Chapter 23 Wanxia Climbs into Bed
Song Lao San met his daughter's gaze and said nothing, but in his heart he felt resentful of what Song Ying had just said. Those words were too harsh. How could she say that to her own daughter?
When he was not around in the past, were Xiaoci and his wife also treated so unfairly?
He couldn't help but think deeply about it, and the more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He felt as if some of the things he had believed in before were shaken.
Song Lao Er was keenly aware of this and emphasized his tone, "Song Ying, you are the elder sister. You shouldn't say such things about your younger sister. Apologize."
"Dad! You want me to apologize to her?"
Song Ying couldn't believe it.
Song Laosan felt a little comforted. It seemed that although the younger generation was ignorant, his elder brother still knew the importance of things.
"Your third uncle works hard outside from dawn to dusk, all for the Song family. It's really inappropriate for you to say that about Song Ci. Apologize quickly."
Song Lao Er glanced at his daughter with a fierce look. Song Ying saw his determination and her eyes turned red.
"I...I...Third sister, I was just talking nonsense just now, don't take it seriously." Song Ying's eyes were filled with tears of grievance and she gritted her teeth.
Song Rouxi handed her a handkerchief and wiped her tears. "Third sister, we are all sisters. Second sister was just joking with you. You won't blame me, will you?"
Song Ci smiled. Why was there always someone who forgave for her?
"Big sister, a joke is only a joke if both parties find it funny. Did you see me laughing just now?"
Song Rouxi was choked and said in a wronged tone, "Third sister may have been depressed before, but she has always been gentle. Why is she so unkind now?"
"I was called uneducated, but I still acted sensibly. It's like someone shitting on my head and I have to thank them."
"Third sister! How can you be so vulgar?" Song Rouxi sounded sharp, as if she was greatly offended.
"Just shut up! I can't hurt you by saying something to you, so why are you still holding on to me? I don't think you were like this before. You're sick, like you've been possessed by an evil spirit! What did Rouxi and Yingying say about you that was wrong? Why do you have to pick on them?"
Old Mrs. Song hugged Song Rouxi and Song Ying, her eyes full of heartache.
"Sure enough, grandma only has eyes for my eldest and second sisters."
Old Lady Song's hands, which were trying to comfort the two of them, froze for a moment. "Nonsense!"
These words were like a good medicine. Song Rouxi and Song Ying no longer looked aggrieved, and Old Lady Song never scolded Song Ci again.
The whole family sat together for dinner.
The Song family has not yet made a fortune, so naturally they don't care about the rules of the wealthy families. They are all talking and laughing at the table.
Old Mrs. Song kept putting food into Song Rouxi's bowl, and both the first and second wives were filled with joy.
On the other hand, in the third house, the third Song watched silently as the eldest and second Song talked and laughed, discussing poetry and songs. Qiao Xianglan was even more timid, carefully picking up the dishes in front of her that she didn't like. Song Ci, because of the sudden change in front of him, found the food tasteless.
Only when the family returned to the third room did they smile again.
Song Ci closed the door and carefully recalled what happened in his previous life.
All I can say is, no matter how much you plan, nothing can compare to God's will. It seems that the acquaintance between Song Rouxi and the prince was destined.
She can't change.
But if you think about it carefully, haven't many things in this life changed because of her?
Wanxia had been plotting against her mother but failed. Zhang Baiwan's silver and Pei Ji's bracelet, all of these reminded her that fate might not be unchangeable.
Your destiny is in your own hands.
A bad thing, followed by a good thing.
Because there are so many refugees around, although the situation has been brought under control, it is still extremely dangerous, so Song Laosan temporarily decided to stay in Beijing and not go out.
Perhaps because they were afraid that something might happen to their wallets, this time, neither Old Lady Song nor the first and second wives objected.
After all, only if Song Lao San is alive can he better provide a steady stream of money to the Song family.
Inside the big house.
"Tell me in detail how you got to know the prince."
Li Yao sat down next to his daughter and looked at her shy face with satisfaction in his eyes.
"Mom, you are so straightforward, how can I explain it..." Song Rouxi's cheeks turned red when she was asked.
"There are only you and me, mother and daughter, here. Is there anything you can't tell your mother?"
Song Rouxi thought about it and told him everything that happened that day.
"So, you knew from the beginning that the man was the prince?"
"Well, Miss Lian from the county magistrate's household, whom I met earlier, said that the Crown Prince liked dark clothes the most and wore a jade pendant with a dragon pattern bestowed by the Emperor. When I saw it that day, I assumed it was the Crown Prince, so I deliberately took the opportunity to fall down in front of him..."
"You haven't been discovered, have you?" Li Yao felt nervous. She was an experienced person and knew men best.
It would be fine if it was a happy accident, but once people find out that you were plotting against it, the more beautiful it was at the beginning, the more disgusting it will be afterwards.
Especially the prince, who grew up in the deep palace and hates being plotted against.
"Mom, don't worry, he doesn't know. He's very gentle... and he even sent someone to bring me back safely."
Song Rouxi's face was gentle, but when she thought of the prince's handsome appearance and calm and noble demeanor, her heart was in turmoil and her heart was beating fast.
Such an outstanding man is the future husband she has always dreamed of. She will definitely grab him.
Li Yao saw through his daughter's thoughts at a glance. Besides being worried, he was also more excited.
This is the crown prince! The future heir apparent!
If her daughter could really climb up the big tree of the prince, she could rest assured.
Being the Crown Princess’ mother, how glorious and honorable!
..........
For half a month, Wanxia was forced to run around in circles and was miserable.
Song Ci had been asking Wanxiang to keep an eye on Wanxia. In the middle of the night, she quietly pushed open the door and walked in, lowering her voice, "Miss, Wanxia has returned from the main room. I'll keep an eye on her. She's definitely up to something bad again."
Song Ci put down the book in her hand, her eyes indifferent, "Keep a close eye on her. If she makes any unusual movements, tell me."
Wanxia stayed in the third room and was always restless, so it was better to deal with her as soon as possible.
I thought that after getting the indenture, the other party would at least be afraid of me, but I didn't expect that Wanxia would still be determined.
That’s perfect, let’s deal with them together.
Wanxia walked into Song Laosan's room carrying tea. Song Laosan was scribbling on the account book with a frown on his face. He didn't look at who the visitor was, but just continued to look at the account book in his hand.
Wanxia: "Third Master, be careful not to hurt your eyes. Drink some tea and take a rest."
"Just let it go."
Song Laosan didn't look up and continued to look at the account book in his hand.
Wanxia curled the corners of her mouth and looked straight at Song Laosan under the dim candlelight.
Although he is not young, his appearance is the most outstanding among the three Song brothers.
