Although both Mrs. Su and Liu said that Wei Changying's return to the imperial capital at this time would be a good opportunity to help Shen Jiekun with his marriage, after visiting Pei Meiniang, Wei Changying hadn't had the time to inquire about Shen Jiekun's marriage preparations Song Yuwang was still waiting for her to visit her.
According to the Laws of Wei, the mourning of a grandmother by a foreign relative is a small service in the "five services" and lasts for five months.
The old lady passed away in March, and Wei Changying is still wearing mourning, so it's not convenient to visit other people's homes or go to Jiangnan to offer condolences. But uncle and first cousin also have filial piety in the body, but also be taken away from the love in the imperial capital, that is how to have to run a trip, not to mention uncle is still from the beginning of the spring on the sick to the present.
To be honest, I heard that Song Yuwang had been sick since before the beginning of spring, and could not even get up to go back to his hometown to offer condolences for his mother's death, and all of the princes were discussing the situation, one of which was that they needed to stay at the imperial capital to make a statement or to work together on a major event, and the other was that Song Xinping, the Duanhui Gong, knew that his son was not in good health, and was worried that his life span had been compromised by his traveling back and forth. The first time I saw him was when he was a young man, and he was a young woman.
So Wei Changying was very worried about his uncle's condition, especially after asking her husband that the Song family didn't invite Duanmu Xinmiao to come over to diagnose him, because Song Yuwang believed that men and women are not related, even if Duanmu Xinmiao was his junior.
The Duanmu family has been repudiated by the Song family, and the two families don't seem to have to ask for Song Yuwang. Since he put out a righteous gentleman's style, I think the Duanmu family is unlikely to make a fool of themselves it is possible that Song Yuwang is afraid of the Duanmu family because of the Duanmu colorless matter to take the frame of mind to deliberately say so.
On the third day after returning to the imperial capital, Wei Changying sent a post to the Sikong Mansion to prepare for the visit on the following day.
But I didn't expect to see the post in the morning, and then the servant came back and reported that the Song family had politely rejected Wei Changying's request to visit.
Wei Changying was greatly surprised and asked, "Do you know why?"
"Grand Duke Song said it was because Lord Sikong has repeatedly dreamed of Elder Lady Wei in the past few days, and his condition is getting heavier by the day. Before she died, Old Lady Wei often wrote to Lord Sikong, asking him to take care of you, Young Lady. That's why Grand Duke Song is worried that after seeing Young Lady, Lord Sikong will think of Old Lady Wei more and more, which will not be good for the patient." The subordinate servant carefully said.
"Uncle ......" Wei Changying's heart jumped when he heard this, and there were some ominous omens the Song family's heir is thin, and although his first cousin is smart, he's still young compared to the dynastic princes.... ...At this juncture, uncle must not be in trouble!
Thinking of this her heart can not help but secretly called bad Zhao Fu Liu bias in the second half of last year when pregnant, so that originally last September will be accompanied by Shen Zangfeng and his party to return to the imperial capital of the season to sick uncle and nephews halfway back to the Western Liang not to mention that this time their own early return to the capital, there is a May only landed in the Ji family tree for the sake of the Ji family members are still stranded in the Western Liang ...... this way. The imperial capital side of the reliable doctor, in addition to the eunuchs in addition to only a Duanmu Xinmiao can count on point.
And Song Yu Wang does not want to invite Duanmu Xinmiao ...... to drag from the beginning of spring to now, even if the small disease are to be dragged into chronic disease. What's more, the Song family is not unable to afford to hire a doctor, long illness, a quasi uncomplicated.
Wei Changying thought for a long time, but decided to be an uninvited guest to go to the Sikong Mansion in spite of his first cousin's polite refusal, and to ask his cousin about it face to face.
The big deal is not to go in and visit Song Yuwang, just ask Song Jaitan?
She set the idea, on the one hand, people to report to Mrs. Su, on the other hand, sent people to the front yard to invite Shen Zangfeng. After all, Huo's, Min's, Song in the water of these female family members of the Sikong House, have returned to Jiangnan to condolences mourning, although she is Song in the field's first cousin, this time alone to visit the door is also easy to attract discussion. Good in Shen Zang Feng these two days is not very busy, said in advance tomorrow by him to accompany himself to go.
