Daughter Reborn as the Head of the Family
Chapter 28 Punishment
Chapter 28 Punishment
The dim candlelight stretched the figure into a slender figure. Song Jinyue stood in the corridor, her fingers entwined, and the beautiful figure on the ground became a little more agile.
She used her soft fingers to look at the shape of the bird perched on the porch, and immediately a vivid bird spread its wings as if it was about to leap up from the dark shadow.
"Miss, take a rest early." Qiu Yun followed the lady's gaze to the black shadow on the ground and advised her.
"Okay." Song Jinyue let go of her hand, and the agile bird shadow on the corridor disappeared in an instant, as if it had never appeared before.
"Chun Chan and Yun Xing..." Qiu Yun followed the young lady into the house, and then asked about the two maids who were still kneeling on the porch at the entrance of the courtyard.
Song Jinyue raised her eyebrows slightly, without saying a word, and raised her hand to untie the cloak from her shoulders. Qiu Yun took the cloak, turned around and hung it on the black rosewood frame beside the bed.
Qiu Yun never tries to persuade the young lady to make up her mind.
No matter good or bad, as long as it is the young lady's decision, she will abide by it.
Song Jinyue took off her coat and got on the bed without saying another word. After Qiu Yun settled the young lady, she went to her room to get a bedding and spread it on the floor next to the young lady's bed.
The door was also specially locked.
The long night seems like an endless abyss.
Some people in the Duke's Mansion fell asleep peacefully, some were frightened, and some could not sleep all night.
After winter, the weather in the capital is two hours shorter than in other seasons.
At the beginning of the day, there was no sign of lightening in the sky above the head, and the lanterns hanging under the corridors in the Duke's Mansion were already lit up one by one.
Smoke was already rising from the kitchen in the southwest corner, and servants were hurrying past under the corridor, each busy with their own work.
Qiu Yun had already brought hot water into the back room and was waiting for the young lady to wash herself.
The girl in the carved bronze mirror looked a little pale and was in a daze.
Qiu Yun was already used to it. When she was still at Yunquan Villa a few days ago, the young lady would always sit in front of the carved bronze mirror and stare blankly for a while when she got up in the morning.
At first she thought that the young lady was worried about returning to the palace, but then she gradually discovered that the young lady seemed to be worried about something that she didn't know about.
If the lady doesn't want to say more, then she won't ask too much.
"Chunchan and Yunxing are still kneeling?"
"Still kneeling." Qiu Yun replied while combing her black hair.
"Let them go back and rest. There is no need to come out to serve today." After Song Jinyue finished speaking, Qiu Yun had already combed the young lady's black hair, and took out the red gold forged dress that the young lady had brought yesterday from the black lacquer and carved makeup package.
The gold hairpin comes out.
Song Jinyue shook her head slightly, raised her hand and took out a crystal-clear white jade hairpin, and carved a green lotus leaf on the head. There was no other decoration, but it looked very clear.
Song Jinyue handed the hairpin to Qiu Yun and used it today.
The gold hairpin in Qiu Yun's hand was put back into the carved makeup package.
After everything was tidied up, Song Jinyue looked at the bronze mirror again and was extremely satisfied. She stood up slowly and asked Qin Wan, "Is Miss Qin awake?"
"You're awake, and you're waiting on the porch now."
"Hey" Song Jinyue sighed. After all, Qin Wan felt a little uncomfortable staying in the Duke's mansion.
"Take this golden hairpin and the hairpin that Mrs. Shen gave you yesterday and take them out of the house to pawn them."
Song Jinyue was expressionless, while Qiu Yun was surprised.
The lady said, "Did you do it?"
Done?
Could it be that she misheard?
He looked at his lady hurriedly and questioningly.
"Done!" Song Jinyue remained expressionless.
Qiu Yun was a little embarrassed. What if the Duke knew about this?
"I just want to let my father know." Song Jinyue saw through Qiu Yun's thoughts and said with a smile.
