Everyone said that Song Jin married a good husband. That man was handsome, serious, and came all the way from Kyoto to find her.
Every time Song Jin heard this while going to the street, she ...
Chapter 90 It’s actually Master Pei!
Mrs. Lin stared at the mark on Song Jin's chest, her eyes filled with unconcealable surprise.
Her whole body was trembling, and her beautiful eyes were instantly filled with tears. She walked over absentmindedly, wanting to gently touch the scar on Song Jin's heart with her warm fingertips.
She asked softly, "Does it hurt?"
Song Jin was only wearing a small piece of clothing now. Although Chun Xing and Mrs. Lin were the only two people in the room, Song Jin still subconsciously covered herself.
She didn't expect Mrs. Lin to come in when she was changing clothes.
Although this is the Lin Residence, it seems a bit impolite for Mrs. Lin to come in like this.
But after all, it was in someone else's home, and Mrs. Lin might be a little worried about whether she was burned, so it was understandable that she followed in to check.
But why did Mrs. Lin have this expression when she saw the scar on her chest...
It seems like it hurts more than her?
And why does she look like she's about to cry but doesn't? And I have to touch her.
Although Song Jin was not disgusted by Mrs. Lin's hand, he always felt it was strange.
and……
Song Jin suddenly thought of her mother, whom she had only met twice and was not familiar with.
In her memory, her mother didn't seem too young.
Her mother was already middle-aged when she was born, but Song Jin did not feel how much she loved her.
Even her mother didn't know that she had a scar on her heart.
On the contrary it is this Mrs. Lin.
Song Jin always felt a strange sense of familiarity with her.
Song Jin was stunned and answered subconsciously: "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Mrs. Lin didn't dare to touch him. She withdrew her hand abruptly, but clenched it tightly under her sleeve.
She restrained herself, trying not to let the girl in front of her notice anything unusual, and only asked, "How did Shopkeeper Song get injured?"
Song Jin thought that it was her wounds that scared Mrs. Lin, so she explained nonchalantly, "My grandfather told me that my family didn't take good care of me when I was a child, so I got the scars. But it doesn't matter. It doesn't affect me now, but it looks a little scary."
There was no resentment in the girl's words, as if she was talking about something insignificant.
But Mrs. Lin couldn't bear to listen any longer.
She turned her head away, her voice choking with sobs: "Chun Xing, help Shopkeeper Song change his clothes."
Then he closed the door and left.
Song Jin stared at Madam Lin in a daze. She was a little confused: "Sister Chun Xing, did my scar scare Madam Lin?"
Chun Xing shook her head: "No, girl, you should change your clothes first to avoid catching a cold."
I don’t know if it was Song Jin’s illusion, but after seeing the scar on his chest, Lian Chunxing’s attitude towards him changed a little.
Song Jin thought they felt sorry for him, so he quickly said, "Sister Chun Xing, my wound doesn't hurt anymore, it just looks scary, you don't have to worry about me."
Chun Xing also sniffed. She carefully changed Song Jin's dress and asked, "Miss, have you ever thought about removing the scar?"
Song Jin shook his head: "No, I'm used to it. It doesn't affect anything."
Chun Xing said nothing more. She just put Song Jin's dress on and combed her hair to fit her dress better.
Song Jin was a little embarrassed: "Sister Chun Xing, I'll bring it back to you after I change my dress."
"No need for that." Chun Xing said, "It was the maid who was clumsy. This dress is for you as compensation."
Song Jin knew that the Lin family didn't need such a dress, and she had already worn it, so it would be awkward to return it. "Okay, I'll take it. I'll bring some new cakes to Madam Lin in two days."
"Okay." Chun Xing said with a smile, "Our Madam is already very happy that you can come."
Chun Xing dressed Song Jin up and sent her out.
Until he left, Song Jin did not see Mrs. Lin again.
Chun Xing explained: "Today is the day when our wife is checking the accounts. She is quite busy and should be in the accounting office right now."
Song Jin had long known that Mrs. Lin was not a noble lady hiding in a deep mansion. She had her own business, and it was not a small one.
