Chapter 203 The mother and son can't stop the heart!
In Yunzhou City, He Family Courtyard——
The eldest daughter of the He family, who returned home from the Duke Protector's Mansion in the capital to visit her relatives, only exchanged a few pleasantries with other people in the house, and then used the excuse of feeling unwell to talk to her parents in a personal way and asked, "I heard my father say before
Is it possible to adopt a child in the clan?"
"Ahem." The master of the He family coughed. He was over a hundred years old, but he only had three legitimate daughters and two concubines. He didn't have a son to inherit the family business.
"Oh, it's either too big or not suitable for your eyes. Let's take a look again." Mr. He could only sigh and said, "If you don't tell me this in advance, how about you in the Duke's Mansion?"
"Of course it's good. Otherwise, how could I, a concubine, return to my parents' home? My husband is considerate and sent a small team of soldiers from the Shence Camp to escort me. The journey was very safe." Miss He had a sweet look on her face when she mentioned this, which shows that she is indeed
Be favored.
Mr. He was relieved, and Miss He continued, "It's a coincidence that when we first got off the pier, because of some discomfort, my daughter rested on the Lingba beside the pier for a while, and the accompanying mother-in-law took time to go to the riverside.
Relieve yourself, guess what?"
"?" Mr. He and his wife both looked puzzled. What's there to guess about the mother-in-law relieving herself...
"Mother Zhang, bring me in." Miss He, who didn't show off any more, called out.
Nanny Zhang came in with a baby in her arms and carried the child to Mrs. He.
Mrs. He was stunned and didn't react, "This..."
Mr. He turned a corner and said, "Picked it up by the river!?"
Miss He smiled and nodded, "Yes! It must be fate. If dad doesn't have a suitable candidate, I think this child is good."
"Ha~" Xiao Chongli, who was tired after working for a long time, was already rubbing his eyes drowsily. He was so cute. In the eyes of Mrs. He who had given birth to three daughters, she still loved him very much.
.
Mr. He also said: "It doesn't look very big. It doesn't matter if it's not mature enough. It looks good, but why is it by the river?"
"Mama Zhang said that she saw an old woman throwing it away. Although the swaddling clothes were a little dirty, you could tell that they were made of good material. Maybe she was involved in the dirty things of a wealthy family." Miss He thought.
Mr. He was stunned for a moment, "Will this cause trouble?"
"No, if we really find him, it might be a good match." Miss He didn't think the problem was big.
But just as she finished speaking, servants came hurriedly outside the Little Flower Hall to report, "Master, it's not good! There are officers and soldiers surrounding our compound!"
"So fast?" Miss He was stunned for a moment, "I think the clothing material this child is wearing should be the only one in the capital. This..."
She stood up immediately and asked in confusion: "Where did these officers and soldiers come from? Are you sure they are not government officials?"
There is still a difference between the two! The steward who came to report also knew it, so he said with certainty, "They are officers and soldiers! They should be Yunzhou officers and soldiers!"
Miss He was startled for a moment, then suddenly thought of something and asked, "Dad, Yunzhou has been captured before, right? Is the regent leading the troops now?"
"It was captured. Your mother, your grandmother, and your sister and I went out to hide for a few days. Later, it was indeed the regent who came and took Yunzhou back. Within a few days, the impact was not bad. What happened?"
Mr. He asked confusedly.
"Then does this child belong to the regent? This, it's not easy to give it back." Miss He thought a lot.
But Mr. He didn't understand, "All the officers and soldiers are here! Why don't you give it to me? Besides, the regent is a good man and a good fighter. If it really belongs to him, he must give it back!"
But Miss He had already looked at Aunt Zhang, who had followed her back to her parents' home from the Duke's Mansion, so she naturally understood what she meant, "Old slave, please hide the child now!"
"Okay! Mom, please go back to the backyard first. I will explain to you later. Just pretend that you have never seen this child. This is related to whether I can fully establish myself in the Duke's Mansion! If anyone asks, you must help me."
I’ll kill this.”
"This..." Mrs. He still didn't quite understand.
Mr. He was stunned, "You are not living well in the Duke's Mansion?"
When Grandma Zhang, who was holding the child, heard this, she couldn't help but said, "The eldest lady was given red flowers twice by the Third Grandma and had two abortions! Just because the Third Grandma had not yet given birth to the Third Master's eldest son, the Third Grandma
My natal family is not easy to deal with, so this matter has been suppressed!
My aunt in the family intends to marry into the Prince Regent's Palace. If I can help my aunt deal with the Prince Regent's eldest son now, and when my aunt who marries into the Prince's Palace has a firm footing in the future, can I help her a little bit?"
"This..." When Mrs. He and Mr. He looked at each other, she shed tears first!
Mr. He was also very distressed, "You, if I had known earlier, I shouldn't have let you come to Beijing to be a concubine."
"Stop talking about this, Dad! You must help me this time." Miss He, whose face turned slightly pale, also said, "We are not guilty. If Aunt Zhang hadn't picked up this child, he would have been killed by Jiang Bing.
If the water submerges you, consider it as repayment for my life-saving grace."
Mr. He's eyes were red and he nodded, "Okay!"
The father and daughter quickly adjusted their emotions and walked outside the compound, trying to stop people outside the compound.
But just when they walked to the courtyard gate, Ye Chenfeng and Mei Wen'er had already arrived.
As soon as Miss He saw the demeanor of the visitor, she knew that he was right and had already led her father to kneel down.
"No gift." Ye Chenfeng, who was the first to speak, asked directly, "Did your mother-in-law pick up a child on the bank of Yunjiang River?"
"This..." Miss He looked confused, "I haven't heard of it. You must be mistaken."
When Mei Wen'er heard this, her face changed slightly. Ye Chenfeng held his hand tightly and looked at Guan Feng.
Guan Feng immediately understood, "There is no mistake! You are the concubine in the courtyard of the third son of the Duke Protector's Mansion. You returned to your natal family in Yunzhou from the capital. You stopped in Lingba about three or four quarters of an hour ago, and there was a woman accompanying you.
, I just happened to pick up the young prince from the Regent’s palace!
I hope you will cooperate and hand over the young prince, otherwise even if you are a female member of the Protector's Palace, we will search the He Family Courtyard!"
After saying this, Guan Feng waved his hand, leaving no room for Miss He to speak! Teams of officers and soldiers had been ordered to enter the hospital and began a forcible search.
"You..." Miss He's face changed drastically and she tried to stop her!
However, Xiao Ying next to Mei Wen'er has restrained her so as not to affect the progress of the search.
However, the officers and soldiers who quickly searched inside failed to find Xiao Chongli. This made Ye Chenfeng's expression change instantly after receiving the report!
Miss He, who was being held by Xiaoying, started to cry, "You guys are going too far! I must tell the Third Master about this, and beg the Third Master to ask the Duke to make the decision! You..."
"Impossible!" Mei Wen'er, who interrupted her cry, had an intuition, which made her subconsciously shout, "Chong Li——"
This call made Mei Wen'er use up all her medical energy! It was so loud that it almost spread throughout most of the He family courtyard.
So much so that Xiao Chongli, who was already asleep, woke up instantly, and then...
Before Nanny Zhang, who was holding him and hiding, could react, the little guy cried out with a "wow"! It was also very loud.
