Chapter 394?

Qiu Wuhen shook his head and said, "It's not that you won't leave Beijing, but if you want to leave Beijing, you will take you and Duoduo and let us go. I will not leave you and the children here again. I know you will miss me, and I will miss you too."

"Yeah." Su Jinsong nodded and forced a smile, "If you don't talk about these, today's full moon is a good day. Once you say these, I will still be sad."

Qiu Wuhen wanted to speak but stopped. At this time, someone outside the door said that the princess and Mrs. Liu had arrived, and said, "I'll go out to accompany the prince and Mr. Liu. There are many guests at home today. I may come here later. You can go to bed earlier and don't be tired."

Su Jinsong nodded obediently. When Qiu Wuhen went out, he heard Wang Linglong's cheerful laughter in a short while. Only then did Su Jinsong cheer up and welcomed him out.

For a period of time, Qiu Mansion seemed to be like Qiu Wuhen and after he left and came back, but it seemed a little different.

The difference is that in the yard, children often hear laughter or crying, or there are more and more customers coming and going to the house. Li Niang has to bring back some capable girls from the village to help, and Su Jinxiang and Jin Xiyeon also occasionally come back to help.

Before I knew it, it was Mid-Autumn Festival again. Su Jinsong's body had completely recovered and his complexion was much better than before.

On this day, Jin Xiyeon returned to the mansion and still went to salute Mrs. Su and her mother to greet her, and then came to see Su Jinsong and Duoduo.

When he entered the yard of Tinghe Yuxie, he saw the wet nurse playing in the yard with his child in his arms. The prince gave Duoduo two macaws, which looked very beautiful. The wet nurse taught them Duoduo's name every day. Over time, the two parrots also learned a lot of words. As long as they threw some nuts to them, they would be happy to learn to speak, making Duoduo giggle.

"Miss Jin is here." The wet nurse smiled and greeted him when she saw Kim Hee Yeon.

Kim Hee Yeon stepped forward and looked at Duoduo. The pink and tender little balls looked very fond of them.

"Are you here, madam?" Kim Hee-yeon asked softly while teasing the child.

"Here, I made a gown for the young master in the room with Sister Li Niang."

Jin Xiyeon called out to her wife, and her voice became louder. When she heard Su Jinsong say that she would go in quickly in the room, she walked over.

When he entered the door, he saw two beautiful women sitting on the left and right in front of the low window, one holding scissors and the other holding a needle and threading. When he saw Kim Hee-yeon entering the door, both of them looked up at her.

"I thought you would come tomorrow."

Su Jinsong put down the needle and thread in his hand, waved to Jin Hee-yeon with a smile, and asked her to sit beside her.

"The pears on the farm this year are very well-behaved. I thought I would be delivered tomorrow, but I was afraid that it would be too late for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet tomorrow night, so I came here. The weather is cool now, so I can ride a horse alone quickly."

Jin Xiyeon walked to Su Jinsong and sat down. She looked at her half-embroidered pattern. Then she picked it up and continued to embroider.

Su Jinsong glanced at Li Niang, and Li Niang understood and said, "Yesterday, the lord brought some good melons, called them Hami melons, which are very sweet. I'll cut some for you and you can taste them."

After saying that, he got up and left.

There were only Su Jinsong and Jin Heeyeon left in the room. Su Jinsong didn't speak, just drank water while watching Kim Heeyeon's familiar embroidery work.

"Madam, I have something I want to tell you."

Finally, Kim Hee Yeon said casually, looking down.

"Okay, what's the matter, you say it."

"Lei Mu said he would come to propose marriage to his cousin."

Jin Hee-yeon's voice was very small, but Su Jinsong still nodded.

"Madam, will you agree?"

Seeing that Su Jinsong just nodded and didn't say anything, Jin Xiyeon finally couldn't help but raise her head.

Su Jinsong was looking at him with a smile, his eyes slowly feeling gentle and smiled.

Kim Hee-yeon's face turned red and she immediately lowered her head.

"Lei Qianhu had already arrived last night."

Kim Hee-yeon raised her head in surprise and said, "Last night? When, wasn't he at the farm?"

After saying that, I felt like I had said something wrong, and I suddenly felt so embarrassed that I blushed and didn't know why.

"It must have been after I went to the village to find you, and then I came to find your cousin."

"What do you say about cousin?" Jin Xiyan looked at Su Jinsong uneasy.

"You like each other, and although his parents are not in the capital, he means that he has asked his parents that since they come to ask for marriage, their parents agree. Naturally, your cousin and I will not object, and aren't your mother also very happy?"

Jin Xiyeon finally felt relieved. She had been worried that her origin was not necessarily the Lei family would agree, but now she suddenly realized that perhaps the Lei family's consent had a lot to do with her being Qiu Wuhen's cousin, and she also lived in their house and managed the things in the village for them.

Thinking of this, Jin Hee-yeon stood up and knelt down to Su Jinsong.

Su Jinsong was shocked and was about to get up to help him, but he heard Jin Xiyan choking and said, "Madam, I know that if my father had not sent me and my mother to you and my cousin, you would not have the meticulous care and love for our orphans and widows. I would not have been today, and the Lei family would not have agreed to my marriage with Lei Mu."

