Chapter 628 You tell me, what is it?
Mrs. Qi looked at the front side, the reverse side of the word is very small, but also fell in the corner, at first glance looks more like a few ink spots.
It’s only on closer inspection that I realize it’s actually words too, very small.
It’s a date.
The handwriting is a little old, and the only reason it was thought to be an ink spot was because not only was it small, but it had been so long that the ink spot had melted away a bit.
Mrs. Qi looked at the date in consternation, and for a moment did not understand what date it was, the date on it had been thirty years by now, right, and did not know where her daughter had found the note.
Mrs. Qi does not understand not inside what in the end there is what mystery, and after looking at it, casually folded the note into the playbook, it may be so written, with the date said to write just, after all, with the date of the record, the daughter was still small at that time, how can it be related to the daughter.
Still small?
The hand pressed on top of the playbill suddenly stopped.
At that time, the daughter should have been born only a few days, right, the heart inexplicably, always feel that I am not forgetting something important, but carefully think about it and feel nothing.
The note that was originally going to be put into the booklet turned around and was put into the sleeve, always feeling that this date seemed to be known to him, but when he thought about it, he had no memory of it.
“Mrs. …” The granny was surprised to see Mrs. Qi put away the note.
“Put it away first!” Mrs. Qi said without thinking, her body leaning back and closing her eyes.
Seeing that Mrs. Qi looked like she didn’t want to talk, the granny didn’t dare to say anything more, and closed the two opera books, placing them to the side, since they were related to Missy, the Mrs. Qi would definitely ask Missy herself.
Another civet for a prince, another sister easy to marry, and such a date, as well as the two lines above, the mother-in-law tasted out some inappropriate meaning, this next section of the road, but also do not dare to talk to the dowager lady more, only quietly sitting on the side.
Although the carriage walks slowly, but finally arrived and parked in the parking lot of the Duke of Qi’s mansion, along the way, Mrs. Qi did not say anything again, just sitting quietly, her eyebrows slowly wrinkled.
The granny helped Mrs. Qi out of the carriage.
“Go to Old Lord Guo’s study first.” Mrs. Qi ordered.
In the study, hearing that the Dowager Lady had returned, the old Duke of State ordered someone to invite the Dowager Lady into the house.
The dowager lady left the people waiting around her outside and went into the old Duke of State’s study by herself.
Behind the book case, the old Duke casually waved his hand, signaling the Dowager Lady to be excused, “How’s it going, how’s it going?”
” Not good, the Qu Mansion seems to still not be able to see past the Marquis of Yongning Mansion, and feels that this Fourth Miss of their own family can marry better and higher.” After Mrs. Qi sat down on one side, she hooked her lips, her smile somewhat mocking.
The old Duke of State didn’t see the mockery on her face and frowned: ”How could this happen? Didn’t you say it was fine before? How come you can’t see it anymore?”
“Probably wants to climb another branch!” Mrs. Tai said.
The tone of her words finally brought the old Duke back to his senses, looking at the Dowager Lady with dissatisfaction, “Even if you want to marry higher, so what, this Fourth Miss of the Qu Mansion is the bloodline of our Duke of Qi’s Mansion, and it’s not like she deserves anyone else!”
“Yes, yes, yes, all can be matched, identity are equivalent, you have to think about it, the Duke of State, even if we recognize her identity, her identity is not to be seen in the light, if people know her identity, not to mention the Marquis of Yongning do not dare to marry her, no one’s family will dare to marry her ah!”
The dowager lady said with a straight face.
This was said with a moment of silence on the part of the old Duke of State, and with his head bowed and his face hardened.
“You said how you were so bold at that time, actually dared to do such a thing, if it was really discovered at that time, and you were in that kind of situation at that time, I’m afraid that at that time, all of us in the First House would have to accompany you with our lives for this idea of yours, how did you get so bold?”
Mrs. Qi rambled on.
This matter, when the old Duke first told her about it, she didn’t think anything of it, but then the more she thought about it, the more scared she became, and the more she thought about it, the more dangerous she felt.
This is the crime of deceiving the king ah! Who dares to receive such a crime, then the Duke of Qi’s house is such a situation, the big house all closed up, only their veins struggling to support, a bit of wind and rain, they could not withstand ah.
The old Duke of State didn’t say anything, his head lowered more and more, and the silence in the study was embarrassing.
Mrs. Qi felt that her words were a bit too heavy and sighed softly, “At that time, you really owed it to yourself to think about it!”
“I did owe it to my thoughts at the time!” The old Duke of State suddenly spoke.
The dowager lady was startled, but she was still very happy that the old Duke of State was able to respond in this way, and hastily nodded her head and said in a serious tone, “We have been kind to our elder brother and sister-in-law, even if we go to the nine springs in the future, our elder brother and sister-in-law should be grateful to us, and won’t blame us because of what happened to the Little Yue Clan.”
Thought the old Duke of China bowed his head, or because of the small Yue’s matter of self-blame, the dowager lady and persuaded, she is sincerely feel that the family has done enough, top of the crime of deceiving the king, to save the big brother and sister-in-law’s only bloodline, what else can the family do?
“Yes, we have done enough, we … but we …” The old Duke of State suddenly raised his head, his voice choking.
