Sun Yilin and Jingwan suddenly broke off the engagement. To be honest, many people felt that it was inconceivable. Even if the Shen family's young lady had caused a ruckus in the Luo family, wasn't this a "misunderstanding"? Breaking off the engagement in such a hurry, perhaps she was regretting it to death now. However, didn't this also mean that the Luo family's third young lady was an extremely petty person? No results were out yet. Such a jealous person, which mother-in-law would like her?
At the same time. "Speaking of which, this Luo family's third young lady is not only jealous, but also suspected of bringing misfortune to her husband. Her previous two fiancés, the engagement was so short, I'm afraid no one can compare to her."
To be honest, some time ago, Jingwan's limelight was too great, suppressing more than half of the capital's noble young ladies too miserably. Moreover, there were too many people who admired Sun Yilin, but in the end, she, who didn't have a high status, took advantage of it. It could be said that new enmity added to old hatred. Now that this engagement was broken off, naturally people were rejoicing in other people's misfortune. In addition, there were various kinds of conjectures. Once these conjectures were spoken out, coupled with the echo of the crowd and a little bit of intentional people adding fuel to the fire, it naturally formed a wave of rumours and slanders.
As for those who knew the real reason for breaking off the engagement, for some unknown reason, they didn't come out to help Jingwan say a word. Instead, it was Yuan Qiaoqiao and Zhou Yingshuang who were unbearably angry, but other than retorting a few words, "Jingwan is not that kind of person", there was no other way.
Originally, according to Jingwan's special status, even if the second engagement was broken off, it would be just right for some people to be satisfied and should be restored to the "sweet cake" status. But when these rumours came out, they had to consider carefully.
Hence, Sun Yilin didn't put himself in the teeth of the storm, but caused Jingwan to fall into a not small predicament.
Sun Yilin was somewhat regretful. Indeed, he shouldn't have broken off the engagement so quickly. He wanted to help, but how could he help? They had nothing to do with each other anymore. He had no right to get involved. Moreover, maybe because of him, things became more serious. Her mother kept saying that Jingwan was a vixen. It was hard to guarantee that others would not think so. That would be very bad for Jingwan's reputation. Therefore, she could only remain silent while being anxious.
And it was under such circumstances that Sun Yilin and Chen Zhengmin inadvertently met.
After not seeing each other for a while, Chen Zhengmin seemed to have become more mature. At this time, when they looked at each other, there was probably some indescribable complexity in their eyes. After all, they were once rivals in love. Also, there was probably some appreciation for each other. After all, they were both in the same boat. They all wanted to treat each other to a drink.
Instead of going to a tavern, he got someone to buy some wine and found a quiet place.
They didn't say anything. First, they each drank three glasses of wine. Then, they were somewhat speechless.
Once, when Jingwan and Chen Zhengmin were engaged, Sun Yilin felt that he was tripped up by other things and missed the opportunity. God gave him a chance, but unfortunately, he didn't hold on to it. When Chen Zhengmin learned that Sun Yilin also liked Jingwan, he also said that he wouldn't give him a chance. As a result, he was slapped in the face.
After a few more glasses of wine, Chen Zhengmin finally took the lead to speak, "Why did you and Cousin Wan break off the engagement?" If it was said that it was like the rumors outside, he absolutely wouldn't believe it. Not to mention his cousin, his grandaunt and granduncle were both extremely wise and strict people. How could they not distinguish between right and wrong and jump to conclusions without asking whether it was right or wrong?
Sun Yilin held the wine glass in silence. "Because of my mother."
Chen Zhengmin's mouth twitched sarcastically. When he thought of his grandfather, he didn't seem to have the right to laugh at him. Although his engagement with Cousin Wan was broken off, it had nothing to do with his grandfather. As the saying goes, every family has its own difficulties. If nothing happened here, there would be a fire somewhere else. However, he might be a little better than Sun Yilin. After all, he basically had the final say in their family now and there weren't so many restrictions.
