Free Life in the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 166 See also Zhou Heng

Hearing this news, Song Keren couldn't help but be shocked. She immediately stood up and attacked her with a sense of powerlessness. Fortunately, the maid's eyesight and hands were quick and suddenly held her.

Song Keren held the bed and took a deep breath.

"Who did you just say? Are you a friend of the young master? Song Keren asked.

The maid nodded and almost dragged Song Keren forward.

"It's said to be a friend of the young master, and it's also your friend." The maid said.

Song Keren frowned and said to himself, is it Zhou Heng?

In the flower hall, Lao Si served tea in person. Zhou Heng quickly stood up and half bowed his body very modestly. Lao Si quickly smiled and humbly put the teacup in front of Zhou Heng.

Lao Si's "line of sky" eyes turned slightly and smiled, revealing his earthy teeth.

"Master Zhou, please, please. Hey... Our young master often mentioned Master Zhou before his death. Now that he has left, we think we should invite Master Zhou to see him anyway. At this time, I will never see it again." Lao Si said here with a sad face.

Zhou Heng nodded and put down the tea bowl. He received the news of Fang Shaowen's death last night. He planned to come and have a look last night, but the temple was closed at that time, so it was inconvenient to come out. So, I had to come here now to send Fang Shaowen for the last journey.

Anyway, at least it's reasonable to meet him for the last time. Of course, Zhou Heng actually wants to know the whereabouts of Song Keren. He has heard about Song Keren's elopement with Fang Shaowen.

"Oh..." This is really a world of impermanence. I think it's been since I and Brother Fang... just... Alas..." Zhou Heng shook his head.

Lao Si is so clever that he has already noticed a clue from Zhou Heng's hesitant words. The sad pain on Lao Si's face became deeper, but he kept shaking his head.

"Only pity Miss Song. She has hardly eaten anything these days." Lao Si said deliberately.

Hearing this, Zhou Heng couldn't help raising his head.

"How did she..."

As soon as Lao Si saw it, it was a play. He quickly shook his head and pretended to say deeply, "Our master refused to recognize her. Our master did not agree to this marriage at the beginning. Now that the young master is gone, it is even more impossible to agree. Besides, she is still young. Will she be widowed all her life? This is also unfair to her. Although our young master left without leaving any children, the master wanted to hold the young master's funeral regardless of the rules of his ancestors, which was also because of his love for the young master. Hey, Miss Song also said at that time that she would leave after the funeral. However, I looked at her coldly these two days and only felt that she..." Here, Lao Si deliberately glanced at Zhou Heng.

Sure enough, Zhou Heng asked nervously, "What's wrong with her?"

Lao Si shook his head and lowered his eyes to look at the tip of his shoe.

"Her mood these two days is getting worse day by day, I'm afraid..." Lao Si looked at Zhou Heng again.

Zhou Heng was anxious and asked in a panic, "What are you afraid of?"

Lao Si was secretly happy and said that you were trapped.

"I'm afraid she can't stand it. Master Zhou is his own, and I have nothing to hide. I heard from the shopkeeper who came back from Hanzhong that Miss Song committed suicide twice in Hanzhong. The first time she hanged herself. Fortunately, Xiao Liuzi went back in time, otherwise, she would follow the young master. The second time was to jump into the well. After being rescued, he didn't say anything all day long. Every day, there was only crying at the young master's body. In the past two days, what the girl brought in came out intact. Our whole family is very worried about whether Miss Song can go to Lin'an under such circumstances. Lao Si said.

Zhou Heng's eyes suddenly widened when he heard the word "Lin'an". He seemed to have seen her leave, wearing a white coat and her long black hair fluttering in the wind.

"How could she... go to Lin'an?" Zhou Heng muttered.

Lao Si, standing aside, always maintained a humble face and said calmly, "Because Lin'an is the place where the young master has feelings with her, the master intends to send her to Lin'an in order to please the young master. Oh, she is still so young that she has to stay widowed all her life..."

Lao Si said and shook his head regretful.

Zhou Heng was suddenly nervous. He looked at Lao Si standing next to him and almost screamed.

"She must go?" Zhou Heng exclaimed.

Lao Si smiled and was secretly happy, but his face was full of solemnness.

"Oh, Miss Song doesn't have her mother's family. She followed the young master and has been taken care of by the young master. Now that the young master is gone, our family is not that abominable. How can we drive Miss Song out? Can't you let her live on the street? But after all, she has no husband and wife with the young master, and I'm afraid she will be pointed out when she stays in Fang's old house. Therefore, going to Lin'an is the most decent way. Lao Si said.

Zhou Heng looked at Lao Si, and he understood what Lao Si said.

"Her mother's family..."