“Is there something else that the Duke of State is hiding from me?” Looking at the old Duke of State’s slightly red eyes, the dowager lady was silent for a moment and suddenly asked.
“It’s nothing!” The old Duke of State tried to calm down.
“Is it hard … to believe that there is something else about the little Yue’s, and you are hiding it from me?” Mrs. Tai and the old Duke of the country for so many years of husband and wife, for the old Duke of the country to understand is not a little bit of two points, especially today, today always feel vaguely uneasy in the heart.
“Nothing of the sort.” The old Duke of State shook his head decisively.
“Old Lord Guo, the faster you deny it, the more something is wrong.” The dowager lady said suspiciously.
“It is … really nothing, you think too much, I just think of Xiao Yue’s, think of big brother … for a time can not control, sad.” The old Duke of the country smiled bitterly and explained.
The dowager lady’s gaze fell on the old master of the country, looking up and down slowly said, “When the events of that year happened, I had only given birth to the child, and I didn’t have much energy to notice you, when exactly did you bring the child out?”
This matter Mrs. Tai has always wanted to ask for more details, but every time she asked, she was taken over by the old Duke of the country, and at this time, she could not control herself to ask one more question.
“Things have gone on for so long, what else to say.” The old Duke of China is again perfunctory attitude, waved his hand and said, “Well, since this marriage is not possible, we have another idea, we can ask the Qu family’s meaning, if the Qu family is interested, we can think of ideas to jade, always can not be aggrieved by this child.”
“Old Duke of State, are you really doing this because this child is a descendant of big brother?” Seeing how he was so committed and single-mindedly focused on Qu Mo Ying’s marriage, the dowager lady couldn’t help but ask.
The matter concerning Qu Mo Ying was different from the old Duke of State’s nature in any way.
Even if it is his own grandson, the old Duke of State will not be so attached, is it really because of the guilt of the Yue’s matter? How to look at the old Duke of State is a ghost in the heart.
The ghostly Mrs. Tai took out a note from her sleeve, and slowly handed it over in front of the old Duke of State, “On the way back, I bumped into a granny from the Liu House, and threw down two opera books in a hurry and panic, and a note fell out from inside, and you look at the date and the two lines written on it, what is the meaning of it, and how do I feel that this seems to be the section where the accident occurred in the beginning of the days.”
When Fang was in the carriage with her eyes closed, the dowager lady had already remembered some of the circumstances of that day, but not exactly, at that time she was in her monthly period and had only just given birth to a child, and things outside the house were all at the disposal of the old Duke of the State, and it would be chaotic again, and the entire Duke of Qi’s house was in disarray.
What she can do is to bring a few children around, both in the month also tired not light, to the present bad health, also has a large part because of the then did not raise the reason, but in the circumstances, she can help the old Duke of the country not much, as for the other is even more unable to do anything about it.
When the dowager’s paper was handed over, it was the date side that was shown to him first.
The old Duke of State’s brow furrowed after taking a look at it, his body shook when he saw the date on it, “This is not many days before Big Brother and Sister-in-Law’s sacrifice day.”
With just one glance, he recognized the date on it, and the old Duke of State had always remembered very clearly about the day of his elder brother and sister-in-law’s sacrifice at that time.
“You’ve been to the heavenly prison during that time, haven’t you? I remember you’ve seen it at least two or three times, and this was the last time you went?” The dowager lady tried to look calm.
The words came out in a nonchalant manner.
“Yes, this is the last day I will visit my sister-in-law.” The old Duke of State was reminded by the Dowager Lady, and after thinking about it, he nodded affirmatively.
“Is that the day you … went to bring the child out?” Mrs. Qi’s breath hitched a few times.
The old Duke of State had been reminiscing about that year’s events and hadn’t noticed Mrs. Qi’s outburst, and after thinking about it again, he said, “It should be.”
“That child … was brought back and sent away directly?” Mrs. Qi’s voice trembled.
She knew nothing about that incident, although it was because at that time, the Duke of Qi’s residence was in chaos, and she was in the middle of her monthly period, but the other main reason, it must have been that this child was sent away overnight, or else it was impossible for her to know nothing about it, it was impossible for her to know nothing about it for so many years.
“Yes … I am afraid to be discovered … overnight and wrote letters to send people to Jiangnan Yue.” The old Duke of the country said, this matter can not be hidden now, of course he will not hide it again, lest it cause the suspicion of the Dowager Lady.
“I remember … I remember that day … you had come over to see me … and then went to see the child again, and only after that did you leave in a hurry saying that something had happened. When leaving, I did not see you.” The dowager lady’s voice trembled with a few points of sharp, party in the carriage, some forgotten for a long time things, suddenly presented in the mind.
Only, whereas before it was faint and faint, now it was clear and certain.
“I …” The old Duke of the country did not expect the dowager wife will suddenly be difficult, a moment to be asked, stunned to raise his eyes to look at the red eyes of the dowager wife, actually do not know where to start.
“So, you … tell me, what is this?” Mrs. Qi didn’t wait for the old Duke of State to phrase it too much, her hand leapt over to turn the note over, and the script on it was clearly visible: Li substitutes for the peach, but treats Feng Jing as a horse coole
