Chapter 203: Indifference
This sentence was as cold as a cold night in winter, and Pearl couldn't help but tremble, and her mind seemed empty.
A cool breeze blew over, and she suddenly came back to her senses, and once again saw the red and willow green garden in front of her. And Jiang Yongjun didn't know when he had walked away.
Pearl felt sad for a while, and stiffly dragged her steps to follow, but Jiang Yongjun didn't seem to have the heart to take care of her anymore, leaving her far behind.
When the pearl dragged his steps to the peach blossom forest, Jiang Yongjun was nowhere to be seen, and the little maid on the side saw that the pearl was depressed, so she stepped forward and said: "The second master said that these peach blossom buds are enough, do you still want to pick them?"
Pearl suddenly opened her eyes wide, and only then did she know that Jiang Yongjun had left.
He shook his head at the little maid, didn't say anything more, and silently turned around and walked back. Just took a mechanical step forward, but the word "child" suddenly came to her ears, which made her ignorant mind gradually clear.
Following the sound, I looked into the courtyard and saw two mothers-in-law walking out with flower pots, talking without a word as they walked.
"You still don't believe it, I've been in Jiangfu for so many years, I don't know what's going on! If you want to say that you have reached the sky in one step, it is still Aunt He who is next to the old lady, do you know this? One of the mothers-in-law spoke proudly.
"Why don't you know? Don't forget that I have also been in Jiangfu for a long time, and I am also clear about Aunt He's affairs, back then, the old lady liked her very much. The other woman did not dare to speak weakly.
"At that time, Aunt He was bought with me, and she suffered a lot under my hands!" Not to be outdone, the woman spoke triumphantly again.
"Then she is a good means, from an inconspicuous little maid to the old lady's room. Later, he climbed to the position of his aunt. Even the old lady back then had to be a little jealous. Tsk......"
The two mothers-in-law walked farther and farther, and their voices gradually became quieter, and Pearl didn't listen to what was said later.
All she could think of was her child, auntie......
She clenched her teeth, her face showing determination. She must have a child!
That's the only way. to be able to get out of the current predicament. She doesn't want to be trampled under her all her life, bullied at will, she is as beautiful as a flower, and she is young......
If she can really win a man in one fell swoop, the old lady's attitude towards her will definitely be reversed.
At that time, it was the arrival of her real good days!
After sending the second wife back to the room, Su Xue walked back to the room with Qianrou on a stroll.
Qianrou was always silent, and she couldn't see much emotion on her face.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." There was silence for a long time. Su Xue spoke.
Qianrou raised her face, and there seemed to be tears in her eyes.
When I see a pearl. For a moment, she really thought Pearl was going to do something. She just stared at her in a daze, and her cold eyes almost soaked every bone in her......
Su Xue looked at Qianrou, lowered her face again, gently rubbed the tea bowl with her fingers, and said, "What's more, she doesn't have the time to spend her mind on you now."
Qianrou furrowed her eyebrows suspiciously, trying to see something on Su Xue's face, but she heard the curtain behind her make a shaking sound.
Miaomeng hurriedly walked in, looked at Qianrou, and turned to look at Su Xue again.
In the end, he still dragged his steps to Su Xue's side and whispered: "Miss, don't worry, the little one has already greeted the mother-in-law over there......"
Miao Meng wanted to continue to say something, but Su Xue waved her hand in time: "Okay, remember to take care of the fire on the stove."
Miaomeng nodded knowingly, bowed and retreated.
Qianrou looked at Miaomeng's figure suspiciously, and looked back at Su Xue, but after all, she forcibly suppressed the doubts in her heart and lowered her head.
Mother Qin sent the second lady back to the room, served the second wife to take off her coat, and said with some confusion: "This third young lady, she suddenly said something like that today, and I don't understand what she thinks......
Even Mother Qin could see that the old lady was still worried about the matter between Pearl and Second Master Jiang, if a child suddenly came out at such a time, what would the old lady think?
Not to mention the old lady, even the eldest lady, I'm afraid I won't be happy.
The second wife sat lazily in front of the mirror, stroked Yun Yun's sideburns, and smiled coldly: "This Jiang Suxue has opened her mind, and sometimes it may not be a good thing."
Although she thought about it for a long time, she didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in Su Xue's gourd, but just by the fact that it was clearly in front of her, it could be seen that now she Jiang Suxue was definitely not an easy master to provoke. The purpose of this incident was obviously aimed at Pearl, which was not necessarily a good thing for her.
"The third lady has indeed become smarter, but when she says that, isn't she helping Pearl?" Mother Qin looked at the second wife in front of her with some puzzlement, she also knew very well that in such a deep house, the maid in the room did ascend to the sky in the name of the child.
