Bondage

"you……"

As soon as Lin Jiayue opened her mouth, Song Wan turned her head, and the two looked at each other with complicated expressions.

Song Wan looked at Lin Jiayue wearing a plain cotton dress with only a white jade hairpin on her head, feeling a little uncomfortable.

She has changed a lot.

It's not the appearance, but it's like a different person.

After a while, Lin Jiayue smiled softly: "Miss Song."

For some reason, when Song Wan heard this sentence of Miss Song, her heart felt sour.

"I'll go to put on makeup for Miss Bai first, if you have time, you can wait for me here."

Song Wan smiled lightly and nodded, pointing to the end of the veranda, indicating that he would wait there.

Lin Jiayue came out of the room and ran to where Song Wan was.

In fact, she and Song Wan had nothing to talk about, but after seeing each other today, they suddenly had some thoughts about reminiscing about the old days.

"How are you doing now?"

Song Wan nodded, said something about being healthy and didn't speak again.

She really didn't know what to say to Lin Jiayue.

The two were silent for a long time before Song Wan smiled lightly and said, "How is your health?"

"The body is recovering well."

Lin Jiayue has calmed down a lot, and the high-spirited look in her eyebrows and eyes in the past seems to have been eaten away by the Chengyang Hou Mansion, and she is nowhere to be seen.

Song Wan thought for a while, then said softly, "I didn't expect you to come today."

Lin Jiayue said: "I shouldn't have come. The old lady in the mansion and the second master have passed away one after another. It's also against the rules for me to add makeup."

"but……"

She wanted to come and see, she wanted to see what Bai Ruizhu who was married to Lan Yunhe was like today, and also wanted to see if Mr. Lan was worth marrying.

Today she saw it, but felt even more regretful in her heart.

"Second Master passed away?"

Song Wan was shocked: "When did it happen?"

"You don't know?"

Lin Jiayue said: "It's been a while, he was seriously injured on the Lantern Festival and never survived."

Song Wan opened his mouth slightly, but the words were blocked in his throat, and he couldn't make a sound.

The child who was covered in injuries and cried, saying that no one in the world loves me and loves me, died of serious injuries in order to save her brother...

Why has no one talked to her?

Song Wan frowned, feeling pain in his heart.

Speaking of Jiang Yan again, all she could think of was the boy who was covered in mud and blood, his face was covered with pinches, and he called his sister-in-law, teach me.

"I really don't know."

There was some surprise and pity in Song Wan's tone: "Since I left the Hou's Mansion, no one has ever told me about the Hou's Mansion."

"It's your family who loves you so much that they can't bear to bring up those unbearable pasts."

After Lin Jiayue finished speaking, she smiled again: "You are quite right."

"what?"

Still immersed in the news of Jiang Yan's death, Song Wan looked up in a daze, only to see a faint red in the other's eyes: "You are right, Lan Yunhe is a good husband."

"If he wasn't a good person, Mrs. Bai and Miss Bai wouldn't be as happy and happy as they are today."

"Madam Bai has no intention of reluctance to let her daughter get married at all. Presumably, she is very satisfied with this son-in-law."

The death of Jiang Jing and Aunt Zhou seemed to be a thorn in Lin Jiayue's heart, which could not be touched or seen.

After hearing these few words, Song Wan understood what she was thinking.

Lin Jiayue didn't want to let her go and couldn't let her go.

Song Wan raised her head, looked at the faint blue and black under the other party's eyes that couldn't be concealed with gouache, and sighed slightly.

The inner demon has been born, and she doesn't know what to do.

Standing at the corner of the porch, the two of them watched the guests shuttle in and out of the courtyard. For a moment, they seemed to be cut off from the festive atmosphere of the courtyard, and the red lanterns on the porch were not as bright and lively as before.

"Jiang Xingjian accepted Qingwei into the room..."

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Lin Jiayue frowned and said, "You probably don't want to know these things."

Song Wan shook her head with a smile: "Qing Wei is the Dian Chan of the palace. It is not difficult for her to manage the Hou Mansion, but it is inconvenient for her to act without knowing her identity, and it is not unusual to admit her into the house."

"Ah."

Lin Jiayue didn't know why, probably Song Wan had seen someone who was different from her present, which made her quite unspeakably kind.Or perhaps it was Song Wan who did have some character of a gentleman that she admired from the bottom of her heart.

After thinking for a while, Lin Jiayue said again: "Second Master passed away, Aunt Liu was kicked out of the house, Jiang Xing is now adopted in my room."

After saying that, Lin Jiayue saw that Song Wan frowned, and said with a light smile, "I know it's against the rules, but Madam doesn't care. I can't bear to see that child being kicked around, so I kept it by my side."

"You don't know, Jiang Xing is very well-behaved."

Song Wan said: "It should be like the second master."

"Can I ask you something?"

Lin Jiayue blinked away the mist in her eyes: "When Jiang Xing grows up in the future, can you help her choose a marriage?"

"Ru Lan's family will do just fine. They don't want wealth and glory, they don't want to be a big family. They just want that man to treat Jiang Xing better and love her more."

"It doesn't matter even if the family is low. I have some money-making business in my hand, so I can save some dowry for her."

Her tone was a little choked up: "You have a better vision than me, so you won't be picky."

"nature."

Suppressing his heartache, Song Wan smiled and agreed: "In the past, I was favored by the second master in the Hou's mansion. Even for the sake of the second master, I will definitely choose a suitable one for Jiang Xing. You don't have to worry too much."

"Thank you."

"How polite."

After saying this, the two of them had no more words.

Lin Jiayue turned around and left, her weak back looked extremely sparse and desolate.

She walked slowly and dignifiedly, but that step seemed to be stepping on the tip of Song Wan's heart.

At this moment, Song Wan suddenly thought of Lin Jiayue who had just returned to the Hou's mansion, shouted loudly that she wanted to be with Jiang Xingjian for the rest of her life, Lin Jiayue, who had lively eyebrows and eyes.

"Miss."

Heng Zhi stepped forward and said, "Young master of the Lan family has come to pick up the bride, it's time for us to go back."

Song Wan nodded, and got into the Song Manor's carriage.

The carriage drove out of Bai's house, Song Wan lifted the curtain, and just in time saw Jiang Xingjian who was helping Lin Jiayue into the carriage on the street.She lowered the curtain and never moved again.

Jiang Xingjian couldn't help but look back as the Song Mansion carriage passed by.

"Brother Jane."

Lin Jiayue smiled sweetly at Jiang Xingjian, Jiang Xingjian nodded after recovering and got into the carriage.

In the carriage, Lin Jiayue was nestled in his arms, seemingly very affectionate.

Jiang Xingjian didn't know what he was thinking, Lin Jiayue's expression was numb, but her tone was sweet and greasy, as if she was acting like a baby.

"At the end of this month, the seventh grocery store will be opened in Baoding Mansion. Yue'er never thought that this store would be so profitable."

"Although the fifth prince has lost many supporters, Yue'er believes that money can turn ghosts around. As long as you have enough money, there will always be a day when you can compete with the prince again."

"Ah."

Jiang Xingjian agreed lightly, not even knowing if he heard what Lin Jiayue was saying.

Lin Jiayue was not annoyed, she put her arms around his waist with a smile and said quietly: "Brother Xing Jian, what do you want to eat today? How about Yue'er cooking for you?"

"Brother Xingjian, in this world, you are the only one who can make Yue'er willingly wash her hands and make soup..."
