Song Ning looked up and saw that it was Xie Linzhou.
"Thank you... what brings you here?"
Xie Linzhou glanced at her sideways and said, "What? Did I ruin your plans?"
Song Ning's lips twitched slightly. This lunatic hadn't even been dealt with yet, and now another one had arrived.
Young Master Jin looked between the two of them and smiled, "Young Master, please don't misunderstand, Miss Song and I have nothing going on."
Song Ning nodded, "That's right, that's right."
"It's just that I have a one-sided crush on her; Miss Song doesn't feel the same way about me."
Song Ning was exasperated: "Young Master Jin, isn't that...?"
“Miss Song, I understand. Don’t worry, I won’t bother you.”
After saying that, he turned and left with a very nonchalant air.
"Why..."
Xie Linzhou looked at her without hiding anything: "You can't bear to part with it?"
Song Ning glanced at the purse in Xie Linzhou's hand; the contents hadn't been returned yet.
He reached out to snatch it back, but Xie Linzhou dodged to the side.
"Tsk, that belongs to someone else."
She originally intended to accept it first, hold it in her hand for a while, and then return it to him, so that it would be considered as if she had accepted it.
"This general has taken a liking to it, so I can only ask that you part with it."
...Are you out of your mind? This is a purse given to me by another man. Xie Linzhou likes it?
What kind of hobby is this?
On second thought, Song Ning couldn't help but smile: "Alright, since the general likes it, keep it and preserve it well."
Xie Linzhou should understand what it means when a man gives a woman a purse, right?
Now you insist on taking this purse from her, is that what she means?
Xie Linzhou has seen all kinds of purses, why does he have to snatch them from her?
Tsk, tsk tsk, Song Ning felt she had discovered a big secret.
Looking the person in front of me up and down, I hadn't noticed before, but now I see that she actually looks a bit like a sister.
Xie Linzhou frowned. What was this girl thinking about now?
Patting Xie Linzhou on the shoulder, Song Ning said righteously, "General, don't worry, I understand. Since you like it, I'll give it to you. I will definitely not tell anyone."
Xie Linzhou's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Song Ning, you have some nerve."
Song Ning took a step back and shrank her neck. How could she have forgotten Xie Linzhou's identity again?
"General Xie, I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."
Just as she turned to run, Xie Linzhou grabbed her from behind and handed her the purse in his hand: "Go throw it away."
"ah?"
"Can't understand me? If that's the case..."
"I understand." Song Ning quickly took the purse, walked to a secluded spot, and threw it away.
As the purse was thrown away, Xie Linzhou was able to breathe easily, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up. When he saw Song Ning return, he lowered his head to hide it.
Finally, they could leave. Song Ning sat in the cart, which rumbled and chugged towards the outskirts of the city. Outside, Li Xingwang and Shunzi sat on the edge of the cart, glancing back every now and then.
Li Xingwang whispered, "Er Ya, General Xie's carriage is still following behind."
Song Ning lay lazily in the car: "Don't worry about it, let's just go our own way."
After a bumpy four-hour journey, we finally returned to Tianxiang County.
When Song Ning got off the bus, her legs were so weak that she couldn't stand up, and Song Dahai had to carry her back.
Xie Linzhou's carriage stopped not far away. He lifted the curtain and glanced at the Song family. He took out a small bottle from a box in the carriage and said, "Give this to the Song family and give it to Song Ning. It will make him feel better."
"yes."
In her hazy state, Song Ning seemed to sense waves of people coming and going at home, but she was so dizzy that she dared not open her eyes. Later, she thought she heard her mother's voice and that she was being fed something.
After taking the medicine, she felt much better. She saw Liu Yuelan sitting beside her, helping her up and asking with concern, "Er Ya, are you still feeling unwell?"
"Much better."
"General Xie's medicine is really effective. You should thank him another day. I've made you something to eat. Sit down for a while, and I'll go get it."
Liu Yuelan placed the food on the kang table and took care of her daughter's meal.
Before Song Ning could ask about the medicine, she looked up and asked, "Mother, are you alright?"
Liu Yuelan smiled calmly: "It's alright, it's not a big deal. Anyway, for a family like that, not being their biological child might be a good thing..."
I heard that Old Mrs. Liu was making a scene and wanted to leave, but Liu Yuelan stopped her.
Song Ning held Liu Yuelan's hand and said, "Mother, don't worry, Grandma and we will always be family."
If Old Mrs. Liu really leaves the Song family and returns to the Liu family, will she still be able to survive?
After dinner, Song Ning sat down at the table and started writing and drawing again, when Xiao Cui and Jiang Yongde came in.
"Why are you two here? Is something wrong at the workshop?"
The two looked rather grim. They exchanged a glance, and Xiao Cui nudged Jiang Yongde, saying, "Why don't you say it?"
Jiang Yongde hesitated before speaking: "Er Ya, oh no, boss, we didn't keep a close eye on the workshop."
Song Ning put down her pen and asked, "What exactly happened?"
“A few days ago, when I was inspecting the workshop after everyone had finished work, I found that there was less pork in the workshop, but I didn’t see anyone take the pork away. Boss, please punish me.”
Xiao Cui quickly said, "Master, Brother Jiang also told me about this. We've been paying attention, but we haven't found anyone taking anything away. We didn't dare to alert them for fear of making things worse, so we were thinking of waiting for you to come back before we discussed it."
Has anything been lost in the last few days?
"Yes, but we've lost less in the last few days. We lost more in the days right after the owner left. We've calculated it, and we've lost a total of ten catties of pork."
