Chapter two hundred and twentieth less than(1/2)

British Duke Song Yichun suddenly visited Jing'an Temple Hutong, which made Chen Qushui, who had been focusing on Huaishu Hutong, feel a little unusual in the house.

This is the matter of Jing'an Temple Hutong, and Dou Zhao should know better than him.

He came to see Dou Zhao in a hurry.

Dou Zhao, with his aunt and cousin, went to Gulou Street to buy things.

By the time he arrived at Gulou Street, Dou Zhao and the others had already returned to Jing'an Temple Hutong.

Chen Qushui rushed to Jing'an Temple Hutong again.

When he entered the door, he met Gao Sheng.

Gao Sheng greeted him with a smile on his face: "Mr. Chen is such a coincidence. Miss Fourth has just returned and is talking to the master! Why, is there something urgent in the shop?"

"It's not an urgent matter." Chen Qushui perfunctorily said, "There is a lot of money to buy and I want to ask the fourth lady to give me an idea."

Gao Sheng said enthusiastically: "Do you want me to help?"

Compared to the life of the Dou family, Dou Zhao's small ink shop is not worth mentioning at all.

"You will only know after asking the lady." Chen Qushui made excuses him.

Gao Sheng did not doubt it, and nodded with a smile, greeted him in the account room and sat down, and told the servant: "After the master and the fourth lady have finished talking, you can help Mr. Chen immediately report it." His unusual attentiveness made Chen Qushui feel excited. After finally waiting for Dou Zhao and Dou Shiying finished talking, it was time for dinner.

Dou Zhao met Chen Qushui in the flower hall.

Chen Qushui told Dou Zhao about Song Yichun's visit to Dou Shiying, and said, "Miss, why did the British Duke come to see Master Qi?"

Their relationship with Song Mo has always been shameful. If the British Duke found out, no one could have predicted what would happen!

Dou Zhao was stunned: "What did you say? The British Duke came to visit my father?"

Chen Qushui nodded: "I have checked it. It seems that the pottery from the British Duke's Mansion is heavy through the bridge built by Xu Zhiji, a colleague of Master Qi in the Hanlin Academy. But the specific reason is urgent and has not been found."

But fine beads of sweat emerged from Dou Zhao's forehead.

The Duke of England and his father are two people who have no intersection.

The world is so big that I am nameless and silent. Under normal circumstances, the Duke of England could never notice him.

If there is a connection between them, it is Song Mo.

If the British Duke knew that he was the one who asked Song Mo at the beginning, he would have a way to deal with him, and would never have come to visit Jing'an Temple Hutong with a polite look.

In other words, the British Duke Ten did not know what the relationship between him and Song Mo was.

Then why did he visit his father?

Song Mo's eyes as quiet as the night sky appeared in Dou Zhao's mind.

That day, he knew that Dou Mingdae had married Wei Tingyu and said to her impulsively, "Dou Zhao, I'll marry you."

She regarded this as the excitement of the boy.

Not cared about it.

And it was decided that he could not convince the British Duke to agree to him marry him.

So, she told him confidently, "If you can get married, you will naturally be destined to be together."

Could it be that the British Duke came to help Song Mo propose marriage?

Dou Zhao thought about what she had suggested to Princess Song Moshang before.

After the sisters were easily married, the father's greatest hope was to find a family that was no worse than Wei Tingyu to marry him, but how did Song Mo get Song Yichun to agree to marry him?

She thought of what he had suggested to Princess Song Moshang before.

Even if he intentionally revealed the news to Song Yichun, why did he let himself appear within Song Yichun's sight without hesitation? How did he make Song Yichun feel that he was a suitable daughter-in-law?

Song Mo once again showed his strength.

Dou Zhao took out a handkerchief and wiped his forehead.

She ordered Su Xin: "Hurry up, find a way to find out what it was for the Duke of England to come to see my father?"

Su Xin left in response.

Chen Qushui was also burnt like an ant on a hot pan.

Dou Zhao has always been careful, so he focused his main energy on Huaishu Hutong. Who knew that Dou Zhao knew nothing this time!

He was not Dou Zhao, and Dou Zhao could not tell Chen Qushui all the conversation between him and Song Mo. Chen Qushui did not think about Dou Zhao's marriage at this time, but murmured there: "I know that pottery is to ask Xu Zhiji for help. Later, Xu Zhiji led him to see Master Qi, and I just took it as an ordinary introduction. Although I sent someone to pay attention, I didn't check it carefully." He regretted, "If I had known this, I should have told the lady earlier."

Dou Zhao felt more anxious than him, but he still comforted Chen Qushui: "The matter has happened, and it is useless to be impatient. The most urgent thing is to find out the purpose of the British Duke!"

"I don't know," Chen Qushui smiled bitterly, "It's just that the matter is important, and I can't calm down." Because it was getting late, he didn't want to stay for a long time, so he had to leave Jing'an Temple Hutong with suspicion.

Until the hour of Hai, Su Xin broke back with shame.

