Chapter 458 Do you forgive him?
Song Jiuchi's voice came over with the wind, "Not familiar.
But she is a friend of my sister-in-law, and I saved her purely for my sister-in-law’s sake.”
For some reason, when Qi Chu heard this, his eyes became sore and a tear fell on the back of his hand.
Jiang Wan pretended not to see anything and gently wiped her hair and the back of her hands.
"Chu Chu, we need to make some ginger tea when we get home to avoid getting sick."
"Um."
Qi Chu forced a smile at Jiang Wan, took the towel from her hand and wiped his hair.
Cheng Jin and Song Jiuyuan were still carrying their bodies on their backs. Fortunately, the lake was not big, so they soon reached the shore.
Qiu Niang, who had just seen the commotion, hurriedly asked Qingshan to drive the carriage to the shore.
"Miss, Miss Qi."
"I'm going back with Chuchu first. We can't let her get sick."
Jiang Wan separated from Song Jiuyuan and Cheng Jin and took Qi Chu into the carriage.
The carriage blocked the strange view from outside, and Qi Chu couldn't help crying.
"Sister Jiang, I seem...very sad."
"good."
Jiang Wan held Qi Chu in her arms and said, "Just now I wanted to go down and save you.
But since you can swim, you didn't come down. But Song Jiuchi's brain couldn't keep up with his actions. He must have been very worried about you at that time."
"Sister Jiang."
Qi Chu sniffed and said sadly, "The sword you gave me just now has also fallen down."
"I know. I'll talk to the prince later and ask him to send people to salvage the fish."
Jiang Wan knew why she was sad, but she didn't expose her little thoughts.
The carriage soon arrived at the Jiang Mansion, and Qiu Niang and Qiu Yan quickly prepared hot water.
She also prepared new clothes for Qi Chu, and Jiang Wan went to the kitchen to make ginger soup herself.
As soon as the ginger soup was brought to the front hall, Song Jiuchi came hurriedly.
"Sister Wanwan, where is Chuchu?"
"I'm washing up."
Jiang Wan's face turned cold, "Women can't catch a cold easily, I'll let her take a bath."
Her eyes fell on Song Jiuchi. He had probably changed his clothes, but his hair was still wet.
"Qingshan, go get a handkerchief and wipe the Second Young Master."
Jiang Wan poured a bowl of ginger soup and pushed it in front of Song Jiuchi, "Drink it."
After all, he is Song Jiuyuan's younger brother, so Jiang Wan did not turn her head away for Song Jiuyuan's sake.
Song Jiuchi took the ginger soup and drank it in one gulp, then sat there waiting like a statue.
Don't speak either.
Jiang Wan was too lazy to care about him. Qi Chu, who had just finished washing, walked in. When she saw Song Jiuchi, she turned around and was about to leave.
"Chu Chu, I can explain."
"What do you want to explain to me?"
Qi Chu thought about it and decided not to leave. She sat next to Jiang Wan.
"Sister Jiang, is this the ginger soup you made for me? Thank you."
She smiled sweetly at Jiang Wan and started drinking the ginger soup in small sips.
Jiang Wan, who was scooping ginger soup, paused slightly. Could she say that it was the soup that Song Jiuchi had just drunk?
No way, otherwise Chu Chu will definitely explode now.
"What's wrong?"
Qi Chu looked up blankly and met Song Jiuchi's blushing face.
"Chu Chu..., that's what I drank."
Click...
The spoon in Qi Chu's hand fell into the bowl. She made a few "pooh" sounds and said deliberately:
"unlucky."
"Chu Chu, this is for you."
Jiang Wan filled another bowl for Qi Chu and pushed it in front of her. Song Jiuchi rubbed his hands hesitantly.
"Sister Wanwan, can you go out for a while? I have something I want to talk to Chuchu alone."
Jiang Wan agreed subconsciously, "But..."
"Need not."
Qi Chu said directly: “Sister Jiang and I have a good relationship, there is nothing she can’t listen to.
