Chapter 8: Who framed you?
"Nothing."
Xiao Yicheng shook his head and replied, "The No. 1 geisha in the capital understands medical skills, and he is self-taught, so I'm curious." ”
Jiang Juan was thinking about what to say, and his eyes met Xiao Yicheng's eyes.
Seeing that Xiao Yichen's eyes were deep and unclear, Jiang Wan felt in a trance that he should not be so curious.
Jiang Juan was already sensitive to her life experience, so she raised her vigilance and replied carefully: "I was picked up by Yun Niang, so I don't know about my ancestors." ”
Xiao Yicheng raised his eyebrows, and continued to ask, "Oh? Where did you pick it up? Is it the capital, or Qingzhou, or the northern Xinjiang? Or is it further afield? ”
Jiang Juan was suddenly even more stunned, what happened to Xiao Yicheng, why was she suddenly so interested in where she came from?
Moreover, the places he said were all north of the capital, and even closer and closer to the original Beiliang realm.
Thinking of Xiao Yicheng in his previous life after learning her identity, he searched for her all over the world, Jiang Juan suddenly became excited, and his heart of vigilance instantly burned.
"I don't know."
Jiang Juan shook his head, and asked rhetorically: "The second son is so attentive to my ancestors, doesn't he want to help me find relatives?" ”
"Joke, how could I ......"
Without waiting for Xiao Yicheng to finish speaking, Jiang Juan hurriedly thanked him and said: "If this is the case, then I am really grateful, if the second son can really find my family, I hope to inform me as soon as possible." ”
Xiao Yi originally wanted to mock Jiang Juan, but after thinking about it, he smiled meaningfully: "The fourth aunt is polite." ”
"I am the righteous son of Houfu, and it is right to share my aunt's worries, but I don't know much about my aunt's past, so I wonder if my aunt can provide some clues?"
Scold! The answer was so refreshing, and the attitude was so enthusiastic, it was not at all as indifferent as before.
It seems that Xiao Yicheng is really eager to know her life experience!
Jiang Juan's face changed slightly, and then he thought that Xiao Yicheng wanted to bandage her wound for the first time last night, and when he saw the wound, he suddenly became sluggish, and Jiang Juan's heart trembled suddenly.
It seems that he has become suspicious of her.
Jiang Juan couldn't help but meditate on his memories.
But she didn't remember when Xiao Yicheng found out that the little princess of Beiliang was still alive in her previous life, and began to associate her with the little princess.
She only remembered that when she was arrested and imprisoned in her previous life, Xiao Yicheng hated her so much that he wanted to tear her apart immediately.
Jiang Juan sighed secretly: At the moment, Xiao Yicheng is just suspicious, so the top priority is to divert Xiao Yicheng's attention first, so as not to lose too many words.
Jiang Juan hurriedly came back to his senses and said calmly: "I grew up in a pear orchard since I was a child, and I don't remember anything before that, but I can tell you about the things after that." ”
"When I was a child, I was picked up by Yun Niang and returned to the pear orchard, she cherished me and taught me a lot of things, but she was reluctant to let me show up to perform arts."
"It wasn't until Sister Yunni had an accident last year that Liyuan couldn't find someone to replace her for a while, so Yun Niang decided to let me play the music."
"Just because of that pipa sound, I became famous and became the first geisha in the capital, and it was at that time that I met Song Huaijin."
Jiang Juan slowly changed the topic, talking about how the two fell in love, but never mentioned how Song Huaijin undertook her and how she entangled her after marrying into the Hou Mansion.
At first glance, it makes people feel that this is a matter of love between ordinary children's families, rather than a geisha and a young master.
Jiang Juan knew that Xiao Yicheng was protective of his shortcomings, and he would not be able to hear Jiang Juan say that Song Huaijin was not, so she avoided these for the time being.
Xiao Yicheng's face was quite calm when he heard it, as if he was listening to the stories of others.
It wasn't until Jiang Juan said that she and Song Huaijin were always innocent, even after marrying into the Hou Mansion, that Xiao Yicheng finally couldn't hold back.
He can't empathize with the love of his children, but he can understand the humiliation of the Song family's reputation when it is trampled on by rumors.
Xiao Yicheng's eyes lit up slightly, "You said you were innocent, but why did I hear all the jokes between you and your eldest brother?" ”
Jiang Wan lowered his eyes and was silent, and his heart was instantly turbulent.
At the beginning, it was Song Huaijin who disliked her identity as Jiang Juan, and was unwilling to redeem her for her, so she was determined to live for life.
Obviously it was him, and after Jiang Juan married into the Hou Mansion, he frequently emphasized that sentence: "Fourth aunt, you should have been mine." ”
It is also obvious that someone in the house looked at her unpleasantly, and deliberately spread rumors, saying that the fourth aunt was shameless, and at the same time seduced the father and son of the Song family and was not satisfied.
On the day of the birthday banquet, she was calculated, and others believed this rumor, and Jiang Juan was also in a place of no return.
Every time she thought of this, Jiang Juan felt resentful, but she knew that if she wanted Xiao Yicheng to change her mind, she had to let him see it and figure it out.
Jiang Juan thought for a while and replied seriously: "Rumors are rumors after all, if you want me to give an explanation, then I can only say that I was framed." ”
"The second son is smart, he should understand that prostitutes love money and cherish their lives, and there is no need to bury his future for the sake of the man who abandoned me."
"As for my innocence, when the Hou Ye returns, I will be able to prove one or two."
Jiang Juan looked at Xiao Yicheng quietly, but his soft eyes flashed with firmness and perseverance that were different from the past.
She got up slowly, endured the pain and approached Xiao Yicheng, "I know you don't believe me, and you hate geisha and don't know shame, but I have to look at people from my heart, I am different from them in your eyes." ”
Jiang Xuan's steps were getting closer and closer, and his tone was becoming more and more firm, and Xiao Yicheng was in a trance for a moment when he heard it.
He used to think that the prostitutes in the world were all merry, and he never disdained to look at it twice, but at this time, when he looked at Jiang Huang like this, he vaguely felt that maybe Jiang Wan was really different.
Xiao Yicheng looked at Jiang Juan complicatedly, and was a little more interested in her.
He paused and blurted out: "You always say that you were framed, so you say, who is that person?" ”
Jiang Juan stopped in front of Xiao Yicheng and asked rhetorically: "Will the second son believe me?" ”
Xiao Yicheng said indifferently: "Whether I believe it or not, I don't know until you say it." ”
Jiang Wan hesitated for a moment, but decided to recount the scene of that day, even though she knew that Cangyue had already explained the events of the birthday banquet.
She recalled for a moment and said, "I remember that I was poisoned by aphrodisiac after eating the dim sum sent by the eldest lady, and then accidentally crashed into the courtyard of the prince. ”
"I only felt that my mind was in a state of chaos, and I couldn't help myself, and when I found out that the situation was not good, the eldest lady led people into the courtyard, and then the guests came, and the human and material evidence was there, and I couldn't argue."
Xiao Yicheng frowned slightly, "You mean, the person who calculates you is a stepmother?" ”
Jiang Juan didn't answer positively, but Xiao Yichen felt that she meant that.
"Impossible!"
Xiao Yicheng's face turned cold when he saw her like this, "She is the mother of the Hou Mansion and the biological mother of my eldest brother, how could she take advantage of the reputation of the eldest brother and the Hou Mansion in order to calculate you?" ”
