"Madam, there is an old man at the door. He said he came from Jiangnan to look for his relatives. The general is not here. General Lou Yi asked if you would like to see him?"

Gu Feiwan was looking at the account book. Today was the day Shen Yujun was coming back home, so she was a little absent-minded.

After hearing the sergeant's report, he simply closed the account book and said, "Take it to the flower hall, I'll go and see it."

After tidying up a bit, Gu Feiwan walked out of the study. Halfway through, he suddenly realized that the old man the soldier had just mentioned was from Jiangnan!

"Go, call the general back and tell him that something important has happened in the palace!"

Gu Feiwan casually pulled over a patrolling sergeant and gave him urgent instructions.

When the soldier saw her serious expression, he immediately ran out as if he was on a Hot Wheels!

They have all received strict orders that the Madam’s affairs are all big matters. Now that the Madam says it is a big matter, it must be a huge matter!

Gu Feiwan walked quickly to the flower hall. The old man who was waiting just picked up the teacup and saw Gu Feiwan. He looked excited and looked at her with tears in his eyes for several times. Then he realized that his behavior was inappropriate and bowed to the ground:

"Meet the General's wife!"

Although Gu Feiwan had some guesses in her mind, she had not confirmed anything yet. She just gave him a soft and fake hand: "Hurry up and get up. The weather in Beijing is not as good as that in the south of the Yangtze River. The ground is still very cold!"

The old man choked up a little: "Madam, you have good intentions, but I am ashamed!"

"Old man, please get up quickly and sit down and talk slowly." Qinglin helped him up and refilled the hot tea: "You said you came to look for relatives. I wonder who in our house you are related to?"

Gu Feiwan looked at the old man. His face was weather-beaten and he was wearing coarse cloth. There were holes in his elbows and other joints, but they had been carefully mended.

Although his clothes were worn out, they were clean and tidy.

He is a very particular person!

"I am an attendant of the Jiangnan Sheng family's master. My surname is Wen, and I am the third in line. I am looking for the young master of our Sheng family."

Wen San wiped his tears and said, "We should have arrived in the capital before the New Year. It's all my fault. I was so useless that I couldn't walk anymore after getting caught in the rain. As a result of this delay, we have been here until now."

"Uncle Wen, thank you for your hard work, but who is your young master in this mansion?" Gu Feiwan asked.

"It's the general!" Wen San looked up, tears in his eyes: "General Ning Weizhou is my master's grandson!"

Gu Feiwan suppressed his excitement and said, "I heard from the general that my grandparents' home was in Jiangnan, but many years ago there was a fire and my grandparents' home was burned to ashes. He couldn't find his relatives, so he joined the army."

"Speaking of this, the master of the family is filled with remorse. It was all caused by the thieves who wanted to destroy the Sheng family's century-old foundation!"

"The master said that he felt sorry for his grandson and had caused the general to suffer so much. However, since the fire, he was shocked and angry, and his health has deteriorated day by day. Now he is bedridden. He just wants to see the general again!"

"Since you are all still here, why don't you go find the general earlier? He has always thought that you are all gone. He has never dared to set foot in Jiangnan for so many years, for fear of being hurt by seeing the things!" Gu Feiwan complained a little. She had seen Ning Weizhou standing silently by the window at night when he couldn't sleep.

Gu Feiwan felt heartbroken whenever he thought of the loneliness of that figure.

What a good young man, born into a noble family, but having to wander around all the way!

"Madam, you don't know that on the day of the fire, the main door was blocked by thieves. The master and I hid in the secret room and escaped. However, the secret room had been in disrepair for a long time, and the smoke from the ground poured in. We were all unconscious for two days before we woke up, and the master didn't wake up until ten days later!"

Wen San covered his face and spoke incoherently: "We survived by relying on the food and water we snatched when the fire broke out. After the master woke up, he opened the secret room mechanism, and when we went out we saw a scorched earth. At that time, there was chaos and the master was dying. I went to the place where the young master often played, but I couldn't find anyone, and I didn't dare to go too far... I'm sorry to the young master..."

An old man cried like a child. Although Gu Feiwan had some complaints, he couldn't continue.

"The general will be back soon. If you are really from his maternal family, he will be very happy."

Wen San listened and nodded repeatedly: "When we were near the capital, I heard from passers-by that the general had married. I am really happy for the master. Now I have met the lady. She is really beautiful and kind. She and the young master are a perfect match!"

Gu Feiwan covered her mouth and laughed: "I'm afraid Uncle Wen must have heard a lot of bad things about me, right?"

Wen Sanyi stiffened his neck and said, "Madam, you don't have to listen to what those gossipers say. The young master has always been very opinionated. How could the person he chose be wrong?"

It turns out that love for the person extends to the dog in it!

As the two were talking, the door darkened and Ning Weizhou's anxious voice came:

"Fei Wan, what happened?"

Before Gu Feiwan could answer, he was embraced: "Is it the Ning family who is causing trouble again? Have you beaten them out? Are you okay? Let me see!"

Gu Feiwan pushed him, her face slightly red: "Someone is here!"

Ning Weizhou frowned and looked to the side.

"My young master!" Wen San knelt down again: "I am glad to see you at last!"

Ning Weizhou's body froze, his eyes full of disbelief, his hands trembling slightly as he held Gu Feiwan:

"Wen Bo?"

"Eh! If I could hear the young master call me again, I would die immediately and close my eyes!"

"Hurry up and get them up!" Gu Feiwan poked Ning Weizhou.

When he first saw his relatives, Ning Weizhou was stunned!

After being poked twice by Gu Feiwan, Ning Weizhou finally reacted and quickly let go of Gu Feiwan and went to help Wen San:

"Hurry up, where's grandpa? Is he here?"

When Ning Weizhou asked about his grandfather first, Wen San felt relieved and sad:

"My dear, the master has been bedridden for many years. His health is getting worse day by day. The doctor said that he may not survive until the end of the year!"

Ning Weizhou felt like he was struck by lightning!

"How could this happen? Grandfather has always been in good health!" Ning Weizhou grabbed Wen San's arm, his face full of anxiety:

"Didn't you find a good doctor? I'll take him to the capital right now and ask the imperial physician to treat him!"

"My young master, the master fell ill because of depression. He hasn't heard from you for many years. He was too worried and his health has become worse!"

Wen San clung to Ning Weizhou's arm and said, "The master has always felt sorry for you. He brought you to Jiangnan but never took good care of you. He said that when he saw the young lady, he didn't know how to explain it!"

Ning Weizhou's eyes gradually became moist. The young lady mentioned by Wen San was his mother.

"You haven't seen each other for a while, so have a good chat. I'll go prepare some wine and food to entertain Uncle Wen." Gu Feiwan patted Ning Weizhou lightly and left with Qinglin and Qingshuang.

Wen San bowed quickly: "Thank you, Madam!"

When he reached the hanging flower gate, Gu Feiwan looked back and saw two people sitting opposite each other in the flower hall, holding hands.

Ning Weizhou asked anxiously, and Wen San kept answering.

She blinked her eyes hard, which slightly relieved the soreness.

The relatives who I thought I would never see again are reunited again.

What could be more worthy of a drink than this?
