Chapter 254 Why is it different?
The next day.
Jiang family.
After Song Wan had breakfast with Jiang's parents, they discussed the expansion of Mingxin Hall.
After everything was discussed clearly, Jiang Zheng spoke in a good mood.
"I heard that Zuixianlou has a new chef from Jiangnan. His crab meat lion's head is really good. It was Qiaoqiao's favorite. Qiaoqiao is home today, so why don't we go and try it together?"
After hearing from their daughter that the Queen Mother and the Regent had not had any rift over the death of Second Miss Su, they let it go.
It's just that his daughter has been away from Beijing for five or six days, and has been running around outside for the past few days since she came back. Today, he finally sees her staying at home peacefully, and Jiang Zheng just wants to take this opportunity to spend some time with his daughter.
after all……
My daughter might be getting married soon...
After listening to Jiang Zheng's words, Liu understood her husband's thoughts.
Isn't she the same? Although they are now in the capital, a married daughter can't always run back to her parents' home, especially when she is married to a family as prestigious as the Prince Regent's Palace.
So after the initial joy faded, all that remains is reluctance.
"Well, come to think of it, your father and I have been in the capital for so long, but we haven't had any proper shopping yet."
"It will soon be colder. After dinner, let's go to Jinluoge and buy you some clothes."
"I see that your tastes seem to have changed. You like brighter colors. The clothes I brought from the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion are too plain. I guess you don't like them anymore."
"Besides...it's time for you to start embroidering your wedding gown. Although the wedding date hasn't been set yet, Mother sees that the Regent is not young anymore, so the wedding shouldn't be delayed too long."
"Even when I married your father, I spent a whole year embroidering the wedding dress. It's definitely a good idea to prepare it early."
How could Song Wan not understand Jiang Zheng and Liu's thoughts? Ever since she knew that she was engaged to Jun Jiuchen, Liu often called Luoluo and Hongxiu to her side and asked about the rules of marrying a daughter in the capital.
I was afraid that she would lose face.
But she was quite touched by the attentive treatment Jiang and Liu gave her.
When she heard the three words "embroidered wedding dress", her scalp tightened.
Let her embroider the wedding dress?
Isn't this going to kill her?
Besides... with her embroidery skills, I'm afraid she can't wear it out.
Besides, although Jiang Wanqiao's embroidery skills were not particularly wonderful, they were still far from the reach of people with "extraordinary talents" like her, and might even cause some unnecessary trouble.
Song Wan thought about it and shook her head secretly in her heart.
No, she had to quickly get a wedding dress and have Jun Jiuchen send it over with the betrothal gifts.
After making up his mind, Song Wan took Liu's arm and said obediently.
"Okay, I'll listen to my parents."
……
Because it was a spur-of-the-moment decision, when they arrived at Zuixianlou, it was already near noon and the private room was already full of people.
However, the Jiang family was a merchant family and did not have so many rules. The three of them did not want to spoil the fun, so they chose a seat by the inner window in the lobby and sat down without too much hesitation.
Then the three of them chatted and laughed while waiting for about two quarters of an hour, and the dishes were served one by one.
The rich color and the fragrance filling the lobby make one's mouth water.
As Song Wan continued to chat with Jiang Zheng and Liu, she looked at the plates piled up like a mountain in front of her, feeling a little amused and helpless.
Even though her belly was bulging, the smile on Song Wan's face came from the bottom of her heart.
Although her biological mother passed away early, her father always held her in his heart since she was a child. She never felt that she lacked anything compared to others, and she was very grateful for everything she had.
But in the past six months since she came to the Jiang family, Liu has arranged everything for her, no matter how big or small.
Not to mention the changes in her preference for clothing colors, he even remembered her menstrual period clearly and personally made ginger tea for her based on the date.
Only then did she realize that there were still some differences between her mother and father.
only……
Looking at Liu and Jiang Zheng in front of her, she couldn't help but think of Jiang Wanqiao from Prince Huai's Mansion.
Although she told her father that if she had not been instigated by Yun Zheng to gather information for Prince Huai's Mansion, he would have tried to be nice to her.
But this...
It's just a delaying tactic.
If Prince Huai's Mansion convicts her of treason in the future, she, as the Crown Prince's Consort, will not be able to escape the charges...