Before Zhou Heng finished speaking, he saw the maid helping Song Keren come out. Zhou Heng's tears almost fell at the sight of Song Keren's bloodless face and weak body.

How long has it been? A good man turned out to be like this. Zhou Heng blamed himself very much. He only hated that he could not keep her at that time, which made her suffer so much.

When Song Keren saw Zhou Heng, he nodded calmly. It seemed that she had already foreseed his arrival.

"Is the third brother here? Have you read the article yet? Song Keren asked bluntly.

Lao Si knew that his task had been completed, so he quietly retreated. After the maid helped Song Keren to the chair, she was busy going out to bring tea. Only Zhou Heng and Song Keren were left in the flower hall.

Song Keyen leaned against the chair and really wanted to be the owner of this family. Zhou Heng was a little embarrassed, but his heart was full of impatience.

Song Keren took a look at Zhou Heng and turned his head, as if he didn't know him.

Zhou Heng scolded in his heart, "This woman's heart changed so quickly." But then, he showed pity.

"But, don't go to Lin'an, it's not your home after all. Come back with me. Grandma is still waiting for you at home. Zhou Heng said.

Song Keren looked at Zhou Heng feebly and said unhappily, "Who said I was going to Lin'an?"

Zhou Heng felt a pain in his heart and almost wanted to grab Song Keren's hand. However, he was avoided by Song Keren, so he sat upright like a serious student.

"Listen to me, the housekeeper just told me that they were going to take you to Lin'an. But man, listen to me, no matter how much you love him, he will eventually go. Ten thousand steps back, you really went to Lin'an. How can he not be so far away from him? Zhou Heng said.

Song Keren was unable to defend, but she was very shocked by this statement. First, it came from Zhou Heng. Second, it turned out that the Zhou family wanted to deal with her like this.

Send her to Lin'an to let her survive and die, right?

Song Keren smiled. Sure enough, Master Fang was more thoughtful than she thought. First, she can find someone to look at her, so that she won't lose her knot, and second, she gave the Fang family enough face. This move is really killing two birds with one stone.

But at this moment, it doesn't matter to her. She just wants to be with Fang Shaowen every minute, which is enough.

"But, go home with me. The Zhou family will always be your home!" Zhou Heng said.

Song Keyen smiled, stretched out his hand to prop up his body, and turned his head to look at Zhou Heng. This glance is meaningful, and he actually said all the things in his heart.

"Take good care of grandma and other family members. I... can't go back." Then, Song Keren turned his head and two lines of tears fell down again. She has found a home for herself. In that destination, there is Fang Shaowen's last love.

After saying this, Song Keren staggered away. The maid who came in with tea hurriedly put the tea bowl aside and came forward to support Song Keren.

Zhou Heng also stood up and looked at Song Keren's shadow.

The incense in the incense burner emitted a unique fragrance, and Lao Si reached out to take the bowl handed over by Master Fang. Lao Si couldn't help frowning and gritting his teeth with a bowl.

"Sir, I haven't eaten much in the past few days. How can I just eat these porridge? I'll ask them to cook something else for the master. Let's make baked buns. The master used to be his favorite. Lao Si said.

Master Fang wiped the corners of his mouth with the veil around him and shook his head gently.

"I'm old. It's really useless. I even fell on my clothes after drinking some porridge. Hey... It seems that I'm old." Master Fang said softly.

Lao Si quickly put the bowl aside and handed over the tea for Master Fang to rinse his mouth.

"Master, what are you talking about? You are in your prime. Why did you say such a discouraged word? Lao Si said.

Master Fang tilted his head and shook his head, full of confidants. His son died, depriving him of all hope for the rest of his life.

"How's that going?" Master Fang asked after drinking tea.

Lao Si lowered his head, gently pulled the quilt for Mr. Fang, walked aside, and stood aside with a blank face.

"To the master's words, I have told Mr. Zhou according to the plan. Mr. Zhou is very concerned about Miss Song's going to Lin'an. I think he should take some action." Lao Si said.

Master Fang nodded and gently closed his eyes half leaning against the pillow.

"Handle it well and don't let outsiders say anything about our family because of her. I think the Zhou family will definitely refuse to let her go to Lin'an. This is one of them. Second, if the Zhou family really doesn't care, send her to live in the house of Shaowen in Jingzhao. She is not our daughter-in-law, we have to find a way. I'm old, and I will eventually close my eyes. I don't want her to come back to fight for property on that day, so Shaowen won't feel at ease. Master Fang said.

After saying that, Master Fang opened his eyes. Lao Si nodded repeatedly, and his expression was very loyal. Master Fang closed his eyes again. What method can be used to save the face of the Fang family and prevent her from competing for property? This is really a difficult problem.
