Even after returning home, Ruan Xiaojiu still felt that this matter was a little unbelievable. He looked at Su Yao hesitantly and said, "Miss, this matter is really my fault. I... I actually revealed my whereabouts, and I was found by someone with no foundation..."
It is also incredible that Diewu would come back from other places.
Ruan Xiaojiu was worried: "Miss, do you want me to check if she was instructed by someone behind the scenes?"
He found it a little ridiculous.
Su Yao knew that Die Wu was telling the truth. No matter whether it was Boss Duan or Boss Ma, they would not care about the life or death of Hua Niang.
And now that Boss Duan has started working for her, there is no need for him to do this.
However, it is never wrong to be cautious in everything. It is right that she wants to help others, but she does not want to be Mr. Dongguo.
Motioning Ruan Xiaojiu to do it, Su Yao rubbed his eyes and took a breath tiredly, and Yan Cao came in quickly: "Miss, the He family sent a letter."
Su Yao sat up suddenly.
Mrs. He had been in Qingzhou for a long time and had sent letters back during that time, but the letters did not say anything, just to report that she was safe. This made Su Yao feel uneasy. She had sent several groups of people over there in the past few days. Originally, if there was no news, she had planned to go to Qingzhou herself.
She didn't have time to rest, but hurriedly changed her clothes and rushed to Kangping Garden.
Old Madam Su and Su Xingyi were both there. Second Madam He was also sitting on the huanghuali armchair at the bottom, crying to Old Madam Su: "Who could have thought that things would turn out like this?"
Su Yao's heart skipped a beat. Seeing Second Grandma He crying, he felt that something was wrong. Without caring about anything else, he hurriedly walked in and asked Second Grandma He: "Aunt, has something happened to my grandmother?"
He Er Niangniang hadn't had time to wipe away her tears. When she saw Su Yao, she grabbed her hand and shook her head and cried for a while, "They said... they said my brother-in-law is gone."
Su Yao didn't react for a moment.
It was Old Lady Su who sighed and said, "It's your uncle."
Zhang Minghe
Su Yao realized that the man his aunt He was married to was Zhang Minghe, the prefect of Qingzhou. They had always been deeply in love with each other. It was said that this uncle Zhang treated his aunt He very well and never scolded her loudly.
Good people... ..
Su Yao thought about how long Mrs. He had been gone, and couldn't help asking, "Why did she die suddenly when she was fine?"
This question seemed a bit disrespectful and a bit strange.
Wang Yuerong saw that Second Grandma He seemed to have no idea how to answer, so she coughed and said, "Yes, aunt, please stop crying. What's going on?"
Mrs. He shook her head and said, "It is said that... your uncle..."
Mrs. He was unable to speak.
Old Mrs. Su couldn't help but frowning.
Wang Yuerong also looked at her strangely, wondering why she was hesitating.
But Su Yao knew that it was not a good thing, otherwise, Mrs. He would not have delayed for so long and would not have mentioned it in her letter home.
She sighed: "What is it? Aunt, you don't have to hide it from us. Just tell us directly."
Those present were all close relatives, and none of them were incapable of experiencing things, so there was really no need to hide it.
He Er Niangniang lowered her head and then raised it again, and said somewhat awkwardly: "Yes, it is said that he died of a stroke immediately."
The wind is coming.
As soon as these three words were spoken, everyone present had different expressions and the room fell completely silent.
Old Mrs. Su didn't expect that she would die in this way, and her expression was strange for a moment.
Wang Yuerong and Su Xingyi were married, so they had naturally heard this term before. They looked at each other and both found it a little unbelievable. After all, such a way of dying was too absurd.
Su Yao also raised his eyebrows in surprise.
She remembered that Aunt He and Zhang Minghe had always had a good relationship. They talked about almost everything and treated each other as equals. How could...
"What about grandma and aunt?" In the end, Su Yao just asked the question that concerned her most in a low voice. What she had always cared about was actually Mrs. He's safety. Other things were really not that important to her. Although Zhang Minghe's sudden stroke was really surprising, there was nothing to discuss about such things.
"I'm already on my way back." Second Grandma He had actually been feeling very upset, but now that she had spoken out, she felt much better. She shook her head and said, "I heard that my eldest sister was ill, so your grandmother stayed in Qingzhou for a while to wait for her to recover. She stopped and started on the way back... It will take at least another half a month for her to come back."
It seems that Mrs. He went to Qingzhou for this matter and there was no other trick.
Although Zhang Minghe's death was somewhat unexpected, many things in the world are difficult to predict. Su Yao felt relieved and said no more.
Second Madam He refused to stay for dinner, saying that she had many things to do at home, so Wang Yuerong sent her to the second gate.
Old Mrs. Su called Su Yao to stop her and discussed with her: "Yaoyao, are you still going to the paddock? I'm afraid you won't be able to hold on."
Su Yao knew that Old Lady Su was worried, so he laughed when he heard this: "I was just about to tell Grandma that I'm afraid I still have to go to the enclosure."
Old Mrs. Su didn’t quite understand: “You don’t usually like lively occasions…”
"The Empress Dowager is going. Didn't the Eleventh Princess send a maid to look for me? She said that the palace hopes I will go." Su Yao gently comforted Mrs. Su: "This time I am going, His Majesty and the Empress just hope that I can accompany the Empress Dowager and the Eleventh Princess. Nothing will happen."
Old Mrs. Su suddenly realized.
It turns out that this is what the person who came from the palace said before. She asked why Su Yao wanted to go to the enclosure.
Knowing that it was the Emperor and Concubine Pang's intention, Old Lady Su was no longer so worried. She hummed and reminded her, "You should also be careful. Don't get involved in anything. Come back safely."
She seldom gave Su Yao such instructions before. Su Yao noticed that Old Lady Su seemed to treat him a little differently recently, but he still agreed to what she said.
While people were talking about the Qiuwei, the Princess Mingchang Mansion, which had been quiet for a long time, also became lively.
Li Jinniang looked at the album brought by the embroiderer and picked out a few new patterns with bright eyes: "These are it, make them look better for me."
She was under house arrest for a long time, and later her family exempted her from house arrest, but her opportunities to go out were very limited. This time, she was finally able to go out and play because of Qiu Wei, and she was so happy that she was going crazy.
"You just love to have fun." Madam Li walked in with a smile and took a look at the patterns she had chosen. Although she said so, she still nodded to the embroiderer and said, "These are the ones. The county lord will wear them when he goes hunting. You should make them more carefully."
