Chapter 57 General Song is looking for his relatives

"General Song, you are still very weak. I will go get you a bowl of porridge. You can go wherever you want after you have recovered." Qin Zhi said and went to get the porridge.

The wounded woke up one after another, and Mr. Sun explained to them one by one that they were saved by Zhan Xiao. There was also a pair of brothers named Lu who woke up. They knew Mr. Sun and asked him to inform their families, and Mr. Sun agreed.

All seventeen people woke up. Qin Zhi asked them to drink the porridge and then diagnosed them again. Basically, they all showed signs of improvement.

Qin Zhi slightly adjusted the medicine according to their respective conditions and gave each of them an infusion. Everyone cooperated with Qin Zhi's active treatment because they clearly felt that their bodies were much lighter than yesterday.

General Song had lost contact with his family for more than twelve years. He learned from King Huainan that his family all thought his wife had died in battle and that she had committed suicide for him.

The King of Huainan forced him to hand over the deployment map of the Zhan family army, but he would rather die than surrender. Over the years, he has been tortured countless times, but he has never uttered a single word. The King of Huainan did not dare to kill him, because killing him would mean that there would be no hope at all.

What General Song misses most now is his daughter. When he was captured, his daughter was still a baby crying for food. He doesn't know if his mother is still alive. If she is, she is an old lady in her sixties. After so many years of not being able to show filial piety to her, is she okay?

The more Song Xun thought about it, the more worried he became. He asked Qin Zhi to go to Xing'er Hutong and ask her if there was a man named Song Che. This was his biological brother. If his biological brother was still here, it meant that his daughter and mother were also here. Qin Zhi was going to the town to deliver something to Song Rou. She had stayed here for a few days and left the jade pendant here. So she readily agreed to General Song's request.

Qin Zhi came to the town and went to Song Rou's house. The Song family had already informed the concierge that if Qin Zhi came, they would bring her in directly.

A maid led Qin Zhi to the side hall for guests, where Old Lady Song and Madam Song were also there. Madam Song quickly and enthusiastically asked the maid to serve tea, and the old lady also liked her, so she asked the maid to bring some cakes.

Qin Zhi greeted Old Lady Song and Madam Song, returned the dropped jade pendant to Song Rou, and was about to leave.

Song Rou stopped him and said, "Why are you leaving right after you got here?"

The old lady also tried to persuade him to stay: "Yes, it won't be too late to have lunch here before leaving."

Qin Zhi couldn't resist their enthusiasm and said, "Old lady, I really have something to do today. I promised someone to find someone in town. That person is waiting for my reply. I will definitely come to ask for a meal some other day."

"Since you are looking for someone, I will help you find him. There is strength in numbers. Who are you looking for?" Song Rou asked.

"He told me to go to Xing'er Hutong. By the way, do you know where Xing'er Hutong is?" Qin Zhi asked.

Before Song Rou could answer, the old lady laughed, "This is Xing'er Hutong. I have lived here for forty or fifty years. If you want to say familiar with it, no one is more familiar with it than me. Girl, who are you looking for?"

"He asked me to find someone named Song Che." Qin Zhi replied.

"Song Che?" The three people in the room all looked pale, "What does he want to do with Song Che?"

"Actually, I don't know either." Qin Zhi replied.

Old Lady Song ordered the maid to call Song Che over. Qin Zhi was dumbfounded. It turned out that Song Yu's father was Song Che.

When Mrs. Song saw Song Che coming over, she grabbed his ear and scolded him, "Tell me, are you looking for a vixen outside again?"

Old Madam Song also slammed the cane in her hand to the ground, and roared: "Rebellious son, our Song family does not tolerate those who have three wives and four concubines. If you dare to have affairs with other women, I will beat you to death."

Song Che was confused. When did I ever look for a vixen?

Song Che's ears were pinched so hard that they hurt. He begged for mercy, "Auntie, how dare I look for a vixen? Who spread the rumor that you heard?"

Qin Zhi guessed that Madam Song must have misunderstood her meaning, and waved her hand and said, "Madam Song, it's not a woman looking for him, it's General Song looking for him."

With a clang, Old Mrs. Song's walking stick fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

"Girl, who do you say is looking for him?" Old Mrs. Song looked excited and incredulous.

"Madam, can you please dismiss the people around you?"

Rong Mama, who was beside the old lady, took the maids to leave. When they got to the yard, Rong Mama warned the maids not to talk nonsense when they went out. The maids naturally agreed.

"Madam, someone found seventeen people imprisoned in a water dungeon at the Baiyun Villa of the King of Huainan."

At this point, everyone's heart was in their throat, just waiting for him to continue.

"They have managed to rescue these seventeen people. One of them was seriously injured, but has been rescued. He said that he is not suitable to appear in public yet, but he wants to know whether his family is safe. He asked me to find Song Che." When Qin Zhi said this, he couldn't help but feel a sore nose.

"Oh my God, Xun'er must be alive. Take me to see him, girl." Old Mrs. Song seemed to have confirmed that the person Qin Zhi was talking about was her son who had died twelve years ago. She was overjoyed when she thought that he was still alive. But the girl said that he was seriously injured and was imprisoned in a water dungeon. The old mother's heart was in pain.

"Mother, we can't go. Since the King of Huainan has captured our eldest brother, he must have some ulterior motive. Now that our eldest brother has escaped, he will surely look for him all over the world. If we behave abnormally at this time, our eldest brother will be exposed. Mother, I will secretly write a letter and let Miss Qin take it to our eldest brother. Tell him to relax and when the time is right, our family will finally be reunited." Song Che comforted the old lady.

Old Mrs. Song has lived in this wealthy family for so many years and knows everything.

"Yes, we have to protect your eldest brother. Rou'er, the fact that your father is still alive must be kept a secret."

"Yes, Rou'er knows." Song Rou never thought that her father was still alive. Since she was a child, she knew that her father was a hero. Although she never had a memory of her father's appearance, it did not prevent her from respecting her father in her heart. Now that she was told that her father was still alive, Song Rou was extremely happy.

"Madam, no need to write, I will tell him." Qin Zhi said.

"Yes, yes, the girl is right. If the letter falls into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, it will bring him trouble." The old lady nodded.

"Madam, General Song is most concerned about you and Song Rou right now. He will feel relieved to see that you are all well. I bought a camera from a foreign merchant before. I will show General Song the pictures taken with it. He will be very happy." Qin Zhi said.

When Song Che heard Qin Zhi mention the camera, his eyes lit up and he said, "Yes, a camera. I went to Haizhou to travel before and saw a camera at a merchant on the beach. The pictures taken with it are more realistic than the portraits painted by Danqing."

Qin Zhi asked Old Lady Song, Song Rou, and Song Che's family of three to stand together and took a family photo for them.

The camera Qin Zhi bought was a Polaroid camera, and she showed the photos she took to Old Mrs. Song.

"Yes, exactly the same." The old lady smiled with tears in her eyes.

"Madam, you should be happy. General Song has served the country with all his heart. We all respect him very much. When he comes back, I will take a real family portrait for you."
