Chapter 139: Song Li's wedding
The news that Meng Yidi was pregnant was very sealed. Even so, Ah Jin knew it right away.
"What are you going to do next?" Liuli and Ah Jin sat in the most secluded private room in the Yunlai Inn, drinking tea and chatting, stealing half a day's leisure.
"Don't do anything, send this news back to the Tongtian Pavilion. It's just that...... Tell Ah Yin, if someone wants to buy this news, find a way to push it. Ah Jin thought about it for a long time, and finally made this decision.
Liuli Wan'er smiled and shook her head helplessly, "Everyone said that Liang Jin, the eldest lady of Tongtian Pavilion, has a heart as cold and hard as a stone, don't provoke it." In my opinion, you are clearly a bodhisattva's heart, and you are also a mud bodhisattva. ”
"You want to say that I am a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect myself, to put it bluntly, it is such a big bend," Ah Jin glanced at Liuli, and after drinking the cup of tea, she took out an invitation from her sleeve and handed it to Liuli, "Take a look." ”
Liuli was stunned for a moment, took it with both hands and took a look. His face suddenly turned pale, and then returned to normal. She looked up and saw Ah Jin looking at her teasingly, so she put the post aside, "Are you trying to tease me?" ”
"Wronged. It is indeed the eldest girl of their Luo family who married the Song family. The reason why I got a post for you is because I think Lorten might come to the wedding party. But it's up to you whether you want to see him or not. ”
Speaking of this, the light in Liuli's eyes became a little dim, "I definitely want to go, I want to see how his body ......"
"What?" Liuli's voice suddenly became extremely small, and Ah Jin didn't understand, so he subconsciously asked.
"It's fine. Then I won't return this post, so I'll leave it here. Liuli smiled brightly, and when she raised her eyes again, even the melancholy under her eyes was carefully hidden by her.
Ah Jin lowered her eyes and thought, since she insisted on doing so, she pretended never to notice.
The two chatted for a while, and only reluctantly parted when it was time for lunch. As soon as Ah Jin returned home in the carriage, he saw that the servants in the Song Mansion began to be busy inside and out again.
Ah Jin took Ah Zhen to avoid it carefully, and there was nothing wrong along the way. As soon as he stepped into his own small world, he saw Song Wenyu sitting in the room reading, "You came back so early today?" ”
"Well, the court has been calm these days. It's nothing," Song Wenyu replied, watching Ah Jin sit beside him, "Went to inspect his mother's property again?" ”
"Staying at home won't help much anyway," Ah Jin pursed his lips, supported his chin with one hand, and stretched out his hand to casually flip through a few pages of the book that Song Wenyu was reading, "It's better to go out and take a look." By the way, I also chose a gift for your sister to come out of the cabinet. ”
Ah Jin's answer was unexpected by Song Wenyu. He had a vague smile on his lips, and his eyes looked at Ah Jin gently, "I originally thought that you had made up your mind that you would not show up at Li'er's wedding. ”
"Then why bother. If I hadn't shown up, the idle ladies and daughters in the inner city wouldn't know how to arrange the relationship between our sisters-in-law in private. Ah Jin pursed her lips, she only felt physically and mentally exhausted for this kind of life that always had to be wary of other people's verbal criticism, "Although my relationship with Song Li is not very good, this superficial effort still needs to be done." I'm afraid...... I'm taking a step back here, but I don't necessarily appreciate it there. ”
"That's not hers." Song Wenyu said such a sentence lightly, and then did not say anything else.
Ah Jin had his words, and her heart was more confident, she folded her hands on the small table between the two, and brought her upper body closer, "That...... If my mother-in-law had asked me to come and help, would I have been able to do it? ”
Song Wenyu looked at Ah Jin's cunning appearance, stretched out his hand and gently scratched her nose, "You have to inch in." ”
Ah Jin knew that this was an agreement.
"But I don't think my mother-in-law will come to me." Ah Jin sat back on the round stool, played with the strand of hair hanging down on his chest with one hand, and said in a brisk tone.
Song Wenyu didn't make a sound, just looked at the book in a daze. Seeing that he was not moving, Ah Jin turned his head and saw him putting on such a contemplative look, so he asked softly, "What are you worried about?" ”
Song Wenyu was stunned for a moment, "I'm ...... I'm a little worried about Li'er. ”
Ah Jin thought to himself, your Song family just stuffed that willful and domineering eldest lady to Luo Tingchun, who was not in the right household, naturally he had to worry, but he didn't say this idea directly.
