"Mom, thank you for your trouble."
Aunt Song nodded and left with a smile.
Mrs. Song's face was gloomy. Song glanced across her face and quickly looked away.
Although Song Wan didn't have much impression of his biological mother, his brother said that his mother was a famous and talented girl in Beijing.
The old lady of the Chengyang Marquis Mansion was one of the few people who wanted to marry her mother. She had also thought about marrying her mother to the old marquis before.
She didn't know why her mother ended up marrying into the Song family, but Song Wan was certain that her mother was an extremely smart woman.
She had known since she was a child that her mother had left many elderly people behind for her in the mansion. Not to mention Grandma Song, the general manager of the backyard of Song Mansion, who had raised her up with her in her arms. Even some of the stewards on the sidelines were also her mother. The confidants left behind.
Mother once told Aunt Song that people's hearts are fickle, and those who are dull and timid now may not necessarily be timid and stick to their duties when they have their own children.
It's just that what Mrs. Song did in the past was not excessive. When she was a child, Song Yao and Song Nian were still young, so Mrs. Song had no time to care about her. Naturally, she didn't know his character, so she never used the methods left by her mother.
Later, she went to Chengyang Marquis Mansion early to become a widow, but she did not take her into consideration.
Apart from visiting each other during the New Year's Day and giving some festive gifts, the two of them had no contact with each other.
It was only when Mrs. Song had selfish motives and wanted to send her back to the Marquis of Chengyang that she lost some patience with Mrs. Song.
But what happened to Yang Xun a few days ago really annoyed her.
Song Wan lowered his eyes slightly, not bothering to look at Mrs. Song's expression of whether she wanted to cry or not.
It's not that she hasn't mentioned it before, it's just that Mrs. Song's view is too shallow and too close. She really can't remind her every day, morning and night, to take a longer view.
Half an hour had passed, and the women were all packed up and standing in front of Song Wan's yard. Li Zhen asked the people around him to take them away one by one, which made many young servants of the Song family look in shock.
Song Yao and Song Nian were standing outside the courtyard. Song Yao was about to step forward, but was grabbed by Song Nian.
"Sister, what are you doing?"
"I'm going to ask eldest sister, why do you treat your mother like this? Over the years, my mother has worked hard without any merit. Now she has sent everyone around her away. How can my mother still gain a foothold in the house in the future?"
Song Yao's eyes turned red: "Now that everyone in the house knows that my mother can't even protect her own confidant, who else will look up to us and be used by us in the future?"
"My mother has been the mistress of the Song Dynasty for more than ten years. If word spread about today's incident, wouldn't it become the biggest joke in Beijing?"
Song Nian pulled Song Yao with a serious look on his face: "If word of what happened today is spread, it will only be said that my mother sent someone back to my family to take care of my aunt. If you ignore this and make a fuss about it, you will really make your mother the biggest joke in Beijing."
If she can't control her servants and can't control her daughter, and if the second daughter of the Song Dynasty is allowed to openly argue with her aunt, she will have a reputation of being domineering, rude, and disrespectful to her elders. And her mother's reputation of being incompetent and virtuous will never be washed away in her life. clean.
She had long said that her eldest sister's marriage should not be rushed, but her mother and Song Yao thought she was too young and never listened to her.
It's good now, what kind of trouble is this?
Song had a serious face: "Second sister, don't cry. I have already found someone to find my father. My father will make the decision for my mother."
The two of them waited outside the courtyard for a long time. When Mrs. Song walked out of Song Wan's courtyard in a daze, Song Lan'an never showed up.
Mrs. Song left, and Song Wan found a place to sit next to Li Zhen. The two of them drank tea quietly without saying a word. Only when Heng Zhi Heng Wu collected the gifts that Li Zhen brought to Song Wan did they look at each other and smile.
Song Wan said: "It's really a big deal to ask my aunt to make a trip for such a trivial matter."
"It's not all about you."
Li Zhen patted Song Wan's hand: "It's your useless third cousin..."
"Your uncle sent him to Jingshan Academy. Even if you hadn't written to me, I would still have sent him to Beijing. What's more, your uncle knew about the Yanghou Mansion in the same city, and he had already told me to come and take a look. But there is somewhere at home that can help.”
"It's Wan'er's fault to make uncle and aunt worried."
"What should and should not be done."
Li Zhen sighed, with a bit of pity in her eyes: "Don't blame your aunt for speaking so fast. Although Su Qi is a little confused, what she said is not unreasonable. You are not a long-term solution for the Song family, so it is better to do it as soon as possible. Make your own plans."
Song Wan smiled slightly when he heard this, but there was a hint of loneliness in his eyes.
The girl's cheeks were rosy, and she showed a certain amount of flirtatiousness with just a blink of an eye. Seeing this, Li Zhen's mind suddenly moved.
"Wan'er!"
Song Wan raised his head, his face still filled with bright tenderness.
Li Zhen grabbed her hand and said with a smile: "Wan'er, what do you think of Su Xie?"
"Third cousin?"
"yes."
Li Zhen's eyes lit up: "Although Su Xie is two years younger than you, you are marrying into my own family after all. Both your uncle and I will treat you as our own daughter."
The more he talked about it, the more he felt that this matter was reasonable. Li Zhen said with a smile: "That kid Su Xie is incompetent. You can help my aunt with discipline and discipline once you get in."
"Wan'er, think about it carefully, my aunt is sincere."
She took Song Wan's hand and said word by word: "Instead of leaving the marriage to others, it is better for you to make your own decision early. If you agree, my aunt will ask Su She to come to propose marriage to you."
Song Wan was a little surprised for a moment, but she had to admit that Li Zhen's proposal made her a little moved.
My aunt was right. Instead of leaving the marriage to Mrs. Song, it would be better for her to marry her uncle's family.
Her uncle and aunt will not look down upon her second marriage, and Su Xie has two older brothers, and her cousins are also kind people. No matter whether Su Xie likes her or not, she can find a place in the Su Mansion. A world without any disturbance.
Song Wan pursed his lips and thought about the marriage secretly.
Li Zhen was very happy to see that she was also interested.
Su She is kind-hearted but has a wild temper, and ordinary girls might not be able to control him. But Wan'er was different. Wan'er was beautiful, docile and smart. Her family, Su Xie, would definitely like this cousin.
She knows her son best. Whenever Su Xie sees Wan'er, she will be attracted to him.
The more Li Zhen thought about it, the more she felt that this marriage couldn't be better. She would take Wan'er back to her home, and her husband would not have to worry every day that Song Lanan would not treat Wan'er well.
"Just think about it, think about it, I'll write a letter to your uncle to make him happy too."
Just as Song Wan was about to stop him, he saw Li Zhen smiling and going back to the side room where Song Mansion was entertaining guests with the maid beside him.
When Li Zhen left the next day, she repeatedly asked Song Wan to think about it carefully.
Song Wan couldn't make up his mind, so he told Song Futing about the matter.
Song Fu was also worried about her future during this period, and was a little moved when he heard about this.
Let's not talk about Su Xie, just her uncle, aunt and cousin Su Zhen will protect Wan'er and make Wan'er safe and worry-free throughout her life.
He was thinking about his sister's future every day. Even when he was on duty in the official department, he couldn't help but be distracted when he had time.
Shen Qianyu looked at Song Fu with a sad face curiously, and after thinking for a while, he couldn't help but move forward.
"I see Mr. Song worrying about himself. I wonder what is worrying him?"
