Chapter 326: It turns out that she is Song Jiuyuan's childhood sweetheart
"Ruhua, you are thoughtful."
Song Qing looked at Jiang Ruhua with emotion, "It's hard for a girl like you to come so far to see us.
I will write a letter back to your father and tell him not to worry."
"Yes, Sister Ruhua, we are all fine."
Song Jiuli took Jiang Ruhua's hand affectionately and said, "You are not in good health, you can't be so tired."
Madam Song's eyebrows were calm, and she just said, "Your father is really something.
It's such a long journey, how can you, a girl, come here alone? It's too dangerous."
Although Song Jiuchi didn't say anything, the expression on his face was visibly gentle, which was enough to show that he had a good impression of Jiang Ruhua.
Song Jiuyuan, on the other hand, was sitting there alone drinking tea, without any expression, until he caught a glimpse of Jiang Wan, then a smile appeared in his eyes.
"Wanwan, why are you here?"
"Wanwan."
Madam Song hurriedly stood up and pulled Jiang Wan into the inner room. Jiang Wan finally got a clear look at the girl's appearance.
Jiang Ruhua had delicate features, but her face was a little sickly pale. She was a beauty like Lin Daiyu.
"Li'er, who is this?"
When Jiang Ruhua's gaze fell upon Jiang Wan's beautiful face, a complex emotion flashed across the depths of her eyes.
However, the girl who had been staying in the back house all year round quickly hid her emotions, as if she was just simply curious.
Song Jiuli said happily: "This is Sister Wanwan, she... her name is Jiang Wan, and she is also my good sister!"
She originally wanted to say that Jiang Wan was her sister-in-law, but now that they have divorced, it is not convenient to introduce them.
It was Madam Song who took over the topic and said to Jiang Wan, "This is Jiang Ruhua, the daughter of your husband's good friend.
When he was young, he lived in our house for a period of time and had a close relationship with Li'er."
It turned out to be Song Jiuyuan’s childhood sweetheart.
"Aunt Song, when we were little, Brother Yuan and Jiuchi loved to play with me and Li'er the most."
Jiang Ruhua blinked her eyes playfully, but her hands hanging at her sides were slightly clenched.
Jiang Wan, she had heard of her, and it seemed that she was the wife that Brother Yuan had married in the past.
That's why she calmly showed her close relationship with the Song family.
Jiang Wan was not stupid and she quickly realized that the other party didn't seem to like her very much.
She raised her eyebrows and nodded slightly, but the feeling of joy she had when she left the house in the morning had gradually dissipated.
Instead, there is a slight sour taste.
She was a little impulsive when she got excited, and she really wanted to tell Song Jiuyuan that they could give it a try.
But Jiang Ruhua's appearance was like a blow to the head.
It made her realize that this was not the modern era, but the ancient times with a strict feudal system.
Even if everyone in the Song family treats her as a relative, they may not allow another person to interfere in her relationship with Song Jiuyuan.
There are completely different values between them, and what Song Jiuyuan means by responsibility is different from her understanding.
What's more, there is the concubine that the dog emperor gave to Song Jiuyuan, who arrived at an unknown time.
Her heart sank little by little. She thought about it again. This kind of thing should be considered carefully.
Perhaps noticing the change in Jiang Wan's expression, Song Jiuyuan felt inexplicably panicked.
"Wanwan, shall we talk outside?"
He had a hunch that when Jiang Wan came, her face would be filled with joy, because he saw the corners of her upturned mouth slowly close.
"No, it's nothing, it's just that the painting fell on the carriage yesterday, and I came to get it."
Jiang Wan waved her hand as if she was relaxed. She admitted that she was a little timid.
She felt that she should think carefully about their relationship.
Song Jiuyuan's deep eyes were filled with disappointment. "Okay, I'll have someone go get it from the study."
"Sister Wanwan is very beautiful."
Jiang Ruhua suddenly smiled in a friendly manner, "The skin care products that Li'er just mentioned, are they the ones you gave her?"
She blinked her eyes curiously. Her figure was thin, yet inexplicably pitiful.
Jiang Wan felt uncomfortable again, but the other party did not do anything out of line, nor did he even say anything out of line.
She nodded slightly, "Yes, if Miss Ruhua also wants it, you can go to Wansi Pavilion to buy it."
"good."
Jiang Ruhua still smiled gently, as if she couldn't see that Song Jiuyuan had a special feeling for Jiang Wan.
"Wanwan, since you are here, why don't you stay and have dinner with us?"
Mrs. Song was much older after all, and women were more sensitive and she sensed something was wrong.
Although she didn't want to force Jiang Wan, she also didn't want others to get there first.
"Yes, Sister Wanwan, you haven't eaten here for a long time. Can I ask the kitchen to make your favorite pork elbow?"
Song Jiuli was a carefree person and was unaware of Jiang Ruhua's little thoughts.
Jiang Ru's smile froze again, but she quickly adjusted her mood and said angrily:
"Li'er, you are so biased that you don't even remember what I like to eat."
Once upon a time, the Song family's eyes would always be on her.
But now they are all thinking about Jiang Wan, which makes her feel really uncomfortable.
Especially when she thought about the fact that Jiang Wan had once been married to Brother Yuan, she felt very upset.
"Don't worry, Sister Ruhua, I haven't forgotten."
Song Jiuli smiled brightly, "I have already asked someone to prepare the chicken wings you like."
"Li'er, you are so nice."
Jiang Ruhua hugged Song Jiuli's arms and acted coquettishly, showing her closeness to the Song family all the time.
Even Song Jiuchi couldn't help but tease Song Jiuli, "Look, this is what a girl should be like.
You are usually careless, you should learn more from Sister Ruhua."
"Go, go, what do you want?"
Song Jiuli rolled her eyes at Song Jiuchi and said, "We are just chatting with sisters, so don't interfere."
"You think I want to control you? I'm just afraid that you will lead Sister Ruhua astray."
Song Jiuchi snorted and muttered, "Only Qi Chu can be so similar to you!"
At this time, he still remembered Qi Chu. Jiang Wan shook his head and laughed.
Jiang Wan didn't want to stay any longer, but leaving now would make her seem like a coward, so she stayed.
In the restaurant, everyone tacitly left the seat next to Song Jiuyuan for Jiang Wan. Jiang Ruhua's eyelids twitched but she didn't say anything.
"Wanwan, you haven't been here for a long time. Eat more today."
Madam Song sat on the other side of Jiang Wan and considerately picked up her favorite dishes for her.
Song Jiuyuan served the food to Jiang Wan in silence, and Jiang Ru's smile on the screen was almost gone.
"Sister Ruhua, come and try your favorite chicken wings."
Song Jiuli was heartless and did not realize the depression in Jiang Ruhua's heart.
After a few years, the Song family...seemed to have no place for her.
"Actually... I can eat some greasy food now. Pork elbow is not bad either."
Jiang Ruhua's eyes fell on the plate of pork elbows in front of Jiang Wan. Song Jiuli asked in surprise:
"But there are a lot of chilies in the elbow. Sister Ruhua, don't you not tolerate spicy food?"
Jiang Ruhua pursed her lips gently, "I can give it a try."
As she spoke, her beautiful eyes fell on Song Jiuyuan's face, and then quickly moved away, as if she was not trying the elbow, but Song Jiuyuan.