"Then how is Song Li's performance now?" Ah Jin pursed his lips and asked as he spoke.
Song Wenyu frowned, thought for a long time, and then said: "She didn't mess around like before." My mother was very happy about it, but I ......"
"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon?"
"Hmm." Song Wenyu bowed slightly, "I went to see her a few days ago, and she just sat there in peace, not moving, even the grandmother at home fiddling with the bride's wedding dress and hair accessories on her, she never reacted...... That look made me feel a little uneasy. ”
Ah Jin looked away, imagined Song Li's appearance of not crying or making trouble, nodded thoughtfully, and said, "It's a little panicked." Didn't my mother-in-law see her like this? ”
"Naturally, I saw it. But the arrow is on the string, and it has to be sent. She had no choice but to think that Song Li had figured it out. ”
Ah Jin listened to Song Wenyu's answer and was a little speechless. After a while, Song Wenyu sighed again and said, "I hope I think too much." ”
……
On the day Song Li got married, before the sky was bright, all the women in the Song Mansion who could speak had already gathered in Song Li's boudoir. Ah Jin took Ah Zhen to sit in the outhouse and watched Song Yu and Zhuang Xiaomeng busy around Song Li, and Song Li sat there quietly like a wooden man, not crying or making trouble, and her calm appearance made people feel panicked.
"Girl, the eyes of the slave and maid looking at the eldest girl of the Song family are really scary." Ah Zhen lowered her head and couldn't help but whisper to Ah Jin: "Let's find an excuse to leave first, I always feel that she is going to do something that is not good for you, girl." ”
Ah Jin listened to her words and turned his head to look at Song Li, just in time to meet the terrifying gaze. It's a pity that she is not an ordinary woman and is not intimidated. She smiled generously at Song Li, and then withdrew her gaze, "Her eyes are not as simple as scary, they are clearly murderous to me." ”
After Ah Jin finished speaking, he took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and put the tea bowl aside. While the master and servant were talking, Song Yu picked up the bead curtain and came out and beckoned to Ah Jin, "Mo Jin, come over and take a look at Li'er's dress for me." ”
Ah Jin nodded, got up and walked to the back room without hesitation. Ah Zhen followed Ah Jin a little nervously, and the closer Ah Jin got to Song Li, the more uneasy her heart became.
Ah Jin opened the bead curtain and walked to Song Li's side and carefully examined her from head to toe, then turned around and replied to Song Yu's family: "Mother-in-law must be the best for my sister-in-law to take care of her." The daughter-in-law has no opinion. ”
"That's good, that's good." After listening to Ah Jin's words, Song Yu didn't care how much compliment there was in it, and looked at Song Li with a smile. Looking at it, I couldn't help but redden.
Seeing this, Zhuang Xiaomeng hurriedly said: "Mother-in-law, you are partial, Xiaomeng said the same thing as her sister-in-law before, you still don't believe it." As soon as this sister-in-law came in and said this, you believed it. I don't depend on you. ”
After Zhuang Xiaomeng's interruption, Song Yushi broke into tears and laughed again, she stretched out her finger and lightly tapped Zhuang Xiaomeng's forehead, her tone was full of pity, "How can you fight for such a long and short in front of people, don't be ashamed." ”
Zhuang Xiaomeng smiled embarrassedly, grabbed Song Yu's sleeve and shook it gently, "Xiaomeng knows that he is wrong, he won't dare next time." ”
Ah Jin smiled and looked at the cunning wit on Zhuang Xiaomeng's face, and only felt that she and Zhuang Xiaomeng in her impression were like two people.
"Alright, we've been busy for most of the day. The next thing will be handed over to the bride and the maids," Song Yushi took Zhuang Xiaomeng's hand, turned his head and glanced at Song Li again, and whispered: "If you are sleepy, close your eyes and recuperate for a while." ”
Song Li listened silently and did not say a word. Song Yushi sighed and walked out of the room side by side with Zhuang Xiaomeng. Seeing this, Ah Jin was about to follow, but Song Li opened his mouth at this time.
"Sister-in-law, Li'er has something she wants to say to her sister-in-law."
Ah Jin paused in some surprise and turned to look at Song Li, who also raised his head to look at her.
"If you have anything to say, just say it."
