Bondage

Song Wan casually took out "Qi Min Yao Shu" and "Wai Tai Secret Yao" and turned to the page of making lip balm and said: "Cooked vermilion, comfrey, red and blue flowers are the main ingredients of rouge, go find a businessman from other places, let him He charged high prices for these things."

"How much do you charge?"

Song Wan put the book back into the book table: "Shouting with great fanfare, the quality is fine and the quality is low."

"Miss is so smart."

"But, won't Miss Jiang feel dissatisfied by doing this? If my lord finds out..."

"If I don't do these things, will Concubine Jiang be satisfied with me?"

Song Wan smiled faintly, and continued to dial the abacus.

Hearing the words, Hengzhi also knew that she had asked too much. Her young lady had been a widow for six years, and she never saw Concubine Jiang when she entered the palace for the first time. endure?

"The servant girl went to look for Mother Zhao and asked her to handle this matter together."

While walking out, Heng Zhi ran into Aunt Zhou who was looking for Song Wan and the third lady of the Hou Mansion, and after she saluted, she asked Xiang Cao to pick them up into the house.

She was a little surprised to see Aunt Zhou and Jiang Jing Song Wan for the first time, because they were too quiet in the Hou Mansion, she almost forgot about Aunt Zhou.

"Grandma, I came to look for you today because I want to ask for your help with something."

Aunt Zhou smiled, revealing two dimples on her face. She has a beautiful face and speaks slowly and gently.

Jiang Jing also looked ashamed, the little girl was in her teens when she was outstanding, her pair of peach blossom eyes were charming and affectionate, but because she was still young, she looked pure and innocent, her fair skin was as charming as pearls and jade.When looking at people with a smile, a pair of shallow pear dimples are looming on the face, which makes people feel a little intimacy involuntarily.

Song Wan got up to give up his seat to the two, but Aunt Zhou sat down on the embroidered pier to the west, while Jiang Jing obediently stood behind her.

Seeing this behavior, Song Wan knows that both of them are well-behaved.

"Auntie can be regarded as Wan'er's half-elder, what is there to ask for? If you have something to say, just say it straight, why does the family need politeness?"

Aunt Zhou smiled: "It's Jing'er, she is fourteen years old."

Song Wan knew Aunt Zhou's intentions as soon as she heard it, and after letting Xiang Cao take Jiang Jing to play in the courtyard, she asked, "Auntie came here for the third sister's marriage?"

"Exactly."

Aunt Zhou nodded: "I'll tell you about Jing'er's marriage...it's really my heart."

The old Hou Ye passed away suddenly, and she had only Jiang Jing and her daughter under her body. Without a man to support her mother and daughter, it was very difficult for her mother and daughter to live in the mansion.

She has a weak temper, and was crushed to death by Aunt Liu when she was young, but now that the old Hou is not around, she is ruled by a few slaves who are in charge of the backyard.

If the old lady and his wife were not so kind, she really didn't know how to live her life.

Fortunately, Song Wan sent the Diao Nu's family out of the house a few days ago, and she and Jiang Xing had only been at ease for a few days.

Aunt Zhou thought about it and did not dare to mention Jiang Jing's marriage to Jiang's mother. Firstly, she was a little afraid of Jiang's mother, and secondly, she knew Jiang's mother's temper somewhat, and she would not wholeheartedly help Jing'er find her husband's family.

After thinking for a long time, she mustered up the courage to bring Jiang Jingqiu to Song Wan's place.

"Jing'er is getting older, and I'm afraid I won't be able to say anything good if I drag it on, so I want to ask grandma to help me palm my eyes."

As she spoke, Aunt Zhou took out a red velvet box from her bosom, and handed it to Song Wan in a very shy manner.She blushed and said, "I know that grandma has seen many good things, but this...is my heart."

Song Wan felt sore, and opened the red velvet box.

Inside was a pearl hairpin, a serious Dongzhu, not only shiny and beautiful in shape, but also slightly pink.It's a pity that this bead is only the size of a fingernail, so ordinary that even Heng Zhiheng Wu can't look down on it.

When Song Wan saw it, she took it out lovingly, and asked Aunt Zhou to help her put it on.

"For such a beautiful hairpin, I will also find a good husband for my third sister. I just don't know what Aunt Zhou wants to find?"

Aunt Zhou thought for a while and said: "The most important thing is to have a good character and disposition if you don't choose your family status. Jing'er has a temperament like me, but a little cowardly. She can't afford a family with her temperament. If she can, she can ask grandma to help her choose her." The youngest son in this mansion, it doesn't matter if the family is poorer if he is older."

Song Wan's heart softened, knowing that Aunt Zhou really loved Jiang Jing.

"Don't worry, Auntie, just leave the third sister's marriage to me."

Aunt Zhou thanked Song Wan for pulling Song Wan, and it took a long time before she reluctantly left Lan Courtyard.

Song Wan touched the pearl hairpin on her head and sighed slightly.

Aunt Zhou reminded her of her own mother, and she thought that if her mother was still alive, she would be so careful to help her take care of everything.

"Miss, what are you looking for? Let the servants come."

When Hengzhi came back, she saw Song Wan half squatting and turned over Chef Mahogany. She helped Song Wan to stand up, and seeing her holding several batches of materials, she asked, "Miss, do you want to make new clothes?"

"I found it for my third sister."

Thinking about what Aunt Zhou and Jiang Jing were wearing just now, Song Wan said again: "Go and get two sets of gold silk colored treasure head masks from my makeup box, and send them to the third sister's room together with this material. Her mother and daughter rarely go out on weekdays. The yard, I don’t know what’s missing or what’s missing, I think I’ll live in poverty.”

Hengzhi nodded, and ordered the second-class maid in the courtyard to send it away.

After Song Wan finished her work, she turned to the brochure of the Shangjing family. In fact, she really felt that there was someone who was very suitable for Jiang Jing.

"Hengzhi, do you know the Lan family in Cangzhou?"

"My servant knows that the Lan family was originally an official who was implicated in some incidents and was taken away by the previous emperor. But I heard that the previous generation of the Lan family has some business talents, and now the business is very large and very prosperous."

Song Wan nodded: "The Lan family used to be a very upright official, they didn't care about profit and loss like ordinary merchants, and the children in the clan have good character. I intend to tell Jing'er to the Lan family."

"If I remember correctly, there is a very high-ranking concubine boy in his family. He has not been married for a long time, and he still has some contacts with the young master. Miss, did you like this man?"

"Well, I remember my elder brother mentioned this person a few words, he has some talents. The Lan family is rich and powerful, and he has no burden on his body, Jing'er can be the aunt of the head of the family after marrying, and can directly enjoy the blessings."

"Miss is really planning for the third girl, and the third girl is blessed."

Song Wan smiled lightly: "Who can live up to Aunt Zhou's motherly love?"

"Help me study ink. I want to pass a post to the mistress of the Lan family to see if I can finalize the marriage between the uncle of the Lan family and Jing'er."

Just as he was posting the post with great interest, Jiang Xingjian walked in. Seeing this, Heng Zhi had no smile on his face, and left silently after saluting.

Song Wan looked at Jiang Xingjian, the good mood just now was gone, and even the writing seemed a bit sluggish.