Qiu Yun became even more confused after hearing this.
He scratched his head and pursed his lips, but followed the young lady's instructions and put the two hairpins into a black lacquer box. He thought that since the young lady wanted to let the Duke know, the pawnshop must choose the most famous one in the capital.
"How much money do you want to pledge, Miss?"
Song Jinyue tilted her head, frowned and pondered for a moment, "It's not appropriate to pay less than five hundred taels! Remember, you have to buy both pieces at the same time."
The golden hairpin given by Song Jinxi is worth fifty taels at most, but the jade hairpin given by Shen is worth at least seven hundred taels.
If Shen hadn't been so angry yesterday that she would have suppressed him with a few words in the end. Shen didn't mean to give a gift, but he just wanted to use that precious hosta to calm her down.
What is interesting is the matter between Song Jinxi and He Yuanjie.
What she prefers is herself.
If Mrs. Shen knew that she had turned something around and pawned it, she would probably be very angry.
Qiu Yun swore to obey the young lady's instructions, and the two of them were about to go out to pay their respects to Mrs. Shen.
Song Jinyue remembered something again and asked Qiu Yun to do it, "I know you have a cousin in the capital. Ask him to help keep an eye on the door of Dr. Xu's house for a while. Remember, you have to find someone to meet.
Keep an eye on people who have nothing to do with us."
She then looked at the black lacquer box on the black lacquer table. Inside were the two hairpins that Qiu Yun had just put away to use as pawns.
"One tael of silver a day, all expenses come from there." Song Jinyue raised her finger and pointed to the black lacquer box on the table.
Qiu Yun nodded, "Don't worry, young lady, I will definitely take care of things."
Although she had some rough guesses in her mind, Miss Er went to Anfu Hutong on West Street yesterday, and she vaguely guessed that there must be something wrong with the Queen's prescription.
The two of them just went out. Song Jinyue looked up and saw Qin Wan. She was still wearing the thin green shirt from yesterday. She glanced at Qiu Yun behind her and said, "Miss Qin is about the same height as you."
, go back and get some thicker clothes for Miss Qin in case of emergency, and then go out and buy some new winter clothes for Miss Qin."
"Second Miss Song, no, there's no need to bother..." Qin Wan hurriedly declined, unwilling to accept it again.
"Miss Qin, please go back and rest first. I have to go to greet Madam here. You can have breakfast first."
Qin Wan couldn't refuse anymore, for fear of delaying Miss Song's affairs, she hurriedly turned aside and made way for her.
Song Jinyue smiled and gave her a few more instructions before leaving with Qiu Yun.
Chun Chan and Yun Xing knelt half-kneeling at the door of Mingzhuxuan, clinging to each other to keep warm. Since there was no courtyard door, they leaned against the wall under the corridor and took a nap with their eyes closed.
In his sleep, his body could not help but tremble.
"Go back and have a rest. The lady said that you don't need to come out to wait on me today." Qiu Yun leaned over and pushed the two of them, and then she said after seeing their sleepy eyes.
"My maid has thanked the second lady."
"..."
When the two of them saw who was coming, they hurriedly knelt on the ground, not seeing the slightest hint of disrespect.
After a night of cold wind, the two of them had no other thoughts. They just wanted to go back to the warm house to rest.
Song Jinyue said "Hmm" and then passed in front of the two of them. There were two gray cloth quilts placed under the corridor on the other side. It must be that Mrs. Shen said before leaving yesterday that she would send two nuns to guard the door.
It’s just that I didn’t see anyone right now.
Song Jinyue stepped out of Mingzhuxuan, thinking that she would go to Zhang's Mansion today to see if Cousin Ping was leaving.
There isn't much time left for her.
My aunt can't wait too long either.
But when I think about the fact that I have defeated Shen's situation, I still don't know what Shen will do next.
Song Jinyue felt a little anxious, and her steps quickened a bit.
Qiu Yun almost trotted behind.