Ah Jin pondered for a moment, then turned around and stood facing Song Li. The little maid who was waiting for Song Li was sorting out the bead crown for her, and when she saw that Ah Jin really stayed, her hand trembled slightly. The jewels collided lightly, making a crisp sound.
Song Li raised her hand to let the little maid go down, and Ah Jin's eyes remained on the little maid's body until she left the room, and then she withdrew her gaze, "I see that girl is very scared, but I don't know what I'm afraid of." ”
Song Li listened to Ah Jin's words, and a smile suddenly appeared on her expressionless face, which looked very weird, "Sister-in-law is too worried, what can she be afraid of." ”
As she spoke, her hands folded on her knees shifted to the position of her right hand, which was already in the wide sleeve of her left hand. Song Li trembled with excitement when she thought of what she was about to do, and she didn't know whether she was afraid or excited.
"What does my sister-in-law want to say to me?"
"Naturally, it's time to reminisce," Song Li looked at Ah Jin, and there was a glint in her eyes, "Tell me how my sister-in-law forced me to such a field step by step." ”
Ah Jin sneered when she heard this, "The sister-in-law and noble person are so forgetful, it seems that she has forgotten how she messed around in Yuehua Building." ”
Song Li's body stiffened, and his expression became even more hideous. This silent gold seems to be able to penetrate people's hearts, and every word he says can step on the weakness of others. Song Li gritted her teeth and looked at her, the hatred in her heart was about to overflow from her eyes.
"Actually, I haven't been able to understand why you hate me so much. Before I married into your Song family, we had never met. Ah Jin tilted his head, looked at Song Li's expression, and asked such a sentence.
"You deserve it too? If it weren't for the saint's marriage. You are the daughter of a merchant, I'm afraid you can't even step through the door of the inner city. You ......"
Song Li was about to say something, but Ah Jin suddenly stood up and let her body subconsciously step back. Ah Jin felt a little amused and took another step forward.
"Don't come here!"
Song Li let out a loud sigh and looked at Ah Jin vigilantly.
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing? Could it be that hysteria is about to happen again? ”
When Song Li heard the word hysteria, her face completely changed, and her voice trembled, "You...... Don't you want me to go back to that temple again, never for the rest of my life! ”
"No one wants you to go to the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha, but at that moment, if your mother-in-law doesn't send you over, it will hurt you. She's doing that to protect you. Ah Jin didn't seem to see the frightened and resentful look in her eyes, and persuaded bitterly.
"Shut up!" is such a calm and breezy appearance, which makes Song Li hate her so much. As if no matter when and where, there is nothing in this world that can make her face change, "Shen Mojin, even if you can speak well, if I die here, I see how you can get this matter over!" ”
said that it was too late, Song Li suddenly took out a dagger from her sleeve and stabbed it at her neck, seeing that the sharp blade was about to cut through Song Li's snow-white skin, her movements stopped abruptly.
Song Li's eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Ah Jin, who was standing opposite her, and in her opinion, the other party had clearly not moved a finger.
But why, why do you ......
Seeing Song Li looking at him in horror, Ah Jin smiled and said, "What? Do you find that you can't move? ”
She asked knowingly, naturally she didn't ask Song Li for a response. Because just now, she even sealed her dumb hole by the way. Ah Jin turned around, walked slowly to the side and sat down, and then looked at Song Li and said, "You don't have to be afraid, now you can't speak or move, it's all because I sealed your acupoint." However, none of those acupuncture points are dead holes and will not be fatal. At most, after I solve your acupoints, you will feel powerless. “
After Ah Jin finished speaking, he glanced at the dagger that was still in Song Li's hand, "You really impressed me, I thought you were hiding this thing to hurt me." But I didn't expect you to think of such a way to damage 1,000 enemies and injure 800 yourself...... Your bravery was unexpected to me, but your stupidity was expected. ”
Hearing Ah Jin scolding himself for being stupid, Song Li was so hateful that her eyes were about to pop out. But no matter how much she tried to summon her body, she couldn't move. Song Li looked at Ah Jin as if he was looking at a monster.
"I think you're not only stupid, but you also don't have a good memory. Or maybe I didn't teach you enough lessons? ”
Ah Jin said as he pulled out a roll of strings from his sleeve. The strings as thin as hair emitted a ghostly glow under the candlelight, making Song Li's body immediately freeze there, and he didn't even dare to have the idea of struggling.