After hearing this, Su Jinsong couldn't help feeling distressed. He still stood up and walked to Jin Xiyan and said, "Good child, it must be your mother and you who helped us too much. We actually did nothing. You are the one who is doing your own good, right? Lei Mu is pretty good, but... have you thought about it? After marrying, the Lei family is a great family. Although they are not in the capital, they have been in the capital for decades. Now the Lei family still has tribe members in the capital. You have to support a family at a young age and may have a concubine in the future. In short, everything has to be thought about."

Kim Hee-yeon nodded with tears in her eyes.

"Madam, Lei Mu promised me that he would not take concubines, just like the adults treat you. No matter whether our children are male or female in the future, he will not take concubines. He is not the only one in their family. He told me not to mind. He and I will buy a house in the capital and buy a few maids and mothers, and just live a simple life."

Su Jinsong nodded with relief and said yes, helping Kim Hee-yeon up.

The two of them sat in the same place and talked for a while, and suddenly they heard a burst of rapid footsteps, and they saw Li Niang coming in a hurry.

Kim Hee-yeon said to Li Niang from the open window: "Why did you come back empty-handed? Didn't you say that you would give me some cantaloupe?"

However, Li Niang did not answer and went straight into the room and walked to the two of them. Seeing that Li Niang was rarely so serious and nervous, Su Jinsong asked, "What's wrong?"

"Sir, I have been summoned to the palace." Li Niang whispered.

Su Jinsong disagreed and said, "I'm afraid the emperor is going to return to the court recently. And it's almost Mid-Autumn Festival, so there must be a lot of things in the palace. The empress dowager likes to ask him for some peace pulse if he has nothing to do."

Jin Xiyan said, "It's probably not the case. I heard from Lei Mu that the front line is in a tight situation recently. How long has the emperor been away? He won't come back so soon. Moreover, the emperor is not here, who will let the emperor enter the palace?"

Li Niang looked out the window and saw that there was no one around, saying, "Miss Xiyan is talking about it."

At this moment, Zhang Qi was coming again, looking very nervous. Before he could enter the door, he said in front of the window: "The princess sent someone to speak, saying that Tumu Fort was destroyed, the Minister of War Kuang Ye, and the Minister of Revenue Wang Zuo have all died in battle. The lord was also summoned into the palace. The princess told us to close the door and not go out."

When the three women heard this, their faces changed drastically. Su Jinsong stood up and said, "What should I do if the third sister and Miss Gan in the village are doing?"

Kim Hee-yeon comforted her, "Madam, don't worry, Lei Mu and I made arrangements two days ago. Don't worry, as long as the palace is not in chaos, the capital will not be in chaos."

Su Jinsong looked deeply at the girl in front of him who was about to be seventeen years old, and knew that she had always had an idea.

"Now the city gate is closed and we can't go out. I have asked someone to close the mansion. Madam, don't worry first, I will send more people now."

Su Jinsong asked again: "Who followed the adults to the palace?"

Recently, Niu Guangyuan has been busy preparing for the exam, and Qiu Wuhen rarely lets him follow him.

Sure enough, Zhang Qi said: "Qiu Ran went with him."

"Is he OK?"

Su Jinsong was worried, Zhang Qi nodded and said, "Don't worry, that kid is even smarter than a big bull."

While speaking, he heard Xuehua shouting loudly outside the door: "Madam, the old lady is here."

Su Jinsong quickly stood up to greet him.

In June of the 14th year of Zhengtong, Emperor Yingzong of Ming was defeated at Tumu Fort and was captured. The prince Zhu Jianshen was only two years old and had no king in the country. For a moment, the people were in panic. During the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, the entire capital was shrouded with dark clouds that had not dissipated for a long time.

Su Jinsong hadn't seen her husband for several days. She was very worried, but she knew that he would ask Qiu Ran to send messages to his family every day. Lei Mu took Su Jinxiang and Gan from the farm to the mansion on the third day of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Fortunately, Qiu's family is different from other families. They already have vegetable fields and breeding farms. If they don't go out to buy vegetables, they won't worry about not having rice to put into the pot.

On the eighth day of the 12th month of the 14th year of Zhengtong, Empress Dowager Zhang issued an edict, and King Hui succeeded to the throne, changed the reign of Jingtai, and became the Emperor Daizong of Ming. He also respected Emperor Yingzong of Ming as the Emperor.

In March of the first year of Jingtai, Qiu Wuhen took people to the Oirati to negotiate with the orders of Emperor Daizong of Ming Dynasty and brought the Supreme Emperor back.

On this day, Qiu Wuhen came out of the palace and met Su Jinsong with his children coming into the palace on the way.

"Why are you here?" Qiu Wuhen asked.

Since Wang Linglong became the queen, she gave Su Jinsong a jade tall so that Su Jinsong could enter the palace at any time without having to be ordered. However, Qiu Wuhen knew that his wife was not such a frivolous and ignorant person, so he was a little curious.

Duoduo is about to be one year old now. He was very happy to see his father, and he kept his saliva and struggled in the wet nurse's arms, allowing his father to hug him.

"It's not that I'm coming myself, it's the queen who said she's thinking too much, saying she's coming when she wanted to come, but now she's not free."

Qiu Wuhen glared at his wife, and Su Jinsong quickly looked around and whispered: "Would you like to go with me?"
