Fate of the Stupid Son Chapter 88

Song Lin and Song Wan Yue came out of the academy and Song Si had already gotten into the carriage.

Song Shen stood at the doorway anxiously looking towards the two men, and when he saw them coming out, he hurried up to them, “Eldest Uncle, Yue’er, what did the Dean say?”

“The evidence is overwhelming, there is nothing he can do.”

“How can that be? Big brother must have been framed.”

“Let’s go.”

“We can’t go, if we do, we’ll really be sitting on the fact that big brother stole the jade pendant.”

Song Wangyue stopped, “Then what does second brother want to do?”

“Wait here for the man named Zhang to come out and ask him why he framed second brother?”

“And then what?”

Song Shen didn’t even think about what to do next, he just wanted to question Zhang Huai, “He, if he doesn’t admit it, I, I won’t spare him.”

“If he admits it, there would be no false accusation of big brother today; if he doesn’t admit it, the fact that you did it at the entrance of the academy is our family being angry and threatening to force it.”

“But we can’t let him frame big brother like that!”

“Let’s get on the carriage first.”

Even though Song Shen was reluctant, he could only follow and get into the carriage.

This was a matter for the Song family, and Song Wangyue had not asked Gu Yi to follow.

The carriage drove straight to the market, where Liu Cui Lan’s eyes were red as she cut the cold skin, and Song Shu was so distracted that he almost cut his hand several times.

Song San Xiao also looked towards this side from time to time.

When he saw the carriage coming, he hurriedly put some seasoning into the bowl of cold skin he was holding and handed it to the customer.

Song Shen clenched his fist and slammed it hard on the carriage.

Song San Xiao understood and turned towards the side of the bazaar, “I’ll go find someone and go to the academy and ask for clarification.”

Song Lin lifted the curtain of the carriage, “Stop!”

Song Sanxiao stomped his feet in anxiety, “Big brother!”

Song Lin let go of the curtain and the carriage continued towards the stall.

Unable to do so, Song Sanxiao stomped his foot several more times in anxiety and followed behind.

As soon as Song Sanxiao went that way, Liu Cui Lan and Song Shu saw it and stopped their work to look over.

As they watched the carriage come up to them and watched Song Si get off the carriage, Liu Cui Lan’s tears could no longer be held back and flowed out in torrents.

She knew how much hard work her son had put into his studies over the years, and she, as a mother, knew it.

If her son had been unlucky in his examinations, she would not have been so sad, but with the examinations still a month away, her son had been thrown out of the academy and disqualified.

“You’re hungry, have a cold skin first.”

Song Shu held back her tears and greeted Song Si.

After saying that, he urged Liu Cui Lan, “Cut one for Si’er.”

Liu Cui Lan bowed her head and cut the cold skin, tears falling onto the board.

“Don’t be like that, my son doesn’t know how sad he is yet, don’t add to his burden.”

Song Shu took advantage of the effort to get the bowl to whisper advice.

Liu Cui Lan lifted her sleeve to wipe her tears.

Seeing his parents like this, Song Si felt badly in his heart, “Father and Mother, don’t worry, my son will find out the truth.”

Liu Cui Lan choked back a sob and did not dare to look up, fearing that if she did, her tears would fall down again uncontrollably.

Song Wan Yue took the bowl, added the seasoning herself, and gave it to Song Si.

Song Si took the bowl in silence and did not sit at the table, but took a wooden stool and placed it on the floor, sitting on it and eating in silence.

Liu Cui Lan couldn’t help but cry again.

A few people who were still eating the cold skin, sensing that the atmosphere was not right, finished the cold skin in a couple of seconds and left quickly.

The stall was quiet.

Song Si stopped eating, “When I think about it, I think the key to my wardrobe has been copied. There are only two people who could do so, one is my fellow housemate and the other is someone from the Zhang family. That night when I was copying my book, I was really sleepy and took a nap in the middle.”

Song Wan Yue similarly put the wooden stool down on the floor and sat beside him, “Second brother tell me specifically about your fellow house and the circumstances of that night.”

“Lu Xing’s family is similar to ours, because we are in the same house, the two of us are closer compared to the others, his family lives in ……”

Song Wan Yue listened carefully to him finish and said, “Big brother take the carriage first after eating and go home first ……”

“I’m going to stay and investigate clearly.”

“Even if you want to investigate clearly you have to wait for tomorrow, today you go home first and give your grandparents a word so they don’t worry about you.”

At the mention of Grandma Song and Master Song, Song Si did not insist.

After eating the cold skin, Song Si rode home in the carriage, Song Wan Yue was uneasy and quietly gave Song Lin a wink, Song Lin understood and followed him to the carriage, “There is nothing to do today, I happen to accompany you home.”

Song Si knew what he meant, “Don’t worry, eldest uncle, I won’t do anything stupid.”

“Eldest Uncle really doesn’t have anything to do, it’s just the right time to tell you about making herbal tea bigger.”

When the carriage had gone far away, Song Wangyue spoke to a few people and went back to the restaurant.

“Little girl, what’s going on?”

Gu Yi was anxious, if it was anywhere else, he could have sent his fellows to inquire, but it was the academy and the fellows could not get in at all.

Song Wangyue told him what had happened in a concise manner.

After hearing this, Gu Yi immediately called Xiao Si to come in, “Go home and call my father to come over and ask him to help solve this matter.”

“No need.”

“Little girl ……”

Song Wangyue interrupted him, “Thank you for your kindness, I will first investigate on my own, if not, then I will ask Master Gu for help.”

“Then, okay.”

Gu Yi compromised and ordered Xiao Si to go and bring a bowl of herbal tea over for Song Wan Yue to drink, “What do you want to do?”

“Go to Lu Xing’s house first.”

Gu Yi’s eyes slithered around a few times, “I want to go with you.”

……

At noon, it was the hottest time, Song Wan Yue and Gu Yi restaurant carriage after getting off, stood in the sun for a while, until full of sweat, before walking towards Lu Xingjia.

The Lu family was located in the north street of the county, and Song Si was exaggerating when he said that the Lu family was in a similar situation to the Song family. In fact, the Lu family lived in a dilapidated mansion, but as it faced the street, the Lu family made room for a small restaurant, selling cold noodles in the summer and wontons and dumplings in the winter.

Gu Yi and Song Wan Yue lifted the curtain to enter, but there was not even a single person inside to entertain them.

“Is there anyone there?”

Song Wangyue raised her voice and shouted.

Immediately, a woman’s voice came from the other house, “Coming, coming.”

At the end of the sentence, a woman came out, just 16 or 17 years old, with a slightly bulging belly, she should be a few months pregnant.

When the woman saw Song Wan Yue and Gu Yi, she froze for a moment. This North Street was where the poor gathered, and most of the people who came to their eatery for food were also poor, and it was rare to see a young master dressed as rich as Gu Yi.

“You, you guys ……”

“We came to look for relatives, we happen to be a bit hungry, come in and have a bite to eat, what’s good?”

“Only, only cold noodles.”

The woman’s hands and feet were so nervous that she didn’t know where to put them, and her answer was cautious.
