Chapter 59 Reluctantly
Oh, I claimed to people that she was the fourth aunt of the Hou Mansion before, but now I can't even say it?
Jiang Juan leaned against the corner of the wall and said casually: "As long as Master Hou doesn't nod, even if I take the money and leave, I can turn back and continue to be my fourth aunt." ”
"Besides, no matter who I am now, I can take the money and fly away regardless of the life or death of the people in Qinghe Town, but I still came back, and I came back in the name of the fourth aunt of the Hou Mansion."
"Not only that, but I also took all my life, risked being infected and faced all the serious illnesses alone, and now I am so tired that I have to lie down, but you say that it is not my turn?"
The more Jiang Juan spoke, the calmer he became, and the more Xiao Yicheng listened, the more his heart surged.
If it were someone else, I am afraid that I would have swept away all the medicinal materials and fled.
Even if that person didn't flee, she would have taken the opportunity to take credit, or pick up easy things to gain fame, and she might not have risked her life.
Therefore, it is indeed rare for Jiang Juan to be able to do this.
Countless thoughts flashed through Xiao Yicheng's mind, and although he convinced himself in his heart, his face was still unmoved.
He sat down suddenly, and while banging his legs, he said coldly: "I'm also very tired and have no energy, I'm afraid I won't be able to help Aunt Jiang." ”
Seeing him like this, Jiang Juan could only snort "stingy" secretly and give up.
She snorted lightly, found a comfortable position to lean on, and changed the topic: "Second son, do you want me to go back?" ”
Xiao Yicheng paused, continued to beat his calf, and said lightly: "You took the money, and you nodded the contract, so where is your turn to ask me about this?" ”
"I'm going to ask you."
Jiang Juan suddenly sat up straight, Xiao Yicheng subconsciously turned his head, and happened to meet the two of them.
The moonlight was dim, Jiang Juan couldn't see Xiao Yicheng's expression clearly, and could only feel the sound of his breathing.
She looked at Xiao Yicheng's face and chuckled: "If you want me to go back, I will go back, if you don't want to, I will leave when the fever is over." ”
"After the Hou Ye returns, the eldest lady must have thought of a way to deal with it, and since then, I have nothing to do with the Hou Mansion."
Jiang Juan paused and asked seriously: "Second son, are you willing to do it?" ”
The gentle breathing hit Xiao Yicheng's face, his heart moved slightly, and the first thought that flashed through his mind was "reluctant".
But soon, he hurriedly put the thought down again.
He is the adopted son of the Song family, what does the fourth aunt have to do with him if she leaves or stays? How could he have such thoughts?
Xiao Yicheng turned his head to avoid Jiang Xuan's gaze, and said coldly: "The fourth aunt asked really strangely, I don't have any affection for you, why can't I be reluctant?" ”
"Really?" Jiang Wan tilted his head and continued to ask.
Xiao Yicheng's heart jumped, he frowned for a moment, and said, "Really." ”
He hesitated.
Jiang Juan's heart moved, and his eyes were full of pride.
His hesitation means that he doesn't want to, but he can't say it clearly.
His reluctance to say it meant that he was moved, but he didn't dare to admit it.
"We have worked hard together, but you say that you have no feelings, and the sentence of 'willingness' is so easy."
Jiang Juan smiled, looking helpless, "Second son, I am also a member of the Song family, why do you have to favor one over the other?" ”
Xiao Yicheng was silent.
Jiang Juan felt that it was difficult to get out in one breath, so she simply leaned against the wall again, eating meatloaf while relieving herself.
After two bites, she couldn't help but ask, "I waited for you at my uncle's house for two days, why did you come here so late?" ”
Xiao Yicheng replied: "I was too busy with business, so I delayed it." ”
Jiang Juan asked again: "Is the old lady better?" ”
Xiao Yicheng nodded, "I've woken up, her state has improved a lot, I didn't expect that your pills are really useful." ”
"Of course, my medical skills follow divine medicine."
Jiang Juan immediately realized that she was a little talkative, and she hurriedly changed the topic, "Have you asked the eldest lady about 50,000 taels?" ”
Xiao Yicheng's movements froze, and his face was slightly gloomy.
Before he came, he gave Xu Shi time so that she could come forward to do good, but Xu Shi has not moved yet.
Among the prominent families in the capital, only the Song family still did not act.
Fortunately, the medicinal materials can be dealt with in a timely manner, and Lord Zhang has not yet asked about the donation, so Xiao Yicheng can still not mention this matter for the time being.
Feeling the changes in Xiao Yicheng, Jiang Juan had already guessed seven, seven, eight or eight in his heart.
She smiled and probed again: "You guys fell out? ”
Xiao Yicheng turned his head and glanced at her, "The fourth aunt is happy to look at people against her?" ”
"Heh, the second son really misunderstood me."
Jiang Juan couldn't see the look on Xiao Yicheng's face clearly, so he could only say leisurely: "I don't want your kindness and loyalty to be fed to the dog." ”
Xiao Yicheng snorted lightly, "This is my business, the fourth aunt doesn't have to bother." ”
Jiang Juan refused to give up, "The eldest lady is kind and generous in the eyes of the world, but she poisons people behind her back, sells His Majesty's favors privately, and hides them from the people in the house. ”
"In order to get rid of her aunt in Fuzhong, she did not hesitate to spend 50,000 taels, and even used robbers in the rivers and lakes, but she didn't pull out a dime on the matter of the homeless people."
Jiang Juan looked at Xiao Yicheng and sneered, "Second son, this is the person you bother to maintain, is it worth it?" ”
Xiao Yicheng slammed suddenly, and his heart surged even more.
Jiang Juan didn't notice Xiao Yicheng's abnormal expression, and continued: "People like her may turn their faces ruthlessly one day, and the second son is not afraid of ......."
Xiao Yicheng finally couldn't bear it anymore, he grabbed Jiang Xuan's arm suddenly, looked back and said coldly: "Is enough enough?" ”
Jiang Juan exclaimed in pain, "You lighten it up, it hurts me!" ”
Xiao Yicheng frowned: "I know that the pain doesn't stop?" ”
Jiang Wan glared.
Oh, it's all said that at this point, he's still defending that woman.
Jiang Wan was unconvinced, but the pain in her wrist forced her to compromise.
"You don't like to hear it, I don't say it."
Jiang Xuan stared at Xiao Yicheng's hand with both eyes, and said urgently, "My hand is to save people, you broke it, what should they do?" ”
Xiao Yicheng frowned, and gave Jiang Wan a warning in his eyes for a long time before letting go and sitting back in his original position.
He lowered his eyes and looked at his toes, and was silent for a moment before saying, "You can listen to what I am going to say next." ”
"The Song family has given me the grace of recreation, even if my stepmother acts inappropriately, she is really good to me, and I can't be ungrateful."
"Although my surname is Xiao, I am also half of the Song family, if my stepmother is wrong, I will persuade her and give her a chance."
"But you're not allowed to say that again, do you hear?"
There was peace all around.
Xiao Yicheng's tone instantly became a little colder, "I spoke, did you hear it?" ”
Jiang Juan still didn't respond.
Xiao Yicheng felt that something was wrong, he looked back and saw Jiang Juan falling asleep with his head tilted.
His face froze.
This woman didn't get tired after talking so much just now, and he only said a word or two, and this woman actually fell asleep!
Xiao Yicheng was suddenly angry, and got up to leave.
But as soon as the others stood up, Jiang Wan's body tilted towards him.