But now she has been deceived by Yun Zheng, and she dare not talk to her openly.
She knew that Jiang Wanqiao was not a bad person, but she was too soft-hearted. After the oppression of the Pei family and the betrayal of Pei Qingyan, she chose to punish herself by hanging herself.
He was not sure if, if he told her the truth, she would affect the overall situation at a critical moment because she couldn't let go of Yun Zheng.
at the moment……
We can only take it one step at a time.
Song Wan thought about it and picked up some food for Liu and put it in her bowl.
"Mom, don't just focus on me, eat too..."
……
I just don’t know if it’s just a coincidence.
Jiang Wanqiao, who was being thought of by Song Wan, was currently sitting in a private room on the second floor of Zuixianlou.
On the table, there was a plate of crab meat lion's head that had only been eaten once.
She didn't know what she was thinking at this moment, she just stared out the window blankly, her eyes unfocused.
Xing'er, who was standing by, saw that she hadn't touched her chopsticks for a long time and couldn't help but ask.
"Princess, didn't you come here specifically to try this crab meat lion's head? But it doesn't taste right?"
Jiang Wanqiao's thoughts were disrupted by Xing'er's words, and she just spoke.
"Nothing, I just have no appetite."
Although she said nothing was wrong, she still looked a little unhappy.
Seeing this, Xing'er didn't ask any more questions. Thinking that the Crown Prince's Consort had just returned from the Prime Minister's Residence yesterday, and might still be worried about Prime Minister Song's injury, she just spoke.
"Then I'll have someone bring some appetizers."
Jiang Wanqiao's mind was already wandering somewhere at this moment, and she just casually said "hmm".
After Xing'er left, she turned her attention to the crab meat lion head on the table again.
This dish is actually very authentic, similar to what she had eaten in Jiangnan.
But when she put it in her mouth, it didn't taste right at all.
Jiang Wanqiao knew that there was nothing wrong with the dish.
But...
she was.
Thinking about the conversation between him and Song Yan that she heard outside her husband's side window after she returned from the Prime Minister's Mansion yesterday, Jiang Wanqiao couldn't help but feel a pang of fear again.
She originally thought that God saw that she had died unfairly in her previous life, so he gave her a chance to start over and make up for the regrets in her heart.
Therefore, she was given the identity of the legitimate daughter of the prime minister, who could walk freely in Shangjing for three years after being looked down upon because of her background and living cautiously in Shangjing for three years.
And because she met the wrong person and was let down by Pei Qingyan, so...
She also received a gentle and considerate husband whose heart and eyes were filled with her.
She had made up her mind to cherish this opportunity given to her by God and start over.
Therefore, she took care of the internal affairs of Prince Huai's Mansion more attentively than before, trying to keep everything in order and not let her husband down.
She also learned the lesson from her previous life and was no longer so weak. She firmly suppressed the "evil-minded" Miss Song San in her husband's words and prevented her from causing trouble in the mansion.
Although, she occasionally worried that her personality was quite different from that of the former eldest daughter of the Song family, which might arouse suspicion.
But until yesterday, everything was going smoothly.
Even when she returned to the Prime Minister's residence, Prime Minister Song treated her very well, but he just felt sorry for her suffering and loss of memory.
After passing this level, she was completely relieved...
She thought so, after all, her body was the real Miss Song, who could say it was fake?
Can be biased.
Just at this time.
She heard that conversation.
original……
The third Miss Song married into Prince Huai's mansion, not because she plotted against her husband, but because they both set up a scheme together.
And the reason why my husband married Miss Song was just for the power of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Even... even the death of the real Miss Song was premeditated...
Although, my husband also said that although it was a calculation at the beginning, he later fell in love with Miss Song, so all his feelings for her who has become Miss Song should also be true...
But my husband...
But he is the famous prince of Huai Wang in Shangjing.
During her time as Jiang Wanqiao, she had heard everything about him from other people countless times.
Especially Pei Yujiao.
In the mouths of Pei Yujiao and those people.
My husband is a man of both military and literary talents, a modest gentleman, and the best man in all of Beijing.
It was precisely because of these halos and assumptions that when faced with such a person who was so good to her, she allowed her heart, which had already been hurt once by Pei Qingyan, to fall again.
But why...
What if he were different?