The two of them talked about this and that, and somehow, they talked about Li Ruyu. Although it wasn't known to everyone, those who should know basically knew that Commandery Prince Cheng's demotion and Li Ruyu's seizure of the title were not small matters. It was just that there was no news of her marriage with Chen Zhengmin until now. "Are you going to drag it out like this?"
"Why? Do you feel bad? Well, she schemed against me because of you. "
Sun Yilin frowned. "Pretend I didn't ask." There were too many things happening recently and he hadn't seen his aunt for a while. He had no feelings for Li Ruyu, but he still had some feelings for his aunt. After all, his aunt had been good to him since he was young. He didn't care whether Li Ruyu was dead or alive. He just pitied all the parents in the world. However, when he thought of his mother, Sun Yilin poured another glass of wine.
However, they were all people who had suffered losses before. Even if they were disappointed, they still restrained themselves and didn't get drunk.
In the Luo family, Sun Yijia was the one who appeared to be most concerned about the rumors outside. She always felt guilty towards Jingwan, but when she saw that Jingwan didn't seem to care, she restrained herself a little. Whenever something happened, Jingwan would comfort her again and again. Instead, she caused trouble for Sister Wan.
"Sister-in-law, it's not convenient for me to go out these days. Let my third brother take you out for a walk." Jingwan suggested. Speaking of which, her third sister-in-law was much more depressed than her. It was not a good thing to go out for a walk to relieve her depression.
She didn't go out not because she was afraid of being pointed at, but because she didn't want to hear those words. It was really annoying. As for Ruan Fangfei's invitation, she wasn't someone who would refuse such an invitation. It just so happened that Jingwan didn't really want to interact with her.
"I don't want to go out. Besides, your third brother is busy."
"One day won't make a difference." Jingwan looked at Sun Yijia's silent face. "Sister-in-law, do you care that people are pointing at my third brother because of your face?"
Sun Yijia didn't care about her disfigurement, but she cared that Luo Jingbo was embarrassed because of her.
Jingwan suddenly smiled. "Sister-in-law, let me help you with your makeup."
Sun Yijia was puzzled. Why did she want to help her with her makeup all of a sudden? However, it was said that Sister Wan was the one who did Sister Hei's first makeup. It looked very beautiful and had a different style. She was a little interested and curious about what kind of makeup Sister Wan was going to do for her.
Jingwan didn't pull Sun Yijia back to the bedroom. Instead, she went to the study. To be more precise, she went to the painting room that was separated from the study for convenience. Then she asked the maid to get the makeup box.
Jingwan looked at Sun Yijia's face and thought for a while. Then she picked out a few kinds of paints from the many kinds of paints she had.
Anyone could tell what Jingwan was going to do. "Wan Wan, are you going to paint my face?"
"I haven't tried it before. It's a good opportunity to practice on your face." Jingwan smiled and there was obviously a little mischievous look on her face. She didn't look reliable at all. "Don't worry, Sister-in-law. The paints I picked are harmless. I promise that they won't damage your skin. Besides, even if they don't look good, you can just wash them off."
Sun Yijia wasn't worried at all. Instead, Jingwan was laughing so hard that it made her hair stand on end. Then she raised her head and closed her eyes.
Jingwan drew a plum blossom branch along the scar on Sun Yijia's face, from the bottom of the scar to the middle of her neck.
Because it was the first time she painted on her face, it took a lot of time. However, the result was quite good.
Not to mention the servants, even Sun Yijia couldn't believe her own eyes when she looked at herself in the glass mirror. The scars were basically covered by the flower branches, and they followed the lines. The treatment was very good. She didn't need to touch it with her hands. Just by looking at it, she couldn't see the scars at all. Not only that, it looked very beautiful.
Jingwan held Sun Yijia's chin and looked at her whole face. Then, she drew a few flying petals on the other side of her face. "Perfect."
Sun Yijia was overjoyed. However, the happiest people were her servants after this. In their eyes, Lin Mengya was going to wear a veil for the rest of her life. They didn't expect that she would be so beautiful one day. She was even more beautiful than before she got married.
"Alright, let's go back and take Third Elder Brother out for a walk. It's his business to paint in the future."
