Chapter 869 Chapter 869
The two sisters-in-law chatted for a long time. Qi Yueniang also accompanied Song Guanzhou for breakfast. During the breakfast, Song Guanzhou asked curiously, "Sister-in-law, you have traveled to many places with Qin Ge'er. Do you know Yunzhou?"
Qi Yueniang tilted her head with a smile on her face.
"Why are you suddenly asking about Yunzhou?"
Song Guanzhou smiled faintly, "I saw this place name when I was reading this morning. Rendong told me that it was next to Jiangzhou, but sister-in-law knows that I have never even been to Jiangzhou, let alone Yunzhou..."
"I know it."
Qi Yueniang laughed and said, "I grew up in Yunzhou when I was a child."
Huh?
Upon hearing this, Song Guanzhou stopped Qi Yueniang who was about to leave, and said with joy, "Sister-in-law, tell me, what kind of place is Yunzhou?"
Qi Yue Niang rarely saw Song Guanzhou's eager eyes, so she smiled dotingly and sat down again.
"Yunzhou... is a good place."
Song Guanzhou's eyes lit up, and he immediately tried to please Qi Yueniang who had returned to the past, "Sister-in-law, please tell me, hasn't the Qi family always been in the capital?"
Qi Yueniang sighed.
"I was without a mother at a young age, and my grandmother felt sorry for me, so she took me in."
It turned out to be the case.
Song Guanzhou sighed, "How many years has my sister-in-law been in Yunzhou?"
“Five years is enough.”
Qi Yueniang sighed softly, "When I was eleven, my grandmother passed away, and my father thought about bringing me back to the capital, raising me for a few years, and then arranging a marriage for me."
Because of this, he left Yunzhou.
"The place has beautiful mountains and rivers, and the people are very simple. It's not as crowded as the capital, with cars running side by side and very noisy. Yunzhou is a small city, probably only as big as a market town in the capital, but every family builds a house with black tiles and white walls, which is solemn and elegant. From a distance, the wall lines are staggered in the blank space. Every family likes to plant trees and flowers..."
Speaking of this, Qi Yueniang seemed to have returned to her childhood.
"My grandparents' courtyard was built along the river. There were many fruit trees planted within the inner courtyard wall. My grandparents couldn't bear to see the riverside scenery, so they broke the rules and opened a door on the outer wall of the backyard. The river water is crystal clear all year round, and I often watch the water on the bank with my cousins."
Song Guanzhou and his two maids listened with great anticipation.
"That's great. Sister-in-law, please take us back to our hometown someday."
Qi Yue Niang lowered her eyebrows and said, "I do want to, but I'll have to wait until the future. My grandmother has been gone for a few years, and my grandfather is gone too. My relationship with my uncle's family has become increasingly distant."
The next time I mentioned Yunzhou, it was always in a dream that I refused to remember. But who would have thought that Song Guanzhou would take the initiative to mention it today.
The sisters-in-law laughed and talked for a long time, and Qi Yueniang said sincerely, "Yunzhou is really a good place. If you have a chance to visit the boat, go there."
"What you said makes me yearn for it. I must go there in the future."
Qi Yueniang stood up with a smile on her face.
"You are a capable girl, unlike my sister-in-law, who is trapped in the backyard. Just think of it as taking a look at it more for my sister-in-law. Believe me, Yunzhou is especially suitable for a girl like you who is good at both moving and quiet."
Wow!
Song Guanzhou immediately smiled brightly, "Okay, I have to believe what my sister-in-law says!"
After Qi Yueniang and Lanxiang left, Song Guanzhou was overjoyed. He looked at the contract again with a happy face, "It looks quite large. Let me read it carefully."
"Madam, I just saw it. It's a mistress entering the courtyard. Look."
After that, he pointed to the words listed in the deed and read them one by one. "The first entrance has two sitting rooms, one hall, the second entrance has three main rooms, one east and west wing room, the third entrance has three back rooms, two side rooms, and two wells, a total of thirteen rooms."
Dieyi sighed, "It's not small, it's bigger than our Shaohua Garden."
Song Guanzhou was very satisfied. "It looks like there is quite a lot of money. This birthday gift must have cost Silang a lot of money."
Instead, Lotus grumbled, "Madam, if the cousin of the Xiao family really promised you a three-courtyard house in Jiangzhou, you wouldn't be able to live here!"
Song Guanzhou stretched out his slender, white index finger and poked Hehua's forehead.
"In ancient and modern times, only people worry that there are not enough houses or that the mansions are not big enough. You, a little maid, are so useless that you are afraid that you can't live in it."
Lotus held her face in her hands and said, "Then we'll live here for three years and there for two years, but moving is hard."
"I really made you worried."
Honeysuckle laughed and was about to return it to Song Guanzhou, but Song Guanzhou waved his hand and said, "Just keep it. If things get bad in the capital, we'll pack up and go to Yunzhou."
Dieyi heard this and agreed happily.
"That's great. Sister Dong said it's not far from Jiangzhou. I can go visit the old ladies of the Xiao family when I have time. It's more comfortable than in the capital."
This house deed won Song Guanzhou's heart.
When Xu Lingbai and his sister came over, she couldn't hide her joy. Seeing this, Xu Lingbai also put his mind at ease, "Guanzhou looks good, I think he has recovered as usual."
"My dear cousin, the young lady has a broad mind and can take things easy."
"It's true!"
Xu Lingqiao sat down next to Song Guanzhou and asked about his health and food, which made Song Guanzhou laugh non-stop. "My eldest sister-in-law just showed concern for me, and now my sister is here too. It's such a blessing for me."
Are you lucky?
Xu Lingqiao sighed, "You have suffered after all. If we were blessed, we would have protected you from these disasters."
"It's good enough."
Song Guanzhou said to Xu Lingbai and his sister, "In a few days, when I am well again, I will host a small banquet and we can get together."
"Excellent thing."
Now that Xu Lingqiao has been with Song Guanzhou for a long time, she has become more active and is no longer as shy as before.
In terms of temperament, he is more generous.
Thinking of Song Guanzhou's idea, he agreed and said, "Call Sister Hua and Miss Lin'er as well. On that day, Sister Fanghui gave birth, which was very dangerous. Fortunately, the two girls were not afraid of danger and faced it seriously."
"Excellent. It's been a while since I last met Chonglou. By the way..."
Song Guanzhou thought of something else and called Dieyi over. "After lunch, discuss with your sister Dong and prepare some valuable gifts. First, you can thank Chonglou, and second, you can go to your aunt and say you are here to pay your respects to her on my behalf."
Dieyi was puzzled when he heard this.
"The Second Young Master came here yesterday..."
"He is him, and you are my maid. Tell my aunt the truth about my situation, and let the old lady feel at ease. In addition, if Wen Si and Youran are here, tell them too. We will have a small gathering in the future."
"Yes, Madam, I will prepare it right away."
Xu Lingbai had a rare opportunity without any social engagements, so he chatted with Song Guanzhou for a while and then went into the study. Song Guanzhou followed him in, and the two of them continued the accounts that had been interrupted for the past two days.
Once you start talking about it, there's no end to it.
Xu Lingqiao stood outside the door and sighed, "My body hasn't recovered yet, and my mind is full of these things again."
Honeysuckle covered her mouth and said comfortingly, "Young Madam is in good spirits, don't worry, cousin."
