Chapter 688 The Return
Gu's carriage is big enough for Xie Yuanniang and the two children to lie in. The rain hitting the carriage makes a loud noise.

Brother Heng thought it was fun, so he didn't go to bed until very late after playing.

Brother Zhan was treated like an adult since he was a child, and there has never been such a childlike thing. Candles were lit in the carriage, and Xie Yuanniang smiled when she saw Brother Zhan's face.

In the middle of the night, Xie Yuanniang heard a bang in a daze, and hurriedly opened her eyes, first to see that the two children hadn't woken up, then opened the curtain and looked outside, it was dark outside, but with the light of lightning, Xie Yuanniang could see The station fell down, and then there were exclamations of people.

Xie Yuanniang asked the secret guard to help, and after the curtain fell, she couldn't help sighing, "I just hope that people are okay."

It was late at night, and it was raining heavily outside. Xie Yuanniang fell asleep again in a daze. When she woke up the next day, she was awakened by the people around her. When she opened her eyes, she found that the second master was playing with two children.

"Second Master, when did you come back?" Xie Yuanniang sat up.

Gu Yuan laughed, "Just tell them to keep your voice down, it still wakes you up."

Then he said, "I came back at night and saw the post station collapsed. I took people over to have a look. Only two people were injured, and the others were fine."

No need to explain, Xie Yuanniang also knew about her moving into the carriage, the hidden guard must have told the second master immediately, otherwise the second master would not be nervous at all.

"Is everything done over there?"

Gu Yuan nodded, "People have taken precautions in advance. The embankment collapsed, and people moved away, but there was some loss of property."

Xie Yuanniang nodded, because the post station was down, so the group hurried on their way, and Xie Yuanniang also found that the carriage had been moving, it seemed that they were already on the way.

Because of the rain, the road was not easy to walk, and it took four days to get back to the Confucian Mansion. On the way, Jiang Yi came back several times to report the news, and Gu Yuan took care of the matter in the carriage.

The post stations along the way were also full of people, and they lived in the carriage at night.

In the Confucian mansion, Xiao Shu has been worried these days. He was relieved when he heard that his daughter had returned, and went out against the rain.

Xie Yuanniang felt guilty, "Mom, why did you come out? Don't get too cold."

"You also said that after walking for so many days, how can I not worry about the water rising again?" Xiao Shu was happy to see that her daughter and grandchildren were fine.

After the group returned to the house, Xie Yuanniang told all the things on the way, "Mother, are there any guests in the house?"

"Someone is here, so it's not considered a guest." Xiao Shu didn't like people from the Song family, but she was surprised, "Why do you ask this?"

Xie Yuanniang told what happened on the road, and Xiao Shu became angry when she heard it, "Nonsense, didn't he ruin the Kong family's reputation."

"Mother, it's not over yet. She was so courageous that she asked the servant to watch me in secret. It seemed that she planned to take revenge in the future, but she was finally arrested by the guard next to the second master. This We brought it back together this time." Xie Yuanniang really didn't expect to do such a thing.

Xiao Shu was also tongue-tied, "She can do this too? She's so bold, this matter won't work, you have to talk to your father, let your father find your elder brother, it's their room, let them take care of it I didn't care about these things before, especially the Song family, who came from a small family. Back then, I disagreed with your elder brother making this marriage for Brother Hong. The Song family was born as a teacher, but after all, they came from a small family. The family has no background at all, let alone what kind of good girl such a family can raise. How is it now? Is it right?"

Xie Yuanniang comforted, "Now the children have grown up, Brother Yu and Sister Qian are both so old, just for the sake of these two children, mother will bear it."

"When did our Kong's family have a concubine? But you see, she made a fuss out of it. She's asking for no fun. Now her natal family has people doing these things again. It's bad for the reputation of the Kong family. Even the son-in-law's reputation dares to take advantage of it. It's really embarrassing." Xiao Shu didn't care about that, she was a mother-in-law, so she had someone call Liu over, and told the matter, with a particularly stern tone, "Song's side can no longer indulge, and now even the Confucian Mansion and Gu's reputation is dared to be used, this is what we saw, what did they do if we couldn't see it?"

Mrs. Liu was also too lazy to take care of Mrs. Song's daughter-in-law. The main reason was that her son Hong Ge did not come back.

Mrs. Liu immediately agreed, and she apologized. After leaving her mother-in-law's yard, she went directly to Mrs. Song's yard. Mrs. Song was talking to her sister-in-law, but she didn't know that her mother-in-law came without making a sound.

Seeing Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Li also smiled and said, "My mother-in-law is here, come in and sit down quickly, you still come here on a rainy day."

Liu Shi smiled, "You misunderstood, I didn't come here to see you, I just have a few questions to ask."

The smile on Li's face froze.

Song also felt that her mother-in-law was too disrespectful to her natal family, "Is there something wrong with mother?"

"Yeah, this matter has something to do with your natal family. It just so happens that your natal sister-in-law is also there, so I'll ask about it face to face." Mrs. Liu glanced at Mrs. Li, "I heard that your sister-in-law didn't give you face when she met her on the way here." people?"

Mrs. Li was slightly taken aback, "How does my mother-in-law know? Could it be that they know each other? Hey, don't mention this, my mother-in-law asked who the other party belonged to, and she was thrown out when she didn't know. The situation scared even me arrive."

Mrs. Li was also shrewd, and immediately said that the other party was bullying others, and picked out her own fault.

Mrs. Liu raised her eyebrows and sneered, "Why didn't I hear that? The in-laws and sister-in-law were acting outside in the name of the Kong family and the Gu family, and even robbed other people's houses at the post station. Our Kong family didn't do such a domineering thing." people did."

Song's face changed, "Mother, is there a misunderstanding here?"

"Is there any misunderstanding?" Mrs. Liu didn't wait to see Mrs. Song, "If it wasn't for Brother Yu and Sister Qian, you would have been dismissed and returned home long ago. You thought you could stay in the Confucian Mansion? It's your family, You have the guts to bully others outside and ruin the reputation of the Confucian Mansion and the Gu Mansion."

"Mother-in-law, you can't listen to one side's words, believe what the other party says, that's a frame-up." Li is still trying to explain.

Mrs. Liu was too lazy to be hypocritical with them, "The person you bullied was a woman with two boys, right? Ask Mrs. Song, who is the other party?"

When Mrs. Song heard that a woman was bringing two boys, she didn't react at first, but then she understood immediately, and her face changed, "Mother isn't talking about little aunt, is she?"

"Little aunt? What little aunt?" Li Shi was completely confused.
