Chapter 713 Chapter 713
Not to mention Lin Shan, even Xu Lingbai and his sister were filled with surprise.
"Second Young Master, why is Brother Linshan so happy?"
Qin Qingdong opened his folding fan and kept the secret, "We'll talk about it later. Let's go inside and chase after the couple first."
Lin Shan, who stayed behind to deliver the car to the Huang family, grabbed Chun Ge and asked in a low voice.
Chun Ge smiled evilly, "Brother, our Second Young Master said it was a happy event, so it must be a good thing. But, we little ones admire you very much."
It's even more confusing.
When Qin Qingdong, Xu Lingbai and Xu Lingqiao arrived at the main house, Song Guanzhou took a quick look to get a general idea of the scenery of the villa.
Especially the hot springs brought by the villa.
"Shiro, where are you?"
Song Guanzhou looked around the houses and couldn't see where the spring water could be led to. Pei An pretended to be mysterious and said, "I'll take you there later."
"It would be nice if I could swim."
The last time she was in the water was in Jin Fuyun’s small mountain village. The water was so freezing cold that she couldn’t help shivering when she recalled it now.
Pei An smiled softly, "Don't worry, I will definitely make you happy as your husband wishes."
As the couple chatted and laughed, Qin Qingdong caught up with them, waving his folding fan, "Ji Zhang, Guan Zhou, wait a moment."
Song Guanzhou looked back and saw that she was standing under the mottled shadows of the trees. The alternating light and dark shining on her body was as beautiful as a painting.
"Qin Er, you're not going to sing today?"
When Qin Qingdong heard this, he staggered and almost fell.
It was Xu Lingbai who held him up and saved him from falling. "Song Guanzhou, you're talking as if I were a boat girl's prostitute, trying to make a living."
Song Guanzhou shook his head, "That's not what I meant. If you, Qin Er, go into this business, you will definitely not be able to make a living."
Qin Qingdong frowned immediately, "I'm not even as good as Ji Zi?"
Song Guanzhou said as a matter of course, with a confident look on his face, "Brother, you are also a nobleman, born with a silver spoon in your mouth. Can you be so soft-hearted as to be a prostitute?"
Pei An looked helpless after hearing this.
"You two are not young, why do you act like children?"
Song Guanzhou covered half of his face with his fan, and he was merciful when he could, adding with a smile, "Besides, Qin Er doesn't have the jade-faced beauty of my Silang. If he really does that kind of work of serving others, I'm afraid he won't even be able to get a seat at the table."
puff!
Such bold remarks made even Xu Lingqiao unable to hold back her laughter, and she covered her mouth with her handkerchief.
Not to mention the other maids and servants.
Especially Chun Ge, who grabbed Alu's arm, stood on tiptoe and said in a muffled voice, "Young Madam is indeed very discerning. My Erlang has a bad temper. If he really goes, I'm afraid he will be beaten by my mother three times a day!"
Haha!
Qin Qingdong turned around and was about to kick Chun Ge, but Chun Ge was thin but agile and hid behind Alu.
Alu quickly put his hands on his chest and stepped back repeatedly.
"Second Master, I dare not speak like that—"
"Okay, Guan Zhou, you are only bullying Qin Er. It's not easy for him to have some free time. Don't ridicule him."
snort!
Song Guanzhou rolled his eyes, causing Qin Qingdong to laugh and cry, "Auntie, how did I offend you?"
"I heard that before Jin Fuyun left the capital, our famous Second Master Qin rode a horse to see her off."
Ok?
Qin Qingdong immediately stopped smiling, "Where did this rumor come from? How come I don't know about it?" He paused and thought about it, "No, I don't even know when Jin Fuyun will leave Beijing, so how can I see her off?"
Rumors?
Even Pei An came forward and asked Song Guanzhou, "Where did you hear that, madam? Did you hear it wrongly?"
Upon hearing this, Song Guanzhou called out "Diewu".
Diewu and Dieyi were tidying up in the inner room with their maids. When they heard Song Guanzhou calling out, they hurried out. When asked about this matter, Diewu was not afraid, "Second Master, you really didn't go to see her off? But I asked the people in the tea shop, and they all said that you are kind and righteous and cherish the old times. Miss Jin is lucky to have a close friend like you."
"The tea shop said so?"
Die Wu nodded, "The people in the tea shop said that someone saw you riding a horse outside the city and gave you a valuable gift."
Qin Qingdong's face suddenly darkened. "That never happened!"
Uh--
The whole hall was silent.
Pei An sighed, "I'll send someone to ask tomorrow. If the Jin family wants to get closer to us, there's no need to spread rumors like this—"
"Silang, I'm afraid everyone believes it."
After that, she asked about the day Jin Fuyun left Beijing. This date was easy to remember. Jin Fuyun left Beijing and Song Guanzhou went boating on the lake. The maids could tell the story right away. Qin Qingdong stroked his head and thought about the itinerary for that day, while Chun Ge beside him was also thinking hard.
Suddenly, Chun Ge exclaimed, "Second Master, I followed you out of the city that day."
Ok?
Qin Qingdong looked over and asked, "On which day did I leave the city?"
Chun Ge nodded heavily, "Mr. Jiang is not feeling well, and he sent someone to report the news. You can take me some thirty-year-old wild ginseng and rush to the old man's house in the village outside the city when you see the time..."
Qin Qingdong suddenly realized.
He turned to Pei An and Song Guanzhou and said, "Is it a coincidence? Sir, I was so anxious that I galloped on horseback and never got to the same place as the Jin family's convoy."
Not even a shadow was seen!
When Pei An heard that the master was not well, he hurriedly asked, "What happened to the master? I sent someone to check on him a few days ago, and he came back saying that although he was a little weak, he was in good spirits, and his appetite was the same as usual, no more, no less."
Qin Qingdong waved his hand, "The master is fine, but he is old. He was probably startled that night and had a severe cough. The next morning, Uncle Wang couldn't wake him up, so he sent someone to the mansion to report the situation."
"And now?"
"Don't worry, I asked a doctor to see me. He prescribed two doses of herbal medicine, and I felt better after taking them."
Pei An was relieved and sighed slightly, "Sir, you suffered a lot when you were young, and now that you are older, your body is really weak."
But there is nothing I can do, I can only live one day at a time.
"Silang, during the winter break, please take me to visit the master. He has been in the capital for so many years, and I have never been there."
After listening to this, Pei An felt much more relieved.
With a warm expression on her face, she nodded slightly, "Okay, sir, I've been thinking about it from time to time, but you were injured in the past and it was inconvenient for you to travel, so I put it aside just now."
At this moment, Qin Qingdong became the one who was unhappy.
He folded his fan, his face full of anger, "Jin Fuyun and I have long since parted ways, and now you dare to make up stories and talk nonsense about our past friendship!"
Pei An thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "It may not be the Jin family's instruction, but Erlang, don't take it to heart. If someone asks you one more question in the future, just deny it."
"Of course. What friendship do I have with the Jin family now?"
Duan Liangyuan's affairs were all orchestrated by the Jin family. Who in the Qin family didn't know about it?