However, Song Zaitian's refusal now made Wei Changying decide to rush over and inquire at this very moment, since she wanted to speak with her husband.
With Wei Changying and Shen Zangfeng's family resembling each other and having two first-born sons, her mother-in-law and husband were extremely honored. Shen Zangfeng was in the front yard giving Shen Shuguang his first lesson because of his proximity, so he came back as soon as he was invited by the following people.
When Wei Changying saw him coming alone, he asked, "Where's Guang'er?"
"I left Shen stack to watch him tracing red." Shen Zangfeng said, "Later we will go to the Song residence, if we don't return for a long time, someone will send him over to the upper room and ask father and mother to look after him."
Shen Shuguang was given to his mother-in-law to raise when he was a few months old, and now he is lively, cute and clever, although this cleverness has been brought up a bit crooked by his nephew Shen Shuming, but a little bit of correction will be enough. Wei Changying was relieved that her in-laws were taking care of the child, and she talked about her visit to the Sikong residence "My first cousin said that it was inconvenient for uncle to meet with her, but she politely refused. Originally, at this moment in the Sikong residence, only the first cousin to serve uncle's couch, think also busy. Since he refused, he shouldn't be disturbed again. But I heard from the posters that my uncle's condition is worsening, and I don't feel at ease. I want to go and visit cousin now and ask him what's going on."
When Shen Zangfeng heard that Song Yuwang's condition had worsened, his gaze condensed and he said, "This is as it should be."
Both husband and wife decided to go out, it so happened that the servant who sent to report to Mrs. Su also came back and said, "Madam said that the young lady and the son can go despite that, even if they can't see Lord Sikong, they can also be relieved by asking the Song family's eldest son for an understanding."
That servant saw that there were no idle people to his left, and whispered Mrs. Su's speculation, ''Second Duke Song previously repudiated the Duanmu family's young lady to return to his mother's home. I'm afraid it's for this reason, after Song Sikong fell ill, even though the courtyard judge didn't get better after a long treatment, he never invited Miss Duanmu Bajie. Before the valve master let madam mention to Miss Duanmu eight once, but Miss Duanmu eight seems to be blocked by the clan ...... madam's meaning is that the eunuch and the young madam go to explore the details this day, and in the next couple of days, madam will pick up Miss Duanmu eight to go over the house for a catch up."
Wei Changying is not even able to go to his two aunts, so naturally he is not in a good position to go to Duanmu Xinmiao. Mrs. Su took the initiative to build bridges and lead the way.
Wei Chang Ying was grateful for such a considerate mother-in-law.
After explaining the matters in the yard to Huang, the couple boarded the car together and went out.
When I arrived at the Sikong residence, I saw that the door was cold and quiet.
The doorway of the housekeeper see is the cousin of the lady with son-in-law together to come, although surprised since the eldest son is not refused to visit? But still do not dare to be slow, one side invited them in, one side with people dashed into the report.
The two were guided slowly by the Song family's servants, and had been walking for several entries before they saw the haggardly Song Zaitian with a green-clothed boy welcoming them out, greeting them with a muffled voice "Cousin Wei, Yao Ye, why have you come?"
Wei Changying and Shen Zangfeng greeted him and said, "First cousin, don't blame us for taking the liberty of coming to the door, it's really because I just came back from Xiliang, and was shocked to hear that uncle was sick in the beginning of the spring, and if I didn't see him, it would be hard for me to feel at ease. It is afraid that uncle see my emotional ups and downs in the disease body is not favorable, I do not go in to visit, always have to come to see big cousin two or three years do not see, big cousin even emaciated into this!"
"My father's lingering illness worries me. I'm worried. My grandmother has gone away again, alas!" Song Zaitian at this moment is not the year to go to Fengzhou to pick up his sister Song Zaisui that will be the lofty and valve read style, haggard with thick fatigue, self-deprecating smile, also do not have the heart to say more words, only to reach out to the guests, and said, "Let's go in to say it."
Seeing that he walks with a light pace, it is obvious that in today's situation, standing for a long time is also a negative burden.
