Song Wan left, but before he could walk back to his courtyard, he saw the stewardess of the outer courtyard coming over with a red card.
Seeing Song Wan, she smiled and said, "Miss, the Bai family has sent a message. On the ninth day of this month, Miss Bai's wedding will be held. Mrs. Bai invites you to the banquet."
"You're getting married so soon?"
A faint smile appeared on Song Wan's face and he took the post.
As Lan Yunhe reached his age, he should have followed the husband's wishes and arranged the marriage in a hurry.
Mentioning Lan Yunhe had to remind her of Jiang Jing. Song Wan's heart felt dull and sad for a moment.
"Miss, are you going?"
"nature."
Song Wan smiled softly: "Excuse me, mama, please ask the concierge to reply to this post for me, and said that I will go to add makeup to Miss Bai's family that day."
"Old slave knows."
The stewardess asked Song Wan again about the gift he wanted to bring, and then left after telling him that it would be ready.
Song Wan was thinking deeply, holding the post wrapped in red silk and heading to his courtyard.
"big sister."
Song Yao and his personal maid quietly walked over and stood in front of Song Wan, biting their lips and saying nothing.
"Second sister, just say whatever you want."
Song Yao said: "Eldest sister really wants to attend a banquet outside the house?"
"Why can't I go?"
Song Yao did not answer, but instead said: "Eldest sister sent all the old people around my mother back to the Su Mansion. Now there is no one around my mother. Even if I want to ask the small kitchen to make soup at night, no one comes to respond. Mother in Is the eldest sister happy when the majesty of the mansion is wiped out?"
Song Wan frowned slightly: "Who is the nun next to my second sister?"
"Why does the eldest sister want to send my sister's nanny back to the Su family?"
Song Wan's tone became colder: "I'm afraid the Su family won't want you to be a mother-in-law who talks nonsense and confuses right and wrong."
"When did my sister start talking nonsense?"
Song Wan said to Jin Shu beside him: "Go and find all the housekeepers in the kitchen and see who dares to treat the mistress of the house like this."
Song Yao looked panicked and opened his mouth hurriedly: "Eldest sister, why are you doing this? Ever since you returned to the house, the house has been in a mess. Eldest sister knows that her reputation is not good, why did she agree to the marriage with the Su family? Now You also asked your third cousin to come to your door to refuse the marriage, do you know how embarrassing this is to the other daughters in the family?"
It was embarrassing enough for a woman to be rejected for marriage, but Song Wan also had people abandon her one after another. As her sister-in-law, she lost all her face.
"Yesterday, when my sister returned her handkerchief, she wrote a letter to ask about these messy things. Now, instead of being grounded in the house, the eldest sister has to go out to attend a banquet and make herself look embarrassing... Isn't the eldest sister really afraid of shaking off the last trace of the Song family's face? "
Song Wan was about to open his mouth, but was interrupted by Nanny Song behind him: "Miss, the prince has come to the house and given gifts to you and the other ladies."
"Prince?"
Song Yao pursed his lips, and a thin layer of red appeared on his cheeks.
Her father arranged for two nuns from the palace to be sent to her and Song Nian, and she began to have some speculations about her marriage.
And although the mother didn't make her words clear, the tone of her words and deeds was enough for her to guess something.
It was precisely because of this that she hated Song Wan so much.
Song Wan has repeatedly ruined the reputation of the Song family girls. Of course she has nothing to fear as a divorced woman. But she and Song Nian couldn't afford such consequences.
After all, as the legitimate daughter of the Song family, she is qualified to be the crown princess, but if it were because of Song Wan, she would only be the crown prince Liangdi. The gap is not the slightest.
Thinking that he might lose the qualification to become the mother of a country because of Song Wan, Song Yao felt depressed and couldn't swallow.
"The eldest young master came to ask the young lady, do you want to go and thank the prince?"
"Although I should thank you, it is inconvenient for my mistress and the daughter of the back house cannot be seen outside..."