Sun Yijia didn't want to be teased by Jingwan. However, Jingwan forced her to leave.
The Begonia House regained its tranquility, and Jingwan began to find something to do.
Granny Gong knew that Jingwan wasn't affected. However, she felt that Jingwan seemed to be planning something. However, she didn't show any signs for the time being. Therefore, she didn't know what she was going to do.
Luo Jingbo was surprised when he saw Sun Yijia's makeup. However, he didn't look infatuated with her because she had become a great beauty again. It was obvious that Luo Jingbo didn't care much about her appearance. "Did you do it?"
Sun Yijia nodded with a smile.
"I will do it for you in the future." Luo Jingbo said without hesitation. It was obvious that this blockhead had learned a lot after he got married. Some of his skills were slowly being perfected. "You seem to be unhappy these days. Let's go out for a walk today. I don't think you will refuse. It's a good opportunity for this husband to go out and show off, and let them see how beautiful this young master's wife is. "
Sun Yijia was stunned. "Okay." It turned out that he wanted to take her out but was worried that she would be unwilling. In fact, he was as gentle and considerate as Sister Wan. As for showing off, he had the ability to do so. There was no need for him to show off.
Sun Yijia went to report to Old Madam Luo. Naturally, there was no reason for her to refuse such a thing.
Then, she went to inform Madame Zhang. There was no problem.
This was the first time the husband and wife went shopping together after they got married. They didn't have a destination. They just let the coachman drive the carriage slowly. They lifted the curtains and sat together. They looked out the window and whispered to each other. Their eyes were filled with happiness. If an outsider inadvertently saw them, they would think that they were a loving couple.
When they arrived at a bustling street, the two alighted from the carriage. Luo Jingbo naturally helped her down.
After that, even if there were servants following behind them, they wouldn't easily get too close. Luo Jingbo still protected Sun Yijia from time to time. Therefore, the two's posture was particularly intimate. Sun Yijia was a little embarrassed, but more than that, she felt sweet.
Luo Jingbo accompanied her as they strolled leisurely. When he realized that Sun Yijia didn't know many things, he acted as an omniscient and omnipotent commentator.
Sun Yijia was born in a noble family. She didn't have much contact with commoner things. In addition, she didn't have many friends. As for the clothes and jewelry that girls loved, they were often sent directly to the residence. Therefore, she rarely went out shopping. She was also not interested in this activity. To put it bluntly, Sun Yijia was actually a homebody.
However, her state of mind was different now. She felt that it was very interesting and she was very happy.
When they passed by a small stall selling masks, she reached out and took a mask and put it on Luo Jingbo's face.
There weren't many young couples who were together, but there were definitely a lot of them. At a glance, there wasn't a second couple who were as intimate as the two of them. In addition, Sun Yijia's special makeup attracted a lot of attention.
"Mother, look. Isn't that cousin?" A mother and daughter who had just come out of the jewelry shop said to the woman beside her.
The woman looked in the direction she was pointing and was silent for a moment. "It's her."
"Oh, I've never seen her smile so happily before. Could it be that Duke Dingguo's residence mistreated her?"
"Probably she's not used to living in luxury and prefers plain porridge and side dishes."
The young girl smiled in confusion. "Mother, we meet on the street. We should at least say hello." She pulled the middle-aged woman over. "Cousin."
Hearing the familiar voice, Sun Yijia subconsciously turned her head to look. The smile on her face subconsciously disappeared. "Aunt, cousin."
Previously, she saw Sun Yijia's side profile. Now that she saw her face, there wasn't a hideous and terrifying scar like she had expected. Instead, there was a branch of plum blossoms that was somewhat charming and enchanting. However, because of her cold temperament, the combination of enchanting and cold temperament weakened each other, making her appear more bright and moving.
Her smile couldn't help but stiffen. She thought that she had ruined her biggest asset, but she actually made up for it in another way, and it was even more perfect. The sense of superiority that she had maintained for a while was eaten away by jealousy all of a sudden.
Luo Jingbo followed Sun Yijia and bowed. He was neither close nor distant.
