"What do you mean by not asking for anything? Just talk to grandma about it."
Song Wan said softly: "Since Miss Lin is a female member of the Hou family, the rules of behavior cannot be as arbitrary as in the past. Wan'er wants to ask her grandmother and mother to allocate one or two people to teach Huaisu and Miss Lin some rules for women. .”
Jiang's mother said: "Wan'er's words are serious. In the past, it was hard to say anything if you had no reputation or status. Now that you have become Yi'er's housemate, if anything embarrassing happens, it will bring disgrace to our family."
Mrs. Jiang also nodded, but she had other plans in her mind and didn't care about it. She casually said to Jiang Xingjian: "It's really inappropriate for that girl to sit without sitting or standing without standing. She really needs to arrange some teachings." Grandma teaches her how to behave. I can’t spare many people around me, so how about asking the Qishun family and your wet nurse Li to teach her? The other two people will come out of your mother’s room, so that your mother will be safe. The relationship between the two will not be too harsh."
If the two nuns came out of the old lady's room, they would be suspected of interfering in their affairs. Jiang Xingjian knew that his grandmother had good intentions, so he responded in a low voice.
Mrs. Jiang nodded secretly, looked at Song Wan who was sitting beside her and said: "You also know that your mother has hurt her body from overthinking in the past few years. There is no one in this house who can take up the burden. Now that Yi'er is back, you You don’t have to stay in the courtyard, how about I leave the affairs of our Marquis Mansion to you?"
"I won't let you work too hard. After all, your mother and I are behind you."
"Yes Wan'er, if you help my mother, she will be more relaxed."
Handing over the power of Zhongfang to Song Wan was to make up for Jiang Xingjian's bringing people back, and it was also the Chengyang Marquis Mansion's appeasement to the Song family. Song Wan knew that he had to accept it even if he didn't want to, so he could only nod his head and agree.
Now that Jiang Xingjian is back, Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang are getting more and more happy the more they see Song Wan. She has just agreed to take over the affairs of the mansion, and Mrs. Jiang asks the housekeeper to bring her the cards from the mansion.
"If you don't understand anything, just ask Jiang Fu's wife."
"Wan'er knows."
After taking the pair of cards, Song Wan handed the enamel-embedded colored treasure box to Heng Zhi.
After having dinner at Fuhe Hall, Jiang Xingjian and Song Wan went to Lan Courtyard. The two were silent for a long time. When they saw the courtyard gate, Jiang Xingjian said: "Jia Yue will not pose any threat to you. You Why rush to give her the position of concubine?"
Song Wan raised his eyebrows slightly, but said nothing.
"In the future, I will raise Jiayue as a side chamber."
Song Wan smiled faintly: "My husband has been away for many years, and I have forgotten all the rules and etiquette. Don't say that Miss Lin and her husband have had an affair and lost their reputation. There is no way that they can become the concubine of the Hou Mansion. Today, my grandmother and mother personally decided to marry her." With your position, how will your husband move again in the future?"
"It's nothing if a husband occasionally forgets the rules of going to Beijing, but if he even loses the word filial piety, he will probably bring shame to all the ancestors of the Chengyang Marquis Mansion."
While the two were talking, Jiang Fu's wife came over from a distance with a group of housekeepers.
Seeing this, Song Wan lowered his eyes and said, "My husband is a concubine, so it's not a big deal to show off my face. However, the century-old reputation of the Chengyang Marquis Mansion and my Song family cannot be wasted. I hope that my husband will not bring shame to both houses."
"Jia Yue..."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Song Wan turned around and called the housekeeper. Before Jiang Xingjian could finish saying that her identity was unusual, the beauty in front of her had already left.
He frowned and said nothing, holding back his anger.
But one day, Song Wan disrupted his plan. Jiang Xingjian entered the Xiuyan Pavilion with her eyebrows pressed, thinking about how to tell Lin Jiayue about this. As soon as I entered the house, I was hugged.
The little girl wrapped her arms tightly around his waist and spoke softly: "Brother Xingjian, do you know that every time you are with another woman, Yue'er feels indescribable pain in her heart."
"Originally we agreed that you would marry me when we returned to Beijing, but now there is a real lady in this house who is as powerful as a Buddha. What have I become? If I had known this, I might as well have stayed in Suhe. Better than now."
Jiang Xingjian pulled Lin Jiayue away, feeling again that her behavior was really inappropriate.
In the past, when the two of them were out together, Lin Jiayue would occasionally show off her daughter-like cuteness due to her young age, but she would never do anything out of the ordinary. Now, perhaps because of her uneasiness, she couldn't help but want to get close to him. To prove that the two of them are in love.
only……
Jiang Xingjian pressed his forehead and felt a little tired: "The old lady has arranged for you to be educated by the nuns. Today someone will come to teach you the rules of the Marquis. You must be careful when the nuns teach you. If you are still as wanton as you are now. If you act recklessly, you may suffer losses in the future.”
Lin Jiayue's expression froze when she heard the word "nurturing mama" in the west: "I don't want to learn those bad rules that suppress human nature. Could it be that you want me to become that big wooden Buddha?"
Jiang Xingjian just didn't listen: "If you want to stay in the Hou Mansion, you must learn these rules. Besides, Song Wan is my legitimate wife and will be the mistress of the Chengyang Hou Mansion in the future. But you don't want to call her Madam." , you can’t be so rude.”
Lin Jiayue stood up, her face completely devoid of all cuteness and cuteness: "She has only one spot but she wants to be in front of me? Brother Xingjian..."
"Today, my grandmother has filled in your name, birthday, and date of birth in the mansion's registration department. You will be the concubine in the mansion in the future. Song Wan is indeed ahead of you."
"Concubine? I don't agree to be a concubine. Why should they write me down in some book? And I don't know my birth date. Why should they make decisions for me? How can I become a concubine? Brother Xingjian, You know I want to be a couple for the rest of my life."
Jiang Xingjian was so quarreled by Lin Jiayue that she had a headache: "If you don't want to be a concubine, I will send you out of the house today."
“……”
Lin Jiayue bit her lip, unwilling to give in.
She really likes Jiang Xingjian.
She was not sure if she would ever meet such a man again, and even if she did, she might not like him.
Lin Jiayue lowered her head and bit her lip in hesitation.
Even though she is a concubine, she can straighten herself out in the future, right? As long as she holds Jiang Xingjian's heart firmly in her hands, she doesn't believe that she can't compare to a woman who looks like a piece of wood.
"You know that I can't bear to leave you, let alone leave the Hou Mansion. You just bully me wantonly because I like you."
Lin Jiayue burst into tears. When Jiang Xingjian saw this, he sighed softly: "I will carry you to the side room in the future, so you don't need to worry."
Lin Jiayue heard this but thought to herself that the man's words were not reliable at all.
