Chapter Ninety-Five: Affection
Du Jun couldn't figure out Song Jiang's thoughts.
Du Jun is not beautiful, neither the virtuous and virtuous virtues required by this era, nor the graceful generosity of today's women, and he doesn't know anything about poetry and songs.
Song Jiang has a good background, good looks, a good career, and can be literate and martial, why would you pick a very ordinary country girl like me.
From the perspective of the marriage contract, it makes sense.
Song Jiang had a good impression of Du Jun, and Du Jun knew about it, but he couldn't use his good impression to drag Song Jiang into the marriage contract to relieve her.
If it is to solve the current predicament, it can only be said that Song Jiang is a good person, Du Jun is grateful for this, but he will not agree.
instructed the fourth uncle to send someone to the county government to send a message to Song Jiang, and agreed to meet at noon tomorrow.
She wants to have a good talk with Song Jiang.
Song Jiang returned to Yamen, but he began to suffer from gains and losses, not because he regretted going to the farm to propose to the Zheng family, but because Du Jun refused again.
There's always a sense of taking advantage of others.
It wasn't until late afternoon that Du Jun sent someone over to meet at the teahouse at noon tomorrow, and this heart was settled.
It is Du Jun's idea to choose a teahouse, those restaurants in Anxian County, the shopkeeper and Du Jun are all acquainted, whether this meeting is good or bad, it is not suitable for exposing people at present, Song Jiang's idea is the same as Du Jun's.
In the afternoon of the next day, in a box in the Tianxiang Tea House in Anxian County, Du Jun and Song Jiang sat opposite each other.
The atmosphere in the box was very depressing, and after sitting down, the two of them looked at each other, and they were embarrassed to speak first.
Du Jun was also nervous, but at this point, he could only muster up his courage and said directly to Song Jiang: "Song Zhutou, thank you very much for helping me out of the siege, but I don't need to, I know that you are for me, so I can't use you." β
Break the siege? What's the solution? Du Jun's words made Song Jiang frown.
solemnly replied: "I think Miss Du misunderstood, I didn't think about relieving you, let alone using it, I just wanted to ...... Marry you. β
Now that the words have been spoken, then simply ask to understand, looking at the shy face in front of him, Du Jun took a deep breath, and then said: "Since you said so, I also have some doubts in my heart, if there is anything inappropriate in the words, please forgive Song Gongzi." β
"But it doesn't hurt to say it, please speak up, girl."
"Song Gongzi was born in a famous family, and he is the head catcher in the county, young and promising, with a bright future. And I, Du Jun, am self-aware, just a village girl who has just come to Anxian County from the countryside, has no talent and no appearance, and is pregnant with someone else's child, why do you fall in love with a girl like me. I thought about it, and I couldn't find a reason to convince myself. β
This is the biggest question in Du Jun's heart, in ancient times, in addition to taking care of the people around him, he also wanted to find a man who suited him.
Song Jiang's external conditions, Du Jun is acceptable, but as a time-traveler with modern thoughts, she also wants to find a man who likes her.
She wants to know what she looks like in Song Jiang's eyes.
"Miss Du don't be impatient, let's talk about my life experience, it's not from a famous family that Miss Du thinks, I'm afraid ...... It will also disappoint Miss Du. β
"I'm an ordinary country woman myself, so how can I care about other people's backgrounds? Song Gongzi was too careful. β
Hearing Du Jun say this, Song Jiang began to introduce himself slowly and logically.
"The Song Mansion is indeed a famous family in Mingyuan City, but that is my uncle, my father is only the second master of the Song Mansion, and he has been separated for many years, but outsiders don't know, my mother is one of my father's many concubines, and gave birth to me and my sister, so I am just an inconspicuous concubine, and I am not more noble than you."
This is the first time Du Jun has heard that Song Jiang, who has a handsome temperature and face, has an embarrassing life experience, but he is relieved of the vigilance in his heart.
Song Jiang's gaze was a little blurred, staring at the teacup in front of him, as if he had fallen into some kind of memory.
"In that Song Mansion, I saw too much deception and careful calculation. When I was still young, I knew that if I wanted to get ahead, I could only rely on myself, so I studied and practiced martial arts desperately, just to change my fate, but the Song Mansion was like a big mountain, pressing on my chest, making people breathless. Just because I am a concubine, I am forbidden to participate in the scientific examination, for fear that I will surpass their son in the future. After more than ten years of hard work, I was unwilling, but I had no choice, and finally I could only go to Anxian County with the help of a few friends and do a head catcher. Outsiders look at me beautifully, but who knows what I have suffered in those years. β
These words have been held in his heart for many years, and he has never said them to anyone, but in the face of Du Jun's encouraging expression, Song Jiang unconsciously said them, he wanted Du Jun to know her past and all his past.
"In the past two years since I came to Anxian County, the days have gradually passed dullly, I thought that this life would be like this, and I lived a dull life until I met you, Miss Du. I can't tell you how it feels to Miss Du, the first time I saw you, you were still taking off the clothes of three men. β
Du Jun was embarrassed for a while, how could this kind of thing be seen.
Song Jiang looked at Du Jun's embarrassment, and couldn't help laughing, his doting eyes still looking at Du Jun's delicate face.
"At that time, I felt that this girl was very special, and it made me want to go forward and make friends. I was very happy to see you again, but when Miss Du said that you have a fiancΓ©, I dispelled the idea, as you said at the beginning, you can't ruin your reputation. β
"In the following three months, inadvertently, we also met, your strong independence made me admire, watching you smile, my heart will laugh with you, but I didn't have the courage to go to you, until I heard that you were going to recruit a son-in-law, I didn't know that I still cared about you and didn't want you to marry someone else. I also know that you are pregnant, you don't have to worry about this, I will raise him as if he were my own child. β
"That's why I took the liberty to go to your mother and propose marriage to you with her, I just want you to be my wife, the only wife, but if Miss Du doesn't agree, I won't take advantage of others. Du Jun, you are a very special girl, and the only girl I want to take care of and cherish for more than 20 years, the child's business, it's not your fault, don't take it to heart, or maintain your own personality, you don't need to change, you are not as unbearable as you say, you are very good-looking, in my heart you are the most beautiful girl. β
After Song Jiang's words were finished, Du Jun did not come to his senses for a long time.
Who said that the ancients didn't understand romance, this sweet love story, Song Jiang came casually, Du Jun's heart was accelerating, and she admitted that she was moved by the boy in front of her.
Du Jun's heart was torn open by Song Jiang's confession, this handsome silly boy likes himself, Du Jun is secretly happy.
Du Jun's face slowly flushed, struggled for a while, looked up at Song Jiang's affectionate eyes, and asked worriedly: "Then your marriage, can your family agree?" β
"The marriage of the concubine is all made by himself, you don't have to worry about this, but after marriage, I can't go back to the Song Mansion, I have to move out and live by myself, I'm afraid you will suffer."