Just say what you want to say, and then get out of here!"
"Are you sure?"
Song Jiuchi looked at Qi Chu with burning eyes, and said these three words almost with gritting his teeth.
Jiang Wan stood up tactfully, "Chu Chu, you guys can chat slowly, I just happen to have something to do."
Jiang Wan made a bad choice as this light bulb.
Upon hearing this, Qi Chu didn't want to force Jiang Wan anymore, so he just turned his head away and ignored Song Jiuchi.
After leaving the front hall, Qiu Niang at the side couldn't help but ask Jiang Wan out of curiosity.
"Miss, does the Second Master like Miss Qi?"
"You just noticed that?"
Jiang Wan couldn't help but chuckled and said, "Everyone knows what he is thinking, except Chuchu."
"I'm afraid the Second Young Master can't help himself this time."
Qiu Niang had a teasing expression on her face. The master and servant sat in the garden for a while, and then they saw Qi Chu trotting out from the front hall with a flushed face.
Seeing Jiang Wan, he rushed to her without a moment's delay.
Song Jiuchi glanced at them from a distance, but didn't come over. He just waved his hand and left.
After the others walked away, Jiang Wan teased Qi Chu sarcastically.
"Chu Chu, why is your face so red?"
"Sister Jiang."
Qi Chu patted her pink cheeks, "Song Jiuchi just wanted to explain to me that he didn't break the appointment on purpose."
"So you forgive him?"
Jiang Wan had an expression that said, "As expected," and Qi Chu felt even more embarrassed.
But she didn’t want to hide it from Jiang Wan, “I can’t say I’ve forgiven you, I just don’t bear a grudge.
After all, he saved me, and besides, he did it for our Jiuzhou."
"For Jiuzhou?"
Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows. This answer surprised her a little.
Qi Chu lowered his voice and said, "Song Jiuchi accidentally discovered that Lian Qiao and her maid did not speak the Dafeng dialect.
Maybe it was the Northern Dynasty language, he was worried that the other party was coming to target the prince, so he wanted to test the waters."
Jiang Wan subconsciously thought of what Song Qing and Madam Song had said. Now the Northern Dynasty was eyeing Jiuzhou covetously.
It's really possible.
"If you put it that way, it makes sense."
Jiang Wan stroked her chin and thought carefully, "For Jiuzhou and the prince, Song Jiuchi made great sacrifices, and even had to sacrifice his looks, alas."
"Sister Jiang, don't say that about him."
Qi Chu's eyes were serious, "Song Jiuchi is also doing this for Jiuzhou's own good, and Lian Qiao is an otaku and she doesn't have to sell herself.
He must be very capable. Maybe even Hongxiu Pavilion is a secret network of the Northern Dynasty."
Her words made Jiang Wan look more serious, "I understand, this kind of thing really can't be taken lightly.
Song Jiuchi is sensible, and the prince will handle it. It seems that we almost messed up Song Jiuchi's plan today."
Qi Chu felt a little annoyed when talking about this, and she sighed.
"If I knew the truth, I wouldn't have made such a fuss, and the sword you gave me wouldn't have been lost."
"I don't blame you."
Jiang Wan rubbed her hair and said, "If you don't have that sword anymore, I can give it to you again."
"That was the first time Sister Jiang gave it to me."
Qi Chu wanted to go out to find the sword, and Jiang Wan couldn't stop him. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the lake, he saw a lot of people gathered by the lake.
And Song Jiuyuan and Cheng Jin were actually there too, which made Jiang Wan a little confused.
"You haven't gone back yet?"
"I've been back."
Song Jiuyuan held his forehead helplessly, "Song Jiuchi that kid insisted on going into the water to find the hairpin for someone else.
There are so many people watching, I'm worried something might happen to him."
Jiang Wan then noticed that the Hongxiu Pavilion's boat was still in the middle of the lake, and Lian Qiao was standing by the lake looking over there.
