Lin Daiyu's Rebirth

Chapter 422: Duke Tong's Mansion Demands an Explanation

There was silence in Duke Tong's mansion.

"Hey, where on earth did Bijun go?"

Mr. Tong sat weakly on the pearwood chair, his face full of worry and anxiety, as if he had aged ten years overnight.

He frowned and stared into the distance, as if hoping to see Bijun's figure through the closed door.

In the past few days, the eldest wife disappeared inexplicably, which was like a bolt from the blue for the Tong family.

At first, Master Tong sent wave after wave of people to look for her, but Bijun seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth, with no news of her ever being heard from again.

Just then, Yanhong hurried over. Her face was a little pale and there were a few beads of sweat on her forehead.

She walked quickly to Master Tong and said anxiously:

"Master, the Madam's heart aches again, and Xuan'er is still in the young lady's room crying and looking for her mother!

master……"

Yanhong hadn't finished her words when she caught a glimpse of Master Tong's distraught look and was suddenly stunned.

She subconsciously swallowed back the words that were about to come out of her mouth, for fear of adding more trouble to Master Tong.

Mr. Tong had no choice but to quickly order someone to call a doctor.

He hurriedly followed Yanhong to Mrs. Tong's room.

In April, the sun is scorching hot during the day, making people feel hot and uncomfortable, but there is still a hint of coolness at night.

Mrs. Tong was lying quietly on the bed, covered with a brocade quilt.

She could probably guess a little bit in her heart.

Many days have passed since Bijun came back, but the mansion has never sent anyone to pick her up.

Even if we don't consider Bijun's situation, Hongxuan is the prince's own flesh and blood!

Now it is left here.

What's worse is that Bijun disappeared inexplicably these days, and Mrs. Tong suddenly understood why.

She was extremely anxious and her anger suddenly caused her old illness to relapse.

Master Tong walked quickly to the bedside and asked with concern, "Madam, how are you feeling?"

He held Mrs. Tong's hand tightly. After all, this woman gave birth to his children and accompanied him for most of his life. The Sochorolo family was also a famous and prestigious family!

However, he knew everything about Bijun and the prince as clearly as a mirror, so at this moment he didn't dare to look directly into Mrs. Tong's eyes.

Madam Tong covered her heart with her hands. The maid brought a backrest, and she half leaned on it, crying and asking Master Tong:

"Master, tell me the truth, what happened between my Jun'er and the prince?"

Mr. Tong still wanted to cover it up, but Mrs. Tong's eyes were like a knife piercing his heart!

Master Tong cleared his throat and said hoarsely:

"Madam, this whole thing is the fault of that unfaithful man!

But he is the prince favored by the emperor! Besides, every family has three wives and four concubines!"

Mrs. Tong suddenly realized that the rumors in the mansion were actually true!

That unfaithful man actually abandoned his Jun'er for a vixen!

Anger and despair filled Mrs. Tong's heart. She could no longer maintain the dignified image of the mistress of the house, nor did she care about Mrs. Tong's dignity and glory.

Like a madman, she screamed at the top of her lungs, pointing at the door:

"Even if he's the king of heaven, as long as he treats my Jun'er badly, I'll go and argue with him even if it costs me my life!"

Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Tong seemed to have exhausted all her strength at this moment.

Her eyes suddenly lost their luster, and her body collapsed limply on the bed as if her soul had been sucked out.

Upon seeing this, Mr. Tong turned pale with fright. He rushed forward and pinched his wife's philtrum tightly with his hands, hoping to help her regain some consciousness.

After a long while, Mrs. Tong slowly breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had just woken up from a nightmare.

Her tears flowed like a flood, she cried:

"Master, although Jun'er is not my biological child, I had just lost our daughter at that time!

If it weren't for Jun'er, how would I have gotten through those days? "

Just then, the doctor hurried over.

Mr. Tong comforted Mrs. Tong while asking the doctor to treat her quickly.

He told his wife to cure the disease first, and as for Jun'er's matter, he would definitely find a way to find her.

The doctor placed his hand on the lady's wrist with a serious expression, feeling the beating of her pulse.

However, the beating seemed chaotic and there was no pattern at all.

The doctor frowned slightly. He knew in his heart that Mrs. Tong was probably very angry and anxious, which made her already weak body unable to bear it anymore.

However, judging from the pulse, there is nothing serious wrong.

Time passed minute by minute, and after about a cup of tea, the doctor finally let go of his hand and breathed a sigh of relief.

He quickly wrote down a few prescriptions for calming the nerves on a piece of paper and gave them to the maids to boil.

Then, the doctor turned around, faced Master Tong, and said in a calm tone:

"Heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine!

Madam, there is nothing wrong with your health. You just need to relax and stay in a good mood."

After that, he lowered his head and told Madam Tong: "Madam, you still need to rest well!"

The doctor had just left, and Mr. Tong looked outside the door with a heavy heart.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally told Yanhong:

"Hurry up and tell the butler to go to that house immediately and tell him that Bijun is missing!"

Yanhong was frightened by Master Tong's appearance. She stammered and asked:

"Are we going now? Xuan'er...what about Xuan'er?"

Mr. Tong felt a pang of pain in his heart. He knew very well that the child missed his mother, but at this moment he had no other choice.

He sighed helplessly and said:

"Send a few people to coax Xuan'er!

The palace doesn't have a divorce letter after all. Prince Beijing should give us a clear answer as to whether he wants Jun'er or not!"

When Mrs. Tong, who was lying on the bed, heard the word "divorce", tears fell like beads from a broken string!

Master Tong was also feeling bad, but he still suppressed his grief and murmured to himself:

"Child, just follow us!"

Mrs. Tong, who was standing by, seemed to breathe a sigh of relief when she heard this. She sobbed and said, "Everyone says that nephews are hard to raise, but he is Jun'er's own flesh and blood after all!"

Mr. Tong quickly comforted Mrs. Tong and told her to relax.

He insisted that the butler go to Prince Beijing's Mansion to report the news immediately. He understood that this matter must have a result!

……

"Water... water..."

A weak cry was heard.

The mother-in-law looked up, thinking she had misheard.

These days, the maids have been taking care of Daiyu day and night without sleep.

At this moment, she told them to get some rest. As an old woman, she didn't sleep much, so she would just accompany Daiyu.

"Water... water..."

The mother-in-law then raised her head and was stunned by the scene before her!