Song Jin understood: "It's okay, I'll leave first."
Chun Xing watched them leave, then turned back to the yard, only to see Mrs. Lin, who was supposed to be in the accounting office, was in the room.
Her eyes were red and swollen, as if she had just cried.
Mrs. Lin said in a hoarse voice: "She went out?"
Chun Xing replied in a low voice: "Yes."
Mrs. Lin's voice was hoarse but firm. After she saw the scars on Song Jin's body with her own eyes, her head began to hurt.
My nerves were tense and I felt dizzy from time to time.
She ordered, "Go, send someone to find the midwife who delivered me."
Chun Xing didn't dare to delay and just said, "Yes."
Seeing Chun Xing walk out quickly, Mrs. Lin propped herself up and moved to the bed to lie down.
But as soon as she closed her eyes, all those things that happened back then reappeared before her eyes.
In the darkness, she seemed to be back in that bloody and desperate night.
--
Song Jin took the bill that had just been settled from the Lin Mansion, a heavy bag of silver, and felt very satisfied holding it in his hand.
Enough for me to go to Quer with Queer tonight!
Song Jin returned to the snack shop, and Que'er stopped wiping the dust: "Sister Xiao Jin, is this the new skirt you bought? It's so beautiful!"
Song Jin waved his hand: "No, no, my clothes got wet when I went to the Lin Mansion today. Madam Lin gave them to me."
"I heard that the Lin family's Jinxiufang is one of the best in Kyoto. Now I see that it is indeed true!" Que'er sighed: "The skirt is beautiful, but a little expensive."
"It doesn't matter! We'll go buy a set later!" Song Jin put the silver he had just received on the table and said generously, "Today, we'll spend it!"
Que'er was a little reluctant at first, but she was also happy that Sister Xiaojin was back, so she quickly agreed: "Okay!"
The two girls were laughing in the shop when they heard a voice from behind.
The voice sounded a little embarrassed, but it seemed like he couldn't bring himself to say it, so he said, "Song Jin."
Song Jin and Que'er looked back.
Que'er didn't quite recognize who the person in front of her was, but Song Jin did.
Jiang Yao?
Why is she here?
Song Jin walked over with no expression on his face: "Miss Jiang, why are you here? Are you here to buy some cakes?"
Jiang Yao twisted her fingers and looked at Song Jin hesitating. Finally, she closed her eyes and said simply, "I'm here to apologize to you!"
Song Jin: "Ah?"
Once the words were out, the rest became much easier.
Jiang Yao said, "I was anxious yesterday and told everyone that you were a widow. I only wanted to let my brother know, but I didn't expect there were other people around. Anyway..."
Jiang Yao lowered her head: "I'm sorry."
Song Jin paused for a moment before she said, "Forget it, I don't blame you. Besides, you were telling the truth."
After all, it was Song Jin himself who told her this.
However, Song Jin doesn’t want to say that she is a widow now.
After all, Xie Qiao was not dead, and he was a good man who took King Qi in despite of the fact.
"It's just that there were some misunderstandings about what I said before that I was a widow. There are too many things involved, so it's a bit difficult to explain." Song Jin himself was a little confused.
Jiang Yao didn't care about those.
She was punished by her mother when she returned home yesterday. She felt very guilty, so she went to find Song Jin, but she didn't expect that Song Jin had already left Xie's house.
Jiang Yao asked in a low voice: "Song Jin, did you leave the Xie family because of what happened yesterday? Is your aunt angry with you?"
But just now when Jiang Yao went to Xie's house and mentioned Song Jin, she didn't see how angry her aunt was.
"No, it has nothing to do with you." Song Jin didn't want to say more, and only said: "Anyway, you don't have to think about it anymore. And Mr. Jiang, please tell him for me that I don't like him and won't be with him."
Although Song Jin witnessed Jiang Yan's reaction after he found out she was a widow yesterday, she felt that it was better to make things clear.
Jiang Yao was even more embarrassed: "Okay, my brother just doesn't dare to see you, I'll tell him when I get back. By the way."
