Chapter 42: Is It Sincere?
"Miss Cousin?" Hehe, that sick Lan Mei.
Mama Yang didn't seem to like this cousin very much, and when she saw Jia Qianqian's inquiring tone, she talked about her in a rambling manner.
"Miss Biao's name is Zhen Lan, her mother and the old farmer are brother and sister, her mother was born prematurely when she gave birth to her, so she was frail and sickly after birth. When she was nine years old, her mother died, and her father continued the next year, and the old owner was afraid that his niece would be angry with his stepmother, so he took her to live in Wujian Villa. First, she can take care of her niece, and secondly, she and Ah Lei have each other's company.
Miss Cousin has been coming to the villa for six years, it has been twenty-eight years, and she is also Tingting Yuli, and her personality is also very gentle, but the body is really too weak, and she is sick at both ends in three days, as soon as she is sick, her maid Xiaohe will definitely pester Ah Lei to guard her, saying that with him there to accompany her, Miss's illness can get better quickly. Tell me, this Swordless Villa is so big and famous, Ah Lei always has to help the old owner take care of it, how can he guard her every day?
Anyway, the old body doesn't like this Miss Cousin very much, and now Ah Lei wants to marry you, and he attaches so much importance to you, the old body is really happy! ”
Jia Qianqian smiled bitterly, does Shangguan Lei really want to marry him? Placing himself in this small courtyard of special significance, not hesitating to go against the wishes of the old owner, and may even hurt a cousin who loves him deeply, is it really because he likes himself?
Shangguan Lei led Dr. Xue to come, this Dr. Xue is a famous holy hand doctor in the rivers and lakes, lost his trace for many years, the old owner Shangguan Xiong met him by chance, so he used the face and heavy money of the first villa to invite him to live and treat his niece Zhen Lan. It can be seen how much Shangguan Xiong loves this niece.
After Dr. Xue diagnosed Jia Qianqian's pulse, he told Shangguan Lei not to worry, he took his medicine, and he would be completely cured after three or five days of recuperation. As for the scars on Qianqian's face, after applying the ointment he had prepared, it would not leave any scars.
After sending Dr. Xue away, Mama Yang also went to decoct the medicine herself. Shangguan Lei sat down beside Jia Qianqian's bed, took out the jade pendant and handed it to her, "Qianqian, this is the engagement jade pendant I gave you, I'm glad you have always kept it with you." I'll keep it for you after you're unconscious, and I'll leave it to you now. ”
Jia Qianqian looked at him and shook his head lightly, "At the beginning, we said that it was a fake engagement, although now I live in the villa, but I didn't promise to marry you, so I can't ask for this jade pendant." ”
Shangguan Lei's demeanor was still gentle, but his tone was rarely stubborn, "I also said that I am not acting, this jade pendant will not be taken back if it is given away, if you don't want it, you will throw it away yourself." After speaking, he put the jade pendant in Qianqian's hand.
After hesitating for a moment, he said slowly: "This jade pendant was given to me by my mother, and she said that she would give it to her future daughter-in-law." ”
This man has always treated all the people around him with a bright smile and a calm and gentle demeanor, but Jia Qianqian knows that these are his masks, and he hides his emotions too deep and too deep, as if there is nothing in this world that can make him worry about him, so he can be calm. But at this time, there was concern in his eyes, and his emotions were no longer undisturbed.
Jia Qianqian looked at him fixedly, his fingers pinching the jade pendant tightly, did he forget what happened in the valley? Okay, don't be suspicious and suspicious of him? That's it, marry him desperately!
At this time, the door was pushed open, and Xiaohe broke in with a sad and angry face.
"Young Master Cousin, my young lady is crying, go and see her, how can you bear to hurt her?"
Shangguan Lei stood up and said calmly: "Xiaohe, I know that although you and Sister Lan are masters and servants, they are actually sisters, but I still remind you again, this small courtyard, without my consent, no one is allowed to trespass without permission." ”
Xiaohe had probably never seen Shangguan Lei talk to her in such a tone, and she was stunned for a while. Why? Why did Master Cousin change so much when he went out? Does he no longer cherish Miss? Does he really want to marry another woman? Does that woman have some kind of fox tricks?
Shangguan Lei smiled at Jia Qianqian again: "I'll go see my cousin, you can rest first, and then introduce you to each other after both of you recover." ”
Jia Qianqian nodded lightly and watched him and Xiaohe leave.
Before leaving, Xiaohe turned around and glanced at Qianqian resentfully, and that glance made Jia Qianqian sober up from the tenderness just now.
Alas! Looking at this girl's eyes, I can't wait to eat myself, if I really marry Shangguan Lei, the consequences are a bit unimaginable!
