Chapter 019: Someone Else's Fault
Lin Jia stood motionless, refusing to let go even when Mrs. Lin wanted to apply scalding cream to him.
Mrs. Lin finally became anxious, "What the hell is going on!" You speak! β
"Mother......" Lin Jia said with difficulty, "The marriage contract can be broken, right?" The deceased's decision doesn't necessarily count, does it? β
Mrs. Lin finally pulled Lin Jia's hot hand over and gave him the medicine carefully, so she didn't listen carefully.
"What?"
"If others are unwilling, they can't rely on the power of the royal family to marry!" Lin Jia gritted his teeth.
"You ......," Mrs. Lin came back to her senses, "what are you talking about?" What marriage contract? What royal family? Are you talking about that? β
"Mother!" Lin Jia knelt on the ground, "Sister Li doesn't want to marry into the Anping Palace, so I beg my mother to be the master and fulfill Sister Li!" β
"You, you!" Mrs. Lin was caught off guard by this unexpected request, took a few steps backwards, and fell back into the circle chair.
"Mother!" Lin Jia knelt forward a few steps forward and grabbed the corner of Mrs. Lin's skirt, "I am a childhood sweetheart with Limei, I don't want her to marry that prodigal,"
"Shut up!" Mrs. Lin shouted angrily.
"......" Lin Jia knelt on the ground, and from his mother's tone, he had already expected her attitude.
"Go back to your own courtyard! Give me a good reflection these days! Kneel down for a woman, do you still have the backbone! Mrs. Lin trembled angrily and pointed at the door, "Go back quickly!" β
Lin Jia got up silently, and his gloomy expression couldn't help but make Mrs. Lin's heart tighten.
That was her proudest son! How could it suddenly be decadent like this for a woman!
Mrs. Lin looked out the window at the deep twilight, and the gloom between her eyebrows became thicker, her son would not be so attentive to anyone, unless......
Thinking of this, Mrs. Lin gritted her teeth, unless Song Li, a little slut, deliberately seduced her, she didn't want to marry into the palace, so that Jia Ge'er became so obsessed, would you use Jia Ge'er to get rid of the marriage contract? If such a thing spreads, how will the Lin Mansion gain a foothold in front of the Anping Mansion in the future?
Song Li took things as a good thing, exchanged for a silver ticket, and was rushing to Jinyunju with Baoyue, how could he have thought that at this moment, the pot fell from the sky and sneezed several times in a row.
Baoyue looked at Song Li worriedly, "Miss, it's a little late, why don't you go again tomorrow?" β
Song Li shook her head, the sooner she saw Wei Chengxuan, the sooner she could arrange it, and it would not be good for her to drag it out.
In Jinyunju, Wei Chengxuan was quietly looking out of the window, and Xia Mu entered the house with a cool air, "Shizi, Miss Song is here with someone." And explained Song Li's itinerary in detail before.
"Hmm." Wei Chengxuan didn't turn around, "Have the people guarding the Song Mansion passed things back these days?" β
Xia Mu handed over a letter, Wei Chengxuan opened it, and raised the corners of his lips while looking at it, "Go and replace the tea and food with the prepared ones." β
Xia Mu bowed his head.
Wei Chengxuan's eyes stayed on the paper, she was different from when she was a child, she always cried and cried to help herself when she was a child, but now she knows that she can bend and stretch, step by step.
"Shizi, the people are coming."
Wei Chengxuan turned around, "Please come up." β
Jinyunju is a teahouse, after entering, the lower floor is scattered tables, and a stage is built in the middle, and storytellers will be invited regularly, and the grass stage opera team will be lively. From the stairs on both sides of the stairs up is the teahouse private room, go straight and turn around the innermost private room with a small attic, perennial only for one person.
After Song Li entered the door, she saw the guard who was like a ghost and was always following Wei Chengxuan, waiting for her with his hands in his hands.
"The prince is in the private room above, please Miss Song come with me." It was Xia Mu who spoke.
Baoyue was about to keep up with Song Li, who was turning, but was stopped by Xia Mu stretching out his hand and looking at Baoyue with a smile, "The prince talks to people, if it is not necessary, no third person is allowed to be present." β
"That's my young lady!" Baoyue glared at Xia Mu, and said that she wanted to push her arm away and follow.
"She is also the fiancΓ©e of the prince, is there anything that Miss Baoyue is worried about?" Xia Mu still had a smile on his face, but his arm was motionless.
Baoyue tried her best, but the other party didn't move, stomped her feet and whispered, "You get out of the way quickly!" Otherwise, I'll be angry! β
Xia Mu shook his head with a smile.
"You!" Baoyue bit her lip, just in time to see Song Li in front of her who turned her head when she heard the voice, and hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Miss, he won't let me follow." β
Song Li thought about it, what she was going to talk about with Wei Chengxuan today was too deviant, and only the two of them were more comfortable, so she opened her mouth and ordered, "You wait there, I'll come out in a while." β
Baoyue finally quieted down when she heard this, but she still glared at Xia Mu angrily, and stood aside obediently and waited.
Xia Mu felt funny, "It's not the same in the end, why was it disobedient in the first place?" β
"That's what Miss ordered, if Miss wants me to pass, even if you ...... Even if you're standing here with a knife, I'll have to get there. Baoyue pouted, thinking that she was really afraid of him.
"A loyal servant." Xia Mu showed an approving gaze.
Baoyue snorted lightly, this is still up to you.
Wei Chengxuan sat at the table near the window, and the purple clay pot on the table wafted out the fragrance of tea, but when Song Li walked over, he still smelled the crisp smell first.
"Shizi." Song Li calmed down, took out a silver ticket, and gently pushed it over.
Wei Chengxuan didn't look at it, and pointed to the chair opposite, "Use tea first, and then eat something." β
Song Li was indeed a little hungry, and when she sat down, she saw that all the pastries on the table were her favorites, silver silk rolls, golden crispy red bean cakes, and the tea she was used to drinking.
I don't know how many people have set a gentle trap in this way, Song Li buried her head, eating and drinking while slandering.
Wei Chengxuan held the tea and quietly looked at the person opposite, his gaze was far away, as if he had crossed thousands of mountains and rivers, and finally fell on the person he wanted to see.
Song Li naturally felt the other party's undisguised eyes, and thought that she didn't shirk it, and she scared people by eating and drinking when she came up. So he looked up and tried to defend himself.
But facing Wei Chengxuan's peach blossom eyes, Song Li was suddenly speechless.
The eyes of the man opposite were full of gentle pampering, the shallow smile on the corner of his mouth did not seem to be laughing at himself, and the satisfied look on his face was like seeing the picture he had been looking forward to for a long time.
"Shizi?" Song Li touched his face suspiciously, he had been staring at himself like this all along?
