Chapter 53: Night Talk (2)
"Yuelan, what's going on with you and Han Qing?" Mu Yan's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he stared at Jiang Yuelan tightly.
Jiang Yuelan was frightened when she saw Mu Yan's eyes, her face turned white, her lips were closed, and her throat tightened for a while.
She had never mentioned Han Qing's name in front of Mu Yan, how did Mu Yan know?
Could it be that there was something strange on the gourd that Han Qing gave her?
Han Qing said, her name is engraved on the gourd, it stands to reason that there should be nothing weird......
Jiang Yuelan is an ordinary little girl, Jiang De and Niu don't know a few big characters, so she can't read Ding, and she doesn't know what words are engraved on the gourd.
"Big sister...... I ......" Jiang Yuelan hesitated, her eyes kept dodging.
What would she do if her little bit of caution was known?
Jiang Yuelan felt both scared and ashamed.
A girl should be reserved, but also self-love, how can she like a man indiscriminately?
Mu Yan's expression was too strict just now, she saw Jiang Yuelan scared like this, and she was a little soft-hearted for a while, so she took Jiang Yuelan's trembling hand and comforted her gently, "Yuelan, don't be nervous, don't be afraid, you are still young, if you do something wrong, you still have a chance to change it, right?" ”
Jiang Yuelan felt the temperature of Mu Yan's palm, and finally slowly calmed down, and was no longer so afraid.
"Sister...... I ......" she asked again and again with red eyes, and it took a long time for her to ask, "you...... How did you know about Han Gongzi? ”
Mu Yan pulled Jiang Yuelan to sit under the lamp, and at the same time handed the gourd to Jiang Yuelan, she pointed to the two lines of small words on it and whispered, "Do you know what this means?" ”
Jiang Yuelan shook her head blankly, "I don't know, sister, you know, I can't read." ”
She rubbed her hands together.
Mu Yan was a little distressed.
Girls who are illiterate are actually very sad, they don't know anything, they don't understand anything, and sometimes they are sold and even have to help each other count the money.
She reached out and touched Jiang Yuelan's hair, and said softly, "It's okay, if you have the opportunity in the future, I will teach you to read and write." ”
Jiang Yuelan's eyes were full of surprise, and she happily rested her head on Mu Yan's shoulder.
Mu Yan pointed to the two lines of small characters on the gourd and said, "This reads 'Acacia plum blossom hair overnight, suddenly in front of the window and suspected to be Qing', do you know what this means?" ”
Jiang Yuelan shook her head blankly again, but after a while, she blushed again and whispered, "It seems to be ...... It seems to mean lovesickness? ”
Jiang Yuelan's expression was obvious, she could hear that it was lovesick, and she didn't reject it, that is to say, she already liked Han Qing.
Mu Yan secretly took a cool breath.
Once a girl is tempted, sometimes she will ignore it.
Mu Yan pinched the small gourd, and pointed to the name of the person under the poem and said, "The word Han Qing is written on it, do you know?" ”
Jiang Yuelan was stunned and hesitated, "Didn't Gongzi Han say that it was written in my name?" ”
Mu Yan shook his head, "It's his name." At the same time, she was very glad to tell Jiang Yuelan, "It's a shame that this gourd is in my hands, if others see it, they will definitely think that you and Han Qing have ......."
She didn't say anything further, she believed that Jiang Yuelan understood.
This Han Qing really has a hand......
Jiang Yuelan's eyes were a little hurt, and she drooped her eyelids and didn't speak for a long time.
She trusted Han Qing so much that she dared to accept it because she thought it was her name engraved on it, but she didn't expect him to lie to her.
She clasped the corner of the kang table with one hand.
Mu Yan felt a little sorry for her, put one hand around her shoulder and asked in a whisper, "Do you like Han Qing?" ”
At this moment, Jiang Yuelan also felt that there was nothing to hide, frowned and nodded lightly, and then bit her lip and said aggrievedly, "He said that it was my name engraved on it, and I accepted it." ”
Mu Yan patted Jiang Yuelan's shoulder lightly, and his tone was very strict, and said, "He shouldn't lie to you about this kind of thing, if this gourd falls into the hands of others, what will they think of you?" You're still young, you don't know how terrible people are, and you don't know how powerful it is for three people to become tigers......"
If some words are spread too much, it will ruin a girl's life.
When Jiang Yuelan heard this, she lay on Mu Yan aggrievedly and cried, "I...... I thought he was genuinely good to me, and when I went to deliver tea, he ...... He said it would be good for me......"
Mu Yan can understand this kind of pain.
In his previous life, he had experienced such pain, and tried to make himself fall in love with Mu Chaoyang, Mu Chaoyang also said that he would be good to her for a lifetime, but in the end? He didn't put his arms around another woman and forced her to leave the court.
Therefore, she would rather believe that there are ghosts in this world, and she is not willing to believe in the man's broken mouth anymore.
Seeing Jiang Yuelan crying like this, Mu Yan was also very distressed, and comforted over and over again, "It's okay, you're still young, and you don't understand some things very well, and you'll understand when you're older." By the way, he reminded, "Although I don't know what Han Qing is like, but a man who can cheat on girls is definitely not worth entrusting for life, he lied to you once today, and he is likely to lie to you a second time in the future, a lifetime is so long, you can't live in a lie all the time, right?" ”
That's all she can do for Jiang Yuelan.
As for whether Jiang Yuelan will listen to her persuasion, it depends on Jiang Yuelan's creation.
Jiang Yuelan cried for most of the night before falling asleep, and deliberately found a hidden place to hide the gourd before going to bed......
Mu Yan also felt tired, she slept very deeply this night, and she didn't wake up until the beginning of the morning.
When she got up, Jiang Yuelan had already left, and when Taohong was serving her and dressing, she whispered to her, "Miss Yuelan went out early, and she seemed to be holding something in her hand, I don't know what it is." ”
Did you go to Han Qing?
Mu Yan's eyes sank, and he didn't say anything else.
Taohong whispered to her again, "Uncle Jiang has already gone to the teahouse to open in the morning." ”
"Didn't gamble?" Mu Yan tied the button and asked casually.
Peach shook her head, "No, my aunt looks happy." ”
Mu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, but she also knew that it was impossible to get Jiang De to quit gambling.
After gambling for so many years, it has become a habit, and it is impossible to eradicate it.
She packed up and went to Niu's room.
Niu had already made breakfast, and when he saw her get up, he quickly greeted her with a smile, took her hand and said, "Da Nizi, your father and your eldest brother have gone to the teahouse, and your father said that he will not gamble in the future." ”
"Really?" Mu Yan's expression was indifferent, she didn't have much hope for her father.
Eyes swept to the table, boiled glutinous red dates and millet porridge, two plates of small pickles, and a plate of steamed buns.
Niu said with a smile, "You have been here so many times, and my mother has never steamed buns for you, you can taste your mother's craftsmanship." ”
Niu's attitude suddenly turned around, and he couldn't be affectionate to Mu Yan all of a sudden, and even took Mu Yan's hand and sat down, and personally sandwiched a bun and served porridge for Mu Yan.