"Now you know you're scared? Don't worry, I won't kill you," Ah Jin's gaze kept moving over the silver strings, "Killing you won't do me any good." I guess the little maid who went out just now should be looking for her mother-in-law, right? When they're about to enter the door, I'll unlock your acupuncture. ”
With that, Ah Jin put the string back into his sleeve. As soon as she stood up, there was a string of hurried footsteps outside the house. Ah Jin turned his head, glanced at Song Li slyly, and unlocked Song Li's acupoint in the next second.
Song Li only felt that his body was weak, and the dagger fell to the ground. When Song Yu stepped into the house, he happened to see this scene. She stared at the dagger with wide eyes for a long time, then raised her head to look at Song Li, "You ......"
"When Li'er took out this dagger from her sleeve just now, she was really frightened of the concubine, but fortunately, her mother-in-law arrived in time......" Ah Jin covered his chest with one hand and said softly with a frown. As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his head and glanced at the little maid meaningfully.
There were four female dependents in the room, only Ah Jin's expression was as usual, Zhuang Xiaomeng stood beside Song Yu's side and supported Song Yu's steadily, looking very calm, but in fact, his face was frighteningly white.
"Mother-in-law, the concubine retreated first. If anything happens, just send someone to the east wing to inform you. Ah Jin knew that it was not appropriate for him to stay in this room at this time, so he took Ah Zhen and left first.
From beginning to end, all the attention of Song Yu was on Song Li. She didn't care at all what others said, who came and who left.
Zhuang Xiao dreamed that Song Yu's was trembling with anger, for fear that Song Yu's would be angry, and just wanted to comfort him, but Song Yu's opened his mouth first, "What do you want to do with a knife?" Well? ”
Song Li, who was weak, was lying on the soft collapse, very embarrassed, her silence was a kind of acquiescence in Song Yu's eyes, which made the always dignified Song Yushi almost go crazy, "You say! What are you trying to do with a knife! ”
"What else can be done?" Song Li raised her head, looked at Song Yu with a broken jar, and smiled: "Since my mother already has the answer in her heart, why do you need to ask me?" ”
"You ......" Song Yu stretched out his hand and pointed at Song Li tremblingly, and in the end, he couldn't say a complete sentence. She closed her eyes in despair and turned away, not wanting to look at Song Li again, "Xiaomeng, you asked Mama Li to bring a few mothers-in-law in." ”
Zhuang Xiaomeng listened to her command herself, her eyebrows jumped, and she looked at Song Yu with some confusion and said, "Mother-in-law, this is ......"
"If you are told to go, you will go! Just go! Don't alarm your father-in-law, let alone the old lady. Song Yu commanded, and pushed Zhuang Xiaomeng out of the inner room.
“…… Mother, is this going to send me to the sedan chair? Song Li suddenly giggled, laughing so much that tears came out, "Even if her daughter doesn't have that Luo Tingchun in her heart at all, her mother will definitely let her daughter marry?" ”
"That's right! If you don't marry today, you have to marry, even if you really turn out to be yourself, your body will be carried into the Luo family's cemetery! This time, Song Yu's answer was categorical and without the slightest hesitation. She turned around and looked at Song Li sadly, "Your father is right, it was I who spoiled you and spoiled you to lawlessness to make you what you are today." Song Li, today's marriage is already a done deal, no matter what tricks you make, this matter has become a foregone conclusion. The consequences of your willful and reckless actions are only to disgrace yourself and the entire Song Mansion. I...... I, as your mother, must not watch you go on like this, no, never! ”
Song Yu said emotionally, and suddenly her voice was low again, and then what she said, Song Li couldn't hear it so clearly. She watched Song Yu pacing back and forth in the room in despair, and the uneasiness in her heart became more and more intense.
Seeing that there was a layer of fish belly white on the horizon, Mama Li took two rough mothers-in-law into the inner room. Song Yu, who was still spinning around in the room like ants on a hot pot, turned around and froze when he saw Mama Li.
"That thing, too?" Song Yu asked softly.
"Well, bring ...... But, ma'am, this ......"
Before Mama Li finished speaking, Song Yu unceremoniously interrupted her and motioned her not to ask again, "Use it for her!" Pay attention to proportion......"
"Yes......" Mama Li sighed, and finally led the two rough mothers-in-law to approach Song Li step by step.
……
After Ah Jin came out of Song Li's room, he took Ah Zhen to wander around the garden. The two masters and servants wandered around for a while, and when they saw that the sky was about to dawn, they returned to the east wing. As soon as I pushed the door, I saw Song Wenyu standing behind the screen and changing clothes.
