Chapter 4 Song Yuntang, you are crazy!

In the moment he was stunned, Song Yuntang had already stopped the ox cart and paid four copper coins to the driver, then turned to look at Song Jinsheng.

"If you want to go with me, you better be quick."

Song Jinsheng got on the ox cart and put the backpack beside him, holding it with his hands to prevent it from falling off. "It only takes more than half an hour to walk from our Rongshu Village to Cile Town. Four copper coins can buy two big meat buns. You really don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are if you don't manage the household."

Song Yuntang just glanced at him indifferently.

"You can go down."

Song Jinsheng raised his chin, "How can that be? You've already paid."

"Then stop complaining. After all, I didn't ask you to spend any money."

Holding the purse hidden under her clothes, Song Yuntang felt a little worried. She searched the house yesterday and found only forty-two copper coins in total. Excluding the four cents she had just paid, she had thirty-eight cents left.

Song Yuntang before really didn't leave himself any wiggle room at all.

You definitely can’t make much money by selling old clothes and jewelry. If you want to develop in the long run, you have to go back to your old business.

The ox cart was moving slowly and was bumpy.

By the time they arrived at Cile Town, Song Yuntang's butt was numb from the shaking.

She jumped off the ox cart, stretched her legs and feet, then looked up at the plaque in front of her that had the three big characters "Cile Town" engraved on it. She felt as if she was in another world.

Song Jinsheng stood behind her with a backpack on his back, looking at her expression with his brows slightly furrowed.

"It's useless to look at it more. Don't covet things that don't belong to you."

Song Yuntang turned his head and looked at him.

"You know what I'm thinking?"

Song Jinsheng snorted, "I'm not stupid."

"Not too smart." After saying this suddenly, Song Yuntang smiled and walked into Cile Town and headed towards East Street.

There is a market on East Street, which is crowded with people on weekdays. It is the most suitable place to sell clothes and jewelry.

After Song Jinsheng recalled what Song Yuntang said, he trotted to catch up with her, "How dare you say I'm not smart? You're not much better than me."

Song Yuntang said calmly, "It doesn't matter if I'm not that good, as long as I'm better than you."

Song Jinsheng was choked by her words and didn't know how to start for a long time, but he was not angry with her. The number of times this sister had spoken to him in the past three years added up to less than the amount of time it took to slap someone in the face.

This is the first time that I can talk to him so much today.

Moreover, she didn't seem as conservative as he had imagined. After the conversation just now, he even found her quite interesting.

…

As soon as the two arrived at East Street, they met a familiar figure. It was Lin Gengshi, whom Song Yuntang had called "second brother" for thirteen years. In his hand, he was holding a piece of freshly baked jujube paste cake.

When Song Yuntang was at the Lin family, she also loved to eat jujube paste cakes. The jujube paste cakes at the East Street market tasted the best, especially those freshly baked in the morning with a strong jujube aroma. With a portion of jujube paste cake and a cup of Longjing tea, she could stay in front of the Moon Cave Gate for half a day, watching the clouds roll by, the rockery and the fish in the pond, with the occasional breeze blowing by, making her feel refreshed.

At that time, the date paste cakes she ate were bought by Lin Gengshi himself in East Street.

Now things have changed and people have changed. Fortunately, Song Yuntang has a new soul in his body, otherwise the original owner would feel very aggrieved when seeing this scene.

Song Yuntang didn't want to meet him and was about to turn around to avoid him when Lin Gengshi's eyes happened to look over here.

Song Yuntang pretended not to see him and turned away.

Seeing this, Lin Gengshi chased after him in a few steps.

"Song Yuntang, wait a minute."

Song Jinsheng looked at the girl beside him, his brows furrowed as if water could be squeezed out of them, "Are you still insisting that you are not here for the Lin family?"

Song Yuntang said calmly, "If I say it was an accidental encounter, would you believe me?"

"The key is do you believe it yourself?"

"Yes, this is the truth." Song Yuntang turned and nodded slightly towards Lin Geng who was catching up with her. Unlike the close dependence in the past, her expression today was extremely cold. "Meet Mr. Lin, the Second Master."

Although Song Yuntang was sent back to the Song family, he never changed the way he addressed the Lin family. When Lin Gengshi suddenly heard the name "Second Young Master Lin", his brows furrowed.

Then, a word popped into his mind - playing hard to get.

After he came to his senses, he became disgusted with Song Yuntang again. Zhao'er was right, it was easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Song Yuntang had been pampered by the Lin family for more than ten years. How could he easily give up the opportunity to return to the Lin family?

"Why are you here again?" There was obvious impatience in his tone.

Song Yuntang seemed to have heard some funny joke.

"What Second Master Lin said, I may not be able to come to Cile Town?"

Lin Gengshi looked at her coldly, "Didn't I tell you last time not to come to town? Now that you're back at the Song family, be more obedient. Zhao'er is much more sensible than you. After returning to the Lin family, you will only go to the Song family if you really miss them. On weekdays, you should stay at home and learn the rules."

Song Yuntang did not comment.

"So Mr. Lin, please go back and accompany your sensible sister Zhao'er. I have something else to do, so I won't accompany you any longer." She looked around, pointed to an empty place, turned around and smiled at Song Jinsheng, "Second brother, shall we go there?"

When Song Jinsheng heard Song Yuntang calling him "second brother" in person, and in front of Lin Gengshi, he felt secretly happy.

He looked proudly in the direction of Lin Gengshi, then followed Song Yuntang to the open space she pointed to.

“Here I come.”

When Song Yuntang no longer paid attention to Lin Geng, he took off the backpack from Song Jinsheng's back, took out an old cloth and put it on the ground, then took out the items inside one by one and laid them flat.

Then she began to shout, "The finest silks and satins, new in color, all for cheap."

Song Yuntang had been a lady in the Lin family for more than ten years. Her aunt, the teacher in the family, always required her not to show her teeth when smiling, not to show her knees when sitting, not to shake her head when walking, and not to lean against the door when standing.

She learned the rules very well and spoke softly when she was outside. The scene of hawking things on the street not only surprised Song Jinsheng, but also stunned Lin Gengshi.

He stepped forward and grabbed Song Yuntang's arm, his tone filled with anger.

"Song Yuntang, are you crazy?"

"I don't understand what Second Master Lin said." Song Yuntang freed his arm and pointed at the clothes in front of him, "But Master, do you think these things are from the Lin family? Isn't it appropriate to sell them at the market?"

Lin Gengshi did not answer her question, but asked her instead, "Do you know that your way of wanting attention is really disgusting? If you want to play hard to get, you have to know the limit. If you really want to go back to the Lin family, I can take you there now!"

"First of all, I don't think I want to get other people's attention." Song Yuntang looked at him indifferently, his posture upright, "Secondly, I have no intention of going to the Lin family."

"Second Master Lin also said that since I have returned to the Song family, I will be a member of the Song family from now on and have nothing to do with the Lin family. The Lin family is a wealthy family and they have extremely high expectations for their children, but Second Master Lin is also clear about the conditions of the Song family. If I still act like before, I will not understand the situation and it will not do me any good."

After a pause, he continued, "But I still want to thank the Lin family for raising me. If the Lin family needs anything, I will repay them, but right now I am dealing with my own private affairs. Mr. Lin and I are not related, so I hope you won't interfere."