"Miss," she said uneasy, "I found nothing... the pottery was left to the master whom Lord Xu met alone. When the British Duke talked to the master, all the people served in the room were sent away. It was the tea that General Gao personally helped pour... General Gao's tone was very tight. Even Gao Sheng's family was confused and could not know when he asked."

Dou Zhao frowned and said, "It is impossible that there is nothing strange at all. Think about it carefully, is there any unreasonable things? For example, what did General Manager Gao do after the British Duke left? After the Taozi met his father again, who did his father ask for questions? Or where did he go?"

"I remembered it!" Her reminder made Su Xin look at her eyes, "After I came back to see Master Qi, Master Qi had gone out with General Gao. It was the car that General Gao drove himself. As for where he went, no one knew. In addition, a few days ago, did Master Qi ask General Gao to put away all the things in the house with the big red and happy words or the red and green hangings? When I went to find General Gao just now, I found that General Gao was instructing the servant to count the lanterns, curtains, incense, candles and other things..."

Dou Zhao's face changed drastically as he heard that he knew that he was guessing.

Before Su Xin could finish her words, she said anxiously: "Go to find Mr. Chen quickly. First, let Mr. Chen help check where my father and Gao Sheng were at that time? Second, let him find a way to bring a letter to Song Yantang, saying that I have something important to see him!"

After all, the two companies have not officially been hired, so I hope it is time to do all this!

Su Lan responded solemnly, and found an excuse to go to the Bimo Shop on the street under Gulou.

Dou Zhao didn't fall asleep all night.

The next day, she had no intention of going out.

My aunt thought she was tired, so she just told her to have a good rest. However, Zhao Zhangru laughed at her as if she was better than her physical strength and accompanied her to gossip in the room.

Dou Zhao responded in a mess, and it was not until the afternoon when Chen Qushui came over.

His face was very bad.

"A few days ago, General Manager Gao rushed to the summer palace to take Master Qi to the summer palace. It is said that he went to meet a fellow student who was in the pedestrian department." Chen Qushui said solemnly, "Where is the prince, I have asked Mr. Yan to help him pass a letter. Mr. Yan said that the emperor will move to the forbidden palace in the next two days. The prince will definitely be very busy, but if the prince receives the letter, he will definitely find a way to meet the lady and let the lady be calm."

How could it be so coincidental?

Dou Zhao felt that there seemed to be more sweat on his forehead.

Did my father go to see Song Mo?

She thought in horror.

If my father really went to see Song Mo... would he be shooting himself in the foot?

Dou Zhao regretted it very much.

At the beginning, we should have told Song Mo clearly and clearly that he did not want to get married, and that he should not be vague or ambiguous.

Chen Qushui frowned, always feeling that Yan Chaoqing's smile, "Don't be impatient" was quite meaningful, as if something was about to happen, but Yan Chaoqing hid it from him.

He couldn't help but ponder, "Two days ago, the old master of the Ji family posted a post to Master Qi, asking Master Qi to go to Yuqiao Hutong to have a drink. However, Master Qi went to Wanming Temple in the southern suburbs outside the city, so that everyone could look for him for a while. Look, Master Qi avoided the Ji family, will it have anything to do with the British Duke?"

She didn't know what was going on in her life either?

First there was Wu Shan, then He Yu, Ji Yong, and now Song Mo is here to get into trouble!

But in my previous life, I wanted to find someone who loves me and couldn’t!

Dou Zhao sighed, thinking about how to tell Chen Qushui his guess when a rumor of gongs and drums suddenly came from outside.

My aunt and cousin came together.

Both of them looked unhappy, especially Zhao Zhangru, who ignored Chen Qushui's presence and took Dou Zhao's hand with a smile and said, "Shou Gu's jade Ruyi is really happy."

There was a bit of teasing in his tone.

Dou Zhao was stunned.

My aunt laughed and scolded her cousin, and said kindly: "Don't listen to your cousin's nonsense. She is jealous of you."

Dou Zhao suddenly felt a sense of inadequacy in his heart.

She couldn't help but look at Chen Qushui.

Chen Qushui also happened to look at her.

The two of them were gaze together, and they looked deep in each other's eyes.

My aunt smiled and walked up to Dou Zhao's hand: "Shou Gu, congratulations, the Duke of England came to propose marriage to his eldest son, Song Yantang, the prince of the Duke of England's mansion. Your father went to see him personally. The boy has outstanding character and appearance and has agreed. The Duke of England's mansion has come to hire him!"

"What did you say?" Dou Zhao took a deep breath.

Chen Qushui opened his mouth and stared at Dou Zhao blankly, but he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Before the fifth wife's sedan chair could reach Jing'an Temple, she heard a crackling sound of firecrackers in front of her, followed by drums and music, shaking the sky.

She couldn't help but smile and lifted the curtains of the sedan chair and asked the woman who was accompanying the sedan chair: "Who is doing the wedding?"

The old lady hurriedly smiled and said, "I'll ask now?"
