The one who reported the loss was not Jiang Han, but the main butler of Jiang Family.

Seeing the Jiang Family Great Shangguan Family, Xu Shiqiu, who had just gotten up and did not have the time to train, frowned, with a face full of suspicion.

Mrs. Jiang's health was not good, he knew that, but he never expected that she would actually leave so quickly.

"The family already knows. After cleaning up, we will go pay our respects to their wives." Even though Xu Shiqiu was young, he was, after all, of the same generation as the Mrs. Jiang.

When the Chief Steward of Jiang Family heard Xu Shiqiu's words, he did not say much. He still had to report to someone else's house, but before he left, the young master of the house repeatedly reminded him to go to Xu Family first.

After the Chief Steward of the Jiang Family left, Dong Shu, who had heard the commotion, also stood up.

After changing into a plain white dress, Dong Shu sat in front of the dresser and combed her hair, while saying with doubt: "Last time I went to see Madam Jiang Family, although she had a sickly face, she did not look like she had run out of oil. How long has it been since then?

"I do not know about this matter. When we get to the Jiang Family, find a chance to ask Yanzhu." After saying this, Xu Shiqiu paused for a while before continuing, "This Jiang Han, my brother-in-law and I have indeed found out some things about him recently. Furthermore, looking at his normal behaviour, it seems that he does not wish to get too close to the Third Prince. "

Dong Shu didn't understand this, but after hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, she stopped what she was doing and looked at him seriously.

Xu Shiqiu saw Dong Shu looking at him, and then, he sighed and explained: "Jiang Family had boarded Third Prince's boat earlier. I originally thought that they would either follow her along her path to hell, or that they would be kicked off the boat by her halfway if their family wasn't able to do it. But from the looks of it, the business that Jiang Family was doing now was even better than when Jiang Han's father was here. Furthermore, his Jiang Family was being punished this time, and his relationship with the Third Prince Palace was slowly breaking away. The most important point is that Third Prince does not seem to be angry after seeing Jiang Family do this. "

After he finished speaking, Xu Shiqiu saw that Dong Shu somewhat understood what she meant, and so he continued, "Moreover, the reason the Jiang Family are related to the Third Prince Palace is also because of the Mrs. Jiang. Now that the Mrs. Jiang had gone, his Jiang Family must be protected by filial piety. When the Jiang Family is filial, who knows how this imperial court will look like. "

When Xu Shiqiu said till here, he was shocked. From the looks of it, the time that Mrs. Jiang died was truly a coincidence.

He was informed by his brother-in-law, and although he was a martial general, he could still be considered an official in the imperial court. Only then did he sense the peace and tranquility of the situation, and how did Jiang Han know about it?

Xu Shiqiu couldn't understand, but he didn't voice out this question. Instead, he pressed it to the bottom of his heart and prepared to go observe it at the Jiang Family today before discussing it with his brother-in-law.

Dong Shu did not wait for Xu Shiqiu to speak and continued to comb her hair. After she finished brushing her long hair, he ate a simple breakfast and went to see Yuanxi.

After confirming that Yuanxi was awake in the morning, and had eaten her wet nurse's milk and fell asleep again, Dong Shu finally returned to her room and called Yue Ping and Yue Yin over.

"The two of you stay behind and change shifts with Yue Zhi and the others to look at Yuanxi. I'll bring Yue Qian and Yue Rong along." After saying this, Dong Shu then looked towards the others and said, "Yue Ruo and Yue Xuan stay at home to rest. If I still haven't returned after noon, the two of you can go and exchange for Yue Qian and Yue Rong."

Dong Shu was still too young, so her Jiang Family was definitely in a mess today. She was reluctant to let Yuanxi go and suffer.

Even though Yue Ping and Yue Yin were not at ease with Dong Shu, they still knew why Dong Shu had arranged things like this.

Seeing that they had nothing to say, Dong Shu got up and walked out.

had already seen Old Madame Xu when Dong Shu was dealing with some matters. Old Madame Xu was an elder so even if the one who died in Mrs. Jiang was big, she still wouldn't be able to go to the Jiang Family on the first day.

So today, only Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu would go to the Jiang Family, so there was no need for Old Madame Xu to go.

Since Old Madame Xu didn't need to go to the Jiang Family today, Xu Shiqiu naturally reminded Yuanxi's wet nurse before he left. After Yuanxi woke up, he carried her to Old Madame's courtyard and waited there.

After he finished leaving all the matters to be taken care of, the sky was already bright and only then did Xu Shiqiu lead Dong Shu out the door towards the Jiang Family.

When Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu arrived at the Jiang Family, there was a white banner hung outside the Jiang Family gate. Looking at the arrangement, although Xu Shiqiu knew that the Jiang Family had a wide range of business, and there was definitely no shortage of these things in the shop, Xu Shiqiu still felt that the speed of the Jiang Family was too fast.

It was as though he had long been prepared.

When Xu Shiqiu brought Dong Shu out of the carriage, into the Jiang Family, and saw that the spirit hall was already set up, the feeling in Xu Shiqiu's heart became even stronger.

However, Xu Shiqiu did not reveal it on his face. He looked around, only to see that his second brother had already brought his two nephews over, and then he turned to Dong Shu and said: "Second brother is already here, and Second Sister-in-law is most likely here too. You will go and find them later, and ask Yanzhu about it when you have the chance."

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Dong Shu nodded at him and replied: "Hubby, don't worry, I will ask clearly."

Dong Shu was also confused in her heart, so even if Xu Shiqiu did not explain, she still had to ask Xu Yanzhu.

