parents.

"I look at my niece. The more I look at it, the more I like it. Wait until next year, after Xiaoxiang passes away, and we can discuss marriage." Mrs. Wu reminded that although it takes three years for a virgin to observe filial piety for her parents, Song Zhen is even more filial to her parents. , biological mother, aunt, father. But there is no reason to stack them together and keep her for nine years.

That is to say, counting from the day of Song An's death, these three years will be completed. Discussing the marriage can be done as long as Xiaoxiang is born, and it is finalized after exchanging Gengtie. As for the other things, it is not too late to wait until Xiaoxiang is born. This can be regarded as a workaround to prevent someone from observing filial piety for too long and missing out. At the age of marriage, that is truly unfilial.

Song Zhen, who had been sitting quietly, heard that she was going to discuss marriage. She couldn't help but look up at Mrs. Wu, but said nothing.

"It's still some time before we get to Xiaoxiang, and there's no rush to say it then." Su Qiao gently blocked her back, and Mrs. Wu nodded: "What kind of people are there in the capital? You can start watching now to avoid getting it." At that time, I didn’t know the details of those people.”

These topics seemed to be of interest only to the elderly ladies. Song Zhen found them extremely boring, but could not leave and continued to sit aside.

"Xia Yun is here." Madam Huang lifted the curtain and whispered inside. Song Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. Mrs. Wu had already looked at Xia Yun who walked in. Although Xia Yun felt that it was strange for him to come for no reason, she was still respectful. Go down and salute.

"Get up, I see you are doing well now, and I feel very sad in my heart.

Rejoiced. "Mrs. Wu said with a smile. Xia Yun saluted again: "Thank you, madam. "
