Chapter 696 Marriage
Chapter 696 Marriage
Song Ying didn't hesitate at all, "Go! We must go!"
The Lantern Festival can be celebrated every year, but Kaichuang missed this time. I don’t know how many years I will have to wait before I have another chance!
"I knew you would go. It's worth my trip." Tong Yunshu smiled and shook his head. "During the autopsy, outsiders are not allowed near the body. You pretend to be me and go under the pretext of writing down the records for my father. In the past, when my father was too busy, I often wrote down the records for him. Everyone in the government office knows about it. Just be careful, no one will find out."
Of course, the most important thing is that their identities as coroners make others avoid them, and few people take them seriously.
Song Ying nodded repeatedly, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "Okay, wait a moment, I'll go tell my husband."
Before she finished speaking, she turned and walked into the house, her steps as light as if she was walking on the spring breeze, without waiting for Tong Yunshu to respond.
"Husband," Tong Yunshu pursed her lips and chuckled. They had only been married for over a month, but it was already so easy for her to call him that.
Unfortunately, Song Ying was so overwhelmed with joy at being able to watch the craniotomy that he didn't notice her teasing expression at all.
Inside the house, Yuan Qing had been paying attention to the outside. When he saw Song Ying stop at the door, he immediately stood up and went out, "Miss Tong, what's going on?"
Song Ying leaned close to his ear and lowered her voice very low, "There's a corpse in Dongling County that needs to be opened. She asked me if I wanted to go, and I want to go!"
She said the last sentence with absolute certainty.
Yuan Qing was stunned for a moment. The corpse of a newlywed, the skull opened...
Which bride would go to watch such a scene when the candles are still hot?
But thinking that he had waited so long for this opportunity, he could only swallow his frustration and said, "I'll go with you."
"No, outsiders are not allowed to be present during the autopsy. I'm going to pretend to be Yunshu and go with Uncle Tong. It's not appropriate for you to go with me.
Besides, this matter cannot be known to too many people, you have to stay and cover for me."
How could Yuan Qing not have thought of these things? He was just worried about her.
Seeing her say that, he could only suppress his worries in his heart, "Okay, when are we leaving? Is the carriage ready? It's cold at night, so you should bring some clothes. Let me think about what else I need."
"Don't think about it. I have to leave now. You should think about how to fool someone who asks about me in the evening."
Song Ying said this and turned to leave.
Yuan Qing was so shocked that he grabbed her and asked, "So urgent?"
Song Ying nodded. "The body has been dead for several days. If we go too late, I'm afraid it will be too decomposed and hinder the autopsy."
Yuan Qing reluctantly let go, gave her some detailed instructions, thought for a moment, and gave her all the money he had on him, "Poverty at home and wealth on the road, take it all with you, just in case."
Song Ying nodded. There were many people at the Lantern Festival, and there was a mixed crowd. There were many petty thefts, so naturally one could not carry too much money with him.
She didn't know how many days she would be gone, and if time wasn't tight, she would definitely go back and bring some more.
Watching her back as she walked away, Yuan Qing felt very melancholy. His wife was so capable, but that was the bad thing: they had to part ways even after their wedding.
The others were very curious about Song Ying's departure. Yuan Shan asked, "Hey, why did sister-in-law leave? What are you going to do?"
"She's a doctor. What else can she do? She has to treat a disease." Yuan Qing made up an excuse.
As they were talking, they saw Luo Yanxing driving a carriage from the end of the street. Yuan Shan and Mei Yue's attention was immediately diverted. Considering Luo Yanxing's reputation, they resisted the urge to go over and ask him.
When the carriage approached, Yuan Qing saw Li through the half-rolled curtains and hurried to greet her, bowing and saying, "Grandma, you're here. Did you have a hard time on the journey?"
"It's not hard, it's not hard at all. How can it be hard to ride in a carriage?" Mrs. Li smiled kindly. "You guys are here early. I thought you wouldn't arrive until the afternoon. Where's Yingwa?"
Yuan Qing bowed slightly and explained, "Someone had an emergency and she went to see him."
Li frowned: "It's New Year's Day, it's unlucky."
"Oh, can you pick a good time to get sick?" Wang inside shook her head. "Alright, let's not talk about these unlucky things. Mr. Xiucai, have your grandmother and the others arrived? Aunt Li mentioned them several times along the way."
Yuan Qing replied gently, "They're not coming tonight."
He reached out and lifted the car curtain. "It's cold outside. Get out of the car quickly. The charcoal brazier in the backyard is already warm."
Song Yuan rubbed his hands and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, let's go inside and talk. This wind makes me feel cold to the bone."
When Mrs. Li heard her little grandson complaining about being cold, she no longer bothered to talk to Yuan Qing and let the two of them help her get off the carriage and walk into the house.
Yuan Shan Meiyue seized the opportunity and pulled Luo Yanxingzhu behind her. Yuan Shan asked anxiously, "How is it going? Did you find out? Which family did your parents arrange for you?"
Mei Yue glanced into the room and saw Chen Yunze standing next to Li, saying something with a smile on his face.
Looking at Luo Yanxing beside him, he looked at Chen Yunze with a look of surprise and a bit of shyness. What was there that he didn't understand?
She pursed her lips and smiled: "Is there any need to ask? It must be a good marriage that everyone wants. Otherwise, why would Sister Yanxing bring Uncle Luo and Aunt Wang here?"
Yuan Shan thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case.
Given Luo Yanxing's personality, if she is not satisfied with the marriage, she will definitely have a big fight with her parents. Not to mention bringing them here in a carriage, it is possible that she will even sever all ties with them.
She looked at Luo Yanxing, then at Chen Yunze, and also smiled mischievously.
Luo Yanxing came back to his senses and glared at the two of them, "You stupid girl, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Mei Yue and Yuan Shan were so amused that their eyes became more and more teasing. Even though Luo Yanxing was thick-skinned, his face gradually turned red under their gazes.
At this time, Li and his group had already gone to the backyard. Chen Yunze walked over and asked, "What are you three talking about?"
Seeing that the other main person had also arrived, Mei Yue and Yuan Shan became more and more excited.
Mei Yue was somewhat restrained due to her status, but Yuan Shan could no longer contain herself and said with a mischievous smile, "Sister Yanxing's parents have arranged a marriage for her. We were very worried and were trying to find out which family she came from. Unfortunately, Sister Yanxing is very tight-lipped, which is really frustrating."
"Marriage?" Chen Yunze was startled when he heard this. His eyes suddenly turned to Luo Yanxing, and his voice was filled with anxiety. "Are you engaged?"
Luo Yanxing was stunned, while Mei Yue and Yuan Shan looked at each other.
After a moment, Luo Yanxing asked softly, "You don't know?"
"Should I know?" Chen Yunze's eyes were blank, and then he seemed to think of something and was suddenly shocked.
He looked at Luo Yanxing, his lips trembling slightly, "My parents... were too anxious and didn't tell me."
Seeing this, Yuan Shan covered her mouth in feigned annoyance, "It's all our fault for being so talkative. We ruined the surprise your father and mother had for you."
Her eyes moved, looking back and forth between the two of them, with a sly smile on her lips.
Mei Yue was also very happy and pulled Yuan Shan inside: "Oh, it's too cold, let's go in first, you two can chat slowly."