"Why is it that eldest sister says it's inconvenient to see people now? Didn't she have to go out for a banquet just now?"
Song Yao's voice became lower and lower, and his tone became a little urgent.
She wanted to see the prince.
Song Wan didn't want to see him, but she wanted to see him!
Holding the handkerchief in his hand, Song Yao blushed.
Nanny Song glanced at her and frowned: "Miss..."
Song Wan smiled lightly and said, "Since the second sister wants to see the prince, just go and thank him."
Song Yao was overjoyed, left his sentence to change clothes and turned around to leave. Song Wan returned to his yard with Jin Shuluan Jian.
When she returned to the courtyard, she saw five or six boxes piled up in the room. Song Wan was a little surprised: "Are these given by the prince?"
Heng Zhi nodded and came to Song Wan's side and said: "The lady in charge of the palace told me that the prince gave these things to the young lady by name. The second and third girls only had a small box the size of a palm, with two sticks in it. A jade carving of Ruyi the size of a fingernail.”
Things given by the nobles in the palace must be kept properly. Except for daily necessities, which will be distributed to individuals, the rest must be stored in the palace's warehouse to avoid damage.
After the lady in charge delivered the things, she praised the young lady's good luck.
If her young lady was unmarried, the prince's intention would be obvious, but now...
I really can’t tell what it means.
Heng Zhi's eyes showed confusion, Song Wan casually opened the box on the table, and saw that there were some seasonal tributes inside, including snacks and some melons and fruits.
Song Wan smiled sweetly: "Jirong must have said something to the prince."
The things given were quite ordinary, but they were much thicker than those given to Song Yao and Song Nian. This was an obvious compliment.
"I'm afraid Ji Rong knows that I sent away the people close to my mother and guessed something."
"Prepare some pen and ink, I want to send a letter to Ji Rong."
Passing the red sticker in his hand to Heng Zhi, Song Wan wrote a brief letter to Ji Rong. Although the words in the letter are plain, they convey a sense of intimacy and familiarity.
After finishing writing, Song Wan carefully sealed the letter: "Send it to brother and tell him to find an opportunity to deliver it to Ji Rong."
Ji Rong is the prince's personal attendant, and 80%25 of the time he will accompany him today.
After finishing her work and seeing that she was the only one left in the room, Heng Zhi held the Bai family invitation and said, "Miss, do you really want to go to the banquet?"
"I'm afraid I don't know what will be arranged outside..."
Song Wan smiled and said: "How can a person live in this world without being slandered?"
"Saints are often criticized by ignorant people, small talk and big talk, let alone ordinary people?"
Whether it was a matter of going with Jiang Jianyi or Su Xie coming to refuse the marriage, it did make her lose her reputation, but she didn't realize that it was her fault. Song Wan believed that she acted upright and sat upright. She was not afraid of gods and ghosts, and she was worthy of people's hearts. Why should she feel shameless in front of others?
"Hengzhi, I am not wrong."
"A gentleman doesn't talk about others. Those who always talk about people's difficulties are probably not gentlemen."
"Then why should I live in fear of the villain's words?"
"The more I fear other people's rumors, the more I hear such voices. Because when those people see you being afraid and seeing you hiding, they know you are in pain and know how to hurt you the most."
"Words are powerful weapons that can hurt people, but if I am not afraid, no one can do anything to me."
Song Wan stood up and opened the hanging persimmon sent by Shen Qianyu, then put it to the tip of his nose and smelled it with a smile.
"Hengzhi, we are not only going to the Bai family for a banquet, but also going happily. When those who want to hurt me know that I am not moved by their words, nor will I be hurt by their words and deeds , it’s just natural that they are boring.”
Heng Zhi's eyes turned red when he heard this and nodded fiercely.
Her master and servant were enjoying the hanging persimmons given by the prince in the room, but Shen Qianyu suddenly became restless after hearing that Miss Song's wife was changing clothes and would come to thank her and salute soon.