Both mother and daughter's gazes fell on him. Luo Jingbo was handsome. He might be a little casual usually, but when it was time to be serious, he would naturally be serious. His bearing and self-restraint were not bad. In addition, with the halo of the future "world's teacher", his attractiveness was not inferior to Sun Yilin's at all. Not knowing what to think, a certain young girl looked at Luo Jingbo and gradually blushed. She unconsciously became a little shy.
How could Sun Yijia not know how attractive Luo Jingbo was now? However, she didn't show any displeasure. She believed what he said. Since that was the case, it was useless no matter how much she coveted him. She could see him, but she couldn't touch him, let alone have him.
Sun Yijia chatted with the two of them. The mother and daughter had no intention of leaving. In the past, when they met, they would not be able to say more than three sentences before parting ways. It was fine if this cousin of hers had some thoughts, but aunt actually also …
Luo Jingbo stood quietly beside Sun Yijia. He didn't have any intention of leaving first. His eyes were slightly lowered, and he scrupulously adhered to the gentleman's etiquette. He didn't look at the girl in front of him.
In that girl's eyes, his gaze fell on Sun Yijia's side profile. No matter how beautiful it was, it was still painted. She didn't believe that in private, he could still stand Sun Yijia's face. The smile on her face became more and more flirtatious. "Cousin-in-law, I especially like fine brushwork. Can I find a private place and ask for a painting from you?"
Luo Jingbo finally looked at her, but his gaze was rather strange. "There are differences between men and women."
With one sentence, the other party's smile froze on her face.
Sun Yijia almost laughed out loud. He was really not polite and not tactful at all. He and Sister Wan were indeed brother and sister.
"Jingbo, you misunderstood. This girl's grandfather likes her."
"Oh." Luo Jingbo responded indifferently.
The middle-aged woman was very angry, but she couldn't say anything.
"I heard that aunt is sick, but I haven't had the chance to visit her personally. How is aunt?"
Sun Yijia was startled. She didn't know about this. Ding General Manor didn't even send anyone to send her a letter.
When she looked at Sun Yijia again, there was a different meaning in her eyes. Then, she carefully looked at Luo Jingbo. "Eh, cousin, could it be that you didn't go back to see her? You were so happy just now, so I thought aunt was fine."
This kind of low-level provocation was nothing to Luo Jingbo. "Yijia is very anxious, so I brought her out for a walk." No matter what she was anxious about. "I won't disturb aunt and cousin anymore." He reached out and gently pulled Sun Yijia to the side. "Didn't you just say that you wanted to buy something back?"
"Yes." Sun Yijia responded.
The two of them talked softly as they walked further and further away. Sun Yijia's people directly gave the mother and daughter a disdainful look.
"This matter should be your fifth brother's consideration. Don't take it to heart. I think it's not very serious. But since I know, I'll accompany you back to take a look tomorrow. You just need to remember that you are now a member of the Luo family. "
"Thank you, Jingbo."
"You and I are husband and wife. Our abilities are as one. There's no need to thank me."
Although this episode had happened, it didn't affect them much. The two of them continued to walk around.
Luo Jingbo accompanied her patiently at the clothes and jewelry shop, the rouge shop, and other places. He wasn't impatient at all. When she asked him, he also patiently gave his opinion. Although there might be differences in taste, it didn't matter.
When the two of them returned to the Luo family, they heard that four matchmakers had come to propose marriage to Jingwan.
They thought that the situation had taken a turn for the better. However, after learning about the situation of the four matchmakers, the couple trembled with anger. One of them was a bastard, one was an idiot, one was a bankrupt, and one even shamelessly said that he wanted to take Jingwan as his concubine.
What he said was quite good, but the meaning behind his words was that with the current reputation of the third daughter of the Luo family, it was already good enough that someone was willing to marry her. Moreover, she would bring bad luck to her husband. Even if he took her as his concubine, it would be dangerous.
Madam Luo sent people to kick them out. That was really big.
"Who is it? Who is so vicious to want to destroy Sister Wan!" Sun Yijia said hatefully.