This situation made Wei Changying and Shen Zangfeng very worried Song Yuwang fell ill, the Song family can now count on this Song Da Duke, after all, Song Zaitian, Song's second son, that is the valve parade is famous for the thick people, people are good, but not to be able to support the family business. But look at Song Zaitian now this appearance, obviously body bones or not good to go, this is called cousin with do cousin son-in-law how can not worry?
So after entering the house and sitting down, Shen Zangfeng also did not hide the purpose of the couple came together, and opened the door to ask about Song Yuwang and Song Zaitian two people's physical condition "The last time I came to visit with my father, although my father is lying on the couch, the spirit is still good, the first cousin is not like today's fatigue, how to only half a month apart, the first cousin of this haggard, uncle also?"
He was married to Wei Chang Ying and was the grandson of the Song family, so if his uncle was sick, it was impossible for him not to come and visit even if his wife was not in the imperial capital. From the beginning of spring until now, Shen Zangfeng, either with Shen Xuan or on his own, has come to visit several times. And although the previous visits were not always able to see Song Yuwang, Song Zaitian, who came out to entertain, never looked as bad as he did this time.
Song Zaitian laughed bitterly, shook his head and said "Father, he was busy with state affairs in the early years, neglected to maintain health, cousin first married that year suddenly fainted, asked the season doctor to diagnosis and treatment before there is a rise in this matter you are aware of. Just these two years of frequent civil unrest, the state affairs increased, the father was busy under actually forget the year Ji doctor's advice, this time, but the old disease attack."
Wei Changying changed color slightly Song Yuwang had been sick for a long time, and at his age, it was obvious that he was very sick. The fact that he had not recovered from this serious illness was a big problem, and now that it had returned, I was afraid that it would be even more difficult to treat him. Last time the hospital was helpless, let alone this time?
Also heard Song Zaitian continued, "March partial grandmother died again, received the news, father's heart grief is difficult to hold, meditate for half a day after vomiting blood, since then the condition but more serious. These two days frequently dream of grandmother, so ...... I said please cousin temporarily do not meet the good."
Wei Chang Ying was busy making amends, but Song Zaitian wasn't in the mood to listen at the moment he obviously meant to ask the two to go back when he had finished talking.
Although they could see this meaning, Wei Changying and Shen Zangfeng were not willing to leave.
Wei Changying immediately said, "I really didn't know that my uncle was so sick when I was in Xiliang, or else I would have persuaded Dr. Ji to come with me when I returned to the capital this time. But now the quarter doctor's senior foot Miss Duanmu eight in the imperial capital, although she is now just out of the cabinet, and her husband is the newlywed time, idle things are inconvenient to disturb. But now uncle is so sick, can't help but be a difficult person to do a round of ...... first cousin here if it is inconvenient, mother has decided to invite her to the Tai Fu House tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, when I will try to persuade her to promise this matter not to hide from the first cousin, in the Western Liang, I still have a few moments of acquaintance with her. some friendship with her when we were in Xiliang."
Which knows Song Zaitian heard these words, the corner of the mouth bitter smile thicker, said "Cousin has the heart. Just I also do not hide cousin, although the second brother insisted on resting that the end of the wood, to the end of the wood family a good big disgrace, the two families since then there is a gap. But the master is magnanimous, heard that the father's illness is heavy, not the doctor can cure, in fact, is the initiative to send someone to the door to say that will bring Miss Duanmu eight visit, incidentally, for the father's diagnosis and treatment."
"But, how father did not agree!" Song Zaitian said hopelessly, "Even at the end of the first month, the great master personally visited the residence and told father face to face that with him by his side, he thought that Miss Duanmu's diagnosis and treatment for father wouldn't be able to stir up any gossip. Besides, Huo Er Gongzi is also a man of understanding, how father is also counted as Miss Duanmu's elder but father just won't allow it!"
Seeing Wei Changying and Shen Zangfeng both showing shock and incomprehension, Song Zaitian sighed, "This is useless for you to ask me, because I also do not know. I'm not sure if I know," Song said. "Before the bad news from Jiangnan came, our family kneeled in front of the couch, and my father didn't pay any attention to it. ...... In fact, I wanted to write to my cousin and ask her to persuade Dr. Ji to come to the Imperial Capital, but my father said that he doesn't like people related to the Duanmu family, so he didn't want to see them. ...... "
When Wei Changying and Shen Zangfeng heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other!