Xu heard a noise at the door, and he paused to change his clothes, "Is it Ah Jin?" ”
"Hmm." Ah Jin replied weakly, sat down at the table, poured a cup of herbal tea, and drank it all.
Song Wenyu quickly changed into his regular clothes and sat down at the table opposite Ah Jin, "Why do you feel very tired?" It's Song Li who is embarrassing you again. ”
Ah Jin opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, and finally could only sigh helplessly, "Tell you one thing, don't be angry." ”
As soon as Ah Jin's words fell, Song Wenyu unconsciously sat up straight, and he bowed his head slightly and said, "You say." ”
"Song Li hid a dagger in his wedding robe, originally wanted to have a jade burn, but I restrained it." Ah Jin said it lightly, but the thrilling implied in these three words made Song Wenyu a little overwhelmed for a while.
When he came back to his senses, a look of anger appeared between his eyebrows, "Did she hurt you?" ”
"No, I saw all her small movements, how could she hurt me...... It's just that she is getting more and more drilly, and if she marries into the Luo family, won't she overturn the roof of someone else's house? ”
Song Wenyu looked at Ah Jin's eyes, and only felt that these eyes were so pure and clear while penetrating the world. At that moment, he suddenly didn't want to make the pros and cons too clear, as if he was afraid that these worldly things would pollute this rare purity in her eyes.
Song Wenyu stretched out his hand and hugged Ah Jin in his arms, and replied expressionlessly, "This is not something you should worry about, no need to think about it." ”
Ah Jin was stunned for a moment, and felt that he was reasonable, so he didn't talk about this issue anymore, "It's not early, the two of us will clean up, and we will go to Luofu with my father and mother to eat wedding wine later." ”
"Well, I'll let Huairen go to the jewelry alley to pick up the gift." Song Wenyu nodded lightly, the smile on his face was very faint, if he didn't look carefully, there was really no way to detect that his mood was happy.
"But, maybe there are still things in the house that need my help." Ah Jin thought about it and agreed to Song Wenyu's proposal.
It's just that, to the surprise of the two, it was only when the team to pick up the relatives arrived at the gate of the Song Mansion, and they didn't see any movement from Song Li's side. Song Wenyu felt strange, but he couldn't say what was strange. When Song Li was carried out of the Song Mansion by Song Wenyuan, Song Wenyu stopped in the crowd to watch, only to feel that Song Li, who was lying on Song Wenyuan's body at this moment, was too quiet, and the silence made him feel very uneasy.
Seeing that the bride had already sat in the sedan chair and the crowd gradually dispersed, Song Wenyu still stubbornly stood in place, staring at the big red team that was gradually moving away. Suddenly, he felt someone gently tugging at the corner of his clothes. Looking back, Ah Jin was motioning for him to go back to the house with his eyes.
Seeing this, Song Wenyu strode to Ah Jin's side, "Do you have something to say to me?" ”
Ah Jin glanced at her, didn't hurry to speak, the two walked in the direction of the east wing for a while, until they were sure that there was no one around, Ah Jin stopped, "Do you think Song Li's reaction just now is a little strange." ”
"You see that, too?" As soon as Ah Jin asked, Song Wenyu was even more sure that the uneasiness in his heart just now was not unfounded.
"It's a little unusual, but don't think about the bad things. After all, she is her mother-in-law's biological daughter, and her mother-in-law will not harm her after all. ”
Song Wenyu gritted his teeth and didn't speak for a long time, "So, do you know what your mother did to Li'er?" ”
"I don't know, I'm just guessing." Ah Jin saw that his face was so pale with anger that he said ambiguously.
"Then tell your conjecture."
Seeing that the other party didn't give him a chance to play tricks, Ah Jin sighed helplessly, "I said, don't be angry." ”
"Say!"
Ah Jin bit his lip and was silent for a long time before he whispered: "There is a medicine in this world that can make people hallucinate. I guess my mother-in-law fed Song Li that kind of medicine. Let her think that she is with ......"
"That's enough, don't say any more." Song Wenyu waved his hand, and for a moment, he only felt physically and mentally exhausted.
Ah Jin saw that he was slowly sitting in the corridor in a daze, so he sat down with him, "I won't say it, don't be angry." ”
“…… It's me, the elder brother, who didn't do a good job. Song Wenyu watched the autumn wind blow a pool of lake water, and said softly.
