Chapter 79: Scrapyard
The little old lady who was nearby touched Heidan's head.
"Fortunately, Heidan has left that evil-hearted grandmother and is living a happy life with Song Zhiqing."
"But Song Zhiqing, you have to be careful. This old lady Lin is a shameless deadbeat. Be careful that she comes to ask you for money or something else."
Song Wei nodded: "I know."
Heidan grabbed Song Wei's clothes tightly, as if only this could give him a sense of security.
Now he was really afraid of returning to the Lin family again.
Old Mrs. Lin, whose secrets were exposed, went mad. She didn't care about the pain in her body and cursed the second brother Lin's wife. She used all kinds of dirty words and a bunch of blocked words, and no one could persuade her.
In the end, she didn't know whether it was because of tiredness or pain, but she couldn't catch her breath and fainted.
Now it was finally quiet, and the Lin family hurriedly carried her onto the ox cart and left for the hospital in the city.
The captain glanced into the Lin family's house. It seemed as if old man Lin didn't hear such a loud noise and he hasn't come out yet.
He was very angry. This old man Lin was really...
Song Wei was also puzzled.
"Didn't they say that Old Man Lin was afraid of Old Lady Lin? Why do I feel that his reaction is a bit strange?"
She said this in a low voice, but Aunt Wang next to her still heard it.
"Hey... Old Man Lin is like this. He doesn't care about anything. He is afraid of trouble and is very lazy. He will slack off whenever he can after work."
Aunt Wang's tone seemed to show her disdain for Old Man Lin.
"It is also because of this that the Lin family has been tormented by Old Lady Lin. Old Man Lin only cares about himself. As long as he is not involved, he would not be too sad about the death of his own son."
Song Wei: ...Is there no normal person in the Lin family?
No wonder Old Man Lin never showed up when Old Mrs. Lin’s family was making trouble.
But as long as he doesn't bother her, she still likes Old Man Lin's personality better than Old Lady Lin's.
The crowd dispersed and Song Wei took Heidan home for dinner.
Shuanzi also followed happily and finally got some candies as a reward for completing Song Wei's task.
"Good job, keep going next time."
Shuanzi was so happy that he bared his teeth: "Don't worry, Boss. If you have anything in the future, just call me. I promise to arrange everything clearly!"
You are so passionate about stuttering.
After Shuanzi left, Li Juan came to call her and Heidan to have dinner.
"What happened at the village chief's house?"
Li Juan was an honest person. She didn't go out to eat melons but worked hard to earn work points.
She only heard that something happened in the village chief's family, and she didn't know that something happened to the Lin family later.
Before Song Wei could say anything, Gao Le and Zhao Su came over shamelessly with their bowls in hand.
"Let's have some free food."
They both held several large steamed buns, which were mixed with some coarse grains but mostly made of white flour.
He was holding some flour in his hand, which was considered as food expenses.
Li Juan seemed to have anticipated this and cooked more dishes.
While the few people were eating, Gao Le and Zhao Su excitedly told Li Juan what happened in the village chief's family and the Lin family. Their actions and body language were very rich, which made Li Juan stunned.
She regretted not going to see it.
“So many things happened today.”
"That's not the case."
Gao Le stuffed something in his mouth and said, "This countryside is really lively. People in our compound love to save face. If something happens, they always quarrel in their own home. There has never been a time when the whole village would go to someone else's house to join in the fun."
Now the two of them no longer cry and shout about going back every day.
It’s just…being trained every morning is really tiring.
Thinking of this, Gao Le secretly glanced at Song Wei.
Song Wei: "What's up?"
Gao Le shook his head frantically.
This Song Zhiqing looks gentle and quiet, but in fact he is more brutal than his grandfather!
What happened that day spread the next day.
Those who didn't go to the scene regretted it so much after hearing what others said about it that they slapped their thighs.
The most exciting story was told by a few old ladies who went to the attic to watch the show.
Every day, Song Wei could see little old ladies holding small bamboo baskets filled with shoe or clothing fabrics under the jujube tree at the entrance of the village, threading needles while talking about what they saw that day.
The others who didn't go pricked up their ears and listened attentively, slapping their thighs from time to time.
"Why didn't I go?"
Song Wei couldn't help but laugh. These old ladies were really funny.
"Song Zhiqing, are you guys out jogging again?"
Seeing Song Wei and the few people following behind her, she greeted the little old ladies she was familiar with.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Song Wei nodded: "Running is good for your health."
After saying hello to them, Song Wei took his people and left.
The old ladies' topic immediately shifted to Song Wei and the others.
"What do you think? Isn't it tiring enough to work up and down the mountain every day? Isn't your health getting better now?"
Aunt Wang: "Song Zhiqing did run a lot, but the two male educated youths either followed Song Zhiqing to run a few laps every morning or stayed in the educated youths' yard all day. Why did they get tired?"
"Hey, tell me, do Song Zhiqing and Li Zhiqing have any relationship with those two male Zhiqings? Otherwise, how can they be together every day?"
Aunt Wang and others who had a good relationship with Song Wei immediately came to her defense.
"That's impossible. How can we not see that there's something going on with our eyes? And this is so open and aboveboard. Who doesn't meet secretly when there's something going on?"
"That's right. I think they just have good personalities and can get along well. Gao Zhiqing calls Song Zhiqing "sister" all the time. If they really have a relationship, they wouldn't call her that."
"And considering Song Zhiqing's strength, it would take a lot of courage for him to like her."
The old ladies also thought of how every time Song Wei went down the mountain, he had to carry a lot of things on his back and in his hands, which looked heavy.
Then they nodded heavily.
"Too."
When the other old ladies heard this, they stopped talking and continued with the previous topic.
Song Wei had no idea that rumors were almost spreading about her again.
The weather has turned completely cold and the work in the fields has been almost done. Now almost every household is urging people to go up the mountain to collect firewood.
Song Wei did not go up the mountain today. She went to the county town and sold the herbs she had collected to the hospital.
Because of the note from the doctor, Song Wei easily sold all the herbs.
The most precious ones are the wolfberries, a plant of elderberry, and a Ganoderma lucidum.
This is what she encountered when she went deep into the mountains.
Including other herbs that were cheap but in large quantities, Song Wei earned a total of eighty-seven yuan.
The doctor who bought the herbs said to her, "You didn't handle some of the herbs well and wasted them. Otherwise you could make more money. You can send them here next time you have herbs."
The truth is that there are too few people selling herbal medicine now, and there are too many patients in the hospital, so they are running out of medicine.
Song Wei nodded: "Thank you."
After getting the money, Song Wei did not go back immediately, but went to the scrap yard. She wanted to see if there were any books specifically on how to deal with herbs. She only knew how to dry herbs, but some herbs needed special treatment before they could be dried.
"Uncle, I'll pick up some newspapers to paste on the wall. Please help me."
Song Wei stuffed two cents and a few candies into the hands of the old man guarding the scrap yard.
The old man glanced at her and put away his things: "Go ahead, and show me what you have chosen."
Song Wei thanked him again and went into the scrap yard.
There are a lot of things in the scrapyard, broken tables, chairs, cabinets, old newspapers, various books, etc.
You can pick up some things here, but it’s not worth taking back things like tables and chairs with missing legs.
It's okay to just pick up a bargain, no one is stupid, so why would you really put those good things here for people to pick up?
