Xu Sanniang and Song Tingzhi talked for a while and then decided to go down the mountain. She was worried about the old man and the two children at home.
Xu Sanniang stood up and opened the bag she brought with her, which contained some steamed buns and clothes.
"Just leave these things here. I see your injuries are almost healed, so I'll go back first. I'm worried about your sister and brother taking care of your father. Just knowing that you're okay is enough."
"I'm going back to discuss the date with your father and prepare everything. I can't let Chengcheng down. You have to take good care of her in the mountains. You're getting married soon, so you have to be careful about everything, okay?"
Xu Sanniang instructed Song Tingzhi word by word, asking him to treat Jiang Cheng well.
"I see, mother. Don't worry. Would you like to have a meal here before leaving?"
Song Tingzhi followed Xu Sanniang's steps as she walked out, responding from time to time.
"No, no, I'm going back!"
"Then I won't keep you."
"Come on, go back! Be careful when you go into the mountains next time, and don't go too far. Your father is in much better health now, and the family isn't too worried anymore, so take care of yourself!"
Xu Sanniang walked to the door, stopped, and gave instructions.
"Chengcheng, I'm going back first. I'll have Ting go down the mountain in a couple of days to tell you the date."
"Um."
Xu Sanniang explained some things and walked down the mountain.
Song Tingzhi and Jiang Cheng looked at Xu Sanniang until they could no longer see her back, then they slowly walked back.
"Your mother is so nice!"
"She will be your mother from now on! You should treat her as your real mother!"
"Um."
…
Xu Sanniang hurried back all the way, the smile on her face becoming more and more unstoppable. Although she had only spoken a few words to Jiang Cheng, she had heard about the Jiang family before and had a general understanding of them. He was an obedient and sensible child.
It's over! He probably didn't tell Chengcheng about the rumors about the Jiang family that he told Tingzhi before!
Xu Sanniang suddenly remembered the rumors she had heard a while ago and had told them to her son at home. No wonder he slammed the table before he even finished listening. It turned out that there were signs of it a long time ago!
Counting the days, it’s almost the same!
The Jiang family is really no good. The old ones are no good! The young ones are no good either! Fortunately, Jiang Caiyun didn't marry here, otherwise I don't know what would happen!
Xu Sanniang was very active along the way and soon returned to the village.
"Sanniang! Where did you go to be so happy?"
Some people in the village saw Xu Sanniang's uncontrollable smile and were particularly curious. She had just been broken off from engagement a while ago, so why was she so happy?
The news that the Song family was going to marry the daughter of the Jiang family was known to both villages. Although the Song family had a father who was not in good health and had two small children to support, it did not prevent Song Tingzhi from having good conditions!
He was a good-looking man who could go hunting in the mountains. He was the one who butchered the pigs during the holidays, so meat was a must. He could also make money. As the only son in the family, everything in the Song family would belong to him. As for the two younger ones, they would earn a lot of money from the bride price when they got married.
Many families in the village want to marry their daughters or sons to him!
He had previously been engaged to someone from Taohua Village, and many people in the village were unhappy because such good conditions were being given to someone from another village. Now that he has broken off the engagement and hasn't gotten another woman, many people are starting to have second thoughts. After all, it's best to keep the money within the family!
"You'll know after a while."
Xu Sanniang walked back happily, not caring about the villagers' stares.
“That’s weird!”
The old lady shook her head and continued with her work. Just then she saw a figure coming over. It was Mrs. Qian from the village.
"Mrs. Qian! Aren't you determined to marry your second sister to Song Tingzhi? Why haven't you gone to his house to ask?"
"What's it to you! It's only a matter of time before my second sister marries him. Don't you consider the financial situation of the Song family? It's a blessing for his family if my second sister marries him!"
Mrs. Qian was carrying two buckets of water on her shoulders. She stopped when she heard someone talking to her.
"Oh! People may not like her! Besides her white spots, what else is good about your second sister?"
When the old lady heard what Mrs. Qian said, she stopped picking the vegetables in her hand and retorted.
"Get out of here, you ignorant thing! There's nothing to say to you!" After saying that, Qian left with the water on his shoulder.
The old lady was left alone in a rage.
"What kind of person is this! Don't you even look at your family's conditions?"
When Xu Sanniang returned home, her daughter had just finished preparing the meal, so she started eating.
"Mom, how is my brother?" Song Qian asked curiously when she saw that her mother's smile had not faded since she entered the house.
"Your brother is fine! Let's eat first!"
"oh."
After dinner, Xu Sanniang asked her daughter to wash the dishes, and she pulled Song Tao into the inner room to talk to him.
Xu Sanniang briefly explained today's events to Song Tao, including Jiang Cheng's family background. Song Tao expressed his understanding and said he had no objection to the two children being together. Xu Sanniang then told him to choose a good day and marry him as soon as possible.
"June 16th! It's a good day!" Song Tao flipped through the list and chose a good day.
"That's still ten days away. There's still a lot of things we haven't prepared yet! We have to hurry up these days and not let them down!"
Xu Sanniang calculated the time and realized she had a lot of things to do, so she hurried out to get some things.
"Dad, what's wrong?" Song Qian and Song Yu walked in together. Seeing their mother just coming back and walking out, they came to ask.
"It's okay, your eldest brother is getting married in a few days! Your mother will be happy!"
"Really?! Is my sister-in-law pretty?" Song Yu was very excited when he heard it.
"We'll know in a few days." Song Tao had never seen him either, but the one that Xu Sanniang and Song Tingzhi both liked should not be too bad!
