Chapter 36 A surprising glimpse
Zhang Xing's eyes seemed to be filled with poison. She stared at Zhang Ju viciously and then went back to the backyard.
"What are you looking at? If you don't do anything for the day, don't keep thinking about being lazy."
Zhang Ju said this with a guilty conscience. He was also a little afraid of his brother's eyes. It was too creepy, okay?
Song Yi returned to the village with the silver and money, and Song Yu had just regained consciousness from her grandmother's study.
This money can last for a while, so I don’t have to go to the town to find Song Jushu for food and daily necessities for the time being.
Doesn't the village spend money? That's impossible. In Song Yu's house, spending money is necessary. You have to give Song Yu good food and precious medicinal herbs.
"This is good. With eighty taels of silver, Jing'er and Xin'er can also make a set of clothes."
"Master, why do you make clothes?"
Song Yi asked curiously.
"We are going to visit your father in mid-June, and you haven't worn your new clothes much this year, so I won't make any for you."
Song Yi was confused. Why did she go to her grandfather's house? Not only was the place small, but her cousins were also like hungry ghosts. They were always eager to rummage through the things her father brought back.
She really didn't like going, but it seemed like it was grandma's decision.
At noon, Ma Taozhi was absent-mindedly making clothes for Song Yu. He was thinking about how to break up with Ma Taoguo when he got back, and he also wanted his mother to guarantee it.
Tell Ma Taoguo to never come looking for him, because he ran away on his own in the first place. Although he also contributed to the situation, it was him who was fooled by Zhang Xiu's words.
Besides, he fell in love with Song Zhining at first sight, so don't blame him for setting a trap for Ma Taozhiguo.
“Hiss, hiss, hiss…”
He wasn't paying attention and the needle pricked his finger, drawing a drop of blood. He put the blood in his mouth and sucked it, then he saw Song Yu looking at him intently.
"What's wrong, Sister Yu?"
Song Yu really wanted to know how her father would deal with her adopted brother when he returned this time.
"Look at me, our Sister Yu can't even speak! Dad is also stupid, is he hungry?"
As he said that, he undressed and prepared to feed Song Yu. His milk supply was getting less and less now. After about this month, Song Yu would be able to eat complementary food.
Then her father's milk supply will stop and her breasts will return to normal, and Song Yu will no longer need to drink milk.
Song Yu really found it difficult to understand this matter. This world where women are supreme is truly magical.
Song Yu was not hungry, but the milk was at her lips, so she would eat it if she didn't. She was still a child! Eating more would be nutritious.
Seeing that the weather was good, Song Jing took a basin to the river at the entrance of the village to wash clothes. She was lucky today as she happened to meet Song Yue.
"Brother Jing, long time no see, are you willing to come out and meet people?"
Song Jing listened to his joke and smiled.
"You are such a talker. You won't have time to come out until the handkerchief is embroidered!"
Speaking of this, Song Yue looked a little unhappy. He worked hard for a year, but his grandfather didn't give him any tips.
Two people started washing clothes by the river. More and more people came and went, including some girls fishing in the river.
"Hey! Isn't that Song Yi's brother?"
A short and ugly woman said this.
One of the women was tall, dark and a little plump. She squinted her eyes and took a look.
"How old is he?"
"What?"
"I asked you how old she was."
The slightly plump woman said again impatiently.
"Almost eleven this year."
Song Chen touched her head. She couldn't understand why this little ancestor would ask how old Song Yi's brother was, but it didn't affect her praising Song Jing at all.
"Hey! Sister Huarong, let me tell you, although the people in our Luoshan Village are not as good as those in your Huashan Village, this guy is pretty good."
Hua Rongyu didn't touch him anymore. There was one river connecting four villages, and there were girls playing in any faraway places. For them, the road was no problem.
She found a place with a tree by the river to settle down, rolled up her trouser legs, her face was dark, but her legs were really white!
"Sister Huarong, are we not going to slack off?"
There were two girls she brought with her around, and one of them, the thin one, asked.
"Stop touching me for now and take a break."
"All right!"
Afterwards, under a big tree by the river, four girls around twelve or thirteen years old were chatting.
Hua Rong's eyes occasionally glanced towards where Song Jing was. She was thirteen years old and had never seen such a pretty and elegant boy before when she came to the river.
Song Jing and Song Yue were still talking about the patterns and designs of the embroidered handkerchiefs, and they didn't notice that someone was watching them in the dark.
Besides, he couldn't see clearly on the other side of the river, and he had to wash clothes, so he didn't have the energy to look elsewhere.
Although Song Chen is from Luoshan Village, her brother was lucky enough to marry into Huashan Village. If it weren't for her brother contributing to the family every year, their family would definitely not have survived last year's severe winter.
And she also likes to play with the girls in Huashan Village, mainly because they are rich and nice people.
"Why haven't I seen him before?"
Hua Rong intentionally or unintentionally asked Song Chen for information.
"Hey! It's normal that you haven't seen him. Let me tell you, Song Jing is a man that few people in the village have seen. Except for his family, almost everyone who was born with him when he was a child doesn't remember what he looks like."
What Song Chen said was not an exaggeration, it was really like that. Song Jing didn't like going out, and at home, except for embroidery, he could do almost all the housework.
Hua Rong's eyes darkened for a moment, and somehow she felt a little relieved.
"I saw him go out recently. I wonder if his family is planning to arrange a marriage for him."
Song Chen's words made Hua Rong stand up suddenly.
"Sister Huarong, what's wrong with you?"
This sudden appearance almost scared her to death, okay? And the expression on his face was a little gloomy, which looked scary.
"Oh! It's nothing. I just suddenly remembered that there are some things I haven't done at home. I'm ready to go home."
Seeing Song Jing leaving with the wooden basin, she had no interest in fishing in the river anymore and simply went home.
"Okay, I'll go back today too. I'll go stop the water flow later! My rice seedlings are almost dry too."
After Song Chen walked away leisurely, the two girls beside Hua Rong stood up.
"Miss, let's go home! The eldest master is back, and he's waiting for you to come back and see you!"
"I see."
Hua Rong was in a very heavy mood. Her two sisters had no idea what was wrong with her. She was in a good mood when she came out, but why was she so gloomy now?
However, as they were from the same village and were servants, they did not dare to ask so many questions.
Song Jing had no idea that Hua Rong's stunning glance at him would change his life.
After drying the clothes, he ran to the kitchen to get some warm water for Song Yu, which she had to drink on time every day.
Looking at her second brother's gentle smile, Song Yu couldn't help but sigh that such a man was really virtuous.
Looking at her second brother, she wanted to find someone like him when she grew up.
"Sister Yu, come and drink some water. It's not hot. Second brother tried it."
Pouring the water into a cup specially made for Song Yu, he carefully fed her the water.
When Song Xin saw this scene as soon as he came back, he felt sad. Alas! His second brother was no longer his only second brother.
From now on, his sister will be the first in his heart.