Jiang Yao mentioned: "Just now I heard you say you were going out to play tonight? How about this, I'll invite you to go, and that'll be my apology to you, okay?"
Jiang Yao was just a noble lady who had been spoiled since childhood and had no bad intentions.
Song Jin hesitated.
Jiang Yao begged in a low voice: "If you don't go, it means you still haven't forgiven me."
Song Jin glanced at Que'er.
Finding that Que'er didn't object, he finally said, "Okay, but we're going to listen to the new pianist play the piano tonight. Is that okay with you?"
Jiang Yao nodded: "Is it the new and recently famous musician? I also want to meet him. Don't worry, I will arrange it! See you tonight!"
Song Jin nodded.
Jiang Yao glanced around the shop, bought a box of pastries to take back, paid the bill and left.
Que'er came over: "Sister Xiaojin, this..."
Song Jin told Que'er what happened yesterday.
Que'er was a little angry: "How could she do this! It was all my cousin's own wish, and..."
Que'er whispered: "Besides, my brother-in-law is not dead. Sister Xiaojin, you are not a real widow!"
Song Jin reached out his hand to comfort Que'er: "Forget it, it's better to have less trouble than more. We just need to do business well and make more money. That's the serious matter."
Que'er agreed: "Sister Xiaojin is right!"
The two of them packed up, closed the shop, went to buy a new dress, and appeared at Wanhe Teahouse on time.
Jiang Yao had been waiting inside for a long time. When she saw Song Jin and Que'er, she asked the maid to bring them up.
Jiang Yao is the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, so she is powerful and influential, and the private room she booked is also the best.
After the morning, Jiang Yao was no longer embarrassed. She asked Song Jinqueer to sit down. After a few words, Jiang Yao said, "Hurry! The zither player is here!"
The three of them looked down.
The location of the private room is excellent, and Song Jin recognized the musician on the stage at a glance!
This is not Pei Chao!
Jiang Yao turned her head and saw Song Jin's expression. She asked, "Do you know this zither player?"
Song Jin nodded: "Yes, I saw him before in my hometown."
Jiang Yao: “Is that so…”
Before Jiang Yao could say anything else, Pei Chao on the stage seemed to feel Song Jin's gaze.
He first looked around, and then inadvertently, his eyes met Song Jin's!
The moment he saw Song Jin, Pei Chao was stunned for a moment, then he seemed to realize something and smiled at Song Jin.
Seeing Pei Chao smile, the girls at the tables below couldn't help but let out low cries.
Then Pei Chao began to play.
After not seeing him for a year, his piano playing has improved even more!
After a few songs ended, everyone was still excited for a long time, and the girls were having heated discussions.
The same goes for Jiang Yao.
Jiang Yao still felt a little embarrassed in front of Song Jin.
She had originally been thinking about whether she could use Song Jin's relationship to have a word with Master Pei Qin, but before she could open her mouth, she heard a knock on the door of the private room.
Pei Chao said from outside: "Miss Song."
Song Jin instantly recognized Pei Chao's voice. She asked Jiang Yao first, "Miss Jiang, it's Master Pei. Can we let him in?"
Jiang Yao immediately said, "Yes! Of course! With so many of us, no one will say anything!"
"Okay." Song Jin stood up and welcomed Pei Chao in.
Pei Chao knew that there were other people in the room. He politely sat as far away from them as possible and said, "I didn't expect to meet Miss Song in Kyoto. What a coincidence."
Song Jin was also a little surprised: "Yeah, I didn't expect that the musician they were talking about was you!"
Pei Chao nodded, a little shy: "Yes, I didn't expect that listeners in Kyoto like my piano more than listeners in other places. I am very ashamed."
Song Jin praised: "Master Pei, your zither skills are superb. Sooner or later, you will be famous everywhere."
Pei Chao also smiled.
Jiang Yao couldn't hold back any longer. She gently tugged at Song Jin's sleeve and whispered, "Please introduce them to me."
Song Jin nodded and was about to speak.
But unexpectedly, Xie Qiao's voice suddenly came from the door -
"Ajin."
