Enter the Room

Qian quickly covered Song Jiuxue's mouth.

The marriage to the Xiong family has not yet been completed, and someone from their family said such a thing, what does the Xiong family think?

Mrs. Song Shiyi's family was even more embarrassed. She just wanted to flatter Mr. Qian, who knew she would get such words?

Fortunately, Mrs. Yan was older and had more experience. She hurriedly smiled and said, "Children's words are unbridled." She changed the subject and asked about Song Jiuxue's kite: "Where did you buy such a long centipede kite? Liang County Is there such a good kite master?"

This is another thing that Song Jiuxue is proud of.

She took off Qian's hand and said happily: "My brother-in-law made it for me. Not only did he make me a kite, he also brought me a kite from Hukou. You see, that tiger kite was given to me by my brother-in-law." bought."

Mrs. Yan was shocked, but she didn't show it on her face. She smiled and touched Song Jiuxue's head and said, "Go and play! If you are thirsty, remember to ask the little maid to feed you tea."

Song Jiuxue nodded with a smile and ran away quickly.

Song Jiuyun was thoughtful.

On the way back, he specifically asked Song Jiuxue: "Mr. Yuan told you that if your second sister is not doing well, you should let her come back with the child?"

Song Jixue was eating a sweetie. He nodded and said, "Brother-in-law said that as long as we are not afraid of other people's judgment, we can marry whoever we want. He will take care of the other things!"

Song Jiyun was stunned.

This is a very heavy promise!

After a long while, she asked Song Jiuxue: "Master Yuan told you that from now on you can marry whoever you want. For other things, does he have to do it?"

Song Jiuxue nodded heavily and chirped: "My brother-in-law said that he would go back to Nanjing before returning to the capital. He asked me if I wanted to go with him? I want to go. Sister, please quickly agree to my brother-in-law and let him take me with him." I have never been to Nanjing! My brother-in-law said that my second sister can also go. My brother-in-law also said that before getting married, I should go out to see someone, so as not to be stuck in the one-third of an acre in the backyard of my house for clothes and jewelry. Those who are compassionate will not live happily no matter how good their days are."

She pulled Song Jiuyun's sleeve and acted coquettishly.

Song Jiyun gently touched her head, his expression became more serious, and he said: "It was Mr. Yuan who asked you to ask me if I agree with you following him to Nanjing?"

Song Jiuxue nodded repeatedly and continued to act coquettishly: "Sister, just agree, right? I promise not to run around and take care of the second sister. When Xiaosi grows up, I will accompany her to Nanjing."

But this is no longer just helping!

Song Jiyun knew that Song Jiuxue's "positiveness" could not be dispelled at this time, so she simply used the word "drag": "I will reply to you after I discuss this matter with Mr. Yuan."

As expected, Song Jiuxue stopped insisting and sat down obediently to eat the candy. For fear of upsetting Song Jiyun, Song Jiyun would not let her go to Nanjing.

Song Jiyun laughed and held his sister in his arms, but his heart was in a mess.

Did she misunderstand Yuan Yunzhong?

She carefully recalled the scene when she asked Yuan Yunzhong for help after the incident at the Feng Temple.

How did Yuan Yunzhong answer her?

"Since I promised you to be your fiancé, I will definitely keep my word and keep my promise!"

Song Jiyun was horrified.

What if his "a promise of a thousand gold" means something else?

Back home, Yuan Yunzhong had already arranged dinner - Fengyue Wubian brought their specialty noodles, and also ordered Song Jiuyun's favorite steamed lion's head and Qian's favorite boiled dried shredded noodles from Taohuaju.

The boys also sent kites that had been packed: "My uncle said that he asked Aunt Zheng to pack them up so that they can be used every year in the future."

Grandma Zheng hurriedly sent the little maid to pick up the kite, and then couldn't help but praise: "Master Yuan is really careful and thoughtful, and everything is arranged properly."

Why doesn't Qian think so?

She sighed softly.

Song Jiyun could not sit still. She stood under the eaves for a long time. It was not until the servants at home started lighting lamps and hanging lanterns that she went to Yinyu Hall.

Yuan Yunzhong ordered the servants to change the tea sets.

The overglaze used in winter was replaced by blue and white porcelain used in summer.

Song Jiyun paused slightly.

Shao Qing, who happened to come in, saw her standing hesitantly at the door. While inviting her in, he greeted her with a smile: "Miss Song is here!"

Yuan Yunzhong then turned around and looked over.

Under the light, his dark eyes were as bright as the morning stars.

Song Jiyun felt a slight pain in his heart, but he still walked over with a smile, took a blue and white porcelain cup, looked at it, and said: "It's a ball flower. Why not poppy poppies?"

A few days ago, the Song Kiln Factory fired new blue and white poppies, and specially gave a set to Yin Yutang.

The tea set with the ball flower pattern is old blue and white, and the background color is pea green.

Shao Qing smiled and said: "Young master said that in summer, new blue and white flowers are used, and in spring, old blue and white flowers are more suitable for the season."

Song Jiyun smiled and nodded, and said casually: "Then have you decided when to set off back to the capital? I still owe you a reward of one hundred thousand taels of silver, so you have to give me a few days to prepare it!"

Yuan Yunzhong was stunned.

Song Jiuyun simply spoke more clearly.

She said warmly: "Although the marriage between my second sister and the Xiong family will not be publicized, everyone in the clan will definitely invite me to sit down. You have already helped me a lot today, and I can't trouble you anymore. It has delayed your business. Fortunately, the side door of Yinyu Hall leads to the alley outside. If you have something to do, you can go in and out through Yinyu Hall. Otherwise, they will catch you gossiping when they come to the house to make trouble."

What's the meaning?

Yuan Yunzhong looked at Song Jiyun in shock.

Is she trying to draw a clear line with him?

Why is this happening?

Wasn't it good before?

The corners of his mouth twisted, as if he didn't know where to start the question.

Song Jiuyun's eyes were a little hot.

But she still said: "Didn't we agree before that our fake engagement will be explained to everyone after you leave? I think it's better not to let more people misunderstand it. I'm afraid that no matter how I explain it, everyone will be confused." If you don’t believe it, you’ll be in trouble!”

What she meant couldn't be clearer.

But they had made a good deal before, so why did they suddenly change their minds?

Yuan Yunzhong looked at Song Jiyun with a blank expression.

Song Jiuyun's heart was as sharp as a knife.

But there are some things that will only make people more reluctant to let go.

"I won't disturb Mr. Yuan!" Her voice sounded a little hoarse for some reason, "I have decided to support the family and stick to the family business. I'm afraid I won't have time to see you off on the day Mr. Yuan leaves. Please don't blame me, Mr. Yuan. "

Song Jiyun didn't dare to look at Yuan Yunzhong and quickly turned around and left.

Yuan Yunzhong stood there blankly, like a sculpture.

"Wait!" But just when Song Jiyun stepped out of the hall and was about to walk out of the courtyard, he called out to Song Jiyun.

"You mean, we have a fake engagement?" He looked at Song Jiyun intently and said every word, "You asked me about the engagement before, but you just wanted me to help you deal with people outside?"

His face was pale, reminiscent of the snow on the green bamboo branches when it first snowed.

Song Jiyun closed his eyes and said "yes" in a low voice.

"Is it because you don't want to leave Jingdezhen?" Yuan Yunzhong said in a deep voice.