When Xu Shiqiu saw his second brother, Xu Xiaozhi also saw him and quickly walked forward.

With only a few people in Jiang Family, Xu Xiaozhi, the son-in-law of the Jiang Family, was naturally considered half a master, and had come to entertain guests who wished to pay respects to the Mrs. Jiang.

Not to mention, the person who came was a Xu Family cultivator.

"Third brother." Xu Xiaozhi had not even arrived, but he had already called for Xu Shiqiu in a loud voice.

As Xu Shiqiu was currently holding an official position, as soon as he called out "third brother", the other guests in Jiang Family also instantly focused their gazes on Xu Shiqiu.

Xu Shiqiu understood why his second brother called him so loudly. Outside, he was also willing to give his second brother some face, to satisfy his vanity.

As a result, he took a big step forward and respectfully greeted Xu Xiaozhi, "Second Brother."

Seeing Xu Shiqiu's actions, Xu Xiaozhi was exceptionally satisfied, and then he hurriedly called his two sons over to pay respects to the Third Uncle.

After Xu Yanlang and Xu Yanwei bowed to Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu, Xu Xiaozhi looked at Xu Shiqiu and said: Your Second Sister-in-law is in the mourning hall accompanying Yanzhu.

Hearing Xu Xiaozhi's words, Xu Shiqiu nodded his head and said: "Then, I will lead my wife to worship Mrs. Jiang first."

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Xu Xiaozhi immediately asked his eldest son, Yanlang to lead the way, as he was afraid that Xu Shiqiu would not know the way to the mourning hall.

Xu Shiqiu understood why his second brother would do this. He did not reject and followed Xu Yanlang to the mourning hall.

After giving the Mrs. Jiang some incense and burning some paper money, Xu Shiqiu directly opened his mouth and praised Xu Yanlang a few times in front of everyone.

's praises had made Xu Yanlang's ears turn red, and it was only now that he understood the meaning behind his father's request to his father to bring his Third Uncle here.

"Although Yanlang doesn't talk much normally, he does things in detail, just like what Third Brother said." When Madame Jiang saw her brother-in-law praise her eldest son, she hurriedly added in.

Jiang Han had no children yet. Today, other than Jiang Han and his, the ones guarding the mourning hall were the two Jiang Han brothers who were with and her at the side of the Jiang Family, as well as a nephew of Mrs. Jiang's family.

These two from Jiang Family were completely called out to fill the numbers. Everyone knew that the Jiang Family's heir was not very rich, so when they saw this situation, they did not say anything.

As for the nephew of Mrs. Jiang's parents, he looked timid and cowardly. If it wasn't for the fact that he looked exactly like Mrs. Jiang, he would not have been able to tell that he was Mrs. Jiang's nephew.

Taking advantage of the time while Xu Shiqiu was talking to Madame Jiang, Dong Shu glanced at the Spirit Hall's couplet, although she did not understand much, but she still took the opportunity to glance at Xu Yanzhu.

When he confirmed Xu Yanzhu's pale face, he was shocked and quickly used his sleeves to cover himself and lightly pull on Xu Shiqiu's sleeves.

Xu Shiqiu only looked at Xu Yanzhu after he sensed her movements: "Yanzhu, come over here. Your grandmother has a few words for your Third Aunt to say to you."

When Xu Shiqiu's words came out, Jiang Han, who was dressed in mourning clothes, whose head was lowered in order to return the greeting, finally raised his head and looked at Xu Shiqiu.

Not only that, in the next moment, he had even turned to look at Jiang Han, who nodded to him as a form of response. Jiang Han did not even bat an eye.

Xu Shiqiu did not let his wife and Xu Yanzhu feel embarrassed in the slightest when they were speaking softly. Not only that, when he saw Xu Yanzhu stand up and walk towards Dong Shu, he did not forget to ask Madame Jiang, "Second Sister-in-law, your wife has something to tell your wife to tell Yanzhu. Where do you think is a convenient place to speak?"

Xu Shiqiu was clearly showing that his own Young Girl wanted to whisper with his first niece. Yet, with his open and aboveboard attitude, he actually made it difficult for others to stop him, which was why they couldn't oppose it.

After all, Xu Shiqiu had made it clear that he was Xu Yanzhu's grandmother who had something to warn him about.

Everyone knew that Xu Yanzhu had grown up by Old Madame Xu's side, so they never doubted that the Old Madame Xu had something to say to him.

They all felt that it was because Old Madame Xu was worried that his granddaughter would not be able to handle this situation, so she gave her a few words.

Dong Shu had long agreed with Xu Shiqiu, so when they heard Xu Shiqiu's words, they also nodded.

When Dong Shu walked to her side, she extended her hand to hold Xu Yanzhu's hand. Only then did she confirm that there was something wrong with Yanzhu.

Under the Madame Jiang's lead, the two of them arrived at a remote house not far from the mourning hall. After the servants finished guarding the door, Dong Shu impatiently pulled Xu Yanzhu in.

"Yanzhu, why does your face look so bad?" After saying that, without waiting for Xu Yanzhu's reply, Dong Shu continued: "If you have anything to say to Third Aunt, then say it, Third Aunt will support you."

Originally, Xu Yanzhu's expression was still somewhat absent-minded. She only regained her senses when Dong Shu held her hand.

Seeing Third Aunt in front of him, whose eyes were filled with concern, the tears in Xu Yanzhu's eyes finally flowed down.

"Third Aunt, my mother-in-law was killed by Jiang Han."
