Chapter 32
Song Jinyue stopped, looked at the woman, and smiled, "Mother Jia."

The woman in the dark brown short jacket and short gown was the grandmother in charge, Nanny Jia.

Nanny Jia stepped forward to take Song Jinyue's hand from Mrs. Liu, and personally helped her into the back room.

Mrs. Liu bowed her head and saluted before retreating.

"The old madam talked about it several times this morning, but she was looking forward to Miss Biao." When mentioning the old madam, Jia Nao smiled helplessly.

If it wasn't for her persuasion, the old lady would order someone to take a carriage to the Duke's mansion when she got up in the morning.

But the Duke's Mansion is different from the past. Since the second aunt passed away, the Duke married the Shen family who was raised outside, and no one from the Zhang family has ever set foot in the Duke's Mansion.

As soon as she entered the door, a wave of heat hit, and Song Jinyue's cheeks flushed a few blush.

Seeing this, Grandma Jia quickly explained with a smile: "A few days ago, the old lady caught wind and cold, and the lady specially ordered someone to burn the earth dragon early."

Song Jinyue's heart sank. Grandma is sick?
In her previous life, when she returned to Beijing, she never heard Grandma Jia mention her grandmother's illness.

"Miss Biao, don't worry, the old lady is well now, but... the second young master hurried to Dingzhou last night, and the old lady was a little worried that something happened in Dingzhou that was hidden from her."

When Grandma Jia mentioned the Second Young Master, she let out a long sigh.

Born in Zhang's family, Miss Gongzi is extremely stable and restrained in every temperament.

But these two young masters alone, in the capital city, they can be regarded as little overlords. Since childhood, they have often fought with the young masters and brothers in the capital city. Let them go.

Don't hurt the peace of the two families because of the petty fights between the children.

Although everyone said that, every time the Second Young Master got into trouble and came back, no matter how distressed the old lady was, she would order someone to beat the Second Young Master severely.

After coming and going again and again, it made the second young master become rough-skinned and thick-skinned. He didn't suffer less fights and punishments.

"Cousin Ping went to Dingzhou last night? When did you leave?" Song Jinyue's eyes flashed with astonishment.

She told cousin Ping yesterday that she asked him to go to Dingzhou, and told him to start again today.

Because she was worried that her cousin Ping hadn't left yet, she came to the renter's house early in the morning today.

Unexpectedly, Cousin Ping actually left last night.

Grandma Jia pondered for a moment, "Second Young Master left the city at the beginning of Shen Shichu yesterday. He only brought some changes of clothes and a dozen guards on horseback."

Song Jinyue listened, but also sighed in her heart, although Cousin Ping watched the mischief in the capital all day long, but once something happened, he could immediately put away his cynical temper.

His style of conduct is quite reminiscent of the decisive temperament of the ancestors of the Zhang family.

While speaking, several people had already entered the back room.

The maids in the house had been dismissed long ago, and the old woman in a dark blue skirt sitting on the black lacquered chair in the main room was her grandmother Zhang Shi.

Aunt Xie wore a light purple skirt with only a few silver threads on the cuffs, with a dignified demeanor.

"Grandmother..." Before she called out, Song Jinyue felt her throat astringent, the tip of her nose slightly sore, and her eyes moist and hot. She knelt on the ground and was about to salute.

The grandmother on the couch staggered forward with her aunt Xie's wrist on her wrist, the backs of her hands eroded by the years were covered with wrinkles, and her head was full of silver hair.

With tears of suppressed joy in his eyes, he supported Song Jinyue.

He muttered in his mouth: "You child, you are so cruel! Do you know that you are killing my old lady..."

"Grandmother, it's my granddaughter who is unfilial..." Tears welled up in her eyes, blurring Song Jinyue's vision. She held her grandmother's hand tightly, eyes full of shame.

Xie's eye sockets became hot, he hurriedly turned his head away, took out the veil and wiped it off.

Everyone in the house also shed a few tears.

Mrs. Zhang let go of her daughter-in-law's hand, and took her granddaughter into her arms, holding her tightly.

I'm afraid that someone will snatch the treasure in my arms.

Repeatedly muttering: "Heart..."

Song Jinyue sniffed fiercely in her grandmother's arms, and the grief that had been suppressed for a long time eased a little.

Grandma is getting old, she can no longer make grandma cry.

Softly persuaded: "Grandma, I'm back, and I will never leave you again."

"Good, good, good!"

Mrs. Zhang finally had a soft smile in her eyes, and then she let go of her granddaughter, looked carefully, left and right, and felt that she couldn't get enough of it.

"Mother, don't tire Yue'er, just let her sit down and talk." Mrs. Xie stepped forward to help Mrs. Zhang up, but her eyes kept falling on Song Jinyue.

I haven't seen each other for five years, my sister-in-law, the only flesh and blood, now looks more and more like the deceased sister-in-law.

Thinking of the sister-in-law who died early, Xie's heart inevitably felt a little sad.

My sister-in-law is a very kind person. In the past, she was innocent and lively in her natal family, loved by her father and brother. I thought that my sister-in-law's life would be smooth.

But who knows, she later married into Duke Song's mansion.

Even when the fragrance is gone, when the husband mentions his sister-in-law, he will always be silent for a while, with a cold light in his eyes, making people shy away.

"That's right! Yue'er came with her grandmother." Mrs. Zhang pulled Song Jinyue to sit on the couch of the chief seat, and held Song Jinyue's hand, but she didn't let go for a long time.

"Let the kitchen prepare some food." Mrs. Zhang looked at her daughter-in-law Xie again and ordered.

Mrs. Xie saluted, and then replied with a smile: "Then the daughter-in-law goes to the kitchen to prepare some food herself, and the mother will be more troubled."

Mrs. Zhang nodded in satisfaction, Mrs. Xie glanced at Song Jinyue again, smiled and signaled her not to be restrained, then left the old lady's room and led the mother-in-law and maidservants to work in the kitchen.

Nanny Jia brought a cup of hot tea to Song Jinyue.

"The old lady is still talking about asking Miss Biao to go back after the New Year."

Mrs. Zhang smiled and glared at Nanny Jia, and scolded, "You old bastard relies on me all the time, and you really have no rules!"

Nanny Jia was not annoyed, she stood behind Mrs. Zhang with a smile, squeezed her shoulders, and replied: "The old lady is kind, so don't be as knowledgeable as the old slave."

Madam Zhang smiled and patted Nanny Jia's hand.

Nanny Jia served her since she was a child, and accompanied her to get married, and dozens of years passed in a flash. She lost her husband and son in her early years, and she almost didn't recover in one breath.

It was Jia Nanny who served her day and night, always saying something to reassure her.

She survived all the way, and the family did not completely collapse.

Song Jinyue looked at her grandmother with a smile, but didn't speak to her.

Mrs. Zhang came back to her senses, then she looked at her granddaughter and asked, "Yue'er will stay with grandma for a few more days..."

"it is good."

Song Jinyue replied without thinking, and the smile in the grandmother's eyes deepened a few more times, she quickly turned her head to look at Nanny Jia and said, "Go and order someone to clean up a yard and let it out."

"I'll do it now, old slave!" Nanny Jia stopped pinching the old lady's shoulders, walked to the main hall, saluted, and then retreated.
