Chapter 36

When Jiang Yukang returned home, before he could go back and tell Song Wanqing the good news that Lu Zhenbao had returned home safely, he saw his mother, Mrs. Jiang and Master Song sitting in front of the hall with serious expressions, waiting for her. A bad premonition rose spontaneously.

"Mother, uncle..."

"Has Bao'er arrived home safely?" Mrs. Jiang asked.

"My boy has already sent Bao'er to Lu's house." Jiang Yukang felt panicked for no reason, always thinking that what Mrs. Jiang was going to talk about next must have something to do with Lu Zhenbao.

"Well, you did a good job on this matter." Mrs. Jiang nodded in relief. "This time, our Jiang family has contributed money and efforts, and we have not treated the Lu family badly."

"Mother, what do you mean..." Jiang Yukang vaguely understood what Mrs. Jiang meant.

"The South Sea pearls used by the Lu family to get married are still in the capital. When we go back, we can return the South Sea pearls to them. This marriage can finally be done." Mrs. Jiang did not expect that the matter that had troubled her for so many years would finally be consummated. solve.

"But... how do we tell Uncle Lu?" Jiang Yukang wanted to refuse, but the words changed abruptly when he spoke.

"Yu'er, why can't you even figure this out? Bao'er has been held captive by bandits for so long. Even if the leader of the bandits is a woman, it's impossible for the whole gang of bandits to be women. Your uncle After telling me, I also feel that our Jiang family should not be the butt of ridicule."

Seeing Mrs. Jiang winking at him, Jiang Yukang knew that he had no position to refuse, and this was what she had always hoped for. He didn't understand why there was a strong call in his heart to ask her to refuse, to say no, but Jiang Yukang Kang Wei lowered her head, but what she said was: "My child understands, let's do everything according to mother's wishes."

Jiang Yukang's answer fell into the ears of Ziyun who was hiding behind and eavesdropping verbatim. Ziyun smiled openly, almost beaming with joy, and immediately turned around and ran to tell Song Wanqing the good news.

Jiang Yukang looked a little pale, because he was worried that Mrs. Jiang would notice something strange, Jiang Yukang tried his best to calm down, and said, "Mother, uncle, if there is nothing else, my son will leave."

But Master Song shouted: "Yu'er, if you have time, go and take care of Wan Qing, because she is worried about Miss Lu's health and..."

"Don't worry, uncle, I'm going to see my cousin right now." In fact, I have to admire Jiang Yukang, no matter what the situation, his gestures are as usual.

Ziyun almost trotted all the way to Song Wanqing's boudoir, and couldn't wait to tell Song Wanqing the good news.

Song Wanqing put down the book in her hand, a little dissatisfied with Ziyun interrupting her reading so impatiently, so she said, "Ziyun, what is it that deserves your yelling?"

Ziyun lowered her voice, pretending to be mysterious and said: "Miss, your good fortune is coming soon."

Song Wanqing panicked, coughed lightly, and asked, "You girl, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Ziyun poured a glass of water and handed it to Song Wanqing, then continued: "Your servant is not talking nonsense, I heard with my own ears that Master Biao agreed to divorce Miss Lu."

After Song Wanqing heard it, she was really happy at first, but she frowned quickly and said, "Auntie and cousin are doing this, what can Sister Lu do?"

Ziyun only cares about the young lady in his heart, so he doesn't care about other people, so he said: "Although Miss Lu was captured by bandits and her reputation was ruined, she is beautiful and rich, and she will definitely find a good husband in the future. "

Song Wanqing let out a long sigh, and her eyes turned red. She felt sad for Lu Zhenbao and worried about Lu Zhenbao. "But Sister Lu has only her cousin in her eyes and heart... Now, because it is not her fault, she treats her like a shoe... How sad Sister Lu will be...Ziyun, cousin really You just agreed, didn't you say anything more?"

Ziyun scratched her head and said, "As soon as I heard that Young Master Biao was willing to break off the engagement with Lu Zhenbao, I rushed to tell Miss the good news. I don't know what else was said afterwards."

Song Wanqing looked at Ziyun strangely, her eyes were full of puzzlement, she asked: "Good news? How can this be good news for me, I sincerely hope that Sister Lu and Cousin can get married in the end , but now..."

Now it was Ziyun's turn to be puzzled, she was stunned, and said: "Miss, aren't you a handsome young master? The master asked you the day before yesterday if you would marry young master Biao as his wife, and you nodded. Now young master Biao has retired , won't Miss be able to marry Master Biao in a legitimate way?"

Song Wanqing was blushed by Ziyun's words, but she couldn't explain it. She recalled that her father came to her boudoir the day before yesterday. After caring about her body as usual, she suddenly changed the subject and said, "Ziyun , next year will be your coming-of-age ceremony, so it stands to reason that it's time to arrange a marriage for you."

Song Wanqing couldn't help but turn pale, she smiled weakly, and said, "Father, my daughter doesn't want to marry, she just wants to be by your side to fulfill my filial piety."

Master Song didn't take it seriously, only thinking that Song Wanqing was being shy, and said: "Girls are always going to marry, and I've thought about it for my father. Yes, being a father means kissing and kissing more.”

Song Wanqing looked at Master Song's face. She knew that her father had long thought of E Huang Nv Ying, and she instinctively wanted to refuse, but after another thought, she was going to marry after all. If she had to, Marrying my cousin is undoubtedly the best choice, so my face flushed and I whispered: "The marriage has always been decided by the parents, and the daughter has no opinion."

"Haha~~" Master Song stroked his beard and laughed out loud. He knew Song Wanqing would not refuse, so he said lovingly, "Daughter, you will be happy."

Song Wanqing's eyes were red, and she hugged Master Song's waist tightly, feeling an inexplicable guilt besides being touched.

At the door, Jiang Yukang heard Ziyun and Song Wanqing's last words in his ears. Only then did he realize that he had never understood Song Wanqing, who looked weak like himself. It turned out that she was also with his mother. Like my uncle, I never ask what I think in my heart.It was even hard for him to imagine what was going on in Song Wanqing's mind when she greeted Lu Zhenbao with a smile.

Only then did Ziyun see Jiang Yukang standing at the door, her heart skipped a beat, and she called out with some guilt: "Master Biao, when did you come?"

Jiang Yukang's complexion was very bad, he even got angry with Song Wanqing, perhaps without her, uncle would not have come up with such a way to get him to divorce, he felt that his mother would not have come up with such an idea.

Jiang Yukang frowned, and said angrily: "Cousin, now, as you wish, I have broken off the engagement with Bao'er, but you must know that my mother will never promise you to marry me!"

Song Wanqing was paused by Jiang Yukang's words. She knew that Jiang Yukang had misunderstood, but she couldn't explain it. She just felt wronged. She stood up and opened her mouth slightly, but she didn't know how to explain it.

Ziyun had always protected the lord, seeing that Song Wanqing had been wronged and was about to speak up for the lady, Jiang Yukang snorted coldly and walked away.
