Chapter 787 - 376: Girls’ School_1
After returning home, Manjiang personally delivered gifts to the Eastern Palace, the Pan Mansion, the Liang Mansion, and the Wan family. Doggies such as Shan Dian went straight to the Eastern Palace, while Monkey Sister took Monkey Panpan and the little female monkey back to the Liang Mansion.
Brother Cheng and Brother Xin still remembered Monkey Sister and Monkey Panpan. As soon as they saw them enter, they screamed and threw themselves into Monkey Sister’s arms. Monkey Sister happily lifted one with each hand and grinned with delight.
The clever Monkey Panpan also remembered Yixiu. Before Yixiu could extend her hand and bend down to pick it up, it used all four limbs to climb into her arms, wrapping its front limbs around her neck and snuggling its little head into her bosom, making Yixiu giggle with laughter.
Afterward, Monkey Sister picked up the little monkey, who seemed at a loss standing there, and stuffed it into Yixiu’s arms.
Ten days before, Yixiu had already received a letter sent by Father Jiang, stating that they would return at the end of April. It also mentioned that on March 20th, Dashan and White Wolf had died on the same day. The family and the House of Animals were extremely saddened, and they were buried on the back mountain of Xijing Mountain, next to Benben. The letter said that it was a place with good feng shui, and surely they would reincarnate into good lives in the future.
Yixiu had anticipated this, but it still made her cry with sadness. Thinking that Zhu Sujin must be even more upset, she took her children with her and invited Mother and son Pan Yue to accompany them to the Eastern Palace. As expected, Zhu Sujin was grieving in the study, with the Crown Princess Consort and Huang Liangdi weeping by his side.
It turned out that the attending eunuch didn’t know why the Crown Prince was so suddenly heartbroken. He went to tell the Crown Princess Consort and Huang Liangdi, and when they came over and heard that Dashan had died, knowing the bond between the Crown Prince and Dashan, they also started crying with him.
Pan Yue and Yixiu spent half a day consoling Zhu Sujin until he felt somewhat better.
The letter also contained astonishing news that Monkey Sister had lured a little female monkey out from the mountains.
The reason for saying "lure" was because, when Monkey Sister returned home with the little monkey, she looked extremely anxious. She didn’t even enter Guiyuan’s gate but gestured for Manjiang to quickly take them away from there. Knowing that the Fierce Red Monkeys had sensitive noses, Manjiang guessed that Monkey Sister must have stolen someone’s baby monkey and was afraid of being tracked to the location. He quickly sent Monkey Sister to their residence in Xishan County Town. Far from Dashan, not even the acute noses of the Fierce Red Monkeys could find them there.