"How could it be that you're helping her? Even if that cheap hoof has a stomach, does the old lady recognize it or not? What's more, would Fang Lian let such a woman have an extra layer of relationship with their family? The big lady didn't just raise her voice.
Dafang has been proud of the spring breeze recently, and even if Fang Lian is stupid, she naturally understands that she shouldn't lift a stone to shoot herself in the foot at this time.
Listening to the words of the second wife, Mother Qin couldn't help but be slightly shocked in her heart, could it be that this third lady just wanted to put the pearl in an embarrassing place, but just like this, it wouldn't be of much benefit to her?
"She didn't just mention it casually!" The more Mother Qin thought about it, the more she couldn't understand it, if she wanted to say that this third lady suddenly had such a deep thought, she really didn't believe it.
"I hope she's just a joke." The second wife looked at the candle flame in front of her, and the smile on the corner of her mouth gradually deepened.
The night was already dark, and Pearl slowly walked to the door of Jiang Yongjun's study with a small cup of ginseng soup.
has been in contact with Jiang Yongjun for so long, and she still knows him somewhat. He's always been so hypocritical, others don't know, isn't she clear?
Pushing open the door and seeing that Jiang Yongjun was reading a book, Pearl gently put the soup in his hand on the table, stood quietly on one side, and stirred the core from time to time.
Jiang Yongjun didn't notice the movement around him from time to time, and after visiting the garden, Pearl's words also reminded him at the same time. Naturally, he knew what was waiting in his room at night, so he thought he had something to do, but he didn't expect Pearl to be really shameless, and he came to the study to find her.
"Second master, are you tired of watching it for so long? The ginseng soup boiled by the slave maid herself, the second master will take a sip and rest too, right? Pearl looked at Jiang Yongjun beside him and sighed softly before he spoke empathetically on the side.
"Just leave it alone." Jiang Yongjun spit out these words lukewarmly.
"Second master, it's so late, it's better for the slave to wait for the second master to rest......" After hesitating for a long time, Pearl finally said the words that were held in her heart, she didn't believe it, this time Jiang Yongjun could refuse her.
Jiang Yongjun closed the book, raised his head and looked at the pearl leisurely, staring at the pearl's whole body.
"If there is anything in the future, I will call Bi'er to call you." After speaking, he reached out and knocked on the table, still repeating the sentence, "Just let it go." ”
"Second master, you say...... What the? Pearl's voice trembled a little, she didn't believe that at this time, Jiang Yongjun actually said such a sentence to her again......
I still remember a long time ago, when she was still working as a maid by the second wife's side, the second master said to her, if there is anything in the future, I will ask Chi Mo to call you.
At that time, she heard this, not to mention how happy she was in her heart! But now, she is already his maid, but he still said this to her, and she couldn't help but feel extremely cold in her heart.
Pearl couldn't hold back any longer, and tears fell down her eyes. I couldn't stop cursing in my heart.
She always thought that she had been his maid, and the qiē he promised to give her would be fulfilled little by little. It's just that now it seems that she thinks too little, and Jiang Yongjun's indifferent appearance has wiped out all her extravagant expectations.
The eldest lady was still busy setting up the stage and arranging the colorful silk, and Pearl went to help at the behest of Jiang Yongjun.
The servants and craftsmen who set up the stage knocked on the ding-dong, and her mind became even more confused, and she seemed to be in a trance all day.
After serving the eldest lady for dinner, Pearl stared at Jiang Yongjun's room again, she thought that she would muster up the courage to go in and talk to Jiang Yongjun again, she didn't believe that he was really so ruthless.
But at this moment, Jiang Yongjun's room that was originally lit suddenly dimmed, and Pearl's heart kept sinking......
After a while, the little maid Bi'er came out lightly, closed the door, lowered her head and walked out with a smile softly.
I don't know if it's because the lantern is a little dark because she didn't mention it, or because Bi'er didn't know what she was happy about, she didn't find the pearl standing outside the room.
But the pearl seemed to freeze, and froze in place.
Bi'er bumped into it unsuspectingly, and immediately let out a low cry of pain.
Raising her eyes, Bi'er's face was already displeased, but after seeing clearly that the person in front of her was Pearl, she quickly lowered her face and took a step back respectfully.
"Second master......" Pearl muttered.
"The second master has already rested, is there something wrong with Sister Pearl?" Bi'er heard that Pearl was here to find the second master, and raised her head again and said with a smile.
For some reason, Pearl looked at Bi'er's face through the night, and always felt that Bi'er's every look was laughing at her!
"Sister Pearl?" Bi'er was a little frightened by Pearl's staring, and was about to ask something, but Pearl turned around and covered her mouth and ran away.
But in the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the night.
Bi'er frowned in confusion and froze in place. (To be continued......)
